Liu Yi's words were sincere. That was what she thought.
She was not in love with Lu Li, but she didn't hate him. She just felt comfortable with him.
Lu Li had done her a great favor. The Liu Family would never be able to repay what Lu Li and his sister did for the rest of their lives.
Patriarch Seven and the others might not feel anything, but Liu Yi herself felt she owed Lu Li a lot.
Liu Yi herself said that the day she became the Family Patriarch, she would never marry anyone in her life.
She had made a vow that she would spend her entire life to make the Liu Family stronger, to avenge Liu Rufeng and to destroy the Yu Family.
She knew very well how cruel and dirty the world was!
She was the Family Patriarch of the Liu Family. She might sacrifice her virginity for the Liu Family.
If so, she might as well save her first time for a man she somewhat liked.
More importantly, Liu Yi had been suffering and tired lately.
Not only physically, but also mentally. Her beloved grandpa was dead. The glorious Liu Family had become a thing of the past. Nobody comforted her. She had to shoulder all the suffering and tiredness by herself.
She was one year older than Lu Li. She used to be the most beloved Young Lady. Her mental endurance was not strong to begin with.
Now that she had become the Family Patriarch, she was under even more pressure. She had to find a place to vent her stress and tiredness. Otherwise, she would be driven crazy.
Therefore, tonight, she asked to share a room with Lu Li without any sense of shame or reservation.
She just said such shameful words. She wanted to let it all out, to repay Lu Li's kindness, and to leave no regrets in her life.
However …
She was overthinking. She didn't know Lu Li's real personality.
Lu Ling loved reading since she was little. She learned a lot about how to conduct oneself and how to do things from books. She instilled these into Lu Li.
One of them was that a man must be responsible and responsible.
Just like what Lu Ling said in the battle at the Di Long Tribe — to your brothers, you could sacrifice yourself.
To your loved ones, you could give up everything.
If he had sex with Liu Yi, then Liu Yi would be his woman, his lover.
He would give up everything for his lover. How could he not be responsible?
How could he ignore Liu Yi and the Liu Family?
If he had to worry about the Liu Family, how could he join a Fifth-rank Royal Family? How could he go to the Cyan Plains to find Lu Ling? How could he go back to the Lu Family to save his parents?
Once a person was tied down and bound, his hands and feet would be tied down.
The goshawk's legs were tied up, so how could it fly?
Lu Li forced himself to calm down again. After a while, he looked at Liu Yi and said apologetically, "I am sorry, Liu Yi. I still have a knot in my heart!
I understand your intentions. Thank you. Rest early, I'm going to cultivate. "
With that said, Lu Li closed his eyes and sat down with his legs crossed. He was in a trance right away.
Looking at Lu Li's well-defined face, Liu Yi's eyes dimmed. Tears ran down from the corner of her eyes. She turned around, curled up and soon fell asleep.
…
The next day, Liu Yi woke up very early. Lu Li slept on the carpet for half the night and woke up in a good mood.
The two seemed to have forgotten what had happened last night. They looked at each other and smiled. After washing up, they went downstairs to eat something and then went straight to the Heaven Prison Chamber of Commerce.
It was so easy to find the Heavenly Prison Chamber of Commerce. It was located on the south side of the square in the middle of the city. There was a majestic super castle. The four big characters of the Heavenly Prison Chamber of Commerce could be seen from afar.
"Temple!"
Lu Li was surprised to see a temple next to the Heavenly Prison Chamber of Commerce. Liu Yi took a look and explained, "Any city of a certain scale will have a temple. Temples are not only found in the Northern Desert. It is said that all the cities in the world have temples."
"Oh, I see."
Lu Li stopped looking at it. They walked towards the Heaven Prison Chamber of Commerce. There were three gates in the distance. There were Heaven Prison Army guards outside each gate.
"I will go and ask."
Lu Li carried the bag with the Blood Caterpillar Fruits in it. He walked to a Heaven Prison Army guard and asked, "I want to sell something. Which gate should I go through?"
"The gate on the right is for us to enter ourselves. The one in the middle is for the buyers. If you want to sell something, go through the gate on the left. There will be someone there to receive you."
The Heaven Prison Army guard was very polite. Lu Li thanked him and walked into the small gate on the left with Liu Yi. Inside was a small hall with two maids.
"Hello, distinguished guest."
A beautiful maid greeted them with a smile. Lu Li once again exclaimed that the people of the Heaven Prison City were so polite. He nodded with a smile to return the greeting. The maid asked, "Distinguished guest, do you want to sell your Mystical Materials?"
After Lu Li's confirmation, the maid asked again, "How many Xuan Crystals do you think your things are worth?
We have different people to receive you according to the value of the items. "
How could Lu Li know how many Xuan Crystals it was?
He didn't even know the quality of the Blood Caterpillar Fruits. Would there be any problems?
He thought about it and casually said, "Thousands of Xuan Crystals."
"Okay, this way please. Our Chief Steward Bai will receive you and give you an estimate of the Mystical Materials."
The maid led the two to a corridor on the left. There were three corridors in the small hall. It seemed that according to the price of the treasures on sale, they would be taken to different places.
After the time it took for half an incense stick to burn, the two arrived at a side chamber. There was a white-haired old man in a black robe sitting there. He should be Chief Steward Bai.
The two sensed him and found that he was a warrior of the Soul Pond Realm. They felt respect for him immediately.
Chief Steward Bai was very polite. Even though he didn't stand up, he had a comfortable smile on his face. He asked the two to sit down and asked someone to serve tea. Then he asked, "What kind of Mystical Materials or treasures do you want to sell?
The Heaven Prison Chamber of Commerce is the largest chamber of commerce at the Thousand-island Lake. The price we can offer will definitely satisfy you. "
Liu Yi looked at Lu Li. Her eyes indicated that she wanted him to make the decision. Lu Li stood up, cupped his fists and said, "Lord Bai, before I sell, I want to make sure of one thing. Is it absolutely safe to sell things here?
What I mean is — can we keep our information confidential? Nobody outside knows that we are the ones selling these things? "
"Ha, ha, ha!"
Chief Steward Bai laughed out loud. He shook his head and said, "Brother, maybe you don't know much about the Heaven Prison Chamber of Commerce.
This is the chamber of commerce founded by the Old Man of the Heaven Prison himself. For more than 2000 years, nothing went wrong with this chamber of commerce, and nothing that could affect its reputation happened.
If you don't believe me, you can go out and ask around.
We cannot leak any information about our customers. This is the most basic principle of the chamber of commerce. "
Lu Li was completely relieved. He put the package on the table and said, "These are the things we want to sell. Give us a price."
The old man opened the package casually and glanced at it. His expression suddenly became solemn. He picked up a Blood Caterpillar Fruit, looked at it and asked, "Brother, this is … Blood Caterpillar Fruit?"
Lu Li nodded and said, "Yes, this is our improved Blood Caterpillar Fruit. Its efficacy is much stronger than regular Blood Caterpillar Fruits."
