The Invincible Dragon Emperor - Page 704/790

Lu Li was not a crazy man, but he had developed a crazy plan at this moment!

He must join the Leng Family, or the venom would show effect and kill him. Now that Leng Wuxue had convinced that Lu Li was Blood Emperor’s apprentice, then it had become an established fact.

If so, why wouldn’t he go ahead with it? As the Blood Emperor’s apprentice, he must not be cowardly, or he could risk his entire endeavor by inviting doubts and suspicion.

Leng Wuxin had told Lu Li to join the External Clan of the Leng Family and to win over Leng Family’s trust in baby steps so that he could find a chance to get to Leng Wushang and kill him. She even said… she could afford to wait for decades!

But that was time Lu Li did not have. He had chosen an orthodox path. He made a crazy decision. He would go to the Leng Family openly and approach Leng Wushang in the same manner.

Therefore, he had acted in an imposing and arrogant way. His goal was to overwhelm Leng Wuxue, and make him a witness that Lu Li was the apprentice of the Blood Emperor.

Of course, Leng Wuxue did not know what was on Lu Li’s mind. Leng Wuxue felt both at a lost and furious.

He had reached some understanding from the words of Yin Qingsi and Lord Long that he could not mess up with Lu Li’s master. It was possible that Leng Tian’ao, Leng Wuxue’s father, could not beat Lu Li’s master, either. The only way he could best Lu Li was to gather the senior warriors of the Leng Family.

However, those senior warriors would not come out for trivial matters. If he alarmed them over his matter, his good days at the Leng Family would come to an end.

Leng Wuxue would feel less angry if Lu Li had been at the Human Sovereign Realm. It just so happened that Lu Li was merely at the Noble Lord Realm, and he was at the Eternal Realm not long ago. For Leng Wuxue, warriors of such realms were usually nothing but puny insects.  U.p..dated b.y Box novel. com

He was a young master of the Leng Family, a prince of the Leng Dynasty. If he were to break his own leg because some Noble Lord Realm warrior told him to, how could he be able to live on in the Central Imperial Universe?

That being said…

Lu Li had made it clear that he would make a scene at the Leng Family. Lu Li, a person that could not be tortured or killed, what could Leng Wuxue do with him?

Leng Wuxue hesitated for a moment. Then he snorted and said, “If you want to go to the Leng Family, then suit yourself. Leng Family has a history of over one million years in the Central Imperial Universe. We will not be frightened even if your master is there. Hmm. Let’s go!”

The others looked at each other in surprise after hearing Leng Wuxue’s words. How well-connected was Lu Li? How did he make Leng Wuxue, who had always been full of himself, acknowledge defeat? How did he drive the confidence out of Leng Wuxue’s words?

Leng Wuxue went off in a huff. His four servants left as well. From behind them came Lu Li’s chilly voice, “Leng Wuxue, tell your family that I will pay a visit soon. Prepare to have your legs broken by your father.”

Leng Wuxue left in big strides without any hesitation. To deal with this matter was not within his capability. He had to go back and ask for instructions, and the elders in the family would make a decision.

Lu Li felt he could breathe again after the group was gone. He bowed to Lord Long and said, “Could you please show me the way? I do need to go to the Central Imperial Universe.”

“Of course!”

This time, to Lu Li’s surprise, Lord Long’s attitude was much better. He showed Lu Li in. The cave was as large as it was deep. They finally reached a huge portal after walking for the time for half an incense stick to burn.

“You can go in now. Later, when you want to come back to the Prison of Gold, tell the guards on the other side that I have given my permission. My name is Wan Long.”

Lu Li hadn’t become used to Lord Long’s sudden change of attitude. He said nothing and walked over to the portal.

“Your master, I don’t think he is going to the Prison of Darkness. I think he is at the Prison of Soul.”

When Lu Li was about to step into the portal, Lord Long suddenly asked. Lu Li turned back. He thought about it and said, “I really don’t know. My master didn’t tell me.”

“Ha, ha!”

Stroking his beard, Lord Long smiled, “Your master has stepped into the Semi-God Realm 1000 years ago. If he can survive the Prison of Soul, he can then go and try out his chances at the Prison of Thunder and finish the final step.”

Lu Li seemed to be absorbed in his thoughts but didn’t give a response. The more he said, the more he could give away. He had decided to act with ignorance when it came to the Blood Emperor, which would add more enigma.

