Chapter 387: Blazing Red Lips

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

"Young Master, do we need to go to the Du Family?"

While they were resting in a city, Yu Huashen posed the question. He explained, "If you want to unify the Northern Desert, you must destroy the three kingdoms. What if the Du Family of the Heaven Frigid Kingdom is related to the Du Family at the Central Plains?"

Lu Li and Ming Yu frowned. Du Zheng had denied the notion, but if the relationship existed, they could infuriate the Du Family by their actions without giving notice in advance.

However, the Du Family had thought that Lu Li was dead after he was forced in the Wicked Sorcery Mountain. How would the Du Family feel about Lu Li suddenly coming back alive? In the old days, the Du Family had buttered him up because he was a disciple of the Lu Family, but he was exiled now. How would the Du Family treat him if they learned the fact?

"No!"

Lu Li shook his head and said, "Let's go back to the Northern Desert. I will have a word with Du Zheng first."

"Okay!"

Yu Huashen nodded. They resumed teleportation after some rest. They had been laying low, and they had never visited a region city. They chose to teleport between Prefectural Cities and avoided the Qin Family's territory by taking some detours. It was more troublesome but safer.

Two more days later, they arrived at the Du Family territory. Another day towards the north would get them to the Cloud City from where they could teleport to the Northern Desert.

"Let's take a rest."

Lu Li was getting tired. He hadn't been able to sleep well for some time. Every time they took a rest, it was only several hours. He only had to be on the road for one more day, so he decided to have a good rest and then teleport back to the Northern Desert directly.

Yu Huashen found a tavern and booked an entire yard at the back so they could rest for the night. Lu Li fell asleep as soon as he went to his room. He wanted to sleep until the next day.

However, at midnight, somebody knocked on his door.

Lu Li sat up and opened his door in a daze. Soon, he became fully awake. Yu Huashen was there with a person, Patriarch Du Ran, cousin of Du Zheng.

Du Ran was the same as usual with white hair and eyebrows, but there was hidden bitterness in his expression. He cupped his fists, forced a smile and said, "Young Master Lu, you have made me miserable with your lies."

Since Du Ran was at his door, Lu Li could not refuse. Also, Du Ran was quite nice to him. Lu Li asked Du Ran in and had Yu Huashen serve tea. Then he asked, "Patriarch Du, how do you know we are here?"

"You are at the Du Family territory."

Du Ran answered, "No matter how you change your appearance, we can still recognize you. I am in charge of intelligence. I can easily deduce that it is you with the information I gathered."

After a pause, Du Ran asked with curiosity, "Young Master Lu, I heard from the guys from the Pavilion of Delicacy that you took their Iron-armored Ship and you entered the Gargoyle Mountain. Did you make it back to the Lu Family?"

Lu Li could tell that Du Ran had no idea of what happened at the Lu Family, which was understandable as the Lu Family was sealed off and the outside world was cut off from the information of the Lu Family.

Lu Li replied after some thoughts, "I didn't make it to the Lu Family because I heard the Lu Family is closed. Nobody is allowed in. I want to go back to the Northern Desert. I have… some stuff to deal with there."

"Northern Desert?"

Du Ran was curious. Lu Li was the son of Lu Renhuang and the grandson of Lu Zhengyang. What would he be doing back at the small Northern Desert instead of going back to the Lu Family?

Since Du Ran could tell that Lu Li was deliberately withholding some information from him, he didn't press on. He nodded and said, "Young Master Lu, you have proven to be a blessed man by being able to come out from the Wicked Sorcery Mountain. Lu Family will not be sealed off forever. You must be incredibly talented as you are able to reach the Fate Wheel Realm in such a short time. You will be at the center of the Lu Family when you go back with more power."

Lu Li snorted within but he didn't show it. He thought of something and asked, "Patriarch Du, I wonder if Du Heng, King of the Heaven Frigid Kingdom, is related to your family?"

"Du Heng?"

Du Ran frowned and asked back, "No, he is not our disciple. Why?"

