The Invincible Dragon Emperor

Chapter 877: Integration Failed

The Asmodian Lord wouldn’t even mind if he were to lose the entire Eastern Land of Oceans. He had the absolute power and anyone against him will be punished with death.

He had exerted a great effort just to summon the Dragon Demon. He would allow for nothing to go amiss. He could crush any large-scale riot with force, let alone some small ones. All the Asmodians must lower their heads to him because he had the power.

What disappointed Lu Li was that the Asmodian Lord never left the forbidden land. He didn’t even send someone to crack down on the rebels. He did not mind the two provinces declaring independence, let alone merely disobeying him.

His utmost priority was to nurture the Dragon Demon. Every sacrifice would be worthwhile once this beast grew up.

He did not worry if the riot at the Eastern Land of Oceans would lead to the death of hundreds of millions. When the Dragon Demon was mature, he could bring it to breach the Demon-slaying City and then conquer the Great Land with the Asmodians.

With the Asmodians’ reproduction abilities, in less than a hundred years, the Asmodians population would be doubled. That would be enough for them to conquer the Heaven Reverse Universe.

The Eastern Land of Oceans was with limited resources, but a large population. They never had enough support for powerful warriors. Only by taking the Great Land could the Asmodians grow and revive their ancient glory.

…

The Asmodian Lord’s orders were given out. Instead of scaring the Asmodians to settle down, his orders actually enraged them.

The spread of rumors was growing more violently. The Asmodians believed that the Asmodian Lord was their god and a leader that could protect them.

However, at the moment, not only had the Asmodian Lord stopped protecting them, he actually had turned cruel, which was an indirect proof that—the Asmodian Lord was being controlled by the Dragon Demon. The Asmodian Lord was no longer their god or their protector.

The other chiefs were frightened. The Asmodian Lord was powerful. If he was really under the Dragon Demon’s control, then they were for sure faced with the doom of the Eastern Land of Oceans.

What was more, the Asmodian Lord was inside the forbidden land at the moment. When last time the Dragon Demon appeared, it was then the Asmodian Lord invited an avatar of the Asmodian Emperor from the forbidden land. That was how the Dragon Demon was brought under control.

For this time, the Asmodian Lord was in the forbidden land and the Dragon Demon was in there as well. None of the other Asmodians had their Asmodian Lord’s ability. They did not know how to summon the Asmodian Emperor. The powerful Asmodians were at a loss.

The chiefs sent messages back and forth. With Lu Li’s two soul slaves’ deliberate actions, most of the chiefs had reached a consensus—they would refuse delivering young boys and girls so that the Asmodian Lord would have to come out to talk to them. then, they would send powerful warriors to the forbidden land to take a look, confirming if the Dragon Demon really had taken control of the Asmodian Lord and the other Asmodians in the Bai Jing City.

If the answer was yes, then the Dragon Demon must be slain. But if not, they would convert back to the Asmodian Lord’s side. It was unlikely that the Asmodian Lord would kill every chief.

The forces sent out messengers to the Bai Jing City to invite the Asmodian Lord to explain the matter. They wanted to see that the Asmodian Lord was being controlled by the Dragon Demon or not. The gathering point was at the Du Bian City.

The Asmodian Lord was burning with rage when he learned the information. This bunch of imbeciles was so full of themselves and they were going to sabotage his grand cause. But he did know that he must come out this time. After all, if the forces did not give him the children, the Dragon Demon would be without food.

The Asmodian Lord did not think too much of it. He had thought that the defeat and the request for so many young boys and girls had made them unhappy. Of course, he had some suspicions but never realized that it was Lu Li that was behind this plot…

He had a message sent, saying that he would be arriving at the Du Bian City in five days. He told all the chiefs that had questions to gather over there and that he would kill anyone that failed to show up.

“The Asmodian Lord is taking actions?”

Lu Li was about to reach the Bai Jing City now. The information Chuan Pu gave him was delightful. When the Asmodian Lord left, Lu Li would have a chance to slay the Dragon Demon. However, if the Asmodian Lord stayed and teamed up with the Dragon Demon, then Lu Li believed he would be defeated.

As a matter of fact…

He was not confident about his fight against the Dragon Demon, either. He had finished a big diagram, but his abilities were not improved.

It was not because the big diagram itself did not work. It was because… he could not integrate the 15 small components seamlessly. Without combining the 15 small components into one, they were still independent from each other.

“Five days, I have five more days. I must think of a way to combine them together.”

Lu Li murdered and then went back into the Wicked Bead. He told Ye Cha to press forward and found a place to hide outside the Bai Jing City. He would come out when the five days were over.

“How is it?”

Bai Qiuxue asked when Lu Li came in. He gave a simple answer and then went back to cultivation at once. He had little time. Not a second was to be lost.

He had learned all 15 small components, and all were engraved into his Bead of Life. He had enhanced every one of them with divine energy. He could combine the first 14 together, but not the last one.

It was as if there was a crack and there was always something missing, which bothered Lu Li. It was impossible for him to press the components together by force.

Like a puzzle with 15 pieces that should fit together perfectly well, when the puzzle was taken apart, the one last piece could not fit. Lu Li did not know what to do with it…

Time flies by. Five days were gone quickly. Lu Li had thought of hundreds of ways, but the integration could not be finished. He opened his eyes, his mind at a loss.

“Alas..”

Lu Li sighed heavily. Jiang Qiling and Bai Qiuxue noticed his state of mind. They asked him out of concern. He merely gave a forced smile as a reply but did not say much. He only mentioned that he had run into a hitch in cultivation and it was time for him to go out and take a look.

Lu Li went out of the Wicked Bead. Ye Cha was hiding in a mountain outside the Bai Jing City. Lu Li turned to Chuan Pu and asked, “How is it going in the city. Has the Asmodian Lord left yet?”

“I don’t know. I have heard nothing.”

Chuan Pu said, shaking his head. Lu Li frowned. He gave another order, “Go and take a look in the city. Lie low. Don’t expose yourself.”

It would be too dangerous for Ye Cha to go into the city. After all, the city was full of powerful Asmodians. No matter how he disguised, Ye Cha was not an Asmodian.

Chuan Pu came back after six hours. He reported excitedly, “My lord, the Asmodian Lord has left for the Du Bian City. He left an hour ago. Many in the city saw him teleporting away.”

“Okay!”

Lu Li was relieved now that the Asmodian Lord was gone. After a moment, Lu Li said, “Go back to the city and take this jade talisman with you. If the Asmodian Lord is coming back, break it, to let me know. I will go and deal with the Dragon Demon.”

Even though the big diagram was yet to be integrated, Lu Li did not have time. It was a rare chance. He had more than 10 Earth Immortal Realm warriors with him. He believed that by working together, they definitely could kill a beast.

“Yes, my lord!”

Chuan Pu was filled with excitement. When the Dragon Demon was killed, Lu Li would confront the Asmodian Lord. It was unlikely that Lu Li could control the entire Asmodian race. He would have to have a representative. The new Asmodian Lord would either be him or his father. Either way, the Chuan Family would stand to gain.

“Let’s go~”

After Chuan Pu left, Lu Li waved Ye Cha over and dashed to the altar at the north of the city quickly.
