Chapter 481: Fight with the Feather Race

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"

Lu Li released his Fate Wheel while others used their Beads of Life. All charged forward like streaks of lightning as they locked their psychic powers on the four warriors of the Feather Race.

"No—"

Lu Li yelled without any hesitation, "This is a trap. Withdraw!"

Even though the four warriors of the Feather Race appeared to be in a panic, their souls didn't show signs of fluctuation. Lu Li's psychic power could penetrate into their souls, which enabled him to see this clearly.

While the others were hesitating, Lu Li had retreated. Pausing for one moment, Jiang Qiling made the decision to trust Lu Li. Controlling her Bead of Life to fly back, she shouted, "Retreat!"

Jiang Qiling's choice was proven to be the right one. In the distant mountains, there were some fluctuations caused by Inhibition Formations in the woods and grasses. Then hundreds of the Feather Race flew up and charged toward Lu Li and the others like a bunch of locusts.

"Lady Qi, you go first. We will cover you!"

Jiang Hu turned back and found that the Feather Race were faster than them. He shouted to Jiang Qiling right away. Their job here was to protect her and die for her. This was a moment for them to accomplish their mission.

Jiang Qiling threw a cold glance to all the Feather Race warriors on their tail and said coldly, "Don't be silly. Feather Race are not good attackers. Let's fight them as we withdraw. When we go back to the cave we came out from, we don't have to be afraid of Feather Race anymore. Jiang Hu, listen to my orders or I will stay here with you."

Seeing the determination in her eyes, Jiang Hu knew he could not convince this crazy young lady. He had to turn to Lu Li and said, "Young Master Lu, please take our young lady to go with you."

Lu Li threw a glance to the Feather Race and answered coldly, "Listen to your young lady. If it gets too dangerous, I will take your young lady away."

So, it was settled.

Jiang Hu made up his mind and took out a saber. Others unsheathed their weapons as well and put on armors. Jiang Qiling put on a beautiful red armor, looked at Lu Li and asked, "Lu Li, you don't have an armor?"

"I don't need one!"

Lu Li shook his head. Heaven Grade Xuan Artifact wouldn't provide too much protection and he couldn't buy a Holy Grade one. He was a firm believer in offense being the best defense and he preferred it this way.

"Buzzing!"

He generated clones. Dozens of clones whooshed on to all directions with some of them rushing to the Feather Race warriors. Jiang Hu and others were amazed again. Being born in major families, they could tell that Lu Li was not using some Xuan Skill, but Profound Meaning.

Lu Li was only at the Eternal Realm and he could already use Profound Meaning. The silver claw of his was terrifying as well. The others didn't dare to belittle Lu Li anymore when he had so many miraculous secrets.

The Feather Race warriors were stunned by all those clones. Every clone of Lu Li was holding a saber and giving out strong killing intent. The Feather Race regarded the situation as very grave.

The Feather Race resembled human's appearances. The Feather Race warriors had nice looks. They all had delicate features, slim bodies and elegant manners, both males and females.

The thing that differentiated them from humans were two snow-white three-feet-long wings on their back. Taking advantage of their wings, they were even faster than Jiang Hu. Their speed could compare with a warrior at the peak of Noble Lord Realm.

"Swish, swish—"

Hundreds of Feather Race took out beautiful longbows from their Interspatial Rings. The longbows glowed as arrows of multi colors were discharged. The arrows had colorful air circling them, very appalling.

The clones were shattered one after another and the Feather Race warriors were in hot pursuit. They didn't mind the clones flying to all directions and formed a fan formation to close up on the humans.

"Swish, swish~"

Arrows of varied colors pierced through the sky, making a shrill noise. Everyone on Jiang Qiling's team felt they were locked with a streak of killing intent.

"Hoy!"

Jiang Hu and the others made a move. While running on, they shot out Xuan Energy to attack. Someone of them generated rays of sword light, others shadows of fists or palms…

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Explosions broke out as Xuan Energy attacks and arrows hit against each other. Even though the arrows were still moving forward, they were slowed down and their powers were drained.

