Chapter 486: Go Wherever You Go

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

The strange race of Asmodians mainly resided at the Eastern Land of Ocean. It was said that in the distant ancient times, a certain race mated with beasts, which was how Asmodians came into being. They had sinister and violent qualities, a thirst for blood and short-builds. The skills Asmodians had were of malicious nature. Even the Profound Meanings that some Asmodians mastered were of dark properties.

Before Jiang Qiling entered the small battlefield, Jiang Tianshun warned her about Asmodians, informing her that the most dangerous of the four races was not the Voodoo Race, but the Asmodians. Voodoo Race only knew how to use bewitched insects and poisons, which could be avoided with caution. The Asmodians were a different story.

The means employed by Asmodians were vicious and this was a knowledgeable race. But Jiang Tianshun didn't tell Jiang Qiling about the exact means Asmodians had. This had always been the policy of the Demon-slaying Hall.

Jiang Qiling and the others had not come to the small battlefield to brag about their achievements. They were here to put up with a desperate fight. If one could not survive here, how could one rise up in life. Without going through tests of fire and blood, how could a warrior be inspired and grow?

When Jiang Qiling saw all those Asmodians, the first thought that sprang to her mind was to run - run away, and not to engage with those Asmodians.

Lu Li opened his eyes. He had consumed almost all the elixirs. But if he could have the time for two incense sticks to burn, it would have been perfect.

Lu Li turned to the north. His facial expressions grew cold as he waved his hand and shouted, "You three run, now!"

The three young ladies were delicate. They had some battle experience but they were scared of the sight of Asmodians nonetheless. They fled right away at Lu Li's signal.

"Buzzing~"

With a white glare, Lu Li generated his clones. The more than 60 Lu Li clones flew about and rushed toward the barbarians behind him.

All the Asmodians were on the backs of barbarians. It could be that Asmodians were slow so they were trying to manipulate barbarians as their puppets. Lu Li himself flew to Jiang Qiling. His four-layered Fate Wheel span fast and he reached her at once.

"Hop up!"

Lu Li yelled. Jiang Qiling put away her Bead of Life and hopped on Lu Li's Fate Wheel. Standing next to him, she felt more relaxed. She felt she could face the end of the world if she was with Lu Li.

"Retreat and gather at our rendezvous!"

Lu Li shouted. Then he controlled his clones to charge toward the six barbarians behind him. Jiang Hu and the others threw each other a look and left.

They were slower than barbarians. On the other hand, Lu Li was faster than a warrior at the initial stage of the Human Sovereign Realm. Therefore, Jiang Hu and the others didn't insist on covering Jiang Qiling's retreat, which would actually drag Lu Li and her down.

"Gee-gee, bluff!"

One of the Asmodians put on a spook smile. Then it hopped up and stood on the head of the barbarian. Lu Li and Jiang Qiling finally had a good look of it.

It was less than five feet and bony. His neck, arms and feet were covered in black tattoos of snakes, which was horrible to the eyes.

It also had a short wand in his hand and it was familiar to Lu Li. It was similar to the one used by Ghost Snake Granny.

Lu Li asked curiously, "How come Asmodians understand our language?"

"Technically, Asmodians are descends of humans. In the ancient times, a special race came into being after humans mated with another race. That special race mated with beasts which gave birth to Asmodians. Since Asmodians enjoyed a long history, they called black white and claimed that they were the legitimate race and that humans were crossbreed. Asmodians were good learners. They can understand not only the language of humans, but also Feather Race, Voodoo Race and Barbarian Race…"

Jiang Qiling had barely finished her explanation when the wand glowed as the Asmodian yelled. Then the tattoos on his body began to move. Countless black snakes shot out toward Lu Li's clones.

"Ghost Snakes?"

