Now that he was sure to go out, Lu Li started to make preparations. He and Lu Ling analyzed it and found that if the trip was hidden, it would not be very dangerous.
The key is not to let the Zhao family know that he is out of the city, and not to be discovered by outsiders on the way to Hongyan Mountain.
Lu Li and Lu Ling looked at the map carefully and decided to go out through the east city gate and take a detour to Hongyan Mountain.
Hongyan Mountain is in the southeast of the Ice Abyss. People from Wuling City often take the official road closest to the North City Gate when going to the Ice Abyss. Going from the east is less likely to encounter scouts and warriors from various families.
There is a beast tide in the Ice Abyss, and the red phosphorus eagles are flying everywhere. There should not be too many red phosphorus eagles in the Red Rock Mountain, and there are probably a lot of stone rats running around. Lu Li, Liu Yi and the others encountered stone rats in the cave last time, so there may not be many mysterious beasts in Hongyan Mountain.
Not many people knew Lu Li. If Lu Li disguised himself and sneaked into Hongyan Mountain, stole a few red phosphorus eagle eggs and then took a detour back, there might not be any danger.
After confirming the matter, Lu Ling began to prepare Lu Li's luggage. Lu Li went into seclusion again, preparing to completely open up the eleventh meridian and set off once he became stronger.
…
Three days later, Lu Li came out of seclusion in the afternoon. After attacking the meridians day and night for three days, he finally opened up the eleventh meridians.
Lu Ling helped Lu Li prepare a small tent of dried meat and clear water for going out. Lu Li did not set off immediately, but waited until the sky became completely dark before he put on his luggage, wore a bamboo hat to cover most of his face, and brought Xiao Bai with him. He quietly left Liu's house and took a detour towards the east gate.
He was very careful on the road, turning left and right, making sure no one was following him, and then went straight to the east gate. Although his behavior was a bit weird, he had the token of the Liu family on him, so he easily left the city gate.
He still underestimated the Zhao family's scouts...
As soon as he left the city gate, two warriors dressed as ordinary people emerged from the corner alley. These two people were obviously members of the Zhao family. They glanced towards the east gate, then disappeared into the alley.
Lu Li did not join the Liu family's outer hall, did not have much contact with the other warriors, and had no idea about the abilities of each family's top scouts.
What he didn't even know was that the Liu family and the Zhao family had placed traitors in each other's families. Except for the most core secrets of the two families, the other family knew the basic situation very well.
but!
Lu Li chose the right time. It was nightfall. When the scouts reported the news to Zhao Rui, the first young master of the Zhao family, Zhao Rui was having a banquet in the largest brothel in the city. How could he be in the mood to chase Lu Li
Of course, he values Di Ba and Di Huo very much. After joining the Zhao family, Di Huo has obtained resources and is about to break through to the divine sea realm, which is a great help to the Zhao family.
He pondered for a while and asked people to follow Lu Li out of the city first. They would go out of the city early tomorrow morning to pursue him. He also sent a message to the family scouts over at Hanyun Mountain to keep an eye on Lu Li's whereabouts.
For Zhao Rui, Lu Li went out of the city alone, and no matter where he went, the final outcome was destined to be death without a burial. If he, the dignified eldest son of the Zhao family, could not kill a small person like Lu Li, he would no longer have to hang out in Wuling County.
Di Huo was beside Zhao Rui at the moment. He immediately beamed after hearing his arrangement and was gearing up to follow Zhao Rui out of the city early tomorrow morning and cut Lu Li into pieces with a thousand cuts.
…
Bao Bao!
Lu Li was running quickly on the official road in the east city. It was so close to the city and it was easy to encounter warriors from various families. He felt that the further away from the city, the safer he would be.
He was too worried. The beast tide had not been completely calmed down recently, and no one was walking outside the city at night. Lu Li ran wildly in the cold wind alone, and he walked for three hours without meeting anyone.
"That's almost it. Let's find a place to sleep."
It was late at night, and the weather was getting colder and colder. Lu Li turned onto a path facing the dim night and looked for a cave. He took out a tattered tent from the package behind his back, wrapped himself in a tattered quilt and fell asleep.
