Bang, bang, bang!

Outside the Tower of Delicacy, attacks were becoming more vigorous as its glare began to die down. Now that the four alien races saw their window of opportunity to crack open the tower, they had increased their attacks.
The four alien races had been quite relaxed these day but they became more vigilant right now. They had their weapons prepared, ready to fight at any second.
Once the tower was broken, those trapped inside would try to break out of the encirclement. Leaders of the four alien races, the royal families, had given orders that no human could be allowed to run away and every human must be killed at all costs.
That was right!


No royal family disciples of the four alien races planned to come to the small battlefield originally. Yet each race had one royal disciple and their aim as Jiang Qiling. What Lu Li speculated was not wrong. The four alien races could not tolerate the development of a human chosen warrior.

Whoosh~

From the south came one of the Feather Race who whispered something to the prince wearing a crown. The prince of the Feather Race yelled something and he sent out more powerful warriors to attack.
Soon, the news spread to the other three races as well. Royal disciples of the three races each sent out their powerful warriors to increase the intensity of attacks and move faster.
Scouts of the Feather Race had found out that there was a large group of human warriors coming. They were far away and could only arrive after two or three days. But royal disciples of the four alien races would prefer no complications.
The four alien races all mobilized the most powerful of them, which made the attacks more vigorous. The tower began to tremble.

Why are they still in there?

Jiang Hu and others kept looking at the room. Lu Li and Jiang Qiling had spent nine days in there. Their only hope lied in Lu Li and Jiang Qiling. How could they remain calm when the tower was about to tumble down and no messages had come from the two?

Boom!

The tower suddenly shook. Everyone was pale from fright. They released Xuan Energy and their Bloodline marks on their necks glowed as they were ready to fight.


To their relief, the tower didn’t crack open or collapse. After a while, the door opened and Jiang Qiling walked out by herself.
She was still pale even though she had slept for days. Her looks were seedy and her steps were light. She could fall at any moment.

Lady Qi!'

A young lady from the Palace of Peaceful Heavens hurried over to help her. Jiang Hu asked with a frown,
Lady Qi, what is it?


Nothing!

Jiang Qiling forced a smile and said,
My cultivation backfired and I was hurt a bit. I am sorry but I am going to let you down.

Nobody looked happy. They could not rely on Jiang Qiling now. Jiang Hu made up his mind and said with determination,
Lady Qi, let us out. We will clear a path for you and lure the enemy away. Ask Young Master Lu to take you and go. Death is not to be regretted for me. My only wish is for you to live then I will have no regret.


Yes!

A warrior of the Qin Family nodded and said,
Let us spread out and fight to a bitter end. We must attract all the enemies’ attention so Young Master Lu can go with Lady Qi. Young Master Lu is so fast. He must be able to break out.


Okay!



The others all nodded. They were not afraid of death at this moment. Given that death was about to come, they might just as well be heroic. If they could save Jiang Qiling, at least their deaths would be worthwhile. Their families could benefit from this.
Strange beings, people were. They were afraid of death usually but when it really came to the final moment, they were ready to embrace it. They had been spending days in trepidation. Lives like that were no better than death. At the critical moment when they made the decision, they somehow felt relieved.
Jiang Qiling said nothing. She closed her eyes to sense the tower before she said,
Wait for another day. After that, the tower won’t be able to sustain any longer. If by that time Lu Li cannot come up with a way, we will do as you said.


Okay!

Everyone nodded. Then they sat down and began to cultivate Xuan Energy, to resort their spirit state to the peak, preparing for the big fight tomorrow.
Giving them a look, Jiang Qiling walked back to the small room. Lu Li was still cultivating. He didn’t notice she had been coming and going.
She sat down next to him, with such ardent affection in her eyes. She took two pellets nurturing her soul and sat there without cultivation. She just looked at him, never tired of it and never feeling enough.
As time moved on, the tower was trembling more violent and more frequently. Jiang Hu and the others stopped cultivation Xuan Energy. They sat quietly, staying alert and ready to engage at any moment.
Jiang Qiling would try to sense the Tower of Delicacy every now and then. She knew very well that the energy contained was diminishing. Not long afterwards, the tower would tumble down.
After more than half a day, Jiang Qiling walked out. She handed everyone a pellet and explained,
This is Toxin Protection Pellet. Take it and toxins of the Voodoo Race won’t be able to hurt you in the next two hours. But…be careful of their bewitched insects. The pellet is effective to toxins but not those bugs.



Taking the pellets over, they understood that they could not count on Lu Li either. The only choice for them now was to face death bravely.

Fight to our deaths!

Jiang Hu put his hand across his chest and yelled solemnly. So did others. Then they stood in absolute silence and looked at Jiang Qiling.
Jiang Hu said,
Young Lady, we are ready. Let us out any time now.


Okay!

She nodded and said,
From now on, your parents will be mine. If…I can get out.

Everyone nodded but said nothing else. Jang Qiling went back to the room. If Lu Li could not wake up, she would have to take him with her and fought to the bitter end. Energy of the Tower of Delicacy was about to run out.

Boom!

Right at that moment, the ring on Lu Li’s hand suddenly glowed as a huge coffin appeared in the room. It was so big that it got stuck. Jiang Qiling was startled.

Lu Li, what are you doing? I am almost scared to death.



She yelled. Lu Li opened his eyes and looked at her apologetically. Then he grabbed the saber on the Coffin of Dragon Emperor and pulled it out.

Buzzing!

In a glare, the saber was pulled out easily. The Coffin of Dragon King was put away into Lu Li’s ring. He stroke the blade of the sword, nodded and said,
Nice!

Jiang Qiling recognized this. She took a look and asked,
Holy Grade Xuan Artifact? Lu Li, what do you think? Is there a chance for us to get out?


Give me a moment!

Lu Li didn’t answer her question. He sat with his legs crossed and began to establish connection with the divine weapon. He poured Xuan Energy in and the saber glared brighter and brighter.
After an hour, he opened his eyes in excitement. He exhaled, stood up and asked,
Qiling, do you feel okay?

Jiang Qiling was blushing and afraid to look at his eyes. She lowered her head and said,
Yes…


Alright!

Lu Li put the divine weapon into his ring, took her hand and left the room. He glanced to the others and said,
Are you ready? If yes, go with me. I will fight a path for you. Let’s go!

Their eyes glowed when they saw how confident Lu Li was. Hope was rekindled for them. They seemed to see a door opening at hell that could lead them back to the mortal world.

Boom!

Again, the Tower of Delicacy shook. Everyone trembled along with it. A glint of coldness rose in Lu Li’s eyes as he yelled,
Jiang Qiling, send us out and then put away the Tower of Delicacy. All of you, stand on my Fate Wheel. Protect yourselves. Leave the rest… to me!
