Lady Yi was not here, so Liu Wu must not be in the county either. After all, he was the leader of the most powerful Silver Wolf Battle Team of the Liu Family.
Lu Li looked at Lu Ling who winked at him, signaling for him to leave.
"Let's go to that tavern!"
Lu Ling pointed to a luxurious tavern on the east side of the plaza. Lu Li looked at it and said with embarrassment, "Sis, that tavern is quite expensive. I heard it costs 10 Golden Leaves for one night. Let's go to another one."
"So what?
Is it more important than your life? "
Lu Ling said coldly, "This tavern is near the Liu Family. Clearly, it is the property of the Liu Family. Even if Di Ba comes, he won't dare to do anything.
It's just three days. I still have some Golden Leaves I have accumulated over the years. Let's go. "
Lu Li had killed many beasts and Xuan Beasts of low ranks and sold them in the Wu Ling County for some Golden Leaves. Lu Ling had been living frugally, so she did have some money saved up.
They went to the luxurious tavern on the east side. The waiter outside the door stared at them with suspicion. Only when Lu Ling took out a bag of Golden Leaves from her bag did the waiter lead the way with a smile.
They booked two of the best rooms. Lu Ling went back to her room to put away her things and then left the tavern with Lu Li.
In a nearby shop, she helped Lu Li buy two gorgeous warrior robes, while she also bought two relatively expensive and beautiful robes for herself.
"Clothes make the man. Don't let others look down on you when you go to the Liu Family."
Lu Ling explained. She asked Lu Li to wash up and change into a new warrior robe.
After Lu Li changed, Lu Ling looked him up and down carefully. She nodded and said with a smile, "Sure enough, clothes make the man. In the future, my brother will charm a bunch of young ladies of big families."
Lu Li looked like Lu Ling. His facial features were pretty and his body shape was perfect. However, his skin was a bit rough and dark due to living in the wild all year round.
Now that he was wearing a gorgeous white warrior robe, he immediately looked handsome. The wildness in his bones made him look more mature and masculine.
Lu Ling was much more beautiful after she changed into a beautiful robe. It was a pity that one of her legs was lame. Her beautiful face was covered by a veil. Otherwise, she would be a dazzling beauty.
The two went down to have a good meal. Lu Ling asked Lu Li to go back to his room.
When she got back, she took out some white powder from her bag and mixed it with some water. She handed it to Lu Li and said, "Drink it."
"What is this …"
Lu Li smelled something strange. He remembered the tea Lu Ling gave him in the morning. He frowned and asked, "Sis, are you going to burn down the house again?
This is the property of the Liu Family. "
"What are you thinking about?"
Lu Ling glared at Lu Li and explained, "This is for the antidote. You can cultivate Xuan Energy after you drink it."
"Ah?"
Lu Li blinked and then came to his senses. He looked at Lu Ling in shock and said, "Sis, I cannot cultivate Xuan Energy because I am poisoned?"
"That's right!"
Lu Ling said with certainty, "Also, I was the one who poisoned you!
When you were six years old, I had already poisoned you, otherwise you would have been able to cultivate Profound Energy. "
"What?"
Lu Li trembled and his eyes were filled with shock. He didn't doubt that Lu Ling was trying to harm him, but he didn't understand why she would do this.
"If I hadn't poisoned you and allowed you to cultivate Xuan Energy, we would have died a long time ago!"
Lu Ling sighed and said, "I suspect that the death of our grandpa has something to do with Di Ba and the several old guys in the tribe.
When our grandpa's body was sent back, I clearly remember that Di Ba looked at us with murderous intent. If it weren't for Sixth Granduncle, we would have been exterminated … "
"Think about it. If you could cultivate Xuan Energy at a young age, you would be gifted. When you grow up, you will definitely become a powerful warrior.
When you find out the cause of our grandpa's death, will you seek revenge?
How could Di Ba nurture a tiger to invite calamity?
Once you cultivated Xuan Energy too early, only death awaited us. "
"I found a kind of herb in the ancient books left by my father. I successfully found it in the mountains. This herb is harmless to humans. It can only prevent you from cultivating Xuan Energy.
Now, after the antidote is removed, you should be able to cultivate Xuan Energy. "
Lu Li suddenly understood after Lu Ling finished her explanation.
Previously, Lu Ling said that he could cultivate Xuan Energy immediately after he awakened his Bloodline. He had thought that Xuan Energy had something to do with the awakening of his Bloodline.
Only now did he understand that the reason why he could not cultivate Xuan Energy was because his sister used poison.
Not only did he not blame Lu Ling, but he also looked at her with heartache. He choked with sobs and said, "Sis, it has been hard on you all these years."
Lu Ling lost her parents at a young age. When she was four years old, she took care of Lu Li, who was still in swaddling clothes, and survived with difficulty.
What did four years old know?
What could she do?
Lu Ling also had to be on guard against the open and covert attacks from the tribe.
When she was 14 years old, she was almost raped. Her leg was broken and she crawled back from the wild.
When she came back, she had no one to seek justice. She had to bear all the pain and swallow all the grievances. She never told Lu Li and just licked her wounds in silence …
"Not at all!"
Lu Ling put on a gentle smile. She reached out her hand and gently touched Lu Li's face. She said in a gentle voice, "Lu Li, we are the children of the Lu Family. Lu Family members sweat and bleed, but they cannot shed tears.
Only the weak will shed tears and complain that the heavens are unfair to them. The strong will silently endure everything and rely on their own hands to overcome all tribulations. If a person wants to become strong, they must first have a strong heart. Do you understand? "
"Yes!"
Lu Li nodded. He grabbed Lu Ling's hands and solemnly said, "Sis, I will try my best to become a powerful warrior. I will never let you suffer any harm or grievance again.
I will find the best elixirs to cure your leg. I will let you live a good life. Trust me. "
"I trust you. My brother will become a powerful warrior that can look down upon all."
Lu Ling nodded. Then she handed over the tea and said, "If you want to become a powerful warrior, you must first detoxify and cultivate Xuan Energy.
Xuan Energy is the foundation of a warrior. Once you have cultivated Xuan Energy, it will be much easier for you to join the Liu Family. "
"Okay!"
Lu Li drank the tea in one gulp. When he finished, Lu Ling immediately said, "Sit on the ground with your legs crossed and get rid of all distracting thoughts. Calm down and sense the Xuan Qi in heaven and earth. Absorb it into your body and condense Xuan Energy."
Lu Li sat with his legs crossed and got rid of all distracting thoughts. He entered a state of emptiness and concentrated on sensing the miraculous Xuan Qi in heaven and earth.
The way to cultivate Xuan Energy was simple. It was common at the entire Northern Desert. Anyone with good aptitude could cultivate Xuan Energy.
Lu Li had known about this method for a long time. He had tried it many times over the years.
Somehow, he felt there were some miraculous stars in heaven and earth. He knew they were Xuan Qi. Immediately, he tried to draw them closer by meditating.
The human body was naturally attracted to Xuan Qi. Those invisible stars moved closer to Lu Li's body and got into his body.
Lu Li began to think of a way to keep the Xuan Qi and condense it into Xuan Energy. At first, it was the same as before. He could not condense it.
An hour later, a weak stream of Qi suddenly appeared in one of his major meridians. That stream of Qi slowly flowed through his meridians, making his entire body feel extremely comfortable. It was as if he had drunk the best wine in the world.
"Xuan Energy!"
Lu Li suddenly opened his eyes and said with surprise, "Sis, I have cultivated Xuan Energy."
"Ha, ha ~"
