Chapter 584: Reversed Once More
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
It was so messed-up that even Lu Li couldn't figure out what was going on!
The Drifting Cloud Hall and the three forces were two opposing sides. The Palace of Sun took an on-looker attitude from the onset and had been intended to crack down on the Drifting Cloud Hall. When the war started, Masters of the Silver Wolf Mountain and Lotus Society were trapped by the Demon Trapping Formation. On the verge of their death, they were saved by a Human Sovereign Realm warrior from the Palace of Sun.
Theoretically speaking—the three forces should be on the same side with the Palace of Sun.
If so, how come when the Masters of the Silver Wolf Mountain and Lotus Society were saved, they murdered Qu Long from the Palace of Sun, instead of attacking Master of the Drifting Cloud Hall?
Were they ungrateful or out of their minds?
Many people's jaws dropped. They looked at Qu Long being torn apart in astonishment. Warriors from both the Drifting Cloud Hall and the three forces were stunned and confused.
"Well—"
Lu Li turned to Lu Ling suddenly and saw a smile in her eyes. Somehow, he knew better.
He had been wondering why did the Masters of the Silver Wolf Mountain and Lotus Society so foolishly rush into the plaza to get themselves trapped.
It was until then did he realize that this whole thing was a set-up. Masters of the Silver Wolf Mountain and Lotus Society had deliberately stepped into the trap. Their goal was to kill warriors from the Palace of Sun!
In other words—the Drifting Cloud Hall and the three forces were on the same side. The four of them had put on a show together so as to cooperate and tally against the Palace of Sun!
The answer Lu Li arrived at made himself shocked. The plan was so grand that it was past his imagination. If Lu Ling was the one behind the plan, she would be more than incredible…
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~"
From the distant came two men. Lu Li was alarmed and so was everyone. From the north, two Human Sovereign Realm warriors came flying by. One of them yelled from afar, "Qu Long!"
"Hu Lang, are you crazy? Why did you kill Qu Long?"
The other strong man in a golden armor shouted with disbelief. Qu Long had rescued them. Why did they kill him? This was unacceptable.
"Hmm!"
Master of the Silver Wolf Mountain said with a sneer, "Master Qu Yang, don't you understand? We are in this with Tu Ni, ha, ha, ha!"
"What~"
The answer was met with a chorus of reaction around the plaza. There were more than six million warriors from the Drifting Cloud Hall and the three forces and yet none of them could believe what they had heard. The war had lasted for some time and many had deceased. Now the Master of Silver Wolf Mountain said they were on the same side? Was all of this just a show?
"Charge—"
Tu Ni, Master of the Silver Wolf Mountain, wasted no more breath. After he shouted, he took the lead and dashed toward the two Human Sovereign Realm warriors. The other three Human Sovereign Realm warriors didn't hesitate. They dashed on and began their vicious attack at the two Human Sovereign Realm warriors from the Palace of Sun.
On the ground, warriors from the three forces and the Drifting Cloud Hall were all lost. They had ceased their fights, not knowing what to do other than stare at the fight feeble-mindedly.
Things were too complicated. Someone even wanted to flee right away…
"Ha, ha, ha, such a lively scene. I will not hide any longer. Let us have fun together~"
From the mountain in the north, an old men flew up and joined in the fight. His target was also the two Human Sovereign Realm warriors of the Palace of Sun. The three forces had three Human Sovereign Realm warriors altogether and now they had all come forward.
It was five against two. Even though Master of Palace of Sun had entered the middle stage of the Human Sovereign Realm, but it wouldn't affect the final outcome. If no further surprises should ensue, all the three Human Sovereign Realm warriors from the Palace of Sun would be slayed today.
"The Clouds Plains is the chess board and all the forces and Human Sovereign Realm warriors are nothing but chess pieces."
Lu Li exclaimed. The war was marvelous. Situation had changed for several rounds. Never did he expect to see an ending like this.
