Chapter 406: The Hag Race
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
They had come to a small world to look for Bai Qiuxue but had stumbled into a somewhat enormous world by accident!
Enormous worlds like this were few and far between since small worlds usually exit in cracks of space, which limited their sizes. There were small worlds like the one Cyan Phoenix Race was in and the one Green Dwarfs were in. Such large scale worlds were rarely seen even in the Central Plains.
Xuan Qi in those small worlds was usually profound. Green Dwarfs' small world was hardly seen in the sense that its Xuan Qi was thin. Therefore, in most cases, there were some unique treasures in the small worlds. Those treasures were rare in the Central Plains and they could be sold at a high price…
Ye Cha being so excited was because there were many treasures in the world they found. If they could control this world, they would be rich indeed.
There were 18 races in the world, most of which were not powerful. There were 5 that were strong and that had warriors as good as Noble Lord Realm humans.
Lu Li was in the territory of the Yellow Goblin Race. This race was not particularly strong in the world. Their most powerful leader was only as good as Noble Lord Realm warrior, but he had some weird tricks.
Actually…
The fact that Yellow Goblin Race could get into the small world with Green Dwarfs was because of Bai Qiuxue.
Bai Qiuxue entered this world from where the Green Dwarfs were, which enabled the Yellow Goblin Race to find the path. But the Green Dwarfs' world was so small with so little Mystical Materials and such thin Xuan Qi that the Yellow Goblin Race didn't pay much attention. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so few Yellow Goblins over there…
"So you are saying that Bai Qiuxue was not taken and she has entered this world on her own?" Lu Li's eyes glowed after Ye Cha finished his explanation.
Ye Cha nodded and said, "I think so, judging by the information I got. But I don't know where Lady Qiuxue is. At least, she is not taken by the Yellow Goblin Race."
Lu Li was relieved but he was still afraid to take any actions. After all, there were two powerful beings in the world that could compete with Human Sovereign Realm warriors.
Granted, the Titan Race might take their sides, but there was one more. Also, what if the Titan race paid them no regard and tried to kill them?
The world was the territory of those races. They, the humans, were from the outside world. For the native races here, Lu Li and the others were the aliens!
How could the Titan Race cooperate with the aliens and attack their native races for some individual interests?
This was an attractive place!
If Lu Li could gain control of this world, both he and the big families at the Northern Desert could stand to gain something. The number of warriors at the Northern Desert could rise up quickly and in dozens of years, there might be some Human Sovereign Realm warriors.
The problem was how?
Finding reinforcement?
Jiang Qiling could do quite well as reinforcement. She could call over several Human Sovereign Realm warriors easily. Then they could kill the powerful ones in the world and then divide the resources here up with the Jiang Family.
"No!"
Lu Li soon dismissed this idea. Jiang Qiling could be trusted but not the Jiang Family. Big Families valued interests. They wouldn't worry about so much about friendships or relationships. Once the Jiang Family was involved, Lu Li might lose control of the resources here, and even his emperor position of the Northern Desert.
Then should he find the Du Family instead of the Jiang Family?
On second thought, Lu Li still felt this was not a feasible way. Once Du Family learned this, Lu Li's own life might be at risk. There were enough resources here for the Du Family to take the risk and kill Lu Li.
No sharing!
Lu Li made up his mind. The bold ones were those who survived. As long as he could gain sole control of this world, both he and the Northern Desert families could develop.
He thought for a while and let all the others go except for Ye Cha. Then he asked, "Clan Leader Ye, do you really think the Titan Race will listen to the Mammoth Race?"
Ye Cha knew what was on Lu Li's mind. He gave it some serious thoughts and replied, "I am 70% sure. Titan Race is as simple-minded as the Mammoth Race. This kind of people are the easiest to manipulate. Theoretically speaking, if the Clan Leader of the Mammoth Race is here, the Clan Leader of the Titan Race should listen to him."
"Alright. I'll risk it!"
