"Ha, ha, ha, heroes come from the young. Divine Son Lu, you have helped us vent our anger!"
"That's right, Divine Son. The Hell Palace won't be able to hold their heads up for a while."
"Divine Son, well done. It's a pity that you didn't bring Su Yueqin back. She has the Astral Moon Body.
If the Divine Son takes Su Yueqin as a female slave, then our Rakshasa Palace will be greatly respected. "
"You didn't kill Meng the Third?
If you did, we would have made a fortune. "
"The Three Devils of Rakshasa have done a lot of evil. They have suffered the consequences of their own actions. Well done, Divine Son!"
"…"
Compliments were heard in the hall. They were from some regular patriarchs. Divine Son's status was higher than that of regular patriarchs, but he had no real power. Some patriarchs did.
In fact, these patriarchs with real power could have ignored Lu Li. But everyone knew how to put up a front. It was not a problem for them to say some nice words.
None of the patriarchs sitting at the head of the table said anything. Lu Li knew that they were the real big shots, people who were on the same level as Hu Bugui.
Hu Bugui introduced the patriarchs one by one. Those sitting at the head of the table were the most powerful and most capable people in the Rakshasa Palace.
They were the Chief Patriarch who was in charge of all affairs of the Rakshasa Palace, the Discipline Patriarch, the External Affair Patriarch, the Internal Affair Patriarch, the Intelligence Patriarch, and Hu Bugui, the leader of the Battle Hall.
There were 10 seats. If all of them were occupied, there would be three Great Patriarchs and one patriarch with a higher status.
But the three Great Patriarchs didn't care about these chores. The other patriarch had been cultivating in seclusion and rarely showed up.
The group of patriarchs were all fourth tribulation warriors. There were nearly 100 of them, and this was not all the patriarchs of the Rakshasa Palace.
Also, many died in the war with the Hell Palace. The depth of the resources of the Rakshasa Palace could be seen.
Hu Bugui and the others were clearly at the later stage of the fourth tribulation. Chief Patriarch was unpredictable. Lu Li felt that he might be at the peak of the fourth tribulation.
There were also the three Great Patriarchs and Luo Feiyan. Lu Li suspected that they might be at the fifth tribulation!
After all, the Great Elder might be at the peak of the fourth tribulation. Even if the Grand Elder was also at the peak of the fourth tribulation, Luo Feiyan alone could suppress the entire Rakshasa Palace.
Without absolute combat power, how could he suppress a group of demons?
A Great Emperor was a Seventh Tribulation, a Feudal Lord was a Sixth Tribulation, and Devil Sea's strongest expert was a Fifth Tribulation Heaven God. This was understandable.
After all, the Rakshasa Sea was very big. Countless demons swarmed in here. It would not be an exaggeration to say that the strongest among the demons was a Fifth Tribulation powerhouse.
Chief Patriarch and the others were indifferent to Lu Li. They only gave him some words of encouragement.
Lu Li greeted the patriarchs one by one. He was polite to all the patriarchs.
This caused many of the elders to be stunned. Was this the same person who was arrogant outside just now?
Some of the elders even felt overwhelmed by the favor. After all, although they were elders, they did not have any real power and were not well received in Rakshasa Palace. There were more than a hundred elders, but there was only one Divine Child.
Lu Li had to be arrogant when he needed to be, low-key when he needed to be, polite when he needed to be, and angry when he needed to be.
Just now, he had been arrogant to establish his authority. Now, he had to be low-key to leave a good impression among the patriarchs.
Usually, the old guys wouldn't care about young people's business. As long as no one died, the rest was not a big deal.
But he could not afford to offend the old guys. Otherwise, he would suffer in the future. He had just arrived and had no background. If he accidentally offended the patriarchs with real power, he would have a hard time in the future.
After a long introduction, Chief Patriarch asked Lu Li to sit in the first seat on the left. Then, the patriarchs began their discussion.
Divine Child usually had the right to listen in. Divine Child would receive intensive training. In the future, they might not be the successor of the Palace Master, but they would at least be one of the patriarchs with real power.
Of course, Divine Child had no real power. The patriarchs could only listen in. If he had to make some suggestions, the other patriarchs would take it as a reference.
Naturally, Lu Li would not say anything. He sat on the side, keeping a low profile. He kept his head down, like an old monk in meditation.
The discussion lasted for a long time. They talked about many things, such as the allocation of resources, the arrangement of the secret realms, and some internal and external affairs.
There were also reports from the patriarchs in charge of guarding the places they were guarding.
The meeting lasted for an entire day and was only dismissed at night. Lu Li felt sleepy. He didn't like to deal with these trivial things. He never did before.
The Rakshasa Palace had a large territory. They controlled many secret realms, small worlds, broken spaces, and some island secrets.
There were so many people and so many powerful warriors. All of them needed resources. The Rakshasa Island alone could not support so many people.
Therefore, the Rakshasa Palace actually controlled a large territory and more places they secretly controlled. All these places needed to be managed. Naturally, there were more trivial things to deal with.
After the meeting, Hu Bugui kindly took Lu Li to a side chamber. Lu Li wouldn't go to Hu Bugui's side for the time being, but Hu Bugui had sent a message of goodwill and he was a patriarch of the Hall of Warfare. Lu Li didn't have to turn him away.
In the side chamber, Hu Bugui said many things to Lu Li. The gist of it was that Lu Li should focus on cultivation and the Hall of Internal Affairs would send him many top-level resources. Lu Li should not wander around for a while and he should cultivate at the Blue Cloud Peak for a couple of years.
Once he became stronger and stabilized his position, he would be able to travel around. He could visit some mystic realms, stroll around some blessed lands, go to some ruins to comprehend, and so on.
"Top-level resources?"
Lu Li's eyes glowed. He took the initiative to ask, "Patriarch Hu, are there any elixirs for body refinement?
I am cultivating the Supreme Divine Body. If you can provide me with endless elixirs, my body will be improved quickly. "
"You are thinking too much …"
Patriarch Hu said with a bitter smile, "Divine Son is special but the resources are limited. The most important thing is that you need a large number of elixirs for body refinement.
Think about it. How many people are there in the Rakshasa Palace?
Don't patriarchs need to cultivate their bodies?
If you only need some, it is okay. I can ask for it for you.
But if you want the Hall of Internal Affairs to provide you with endless elixirs, that is impossible.
The path to the Supreme Divine Body is too difficult and it requires too many resources. Even a lord can't provide for it, let alone the Rakshasa Palace, unless the lord is the descendant of an emperor, and the emperor must still be alive. "
Seeing the sadness in Lu Li's eyes, Hu Bugui stood up, patted Lu Li's shoulder and said, "I have a personal suggestion. Don't take this path. It is difficult. Even if your body is 100 times stronger and you can fight against the peak of the Fourth Tribulation, so what?
There are countless warriors at the Third Heaven of the Fifth Tribulation. They can kill you easily.
If you want your body to be 100 times stronger, you will need an enormous amount of elixirs. The Rakshasa Palace … cannot afford it. "
"What is more …"
