Chapter 1114: Dumbstruck

“Relay my command that everyone has to run at full speed! Even if the person’s yuan energy is completely depleted, make them run! No matter what you have to do, you must get them to the Boundless Mountains within half an hour!” Luo Tian ordered.

Bai Xiong said in startlement, “Boss, there’s no way we can do that in half an hour. There’s basically no one here who has any yuan energy left. They have been all just running most of the way, and many cannot handle it anymore.”

Lin Dong added, “That’s right. I don’t think they can do it even if given a full hour.”

Luo Tian furrowed his brow. That half an hour included him blocking for the group to escape.

Based on Deng Huolei’s speed, they will catch up in about twenty minutes.

At that time, encountering Bai family disciples with depleted yuan energy would be as easy as killing chickens.

Luo Tian suddenly jumped onto a boulder and shouted, “Brothers, let’s have a competition! Whoever can be the first to enter the Boundless Mountains will be the head elder of our Bai family! Whoever is the second to reach it will be the second elder! I am going to establish ten elder positions! These ten elders will not be chosen based on cultivation or achievements. As long as the first ten people reach the Boundless Mountains, I will give them the position of elder and the treatment that comes with it. This treatment will be twice that of the previous Bai family elders!”

When people heard that, their spirits instantly perked up.

“Big Brother Luo, is what you’ve said really true?”

“Are you sure you’re going to keep your word?”

“The first person to reach the Boundless Mountain Range will become the head elder? Is there really such a good thing?”

Luo Tian immediately added, “Uncle Bai handed the Bai family to me, so I am the patriarch. My words are commands. If I say someone is an elder, then he or she is an elder. You guys only need to run with all your might. I, Luo Tian, will never go back on my word!”

“Enough with the talking and start running!”

They couldn’t afford to waste even a second.

Since Bai Qi handed the Bai family to him, he had to bring them away safely!

He cannot allow any of them to die.

Luo Tian thought of an idiom from his previous life in the Three Kingdoms. It was called looking at plum blossoms to quench one’s thirst. It was basically to console oneself with false hopes. This was the only move he could think of. As a martial artist, they all wanted more resources for their cultivation and a higher status in society. This was true no matter what time and place.

Moreover, the group didn’t know Deng Huolei and his army of disciples were about to catch up, so they were acting like they were out of danger.

Everyone was shocked.

No one asked any further questions because they all ran out like a swarm of bees. Even the twelve-year-old child that Luo Tian had been carrying on his back just now ran like crazy, like he didn’t care about his life any longer. That kid even managed to get to the front part of the group.

This showed that human potential was limitless. Even when they were tired to the point of being unable to move, they could still burst forth with hidden energy once they were stimulated by something.

Luo Tian sighed in relief after watching them run so quickly. freewēbnoveℓ.com

Bai Xiong had a look of shock on his face before looking at Luo Tian with even more admiration. “Boss is truly the boss. With this awesome move, let’s not talk about half an hour; I think twenty minutes is enough for them.”

Luo Tian rolled his eyes at Bai Xiong and said, “Why aren’t you running? Do you think I will give you face just because you’re my brother? If you aren’t in the top ten, I won’t give you an elder’s position. You can forget about begging me, too.”

“What are you two looking at?”

“Don’t think that we have a good relationship, and I will let you two go through the backdoor. It won’t be happening.”

“You three, please don’t lose face for me. If you guys aren’t in the top ten, then I will be too ashamed to show my face in public,” said Luo Tian.

Bai Xiong looked stunned.

The three of them glanced at each other before looking at the Bai family disciples slowly disappearing into the distance. They immediately started running and shouted, “Wait for us! I want to be an elder, too! Wait up!”

The three of them quickly disappeared into the distance.

Luo Tian sauntered in their direction without a sense of urgency.

He was going to heal himself once Super Regeneration’s cooldown was over.

The sword injuries on his body had recovered about 70 – 80%. His yuan energy was still quite low, though.

“Hahaha…”

“There’s a person up ahead! Let’s quickly catch up!”

“That person looks a bit familiar…”

“That’s Luo Tian!”

“It’s really that kid. And do you guys see his body covered in blood? He’s definitely seriously injured. Bai Kong and the others were elders of the Bai family, so they couldn’t have gone down that easily. The kid is definitely injured.”

“Hahaha…”

“That kid’s life is mine! I, Ouyang Niu, will be the one to take credit for it!”

He clamped his legs down and started whipping faster in order to get ahead.

The elders behind him didn’t want to be left behind, so they started whipping their horses to catch up as well.

Only Deng Huolei didn’t rush over. He narrowed his eyes like a wily old fox and sneered internally, “Even if Luo Tian is injured, he’s an injured, enraged lion. You guys think it will be that easy to kill him? If it was, he wouldn’t be called Luo Tian anymore.”

When it came to the analysis of Luo Tian, the Deng family did a much better job than the other families.

This was the reason Deng Leigong wanted to control Luo Tian with the Heavenly Soul Capturing Pill.

Luo Tian was a very strong individual. When he encounters a powerful enemy, he is capable of exploding forth with hidden potential. One cannot let their guard down around him unless he is confirmed dead. This was Deng Leigong’s advice to him before he led the hunt. As for him, he only wanted Luo Tian dead and the Heavenly Soul Capturing Pill back. Deng Huolei didn’t care how Luo Tian dies or who manages to kill him.

“Luo Tian, hand your life over!”

“Pay back our patriarch’s life!”

“Luo Tian, go to hell!”

Almost at the same time, the three elders of the Zhang, Li, and Ouyang families leaped from their horses. They were in the air like hungry tigers, pouncing on a helpless sheep, using their most powerful moves.

“Bang~!”

“Clang~!”

“Boom~!”

Luo Tian looked like he didn’t have time to dodge and was immediately killed by three descending strikes.

“Hahaha…”

“Hahaha…”

“Hahaha…”

The three were laughing so much that they couldn’t close their mouths. They were exceptionally excited, staring at Luo Tian’s corpse. “I thought that Luo Tian was very strong, yet he was killed with just one attack. Humph~! What a piece of trash!”

“How can you call him trash? Calling him trash is an insult to all other trash. Lucky for him that he never fought with me in the past, or else I would beat him to the point of being only able to crawl on the ground.”

“Looks like we will have to share the credit.”

The three were extremely happy and chatting away because they had killed Luo Tian.

However, Deng Huolei was full of doubts as he said to himself, “How could this be? Something’s not right. There’s no way Luo Tian would die that easily. This person cannot be him.”

But for the time being, he couldn’t think of what exactly was wrong.

He hurried over and examined the corpse on the ground. There was no mistake that this was clearly Luo Tian’s body.

Deng Huolei frowned. He kept feeling something was wrong while staring at Luo Tian’s corpse, but he couldn’t pinpoint what.

Suddenly, Deng Huolei’s eyes widened as he shouted, “Not good! It’s a clone!”
