The Invincible Dragon Emperor
chapter-488

Lu Li wasn't intimidated by the Asmodians behind him nor the ones jumping out from underground. To him, the biggest threat came with the vanished team leader.

In a split of a second, Lu Li had made a decision. He generated dozens clones and controlled them to go behind and under him to stall these Asmodians. At the same time, he yelled to Jiang Qiling, "Release your Soulfeast Butterflies and Bead of Life to smash at those down there."

She had grown accustomed to listening to his orders. She released her Soulfeast Butterflies and Bead of Life as he said with no hesitation.

"Whoosh, whoosh~"

From under them, the five Asmodians' tattoos began to move. Those toxic insects including vipers, centipedes and scorpions flew up. Lu Li opened his mouth and roared, "Get lost—"

The Dragon Roar didn't have much of an influence on the Asmodians but it could shake space and cause wind to spring up. After this roar came out, space began to ripple and a fierce gale slowed the toxic insects down.

While the toxic insects slowed down, the Soulfeast Butterflies weren't affected at all and they all surged into the five Asmodians' bodies. Then the Bead of Life came down hard on them and smashed them.

"As I have expected!"

At the death of the five Asmodians, the toxic insects began to flee and stopped attacking, which was a relief to Lu Li. He had predicted that this would happen but he knew that one wrong judgment could mean the end of him and Jiang Qiling.

His biggest enemy was not those five, nor those coming from behind him, but the team leader that had disappeared in midair.

"Jiang Qiliing, use your Soulfeast Butterflies on those seven!"

Lu Li used his Dragon Roar to give this order to her. His roar caused the space to tremble and induced pain in Jiang Qiling's eardrums. He closed his eyes, trying to sense the shockwaves in space using his psychic power.

"Swish, swish, swish—"

The space over Lu Li's head had a small ripple before something showed up like a ghost. He moved his spear quickly toward Lu Li's head and tried to stab him.

Lu Li had been focusing on the shockwaves in space and yet this man appeared right above his head and attacked in such a fast way that Lu Li had no time to dodge.

At that critical moment, Lu Li remained composed. His psychic power transformed into a sharp knife and stabbed at its head. At the same time, Lu Li's hidden hand became Blood Claw as he reached for the spear.

"Buzzing~"

At that moment, vipers in it moved and whooshed toward Lu Li, covering up the space around them in a black blur. Lu Li would be bitten to death if he didn't do anything.

However…

If Lu Li switched his target to the vipers, he wouldn't be able to protect himself from the spear. The end would be the same for him, death.

Jiang Qiling had just released her Soulfeast Butterflies on the seven Asmodians, which had slowed down her reaction. She stared at the dozens vipers whooshing down, scared and at a complete loss.

"Little White!"

Lu Li knew that he could not rely on Jiang Qiling now. Even if he asked her to do something, she wouldn't be able to stop dozens of vipers. His only hope was Little White now.

Little White should have been sleeping as it had bathed in the divine light together with Jiang Qiling and was bestowed with the gift of divine energy. But it woke up at Lu Li's roar or it had felt incoming danger and woke up in time.

In a white blur, Little White flew out. It emitted powerful qi and the fur on its mane were standing on end. It bellowed at the vipers coming down from the sky.

"Whoosh, whoosh~"

Those vipers' speeds were impeded. Next, they began to run away to all directions in terror. Having no more concerns of vipers, Lu Li crushed the spear with his Blood Claw.

"Bang!"

The spear was no Holy Grade Xuan Artifact. It broke into pieces in Lu Li's Blood Claw which reached further up and crushed its head. A rain of blood began to fall.

"Ah~"

Jiang Qiling moved away to avoid the rain of blood but Lu Li was covered in blood and pounded flesh, which gave him a hideous look.

"Phew, phew!"

Lu Li exhaled. If Little White hadn't woken up, he would really be in fatal danger. This team leader of Asmodians was powerful. He could travel in void and possessed such a fast speed.

"Lu Li, are you okay? I am sorry. I am useless…"

Jiang Qiling hurried over, ashamed. She froze and did nothing when Lu Li was in a life-threatening situation, which made her feel guilty.

"It's okay. It's not your fault!"

Lu Li grinned. It was understandable that Jiang Qiling could not react fast enough in critical times like this as she was only a young lady from a wealthy household who lacked experience in bloody battles and enough mental preparedness. If it were other young ladies, they might have collapsed to the ground.

"Kill them!"

The most difficult one of the Asmodians to deal with was slayed and the rest seven was not threat. Lu Li stared at them furiously and said, "Use your Bead of Life to kill six of them. Leave one alive for me!"

Those Asmodians' souls were seized by the Soulfeast Butterflies, which rendered them incapable to move. Jiang Qiling vented her guilt on those Asmodians and smashed at them with her Bead of Life forcefully.

She still had some anger unvented after those Asmodians died. She came back after smashing two barbarians to death.

Lu Li took out a saber, rushed over and cut at the remaining Asmodian's hands and feet. Lu Li used the back of the saber to break its limbs, tied him up in vines and dragged him away.

Lu Li also told Jiang Qiling to keep using Soulfeast Butterflies on it to prevent him from waking up. She used her Bead of Life to kill all the other four barbarians, which would be calculated into her points.

"Whoosh~"

The last barbarian was slayed. Lu Li flew away with Jiang Qiling, dragging it with them with no delay.

His roars could lure more alien race warriors over. He must leave the scene soon to be safe.

Flying for an hour, they arrived at the cave where Jiang Hu and the others had been guarding. Though happy to see Jiang Qiling and Lu Li back, they blushed at the sight of Lu Li covered in blood. They were relieved after using their psychic power to make sure that those blood didn't come from Lu Li.

"Lady Qi, Young Master Lu, you were fighting the Asmodians?" Jiang Hu asked.

Jiang Qiling answered with pride, "We killed all the Asmodians. Aren't we good?"

"All of the Asmodians?"

Jiang Hu and the others looked at each other in surprise. How did the two kill so many Asmodians? How come they weren't hurt?

Lu Li was in no mood to talk about it. He waved his hand and said, "Go into the cave. We must leave first."

He handed the Asmodian to Jiang Hu who took out some green chains, the Demon Trapping Chains owned by major families. These chains could contain the Xuan Energy in it. Without Xuan Energy, no skills could be used no matter how many there were.

Of course, Jiang Hu knocked the Asmodian out, for fear that he might do something behind their back.

They moved on in silence. Exiting the cave, they ran toward another direction for six hours. During that time, they killed three more barbarians with ease they met along the way and hurried forward.

After half a day, they stopped, not because they spotted enemies but humans. They encountered another team, the leaders of which were two young ladies with a thousand charms.

Ji Mengtian and Die Feiyu.
