Chapter 531: Thane
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
Lu Li hasted forward as fast as he could.
Even so, dozens of Asmodians caught up. The Asmodians had a unique ability which could increase their speed in a short span of time. The dozens after him were clearly the more powerful ones.
Lu Li dared not to go further after he flew for 30 miles. Once the other human warriors found out what was happening, Jiang Qiling might order them to launch an attack for fear that something would occur to Lu Li. Such action would cost many lives.
Prince Naka of the Asmodians was not among the dozens. Clearly, Naka was afraid of dying in Lu Li’s hands as well. Lu Li generated clones once again. Instead of running away, he made a dash toward the dozens Asmodians.
“Buzzing~”
A streak of gentle breeze whisked them away. Lu Li enveloped the dozens of Asmodians with soul attacks all at once.
“Eh? Four of them have protections over their souls!”
Lu Li realized that there were four he could not get his golden needles of psychic power into, which was upsetting. If he merely attacked the rest, the four would take actions against him, which might end his life.
However, if he didn’t attack at all, he would have to run. The Asmodians who were struck by his soul attacks would come back to their senses soon, by that time he wouldn’t be able to kill any one of them.
“Little White, get ready!”
Lu Li murmured to Little White. He had to take the risk. He drew his divine weapon of Dragon King and cut at four or five Asmodians, beheading four of them.
The four Asmodians with soul protection treasures managed to locate where Lu Li really was. Glint of killing intent rose in their eyes as their bodies glowed in dark. They sped up and rushed towards Lu Li.
“Woo, woo~”
One of the Asmodians began to wave its wand. It darkened right away and the surroundings were crammed with shadows of ghosts. There were constant spooky noises as well. Some strange powers were trying to surge into Lu Li’s Soul Pond.
This was a method unique to the Asmodians, which contained some soul attacks to confuse people’s minds. The silver dragon mark on Lu Li’s Soul Pond began to glow as it protected his soul. Therefore, those powers could not enter his Soul Pond.
“Hoy!”
Lu Li once again wielded his saber and another four Asmodians were deceased. Two Asmodians’ toxic spears were reaching out to Lu Li. Both spears were glowing and were traveling at a fast speed.
Lu Li could only focus on one Asmodian when his enemies were fast and attacking him from both sides. Worse, some of them even had treasures to protect their souls. Lu Li’s psychic power morphed into more than 10 knives and stabbed at the Asmodian on the right. He hacked its head with his saber as well.
In the meantime, he yelled, “Little White, take care of this side!”
“Squeak, squeak~”
Little White chirped casually. After it swung out of Lu Li’s sleeve, it rushed on in a black blur. It was black because Little White’s skin was still burnt and its white fur hadn’t grown out yet.
“What is that thing?”
On the left, one Asmodian saw a streak of black blur. Out of instinct, the Asmodian wielded its spear and hacked at it. With some sparks spreading out, the spear came in contact with Little White’s body. It was as if the spear had stuck a piece of iron slate.
“Squeak, squeak~”
Little White climbed up the spear and bit at the Asmodian’s wrist. Little White was biting so fast that in the time for merely one breath, that Asmodian’s hand had been reduced to bones. The Asmodian didn’t even have time to feel the pain yet.
“Ah~”
That Asmodian began to howl. It swung its hand, trying to get rid of Little White. Given that the hand only had bones, the Asmodian almost fainted from the pain. By the time it came to its senses, Little White had climbed up to its neck and began biting as well.
“Little White, nicely done!”
Lu Li yelled in relief. What worried him the most was Little White’s defense. Now he could put his mind at ease to see that the spear couldn’t stab into Little White.
At the moment, Little White’s defense was at a horrifying level after being struck by divine thunderbolts for seven days and nights and being transformed by divine energy. On top of that, Little White was ferocious in attacks and fast in speed. Hence, Little White was strong all-round and it might not be weaker than a Beast King.
