889 14.165 Last Violet Star The Lu Brothers
On the other hand, the flare that Bai Lili had lighted could be seen from a distance while Yun Huaxia, Bai Qiyin, and the others were drawing close to the Eastern Citys boundaries.?r?ewe????. ???
BOOOM! BOOM!
The flare was seen by Yun Huaxia and the others. A white flare was far too noticeable against the crimson sky. The Bai Clan instantly recognized whose flare that was when they spotted a Snowflakes insignia.
Lili is still alive, Bai Qiyin cried, White Snowflakes, The Symbol of the Royal Hei Clan! He was overcome with joy and relief.
Also, Bai Yuyan and Xue Wuyue were overjoyed. Their own daughter was safe. They couldnt ask for more than to know she is still alive.
Zhi Yang suddenly declared, There are two demon auras approaching that way. One is a high-ranking devil, while the latter is a little weaker than the first. Is one of them the one Lord Bai and Madam Bai had battled before?
Bai Yuyan turned on his Heavenly Eyes and scanned the city from afar, saying, Let me inspect it.
The fact that the white hood Demon is not one of the two auras Zhi Yang had discovered gives him relief.
Sigh! It wasnt him. I dont know the high-ranking devil as it is my first time seeing him. The little devil on the other hand everyone knows him. He is Jin Baihua. Bai Yuyan said.
.....
Bai Qiyin exclaimed, JIN. BAI. HUA! Why is it that bas tsk! That lunatic! He becomes a devil. Doesnt that mean he is the reason why the barrier breaks? We were just a.s.suming at first but... to think it was really him. AHua! You cant show pity towards him anymore. He is the reason why this invasion is happening.
I know. Yiner, dont worry. I wont be soft-hearted towards him anymore. He had long crossed the line of what can be forgiven and what couldnt be. Yun Huaxia said as his face looked serious and a bit p.i.s.sed.
How many had perished due to the invasion? How many once human-inhabited areas had been polluted? How is blood able to be spilled? How many people had pa.s.sed away? The breach in the wall between the two realms is solely to blame for the misery of humanity. The tranquility that existed in the Mortal Realm has been shattered by Jin Baihua. Now that things have developed in this way, he cannot be pardoned.
Calm down. Lets go and save people first. We still need to catch up with Xue Yueguang and Fan Yanyu in the South, Bai Yuyan said to Yun Huaxia as he patted him on the back.
Un. I understand, Father Yun. Yun Huaxia was comforted by Bai Yuyans words. They cant waste time lamenting, for every second wasted life was being ripped apart.
Lets go to the East City and save as many as we can.
At the South City...
In contrast to the other city, this one turned out to be the worst. Only one structure, the main one, survived the destruction of the whole city. Demons that sneak within the sect to attack were responsible for destroying the formation surrounding it.
This time, the devils were prepared. They were aware that the defensive formations used by the Great Sects in the Mortal Realm were all modeled on those developed by Hei Anjing in the Lan Zhuayun Sect. From the outside, it would be impossible to destroy this formation since it is of eternal quality, yet on the inside, it is incredibly frail. As long as one destroyed the eye of the formation, it would deactivate and would no longer be useful.
The demons learned from their error after failing to utterly destroy the Bai Lengshui Sect and Jin Tiangui Sect. The Lu Weifeng Sects communication orb and the center of the defensive configuration were both destroyed by them this time as they once again infiltrated the sect covertly. They succeeded in doing so, killing everyone in the Southern City in the process.
Only a few cultivators were still alive and hiding in the Sect Masters residence. Lu Er was a little wary. Around the main mansion, where he and his older brother reside, he also set up a second, smaller defensive structure. The demons were unable to destroy the formation in his home since the core of it had always been in his hands. The Lu Weifeng sects final sanctuary is this mansion. There were survivors within the mansion, but most of them were dying from their injuries, which were deadly. Several people have lost a portion of their limbs, have disfigurements, and are even having trouble breathing.
There were at most fifty men in the area, and among these individuals was a group that Lu Yi had personally led. Lu Yi himself had recently lost his left arm and appeared frail. Lu Er, on the other hand, doesnt fare much better; members of their sect and clans encircled him and stopped his qi from s.h.i.+fting. The formation encircling the mansion would vanish the instant he lost his qi. He is after all the only qi source the formation core possesses.
Lu Er doesnt appear that great because he has been using his qi for days. He was barely holding on and had long since ceased speaking in general. Lu Yi looked back to the time when their parents were still living as he stared at his younger brother. They were free from pain and anxiety. Like nothing at all could possibly harm them.
Lu Yi had a.s.sumed responsibility for taking care of his younger brother after their parents pa.s.sed away. He had always treated Lu Er with sternness to hone his personality because there were tougher things ahead of them. He is kind from the inside out, and many people wanted to use his only flaw against him because of it.
However, who would have thought that this youngster would transform as soon as he met Bai Wuan? He started taking his responsibilities seriously and training enough to avoid being bullied outside, even though he hasnt fully matured. All of this is because the Young Lord of the Bai Family gave him a lecture.
