Chapter 381: Where to Go?

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

Lu Tianhe and the others slept for more than 16 hours. Great Patriarch was at the Earth Immortal Realm, and he had used secret skills to knock out their souls. Great Patriarch went easy on them. Otherwise, they could only wake up after several days.

Patriarch Feng was the first to come back to his senses. He glanced over but didn't give out any warning signals. He woke up the others first.

"What happened? Where are they?"

Lu Tianhe's expression changed after he woke up. He looked at Patriarch Feng and learned something from the latter's expressions.

"Go back three miles."

Lu Tianhe didn't do anything rashly, either. He told the 10 warriors of the Noble Lord Realm to step back before he asked, "You think it's Fifth Great Uncle?"

Patriarch Feng didn't give a straight answer. Instead, he replied, "I cannot think of anyone else."

"It's him…"

Lu Tianhe sighed. "The only one that can knock us out in an instant must be at the Earth Immortal Realm, and there are only four at this realm that major in the cultivation of souls in the entire Central Plains. There are two of them at the southern Central Plains and one from the Pavilion of Delicacy. The Pavilion of Delicacy has always been on the good side of us and they won't offend the Lu Family just for Lu Li. So, that leaves us with Fifth Great Uncle. If… it was not him, we would be dead by now."

The other patriarch nodded and said, "Tianhe, what do you think we should do?"

Lu Tianhe thought for a while and then took out a golden token with glaring Xuan Energy and some words appeared on it. This was a special token worth billions of Xuan Crystals. This was the only kind that could be used in long-distance communication.

After he sent the message, he waited quietly. In the time for two incense sticks to burn, the golden token glowed. Lu Tianhe glanced over and said, "Let's go back. My father is informed of what has happened. He is heading back towards the Mystic Armor Mountain. If Great Patriarch is not there, then it's him for sure."

"Okay!"

It was useless for them to chase after such a powerful warrior. What could they do even if they did catch up with him? Not even Lu Zhengtan could stop him if he was dead set on saving Lu Li.

Lu Tianhe took out another Iron-armored Ship and flew towards the Mystic Armor City. He told the 10 Noble Lord Realm warriors not to say a single word or they would be killed.

After they flew for less than half a day, the token glowed again. Lu Tianhe took a look, sighed and said, "It is Fifth Great Uncle. Father had a meeting with him and Fifth Great Uncle is at the Buddha Mountain right now. Father said they had a secret meeting and he is willing to let it go. But from today on, Lu Li and Lu Feixue… will be deleted from our pedigree and they will no longer be disciples of the Lu Family."

Patriarch Feng and the other patriarch nodded but said nothing. After all, Lu Zhengtan had made a deal with Great Patriarch so nothing they said now would be of any use.

"The Buddha Mountain?"

Patriarch Feng's emotions were mixed. The Buddha Mountain was 30 miles to the west of the Mystic Armor City. Great Patriarch going there was a demonstration that he would stay out of the Lu Family matters from now on, but he was not too far away so if the Lu Family was in serious trouble, he would still lend a helping hand.

Lu Zhengtan asked Lu Tianhe and the others to go back after two or three days. They would announce that Lu Li and Lu Feixue had gone into the Omen Island which would calm the civilians and escorts down. Otherwise, if the public learned that Great Patriarch was not on the side of the Family Master, disciples of low and middle levels would lose their confidence in the family.

Lu Zhengtan and Great Patriarch had made a deal. Lu Zhengtan would stop hunting down Lu Li and he would spread the word that Lu Li and the others were sent to the Omen Island without a hitch.

Many people at the Mystic Armor City sighed and they felt sorry for Lu Li. After all, he was the grandson of Lu Zhengyang and he was talented. When he was in the Soul Pond Realm, he could already kill warriors of the Noble Lord Realm. He was no weaker than Lu Renhuang.

Lu Renhuang never showed up. Lu Li and Lu Feixue were at the Omen Island. All the disciples of the Lu Family had accepted the fact that the Lu Family had entered a new era. The age of Lu Zhengyang had passed.

It had been 10 years!

It was not good for a Family Patriarch to go off grid for 10 years. If he was really in closed-door cultivation, he should have come out once or twice. Lu Family was sealed off and there were rumors of many varieties. Actually, many people had guessed that something must have happened to Lu Zhengyang.

