Chapter 583: Turned Again
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
"Okay, let's finish him first!"
The white-bearded old man laughed. He waved his truncheon and a glaring light enveloped him. It was getting brighter and brighter, turning him into a sun. But instead of finding the light dazzling, it looked sacred and comfortable.
"Holy Light Profound Meaning, seventh-rank!"
Lu Li was looking at him unhappily. If it weren't for him, Lu Ling wouldn't have gone through so much sufferings. He could have found her earlier and brought her back to the Northern Desert. Therefore, despite his kind looks, Lu Li didn't feel friendly toward him.
The white-bearded man had become a glaring mass. He was not clearly visible anymore. A surge of energy spread across as if there was a god trying to destroy the entire world.
At the same time, the Master of Drifting Cloud Hall made a move. From his neck, there came a purple light. Then a spring of purple color spurted out. He waved his axe, making the spring into a water dragon. It was hovering in the sky and its energy shocked many.
Quite a number of warriors from the three forces stopped their actions. Warriors of the Drifting Cloud Hall halted their moves as well. Both sides were looking at the sky, waiting for the impressive attack to happen.
"Roar~"
The two Human Sovereign Realm warriors were pushed on the ground in the Demon Trapping Formation. One old man with sinister looks in his eyes raised his head and bellowed. He had grossly offensive features. His shout contained endless sorrow and grievance.
"Now!"
Master of the Drifting Cloud Hall yelled. The white light around the white-bearded man began to come together. A ray of light was shot toward the Master of Silver Wolf Mountain.
At the same time, Master of the Drifting Cloud Hall threw away his axe which turned into a black dragon in midair. Together with the water dragon, it whooshed toward Master of Silver Wolf Mountain.
"Roar~"
Master of Silver Wolf Mountain yelled again. His eyes were filled with despair, like a lone wolf dying.
Silence fell. The world seemed to have vanished, leaving only the ray of light, the entangled two dragons of black and blue and the despair in the eyes of the Master of Silver Wolf Mountain.
"Hmm!"
It was at that time when a snort came through. A man gradually appeared in front of the Demon Trapping Formation. A small shield showed up in his hand. It was golden in color, covered with complicated patterns and mysterious flickering runes.
"Buzzing~"
All of a sudden, the golden shield blew up. The energy coming off from the shield was even more profound than that of the several Human Sovereign Realm warriors.
"Quasi Relic!"
Lu Li's pupils contracted in fear. He had a Quasi Relic himself and Ji Mengtian had one. He was familiar with characters of Quasi Relic. The glistening mysterious runes were a feature.
The situation had changed. A stranger powerful warrior had come abruptly and forced his way into the war. But Lu Ling didn't seem to be concerned. Instead, she looked happy and excited. She murmured, "Here he comes…"
"Boom!"
The holy light and two dragons of black and blue smashed against the huge golden shield. But there was no explosion. The shield glared and trembled. Following that, the two dragons collapsed. The black one changed back into an axe and flew back. The white-bearded man's holy light was torn apart as well.
"Hiss, hiss~"
Many people were gasping and looking at the huge golden shield with shock. What kind of Xuan Artifact was that? How did it take two fatal blows from two Human Sovereign Realm warriors?
"Qu Long!"
Master of Drifting Cloud Hall yelled in ferocious rage, "What is the Palace of Sun's intention? Do you want to fight against us with the three forces?"
"Hmm, hmm~"
Standing behind the shield was a middle-aged stalwart man. He presented himself from behind the shield, glared at the Master of Drifting Cloud Hall coldly as he said, "Tu Ni, I was driven out of the Palace of Suns a couple of days ago. I have joined the Silver Wolf Mountain. So, I have no further connection with the Palace of Sun. You want to kill Master of Silver Wolf Mountain, I cannot possibly stand by."
"Okay, good, nice!"
Tu Ni, Master of the Drifting Cloud Hall burst into laughter of anger. Many more from the Drifting Cloud Hall felt indignation. Leaving the Palace of Sun and joining the Silver Wolf Mountain? What a lame excuse! Not even a kid would buy it.
"Brother You!"
Tu Ni bellowed, "Since Qu Long said he has disconnected from the Palace of Sun and joined the Silver Wolf Mountain, then we don't have to be polite to him. Let's kill this rat."
"Let's do it!"
The white-bearded man responded. He flew up and circled up to Qu Long with Tu Ni from the left and right respectively.
Qu Long had the Quasi Relic. Long-range attacks couldn't hurt him so close combat was the only option.
Also, Qu Long had stopped right in front of the Demon Trapping Formation. Once the fight broke it, Master of the Silver Wolf Mountain would be let out. By then, it would be three against two. The Drifting Cloud Hall would be at a disadvantage in that case.
Lu Li was getting nervous. He had some understanding of the Demon Trapping Formation. It was difficult to be cracked from within but easier from the outside.
Could Tu Ni kill Qu Long before the formation was broken? If not, then the inevitable win would not be so inevitable…
Before he knew it, Lu Li was looking at Lu Ling again. Seeing she was as calm as ever, he felt better. But he was confused as well. How could she be so collected? Did she have other plans in her sleeve? The Drifting Cloud Hall had only two Human Sovereign Realm warriors. It was impossible to have another one out of thin air.
"Boom, boom~"
The fight continued. Tu Ni had been attacking at Qu Long from Palace of Sun. Qu Long had tried to circle around the Demon Trapping Formation while trying to smash it constantly.
Qu Long's plan was good. He could protect himself with the Quasi Relic while he concentrated on the Demon Trapping Formation. If he could crack it, Master of the Silver Wolf Mountain could be let out. Tables would be turned again. Ruthless mass slaughter was doomed to happen at the Drifting Cloud City today.
Average warriors couldn't do anything in a fight like this. Not even peak stage Noble Lord Realm warriors would be able to interfere. With Human Sovereign Realm warriors' Force Field, nobody else could get closer.
Lu Li moved toward Lu Ling a bit, thinking that he could knock her unconscious and take her away if something went wrong.
Lu Li's speed had reached a stage faster than warriors at the initial stage of the Human Sovereign Realm. The several warriors of this realm here were all at the initial stage. They would not be able to catch up with Lu Li. What was more, nobody was paying any attention to an insignificant warrior like him.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Demon Trapping Formation kept shaking. Tu Ni and the white-bearded man's attacks were stopped by the Quasi Relic shield. Qu Long was even slyer than a fox. With so many warriors from the Drifting Cloud Hall around, Tu Ni could not attack at will…
Many powerful warriors of the Drifting Cloud Hall were scared. Their eyes dimmed. Once the Demon Trapping Formation was cracked, it would be a fight of three against two. The dice had been cast. The Drifting Cloud Hall had only two Human Sovereign Realm warriors. No more reinforcement could come…
"Boom~"
Strong as the Demon Trapping Formation was, it was easily cracked from the outside. With a loud noise, the blue shield that was the Demon Trapping Formation burst open. Masters of the Silver Wolf Mountain and the Lotus Society broke free like two trapped dragons.
However, what happened next was about to take everyone aback—
After Masters of the Silver Wolf Mountain and the Lotus Society flew up, they both released their strongest attacks, on Qu Long of the Palace of Sun.
"Bang!"
Qu Long was still defending himself against the attacks from Tu Ni and the white-bearded man. While he had sensed the fatal danger behind him, he could not have time to react. He was burst open. Blood spouted out…
Everyone was stunned still.