Lu Li blinked his eyes in confusion. But they didn't look like Ghost Snakes which were illusions. Those ones were real, authentic vipers. Their glowing triangular eyes were terrifying.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

The black snakes rushed into Lu Li's clones and burst them open. But the snakes didn't suffer any harm and they were coming at Lu Li.

"Bang, bang, bang~"

Barbarians picked up their speed, shortening the distance between them and Lu Li and Jiang Qiling. The Asmodians hopped up to barbarians' shoulders and heads one after another, waving their wands. Their tattoos began to fly out.

Not all the tattoos were snakes. Some of them were centipedes, scorpions or bugs. After the Asmodians waved their wands, those toxic insects all rushed out. At that moment, Lu Li and Jiang Qiling thought that they had met with Voodoo Race, not the Asmodians.

"Woo-woo~"

Abruptly, the first Asmodian waved its wand and there came a gust of chilly wind from the north. In an instant, it became gloomy above and dark below. Pebbles were swept along the ground and phantom illusions flickered. Everyone thought they were in hell.

"Lu Li!"

After all was said and done, Jiang Qiling was only a young girl. She turned pale out of fear and grabbed onto Lu Li's arms, trembling.

"Hmm!"

Lu Li had a solemn look and he was cautious. Those were nothing but petty skills to stir up fear. While controlling his Fate Wheel to move back, he once again generated clones to mislead his enemies.

Cloning skill was very helpful to fleeing. As long as his real person could not be found, he could remain alive.

Barbarians were fast but not faster than Lu Li. That said, there were quite a large amount of toxic insects and his clones collapsed soon after being hit.

"Whoosh~"

All of a sudden, the ground beneath them burst open as a figure rushed out. He was holding a spear with a green glow. His eyes were red and his killing intent enveloped Lu Li and Jiang Qiling. He was fast, no slower than Lu Li at the top of his speed.

"Ah?"

Jiang Qiling was not experienced. She was already frightened and she was thrown into panic. Lu Li was scared as well. Could this one be at the Human Sovereign Realm with such a fast speed?

"Not at Human Sovereign Realm!"

Soon, Lu Li came to his senses. If this one really were, he would have activated Force Field to trap Lu Li and Jiang Qiling. This one must have some special spatial skills that could elevate his speed within a short time.

"Die—"

Lu Li yelled and his psychic power surged out, merged into the opponent's brain in the shape of a knife and pierced through.

"Ah~"

It held its head and cried in midair. Lu Li would not show mercy to his hurting enemies. He crushed this Asmodian with his Fate Wheel.

"Boom!"

It was slayed. Lu Li's Fate Wheel smashed a pit with a diameter of one feet on the hard ground.

"The rocks here are hard and yet Asmodians can travel underground. Asmodians really are strong!" Lu Li exclaimed to himself. He flew up on his Fate Wheel and moved further back.

The other Asmodians screamed in anger when they saw that one of them was killed. The one at the front waved his wand even more violently. Wind grew stronger and so was the shrill of ghosts.

"Um? The chilly wind and ghost shrills contain some soul attacks?"

Lu Li noticed that the silver dragon in his Soul Pond glowed, which alarmed him that some energy was trying to get inside his Soul Pond.

"This is shocking. This energy can influence a person's state of the mind and lead one into illusions. Once seized, one may be frightened to the point of collapsing even without being physically attacked by the Asmodians."

Lu Li had many thoughts and internal struggles, trying to decide whether he could fight against the Asmodians or not. If not, then what if more Asmodians of fast speeds quit chasing after them and go after Jiang Hu? Jiang Hu and the others would face a gloomy fate.

"Jiang Qiling, I want to kill all those Asmodians. Are you scared? If yes, I will take you away!"

In the end, Lu Li asked Jiang Qiling to decide. If she was fearful of a fight, he would not resort to rash actions, which would put her in harm's way.

Somehow, she felt emboldened by his eyes full of desire to kill. She made up her mind and said, "If you want to fight, I will go with you. I will go wherever you go, even to hell."
