The Guest Clan was not far away from the west gate. With dozens of small yards inside, the Guest Clan was quite spacious. There were no women or children inside though. Cheng Qu’s wife, along with the children and family members of other Guest Warriors, was relocated a long time ago.
A couple of days ago, Cheng Qu asked if Lu Ling wanted to leave the County with them but Lu Ling declined. She knew clearly that Cheng Qu’s wife and the others could leave, but she could not leave the Liu Family. Otherwise, Di Ba would try to get her as soon as possible.
Teams after teams of warriors jumped onto the roofs of the Guest Clan houses. However, as soon as they landed on the roof, they noticed that there seemed to be fire burning in some rooms. Because of the rain, the combustion was not complete, so the dark smoke billowed.
"What is it?"
Liu Yi frowned and glanced over to Lu Li’s yard. All she could see was a lady with a thin veil over her face, standing at the door with her walking stick, looking towards the people calmly.
"Lu Ling?"
Liu Yi was once again astonished. Lu Ling being here should be a sign that Lu Li had not escaped yet. Then why did he not come out?
"Uncle Cheng, come here please!" Lu Ling shouted to Cheng Qu who looked over to her and nodded. Then he rushed to Lu Ling’s room like a shadow.
Warriors of the Liu Family swarmed their way here and entered Liu Family’s Guest Clan. On their back were Zhao Rui, Di Ba and their warriors. This time, Liu Yi did not ask them to retreat. The bloody war was on again.
Soon, Cheng Qu rushed out of the room and handed a cheap-looking pellet to Liu Yi secretly and whispered to her in her ears, "It is the Purple Erosion Grass that is burning in those rooms. This is the antidote. Take it quietly. "
Then Cheng Qu rushed towards other warriors of the Liu Family that were at the Spirit Sea Realm and handed them pellets as well. He asked them to take those without giving the warriors any explanation.
The warriors of the four Families felt that something was up. Di Ba glanced over and he suddenly remembered something. Di Ba shouted, "Purple Erosion Grass is burning in those rooms. Leave."
Lu Ling once did this back at the Di Long Tribe. Di Ba had heard about it. Now that he saw Cheng Qu distribution pellets to Spirit Sea Realm warriors of the Liu Family, he naturally understood what was going on.
"Stop them!"
Liu Yi yelled. A powerful energy and qi surged from her body. She had made moves in person. The other warriors nearby looked at her and were totally surprised. When did Liu Yi break through to the Spirit Sea Realm?
This time, Liu Yi used the whip she used to carry around. The whip entangled the leg of a Spirit Sea Realm warrior of the Lu Family [1].
Cheng Qu himself was a powerful warrior at the Spirit Sea Realm. He lead people and charged forward like a tiger. They used all their efforts to stop the warriors of the other four families to stop them from having the chance to leave the Guest Clan.
"Such a shame…"
Lu Ling looked at the scene through the window, sighing. The storm today made the speed of smoke spread slower. On top of that, Di Ba had seen through her plan very fast. Maybe the Purple Erosion Grass could have some use, but not much.
"Get inside and put the fire out!"
Noticing that many were boxed up, Zhao Rui immediately gave out orders and sent someone to those rooms to put the fire out. The rain was heavy tonight. It should be easy to put out fire. As long as the fire was extinguished, the Purple Erosion Grass would be useless.
More than a dozen Xuan Wu Realm warriors covered their noses and rushed to the rooms right away. They planned to get all the Purple Erosion Grass out and let the rain drench them.
"Ah…"
These men started giving out sad, shrill cries as soon as they got in. Instantly, several men backed out and rolled over on the ground. On the first look, Zhao Rui and the others were gasping with astonishment.
The armors worn by these men rolling on the ground were corroded piece by piece. Areas of skin and flesh were emitting fumes. Clearly, they were poisoned by some potent toxic.
"What…"
Liu Yi and her warriors were also shocked. The toxic was so corrosive. Everyone was wearing battle armors, but those were showing holes because of the erosion.
Many men’s faces were eroded. It was a dreadful sight.
"Who did this?"
Liu Yi looked toward Cheng Qu who was confused. The rest of the Guest Warriors were also befuddled.
"Can it be Lu Li’s sister?"
Liu Yi remembered that when she looked towards Lu Ling, the latter had gem-like eyes which showed calmness. The idea came to Liu Yi’s mind.
