The Invincible Dragon Emperor
chapter-897

Two million warriors heard what the patriarch of Asmodians has said. Therefore, it was impossible to block the passage of the message. Patriarch Lei made the wise choice by shouting with a loud laugh after a while of thoughts, “Death is at hand and you still talk wildly. Messengers? They are merely some devils from a small world. I will let you know that our Grand Master has already ruined your small world and killed your messengers!”

“Boom, boom, boom!”

Not long after Patriarch Lei said his piece, the Asmodians patriarch was killed. Patriarch Lei gave him no chance to argue.

The warriors present at the scene did not think too much of it. Lu Li could kill the Asmodian Lord and could make the horrible beast that the Asmodian Lord had summoned surrender. A few messengers were nothing to be worried about.

“Sweep the battlefield and take a look around. Take apart all the formations in the altar!”

Patriarch Lei had the army spread out. The altar was the residence for generations of Asmodian Lords. There must be many Mystical Materials and treasures here. The many strange formations must be destroyed. When all the records of the Asmodians were ruined, it would be impossible for them to summon any wicked beings.

The warriors spread out to work, scoured the mountain range excitedly. At the same time, the patriarchs were gathered together gloomily.

Those patriarchs were sure that Patriarch Lei just made up lies to calm the warriors down, in case the news would cause widespread panic.

“Messengers? Barriers between worlds? In a few years? Coming for Lu Li?”

The patriarchs felt immense pressure from those few words. The barriers between worlds must not be about small worlds and even if it was small worlds, to crack the barriers would be unimaginable.

The Deserted World and the Northern Desert shared a passageway which God of Meng destroyed later. Therefore, people could not go to the Northern Desert from the Deserted World. If the future, if someone could open up the barrier in space and reach the Northern Desert from the Deserted World, then it would be astonishing.

It would take years to bring down barriers between worlds. What was more, the patriarch of Asmodians said that several such barriers had been cracked. Those messengers must be from a faraway place and their target was Lu Li. The patriarchs could tell that those messengers must be more powerful than Lu Li.

Patriarch Lei was more anxious at the thought of the Dragon Demon. He worried if the messengers were all as powerful as the Dragon Demon. If so, then the Heaven Reverse Universe would be faced with a catastrophe.

“Patriarch Huang!”

Patriarch Lei thought for a while and said, “The Eastern Land of Oceans has gained stability. I can take it over from here. Please go back with the others and let Patriarch of Law Enforcement and Grand Master know what we heard.”

Patriarch Huang nodded. His presence here bore little meaning since the Eastern Land of Oceans had calmed down. What was left to finish was to loot resources. As for the further plans for the Eastern Land of Oceans, Patriarch of Law Enforcement must make the decision. It was time to go back.

Patriarch Huang left with two patriarchs, while Patriarch Lei started to sort out affairs of the Eastern Land of Oceans. They had conquered a large piece of land, occupied many treasured locations and captured countless slaves. Many surviving Asmodians had escaped. All those matters must be settled.

…

The Demon-slaying City was peaceful. Lu Li was stable now, so the patriarchs here were not worried any longer. They had been receiving one piece of good news after another from the Eastern Land of Oceans. They believed that a complete occupation was a done deal.

The only cause of concern for Patriarch of Law Enforcement was that Lu Li was still in a coma. His appearances had recovered, and his bodily functions were performing well. Yet still, he was not awake, and his hair was still white, not turning back to black at all!

Ding Gui gave an ambiguous explanation—Lu Li had consumed too much vitality, damaging his bodily functions and soul. His hair not turning black was because some functions had been damaged permanently. As for the fact that he was still in a coma, it was because he was too weak. His soul was protecting itself and he was recovering in sleep.

“When could Lu Li wake up?”

Ding Gui was not sure. It relied on Lu Li’s own desire for survival. If his soul kept on sleeping, then he would never wake up. On the other hand, if he had a strong will to survive, he would regain consciousness soon.

Bai Xiashuang was with Lu Li every day. Bai Qiuxue and Jiang Qiling were still in the Wicked Bead. They would never come out until Lu Li woke up.

Lu Ling left the Demon-slaying City and returned to the City of Mystic Armor. She mobilized a large number of powerful warriors and troops to hunt down surviving forces of the Pavilion of Blossoms, Yaksha Race and the Life League. When Lu Li was brought back, seriously wounded, those surviving forces were itchy to make troubles. Lu Family knew about that. Even though the surviving forces never took actions, it did not stop Lu Ling from being enraged after she was informed.

Her anger caused a rain of blood and wind of foul over at the Central Plains. Many powerful warriors were on the move. Surviving forces of the Life League, Pavilion of Blossoms and Yaksha Race in hiding were located. More than a dozen of their strongholds were destroyed. The small world where the Yaksha Race was found as well.

Once the location of hiding was found out, it would not end well for the Yaksha Race. Lu Ling was never merciful for her enemies. She gathered more than a dozen Earth Immortal Realm warriors and a troop of hundreds of thousands to raid that small world.

Of the dozen Earth Immortal Realm warriors, half were from the Red Lunar, Palace of Immortal’s Inquiries and Palace of Heaven’s Roars. The majority of the troop were from the three forces also.

Those were the ones spearheaded the attack. However, after the destruction of the small world of the Yaksha Race, Lu Ling presented them with no reward. In other words, the three forces helped Lu Ling for nothing, and they did not even get funeral expenses for the deceased warriors.

Many warriors of the three forces were complaining. That being said, the three masters dared to say nothing. They understood that Lu Ling was getting back at them for their attitudes previously. They had to swallow the punishment. So long as Lu Li was still alive, they would never monkey about.

Lu Ling left the Demon-slaying City, but not Lu Zhengyang. Lu Li was his only grandson and his son was not here. Of course, he would want to take care of Lu Li.

Several days later, Patriarch Huang came back and brought with him reports of conquering the Eastern Land of Oceans. The Demon-slaying City was celebrating passionately. It was a victory for the entire human race, only second to when Emperor of Heaven Reverse defeated the alien races.

But the only piece of information was not made public. Many patriarchs did not even have access to this information. Only Patriarch of Law Enforcement and a few others were informed.

“Messengers?”

Patriarch of Law Enforcement frowned. This information took away his joy of conquering the Eastern Land of Oceans, which placed him with such worry.

“Coming down here!”

Patriarch of Law Enforcement noticed the hidden message in the Asmodians patriarch’s words. It must mean that the messengers were from a universe more powerful than the Heaven Reverse Universe, or even… from where the Asmodian Emperor was at, i.e. the Divinity!

If that was the case, even one messenger, let alone a group, could annihilate the Heaven Reverse Universe.

“He is awake. Grand Master woke up—”

Right at that moment, from a manor behind the Hall of Patriarchs came a shout. It was a patriarch that stayed there.

Patriarch of Law Enforcement stood up, delighted. His gloomy feeling had been shattered. It seemed that Lu Li had a magic power that could enable him to defeat a real immortal, should one was really coming!
