Chapter 368: Odd Quietness

Lu Li did not know what happened later, nor did he care.

He was influenced by Lu Ling. If others treated him well, he would return the favor. He would pay back someone he was indebted to, but he would fight back anyone who dared to make trouble for him.

At first, on account of Lu Feixue, he swallowed the humiliation for the entire afternoon. But Lu Zhengtan didn't pay attention to him at all. Lu Li could feel that Lu Zhengtan was doing this deliberately. Lu Zhengtan was trying to establish his authority by humiliating Lu Li or waiting to teach Lu Li a lesson after he felt completely enraged.

Lu Li was not a gentle fellow. He didn't want to worry about so many things now. He went directly back to the Rising Dragon Pavilion and decided that he would accept his fate if Lu Zhengtan really wanted to make life difficult for him.

Of course, he acted as if nothing happened after he was back at the Rising Dragon Pavilion. When Lu Feixue asked, Lu Li only said that Lu Zhengtan was too busy to see him and that he should come back to cultivate first.

Lu Li went to his room and slept soundly. He minded nothing. The next morning, after he had breakfast with Lu Feixue, he went back to cultivation again.

He thought that he should carry on with closed-door cultivation and he would only come out if Lu Zhengtan created some trouble for him. He thought he had to take measures according to the actual situation. But he was surprised—Lu Zhengtan didn't send someone over. For three days, it was peaceful and quiet. Lu Suan and Lu Ni didn't try to pick a fight with Lu Li either.

Lu Li came out from his cultivation. He asked the escorts and made sure that nobody was here for him. He went back to cultivation after some thoughts.

He had been cultivating very quickly. He felt like the blood essence was inexhaustible. He made rapid progress which made him excited. He cherished the opportunity and wished that he could cultivate for 24 hours a day.

For the next few days, it was quiet as well. Even Patriarch Four and Patriarch Eight could understand the reason, not to mention Lu Li and Lu Feixue. Lu Zhengtan didn't make life harder for Lu Li. Not even Lu Suan and Lu Ni who were fond of making troubles had any reactions.

Lu Suan and Lu Ni were now the top level young masters of the Lu Family, with higher status than Lu Lin and Lu Hongyu. The two brothers were usually so arrogant and haughty at the Lu Family and the Mystic Armor City. Why were they being so tolerant to Lu Li who was challenging their status?

After Lu Suan and Lu Ni came back, they went to closed-door cultivation. They went to one of the best cultivation rooms in the family. It seemed that their trip was rewarding and they would love to take the chance to improve their powers.

Many people of the family were relieved that those two didn't make any troubles. Since Lu Li was also in cultivation, there was no cause for conflicts. Lu Zhengtan went out after he lived on the Mystic Armor Mountain for a couple days. He was out to inspect their businesses and properties. He had been away for a long time so it was normal that he would want to check their properties after he was back.

The Mystic Armor City quieted down. Lu Li put the entire matter behind him after he cultivated for a couple more days. Apart from the occasional chitchat and dining with Lu Feixue, he spent all his time in cultivation.

Half a month passed.

Patriarch Eight and the others were relieved. It seemed that Lu Zhengtan gave an order that made Lu Fenghou, Lu Liantian, Lu Suan and Lu Ni dare not to make a fuss. It was the best situation for both Patriarch Eight and Patriarch Four.

People of the Palace of Blue Lions should be at the Cyan Plains at the moment. As long as Lu Ling could be brought back, Lu Li's identity would be made certain. Lu Renhuang's whereabouts could be learned as well.

That being said…

Patriarch Eight and others knew very well that the return of Lu Renhuang wouldn't change a thing. But they were still longing for the return of their future Family Patriarch. It had been 20 years. What if Lu Renhuang had reached the Earth Immortal Realm?

18 days soon passed by. At the break of dawn, Lu Li opened his eyes. His eyes were filled with relief and excitement. There wasn't much blood essence left in his body. The speed of blood essence surging out was slowing down. Luckily, Lu Li had made it to the peak of Soul Pond Realm.

There was only a small gap from the peak of Soul Pond Realm to the Fate Wheel Realm. Lu Li was talented. The Lu Family had enough top level elixirs. Even if the Lu Family wouldn't give him, he had Heaven Serpent Fruits. Reaching the Fate Wheel Realm was a sure thing.

