Lu Tianhe and the others had been sleeping for more than 16 hours. Great Patriarch was at the Earth Immortal Realm and he had knocked them out with soul skills.
Great Patriarch had been merciful or else they wouldn't have woken up for days and nights.
Patriarch Feng was the first to wake up. His eyes flickered but he didn't sound the alarm right away. Instead, he woke up the others.
"What is going on?
Where is he? "
After Lu Tianhe woke up, his expression changed drastically. He exchanged glances with Elder Feng and obtained some information from Elder Feng.
"Step back for three miles."
Lu Tianhe didn't take any rash actions. He asked the 10 Noble Lord Realm warriors to step back, "Is it Great Uncle Five?"
Patriarch Feng didn't answer directly. He said, "I can't think of anyone else."
"It is him …"
Lu Tianhe sighed slightly, "Only martial artists at the Earth Celestial Stage can knock us out in an instant. There are only four martial artists at the Earth Celestial Stage who cultivate their souls in the entire Central Prefecture. Two of them are far away in the south, and the last one is from the Pavilion of Delicacy.
The Pavilion of Delicacy has always been on good terms with us. They will not offend us for Lu Li. Great Uncle Five is the only one.
Also … if it weren't for Great Uncle Five, we would all be dead now. "
Another Human Sovereign Realm warrior nodded and said, "Tianhe, what do you think we should do now?"
Lu Tianhe thought for a while and took out a golden token. Xuan Energy glowed and words appeared on it.
This was a special kind of token. Each one was worth billions of Xuan Crystals. This was the only token that could send messages over a long distance.
After he sent the message, he waited quietly. After the time it took for two incense sticks to burn, the golden token lit up. Lu Tianhe glanced at it and said, "Let's go back. Father has heard about what happened here. He has already returned to the Mystic Armor Mountain.
As long as Great Patriarch is not here, then it must be him. "
"Okay!"
It would be pointless to go after such a powerful warrior. What could they do even if they could?
If the Earth Immortal Realm warrior was determined to save Lu Li, not even Lu Zhengtan could stop him.
Lu Tianhe took out an Iron-armored Ship and flew back to the Mystic Armor City. Along the way, Lu Tianhe told the 10 Noble Lord Realm warriors not to tell anyone about this or they would be killed.
After flying for half a day, the token in Lu Tianhe's hand lit up again. He glanced at it and sighed, "It's Fifth Great Uncle. Father has already met him.
At this moment, Fifth Granduncle was at Mount Wen Fo. Father said that he had a secret discussion with him and indicated that this matter was over.
But from today on … Lu Li and Lu Feixue will be erased from the family register. From now on, they are no longer disciples of the Lu Family. "
Elder Feng and the other elder nodded, not daring to say anything else.
After all, Lu Zhengtan and the Supreme Elder had already discussed this matter, so it was meaningless for them to say too much.
"Mount Enquire?"
Patriarch Feng had mixed feelings in his eyes. Mount Wen Mountain was a hundred miles to the west of the Mystic Armor City. Great Patriarch going to Mount Wen Mountain meant that he would no longer be involved in the internal affairs of the Lu Family.
However, he didn't go too far away. This meant that he would still lend a hand if the Lu Family was in trouble.
Lu Zhengtan asked Lu Tianhe and the others to wait outside for two or three days before returning to the Mystic Armor City.
By then, they could publicize that Lu Li and Lu Feixue had been sent to the Omen Island. Only in this way could the people and the army be reassured.
Otherwise, if Great Patriarch and the Family Master went against each other, the disciples at the bottom and middle levels of the Family would be disturbed.
Lu Zhengtan and Great Patriarch had reached an agreement that Lu Zhengtan would not send anyone to hunt down Lu Li and the others.
As for the information, it was Lu Li who delivered it to the Omen Island.
Many people in the Mystic Armor City sighed, feeling sorry for Lu Li. After all, he was Lu Zhengyang's grandson and he was talented.
He could kill Noble Lord Realm warriors when he was only at the Soul Pond Realm. He was as talented as Lu Renhuang.
Lu Renhuang never showed up. Lu Li and Lu Feixue were sent to the Omen Island. All the Lu Family disciples had accepted the fact — the Lu Family had changed dynasties and the era of Lu Zhengyang was over.
It had been 10 years!
