Blazing Huo actually had another option. He could let the formation in the underground palace explode, which would cause destruction on both sides.

Besides, the destruction might only be on one side because Lu Li had Relic armor. In addition, in the precise moment of the explosion, Lu Li could go into the Wicked Bead. Given the strength of the Wicked Bead, as long as Lu Li was inside, he could stay alive.

As for the death of the Deaf Taoist? What was the point of that? The immortal’s body might remain unharmed as well. Those were the reasons that Blazing Huo did not set off the formation and had chosen to surrender.

The Deaf Taoist ranked No.4 among the Purgatory’s Top 10 and Chen Tianxian was the Family Patriarch of the Chen Family and ruler of the Central Imperial Universe. Both were Lu Li’s soul slaves. This made Blazing Huo felt more comfortable and less shameful.

That being said, Blazing Huo did not give in at once. He negotiated Lu Li about some terms including making Lu Li swear that he would set Blazing Huo free after he destroyed the Yan Family or before he ascended to the Divinity and that the Huo Family’s safety and interests must be guaranteed.

Those were not difficult terms. Afterward, Lu Li first asked Blazing Huo to close the Formation of Blaze. Deaf Taoist was barely clinging to life as of now. Being burnt for longer, he would turn into ashes.

Blazing Huo stopped the blaze and Lu Li halted the immortal’s body. Both parties began to talk over the terms. Blazing Huo’s requirements were reasonable. He was merely worried that Lu Li would take eternal control of him or have him killed after he was used and wipe out the Huo Family!

Those things could happen. There were people that had twisted personality and were inhumane. They would promise anything to a potential soul slave but then abuse or murder their soul slaves afterward at will.

But Lu Li was not such a person…

He had had many soul slaves. He never abused any of them, not to mention contradict himself. He had set Master of Fairy Fox and Master of Haechi free. Lu Li did not think that Blazing Huo was asking for too much, so he agreed readily.

After taking the blood oath, Lu Li planted a soul seed in Blazing Huo, turning him into a soul slave.

Lu Li did not know if a soul slave of such powers could affect his cultivation. But this was not his concern at the moment. He must bring the Deaf Taoist and Blazing Huo to the Prison of Gold and find their way to the Divine Imperial Universe first. Maybe, with their concerted efforts, they could break down the Divine Imperial City.

The Formation of Blaze was off. Lu Li could use his Wicked Bead again. He brought Blazing Huo into the inner hall and asked Patriarch Ye to treat Deaf Taoist.

“Father!”

Lu Li woke Lu Renhuang up. Pointing at Blazing Huo, Lu Li said, “He has surrendered to me and became my soul slave. Do anything you want to get back at him. You can do anything as long as you leave him alive!”

When Lu Li was talking terms with Blazing Huo, Lu Li mentioned that Lu Renhuang must vent his anger. Blazing Huo did not mind. Physical harm could be endured as long as he was not humiliated.

Lu Renhuang’s arm was not recovered yet. He opened his eyes and glared at Blazing Huo. Lu Renhuang’s eyes were filled with coldness and he was seized with murderous intent.

But after a pause, the murderous intent subdued. He waved his hand. “Since you have taken Blazing Huo and had become your soul slave, from now on, he is a servant of the Lu Family. To bully a soul slave is not a glamorous thing and it will not make me pleased.”

Lu Renhuang was not a man that would seek revenge for the smallest grievance. Blazing Huo had surrendered and this should be the end of the matter. Lu Li checked the Deaf Taoist. He was saved but to recover fully would take him about half a month.

Lu Li had expected Lu Renhuang’s action. Lu Li sent Blazing Huo out in case Lu Renhuang would be annoyed.

Lu Renhuang was found and Blazing Huo had surrendered. That was the closure of this matter. Lu Li took a look at the Deaf Taoist who had come back to life. But it would take him about half a month to fully recover.

Lu Li let the Deaf Taoist go to the outer hall and asked Patriarch Ye to take care of him. He also asked Blazing Huo, “Do you have anything you have to do? If not, we will travel to the Prison of Thunder and then go to the Divine Imperial Universe.”

Lu Li had several items on his agenda during this trip. First, to look for Lu Renhuang, second, to wipe out the Yan Family and establish his name in the Nine universes and third, to study the Map of Fundamental Principles in the Prison of Wind.

The study of the Map of Fundamental Principles was not urgent. Lu Li was mainly worried that there would be warriors from the nine universes plotting an invasion to the Heaven Reverse Universe so he wanted to pay the Prison of Gold a visit and overawe the many families.

“Yes!”

Blazing Huo said, “I have run out of the three types of unique flames. I need to collect some in several secluded areas.”

“Fine!”

The most powerful leverage Blazing Huo had was flames. Without unique flames, his powers would be weakened. He would be no different from an average warrior at the peak of the Semi-God Realm. If that were the case, Lu Li would rather not have him as his soul slave.

Therefore, Lu Li did not refuse. He simply asked, “How long will that take?”

Blazing Huo did a rough calculation. “About a month. Two small worlds are in the Prison of Soul and one in the Prison of Darkness.”

“Okay!”

Lu Li waved his hand. “Set off at once and come to meet me at the Prison of Gold as soon as possible. I will assign a man to stay at the Prison of Gold to let you know my whereabouts.”

Blazing Huo left and Lu Li did not linger on. He took back the Immortal’s body and flew away in the Wicked Bead. He took out the map given to him by Blood Emperor’s servant and set off for the east.

Blood Emperor had helped him greatly and pointed the direction this time. Since Lu Li was in the Prison of Soul, he must pay Blood Emperor a visit to express his gratitude.

Afterward, Lu Li would go to the Prison of Thunder. He was not so full of himself to think that he could explore the Prison of Thunder now. He only wanted to bring Little White there. If Little White could endure the thunderbolts in the outer edge, then the Prison of Thunder would be the most suitable place for Little White’s training.

The Deaf Taoist was badly wounded so Lu Li could not ask him to lead the way any longer. He flew in the Wicked Bead slowly. He would go around any strange places. As long as he was careful, he should be okay.

He moved on with a slow speed and would check with psychic power. He saw several people with their minds lost and some Beasts of Primordial Chaos, along with some seemingly risky locations. Lu Li went around those locations. He was only a passer-by and was not here to train.

After flying for four days in peace, Lu Li finally found the place Blood Emperor was staying at. It was a strange land of stone forests. Lu Li was surprised to see that—there was the Ghastly Wind blowing in the stone forests and he could tell where the Soul Biting Ants in the wind.

“Is the Ghastly Wind crossing over the stone forests or has it been hovering here?”

Lu Li wondered. He was about to ask Deaf Taoist to find out when the space outside the stone forests began to move about. Blood Emperor’s servant came. He bowed to Lu Li with respect. “Lord Lu, my master, and Astro Emperor have been expecting you. Please come with me.”

“Astro Emperor?”

Lu Li found the name unfamiliar. Someone was waiting for him with Blood Emperor? Lu Li asked Deaf Taoist to come into the inner hall and said, “Who is Astro Emperor?”

“Oh, the Astro!”

The Deaf Taoist appeared to be scared by the name and explained, “The warrior ranks No.1 among the Purgatory’s Top 10. His skill of fortune-telling is unprecedented. He may not be the most capable fighter in the nine universes, but nobody can come close to him when it comes to pursuing good fortune and avoiding disaster.”

“Fortune-telling?”

Lu Li was taken aback to know that the No.1 among the Purgatory’s Top 10 was a soothsayer…