When Lu Li was a child, he often went to the mountains alone and often spent the night outside, but he slept peacefully. After sleeping until dawn, he got up and washed himself with a small amount of water. He grabbed the dried meat and ate it while running around.
"Huh? There's someone!"
In the crowded and noisy city, Lu Li couldn't detect the scouts following him, but in the wild, he had a keen sense of smell like a wild beast. He vaguely felt something was wrong behind him, and looked back but saw nothing.
Walking in the mountains all year round, Lu Li was often ambushed by wild beasts. His intuition was very accurate, and he was certain that someone was following him behind him.
After thinking about it, he continued to walk forward calmly. After walking a few miles, there was a stone peak in front of him. He quickly turned into the stone peak, pressed against the stone wall and held his breath. He held the Tianlin knife in one hand. Always be ready to take action.
really…
After a moment, two very slight footsteps sounded, and they stopped when they were about to cross the stone peak. After waiting for more than ten breaths, the two figures quietly turned out.
"drink!"
Lu Li shouted loudly, and like thunder on a clear sky, he swiped the Tianlin knife and struck directly at the head of the first person. The young warrior's expression changed with fright. Lu Li's sword was so fast that he couldn't dodge it, so he could only shout: "Don't kill me!"
"boom!"
Lu Li turned the blade slightly, hit the man on the head with the back of the blade, and withdrew some force. Even so, the man's head was smashed and he was bleeding profusely.
"call out!"
Lu Li ignored the first person, raised his Tianlin Sword, turned half a circle, and slashed at the second person.
The man reacted and drew out the sword in his hand, blocking upwards.
How powerful is Lu Li at this moment? After refining the blood elixir, his physical strength reached 30,000 kilograms, and if he added his mysterious strength, it would be at least 37,800 kilograms. How could this person block such a huge force
"Dang~"
There was a dull sound, accompanied by sparks, and the man's long sword was easily smashed away. Lu Li used his sword to break the man's shoulder and collarbone, and swept the man's thigh away before he flew away.
Because he didn't know the identities of these two people, Lu Li didn't kill them. He strode forward with the bloody Tianlin knife, used the broken blade to resist the second man's neck, and asked with cold eyes: "Who are you? Why are you following me?"
The two of them were not wearing Zhao family armor, but ordinary warrior robes. One of them was bleeding profusely, holding his head and howling in pain. The other person gritted his teeth, held his shoulder with one hand, and glared, but didn't say a word.
"snort!"
Lu Li snorted coldly, raised his thigh and stomped hard on the man's chest. His kick was so powerful that more than a dozen ribs on the man's chest were probably broken. Blood spilled from the corners of his mouth, and his face was twisted in pain.
Lu Li asked again: "I'll give you the last chance, if you don't say... die!"
From the eyes of the two people, Lu Li saw something. These two people definitely had bad intentions. Since he is an enemy, he is naturally not polite.
"Little bastard!"
The young warrior who was stepped on bared his teeth and screamed: "You dare to hurt us? My young master will chase you soon and cut you to death with a thousand knives."
"Master?"
Lu Li became confused, when did he offend the young master of the big family? He rolled his eyes and moved his legs away, and said with some fear: "Who is your young master? We have no grievances, why do you want to kill me?"
"Hmph!"
When the man saw that Lu Li was a little scared, he immediately said bitterly: "My young master is Zhao Rui, the first young master of the Zhao family. Please let us go quickly. Otherwise, when the young master comes, you will die without a burial place."
"Zhao Rui!"
Lu Li suddenly realized that he was from the Zhao family, and Di Ba was the elder of the Zhao family. It was probably Di Ba who asked the Zhao family to help him take revenge. The Zhao family sent someone to follow him, and the young master of the Zhao family will be here soon. It seems that the Zhao family found out that he was out of the city and wanted to kill him outside the city.
"Little bastard!"
When the man saw Lu Li's eyes flashing, he got up with difficulty and said coldly: "Immediately surrender and follow me to see the young master, otherwise you will definitely die."
"Hey~"
Without any warning, Lu Li's Tianlin sword swung and chopped the man's head into pieces, and then he killed another person with a twist of his long sword.
