782 All Who Elope Will Die (2/2)
Wang Lu did not pay attention to Zhou Mumu, but asked, ”Where is Liu Li?”
”Tsk, that's the standard words spouted out by a couple. After not having seen your old friend for a long time, you went straight for the topic that interested you without saying more greetings? This is the standard forgetting friends when in love.” Zhou Mumu said, and stretched out her hand to point to a direction, ”She's over there, fighting against Qiong Hua. If you go now, you should have time to comfort her.”
When Wang Lu found Liu Li, he saw that she really needed to be comforted.
In the red sea of fire, Liu Li was piloting her one kilometer high giant Divine Weapon to stand, which looked awe-inspiring. However, she was cornered by a red colored long sword and couldn't move at all.
”Junior Sister Liu Li, admit defeat.”
Qiong Hua's voice sounded in the sea of fire, which made it impossible to locate her position. The palm of Liu Li's giant Divine Weapon was still shining with a sharp sword energy. But she could not release it because she could not find the target.
After a long time, Liu Li said quite frustratingly, ”Okay-okay, I admit defeat.”
The next moment, the sea of fire disappeared instantaneously. A scarlet mountain engulfed everything, which then turned into a gorgeous girl in red, the lead disciple of Shengjing Sect, Qiong Hua.
”Sorry, Junior Sister Liu Li, your Brilliant Sword Heart is so dazzling that I dare not fight you head-on. So I have to do something to disturb you with the immortal fire… Having an unfair advantage in a contest, I'm really ashamed.”
Liu Li accepted Qiong Hua's comforting words, but before she nodded, Wang Lu came and sighed.
”Qiong Hua, do you really mean it? How can you bear to use schemes against such a simple and honest girl? A win is a win, yet you still want to let her admit it…”
Qiong Hua was a bit stunned, but she still gave out her perfect smile as she said, ”We meet again, Senior Brother Wang Lu.”
On the other hand, Liu Li's way of expressing her feelings was more direct. In two steps, she rushed over and stretched out her arms for a hug. ”Senior Brother!”
Wang Lu picked Liu Li up by the waist and then put her down on the ground after swinging her around for half a circle. Then he patted her head and said, ”You did good. In front of the great demon king Qiong Hua, you still showed an extremely strong fighting spirit, indeed worthy to be a brilliant disciple of my great Spirit Sword Sect. When I have the time, I will help you adjust your giant Divine Weapon and add in the function to restrain Qiong Hua, which you then can find and fight her.”
”Great!”
From the side, Qiong Hua let out a helpless smile and said, ”Senior Brother Wang Lu, are you here for routine inspection?”
Wang Lu thought for a while. Although he hasn't had much affection for Qiong Hua, in a sense, she was the only one among his peers who could keep up with him. So, he might be clear with her about some words.
”In short, my progress is not going well, so I have to shift the pressure and come to look for you for trouble.” Wang Lu went straight to the point, ”Is it possible to speed up the progress a little bit? For example, to reach ninety percent or more in one month.”
Qiong Hua was immediately shocked and said, ”Senior Brother Wang Lu, I was just joking with Junior Sister Liu Li, you wouldn't force me to die because of this would you?”
”Sure enough, you can't do it…” Wang Lu shrugged and said, ”Then do your best. In short, just remember, the harder you work, the higher our chance of winning in the future. There's no future if we all just count on me alone.”
”What happened?”
”Wang Lu pondered and said, ”At present, there's no definite event. But, my intuition has begun to warn me…”
As soon as the words fell, Wang Lu's heart leaped. Immediately he looked up and saw a purple air fall from the sky.
”Wang Lu, we might have some trouble.” Senior Gem Emperor went right to the point. Although her expression was calm and collected, but… Since her clothes had not been neatly tidied up yet, there were still some traces of the special training just now.
”We have lost contact with Xuan Mo.”
”Xuan Mo?” Wang Lu was also surprised. Since the end of the Grand Competition, the Earth Immortals had accepted very strict management, and the loss of contact was very rare. He said, ”How long has it been?”
”I just received the alert. But this is Xuan Mo, she would never do such a thing, unless…”
”Tsk…” Wang Lu frowned and said, ”She finally couldn't bear to stay single and ran away with someone?”
