"Sister?"
Lu Li didn't get excited when he heard the name. Instead, he felt a sense of danger. He even had the urge to take Ji Mengtian down right now.
Of course, it was just a fleeting thought. Taking Ji Mengtian down was pointless.
He had such a thought because he sensed danger.
Ji Mengtian knew about his sister?
So, Ji Mengtian had investigated him?
Or did the Samsara Palace do?
There were too many secrets at the Northern Desert. Once they were discovered by the Central Plains, many people at the Northern Desert would die.
That was why Lu Li was so nervous and even wanted to kill Ji Mengtian.
He was nervous but he didn't show it. In the time for a few breaths, he calmed down. He squinted, looked at Ji Mengtian and asked, "Lady Ji, do you know me well?
You know about my sister? "
The smile on Ji Mengtian's face never faded. Her beauty was dazzling. Her voice was pleasant, like that of an oriole, "The Sanctuary belongs to the Samsara Palace. You sent someone to the Sanctuary to issue a mission. Of course, we know about it."
Ji Mengtian added after a pause, "As a matter of fact, many families are paying attention to you.
You must have some idea why. You are the son of Lu Renhuang and your Great Patriarch offended Lu Zhengtan for you. It is normal that people are paying attention to you. "
Lu Li thought to himself. Ji Mengtian was right. His identity was extraordinary and there were scouts from other families in the Mystic Armor City. What he did at the Mystic Armor City could not be hidden from the big families.
Lu Li nodded and asked, "What else do you know, Lady Ji?"
"I know that you killed Song Qi!"
A glint of curiosity rose in Ji Mengtian's eyes, "It is because of Song Qi that the big families are paying attention to you.
Even though the big families don't know how you killed Song Qi, there is no doubt that Song Qi died in the Northern Desert. "
Lu Li was relieved. The Cyan Phoenix Race, the Mammoth Race and the Titan Race were not exposed yet. Otherwise, powerful warriors of the big families would have gone to the Northern Desert.
He didn't want to go on with Ji Mengtian's story. He asked, "You said you know where my sister is. Is it true?
We have issued a mission but nobody has taken it. "
"Ha, ha!"
Ji Mengtian smiled gently. She was graceful and elegant. She shook her head and said, "I am just saying that you want to know where your sister is.
That doesn't mean I know where your sister is right now.
But … it's too easy for us, the Samsara Palace, as the largest force in Zhongzhou State, to investigate a person. As long as Young Master Lu helps me do one thing, I'll immediately send people to help you find your sister when we return to Zhongzhou State.
If I can't find him, I will go to the Northern Desert and let Master Lu deal with me. "
Lu Li was in deep thoughts. Ji Mengtian's words were sincere. She had taken it too seriously.
If Ji Mengtian could not find Lu Ling, Lu Li could take over her body and become the son-in-law of the Samsara Palace.
If it was any other man, he would have agreed immediately, right?
Lu Li didn't say yes. Instead, he became more alarmed. To him, Ji Mengtian was no longer an enchanting beauty, but a viper. One wrong move and he would be devoured by her.
He pondered for a moment and asked, "Tell me what's the matter first."
Ji Mengtian's eyes were filled with approval. She said, "Help me kill someone!"
"Alone?"
Lu Li squinted. The "person" was clearly a human being. Needless to say, the person must be from the 12 Royal Families if Ji Mengtian wanted to kill him but couldn't.
Not many young masters of the 12 Royal Families came in. Yang Xuan from the Hades Society, Ye Luo from the Tumulus of Universe and Lu Suan and Lu Ni from the Lu Family.
Lu Li thought for a bit and had an answer. He asked softly, "Is it Yang Xuan or Lu Ni?"
"Impressive!"
Ji Mengtian gave him a thumbs up and exclaimed, "Lu Li, you really are a genius to rise up in just a few years, to be valued by Jiang Qiling and to be regarded as a lifelong enemy by Lu Suan!
But I cannot tell you who it is.
I will only tell you if you agree to make a deal with me and swear a Heaven Reverse blood oath.
Don't worry. I will swear with you as well. "
Lu Li smiled, shook his head and said, "Lady Mengtian, you think too highly of me. Disciples of the 12 Royal Families all have powerful Bloodlines and their realms are high.
They have powerful escorts with them. I am only at the Eternal Realm. I will be killed as soon as I get close to them, let alone assassinate them. "
Lu Li turned down Ji Mengtian, not because he didn't have the guts and confidence to kill Lu Suan or Yang Xuan, but because he didn't want to have too much to do with Ji Mengtian.
He felt this lady was too dangerous. Asking a tiger for its skin, he would be smashed to pieces in the end.
Ji Mengtian wasn't annoyed by Lu Li's tactful refusal. She smiled sweetly and said, "Young Master Lu, it's okay if you don't want to cooperate now. We have a long way to go.
If you change your mind, you can come to me at any time. I will welcome you with open arms. "
With that said, Ji Mengtian put on a bright smile. Her eyes were sparkling. She was seductive like a cat in heat.
She walked away with the snake. After more than a dozen steps, she turned back and smiled. She was so charming.
"Siren, siren!"
Lu Li exclaimed to himself. This lady was poisonous but she could make people want to be close to her even if they were poisoned to death.
She was a femme fatale that could make kings give up their country and send many men to hell without hesitation.
"Who is Ji Mengtian trying to kill?
Lu Suan?
Yang Xuan?
Ye Luo?
Or … Jiang Qiling? "
Many questions crossed Lu Li's mind. Also, why would Ji Mengtian want to make a deal with him so suddenly?
Was she so sure that he had the ability and the courage?
Wasn't she afraid that he would leak the information?
Lu Li went back to the campsite in silence after he couldn't figure it out.
Inside the camp, the Ji Family's people had already finished roasting meat, all sorts of spirit fruits, and fine wine. A group of people were happily eating.
Seeing Lu Li coming back, Jiang Qiling waved to him and said, "Lu Li, come here."
Lu Li had warned her many times to stay away from him when there were outsiders around. Even so, he couldn't help it now.
Lu Li sighed. After all, Ji Mengtian had seen through many things and Die Feiyu must have guessed something as well. He walked over openly and began to eat.
Ji Mengtian said nothing. She took small bites and sat quietly.
Even so, she was like a bright moon in the night sky, attracting the attention of many men. Even Jiang Hu and the others couldn't help but throw her a few glances.
With Ji Mengtian around, the other young ladies were overshadowed. Only Die Feiyu and Jiang Qiling could compete with Ji Mengtian.
Die Feiyu was lively and adorable. Jiang Qiling was graceful and graceful. She was not pretentious at all.
Lu Li was dazzled by the three beauties sitting together. He had to lower his head and eat in silence. He didn't look at them.
"Whoosh ~"
Before Lu Li finished his meal, a man flew over from the distance. It was a warrior of the Ji Family.
That warrior knelt in front of Ji Mengtian and reported, "Young Lady, 43 Feather Race warriors are coming from the north, 30 miles away!"
Jiang Qiling put down the fruit in her hand, nervous. Ji Mengtian waved her hand and said with a smile, "Just dozens of Feather Race warriors.
Lure them over and we will kill them. "
Die Feiyu didn't mind. She waved her hand and said, "Don't waste the rewards. Get ready for battle."
Jiang Qiling felt defeated by the indifference on the two young ladies' faces.
She realized that the two young ladies were not following them for protection, but to protect them …