Lu Li had traveled a long distance. Of course, it would still take some time before he could leave the eastern Central Plains.

The Mystic Armor Region was not far away from the ocean and average Noble Lord Realm warriors could fly past the ocean in four or five days. The Iron-armored Ship was specially made so it was twice as fast as Noble Lord Realm warriors. Lu Li should go past the ocean in two days.

Yu Huashen and Ming Yu spent all this time in trepidation. They activated the Inhibition Formation on the Iron-armored Ship so it was invisible. At the same time, they tried to avoid all the cities, big or small, and they had chosen to travel in the wild.

Lu Li didn't seem to be worried. Since Great Patriarch had made a move, he wouldn't leave it unfinished. He said that he would clear out the obstacles so Lu Li should be able to fly pas the ocean smoothly.

Of course, passing the ocean was not equal to safety. It was normal for Lu Zhengtan to send someone their way. Lu Li didn't worry about what would happen later as his mind was occupied by another matter.

Where would they go?

He could not rely on the Lu Family now. He had only himself to count on. He had to rely on himself to cultivate, to save his parents, and to find Lu Ling!

Cultivation required resources. Without enough power, he could neither save his parents nor find Lu Ling. Even if he found her, how could he save her from that powerful warrior?

Ghost Snake Granny was at the Noble Lord Realm and she was strong. The warrior that could take Lu Ling from her and that understood the seventh-rank Holy Light Profound Meaning must be at least at the Human Sovereign Realm.

Lu Li thought he might be able to seek shelter in a big force and become a member of the External Clan so he could leverage their resources to cultivate.

What would qualify as a big force?

Lu Li wouldn't regard a sixth-ranked one as powerful enough, but he knew no seventh-rank force. So, he turned his target to the 12 Royal Families.

An enticing and beautiful girl sprang to his mind, Jiang Qiling!

Jiang Qiling was indebted to him. If he were to go to the Pavilion of Delicacy, Jiang Qiling would help him. On the other hand, if the Pavilion of Delicacy learned his identity, would they take him in?

Both the Lu Family and the Jiang Family were royal families. Would the Lu Family have the guts to take in Jiang Family disciples as warriors of the External Clan? It would be an act of challenge to the Jiang Family.

"Never mind!"

On second thought, Lu Li decided not to go to the Pavilion of Delicacy. The main reason was that he didn't want to be under somebody else's roof. He was an untamed person, and he might create trouble in a big family where there were abundant rules.

If he could not rely on other families, then he had to fight for his own territory.

Without a territory, he couldn't obtain any resources, so how could he cultivate? How could he enlist powerful warriors? Without them, he couldn't go and look for Lu Ling.

"I shall go to the Northern Desert!"

Lu Li made up his mind soon. Northern Desert was where he came from and where the Cyan Phoenix Race and the Mammoth Race lived. Those were his loyal warriors. As long as he went back, he could unify the Northern Desert and establish a new empire!

Resources of the Northern Desert couldn't compare with those from the Central Plains. Nevertheless, when he controlled the entire Northern Desert, he could get more resources. He could sell those at the Central Plains for Xuan Crystals with which he could purchase other rare Mystical Materials.

That being said…

There was a big problem in going back to the Northern Desert!

The Lu Family already knew that he came from the Northern Desert. Would they send someone to hunt him down there? Any Human Sovereign Realm warrior from the Lu Family would be unstoppable in the Northern Desert.

Lu Li was in deep thoughts. He pondered about it on the Iron-armored Ship for an entire day. In the end, he made up his mind and decided to risk it.

He believed that Great Patriarch would protect him. Great Patriarch told him not to do anything against the Lu Family disciples when he was accomplished in the future.

Since Great Patriarch would protect the Lu Family disciples, then as the grandson of Lu Zhengyang, he must be under Great Patriarch's protection as well. Otherwise, Great Patriarch wouldn't have come to save him. Maybe Great Patriarch had made a deal with Lu Zhengtan to spare Lu Li from being killed.

They were on the road for more than a day now, and there was nobody chasing them which meant that Great Patriarch had done something for them.

"Okay, I will go back to the Northern Desert!"

Lu Li shook his head and drove the messy thoughts away from his mind. He had made a decision. Back at the Northern Desert, the sky was the limit.
