The cultivation of food for the Dragon Demon went well. There were many Feiyi Beasts in the swamp, thousands of them.
The Lu Family sent out several Earth Immortal Realm warriors to capture many Feiyi Beasts and send them to selected swamps.
Many low-level Xuan Beasts were sent to the swamps. The Feiyi Beasts did not show any signs of discomfort. Soon, the Feiyi Beasts settled down.
A high wall was built outside the swamp. Usually, warriors were stationed there and nobody was allowed to get close.
Many forces were suspicious, thinking that the Lu Family was up to some secret plan …
The Feiyi Beasts were in a new place. As long as they could adapt to the new environment, they would have no natural enemies and they would have enough food, the Feiyi Beasts would breed quickly.
After all, they would eat and sleep every day. Naturally, they would grow fast.
The Feiyi Beasts were not of a high rank, so they could breed fast. The higher the rank of the Xuan Beasts, the harder it would be to breed. Patriarch Eight was not worried about this. In a few months, there would be a large number of eggs.
Patriarch Eight thought about it and decided to build some Spirit Gathering Formations in the swamp. In this way, the Feiyi Beasts could grow faster.
Lu Li did not care about what was going on. He cultivated in the Inferno by himself.
He did not want to cultivate. He just did not want others to see him in such a sad state. He wanted to use cultivation to forget his sorrow.
Lu Li, who was immersed in his sorrow, was cultivating at a fast pace. He could learn one small diagram every 10 days.
He did not engrave them into his Bead of Life. Instead, he studied them one by one. When all the diagrams were finished, he would engrave them into his Bead of Life.
Last time, Lu Li was at a disadvantage when he studied the big diagram of the Feather Wind castle. He engraved one small diagram after another. As a result, he could not integrate the last one.
Now, he planned to study a big diagram and then engrave them into his Bead of Life at the same time. In this way, he would not be able to integrate the last one.
Time flew by in cultivation. Soon, two months passed. In two and a half months, Lu Li had learned seven small diagrams. Even he was shocked by his speed.
During this time, Ye Cha had been searching for Lu Ling but to no avail.
But one thing was for sure. Lu Ling was not taken away by warriors of the nine universes. Otherwise, she would have come out to threaten Lu Li.
The cultivation of the Feiyi Beasts had been going well. At present, the number of Feiyi Beasts had multiplied a lot. In addition to the Feiyi Beasts found in the Qing Province of the Hai Continent, the number of Feiyi Beasts raised by the Eighth Patriarch had reached thirty to forty thousand.
In a few months' time, the number of Feiyi Beasts would double. By then, the Dragon Demon would be able to collect more eggs.
The Illusory Formation on the Sky-reaching Mountain of the Inferno Prison was triggered. The elders of the Heavenly Illusion Tribe who were guarding here were startled immediately. After scanning with their divine thoughts, they all knelt down on one knee and opened the Illusory Formation.
Finally, Lu Renhuang was back!
He went to ask the patriarch of the Shadowland Race at once. When he learned that Lu Ling had been taken away, he pulled a long face.
He didn't say anything and quickly flew toward the base camp.
Lu Renhuang had not reached the Semi-God Realm yet, but he was powerful.
Based on the judgment of the patriarch of the Shadowland Race, Lu Renhuang should be at the peak of the Earth Immortal Realm, one step away from the Semi-God Realm. The Prison of Ice was indeed a holy land for Lu Renhuang to cultivate.
Several days later, Lu Renhuang arrived at the base camp. Jiang Qiling, Ming Yu and the others went to greet him. Lu Feixue was in tears.
Jiang Qiling woke Lu Li up. He welcomed Lu Renhuang into the inner hall and then asked everyone to leave. Lu Li didn't want anyone to know what was going to happen next.
When Lu Li opened the Inhibition Formation, Lu Renhuang looked at Lu Li with a bitter smile and said, "You have guessed something?"
"Of course …"
Lu Li pulled a long face at once. He looked up at Lu Renhuang and said, "I have guessed it but I still find it hard to believe.
My sister and I look alike. Also … if she is not my sister, why didn't anyone at the Di Long Tribe say anything about it? "
If Jiang Qiling and the others could hear their conversation, they would be shocked.