That being said, there were too many from Feather Race, the total number being above 100. On the other hand, Lu Li's side only had 12. Also, the arrows were released at an alarmingly fast rate. Inevitably, many arrows escaped the attack from Xuan Energy and were shot at people's backs.

Since they could not fight back with Xuan Energy, they had to use their weapons to shield them from the rain of arrows while retreating.

Soon, someone was injured. Luckily, there was a distance between them and the Feather Race and everyone was wearing Heaven Grade armors. Jiang Qiling's was a Holy Grade one and the arrows would bounce off from her armor.

The one person having the easiest time was Lu Li. He could crush the arrows with his silver claw at east. None of the arrows could reach him.

They were more than 100 miles away from the cave. On the outside, they could have arrived at the cave in the time for just more than a dozen breaths. But given the gravitational force here, their speeds were limited. It would take them at least the time for two incense sticks to burn to arrive at the cave. If they didn't fight back, judging by the situation, some might not be able to go back alive.

"Hmm!"

Jiang Qiling released her Bloodline Skill and so did Jiang Hu. All of a sudden, the sky was full of butterflies. Working with them, Lu Li generated more clones to confuse the Feather Race.

"Squall, squall~"

One of the Feather Race bawled. It sounded like the ancient language used at the Deserted World. Every one of the Feather Race put their guards up. They spread out to the sky and to go underground to avoid the Soulfeast Butterflies.

Jiang Qiling was able to understand the language. She spluttered, "Those bird men know Jiang Family's Bloodline Skill. I am so mad."

Lu Li rolled his eyes. The four races had been fighting against humans for so many years. How could they not know the 12 Royal Families respective remarkable abilities? It was normal for the Feather Race to know about Soulfeast Butterfly given that it was eighth rank Bloodline with distinguished features.

So many Soulfeast Butterflies were sent out but only two of the Feather Race were hit. The others of the Feather Race had spread out. Soulfeast Butterflies could not travel far and they gradually vanished in midair.

"Whoosh!"

After dodging the Soulfeast Butterflies, the Feather Race warriors came back out soon. They kept discharging more arrows. This was the tactic the Feather Race had been relying on. They would launch their attacks from the distance, hoping to kill as many as they could.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Ten thousand arrows were discharged at once. Jiang Hu and the others were hit constantly. Their armors began to crack and wear out. There were already someone injured though not seriously.

"I will cover your retreat. You go first. I have Holy Grade armor and the arrows cannot hurt me!"

Jiang Qiling said coldly. She slowed down to the back of the team. But Jiang Hu was worried and he slowed down as well. Lu Li sighed and said, "You go first. I will cover you with Lady Qi. Don't worry. I am fast, faster than you. If we are in danger, I will take her and run away. Go or you will all die here."

"You are fast?"

They hadn't seen Lu Li releasing Speed Profound Meaning so they were having doubts. Jiang Qiling yelled coldly to them, "Go, or I will kill you!"

Seeing Jiang Qiling flipping out, the others had no choice but to run away, leaving her and Lu Li behind. Lu Li controlled his Fate Wheel to fly on as he turned back and facing the incoming arrows. Waving his silver claw, he crushed the arrows one by one.

Jiang Qiling had an even easier time. She stood on her Bead of Life, exposing herself to the arrows. Since she was young, she had taken many body refinement pellets. Her constitution was exceptionally good. Even though she was hit again and again and would tremble a bit, her complexion didn't become pale and she didn't spit out blood no matter how much energy were contained in the arrows.

With the two covering retreat, Jiang Hu and the others fled away faster. Soon, they arrived at the cave safely.

Lu Li was emboldened by the fact that Jiang Hu and others were out of the woods. He turned over and said, "Jiang Qiling, we have been chased by those bird men for such a long time now. How about we go and vent our anger?"

"Okay!"

Jiang Qiling could see distinctly the killing intent in Lu Li's eyes. She was thrilled. Looking at him with a smile, she said, "How do you want to play this? I will follow your lead."