Although Bai Wuan, the Young Lord of the Bai Family, did not come from the Bai Lengshui Sect in a direct lineage, he was treated with even more respect by those who did. At first, Lu Yi thought that things werent simple and that this young lord was especially special
Unexpected things transpired between Bai Wuan and his younger brother. He was somewhat taken aback when he read the account of the incident. Lu Er may have come across Bai Wuan, who was instructing Bai Qiyin. Under the watchful eye of Bai Wuan, the young master of the Bai Family was forced to complete the training, which the majority of Bai Qiyins age could barely complete.
That day, Bai Qiyin was invited over by Lu Er to play outside with him. Only to see Bai Wuan train him to the point where he could barely move and lay on the ground, breathing heavily.
Lu Er asked, Brother Wuan, why are you training Qiqi so much? He doesnt need to get too strong after all you, Uncle Bai, and Aunt Xue are still around. You can protect him right?
Such a childish question what others in the area had thought. Even Bai Qiyin looked a bit angered by the words Lu Er had just mentioned.
Bai Qiyin bellowed, Shut up. I am not as talented as my gege. It is right for me to train this hard and I should be thankful that gege is here to supervise me!
Eh... But they can protect you, cant they not? retorted Lu Er.
Sigh~
Qiqi, rest for a while, Bai Wuan said, Lu w.a.n.g I ask you. Do you think your elder brother can protect you forever? Think about what happened to your parents. Didnt they just disappear one day? Abruptly and unpredictably. How are you? He would be able to protect you forever. Havent you ever thought of protecting him yourself? You two only have each other after all.
Lu Er was unable to speak as a result of Bai Wuans words. The reality that he is trying to ignore is being whispered in his ears by Bai Wuans slightly icy voice as if he were being hypnotized. Lu Er didnt know how he got home that day. But when he got to his own place, he saw his brother in his office, surrounded by elders, from a distance.
The small mountains of papers stacked on his tables, the blackness under his eyes that indicated his lack of sleep, and the bloodshot eyes that indicated his exhaustion. Lu Yi doesnt look like the strong person in his memories. Lu Er only realized at that point that his older brother is similar to him. A typical individual who encounters difficulties, who exerts themselves for the benefit of his familywhich is himselfand who also experiences exhaustion.
That day, Lu Er began to pay attention to matters pertaining to the Lu Weifeng Sect. His cultivation skill is lower than that of his older brother, but his mind is sharper than the others. He had to get used to the clans work for a week before he could take over the sect, which took half a year.
As an excuse for letting Lu Er rest, Lu Yi sent Lu Er to the Lan Zhuayun Sect for exchange studies. Since Lu Er took over problems that required brainpower to solve and left Lu Yi to compete with strength, the Sect had improved. The Lu Weifeng Sect moves in accordance with the decisions made by Lu Yi and Lu Er, the two heirs.
Lu Er a.s.sumed more authority within the Sect over time. Without someone holding the reins, the clan as a whole would cease to exist. Being able to control it required not only strength but also the ability to manipulate things and ensure that everything was in working order. Lu Yi was made for activities that make use of his intelligence. Lu Yi lost more money than he made from his investment when he took over the sects internal affairs.
Therefore, when Lu Er a.s.sumed command of the clans affairs, which necessitated the use of intelligence, he had a greater number of issues to resolve and a greater number of items to create that would benefit their sect. Lu Yi quickly came to the conclusion that his younger brother had fully matured to the point where he could defend even himself, his elder brother.
Right now, seeing Lu Er put his line to protect him and the remnants of the sect made Lu Yi feel a bit useless. But had already made a decision in his heart.
The thoughts of Lu Yi, As long as my younger brother lives in the end everything is worth it.
Lu Yi stood up unsteadily and approached his younger brother. He sat in front of him making the latter notice his presence openly.
Lu Er weakly calls, Dage?
Are you alright? asked Lu Yi worriedly.
Giving his elder brother a weak smile, Lu Er replied, Hehe~ Dont worry, dage. I can still hold on.
Give me the core of the formation. I will do it for you for half a day. Go to sleep. Lu Yi said as he ran his qi and took the core of the formation in Lu Ers hand.
After Lu Yi took over, the formation shook a little, but it immediately settled down. Seeing that things had stabilized, Lu Er finally fainted and fell asleep in his brothers warm embrace.
D-Dage...
Lu Yi says, Someone. Please put Lu Er on the bed to rest.
The direct disciple of Lu Yi and Lu Er, Lu Yier moved forward and said, Master, please let me bring the little master to rest.
Take good care of your little master. Can you do that Yier? asked Lu Yi.
The young disciple, slightly perplexed, nods his head in agreement as his master gently pa.s.ses his little master in his arms. He watched as his master gave his little master a kiss on the forehead and gave him one as well. A rare yet warm smile appeared on Lu Yis face.
Lu Yi whispered, I will leave him in your care from now on.
Little Yier left the hall with his little master surrounded by a few elders of their sect. Most of these elders were the youngest among the batch of seniors and he noticed that the corner of their eyes was red and was m.u.f.fling the sound coming out of their mouths. Lu Yier took a last glance at his master. The sight of his Masters smiling face lasted in his mind the longest.
