Chapter 287: What a Girl Wants

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

Five days later, Lu Li left in the middle of the night without alarming Liu Yi or saying goodbye to them, leaving behind only a written letter. Of course, Lu Li bid farewell to Ye Cha and handed some matters over.

Apart from keeping an eye on the Liu Family, Yu Family and the Bai Family, Lu Li asked Ye Cha to send someone over to the Cyan Plains if he had time. If he could get information about Lu Li, he could bring Lu Ling back or tell her that Lu Li went to the Central Plains.

Lu Li left behind a painting of Lu Ling. He also told Ye Cha that if chances didn’t permit him to save Lu Ling, he shouldn’t risk it.

The Ghost Snake Granny of the Goddess Palace was a powerful person. Yu Huashen speculated that she must be at the peak of the Noble Lord Realm. Ghost Snake Granny was the second most powerful of the Goddess Palace which meant that their master might be at the Human Sovereign Realm.

Therefore, Lu Li asked Ye Cha not to take too big a risk. This was also why Lu Li didn’t go to the Cyan Plains now.

Lu Ling should be safe in the Goddess Palace. Filial piety must come first. He had chosen to go to the Lu Family first. If Lu Ling knew that he had the ability to go to the Lu Family but instead went to the Cyan Plains, she would scold him.

What was more…

After he went back to the Lu Family to find his origin, he thought the Lu Family could send out powerful warriors to the Ice Abyss and to the Goddess Palace to bring Lu Ling back. That would be the best.

Lu Li also said goodbye to Hunchback Tian and asked Ye Cha to relieve Hunchback Tian from the Soul Worms. Hunchback Tian stayed at the Liu Family out of sincerity. He knew that the Liu Family would rise, and most importantly, the Cyan Phoenix Race had Heaven Serpent Fruit.

Lu Li, Yu Huashen and Ming Yu went to the Dragon Elephant Mountain at the Blood Evil Island after they left the God-down Island quietly. They went to pay tribute to Lu Li’s grandpa and sixth granduncle. Then they flew to the Heaven Martial Kingdom on Iron-armored Ships directly.

Lu Li chose to be teleported out of the Northern Desert from the Heaven Martial Kingdom because the Zi Family was friendly to him. Besides, Yu Huashen had to go back to make some arrangements.

Of course, Lu Li had one more thing to do, to kill the Family Patriarch of the Bu Family.

Once, the Family Patriarch of the Bu Family dug out Lu Li’s grandpa’s grave as a gesture to build relationship with the Yu Family. He killed Lu Li’s sixth granduncle as well. Lu Li would always feel unhappy if he could not behead this Family Patriarch.

The Inhibition Formation was activated on the Iron-armored Ship. Nobody on the outside could hear a sound on the ship or see anything. Lu Li cultivated in the cabin, Ming Yu sat next to him with his legs crossed and Yu Huashen steered the Iron-armored Ship.

The Iron-armored Ship was fast. By dawn of the second day, they were close to the Wu Ling County. Lu Li was the one that wanted to come here as he desired to go over to the Ice Abyss.

“Let’s go!”

Lu Li and Ming Yu flew down the Iron-armored Ship towards the Ice Abyss. Yu Huashen didn’t go with them. He asked the Yu Family to start sending a message out to capture the Family Patriarch of the Bu Family.

Ming Yu took Lu Li and rushed on. They arrived at the Frigid Cloud Mountain in just an hour. Standing on the peak, Lu Li felt a surge of emotions in his heart. One and half a year ago, he was pulling coffins. He was hunted down by the Iron Spur Wolves in the valley. He ran away from Zhao Rui. Now, he had become the leader of the biggest force of the Northern Desert…

Ming Yu didn’t bring Lu Li very near to the Ice Abyss. That Beast King was killed but who could say for sure that there was no others?

Plus, to go near and not to made no difference. Nobody at the Northern Desert dared to go inside. Regular warriors would most certainly die in there. Even Lu Renhuang couldn’t get out after he went in…

“Father, Mother!”

Lu Li looked away into the north and said, “I am going to the Central Plains now. Please hold on for a while. I will go to the Mystic Armor City soon and I will find powerful warriors of the Lu Family to rescue you. Lu Family is an Eighth-rank Family so I believe they must be able to save you.”

“Um… there is a thing!”

Lu Li suddenly had a question. He looked at Ming Yu and asked, “Ming Yu, three warriors of the Soul Pond Realm will make a family a Third Rank one, three of the Eternal Realm is a Fifth-rank Family, three Human Sovereign Realm is a Seventh-rank Family. So what do Eighth-rank Families have? Thirty Human Sovereign Realm warriors?”

“I don’t know…”

Ming Yu shook his head and answered, “Northern Desert is such a small place that even one Human Sovereign Realm warrior is a big deal. I don’t know about the details. I think we need to find out after we get to the Central Plains.”