Lu Li made up his mind and said, "Go and find the exit. Teleport all the Eternal Realm warriors out to the small world with Green Dwarfs and wait for my order there. None can go back to the Northern Desert. Tell them that they must keep their mouths shut about this. Anyone who leaks any information will be killed with no questions asked."
"Ask Second Patriarch to take my ID token!"
Lu Li handed it over and continued, "Ask him to go look for Madam Yan and ask for some Mystical Materials to reach the Noble Lord Realm and then deliver them to the Clan Leader and patriarch of the Mammoth Race at once. Tell them to reach the Noble Lord Realm as soon as possible and come here."
The small world for the Cyan Phoenix Race could not be exited without reaching the Noble Lord Realm. If Lu Li wanted to take down this world, he must need help from the Mammoth Race. Therefore, before they got there, there was nothing he could do.
Ye Cha understood so he left at once.
Since the entrance was nearby, the exit to the small world with Green Dwarfs must be somewhere near here as well.
Ye Cha soon found another mud puddle. He went in and found an Inhibition Formation down there. It must be leading to the small world with Green Dwarfs.
All the Eternal Realm warriors were taken outside and only Noble Lord Realm warriors were left behind!
There were so many things that Lu Li hoped to keep from the outside world. He didn't even want Zi Huanqiao to know much. The more that were informed, the riskier it would be. Once the Central Plains learned about this, the Big Families would covet this world, which could be the end of everyone here.
Ye Cha returned after he made arrangements and asked, "What should we do now?"
"Find Bai Qiuxue!"
Lu Li answered after some thoughts, "We will sit tight. You go with your three patriarchs to look for here. If she is alive, I want to see her. If not, I want to see the body. We must take smart actions now. Otherwise, the other races will rally together and attack us."
Ye Cha thought so as well. He didn't plan on making a move, not even against the Yellow Goblin Race, which would alert the other races.
Some aliens here wouldn't catch the attention of the big races in this world. Once many powerful warriors were here and a race was destroyed, the other races would be alarmed.
Lu Li ordered that the others must wait around the mud puddle and nobody could leave.
Ming Yu, Yu Huashen, Zi Huanqiao and the others were surprised. They were curious about what information Ye Cha had gotten but Lu Li wouldn't say so nobody asked.
Second Patriarch of the Cyan Phoenix Race left. Ye Cha told the other three patriarchs some stuff to inspect and then left as well. The Cyan Phoenix Race was the race with the fastest speed in the Central Plains and they were the best scouts. The four of them were all at the Noble Lord Realm. As long as they were careful in hiding, nobody could see them.
Lu Li and the others waited quietly. There would be some Yellow Goblins appearing nearby every now and then, but Lu Li had said that they shouldn't be attacked. The Yellow Goblins could tell there were many powerful warriors here so they didn't move close. For now, both parties existed in peace.
Of course!
The sudden appearance of so many powerful warriors would cause the Yellow Goblins to take actions. Maybe their army would be here soon.
Lu Li planned to find Bai Qiuxue as soon as possible and then leave the world. He would come back and occupy it bit by bit after the Mammoth Race made a breakthrough.
One day had passed, then two and five!
There were more and more Yellow Goblins here. Zi Huanqiao sensed there were at least 1000 underground. They were not in attacking mode right now but a battle was inevitable.
On the sixth day, Ye Cha presented himself in front of Lu Li and said excitedly, "Saint Lord, I have found Lady Qiuxue. She is in a race called the Hag Race."
"You have seen her?" Lu Li was panting out of anxiousness.
"No."
Ye Cha shook his head and answered, "I took a member of the Hag Race and did some interrogation. I was told that there is a pretty girl in their race but she was taken to a prohibited area. Average members don't know about it."
"Is the Hag Race powerful? How many Noble Lord Realm do they have?"
Lu Li stood up. Ye Cha shook his head and said, "Not particularly powerful and there are only two that can compete with Noble Lord Realm warriors. But they do have some unique powers…"
"What are you waiting for?"
Lu Li didn't even hear what Ye Cha was saying. He shouted, "Gather together. Let's go kill the Hag Race and save Bai Qiuxue!"
