Yan Hu’s words threw a wet blanket on many people. On the other hand, Lu Li remained calm while he sneered inside.
Yan Hu was taking advantage of the fact that people generally did not know about the Divinity. He was trying to intimidate those who were there, including Lu Li, with some nonsense.
Lu Li had to reply now that Yan Hu had made his points. This could be a chance for Lu Li to demoralize the Yan Family. Lu Li cleared his throat so that everyone would pay attention to him. Then he began. “Yan Hu, you are the new leader of the Yan Family, right? Do you know that there is a list in the Divinity? Do you know Yan Tiangang’s rank?”
There was a black shield outside the Divine Imperial City. While those outside could not see into the city, Lu Li’s voice could come across.
The higher-ups in the Yan Family were confused as to what Lu Li intended to achieve by asking this question. They actually did not know about the Divinity, only that Yan Tiangang seemed to be having a good life there.
Seeing that many warriors of the Yan Family and affiliated families were looking at him, Yan Hu would hate to show the white feather. He replied, “How can I not know about the list? Our forefather is far-famed. He is a well-renowned, powerful warrior in the Southern Divinity.”
“Ha, ha, ha!”
Lu Li burst into laughter and did not sugarcoat the ridicule. “Your forefather is nothing in the Southern Divinity. Don’t you know how to glorify your forefather? You don’t know his rank? Then let me tell you. Your forefather ranks after eighty thousand warriors and Emperor of Heaven Reverse’s place is around seventy thousand. Anyone that is among the top one hundred thousand can be called a mighty warrior in the Divinity,” he said with contempt.
“And... if anyone wants to become a super mighty warrior, one has to be among the top ten thousand. How many years has it been since your forefather ascended to the Divinity? He can only rank below the eighty thousand. To join the top ten thousand and become a super mighty warrior, it will take him at least one million years. Do you really believe that your forefather is famous in the Southern Divinity? He is just a patriarch at a township Black Dragon Mansion. In total, there are over one thousand patriarchs in the Black Dragon Mansion and over four hundred in the township. Your forefather is among the bottom 10. Who do you think you can intimidate?”
Lu Li used the Dragon Roar to amplify his voice. His words could be heard in an area with a radius of hundreds of miles. Many people in the Divine Imperial City felt their ears ringing.
As a matter of fact, Lu Li made up some of the things he just said. For example, he did not know the number of patriarchs. But he wagered that Yan Hu did not know, either.
Yan Tiangang was only around the eighty thousand rank on that list. He should not be in a high position in the Black Dragon Mansion. That was why Lu Li had the courage to make things up, and he trusted that Yan Hu could not argue with him on this front.
“What~”
Lu Li’s words were so convincing that they raised a hue. Even people inside the Divine Imperial City were discussing about it.
Yan Hu and some patriarchs used psychic power to check the city. They were annoyed and felt they should have activated sound isolation so that Lu Li’s words could not come across.
Of course, at this point, Yan Hu could not admit that he was inferior. While biting his teeth, he said, “Ha, such a punk. What do you know? How much do you know about the Divinity? You just heard some rumors from Emperor of Heaven Reverse. How can you have the courage to talk nonsense here? Throughout generations, the Yan Family Patriarchs can communicate with our forefather, and we can learn from him. What I told you was something I heard from our forefather not long ago. It is the truth. If you are so stuck in your ways, then wait for revenge when our forefather returns.”
Yan Hu decided to continue to blend bluff with intimidation. Those Semi-God Realm warriors out there would not dare to take the debt. What if Yan Tiangang really returned? Those warriors might not leave, but they would not devote their full strength either. The Divine Imperial City was strong indeed. However, there could be a chance to break it when so many people pulled their wisdom together.
“Ha, ha, ha!”
Lu Li laughed again. Many people in deep thoughts turned their attention to him. With derision, Lu Li continued. “Actually, I do know more about the Divinity than you. I am young but twice I have destroyed avatars of God of Wings. I worked with God of Barbarians and God of Voodoo to fight against the allied force of the nine universes. We fought against the avatar of your forefather as well. I once talked with Emperor of Heaven Reverse for a long time, and I can say that I know the Divinity as if it was the palm of my hand. I even know that your forefather is a womanizer, and he raped hundreds of ladies in the Black Dragon Mansion. Many were not happy with him. Maybe, someday, he will anger those leaders and be executed.”
“Stop it!”
Before Yan Hu could say anything, Lu Li let the Relic armor show up and took out the Relic weapon. While pointing it at the Divine Imperial City, he shouted, “Yan Hu, take a look. What are they? Those are the Relic weapon and armor of the Yan Family. Yan Zhen is gone. Why are you making a futile effort at deathbed? I am giving you a chance. Open the Divine Imperial City and surrender. I promise that you will stay alive. But if we have to break into the city, we will kill everyone in there, every single one!”
Lu Li continued, “People in the city, listen up! Anyone that can help me open up the city will be forgiven of all sins. I can even give that person the entire Divine Imperial Universe as a reward. If I break that promise, I will die a tragic death. I can take an oath.”
“What!”
As soon as Lu Li finished his words, the city descended into confusion. Yan Hu and some other higher-ups felt chills down their spine.
Inside the city were not only powerful warriors of the Yan Family but also those of the affiliated families as well. If they were to work together in sneaking up and taking away the control jade talisman, then the consequences would be horrifying...
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~”
Some of the Yan Family Semi-God Realm warriors moved closer to Yan Hu and used psychic power to scan the city as if they were faced with imminent danger. Lu Li’s offer was too enticing. The Divine Imperial Universe was the most prosperous one, and who would not be interested?
The actions of the Yan Family higher-ups offended the leaders of many affiliated families. The latter felt hurt because they were not trusted. Though they did not have the intention to sneak up and take away the control at first, some of them were starting to think about doing that after being provoked by the Yan Family...
“Attack!”
Lu Li waved his hand. “I will reward the Divine Imperial Universe to the family of anyone that can open up the Divine Imperial City. I promise.”
“Attack!”
Blazing Huo shouted. Countless pyro lotuses came out and dashed toward the Divine Imperial City. When Blazing Huo took action, the other warriors from the Huo Family and the Hippocrene Universe sprang into action as well.
“Roar, roar!”
The Deaf Taoist changed form. He never did so in front of the public before. Now that he had become Lu Li’s spirit beast and his true identity had been revealed, he no longer had such concerns. He took the shape of an enormous beast and smashed the stone column at the Divine Imperial City.
“Attack!”
The Chen Family warriors bellowed. The other warriors did not stand by. Lu Li was behind them, watching. Anyone, who offended him, would be killed at once.
“They have started. Run!”
Not for away from there, the two tribe chiefs were greatly stunned by their various attacks. The two did not care how many were still inside the tribes and left quickly with the elders.
There were so many powerful warriors. Any small impact could cost the tribal people’s lives.
“Boom, boom, boom!”
After hearing the loud noise coming from the Divine Imperial City, the two tribe chiefs looked back in terror. Would the city that they regarded as invincible stand the attacks from so many powerful warriors?