“Oh, oh!”

Lu Li then looked to the north for a while. After that, he waved his hand and said, “Let’s go now. We will go to the Yu Emperor City and then to the Heaven Martial City.”

Ming Yu again grabbed Lu Li and rushed on. Yu Huashen had come back from his mission. The Inhibition Formation of the Iron-armored Ship was turned on as it travelled in the wildness.

But they didn’t take the Iron-armored Ship all the way to the Yu Emperor City as it was too far away. Yu Huashen controlled the ship to fly to a nearby region and then teleported to the Yu Emperor City by the Teleportation Formation there.

Lu Li didn’t go to meet the Yu Family after they arrived. He asked Yu Huashen to take him to a side chamber to have some rest while Yu Huashen tended to his own matters.

After dark, Yu Huashen came back with a warrior. Lu Li glanced over to him and nodded. Yu Huashen was an efficient man. The Family Patriarch of the Bu Family was taken back. Lu Li was in no mood to kill a warrior of only the Fate Wheel Realm. He waved his hand to ask Yu Huashen to take the Family Patriarch outside and kill him.

Yu Huashen then left for his own thing again. Lu Li and Ming Yu spent the night at the Yu Emperor City. At daybreak, Yu Huashen came back after he finished all his matters.

“Let’s go!”

Lu Li didn’t want to stay at the Yu Emperor City for long. After all, the Family Patriarch of the Yu Family was his slave now. Lu Li teleported to the Heaven Martial City with Ming Yu and Yu Huashen.

There were many people outside the Heaven Martial City Teleportation Formation. Yu Huashen must have sent a message to the Zi Family. Zi Huanyu, the Chief Patriarch of the Zi Family, and Zi Lian were here to greet Lu Li with a bunch of warriors.

“Welcome, Young Master Lu!”

Zi Huanyu was hospitable. He chatted with Lu Li, took his hands and showed him to the Zi Family. Zi Huanyu spoke to Lu Li nicely, “Our Family Patriarch is waiting for you. He has been looking forward to meeting you.”

Lu Li had hoped that he could leave right away, but he had no other choice but to follow Zi Huanyu and Zi Lian right now.

They went into the Zi Family compound and arrived at a grand hall. A middle-aged man with handsome features, elegant bearing and in golden robes was waiting here with another crowd.

“He is the Zi Family Patriarch, Zi Huanqiao!”

Yu Huashen introduced to Lu Li. Lu Li looked at the smiling middle-aged man, mixed feelings filled his heart. In the past, Lu Ling and he longed for joining the Zi Family so they could take the super Teleportation Formation of the Zi Family to teleport to the Central Plains.

However, the Zi Family to them in the old days was like a family in heaven. They weren’t even qualified to step into the Heaven Martial City, let alone joining the Zi Family. Now, Lu Li walked into the Zi Family compound openly. The Family Patriarch of the Zi Family, the King of the Heaven Martial Kingdom, was even here to receive him in person.

Lu Li knew how to react when others were honoring him with respect. He soon walked to Zi Huanqiao, bowed and said, “King Zi, nice to meet you.”

“Ha, ha, ha!”

Zi Huanqiao laughed. He helped Lu Li up with his strong hands and said, “I have long heard the reputation of Young Master Lu. My Lian-er has being talking about you every day after she came back from the Tomb of Dragon King. I finally have the chance to meet you today. You are really a young hero and an outstanding one.”

Lu Li looked over to Zi Lian subconsciously and happened to catch her glances over. Upon making the eye contact, Zi Lian’s face was blushing. She lowered her head in shyness.

Young girls dreamed romantic dreams and young married women dreamed of sexy dreams. The shyness of a girl and charm of a woman were both weapons to mesmerize a man.

Lu Li’s heart was touched. He averted his looks and cleared his throat. He said in embarrassment, “King Zi, you have spoken too highly of me. I am young and there are many things I don’t know. I am not powerful enough yet. I need to learn from heroes like you, King Zi.”

“Ha, ha, ha!”

Zi Huanqiao laughed again. His laughter was loud and powerful. A person that could become a king really was one of a kind.

Zi Huanqiao looked at Zi Lian with love. Suddenly, he sighed and said, “Young Master Lu, I hear that you are leaving the Northern Desert? My daughter has been spending her days in despair. She has lost all her desire for food and drinks. She even never smiles. Today, as soon as she knows you are coming, she is as active as a bunny. She can’t even sit still. Well… a grown girl cannot be kept at home. How about I let her go with you to the Central Plains? It’s kind of like her going to experience the world.”

“Um…”

Lu Li, Yu Huashen and a bunch of powerful warriors of the Zi Family were shocked. What did Zi Huanqiao mean? Was he trying to set up Zi Lian with Lu Li?