His Soul Pond was times larger with abundant and profound Xuan Energy. The liquid Xuan Energy was showing tendency to become solid. This was a sign of the peak of the Soul Pond Realm without a doubt.

Lu Li was overjoyed. He was ready to come out of cultivation now. He got up and saw Little White in the corner. It leaped forward with excitement and jumped into Lu Li's arms.

Lu Li threw Little White some Soul Crystals but it didn't eat them. It looked like it was complaining. Lu Li patted Little White's head fondly and he knew that Little White was bored.

Little White was born to be restless. At the Northern Desert, it had a lot of places to go to. But at the Mystic Armor Mountain, Lu Li could not allow it to wander off.

"Little White, just hang in there. I will show you around later on."

Lu Li sighed. He had no other choice. First of all, he had to cultivate. Second, the Lu Family was sealed off. He couldn't leave without a reason. The family wouldn't give permission.

He walked out with Little White. Instead of cultivating, Lu Feixue sat by herself, absent-minded.

Lu Li's footsteps alarmed her. She turned over and said with a smile, "Lu Li, you have come out."

"Yes, I have reached the peak of Soul Pond Realm." Lu Li grinned.

"That is good!"

Lu Feixue nodded but she was not surprised. For one thing, Lu Li was Lu Renhuang's son so he must be talented. Also, Lu Li had taken in an entire pond's of blood essence. Lu Li might not be clear about the value of blood essence but she was.

Seeing that Lu Feixue was not cultivating, Lu Li asked with concern, "Aunt, how come you are not cultivating the Noble Lord Realm? Are there any problems?"

"No rush!"

Lu Feixue answered with a smile, "It's been quite some time since I cultivated. Plus, I was a bit weak physically. I need some time to adjust and restore my body to the optimal state. If I start right now, I will be wasting our resources."

"Oh, I understand." Lu Li tumbled to the truth. He posed another question after some thoughts, "Are there anything going on in our family right now?"

"No!"

Lu Feixue frowned and replied, "Family Master is out to do his inspections. Lu Suan and Lu Ni are both in closed-door cultivation. Nothing is going on with Second or Third Patriarch, either."

"Lu Zhengtan is away?"

Lu Li's eyes flickered. He stood up at once and said, "I am about to ask for materials for the Fate Wheel Realm from Patriarch Eight. It's best that Lu Zhengtan is not in. I'll go now, aunt."

"Behave yourself. He is your grandpa's big brother. You cannot call his name."

Lu Feixue stared at Lu Li, but she grinned as Lu Li went out in a hurry. Then her expressions grew more complicated. In her eyes, there was everlasting sorrow.

Lu Li walked out in strides and rushed over to the Hall of Patriarchs. Instead of letting someone report at once, he asked the escorts with a smile, "Who are in there?"

The escorts could tell that Lu Li was up to no good judging by his actions. Of course, they didn't have the courage to say that out loud. One of them replied, "Both Patriarch Eight and Patriarch Four are in there."

Lu Li smiled from ear to ear and said, "Okay! Good. Go and tell them that I have good news."

The escort went in to report and then brought Lu Li in. Lu Li bowed to Patriarch Eight and Patriarch Four with respect and said, "Greetings, Patriarch Four, Patriarch Eight."

The two patriarchs looked at each other. Somehow, they felt something was about to go wrong. Nothing good would happen when Lu Li acted with so much respect. Patriarch Eight asked, "What good news? I will slap you if you lie to us!"

"It's good, ha, ha!" Lu Li held his head up high and said, "I have been working so hard on cultivation through day and night. In a month's time, I have reached the peak of the Soul Pond Realm from the initial stage. Isn't this wonderful?"

The two patriarchs rolled their eyes. Lu Li had taken in an entire pond of blood essence. His cultivation progress was expected by them. What kind of good news was this?

Seeing that the two had no reaction, Lu Li continued with a grin, "Patriarchs, seeing that I am so diligent, do you think I should be rewarded? I can take some top level elixirs, some weapons and armors of the Holy Grade and some Mystical Materials for me to reach the Fate Wheel Realm, like the Heaven Serpent Fruit and Rising Dragon Grass…"

"Get lost!"

Patriarch Four and Patriarch Eight shouted angrily at Lu Li simultaneously.
