Chapter 454: Give Me a Footbath
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
By the time Lu Li reached the exit, Ye Cha had been waiting for some time. Ye Cha saw that Lu Li's mind was weighed down but was relieved to see that Lu Li didn't look seedy.
Lu Li asked about the God of Meng and the Deserted World and learned everything was okay. Major races that had been relying on the Stellar Races were almost eliminated, and only some minor ones were left. For God of Meng, it would be utterly easy to unify the Deserted World.
Chee-ker was not the only one who went back, so did Meng Zhi. Ye Cha had told them to. After all, one more powerful warrior would mean the twins were safer.
Lu Li didn't ask more questions. He went out of the small world with Green Dwarfs and the area of demons with Ye Cha.
"Send a message to the Heaven Prison City and get more people here. If someone else gets in next time, you will have to answer to me."
Lu Li said coldly to a patriarch of the Bai Family staying here, and then asked Ye Cha to take him to the Heaven Prison City as fast as he could.
Bai Leng was waiting for them at the city. He was relieved to see Lu Li coming back in safety and explained, "Someone from the Pavilion of Delicacy is here. There is a Human Sovereign Realm warrior and a young lady. They asked for you. The young lady said that if she cannot meet you, she will tear down the Ling Empress City."
"Jiang Qiling?"
Lu Li was unhappy. Why didn't see come when Song Qi was here? Why didn't the Pavilion of Delicacy send a Human Sovereign Realm warrior over that time? Now everything was settled and Jiang Qiling actually showed up with a Human Sovereign Realm warrior? She wanted to tear down his Ling Empress City?
Lu Li was already in a bad mood, and Jiang Qiling acting up made him even more furious. He said nothing and entered the Teleportation Formation with a soured face together with Bai Leng.
"Buzzing!"
The Teleportation Formation at the Ling Empress City glowed for an entire hour. After they appeared, a lady flew out from the imperial palace and shouted to Lu Li in joy, "Lu Li, you are here! If you delay any longer, the Ling Empress City will die in my hands."
Lu Li glanced at her coldly. Jiang Qiling really pushed Lu Li's button. He snorted angrily and said, "Lady Jiang, wow. It's fine you assume great airs in the Pavilion of Delicacy and now you are doing this at the Northern Desert?"
Jiang Qiling's smile faded. She was angry after seeing Lu Li's indifferent face. His scornful look and his cruel words made it worse.
She almost killed herself for Lu Li, and she had a mental meltdown. Finally, she put herself together when she learned Lu Li was alive, and she hurried her way over. Now she was met with such cold shoulders?
She didn't have a good temper. She flipped out and said with her eyes reddened because of her tears, "Lu Li, what are you shouting at? I have traveled so far to see you. How can you treat me like this? Who do you think you are?"
"Nobody!"
Lu Li threw a cold glance at Jiang Qiling and headed towards the imperial palace directly. He turned back upon entering the imperial palace, squinted at her, and said, "The Northern Desert is too shabby to entertain such an important person as you. Please go back, Lady Jiang."
"Punk, how dare you?"
An old man walked out from a chamber in the Imperial Palace and he enveloped Lu Li with his powerful qi and energy. Looking at Lu Li indifferently, Jiang Yi said, "How dare you talk to Lady Jiang like this? I will slap you to death, believe me, and I will destroy your small city."
"Ha, ha, ha!"
Lu Li laughed. He stared back at Jiang Yi and said, "You old bastard. Don't think too highly of yourself. You are only a patriarch of the Pavilion of Delicacy. Not even Jiang Wuwo dares to kill me. Go ahead and try."
"Go to hell—"
Jiang Yi was enraged. He waved his hand, and a black-colored hand shape formed in the air. He slapped at Lu Li. At the same time, he activated his Force Field and contained everyone in the imperial palace.
"Stop it!"
Jiang Qiling shouted and glared at Jiang Yi. The later pouted and the giant hand in the sky collapsed. Both Ye Cha and Lu Li felt they had a trip to the hell.
However, Lu Li didn't show any changes in his expressions. He said coldly again, "See them out!"
"You…"
Jiang Qiling was about to burst into tears. She glared at Lu Li and the latter also glared at her. They were like two fighting lions, gazing at each other and neither would admit defeat…
After the time for more than 10 breaths, Jiang Qiling shed tears. She softened. Looking at Lu Li, she begged, "Lu Li, how can you be so cruel? Are you mad at me because I didn't help you? I couldn't…Jiang Wuwo, that bastard, knocked me out and then fed me something that kept me asleep. I woke up after 10 days. By that time, I thought you had died. I only learned that you are still alive today and I came over immediately. How can you treat me like this? You are a bastard as well…"
Lu Li melted at her tears and admitted defeat. He knew that he had wronged her.
He could not keep a straight face. A girl like Jiang Qiling was willing to give in today. He touched his nose in embarrassment and said, "Lady Qi, something has happened, and I am in a bad mood. I am sorry for... just now. Please forgive me."
"Hmm!"
Jiang Qiling felt even sadder. She humphed and turned around, tears still shedding from her eyes.
Lu Li shook his head and said, "I told you that I am in a bad mood. Lady, if you want to go in, just get down here. There are so many people looking at you crying. Don't you feel embarrassed?"
"You punk. I'll beat you to death!"
Jiang Qiling flew down in anger and embarrassment and punched his chest. Lu Li didn't dodge. He looked at Jiang Qiling quietly. She used 70% of her strength, but her fist landed on his chest softly. It didn't look like beating but flirting.
"Such a romantic scene!
Madam Yan saw this from the distance. On second thoughts, she came to understand things. There were few noble men in the world, and those that were both noble and outstanding were few and far between. Such an excellent man would be rare and be courted by many ladies…
Lu Li was in no mood to fool around with Jiang Qiling. He took her hands and walked to the hall. She was blushing and wanted to break free, but in the end, followed him in.
Jiang Yi looked at them with a calm face. He was a great warrior working for Jiang Wuwo so he knew what Jiang Wuwo felt about the two. But what could Jiang Yi say now or do? Not even Jiang Wuwo could control her when she went mad, so how could Jiang Yi afford to offend her?
At the hall, Lu Li took the center seat, showing no intention to ask Jiang Yi to take a seat. Madam Yan invited Jiang Yi to a side chamber to stay away, so Lu Li and Jiang Qiling could have some alone time.
Taking a sip of tea, Lu Li looked at Jiang Qiling and said, "Qiling, do you know the Immortal's Perish? Do you know a cure?"
Jiang Qiling was angry. How could Lu Li not comfort her before moving on to another subject?
At once, her temper acted up. She smiled, though, and said, "Immortal's Perish? I know. One of the most dangerous poisons of the Central Plains. As for a cure… I have it but I don't want to tell you unless you give me a footbath."