“Buzzing!”

Lu Li strode into the portal directly. Amidst a glare, he felt the world spinning fast around him. He found himself in a huge plaza after a long time, so long that he could no longer tell.

“So, this is the Central Imperial Universe?”

Lu Li squinted and gave a quick look at the environment. He was in a big city with people hurrying to and fro. The city didn’t seem to be different from the cities in the Central Plains.

From the map Leng Wuxin had given him, he knew this was the City of Chaos. Anyone that wanted to reach the Purgatory of Primordial Chaos must go from here.

“Xuan Qi here is so rich, times richer than in the Central Plains.”

Lu Li exclaimed. The larger the continent it was, the richer Xuan Qi in heaven and earth would be. For example, Xuan Qi in Clouds Plains and Serenity Plains were times richer compared to that at the Northern Desert but less so compared to the Central Plains.

Xuan Qi here was stronger than in the Central Plains. In other words—the Central Imperial Universe was a dozen times larger than the Heaven Reverse Universe. That was unexpected.

“Well~”

Lu Li came to terms with the fact after some thoughts. In the Central Imperial Universe, there were more powerful warriors than he could count. The number must be much larger than that of warriors in the Heaven Reverse Universe. If the Central Imperial Universe was only as large as the Deserted World, there couldn’t have been so many powerful warriors.

Mystical Materials mattered to the cultivation of powerful warriors. If the Central Imperial Universe was not large enough, it wouldn’t be able to keep up with the supply of Mystical Materials. In that case, there would be no powerful warriors.

In the Northern Desert, for instance, the land was small, and Xuan Qi in heaven and earth was thin. Naturally, there weren’t many Mystical Materials, which was the reason that few could become powerful warriors. When there were no Mystical Materials the Human Sovereign Realm required, how could warriors reach this realm?

Lu Li stepped out of the portal after a pause. The Human Sovereign Realm guards gave him several glances but didn’t question him.

Lu Li’s final destination was the capital of the Leng Dynasty, the City of Leng. That was where the Leng Family was!

Previously, Lu Li had been hurrying on the way since he was trying to reach the Leng Dynasty as soon as he could to protect himself from dying of the venom. At this moment, when he arrived at the Central Imperial Universe, he loosened up instead. He could make it in more than 10 days by teleporting, so there was no rush.

He looked around and saw a tavern next to the plaza. He strode over. He must gather some information. At the same time, he could use the chance to cultivate and stabilize his realm. The rest of the matter would be figured out sooner or later.

Leng Wuxin had thrown him an almost impossible mission. He felt he was dancing on a blade, and he could have his body smashed into pieces at any moment now.

He did not know what to do or what he would run into later on. He must take one step at a time. Hence, he must acquire information before he could develop a plan.

He went into the tavern and asked around. Purple Xuan Crystal was the currency here at the Central Imperial Universe as well. But prices were unreasonably high. One night’s rate was 500 Purple Xuan Crystals, i.e. five million Xuan Crystals.

Lu Li had enough Xuan Crystals with him. A waiter showed him to a luxury suite. Inside, Lu Li threw tens of thousands of Purple Xuan Crystals and asked the waiter, “Do you want them?”

The waiter was merely at the Eternal Realm. His eyes sparkled after seeing so many Purple Xuan Crystals. He became short of breath and trembled.

Lu Li smiled and said, “I need some information. You can get more Xuan Crystals if you tell me more. Understand?”

The waiter bowed unctuously and replied, “Young Master, ask away. I will say all I know and say it without any reservation. You can even ask how many birthmarks on my… wife’s body!”

Lu Li somehow relaxed. Looking at the fawning smile of the waiter and his funny yet vulgar words, his tensed nerves finally relaxed.

It seemed like the Central Imperial Universe was not much different from the Heaven Reverse Universe apart from the greater number of powerful warriors.

Previously, Lu Li had felt strange to the Central Imperial Universe. He was dreadful of this place. But now, he became less resistant and fearful.

For the first time, there was confidence in his heart. Maybe he could live on well in this unfamiliar Central Imperial Universe. Maybe he could rise up slowly and accomplish Leng Wuxin’s mission.

Maybe… he could survive and return to the Heaven Reverse Universe!