Lu Li said that Lu Ling was not his sister?
In other words, Lu Ling was not his biological daughter. She was adopted.
Lu Li asked Lu Renhuang to come back just to verify this point!
Lu Li had this speculation because of what the young warrior who took Lu Ling said — I have found you after 20 years!
More than 20 years ago, Lu Ling was just born. Who would look for her for more than 20 years?
The only explanation was that it was Lu Ling's family or people!
The powerful warrior who took Lu Ling away looked young. But the Slayer looked young as well.
If a warrior could reach a high realm and have a long life when he was young, then his looks wouldn't change even after he was more than 100 years old.
Take Lu Li as an example. His looks wouldn't change much even after he was 100 years old. He could live for thousands of years now. Compared to thousands of years, 100 years was too short.
In other words …
The young man who took Lu Ling away might be Lu Ling's family or even … a senior!
Otherwise, he wouldn't have searched for Lu Ling for more than 20 years.
Therefore, Lu Li could infer that Lu Ling might not be Lu Li's sister. Therefore, he contacted Lu Renhuang at once to ask for confirmation.
But there was one thing that Lu Li couldn't figure out. If Lu Ling was not Lu Li's biological daughter, then why didn't anyone at the Di Long Tribe say anything?
Lu Renhuang explained, "When Ling-er was born, your mother and I were in the Ice Abyss. I had recovered a bit but I needed some elixirs.
Because I was afraid that the enemy would kill your mother, I took her to the periphery of the Ice Abyss. We spent more than a year there. After I had completely recovered from my injuries, I took your mother and your sister back to the Di Long Tribe, so no one in the tribe suspected … "
"No wonder!"
Lu Li understood. Then, he asked in confusion, "Could it be that my sister … was born at the periphery of the Ice Abyss?
Where is her mother?
Did you see her? "
"No!"
Lu Renhuang shook his head and said, "When we passed by, your sister was alone in the snow. She was naked. Clearly, she was just born but she didn't cry or make a fuss. She was very well-behaved."
"Just born?
And no clothes?
How is that possible? "
Lu Li was shocked. The Ice Abyss was covered in snow all year round. How come a newborn didn't freeze to death in such cold weather?
And she didn't cry or make a fuss?
"Nothing is impossible!"
Lu Renhuang sighed. He looked at Lu Li's neck out of instinct and said, "Didn't you ask me where I got that animal tooth pendant?"
"Animal tooth chain?"
Lu Li was taken aback. He asked with confusion, "Didn't you say that it is a treasure left by Emperor of Heaven Reverse?
Don't tell me … it's sister's? "
"That's right!"
Lu Renhuang nodded and said, "Actually, this animal tooth pendant belongs to your sister. She was naked and the only thing she was wearing was this animal tooth pendant.
Maybe it's because of the animal tooth pendant that she didn't freeze to death? "
"Oh …"
Lu Li trembled. He put on an unnatural expression and said, "Since it belongs to my sister, why did father give it to me?
You lied and said it was a treasure left by Emperor of Heaven Reverse? "
"I lied because I don't want your sister to be sad."
Lu Renhuang explained, "If your sister had not been taken away, I would have kept this a secret for the rest of my life.
After so many years, your sister's family never came looking for her. I thought they wouldn't come.
So, I want to keep this a secret. Otherwise, if your sister finds out, she will be very sad. After all, her parents abandoned her when she was young … "

PS: I strongly recommend the new book, "The Demon Slayer Contract", by Xiao Ran of the Vast Waves. This book is about a young exorcist, Tianming, who signed a contract with the underworld for money. He participated in the operation to capture and kill ghosts in the world of the living. From then on, he embarked on the path of a powerful man. Beautiful women would surround him and even immortals would bow to him.
PS2: It's a new month. Everyone has a guaranteed monthly vote. Now, it's double monthly votes. If you vote for one, you will get two. Please vote for Dragon Emperor of Eternal Destruction!!!
Don't worry about the missing chapters. I will make up for them after the Annual Assembly.
Lu Li cupped his fists and thanked.
