Ludie didn’t give Lu Luo a chance to refuse; he had already ascended to the sky, blocking the Nightmare Demon’s path.
Seeing the resolute Ludie, Lu Luo bowed his head.
It wasn’t until Qi Xinzhu put her hand on Lu Luo’s shoulder that he slowly nodded.
"I understand."
BOOM!
The red mist and Netherfla collided in the sky. The zenith of the Red and White Castle exploded with a bang, and the red clouds and Netherfla mixed to form an energy vortex that shot straight into the sky.
Everything around was being drawn into this vortex, incinerated!
The few candidates who had co to attend the wedding ceremony fled the castle in a panic. They glanced at the towering Fourth Wall, then looked back at the Red and White Castle, which had already beco a hopeless situation.
"Let’s go. Saving even one more is an accomplishnt."
"Yeah, Lu Luo, you should go too. Even though we were enemies just now, having more people at a ti like this increases our chances!"
"Let’s go; if we don’t leave now, we really won’t be able to."
After comforting Lu Luo, these people all ran towards the edge of the high wall and then leaped off.
They were all strong, so there was little chance of dying from the fall.
But if they stayed on top of the high wall, with the speed at which the Netherfla was burning, it was only a matter of ti before they died.
Lu Luo, looking at the burning castle, stood up again.
He already had too many people counting on him; he couldn’t stop, especially not because of Ludie.
Ludie was right; he had to keep running forward until he was unstoppable!
The revitalized Lu Luo grabbed Qi Xinzhu.
"Qi Xinzhu!"
"I’m here!"
"Take Lu Xiaotian with you, let’s go!"
"Alright!"
Qi Xinzhu acted swiftly, as Lu Xiaotian was still fixated on the Nightmare Castle.
Qi Xinzhu picked her up, and Da Tian didn’t resist.
On the other side, Lu Luo turned to Gu Fangyi and the others.
"Brother Gu!"
"Coming!"
The tacit understanding between the two n had long passed the need for many words. Just a glance was enough for them to comprehend each other’s thoughts!
Gu Fangyi let go of Tong ng’s hand and ran straight toward Lu Luo, not lingering for a second!
"Gu Fangyi!"
Tong ng tried to catch Gu Fangyi, for he was still of great use to them.
But Gu Fangyi’s response was very straightforward as he raised both middle fingers.
"Scram!"
Lu Luo picked up Qi Xinzhu, who was holding Da Tian, and then grabbed Gu Fangyi’s arm, rushing toward the back of the Red and White Castle!
Standing at the top of the high wall, Lu Luo was once again blocked by soone!
It was Chen Mo! This guy, he really was annoying!
"Lu Luo, our business is not finished yet!"
Qi Xinzhu looked sowhat confusedly at the man, who seed to be Brother Chen Mo.
"Brother Chen Mo?"
Chen Mo looked at Qi Xinzhu; only among the Believers of Light would they refer to each other as brothers and sisters.
Chen Mo was first puzzled, then filled with reluctance and anger.
Qi Xinzhu was recognized by the Church as the Saintess, so of course, Chen Mo knew of her identity.
The hesitation was because Qi Xinzhu, dressed in red and looking radiant, appeared quite different from her usual purity.
"Lu Luo, even though you already have Her Holiness the Saintess, why did you still entangle with Han Shiyu! You don’t understand what love is at all!"
This person says you don’t understand love.
"I know."
Qi Xinzhu is sneaking glances at you.
"I know that too, but now’s not the ti to explain."
Lu Luo slowly stepped back, nodding slightly at Gu Fangyi on the side.
"Brother Gu, go ahead!"
"I understand."
Just as he finished speaking, Gu Fangyi actually jumped right off in front of Lu Luo.
Just as Lu Luo was feeling astonished, a feather appeared behind Gu Fangyi and gradually turned into a pair of green wings.
"Brother Gu’s Exotic Species form, huh! I feel like out of all of us, I’m the only one who still looks like a normal person."
"Lu Luo, do you need to leave? I can take Da Tian and go first."
Qi Xinzhu took the initiative to ask. Normally, Lu Luo would certainly have let her leave, but for so reason, this ti, he didn’t.
"No need. n mature. I can’t always have my woman running away! Moreover, this fellow in front of isn’t going to take up too much of my ti, right, Lu Xiaotian?"
Lu Luo turned to Lu Xiaotian, but at this mont, she no longer had her previous lively deanor.
Her eyes were sowhat vacant and confused, not knowing whether it was because of Qiu Guling or because of Ludie!
Yes, not only the Nightmare Demon and Ludie, but Qiu Guling also hadn’t co out from the Netherfla.
Facing Lu Luo’s question, Lu Xiaotian responded very slowly, lifting her head.
"Huh?"
"You alright, Da Tian?"
Seeing Lu Xiaotian like this, Qi Xinzhu didn’t know what to say.
The decision on how to deal with Lu Xiaotian’s identity and situation had to be made by Lu Luo.
But after all, the two of them had been together for so long, and feelings had developed over ti.
"I... I’m fine!"
"Qi Xinzhu, take good care of her, I’ll be back soon!"
