Chapter 676: Knowledgeable
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
Lu Ling’s voice was soft and her tone was kind. She made it look like they were only chatting about family matters. Somehow, Lu Li felt a lump into his throat.
He knew that Lu Ling was not just saying. If something did happen to him, Lu Ling could certainly go to the Central Plains with all the powerful warriors she had. She would kill as many disciples of the four families as possible in a doomed effort and then perish like night blossoms.
Lu Ling came with unswerving determination. Since they were kids, Lu Li rarely saw her shed a tear. She didn’t even cry when she was almost raped by Di Hu and had to climb back from the mountain after cutting her own leg.
She was not a person who gave easy promises and the ones she made she would deliver with all her efforts. She wouldn’t hesitate even when it came to a vanishing point.
“Sis, I am sorry!”
Lu Li took her hands. She nodded but didn’t say anything. She showed him to a castle and the others followed them.
As soon as they entered the castle, Lu Li began to ask about Little White. Lu Ling frowned at the news. She called over a man to investigate and comforted Lu Li, asking him to tell her everything from the beginning.
Lu Li gave a detailed account. He even told her about him awakening a new Bloodline Skill and controlling Beast Kings.
“Well, it’s a blessing in disguise. This Bloodline Skill is powerful. You can kill Human Sovereign Realm warriors now?”
Lu Ling nodded after hearing him out. But she didn’t ask too many questions. After a pause, she snorted and said, “Lu Suan, Lu Ni, Ji Mengtian, Ji Mengyao, Yang Xuan, Die Feiyu! They are very involved in this ambush. We shall not forget about this. Later, we will go to them and kill them one by one.”
“I feel so sorry for you…”
Lu Ling patted Lu Li’s face and continued, “You have done well. I think the Clouds Plains, Serenity Plains and the Northern Desert will be peaceful now. Before our time is up, nobody will stir up trouble here. We can do business with the Great Buddhist Temple, get many Mystical Materials and we have the Inferno. Maybe in eight years, we stand to have a chance to have one or two Earth Immortal Realm warriors.”
“Yes!”
Lu Li nodded. In Inferno, they could study Profound Meanings very quickly and Great Buddhist Temple could supply them with the Mystical Materials they lacked of. Everything was ready and it all came down to the Human Sovereign Realm warriors’ luck. If they were fortunate enough, there was a chance for them to reach the Earth Immortal Realm.
“Right!”
Lu Li took out a hide scroll, handed it to Lu Ling and said, “Sis, this is an ancient occult skill. It can make a wondrous Walking Puppets which are no weaker than Human Sovereign Realm warriors!”
“This is very good!”
Taking it over, Lu Ling studied it carefully. Lu Li asked with surprise, “Sis, you understand the ancient language?”
Lu Ling grinned and replied, “I know a lot.”
Lu Li said nothing. He felt sorry for her. Lu Ling was under much more pressure than he was. In order to find a way out in 10 years, she must be racking her brains. She must have learned the ancient language in order to find a method from ancient skills and literature.
Rustle, rustle, rustle~
After an hour, a Human Sovereign Realm warrior came to report, “Saintess, I have sent men to nearby cities but nobody found Little White nor Fourth Patriarch of the Gu Family.”
Lu Li was saddened by the news and anxiety must show on his face. Lu Ling patted his hand and said, “You must understand now that you have grown. Getting nervous won’t help and it will only make it worse. Little White is so strong and so fast. No average people can kill it or catch it. It is okay that it goes missing for now. We will find Little White. Let me handle it.”
Lu Ling waved to that Human Sovereign Realm warriors and said, “Send my word. Get some scouts to the Island of Tranquility and send message to the Central Plains as well. Mobilize warriors at the Clouds Plains, Serenity Plains and along the coastal areas. Get a stretch of Little White. We must find it.”
Lu Li understood it was pointless to go look on his own. To let scouts handle it was better because their searches would be more professional. After Lu Ling gave her order, many people would take actions to look at every corner of the world. If Little White was still alive, it would come back soon enough.
Lu Li told the warrior, “If you find Little White, don’t do anything. Let me know right away. I am worried that Little White is going to attack the scouts.”
Little White was warm to only a handful of people. It would attack if a stranger got to him.
Orders were being sent and arrangements were made. Lu Li put aside the matter of Little White and asked, “Sis, how is the Serenity Plains now?”
“Okay!”
Lu Ling said, “We have occupied most of the areas. Some surviving forces ran and have been lurking around to do damage. I think we need another six months before we can stabilize the situation.”
This was not surprising. It took a long time to stabilize the Clouds Plains. Back then, Tu Ni was named the emperor. If Lu Ling was the empress, it would take her another year to finish.
Chips were down. Lu Li needn’t have to worry about the trivial matters. He asked another question, “How is it going at the Inferno and Northern Desert?”
“Fine!” Lu Ling nodded but didn’t elaborate. Lu Li put his mind at ease. He thought for a while and said, “I will wait here for a couple of days. If I don’t hear about Little White, I will go back to the Deserted World to save Qiuxue.”
“Sure!”
Lu Ling said, “I will not go for now. Serenity Plains needs to be managed and there are cleaning up to do at some islands. I need to make some other arrangements since many scouts from the Central Plains have found their way into the Serenity Plains and the Clouds Plains. We need to get rid of them.”
“Thank you, sister!”
Lu Li sighed. Lu Ling shouldered all the burdens of the two plains and the Northern Desert. Back when Madam Yan was managing the Northern Desert, she already felt deeply troubled. Lu Ling must have it worse.
“It’s okay!”
Lu Ling smiled. Somehow, there was sorrow in her eyes as she sighed and said, “It is a pity that we have nothing about our father yet. You have made a huge mess at the Central Plains so he must have heard it. Could it be that…he is not at the Central Plains now?”
“Father?” Lu Li frowned. His father was secretive in his movement and trace. He didn’t come to see his own son and daughter after leaving the Ice Abyss. Where had he gone? What had he been doing?
At Lu Ling’s orders, tens of thousands of men were on the move. More than 10,000 were teleported to the Island of Tranquility and the same amount went to the Clouds Sea in an effort to search for Little White.
Wei Family also allocated many warriors at the Island of Tranquility. Many civilians were confused by the fact that so many people were attempting to find a little beast…
It had been five days but no news came. Lu Li couldn’t stay any longer. He could wait at the Shining Cloud City so he could do the same at the Deserted World. He left the matter to Lu Ling and teleported back to the Deserted World on his own.
At the Snow Mountain of Dragons, that sweet lady was frozen for long enough. Lu Li couldn’t wait to save her.
A young lady was frozen while her thought worked. In her world there was nothing other than darkness and coldness. She had been living like this for several years. Lu Li was concerned that Bai Qiuxue could not hold out any longer before she had a mental breakdown or became delirious…