"Oh, nothing!"

Lu Li was relieved. He replied with a grin, "I will be staying at the Northern Desert for some time and cultivate. I might have to trouble you again in the future."

"No problem."

Du Ran said with some guilt, "I am fully responsible for what happened last time. We are already grateful that you don't blame us."

The conversation that followed was boring. Lu Li and Du Ran engaged in mutual compliments. Du Ran wanted to dig something out, yet Lu Li was careful. Du Ran didn't get any useful information.

They chatted on for an hour. Du Ran asked Lu Li to pay a visit to the Dan City again to which Lu Li said no. Du Ran had to bid goodbye. Lu Li asked him to keep the secret. Du Ran knew very well the importance of this and he left after making a promise.

Lu Li dared not to stay long since the news of him being alive was out. He teleported away with others that night. By noon the next day, they reached the Cloud City.

"Young Master, do you need to take a break?"

Yu Huashen asked with concern after they arrived at the Cloud City. Lu Li seemed to be pale from the discomfort.

Lu Li shook his head. Cloud City was where they almost had great trouble. He wouldn't dare to stay here.

"Whoosh~"

Right at this time, a middle-aged warrior came over. Lu Li was surprised to see this man. He knew the warrior, Jiang Hong from the Jiang Family.

Jiang Hong clearly knew who Lu Li was despite his disguise and Jiang Hong must have come specifically for Lu Li. He walked over, cupped his fists and said, "Young Master, our lady asks you to pay a visit."

With that said, Jiang Hong pointed to a building. The window was opened, and an enchanting face was revealed. The lady had a goblet of wine in her hand.

Bloody Rose, Jiang Qiling!

Lu Li was vexed. It was one thing that Du Ran discovered the truth, but how come Jiang Qiling learned the news so quickly? Did Du Ran tell her?

The window was soon closed. Nothing unusual happened in the city. Lu Li gave it some thoughts and said, "Show me the way."

Jiang Hong brought them to a tavern. Lu Li thought about and said, "You go and have some rest. I will meet an old friend of mine."

Lu Feixue was curious but she didn't ask. Yu Huashen and Ming Yu knew who Lu Li was talking about. Jiang Hong led Lu Li to an elegant private room.

Pushing the door open, Lu Li smelled a familiar wine. That was one of the strongest liquor, Bloody Rose.

He saw a familiar pretty figure in the room. She was wearing a revealing red dress, highlighting her snow-white skin. She was still enticing with her blazing red lips and her enchanting eyes. She was holding a goblet of Bloody Rose, leaning against her bed while staring at him with a smile.

Jiang Hong left. Lu Li was afraid to go in as this was a guest room, not a drawing room.

"Lu Li, it's been a while. I didn't expect that you could reach the Fate Wheel Realm this quickly."

Jiang Qiling said with a gentle smile. Out of instinct, Lu Li sensed her qi and energy. He was surprised.

Jiang Qiling had reached the Eternal Realm and she seemed to be at the peak already!

He remembered very well that the last time he saw her, she was only at the later stage of the Fate Wheel Realm. It had not been long. It must be less than half a year since they parted... Just how horrible was her cultivating speed?

At the later stage of the Fate Wheel Realm, there were three Fate Wheels, but the peak of the Eternal Realm had nine. In other words—Jiang Qiling made six Fate Wheels in half a year!

Lu Li didn't know this before, but now that he had a Fate Wheel of his own, he clearly knew that the process of building Fate Wheels would be more and more difficult later on. Even with numerous materials, it was not easy to make breakthroughs at a fast speed.

"Ha, ha~"

Jiang Qiling took a sip of the Bloody Rose which seemed to add a blood color on her blazing red lips. She grinned and made fun of Lu Li, "What? Are you scared? My talent is rarely seen at the Jiang Family. As long as I focus on cultivation, I can reach the Earth Immortal Realm soon. Lu Li… prepare to wash my feet and kowtow to me."
