“Yan Hu!”

Yan Tiangang bellowed, full of wrath. The surviving residents of the Divine Imperial City felt their ears hurt. Many people shivered in fear. Yan Tiangang could not even save Yan Hu. Would Yan Tiangang be able to save them? Would today be the end of the Yan Family? Was Lu Li really the bane of the Yan Family?

“Phew, phew—”

Blazing Huo, the Deaf Taoist, Lu Renhuang, and the other Semi-God Realm warriors were relieved. Yan Tiangang’s avatar could move, but he could not protect Yan Hu. That implied that Yan Tiangang’s abilities were limited. He was not omnipotent, and there was a chance that Lu Li could win.

“Spread out!”

But Lu Li did not let his guard down. He still remembered the strong abilities of Emperor of Heaven Reverse’s avatar. With the Relic armor, Lu Li wasn’t afraid of Yan Tiangang. That being said, Lu Renhuang and the others could be killed by Yan Tiangang easily.

The Deaf Taoist and Blazing Huo did not disobey while Lu Renhuang was hesitating. Eventually, Lu Renhuang stepped back, seeing that Lu Li was determined. The other Semi-God Realm warriors had a blind trust in Lu Li. As soon as he gave the command, those warriors stepped to the sides.

“Bang, bang!”

Yan Tiangang, in a fit of fury, hacked the immortal’s body several times, trying to smash away or destroy the immortal’s body. Yan Tiangang believed that his avatar could smash away the immortal’s body. Was the immortal’s body from a mighty warrior in the Divinity? Even a super mighty warrior from the Divinity, upon death, could not leave behind such a strong body.

The Bloodvine had control of the immortal’s body and had found out more of the immortal’s body’s abilities. Even struck by Yan Tiangang for a dozen times, the immortal’s body did not step back for one bit. He stood steadily in the sky and stopped Yan Tiangang on his way.

What was more astonishing to some Semi-God Realm warriors was that such horrifying strikes that could wound the Deaf Taoist and Blazing Huo could not remove even a piece of the immortal’s body’s scale.

“Impressive!”

Many people exclaimed. Lu Li was stunned himself. Emperor Zi did not lie. His physical body was really the strongest under the Third Plane of the Divinity.

“Whoosh!”

Lu Li dashed toward Yan Tiangang quickly. He wanted to destroy the avatar. If he succeeded, the Divine Imperial City would be easily within his reach.

“Hmm!”

A glint of killing intent rose in Yan Tiangang’s eyes as Lu Li pressed forward. The former wielded a machete and hacked at Lu Li in the speed of lightning.

Lu Li could go into the Wicked Bead this instant, but he chose not to and warded off the strike by himself.

“Bang!”

With a muffled sound, Lu Li felt a strong pressure spreading. He felt his chest sting and blood almost oozed out from his mouth. Yan Tiangang was indeed ferocious. He could hurt Lu Li while the latter had the Relic armor on.

“Poof~”

Lu Li could have pushed down the blood, but he spat out a large amount of it. His face grew pale, and he let himself be smashed away for a hundred feet.

“Lu Li!”

“Lord!”

Lu Renhuang, the Deaf Taoist, and Blazing Huo shouted. Lu Renhuang, in particular, was filled with worry. Even animals knew that they needed to protect their cubs. Of course, Lu Renhuang would be concerned.

“Stay back!”

Lu Li threw a cold glance to Lu Renhuang, the Deaf Taoist, and Blazing Huo. Lu Li wielded the saber, aiming at Yan Tiangang. At the same time, Lu Li ordered Bloodvine secretly, “Blood Fairy, go and destroy the altar and statue in the Divine Imperial Castle!”

With the spiritual connection enjoyed between Blood Fairy and Lu Li, the latter could send orders directly to the former. Blood Fairy immediately flew the immortal’s body toward the north, leaving Yan Tiangang behind.

“Swish!”