Chen Mo on the other side had already lowered his body, with several tails extending from behind him.
As Lu Luo looked at Chen Mo again, his personal attributes had already completely changed.
[Chen Mo, Fourth Tier Believer of Light, Fourth Tier animal species - Fire Fox, ability: Holy Radiance, Sequence A - Wind Lord. Attributes: Strength 60, Agility 125, Constitution 44]
"You’ve indeed beco much stronger than before, but is that the reason you dare to confront ?"
"Lu Luo, you have no idea how powerful the combination of human and Exotic Species strength can be. I won’t let you go back to Han Shiyu!"
Fangs, claws, at this mont, Chen Mo truly looked like a hybrid of an animal species and a human.
But as for the combination of human and Exotic Species strength, isn’t it just attributes plus a cultivation technique?
Watching Chen Mo charge at him, Lu Luo had a strange expression on his face.
With ti pressing, he wouldn’t hold back or hesitate this ti and imdiately drew Fenrir.
Steam and lightning began to intertwine rapidly.
Thunder Breath, a flash!
SLASH!
Chen Mo stared in horror at his arms, now severed, his detached hands still spinning in mid-air!
He couldn’t understand why, even after his transformation into an Exotic Species and such a great increase in strength, he was still defeated by Lu Luo.
And it was a thorough and miserable defeat at that!
"Why? Why is this happening?"
"Because I am Lu Luo!"
Just as Lu Luo gripped the greatsword, intent on releasing his emotions and killing Chen Mo thoroughly, countless black blades blocked his path.
CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!
When Lu Luo looked carefully, he realized they weren’t blades at all, but nurous strands of hair!
Lu Luo didn’t stop because of the sudden appearance of the hair; his sword blade continued to be sharp, unstoppable!
A thousand strands, ten thousand strands, a hundred thousand strands!
But in the end, Lu Luo’s sword blade still stopped in front of the opponent.
Countless strands of hair had completely entwined the sword blade, and even with Lu Luo’s power at the ti, he was held in a deadlock!
Looking at the long, dark hair, Lu Luo’s face took on a grave expression.
"Black Domain Witch - Qin Wanyu!"
At this mont, Qin Wanyu was dressed in a black and red evening gown, attire that was presumably ant for attending the wedding ceremony.
Unfortunately, she didn’t show up!
In the original plan, she was supposed to be Lu Luo’s bride!
But for so reason, at the last minute, the mastermind suddenly changed their mind, making way for Lu Luo and Qi Xinzhu to be together.
This made Qin Wanyu quite dissatisfied, but she did not have the right to question it.
"Long ti no see, Lu Luo."
Lu Luo’s blade in his hand gradually tightened, and for a mont, he said nothing further.
It’s this woman who kidnapped Little Qi! You’re not going to go easy on her just because she’s an old fla, are you?
"Your choice of words... it’s a bit problematic."
Fenrir suddenly split, and Lu Luo bit the right blade, his left hand gripping the left blade!
Three swords spinning in unison, creating a large whirlpool.
Strands of Qin Wanyu’s hair snapped rapidly. Facing such an entangling enemy, wielding multiple blades certainly had a better effect than using a single sword!
Qin Wanyu was astonished. The Lu Luo of the past had been so weak, but the Lu Luo of today had beco so powerful.
This is the Lu Luo she liked the most!
Qin Wanyu looked at Lu Luo with a sowhat dazed expression and couldn’t help but say, "Lu Luo, if I hadn’t turned into an Exotic Species that day, would we have been together?"
"No!"
Lu Luo’s voice was firm and resolute. An enemy was an enemy, and there might have been countless ’what ifs’ between him and Qin Wanyu.
But now things were different; Qi Xinzhu was already his woman, and protecting his own woman was sothing a man should do.
Qin Wanyu had hard Qi Xinzhu, and that was sothing Lu Luo would never forgive!
No matter the reason, harm was harm!
WHIZ!
Wielding three blades simultaneously, Lu Luo shattered the hair around him, and three whirlwinds burst forth at the sa ti!
Penetrating Sword Qi flew straight at Qin Wanyu, truly without a hint of hesitation!
The expression on Qin Wanyu’s face beca one of despair.
However, her despair quickly turned into a cold smile.
"It seems I really have no chance left, huh!"
CLANG! CLINK! CLINK!
Lu Luo’s Sword Qi was easily deflected by two black cat’s paws. They belonged to Tong Yuan, the Black Cat, one of the San Tong.
At that mont, Tong Yuan extended her tongue, adorned with barbs, and licked her cat’s paws.
Her gaze towards Lu Luo was like that of a predator eyeing its prey.
"I’ve been wanting to have a go at you for a while now, Lu Luo!"
Lu Luo, looking at Tong Yuan, his expression grew increasingly serious. The strength of this cat demon was unknown, but in terms of attributes, especially strength and agility, she was definitely on par with a Sixth Tier.
Even compared with himself, she was overwhelmingly stronger!
Even if he engaged his Fourth Gear and added Thunder Breath, he might not be as fast or as strong as her.
She was a formidable opponent!