“Die—”
While Little White was taking care of its side of the fight, Lu Li’s knife of psychic power stabbed into the soul protection treasure of the Asmodian. The Asmodian stood still for one moment when Lu Li hacked down with his saber and cut the Asmodian’s head into pieces.
“Hiss, hiss~”
There were two other Asmodians by his side and they gasped at the scene. They were hesitating, losing courage to charge at Lu Li.
“I will kill you!”
Having no further concern, Lu Li pointed his saber at another powerful Asmodian and released soul attacks once again.
“Squeak, squeak~”
Little White was excited to gain praise from Lu Li. It began to dash to another Asmodian. For Little White, those Asmodians were nothing different from low level Xuan Beasts such that Little White could kill them with ease.
“Hoy!”
Swinging his divine weapon of Dragon King, Lu Li chopped at another Asmodian’s head. Right at that moment, he felt a fluctuation in the space behind him. Then, a spear stabbed at him. A nip in the air was felt by Lu Li who sensed the warning of danger in his soul when faced with such strong surge of killing intent.
“Blood Claw!”
Lu Li snorted while his right hand turned into Blood Claw. He grabbed at the spear and crushed that toxic spear into pieces. He extend his Blood Claw further and crushed the head of the Asmodian that was probing him.
“Boom~”
With the divine weapon of Dragon King in his other hand, he hacked at the powerful Asmodian in front of him. He was relieved now. Controlling his Fate Wheel to fly quickly, he began to slaughter the dozen Asmodians that had their souls seized.
As of that moment…
Lu Li and Little White had killed two powerful Asmodians who had treasures protecting their souls. It all happened within the time for only a few breaths. The major force of Asmodians were still at the distance. Even Prince Naka who was at the front was still three miles away.
“Whoosh, whoosh~”
More and more Asmodians were getting closer. Naka stopped about a mile away and ordered the Asmodians to surround Lu Li in a tight ring to kill him.
Lu Li paid no attention and just let the Asmodians encircle him as they wished. It would be utterly easy for him to break out of the encirclement for he could kill his way out. What was more, Little White could help him. He was confident to defeat the army, thus it was unnecessary for him to run.
“Little White, be careful!”
Lu Li hacked several Asmodians to death and spoke to Little White who was making a dash to the Asmodian army. Little White raised its head confidently and chirped for a bit. What Lu Li witnessed next was Little White hopping from one Asmodian to another and the opponent’s neck spilled out blood as the Asmodian collapsed to the ground.
Every now and then, Little White would be struck by some wands or spears but every time there were only some sparks or Little White would be smashed away with no injury. Little White’s defense was so horrifying that the Asmodians couldn’t hurt it even one bit.
“Beast King?”
Naka saw how every time Little White made a move there must be one Asomdian bitten to death. Naka’s expressions changed. Only a Beast King could have such strong abilities. However, there were no Beast King qi and energy in Little White. Beast Kings’ qi and energy were so intimidating that they could roar from more than 10 miles away and people would be terrified.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
Lu Li continued to sweep with his saber. The first dozens of Asmodians who rushed out had already been chopped to death. Lu Li generated dozens of clones again while he dashed towards Little White.
“Kill him! Kill this human. I will grant anyone with a position of thane if you can kill him!”
Naka yelled. Lu Li was so young and yet his abilities were already terrifying. Along with that, he had a freaky beast. If Lu Li was allowed to grow and develop, he would become a nightmare for the four races.
“Thane?”
The Asmodians became excited and feverish on hearing Naka’s words. An Asmodian thane was similar to a master of a region at the Central Plains. Anyone that could become a thane would accumulate endless resources and make their families rich and powerful at the Eastern Land of Oceans.
“Charge! Kill him! Kill him!”
The two to three thousand Asmodians rushed toward Lu Li dauntingly. Fresh forces continually came forward to take the place of those who had pushed ahead.
