"Murder?"
If it were anything else, Lu Li wouldn't mind. But someone had died. Lu Li had to take it seriously.
Ye Luo was his brother and Lu Hongyu's husband. Powerful warriors of the Ye Family had been fighting with him. How many years had they been supporting him?
He could not let the Ye Family down.
"Someone!"
Lu Li suddenly stood up and shouted from the balcony. A man rushed in from outside the yard, got down on one knee and said, "Young Master Li!"
Lu Li waved his hand and said emotionlessly, "Go and get Ye Cha."
Jiang Qiling stood up as well. She said with determination, "Darling, you go and deal with this. I will leave it to you.
If Jiang Wuwo has done something wrong, punish him. Don't worry about me.
Apart from grandpa, I don't care about anyone else in the Jiang Family. "
Lu Li patted her face and said, "Don't worry. Go and cultivate. I know what I am doing."
Jiang Qiling forced a smile. She was relieved. She turned around and left.
She was not close to Jiang Wuwo. When she was young, she even wanted to kill Jiang Wuwo.
She felt so awkward because she didn't know how to tell Lu Li about this. Now that she had told him, she was less worried. Lu Li always had a sense of propriety. He would handle this well.
"Whoosh ~"
In the time for three incense sticks to burn, a man came in and jumped to the balcony. He bowed to Lu Li and said, "Saint Lord!"
The Cyan Phoenix Race and the Mammoth Race had taken back their ancestral lands. Their people had been relocated out from that small world. But recently, many of them had been relocated to the Prison of Wood.
Lu Li had Ye Cha in charge of intelligence and monitoring the entire Great Land. The Cyan Phoenix Race was the best scout of the Great Land.
Ye Cha had made some progress over the years. But he was only at the middle stage of the Human Sovereign Realm. He was too old to make a big breakthrough.
"What is going on with Jiang Wuwo and Zi Lian?
Why didn't you tell me at once? "Lu Li stared at him coldly, blaming him for not reporting such an important matter earlier.
"Saint Lord, please forgive me!"
Ye Cha bowed again and said, "You were in seclusion yesterday, so I couldn't see you. I could only report it to Madam Ling. She said she would tell you and told me to leave it alone."
Lu Li nodded. Ye Cha continued, "Actually, it is not a big deal. Nobody knew that Zi Lian and Jiang Wuwo are related. Recently, Zi Lian found a nice place in the Prison of Wood and she is going to build a manor there to live in.
However … a Young Master from the Ye Clan had his eyes on that place first. Zi Lian was so overbearing that she wanted to occupy it. The Ye Clan's Young Master refused to accept it, and both parties had a conflict. Zi Lian made a move and killed the Ye Clan's Young Master.
Later, when the Ye Family wanted to make trouble for Zi Lian, Jiang Wuwo came out and said that Zi Lian was his woman. If the Ye Family insisted on making trouble for Zi Lian, he would have to declare war. "
Lu Li frowned. As far as he knew, Zi Lian was not such an overbearing person. Could it be that her personality had changed because of him?
"Saint Lord!"
Ye Cha reminded Lu Li, "I suggest you go to the Prison of Wood. I heard that Zi Lian is related to you and Jiang Wuwo is your father-in-law. The Lu Family Patriarch may find it difficult to handle.
He did put some pressure on the young master of the Ye Family, who died, was Ye Luo's cousin. That uncle of his only had one son. I think there will be more trouble. "
"Alright."
Lu Li went to his room and had a few words with Jiang Qiling. She didn't want to see such an embarrassing scene and told Lu Li to handle it by himself.
"Let's go!"
Lu Li waved his hand and flew up with Ye Cha. They crossed the valley and arrived at a big city.
There were several big cities. Ke Mang had built a Teleportation Formation in this city that could lead to the entrance of the towering mountain.
"Grand Master!"
The ones guarding the Teleportation Formation were warriors of the Demon-slaying Hall. They dropped to one knee as soon as they saw Lu Li.
Many people in the city had noticed Lu Li. They were disciples from the affiliated families of the four major families, such as the Palace of Blue Lions, Red Lunar, Palace of Immortal's Inquiries and Palace of Heaven's Roars.
Many of them wanted to greet Lu Li, to familiarize themselves with him and to establish a relationship.
However, Lu Li's status was high. Who dared to disturb him for no reason?
Lu Li paid no attention to others. He stepped into the Teleportation Formation with Ye Cha and arrived at the entrance of the towering mountain.
A small city had been built here, and the entrance of Skypiercing Mountain had a large formation built. It was surrounded by soldiers, and ordinary people were not allowed to enter.
"Grand Master!"
The guards at the entrance were all from the Demon-slaying Hall. This was arranged by Patriarch of Law Enforcement.
In this way, disciples of the major families would not make trouble. After all, there were many playboys in the major families. With the guards from the Demon-slaying Hall, who would dare to make trouble?
Lu Li entered the towering mountain and arrived at the Prison of Wood. There was also a small city built at the entrance.
Lu Li did not enter the city. He asked Ye Cha, "Where are they now?"
"Master Jiang and Lady Zi Lian should have gone back to the Qiling City, right?"
Ye Cha answered, "The Ye Family is at the Ye City. The two cities are not far from each other. There are several big cities built at the Prison of Wood. The four families each have one."
Lu Li had not been to the Prison of Wood recently. He did not know how things were going. He waved his hand and said, "Show me the way. Let's go to the Ye City first."
After all, someone from the Ye Family had died. Lu Li must go and comfort the Ye Family first.
The Ye City was not far away from the Ye City. Ye Cha didn't bother to teleport to the small city. She flew with Lu Li.
The Prison of Wood was covered with forests. Many of the forests used to be inhabited by tree monsters. But now, those tree monsters and Beasts of Primordial Chaos were all killed.
Therefore, it was a comfortable journey for them. Even though the Beasts of Primordial Chaos and tree monsters were all killed, the scenery was not damaged. Along the way, Lu Li could see many beautiful sceneries.
In less than an hour, a big city came into Lu Li's sight.
The city was built at the peak of a mountain. The mountain was as smooth as a mirror, like huge stone pillars. The city built at the peak of the mountain was quite impressive.
At the foot of the mountain, there were stone stairs spiraling up to make it easier for the average people to go in and out of the city.
That being said, the Prison of Wood had not been conquered yet. Young warriors and civilians would not leave the city at will.
There were warriors patrolling outside. Seeing Lu Li and Ye Cha coming, a team of warriors flew up and greeted them nervously.
Recognizing that it was Lu Li, the warriors dropped to their knees in fear.
"Is Ye Luo in the city?"
Lu Li asked. A Noble Lord Realm leader answered, "Young Master has been cultivating in the city. Today, he went to the Cherry Blossom Valley. Young Master Li …"
The leader wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. He seemed to be wronged and angry. Lu Li knew what he wanted to say.
Lu Li didn't say anything. He just asked Ye Cha, "Where is the Cherry Blossom Valley?"
"The Cherry Blossom Valley, the one that Lady Lian is interested in!"
Ye Cha explained in a low voice, "The Cherry Blossom Valley is between the Ye City and the Qiling City. Young Master Ye Luo went there. I think … there will be another conflict."
"Show me the way. Let's go!"
