“Fwoosh~!”
“Fwoosh~!”
The jets of flames were like a water blaster.
Luo Tian did another combo.
However, this combo was different from the previous one because there was the addition of the Fire Qilin’s flame attack. Deng Huolei’s health bar was nearing the bottom; his face was completely blackened, and his clothes had been long burnt off.
He looked as miserable as miserable could be.
He no longer had that smug look of disdain he had in the beginning.
The expression had been replaced with fear.
Seeing how he had a sliver of health left, Luo Tian leaped up and shouted, “And you wanted to force me to use up all my martial skills?! You’re too weak for that!”
“Die!”
A heavy punch landed on Deng Huolei’s face.
“Aggghhhh~!” Deng Huolei shouted with eyes full of rage.
His body flew off before smashing into a boulder on the side of the road.
“Bang~!”
Brain matter and blood splattered everywhere.
He was dead!
“Ding!”
The system gave off an alert, but Luo Tian didn’t have time to bother with what kind of loot had exploded. Luo Tian swept his gaze past the area with heavy killing intent. He then ordered, “Do not spare anyone. Kill them all for me.”
Fire Qilin then charged into the crowd and started killing with arrogance.
“Run!”
“Run for your lives!”
“Luo Tian, I won’t dare to fight you ever again! We were all forced to do this! It has nothing to do with us! It’s all because of the Deng family! It was Deng Leigong who made us do this! And Old Master Deng should be bringing all his elites here soon! If you don’t run now, you won’t be able to escape afterward!”
The remaining disciples scattered and ran.
Running like crazy in order to escape.
Luo Tian didn’t make a move personally, only allowing Fire Qilin to do the dirty work.
He was very clear that these people were the advance troops, and in the rear would be the main force commanded by Old Master Deng.
He could still deal with Deng Huolei. But if it was Deng Leigong, Towering Cloud City’s number one expert? If he didn’t use a transformation card, Luo Tian felt he had no chance at all. ȑάΝổ𝔟ËṦ
Luo Tian made a thought and had Fire Qilin return to his side.
He then turned around and started running toward the Boundless Mountains.
Demonic beasts roamed freely in the Boundless Mountains. If those Bai family disciples entered the mountains and encountered demonic beasts, then he would have delayed their enemies for nothing. He had to catch up to them as soon as possible.
Luo Tian ran like his life depended on it!
Off into the distance, there was a cloud of dust rising into the sky.
Hundreds of elite disciples from the four great families were riding warhorses.
The person in front was precisely Towering Cloud City’s number one expert, Deng Leigong.
There was some blood oozing out from his chest area.
Not long ago, he was injured by Bai Qi at the Ouyang residence. He had underestimated Bai Qi’s strength.
However, he didn’t really care too much about this minor injury. After learning that Luo Tian had escaped through the north gate, he immediately gathered all the experienced people from the four great families to chase after him. He was worried that Deng Huolei would not be able to hold Luo Tian down.
Most importantly, he was very worried Luo Tian would keep living. Luo Tian would definitely become a future calamity if that were to happen, so he couldn’t allow him to stay alive.
Half an hour later.
“Patriarch!”
“Elder… Elder Deng was killed by Luo Tian.”
Those remaining disciples from the four great families were in a very wretched state. When they saw a large group of reinforcements, their expression looked like they had found their own father or something.
Deng Leigong furrowed his brow and shouted, “You bunch of useless trash!”
“Where is Luo Tian now?!”
One of the disciples replied, “I think he has already reached the Boundless Mountains.”
“What?!”
Deng Leigong’s mind sank. He was very clear about the kind of place the Boundless Mountain Range was. Once Luo Tian escapes into the mountains, being able to find him becomes extremely difficult. Moreover, the Boundless Mountain Range was too dangerous. He wouldn’t even dare to guarantee that he would come out alive after going there.
The expressions of the people from the other three great families changed.
Ouyang Lie said cautiously, “Old Master Deng, that kid is courting his own death if he enters the Boundless Mountains. The demonic beasts there are too strong. It is one of the ten forbidden places in the Central Continent, so he is certain to die if he goes in. Not to mention that he is carrying so many burdens from the Bai family. In that case, the chances of him surviving is even less likely.”
Ever since he saw Deng Leigong take out the Heavenly Soul Capturing Pill, Ouyang Lie has been especially afraid of him.
He was also very cautious of him.
Deng Leigong’s eyebrows were tightly knitted. He knew the dangers and the chances of survival even without Ouyang Lie saying it. But his intuition kept telling him that Luo Tian would never die in the Boundless Mountains. Sooner or later, that kid would come back for revenge.
However, there’s really no other choice for him to make. He could not possibly bring these people into the Boundless Mountains, and these people would not follow him voluntarily.
Deng Leigong’s expression darkened as he only had one option to take. He shouted, “Return to the city!”
The people behind him instantly relaxed because they were afraid Deng Leigong was going to make them search for the Bai family in the mountains.
His eldest son beside him whispered, “Father, that kid has the Heavenly Soul Capturing Pill. If this gets out…”
Deng Leigong stared at the Boundless Mountains in the distance and gave a cold smile, saying, “Don’t worry, if that kid doesn’t die, he’ll definitely come back for me. By then, I want him capable of coming but incapable of leaving!”
—————
Towering Cloud City, Deng family’s secret chamber.
Deng Leigong was frowning. Just prior, a disciple reported to him that Luo Tian was seen bringing the Bai family disciples into the Boundless Mountains.
His heart tightened upon learning this. When he returned home, the feeling that Luo Tian would definitely be back grew stronger. Once Luo Tian did come back, he had no idea what would happen.
However, a gleam of light flashed in Deng Leigong’s eyes. He then said to himself, “He definitely doesn’t dare to return to Towering Cloud City for the time being. With so many disciples to take care of, there is only one place he can go: across Boundless Mountains and into Boundless City. Luo Tian, you will definitely try to participate in the second round of selection for the Misty Cloud Academy!”
“If that’s the case, you will definitely go to Boundless City.”
Upon thinking up to this part, Deng Leigong smiled coldly and said, “Old Three, take 100,000 xuan coins and my personal letter to the Lord of Boundless City. He was once my junior brother, so I believe he would help out. As long as Luo Tian shows up, kill him. Don’t say a word about the Heavenly Soul Capturing Pill.”
There was another less known passageway to Boundless City.
However, this passage was more long-winded. But it would still be faster to go through the Boundless Mountain Range with a horse.
Deng Yuhuang replied, “Your child has received the order.”
Deng Leigong continued, “Old Two, Old Four, Old Five; you three bring people to the Zhang, Li, and Ouyang families. Make them our subordinate forces. If they don’t comply, you can stop being polite to them. I want to strengthen the Deng family and make us a gold level force. This way, I will have one more chip in my hand to play.”
A gold level force can gain protection from a more powerful force because they will be interested in the benefits a subordinate gold force can bring. Once a powerful force does set its eyes on them, they might become a subordinate force to them. At that time, Luo Tian will have to think twice before he makes a move against the Deng family.
Even with these preparations, Deng Leigong was still not at ease because Luo Tian gave him an inexplicable feeling. “Eldest, I will head out for a bit. You will manage the Deng family while I’m gone.”
“Father, where are you going?”
Deng Leigong’s eyes narrowed when he replied, “The Mountain Sea Devil Sect.”