Lu Li finally understood why Lu Ling had stayed so calm when the Masters of the Silver Wolf Mountain and Lotus Society rushed into the city and when Qu Long of the Palace of Sun showed up.
Everything fell within her plan. Every chess piece was moving according to her thoughts. She would never be flurried or scared.
"We will talk after the war!"
Lu Li remembered Lu Ling's words. He felt strongly about them at the moment. The war was dear to Lu Ling's heart. She had poured so much efforts and had been devising the strategy for such a long time that it was impossible that she could allow Lu Li to affect her in any way.
"After this, the Clouds Plains will not be the same."
Lu Li looked at the two Human Sovereign Realm warriors from the Palace of Sun being surrounded by the other five. The two had a difficult time and they would be slayed at any minute now. Lu Li sighed.
After all Human Sovereign Realm warriors of the Palace of Sun died, the Drifting Cloud Hall would become the most powerful force with no doubt.
Lu Li was wondering how the three forces began to work with the Drifting Cloud Hall. Wasn't the two parties sharing a deep-rooted hatred? How come their cooperation started so easily?
What was more!
When the Palace of Sun was wiped out and the Drifting Cloud Hall came into power, the three forces would still be inferior to the Drifting Cloud Hall. They could be allocated some territories and interests but lion share would be taken by the Drifting Cloud Hall. Were the three forces so generous that they would work for others?
"Boom~"
All of a sudden, a castle located in the remote areas of the city collapsed, which had caught a lot of attention. Now that the fight on the ground had stopped, something that caused a castle to collapse could hardly escape attention.
"Don't kill me, don't. I am a disciple from the Ji Family of the Samsara Palace. You cannot kill me…"
A man suddenly flew up from the castle. He was on a fifth-layered Fate Wheel. His blue hair stood out. While running away, he was yelling. His frightened voice was loud.
However, he had barely made to midair when he was cut in half by someone in the castle.
"Eh? Go and have a look. You must take down the murderer!"
For the first time, the calmness in Lu Ling's eyes changed. Lu Li's expressions changed as well when he heard the name of Samsara Place. There was a distinct whiff of conspiracy.
With the several Human Sovereign Realm warriors fighting in midair, nobody else dared to make a move now. What was more, when that man yelled he was a disciple of the Ji Family of the Samsara Palace, he was still killed in public.
Something was wrong. Lu Li would never believe that there was no conspiracy.
He looked at Lu Ling who happened to turn to him as well. Both of them felt something fishy.
Several patriarchs had flown over, trying to take down the murderer. The Drifting Cloud Hall would not take the blame for this. Otherwise, the Samsara Palace would have an official reason to interfere.
"Buzzing~"
Before the patriarchs could make it back, space over the Drifting Cloud Hall began to tremble. Then a black-robed man showed up. His qi raged across the city. He was 10 times more powerful than the Master of Palace of Sun.
"Earth Immortal!"
Lu Ling murmured. She began to lose hope.
Lu Li put on a mocking smile. Just as he thought he smelled conspiracy, it had emerged. He didn't even have to put a lot of thought into that. If this Earth Immortal Realm warrior wasn't from the Samsara Palace, Lu Li could eat his divine weapon of Dragon King.
"How dare you!"
The Earth Immortal Realm warrior showed up in midair glared at the halved blue-haired young man. He shouted in rage, "How dare you kill a young master of the Ji Family? We don't care about the conflicts at the Clouds Plains. But now that you have killed a disciple of the Ji Family, all of you will have to keep him company."
"All of us?"
Lu Li grew more indignant. The Earth Immortal Realm warrior was trying to silence all of them. If he could slay all, even if the matter was learned back at the Central Plains, there would be lack of witness.
Everything was easy to understand now.
Palace of Sun must have been colliding with the Samsara Palace. The Earth Immortal Realm warrior must have been observing the fight somewhere nearby. When he saw that the two Human Sovereign Realm warriors from the Palace of Sun were about to be killed, he had forced his way in by coming up with a lame scheme.
The situation had been reversed once again.
