Chapter 368 - Heiyun Deity’s Lake
The person Li Xingyun admired the most was Nie Li. Li Xingyun was a man who rarely admired anyone. Even though Nie Li was much younger than him, he’d already accomplished feats that Li Xingyun couldn’t even imagine.
A party consisting of members of the Demon League and Heavenly Path League secretly made their way into the outside world.
These last few days, the Heavenly Path and Demon Leagues had fought with Gu Heng’s forces several times. The animosity between the two forces had already escalated to the climax. Both armies had killed until their visions were dyed red, yet Gu Heng still launched wild attacks against them without caring for his losses.
The combined Heavenly Path and Demon Leagues had counterattacked, and caused Gu Heng’s side even more losses compared to their own. However, Gu Heng’s force suddenly received aid from over two hundred Heavenly Axis Realm experts. Gu Bei and Li Xingyun’s side immediately avoided his sharp edges.
They couldn’t figure out where did those Heavenly Axis Realm experts had come from.
As a result, they proceeded with more caution, for a time. They couldn’t afford to confront Gu Heng’s forces like that.
In the outside world
Heiyun Deity’s Lake
This was Gu Heng’s most important Deity’s Lake, guarded by a little over six hundred men. Sixteen of them were Heavenly Axis Realm experts. It was a rather decently sized force.
However, Gu Heng’s main forces weren’t present at the moment. Only a portion of his men were needed to guard the Deity’s Lake.
The guards were seated and cultivating on the grassy area near the Deity’s Lake. After all, the Heavenly Energy in this area was extremely rich. Compared to other locations, training here progressed much quicker. No one was willing to waste any time; therefore, only a few people were on patrol.
These men had followed Gu Heng for a long time and never experienced fear. No one ever dared to attack their Deity’s Lake!
Several kilometres away, the Heavenly Path and Demon League members were gathering.
Gu Bei looked behind him and asked, “Are we all here?”
Lu Piao replied, “I made a quick check. We have almost three thousand men. Fifty-six of them are Heavenly Axis Realms!”
Even though they’d only gathered about three thousand men, it was more than enough to take down the Heiyun Deity’s Lake.
“We should be able to start soon!” Li Xingyun looked at Nie Li and lightly smiled.
“Alright!” Nie Li nodded.
“Alright, let’s go!” Gu Bei motioned with his hand as he barked in high spirits. It was only a short time ago that he’d abandoned his own prospects in order to conceal himself. He’d allowed the seniors of his family to believe that he was a useless person. However, his blood never stopped boiling, even for a single day. From this day onwards, he could finally stand forward and compete against Gu Heng.
Nie Li had cured his sister’s illness and given him a Dragon Bloodline God Level demon spirit. Gu Bei would do anything to repay his grace. Even if Nie Li asked him to die, he wouldn’t say no!
“Kill them!”
Three thousand people charged towards the Heiyun Deity’s Lake.
There were so many of them that they looked like a black patch in the sky. From afar, they looked like a massive swarm of bees.
Nie Li was among them, wearing his full set of Grade 6 artifacts and wielding the Thunder God’s Meteorite Sword. A pair of black and white wings flapped behind him as he flew towards the Heiyun Deity’s Lake.
Even though Xiao Yu had an ongoing temper towards Nie Li, he still followed beside Nie Li.
The guards of the Heiyun Deity’s Lake were still cultivating; they hadn’t realised the danger yet.
There were several who were on patrol, but they were mostly chatting amongst themselves. Suddenly, one of them pointed towards the distance and said, “Look! Why are there so many people?”
“Maybe some faction is trying to transfer personnel?” Another guard glanced towards the distance. The situation certainly was rather abnormal, but they still didn’t think that anyone would dare to attack the Heiyun Deity’s Lake. If they came under attack, then Gu Heng would definitely arrive to the rescue within a few hours. So what if the Heiyun Deity’s Lake was taken away for a bit? They could just take it back later.