It was not good news that a Family Patriarch had been missing for 10 years.
No matter how long he had been in closed-door cultivation, he would come out once or twice. Plus, the Lu Family had sealed off the city and there were all kinds of rumors. Many people had guessed that something had happened to Lu Zhengyang.
…
Lu Li and the others had traveled tens of millions of miles. Of course, it would take them some time to get out of the eastern Central Plains.
The Mystic Armor City was not far from the sea. It would take Noble Lord Realm warriors four to five days to get there. The Iron-armored Ship was specially made and its speed was twice that of a Noble Lord Realm warrior. They should be able to set sail in two days.
Along the way, Yu Huashen and Ming Yu activated the Inhibition Formation on the Iron-armored Ship so that the outside world could not see them. At the same time, they avoided cities of different sizes and chose to fly in the wild.
Lu Li was not worried at all. Since Great Patriarch had taken action, he would not end up like this.
He had said that he would clear the way so they should be able to set sail.
Of course, they might not be safe after they set sail. It was not surprising that Lu Zhengtan might send someone to hunt them down.
Lu Li didn't worry about what would happen after they set sail. He had been thinking about a question.
Where were they going?
He could not rely on the Lu Family. He had to rely on himself, on his cultivation, on his parents and on his own to find Lu Ling!
Cultivation required resources. Without enough power, he could not save his parents. Without enough power, he could not find Lu Ling.
Even if he did find her, how could he save her from that mysterious powerful warrior?
Ghost Snake Granny was at the Noble Lord Realm and she was powerful. Someone who could take Lu Ling away from her and learn a seventh-rank Holy Light Profound Meaning must be at least at the Human Sovereign Realm.
The first thing that came to Lu Li's mind was to rely on a force and become a member of the External Clan so that he could cultivate with the help of resources.
What was a force?
Sixth-rank forces were nothing to Lu Li and he didn't know anything about seventh-rank forces. Lu Li turned his attention to the 12 Royal Families.
An enchanting girl came to his mind, Jiang Qiling!
He was indebted to Jiang Qiling. If he went to the Pavilion of Delicacy, Jiang Qiling would help him.
But if the Pavilion of Delicacy knew who he was, would they take him in?
The Lu Family and the Jiang Family were both Royal Families. Would the Lu Family dare to take a disciple of the Jiang Family as a disciple of the External Clan?
That would be a provocation to the Jiang Family.
"Never mind!"
After much consideration, Lu Li gave up on the idea of going to the Pavilion of Delicacy.
He didn't want to live under someone else's roof. He was wild in character and there were many rules in a big family. He might make trouble.
If he couldn't rely on a big family, he would have to fight for territory by himself.
Without territory, there would be no resources. How could he cultivate without resources?
How could he gather powerful warriors?
How could he get information about Lu Ling without powerful warriors working for him?
"To the Northern Desert!"
Lu Li soon made up his mind. The Northern Desert was his territory. The Cyan Phoenix Race and the Mammoth Race were his loyal subordinates.
As long as he could go back to the Northern Desert, he could unify the Northern Desert and build a new empire!
The resources at the Northern Desert couldn't compare with those at the Central Plains. But as long as he could unify the Northern Desert, he could get many resources.
He could sell those resources at the Central Plains and get many Xuan Crystals. Later on, he could use the Xuan Crystals to buy rare Mystical Materials.
That being said …
There was a problem with going back to the Northern Desert!
The Lu Family already knew that he came from the Northern Desert. Would they send someone to the Northern Desert to kill him?
Nobody could stop the Lu Family from sending a Human Sovereign Realm warrior secretly.
Lu Li was in deep thoughts. He spent an entire day on the Iron-armored Ship. Finally, he decided to take a gamble.
He gambled that Great Patriarch would protect him. Great Patriarch told him that if he made any achievements in the future, he must not kill disciples of the Lu Family.
Since Great Patriarch was so protective of disciples of the Lu Family, as the grandson of Lu Zhengyang, Great Patriarch would protect him as well. Otherwise, Great Patriarch wouldn't have come to save him.
Maybe Great Patriarch would come to an agreement with Lu Zhengtan so that Lu Zhengtan wouldn't go after him.
They had been flying for more than a day without a single pursuer. Great Patriarch had played a part in this.
"Forget it. Let's go back to the Northern Desert!"
