By dusk, Lu Li still couldn't figure it out.
A maid came to report that Ye Cha had prepared a banquet and would come to invite Lu Li in person later.
Lu Li shook his head to get rid of the messy thoughts in his mind. He decided not to think about it anymore.
Anyhow, this matter was to his advantage. His life would not be in danger. Instead, he had a group of henchmen.
What was the truth?
It didn't matter!
At least on the surface, he was the Saint Lord of the Cyan Phoenix Race and the Mammoth Race. It was better to be a master than to be eaten.
Any scheme or scheme must have benefits. What could the Cyan Phoenix Race gain from him?
He couldn't even defeat Ye Xiaoxi with his fighting capacity. He was meaningless to the Cyan Phoenix Race.
Since he was here, he might as well take things as they came.
Lu Li was optimistic. He stopped thinking about it. Why not when he had a master to be his master?
Hunchback Tian didn't think too much either. He looked envious.
Anyhow, it was a good thing. The two of them had become distinguished guests from prisoners.
After a while, Ye Cha and four Patriarchs of the Cyan Phoenix Race came to invite Lu Li and Hunchback Tian in person. They were respectful and humble, like servants.
Lu Li dared not to put on airs of a master. He followed Ye Cha into a hall politely.
A huge square table was set up in the hall. Delicious food was on the table. There were several pretty maids waiting on the side.
Ye Cha asked Lu Li to sit at the head of the table. Then he picked up an earthen jar and proposed a toast. Lu Li gulped it down. He found the wine here was so strong that it burned his throat.
"Saint Lord, have a taste of our food. This small world is not big. There are not many delicacies. Just make do with it, Saint Lord."
Ye Cha pointed to the table of delicacies and said with a smile. Lu Li reached out his chopsticks to pick up a piece of meat. Suddenly, he remembered that Ye Xiaoxi said she wanted to eat humans. Lu Li's hand trembled and he asked, "Clan Leader Ye, this meat … is not human flesh, right?"
"Ha, ha, ha!"
Ye Cha and the four Patriarchs laughed. Ye Cha explained with a smile, "Saint Lord, Xiaoxi was just kidding. We of the Cyan Phoenix Race do not have the habit of eating humans.
These are just to scare people. She has been naughty since she was little. Sorry, Saint Lord. "
"Oh, I see."
Lu Li put his mind at ease and ate a piece of meat. It melted in his mouth and he felt a warm current coming from his stomach. He felt comfortable all over. He was surprised and asked, "Clan Leader Ye, what is this meat?
I think it's very nourishing. "
Ye Cha said lightly, "This is the meat of a Fourth Level Xuan Beast, Heavenly Phoenix. It invaded our tribe two days ago and was killed by Fourth with one slash.
The Heavenly Phoenix's meat can nourish your Qi and blood and strengthen your body. You should eat more. "
"…"
Lu Li and Hunchback Tian looked at each other. Their mouths twitched. Killing a Fourth-rank Xuan Beast in one move meant that the Fourth Patriarch of the Cyan Phoenix Race had definitely reached the Eternal Realm.
Lu Li thought about it and asked out of curiosity, "Clan Leader Ye, there is something I don't know if it is convenient for me to ask?"
"We have no secrets from the Sacred Lord!"
Ye Cha said very sincerely, "What does the Saint Lord want to ask? We will tell you everything we know."
Lu Li nodded and asked, "What … realm are you at?"
Ye Cha answered without hesitation, "The five of us are all at the peak of the Eternal Realm. It is a pity that we lack some Mystical Materials in this small world. Otherwise, we would have forged our Fate Bead and reached the Noble Lord Realm."
"Noble Lord Realm!"
Lu Li and Hunchback Tian were shocked. Noble Lord Realm warriors were the most powerful ones at the Northern Desert.
There were no Human Sovereign Realm warriors at the Northern Desert. Noble Lord Realm warriors were the supreme ones. However, there were five powerful warriors that could reach the Noble Lord Realm at any time.
