Sunlight Emperor was not enraged because the Wu Family Patriarch did not report this to Sunlight Emperor.
The Wu Family Patriarch, on the other hand, was enraged. More than half of the powerful warriors of the Wu Family activated the space portals and teleported to the Blazing Island.
The Lightning Tribulation lasted for only two hours. When it was over, Lu Li used his skill to fly across the void. Under the watch of some scouts, he flew to the north.
As a matter of fact, Lu Li knew about the scouts. But he did not kill them because he did not want others to know that he had flown away.
He kept flying to the north. Every time, he would stop for a while so that people nearby could see him.
After flying through the void five times, he entered a city, put on a disguise, and teleported away. After teleporting dozens of times, he quietly left the city. After putting on a disguise, he flew through the void and left.
This time, he flew towards the south. That's right, he had turned back. After flying through the void three times, he found that there was no one nearby. He immediately disguised himself and entered the city, teleporting towards the Blazing Island.
The most dangerous place was the safest!
Lu Li knew that the Wu Family would be enraged after he killed so many warriors of the Wu Family.
Many powerful warriors would come after him. It was dangerous for him to fly across the void. Therefore, he flew to the north on purpose and then came back.
His Divine Body had just achieved initial success and it was not stable yet. He needed time to stabilize his realm. Undoubtedly, cultivating in the white flames was safe.
More importantly, his Divine Body had achieved initial success. His qi and energy seemed to have changed.
He felt he had a different body. He believed that even if there were Soul Chasers in the Silver Flames Sea, they would not be able to track him down.
The Blazing Island was full of flames which could isolate his qi and energy. So many people had died there. How could anyone go there?
In the area of white flames, only warriors of the Sixth Tribulation would be able to sense his presence.
Of course, hiding on Blazing Island also posed a certain level of danger. If a few Sixth Tribulation Experts from the Wu Clan came, he would have nowhere to escape to in Blazing Island.
Flying across the void was dangerous. After much consideration, Lu Li decided to stay on the Blazing Island for a while.
The first was to refine his body and the second was to stay out of the limelight.
Lu Li teleported along the way. After hundreds of teleportations, he hid in a small city.
He bribed a waiter to gather information from the outside world while he secluded himself in his room.
It was a mess out there. The Wu Family had mobilized over a million warriors to hunt him down. Five of the Sixth Tribulation warriors of the Wu Family were sent out, including the mad old man, to the north.
At the moment, the north was surrounded by dozens of interception nets. If Lu Li were to fly across the void to the north, he would be discovered immediately.
Lu Li stayed in the city for 10 days. The city was peaceful. There were scouts in the city but nobody had locked on to him. No powerful warriors came over either.
Lu Li set off secretly. He even faked his identity as a scout of a small family.
That scout was killed by him, and the identity token was taken by him. All the information matched.
Lu Li teleported all the way to the Blazing Island. It took him 10 days to teleport to a place nearby and sneak into the Blazing Island on his own.
There was not a single person near the Blazing Island. So many people had died here, and after such a fierce battle, who would stay here?
Making sure that nobody was around, Lu Li entered the Blazing Island and went directly to the white flame area.
His Divine Body had a small success and he had refined the Blessing Fruit. His resistance to fire had increased greatly. Although he was burned by the white flame, he could resist it easily.
Lu Li did not cultivate after he arrived. Instead, he asked Blood Fairy if she dared to come out.
If Blood Fairy could come out, she could set up some Divine Runes and Restrictions. That would be safer.
"I'm fine!"
Blood Fairy snuck out from Lu Li's body. As a soul, she was only afraid of soul attacks, not physical ones.
However, it did not dare to test Destructive Blaze. This white flame was still unable to harm it.
Lu Li did not expect that White Flame would not affect Blood Fairy. If he had known, he would have asked Blood Fairy to build some Teleportation Formations. Lu Li thought about it and asked Blood Fairy to build some one-way Teleportation Formations.
After all, he couldn't fly here. He could teleport as long as he left Blazing Island.
It was easy to build a one-way Teleportation Formation. It took Lu Li two days to finish.
Then, Lu Li built some Inhibition Formations on the periphery and asked Blood Fairy to build some formations of illusion, confusion, and destruction. He had set up all the Divine Runes he could. He did not expect the Teleportation Formations to be able to withstand the enemies' attacks. He just hoped that he could have a chance to escape.
While Blood Fairy was working, Lu Li refined his body in peace. He had achieved initial success in his Divine Body. Lu Li believed that in terms of defense, strength, and speed, he could compare with warriors of the fifth tribulation.
What surprised Lu Li was — his energy had changed. Previously, when others looked at him, he was at the peak of the second tribulation. Now, when someone checked, Lu Li was at the peak of the third tribulation.
"Does one Lightning Test mean I have passed the Heaven's Test?"
Lu Li could not figure it out. In any case, it was a good thing that he could reach the peak of the third tribulation. Lu Li relied on his physical strength and he no longer valued his realm.
That being said, the energy at the peak of the second tribulation was easily underestimated. On the other hand, the energy at the peak of the third tribulation would not be so obvious.
While cultivating divine energy, Lu Li relied on the flames to refine his body. Every now and then, he would go out and consume dozens of herbs. Then, he would come back in and consume the energy.
He planned to consume all of that stump. He even dug out the roots. Almost all the Fire Ants were consumed by him.
As long as nobody came to disturb him, he planned to cultivate here for a few years. For one thing, he could stabilize his Divine Body and for another, he could lie low.
Also, he had a vague feeling that his second-rate divine body was different from before. Perhaps there would be some special divine abilities, but he needed time to explore them.
Soon, half a year had passed.
The Blazing Island had been quiet. Nobody came. Though many people were still discussing, nobody came. Everyone had gathered at the north. Their attention was on the north.
Because!
Something interesting happened at the north. Warriors and powerful warriors of the Wu Family were ambushed. It was not just one or two. Many were killed.
Many mysterious people showed up. They were running around and killing people. The situation was a mess.
The Wu Family had been tracking Lu Li. Now that Lu Li was missing, why were there so many mysterious people?
Someone wondered …
Those mysterious people were in cahoots with the ones that attacked the battleships of the Blazing Island. Since they were dressed alike and their backgrounds were mysterious, no one could find out who they were after they were killed.
Some even suspected that Lu Li was with those people. Those people were the surviving forces of Emperor Zi. They had come to the Silver Flames Sea to seek revenge.
No matter what, the waters had been muddied. The Wu Family had mobilized a million people, but over a hundred thousand of them had been killed in half a year. More than ten elders of the Wu Family had died as well. The Wu Family Patriarch had personally gone to the north to oversee things.
Eventually, Sunlight Emperor learned of this. It was impossible to keep such a serious matter from him.
However, Sunlight Emperor was not angry when he was informed. He only told the Wu Family Patriarch to deal with it and not to disturb him unless it was a matter of life and death.
