MMORPG: War God, You are Invincible Again-Chapter 1383 - 358: Rescue

After a half-day’s mad dash, Qin Hong and the others finally stopped.

To prevent pursuit, Lu Hong intentionally executed multiple space jumps back and forth, only then did he feel relieved.

Once everyone stopped, the two fugitives bowed to Lu Hong and Qin Hong, saying, "Thank you, Emperor Qin and Emperor Lu, for rescuing us."

Hearing this, Qin Hong squinted slightly and said, "You recognize me. So you’re saying you’re from one of the Twelve Families in the 13th Domain?"

Ordinarily, the ordinary people in the 13th Domain have no opportunity to access much external information and wouldn’t ever leave the domain. Those who could recognize Qin Hong and Lu Hong are likely members of the Titan Twelve Families, who bear a significant grudge against them.

Upon hearing this, the two nodded, and the one on the left said, "I am Xia Yuanlang, and this is my brother Xia Yuanqing."

"What? Did you violate family rules and escape?" Lu Hong asked.

At this, Xia Yuanlang gritted his teeth angrily and said, "Jin Shikai, the Fengyun Road Four Great Families and Six Great Families joined forces to ambush the heavily injured Holy King on his return, and with thunderous momentum, attacked the other Six Great Families. The Ming Family was the first to fall, completely unprepared, and was slaughtered by the six-family alliance. Although we received news of the Ming Family’s demise, we initially didn’t know how many families had allied, and the Feng and Yun Families deceived us, leading to the Xia Family being backstabbed. As a result, the Xia Family fell. Many members of the Xia Family were captured or killed, and we were lucky not to be caught. We hid at the Four Waters Pass, but the pursuit efforts of the Feng and Yun Families were too great, so we decided to take the remaining family members and risk an escape through the pass. However, the gate’s defenses were too strong. Many of our family members died or were wounded, and only my brother and I managed to escape. Without your aid, we surely would not have escaped death."

After listening to Xia Yuanlang’s response, Lu Hong and Qin Hong exchanged glances, thinking, "Damn, we guessed it right."

At the same time, both Qin Hong and Lu Hong couldn’t help but curse in their hearts—how dare these Six Families murder the Ten Thousand Mountains Titan God King?

Returning to their thoughts, Lu Hong raised an eyebrow and said to the Xia brothers, "So what are your plans now?"

Upon hearing this, the Xia brothers exchanged looks of confusion. Revenge? What a joke. Relying on the two of them to avenge the Xia Family and eliminate those Six Families? They’d be throwing their lives away and wouldn’t even scratch the surface. Escape? But where could they escape to? The Dark Continent is vast, but they know that the outside world is full of surveillance. If they are exposed, they are doomed.

The 13th Domain is vast, but the Xiong shou in the Primordial Wilderness are powerful. Just the two of them wouldn’t survive. What could they do?

Seeing their delay in responding, Lu Hong could guess their situation. These were two young ones lost about their future.

"Ahem!" Lu Hong coughed, bringing their chaotic thoughts back, and said, "Since you don’t know what to do, why not listen to my suggestion?"

The Xia brothers were grateful and respectful to the one who saved their lives. Even though they were once adversaries, that was no longer the case.

"Please, Emperor Lu, enlighten us."

"It’s simple. I believe that if you had the opportunity to escape, then surely many others from the other Five Great Families have also evaded capture and are hiding in this Primordial Forest. What you need to do is find them, unite everyone, to seize a chance for revenge. Of course, relying only on your remnants to counter the Six Families isn’t realistic. So, besides banding together, you need to unite with the Twelve Domains of the Dark Continent. Only then can you counter these rebellious Six Families and restore peace to the Dark Continent."

Upon hearing Lu Hong’s guidance, the confusion in the Xia brothers’ eyes dissipated, and they became invigorated, nodding, "Emperor Lu truly lives up to the title of Emperor Master, possessing profound insight. We are impressed."

"Hey, hey, less flattery; I’m tired of it. You two are seriously injured and probably can’t survive long in the Primordial Forest. So, I’ll take you along to search for survivors from the other families. The Six Families are also my enemies. I hope we can join forces to eliminate this threat."

"We’ll follow Emperor Lu’s lead," the Xia brothers said, bowing once more.

Then Lu Hong looked at Qin Hong, who immediately got it and nodded, "I will return to the Dark Continent and inform everyone about the situation in the 13th Domain. The Six Families’ power is immense, and no single domain can oppose them alone. A collaborative effort is essential. Also..."

Qin Hong turned to the Xia brothers and asked, "Is there a way within the 13th Domain to observe the Twelve Domains of the Dark Continent and quickly cross borders?"

This question had troubled Qin Hong for a long time.

In response, Xia Yuanlang nodded, "Yes, there are many such means, mostly intentional designs left by the Divine King, to help us learn about and observe outsiders, thereby improving ourselves."

Receiving a positive answer, Qin Hong frowned tightly; this wasn’t good. With the means to rapidly descend upon any place on the Dark Continent, how could they defend against the Six Families’ assaults?

Seeing Qin Hong frown, Lu Hong said, "The best defense is a good offense. We can’t defend the entire Dark Continent, so there’s no need to. We should take the fight into the 13th Domain. All their external methods will become useless there."

Hearing Lu Hong’s response, Qin Hong’s eyes lit up. Indeed, only by doing this can they neutralize the enemy’s absolute advantage of sudden attacks.

With the problem resolved, Qin Hong immediately turned and left. It would take quite some time to traverse the entire Dark Continent. Furthermore, there’s a key issue: Will the other Great Domains believe Qin Hong’s words?

Lu Hong couldn’t worry about that now. His primary task was to integrate the remnants of the other Five Great Families in the 13th Domain. They are the backbone of the fight against Jin Shikai and the Fengyun Road families, as the Twelve Domains of the Dark Continent are still too weak. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

With Qin Hong departing, Lu Hong first found a mountain cave to settle the Xia brothers and hunted a massive Xiong shou to provide them with nourishment.

Ten days passed, and the injuries of the Xia brothers had mostly healed, which attested to the robust physiques of the Ancient Titans.

With recovery nearly complete, the three began journeying to find the remaining survivors.

After a long three-month search, surprise! Lu Hong managed to find hundreds of survivors from the Six Great Families who had fled the slaughter.

These individuals mostly survived in small groups, struggling for survival in the Primordial Forest.

Gathering these hundreds of Ancient Titans allowed them to band together and avoid the constant threat of Xiong shou.

Then, another three months passed, and Lu Hong’s group grew to nearly a thousand strong. As they moved through the Primordial Forest, they eventually encountered another group gathering remnants.

At this point, the core figures of the two groups sat down to discuss.

The Xia brothers were the first to speak: "Everyone, now that our families have been destroyed and we have no roots, I hope there will be no internal conflicts among us. Such actions will only benefit the Six Families."

Hearing the Xia brothers’ statement, Tian Chuzi from the Tian Family smiled and said, "I quite agree with this point. However, if our two groups are to integrate, we must select a leader. Since Brother Xia speaks so sensibly, why not let us nominate a leader from our side?"

At this, the Zheng Family’s member from Xia’s side slammed the table, "Who do you think you are? In terms of scale, we outnumber you by nearly a hundred. Why should we be under your control?"

"Heh, Zheng Shaonan, it’s not about who has more people. Besides, you’d better stop slamming tables and chairs. You’re no longer the heir of the Zheng Family. Do you want everyone to know that the Zheng Family has been destroyed?"
