"Whoosh ~"
After Lu Li came out from the temple, Ji Mengtian flew down Mount Buddha with Ji Mengyao. They dashed into the Teleportation Formation and left the City of Buddha directly.
The Samsara Palace was scared!
Seeing that Lu Li was flying over, many people stared at his handsome face with mixed feelings.
After today, this young man would once again be famous across the Great Land.
This young man came from the small Northern Desert and yet he could create such a stir at the Central Plains where powerful warriors were everywhere. His rise was like a comet. People had to marvel at his abilities and means.
That being said …
The Grand Master of the Demon-slaying Hall only promised to protect him for 10 years. One and a half years had passed and Lu Li was still at the peak of the Eternal Realm.
When the 10 years were up, would Lu Li be able to stand against the joint efforts of the four forces?
Nobody could be optimistic!
Throughout history, there were many monstrous youths who rose like comets, but those who could ultimately stand at the top of the world were few and far between.
Too much might break!
This was not an empty statement. The Samsara Palace, Hades Society, Pavilion of Blossoms and the Lu Family could stand at the Central Plains for so many years.
How powerful were the foundations of these four forces?
Not even the other Royal Families, let alone Lu Li, could compete with them?
As for the fact that Lu Li was born in the Lu Family, many people ignored it.
Lu Zhengtan was in charge of the Lu Family and Lu Li had been exiled.
The conflict between Lu Li and Lu Suan, Lu Ni and Lu Zhengtan could not be resolved. Therefore, Lu Li could not have anything to do with the Lu Family anymore.
"I bid 2.1 billion!"
Lu Li ignored the looks. He walked back to the private room, looked at Evil Punisher and said, "Do you want to send someone to see if I have enough Xuan Crystals?"
Evil Punisher forced a smile. He glanced over and asked, "Is there anyone else?"
Silence reigned. The Bi Family Human Sovereign Realm warrior said no more. He was just a chess piece. Now that his master was scared, what else could he say?
After a while, Evil Punisher nodded and said, "Okay, no more bids. The Bodhi Fruit is yours, Almsgiver Lu."
As soon as Evil Punisher finished his words, the atmosphere was relaxed.
Nobody could guarantee that Lu Li wouldn't do something crazy if someone else made another bid. Today, it was over.
Lu Li put on a smile. Today, he had offended the Hades Society and the Samsara Palace, but he thought it was worth it.
These two forces were originally like fire and water, so what if their hatred deepened?
He returned to the private room with Hannya, Gu Min, and the others. They waited quietly for the last item to be sold and the auction to end.
After what Lu Li had done, the last item of the auction, the Dragon Spit Fruit, seemed a little tasteless.
The bidding wasn't intense at all. In fact, even after Evil Punisher started bidding, no one called out a bid.
Those from the Palace of Immortal's Inquiries, the Red Lunar and the Palace of Heaven's Roars all made their bids so that the Dragon Saliva Fruit wouldn't be sold at a low price.
The final transaction price was not high, only 1.6 billion, which was not even comparable to the price of the Bodhi Fruit.
The auction was over. Lu Li was about to trade his Xuan Crystals for the Bodhi Fruit.
Hannya suddenly pulled the corner of his clothes and said, "Brother Lu, my master said she wants to see you."
"Your master?"
Lu Li was surprised. He didn't know Prajna's identity at the Great Buddhist Temple yet.
Who was her master?
Why did she want to see him all of a sudden?
Seeing that Lu Li didn't move, Prajna smiled sweetly and said, "Brother Lu, my master doesn't meet outsiders easily.
None of the guests here today are qualified to see my master. "
Lu Li was moved. Ji Mengtian and the others were not qualified to see Prajna's master?
Was Prajna's master the Abbot of the Great Buddhist Temple?
The Family Patriarch of the Kong Family.
"Lead the way. I will go and see your master."
Lu Li was not afraid that the Great Zen Temple wouldn't give him the Bodhi Fruit now that he had won the bid. He followed Prajna to the huge temple.
Lu Li's departure caught many people's attention.
Lu Li walking to the main hall of the Great Buddhist Temple raised more suspicions.
There were two Noble Lord Realm monks guarding outside the main hall. They didn't stop Prajna and Lu Li. They didn't even say anything as if Lu Li and Prajna were invisible.
Inside the hall was a huge Buddha statue. The Buddha statue was made of a special material. It looked more like a statue of a person.
Prajna bowed to the Buddha statue and led Lu Li to a corridor on the side.
Lu Li didn't know how many halls they had passed. In the end, he walked out of the huge temple and arrived at a quiet valley.
The view of the valley was nice. There were no servants here. There was a bamboo forest in the distance. Behind the bamboo forest was a pond with a cabin in the corner.
Prajna skipped forward with Lu Li. Pointing to the cabin, she said, "Brother Lu, I live here usually. Apart from my master, I am the only one here."
Lu Li patted Prajna's shoulder lovingly. She was at the age where she liked to play. How could she live here with an old man all by herself?
She had no playmates. She had to be accompanied by lanterns and wooden fish every day. That was too cruel for a child.
Nobody was in the cabin. Lu Li didn't dare to use psychic power.
He glanced over and saw an old monk sitting by the pond behind the cabin with a fishing rod in his hand.
The old monk was old and his back was bent. His white eyebrows were so long that they reached his chin. His eyes were closed as if he didn't know that Lu Li and Prajna were here.
Lu Li tried to sense the realm of the old monk but he couldn't.
He was surprised. The monk was at least at the Earth Immortal Realm. He must be able to tell that he was at the Human Sovereign Realm.
"Master!"
Prajna hopped over. She bowed to the old monk with respect and said, "Brother Lu, you are here."
Lu Li walked over, cupped his fists, bowed and said, "Greetings, master."
The old monk opened his eyes. His eyes were cloudy. He turned to Lu Li, pointed to the flagstone and said, "Please sit down. Prajna, go and make some tea."
Prajna walked away with a smile. The old monk put down the fishing rod.
Lu Li didn't see any bait on the fishing rod. What kind of fish was the old monk fishing?
The old monk had many wrinkles on his face. He looked at Prajna in the distance and said, "Prajna is a good girl. I don't have much time left. I don't think I can take care of her anymore."
Lu Li looked at the old monk with a frown. What did he mean?
But Lu Li still bowed and said, "Master, you are powerful. You can live for another 1000 years."
"Ha, ha ~"
The old monk moved his lips and said with a smile, "I've lived for more than three thousand years. How can I not know the day of my death?
I am old … and I like to nag. Please don't laugh at me. "
The old monk twitched his long white eyebrows and continued, "Let's not talk about this. I am here to talk to you about something serious. It is about … the Cyan Phoenix Race and the Mammoth Race!"
"Eh?"
Lu Li's soul trembled. Years ago, the six forces besieged the Cyan Phoenix Race and the Mammoth Race.
Lu Li even promised that he would bring the two races back to the Central Plains and take back their ancestral lands.
Now, the old monk wanted to talk to him about the two races?
In other words — the old monk knew that the surviving forces of the two races had followed Lu Li. Otherwise, why would he talk to Lu Li so rashly?
Lu Li thought about it and went straight to the point, "Do the 12 Royal Families all know about the Cyan Phoenix Race and the Mammoth Race?"
