The four major families are all determined to win the Nine-Colored Lotus. The fierceness of the battle makes countless onlookers feel frightened.
Especially the missed blow by Mu Renyao just now hit several of the alchemy cultivators who were watching, causing them to turn into ashes in the blink of an eye.
The occurrence of such an accident made the onlookers even more frightened, and they all retreated for dozens of miles.
But after retreating, no one was willing to leave.
The Nine-Colored Lotus is a quasi-immortal treasure of heaven and earth. Once you take a first look at it, you can't get rid of your coveting in your heart.
Even though they knew that there was little hope of getting it, and the possibility of picking it up was even slimmer, they still stayed, thinking that even if they could only watch from a distance, it would be a kind of enjoyment.
It's like a group of hungry people, smelling the aroma of delicious food outside a restaurant. They don't have a penny in their pockets and can't eat the delicious food, but they still want to smell it more.
The melee was still going on, and the people from the four major families simply ignored the "ants" watching from a hundred miles away.
The battle lasted for half an hour, and the Wu family gradually showed its decline.
In a melee between four parties, whichever party is weak first, the other three parties will temporarily unite and work together to force one party out first.
The young master Wu Liju saw the current situation clearly, and although he gritted his teeth unwillingly, in the end he made a right choice.
"Help me get the lotus seeds!"
With an angry and helpless shout, everyone in the Wu family gathered around Wu Lizhi to protect him.
And Wu Lizhi also used the trump card given to him by his family elders, and rushed towards the Nine-Colored Lotus like a meteor.
When approaching, he used all his strength to split the defense of the nine-color lotus, picked two lotus seeds from the lotus pod, turned around and ran away.
After the young master ran away, the Wu family and others retreated at the expense of several people, and they all fled with them.
The other three families looked at Wu Lizhi who was fleeing and had no intention of pursuing him.
After all, there are nine lotus seeds and nine petals in the lotus pod of the nine-color lotus.
Just two lotus seeds were taken away, which was far from enough for them to give up their greater interests to pursue it.
In fact, this is what everyone expected.
The four major families have equal power, and it is impossible for any one family to dominate the Nine-Colored Lotus.
When any company sees that the situation is not good, they will definitely join in the fight and flee after getting a small portion of the benefits. This way they can gain something and protect themselves at the same time.
But the first company to be eliminated will definitely gain the least.
Because as long as he dares to take more, the other three companies will not agree. This is a potential rule.
So Wu Lizhi, who only harvested two lotus seeds and withdrew from the battle, was very angry and furious.
I never expected that the Wu family would be the first to be eliminated in this nine-color lotus competition.
If you go back with such a harvest, you will definitely be blamed by the elders of the clan.
Therefore, Wu Liqiu's heart was filled with anger, and when he was about to escape from the secret realm, he turned back and said to the disciples of the Wu family:
"You guys leave first, I want to go back and vent!"
The children of the Wu family seemed to know the young master very well, and they guessed what he was going to do back there, so they left without saying a word and obeyed the order.
And Wu Liqi turned back midway, what on earth was he going to do?
Still not giving up on the nine-color lotus?
Thinking of going back and fighting for it again?
No, no, Wu Lizhi is not that stupid.
If he dares to go back and fight for the Nine-Colored Lotus at this time, he will only attract more fierce attacks from the other three families.
It's hard to say whether he will be able to leave this secret realm completely by then.
So his return this time has nothing to do with the Nine-Colored Lotus, it's just to find a way to vent his anger!
"ah--!"
A scream suddenly sounded from the onlookers.
Immediately everyone looked there and found that Wu Li was behind a late-stage pill-forming cultivator and pierced his chest with one of his claws.
At this time, a heart that was still beating was caught in Wu Lizhi's hand.
The late-stage pill-forming cultivator who lost his heart did not die immediately. He watched helplessly as his still-beating heart was caught in someone's hand, with eyes full of incomprehension.
"Why, why..."
The people watching around also started whispering after being frightened;
"What's going on? Wu Lizhi has a grudge against that person?"
"That person seems to be from Yunshan Town. The Wu family is in the east of Nanhuzhou and Yunshan Town is in the west. I have never heard of any enmity between the two parties. Normally, there shouldn't be."
"What kind of grudge can a small force like Yunshan Town have against the Wu family? Even if they really had grudges, wouldn't the Wu family have avenged it immediately and wipe out Yunshan Town with a wave of their hands?"
"Yes, then why did Wu Lizhi want to kill him? I really can't figure it out..." Just as everyone around him was confused, a few people seemed to suddenly remember something;
"It's broken! I remembered it! This Wu Liqi never treats people like us who are from small forces as human beings, and he often kills us when something goes wrong!"
"Ah? That means that he has no grievances against that person, just to vent his anger? This, this is a bit outrageous..."
People who know Wu Lizhi are aware of the problem.
If you don’t know much about it, it feels like you are hearing fantasy and it seems impossible.
But soon, the truth was revealed.
A few people realized the problem and wanted to run away in panic.
However, Wu Liqi spotted them first, crushed his heart in his hand with a "bang!", and immediately killed those who wanted to escape.
Swish, swish, swish——!
"Ah, ah, ah..."
Continuous screams rang out. One had completed the pill formation, one was in the late stage of pill formation, and one was in the middle stage of pill formation. They were all killed by Wu Liqu in the blink of an eye.
At this time, everyone no longer had any doubts, and they all looked at Wu Lizhi in shock and fear.
Wu Lizhi, who was covered in blood, had a cheerful evil smile on his face. After kicking a newly removed head away, he looked at the faces full of fear and said;
"You small-power cultivators actually want to come in and get a share of the pie? It's really ridiculous."
"My young master is in a bad mood right now, so I will use you to find happiness. You must work hard to bring me some fun, haha!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a whoosh, and Wu Liqi charged into the crowd again, killing everyone indiscriminately.
The scene suddenly became chaotic. People were dying and running away, but sometimes the faster people ran away, the sooner they were killed.
Gradually, some people could no longer bear the pressure and shouted to the other three major families who were still fighting;
"Wu Liqu is killing people wantonly! As the top force in South Huzhou, don't you have anyone to stop him?"
The man's original intention was to seek help from the three major families, hoping that they could temporarily stop fighting and stop Wu Lizhi first.
But what he didn't expect was that after taking a look here, the three major families actually showed a hint of sneer.
The young master of the Mu family, Mu Renyao, even mocked;
"Hey, you little power cultivator, what on earth gave you the illusion that we care about the lives of you ants..."