What was even more terrifying was that aside from Tong Yuan, Tong ng and Tong Yan also appeared in front of Qin Wanyu, the three of them together blocking Lu Luo’s path.
"Black Cat, Green Peacock, White Fox! You really are a varied bunch, aren’t you!"
While Lu Luo was taunting the other party, he was also observing the abilities of the three of them.
The attributes of Tong ng and Tong Yan were not visible; they likely had the ability to hide so information about themselves. From the combined positions of these three female Lords, it was clear that the Black Cat was at the forefront, the Green Peacock second, and the White Fox at the rear. It was thus possible to ascertain the close-combat prowess of these three female Lords.
Although the Four Great Lords were very powerful, Lu Luo did not retreat at this ti.
Many tis, he no longer needed to.
If the opponent was strong, he had quite a few tricks up his sleeve as well! If worse ca to worst, he could summon the Nightmare Centipede and Nightmare Servants to clash head-on.
Steam, Fourth Gear!
The steam emanating from Lu Luo tousled the surrounding strands of hair. With him against four, the battle was about to erupt!
At that mont, a huge pillar from the castle above ca crashing down.
BOOM!
The pillar fell between Lu Luo and Tong Yuan, the rolling Netherfla on it burning all the surrounding hair to ashes.
Netherfla was indeed the best weapon against hair. It was only now that Lu Luo rembered he also had Netherfla, just not in a large quantity.
However, the shattered pillar and Netherfla had completely separated the two parties.
The distance and current environnt did not allow for the battle to continue between them.
The Netherfla was now in a violent state, and the drifting red fog also began to grow increasingly eerie.
Tong Yuan retracted her claws, while Lu Luo also sheathed his sword.
The two of them looked at each other from afar, neither continuing the fight.
Lu Luo turned to Qi Xinzhu and said, "We need to go. If we don’t leave now, there will be trouble."
BOOM!
Another fragnt of stone fell beside the two, the splashing Netherfla and dirt even scorched Qi Xinzhu’s clothes.
Fortunately, Lu Luo was able to absorb the scattered Netherfla, ensuring his own safety and Qi Xinzhu’s.
"Lu Xiaotian, no matter what, I promised Ludie I’d take care of you. So, co with !"
Lu Xiaotian nodded silently, giving one last glance back at the Red and White Castle.
She spoke in a very inexplicable tone, whispering, "Finally leaving this place. From now on, I’m going to live a good life!"
After murmuring these words, Lu Xiaotian jumped onto Lu Luo’s back and proactively clasped his neck.
"You carry , Lu Luo!"
"All right! Qi Xinzhu, let’s go."
"Okay!"
Lu Luo, holding Qi Xinzhu and carrying Lu Xiaotian on his back, leaped directly off the Fourth Wall!
Lu Luo, who used to be able to run on sheer cliffs with his own abilities, now had greatly improved Tiers and attributes.
So even though the walls of the high wall were very slippery, and he was carrying one adult and one child, it didn’t affect him.
Moreover, when it ca ti to land, he could use the Jet Belt and Qi He to cushion the impact.
For Lu Luo now, height was no longer a threat!
...
Elsewhere, the castle’s buildings continued to collapse, and the power of Netherfla drained away all the vitality of the place, not sparing even that of the rocks.
Stones devoid of vitality were no longer solid, crumbling and breaking like gray dust.
The once magnificent Red and White Castle was thus dood!
Tong Yan, Tong ng, and Tong Yuan stood at the entrance of the castle, silently watching the scene before them.
In their eyes, there erged sothing resembling reluctance.
For the Red and White Castle, all three had uncommon affection.
Even though the emotions of Exotic Species were not as rich as humans’, at the Lord level, they had begun to develop so of the emotions typical of humans.
Tong ng turned to look at Qin Wanyu.
"Let’s go, there’s no longer any reason to stay."
Qin Wanyu’s gaze shifted away from the direction where Lu Luo had left, and then she tidied her hair.
She looked at everything before her with a sense of wistfulness, then turned to the Fourth Ring.
"I never imagined that there would co a day when I would return to the Fourth Ring. Fate really is elusive! Let’s go, our master’s mission is not yet complete. Up next, we need to start living in the Fourth Ring with a reasonable identity!"
...
BOOM!
Lu Luo landed heavily on the ground.
Without pause, he started running at full speed with Qi Xinzhu and Lu Xiaotian.
The high wall behind them began to fracture, but thankfully, Lu Luo was swift enough to avoid the collapsing section of the wall.
Once they reached a relatively safe area, Lu Luo turned his head and saw that there were still bodies of Hunters and Exotic Species around them.
It seed the Fourth Ring had truly experienced many battles of utter despair.
Looking back at the sky.
The Netherfla and crimson mist converged into a vortex that stretched to the heavens, with more and more creatures being torn and swallowed by its power!
Staring at the vortex of energy, sothing indescribable tinged Lu Luo’s heart.
"Lu Luo, stop looking."
The speaker was Lu Xiaotian.
"What’s wrong?"
Lu Luo was sowhat puzzled.
"Don’t look anymore, I have sothing for you!"
"What is it?"
"This!"
Lu Xiaotian spoke as she pulled a black... heart from her pocket!
