Chapter 420: Three Pieces of News

Bai Qiuxue and Bai Xiashuang left. Lu Li accidentally walked in on Bai Xiashuang peeing which shamed her. After Lu Li fled, she cried and flew towards the Heaven Prison City. Fearing that something might happen to her, Bai Qiuxue left with her as well.

Lu Li could not explain this well. He shouldn't have entered a girl's bedroom. But he had thought that Bai Xiashuang had fallen asleep because of the drinking and wanted some intimate time with Bai Qiuxue, which was not wrong…

He couldn't even find a proper way to apologize, nor could he face the twins right now. He had to put it aside for now. Time would cure everything. Maybe he could share more interests with the Bai Family as compensation to Bai Xiashuang.

Scratching the surface of a Profound Meaning didn't mean that Lu Li could relax. He needed to make further progress. There were many things he didn't understand about this Profound Meaning, and more importantly—he didn't know how to use this Profound Meaning to make him more capable.

He made up his mind on staying here and cultivating. Ming Yu could come and visit here every now and then, telling him the situation of the Northern Desert. Staying here made not much of a difference than living at the Ling Empress City.

Seeing that the tornado made no signs of showing up after Lu Li rested a day, he went to closed-door cultivation on his Xuan Energy and Soul Pond. He couldn't rush the progress of the Profound Meaning. He should improve his realm now. It had been more than half a year since he had cast his first Fate Wheel, and his realm was stable so he should make the second Fate Wheel now to reach the middle stage.

After half a month, a tornado showed up. Ye Cha woke Lu Li up and the later went into the tornado. He tried to practice the use of this Speed Profound Meaning for a day but he collapsed the tornado again, unintentionally…

Lu Li had to go back to cultivate his Xuan Energy and Soul Pond since with no tornado, he could not continue on Profound Meaning. He had decided to try to reach the middle stage of the Fate Wheel Realm anyways, which demanded better Xuan Energy and Soul Pond.

Lu Li could cultivate very quickly now, hundreds of times than before. He had purchased a batch of pellets called the Pellet of Delicacy, which was refined by the Pavilion of Delicacy.

The pellet was top level. If it were not for the fact that Lu Li knew Jiang Qiling, he couldn't buy them even if he had enough Xuan Crystals. Jiang Qiling offered him a discount, only 10,000 Xuan Crystals for one pellet. On the markets, it would be at least three times this price.

Lu Li needed to consume 10 Pellets of Delicacy. In other words, he would use 100,000 Xuan Crystals a day and that would be three million a month.

How much was that!

Three million could buy several Xuan Artifacts of the Holy Grade. If Lu Li had to buy those pellets at the market value, he would probably spend about 10 million Xuan Crystals a month.

Lu Li was at the Fate Wheel Realm. The further he progressed, the more pellets he would need. By that time, he would spend Xuan Crystals as if they were worthless. Without enough support, Lu Li couldn't even imagine how many years he would take to reach the middle stage of the Fate Wheel Realm…

Why could Jiang Qiling cultivate so quickly? How come Lu Renhuang became the most talented person of the Central Plains in more than 100,000 years? Because they had two forces behind them that provided them with endless resources.

Lu Li had come to the Northern Desert to gain resources. If he were not the emperor, how could he afford the Pellets of Delicacy? He also spent away many Soul Crystals to cultivate his Soul Pond…

A talent could rise on the basis of many Mystical Materials. Without Mystical Materials, no matter how talented one was, the warrior would only be reduced to a good-for-nothing. If Lu Li had to get his Mystical Materials on his own, instead of getting those from Jiang Qiling, he could get himself killed sooner or later, given how bad his temper was.

Lu Li didn't have much of a concept of Xuan Crystals. He only wanted the best in his cultivation. As far as he could see, abilities were the ultimate power. When he had enough power, he could get all the Xuan Crystals he wanted. Worst come to worst, he could go to loot a big family.

The Northern Desert was peaceful. Life was comfortable. Lu Li would go to deliberate about the Profound Meaning if the tornado came or cultivate when there was no tornado.

Sometimes, he would sit on the deck, feeling the gentle breeze on the lake, thinking about Lu Ling, Lu Renhuang and his mother, or Bai Qiuxue. But he could not work up the courage to see Bai Qiuxue now. What if Bai Xiashuang was still angry?

Two months passed.

Ming Yu came again and brought three pieces of news—bad news in fact!

Many people were sent down into the Ice Abyss but none of them came back up. All of them had a jade talisman of life. Every one of the jade talismans were broken… every one…every one died.

"All of them? You sent more than 100 people down there?"

Lu Li looked gloomy. Lu Ling suspected that Lu Renhuang was alive and was still in the Ice Abyss.

But everyone sent down there was dead? Then there could only be two explanations. Either they were all killed before they could even reach the bottom, or they were murdered at the bottom but they didn't find Lu Renhuang.

If they had found Lu Renhuang, he would try to protect them and he would ask for some information to know that Lu Li had become the emperor of the Northern Desert. Maybe Lu Renhuang would notify Lu Li in some way and figure out a way to get out together.

Lu Li did not know what to do now that everyone sent down was dead. He was not so impulsive as to send Ming Yu or himself down there…

"Then the second piece of news?"

Lu Li sighed. He had to wait till he conquered the Deserted World and then send the Human Sovereign Realm warriors from the Deserted World to the Ice Abyss.

Ming Yu answered bitterly, "I got some news from the Pavilion of Delicacy. They have gone through the information of all the powerful warriors they know and only found three that understand the Holy Light Profound Meaning. One of them died five years ago, another one is a goddess in the Palace of Immortals Inquiries, and there is one of the arhats of the Great Buddhist Temple. But the arhat has been in meditation for 100 years without leaving. The goddess is dying of old age and she hasn't left the Palace of Immortals Inquiries for 50 years. The Pavilion of Delicacy sent someone over to check. Lady Ling is in neither of those places."

A glint of coldness flashed through in Lu Li's eyes. He said coldly, "Are you sure? Is it possible that the Palace of Immortals Inquiries and the Great Buddhist Temple are lying? Are there any more powerful warriors who understand the Holy Light that have not been found yet?"

Ming Yu shook his head and said, "No. Jiang Hong told me in person. He said that Lady Jiang have given orders herself and their intelligence department have double checked. They questioned the Palace of Immortals Inquiries and the Great Buddhist Temple and found other ways to verify their stories. The goddess and the arhat never left. As for whether there are other powerful warriors that learned Holy Light, I don't know…"

Lu Li smashed a table and yelled angrily, "Go on, find a way and continue. We will do it ourselves. I don't care how much we need to spend but we need an answer."

Lu Ling was more important than his own life.

The only clue he had was a powerful warrior that understood Holy Light. The result in front of Lu Li was unacceptable to him. He wanted to rely on himself and not the Pavilion of Delicacy to find Lu Ling. He didn't feel quite comfortable owing Jiang Qiling so much, either.

Ming Yu thought about it and said, "There is a way. We can go to the Sanctuary and post a bounty mission. Maybe we will get something soon."

"The Sanctuary?"

Lu Li was surprised. He had heard of temples but not the sanctuary. Was this sanctuary better than the Pavilion of Delicacy when the latter couldn't even get Lu Li what he hoped for?