"What about the Mammoth Race?
How is it over there? "
Hunchback Tian asked out of curiosity. Lu Li added, "Don't the Mammoth Race live with you?"
"They are in the mountains to the west, only three miles away from here."
Ye Cha said, pointing to the west. Then he explained after some thoughts, "The Clan Leader and three Patriarchs of the Mammoth Race have reached the peak of the Eternal Realm as well. They also lack some Mystical Materials so they cannot forge their Fate Bead and make the breakthrough."
"Three?"
Hunchback Tian exclaimed. The two races had nine warriors at the peak of the Eternal Realm.
If they could get out of the Northern Desert, they could easily defeat many families and forces. Once they all made the breakthrough, they could even fight against Fifth-rank Royal Families.
Lu Li digested the information and ate some meat. Then he asked the most important question, "Clan Leader Ye, can we get out of this small world?
We came from the Thousand-island Lake at the Northern Desert. Can we go back? "
Ye Cha nodded and said, "Since you can come in, you can go out.
You touched the Teleportation Inhibition Formation and teleported to a place. There must be a Teleportation Inhibition Formation nearby.
Later, I will send someone to look for it. Don't worry, Saint Lord. You can leave whenever you want. "
"Okay."
Lu Li and Hunchback Tian were relieved. The weight in their minds was lifted.
They enjoyed the delicacies with peace of mind. Lu Li drank with the other Patriarchs. Then he remembered what Ye Cha said and asked with confusion, "Send someone to look for the Teleportation Inhibition Formation?
Clan Leader Ye Cha, you haven't gone out in the past 5000 years? "
"No!"
Ye Cha said with bitterness in his eyes, "Our forefathers left us with instructions that we cannot go out without you, Saint Lord.
Also … the Teleportation Inhibition Formation here was built by our forefathers. We cannot go out unless we reach the Noble Lord Realm.
It just so happens that this small world is lacking some Mystical Materials. Therefore, for thousands of years, none of our disciples have gone out. "
"Of course, even if we could reach the Noble Lord Realm, we still wouldn't dare to go out!"
Ye Cha paused for a bit. His expression became even more gloomy. He sighed and said, "The enemies of our two races are too powerful.
Once our people go out, our two races will be wiped out immediately. "
Lu Li frowned and asked in confusion, "Clan Leader Ye, since you haven't gone out, how do you know that your enemies are still here?
What if they are wiped out?
What if they are in decline? "
"Wiped out?
That is impossible … "
Ye Cha shook his head and said with a smile, "Saint Lord, you don't know how powerful our enemies are. They stand at the peak of the Central Plains, the most powerful family in the world.
How can such a powerful family be wiped out after only a few thousand years?
Also … the enemies of our two races are not just one family, but six, six of the 10 most powerful families of the Central Plains. "
"…"
Lu Li touched his nose in embarrassment. It was said that the Central Plains was the largest land in the world, dozens of times larger than the Northern Desert.
The Central Plains was the place with the most powerful warriors in the world. Any powerful family from the Central Plains could sweep across the Northern Desert.
But the enemies of the Cyan Phoenix Race and the Mammoth Race were six of the 10 most powerful families of the Central Plains?
Lu Li, as their Saint Lord, was going to take them back to their ancestral land and restore their glory?
In other words —
Lu Li was going to help the two races fight against the six most powerful families of the Central Plains?
On this thought, Lu Li frowned and the corner of his mouth twitched.
He couldn't even go to the Central Plains now, let alone fight against the six families. Any sweeper from the six families could kill him with one slap.
Ye Cha looked at Lu Li and vaguely guessed what he was thinking. Ye Cha smiled and said, "Saint Lord, don't feel too much pressure. You are still young and we have enough patience to wait for you to rise up.
Saint Lord, since you are the one our ancestors predicted with the Heaven Augury Spell, then one day, you will rise up. We will … try our best to help you. "
