Chapter 440: Fish in the Net
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
Lu Li stayed in the tornado at the area of demons, flying tailwind. There were many scouts nearby but they were all well-hidden.
There was an Iron-armored Ship nearby with only one person aboard, Ye Cha.
The other patriarchs of the Cyan Phoenix Race intended to come along but Lu Li refused. Ye Cha could be as fast as a Human Sovereign Realm, but the other patriarchs were much slower. Being here would only lead them to death.
Lu Li had been trying to gain more insight of his Profound Meaning. He sat on his Fate Wheel, like a meditating monk. He had several jade talismans in his hand and one of them just broke.
Lu Li opened his eyes to take a look and then threw a glance to Ye Cha on the Iron-armored Ship.
Ye Cha tensed up at Lu Li's glance. He began to send his psychic power into the lake at once.
"Whoosh!"
After a while, he felt he hadn't done enough. He dived into the lake, sat down with his legs crossed, and tried to sense the surroundings.
His psychic power was weaker than Song Qi's. Song Qi might be able to detect him before he could find Song Qi. That being said, Ye Cha could sense the movement of the water. Song Qi would definitely go underwater. Any movement of the lake would inform Ye Cha that Song Qi was coming.
Lu Li became nervous as well. There was a Human Sovereign Realm warrior coming to him. One careless move could lead to the instant death of him and Ye Cha.
He closed his eyes once again, not to comprehend the Profound Meaning, but to sense the turbulence in the air.
Lu Li made himself a bait to lure Song Qi into the small world. If Lu Li himself could not get into the small world in time and was stopped by Song Qi's Force Field, then everything was over.
Time moved on. The Heaven Prison City was not far away from the area of demons. Song Qi was fast. Once he was close enough to the area of demons, he slowed down and began to search for Lu Li with his psychic power.
Gradually, he was closer and closer to the tornado. Finally, he found Ye Cha and then Lu Li in the tornado.
"Lu Li!"
A glint of utter coldness appeared in his eyes. The killing intent and horrifying qi and energy spread out uncontrollably. His psychic power was so strong that he could find Lu Li even when he was wearing Illusions Mask. Song Qi was sure that Lu Li had no mask on.
"Buzzing~"
Ye Cha and Lu Li opened their eyes at the same time. Ye Cha sensed the movement of the water and Lu Li sensed the killing intent.
"Whoosh~"
Without any hesitation, they dived into the bottom of the lake. Lu Li crushed a jade talisman in his hand. The hidden scouts rushed into the water and three Eternal Realm warriors locked their eyes on Song Qi.
"Let's see how far you can run."
Song Qi could not control his killing intent from raging out. He didn't even consider whether there would be other Human Sovereign Realm warriors lurking around. He would kill Lu Li at all expense.
"Whoosh!"
The scouts released their Xuan Energy and the three Eternal Realm warriors used their Bloodline Skills. A patriarch of the Yu Family shot his dragons of fire at Song Qi.
"Get lost!"
Song Qi waved his hand in rage and released several streaks of Xuan Energy that grounded some scouts. With a glare, an intangible Force Field appeared that froze the three Eternal Realm warrior underwater. With another wave of his hand, Song Qi killed the three as well.
There were more scouts coming but Song Qi could not waste more time. Ye Cha and Lu Li had already gone underwater towards a swirl. Song Qi had probed into it and found the swirl was bottomless. It might be connected with a small world. Song Qi could not let Ye Cha and Lu Li go now.
He sped up, and in the time for just two blinks, he had reached the swirl. Lu Li and Ye Cha had already gone into the swirl and Song Qi could no longer sense their presence.
"Where do you want to go?"
Song Qi snorted and rushed to the swirl. He believed that since Lu Li had just gone in, he would not have time to destroy the tunnel. Lu Li might destroy it after Song Li went in. As long as he could kill Lu Li, he wouldn't mind staying in the small world for the rest of his life.
"Eh?"
After a flash of white light, Song Qi found himself in a world of green. He met with some green fog that blocked his views. He also found that his psychic power could only reach as far as 300 feet. He was surrounded by green fog and the breath of it made him feel ill.
"Toxins!"
Song Qi was alarmed. This little amount of toxins wouldn't do any damage to him but it could stop his psychic power. Lu Li could take the chance to run away.
Actually, it was a kind of Formation that was bought with 10 million Xuan Crystals from the chamber of commerce of the Pavilion of Delicacy. Madam Yan had planned this for Lu Li and Ye Cha to have enough time to reach the entrance to the Deserted World. Otherwise, the bait that was Lu Li would be dead.
Lu Li and Ye Cha ran to the entrance at the top of their speed. They believed that Song Qi could find the tunnel in no time and then follow them in.
Song Qi had run past the fog area and he began to search with his psychic power instantly. But he did not find Lu Li or Ye Cha so he had to wander around and continue to search.
Soon, he found a warrior of the Bai Family who, obviously, was planted by Lu Li. Song Qi whooshed over, pinched the warrior's throat and began the interrogation.
It went well. The warrior told Song Qi everything. He said that this was a small world of Green Dwarfs and it was not big. There was a tunnel here connecting to another small world where there might be some places to hide…
Song Qi killed him after questioning and went to the entrance to the Deserted World as fast as he could. He believed that Lu Li was not an idiot that would stay in the small world. It was too small for him to hide a long time.
As he expected…
When Song Qi arrived at the entrance, he detected the fluctuation in the Teleportation Formation down below. Lu Li and Ye Cha had just vanished. There were two warriors guarding here, trying to activate two other Formations.
"Whoosh!"
Song Qi killed the two directly and then rushed into the Teleportation Formation.
He was annoyed by the fact that he was surrounded by toxic fogs again and he could not use his psychic power…
By the time he was free from the fog, he had lost track of Lu Li and Ye Cha once again. There were some peculiar races around him, all of which were Hags.
"Whoosh, whoosh!"
Countless skulls came at him. Many Hags' eyes glared as they tried to confuse Song Qi. He was enraged and began a massacre. Without too many movements, just a wave of his hands, he had killed Hags after Hags.
The Hags were terrified and fled to all directions. Song Qi didn't chase after them. He caught one Hag to ask about Lu Li and the Deserted World.
The flying Hag spoke in ancient language. Song Qi came from the Central Plains where the Song Family had been in existence for thousands of years so he understood some ancient language.
He learned from the flying Hag that the devil Lu Li was in a good relationship with a major race here called the Stellar Race and he must have gone there to take refuge…
The Hag said that Lu Li had killed many Hags so he was a devil and he was Hag Race's mortal enemy.
Song Qi bought it. He didn't believe the major race in such a small world would be strong and there wouldn't be any powerful warriors…
He caught another Hag to double check the information, and he was given the same answer. He questioned the Hag about the direction to the Stellar Race and went ahead.
After Song Qi left, Bai Qiuxue and Chee-ker went out from a mountain nearby. They were relieved.
Song Qi was lured to the Stellar Race. What was going to happen from now on could not be controlled by them.
The outcome would be up to fate.