Lu Li’s blood-red ray of sword light flew over. Lu Li thought he could contain Yan Tiangang’s avatar with a natural force. However, Lu Li underestimated a mighty warrior from the Divinity. Yan Tiangang’s avatar became half-transparent in the air. A blood-red ray of light went past Yan Tiangang’s avatar and could not inflict any harm.

“What?”

The immortal’s body flew toward the north of the city. Yan Tiangang was hesitating. He knew what the immortal’s body was up to. However, he had tried for a long time without being able to force back the immortal’s body. It would be hard for him to intercept the immortal’s body even if he hurried to the city north this moment.

“Charge—”

Yan Tiangang made up his mind. Lu Li just spat out some blood. He must not be that strong. It was true that Lu Li had the Relic armor on. That being said, Yan Tiangang wanted to try to kill Lu Li. If he could, then the immortal’s body would stop moving and he could finish the others easily.

Yan Tiangang decided to take the risk. Throwing a look at the city north, Yan Tiangang said, “Everyone, stop the immortal’s body!”

There were still several Semi-God Realm warriors, hundreds of Earth Immortal Realm warriors, and thousands of Human Sovereign Realm warriors, plus countless Noble Lord Realm warriors. Yan Tiangang wished he could rely on the sheer number of warriors to stall the immortal’s body, so he could have time to end Lu Li.

“Charge!”

At Yan Tiangang’s orders, the Yan Family warriors responded at once and took action followed by many others. A huge crowd of warriors dashed toward the immortal’s body. They were building a wall of people to stop the immortal’s body.

“Lu Li, go to hell!”

Yan Tiangang swung the machete in a crazed manner. Lu Li could not be careless. He used the Burning Blood skill to enhance his physical body. At the same time, he activated the Dragon Armor. Underneath the Relic armor, his skin was covered with dragon scales, which could ward off the strong energy.

“Bang, bang, bang, bang!”

Lu Li was hit by the fast-spinning machete. Every time he was struck, there would be a muffled sound. With the surges of horrifying energy, Lu Li was smashed away again and again.

However, with the Burning Blood skill and Dragon Armor, Lu Li felt better. Though every time he would be mildly injured, it was nothing in relative terms to his strong body…

“Pff—”

Every time, Lu Li would let blood ooze out from his mouth. He did so on purpose. It was not like he was bleeding from an injury. He was beating Yan Tiangang at his own game. Lu Li was stalling Yan Tiangang deliberately so that the latter would mistakenly believe that he had the chance to strike…

“Lu Li!”

Lu Renhuang was losing his mind. He almost dashed over when Lu Li gave him a look that spoke volumes. Lu Renhuang finally came to his senses at this moment. He winked at Blazing Huo, and with the others, they dashed toward the north of the city.

“Bang, bang, bang!”

A fight had broken out in the north of the city. The immortal’s body could not be stopped. He could finish one warrior in one move every time and smash several away in the process. However, with so many warriors swarming at him, the immortal’s body could not stop them within a short time. He was pressing toward the north by taking baby steps.

“What?”

Noticing that Blazing Huo and the others were moving toward the north of the city, Yan Tiangang was becoming anxious. If Blazing Huo and the others could reach the Divine Imperial Castle, then the remaining Yan Family disciples and residents of the Divine Imperial City could lose their lives soon.

What was more important was the altar and statue. If those were ruined, Yan Tiangang’s avatar would disappear.

“This isn’t right!”

Yan Tiangang turned to Lu Li at once. He noticed that while the latter looked pale and blood was still dripping at the corner of his mouth, his eyes were filled with vigor. Yan Tiangang came to the sudden realization that Lu Li was putting on an act. He was trying to destroy the altar. That was his real intention.

“Whoosh!”

The avatar flew toward the Divine Imperial Castle. Lu Li sighed. Lu Renhuang, Blazing Huo, and the Deaf Taoist acted on the strength of their own imagined cleverness. But by doing so, they had upset his plan.

The immortal’s body was close to the Divine Imperial Castle. In the time for half an incense stick to burn, the immortal’s body would have ruined the altar. However, Yan Tiangang had realized the truth sooner. Now, it was more troublesome.
