Chapter 465: Like a Widow

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

The time for Lu Li and Jiang Qiling's appointment hadn't come yet.

Jiang Qiling said that in a year and a half the small Demon-slaying Grounds was going to be available. Hence, Lu Li had decided to set off a month earlier. He had just reached the Eternal Realm and didn't even have the time to study his psychic power or to stabilize his situation before he hurried his way to the Central Plains.

If he could not enter the battlefield this time, he will have to wait for another three years - a period of time he could not afford to lose.

Since Lu Li made his deal with Jiang Wuwo, Jiang Qiling had been in closed-door cultivation. She didn't come out even once during this time.

During his four visits to Jiang Yi, Lu Li had asked for Jiang Qiling and was informed that she was in closed-door cultivation. He had gone to her a month in advance in case she had forgotten about it. This way, he could have a window of time to react if it really happened.

Nothing about Lu Ling came in the year and five months. Tens of billions of Xuan Crystals were invested but hardly anyone claimed the task. Some did but the results were wrong…

Lu Li asked God of Meng to come out from the Deserted World secretly to try to rescue Lu Renhuang. But halfway into the abyss, God of Meng refused to go down—claiming that he felt fatal danger and he would definitely lose his life if he went further down. Lu Li could not force him so they gave up.

Out of the three urgent matters, two had no leads. Lu Li had to count on the Demon-slaying Hall. After all, Jiang Qiling said that as long as he had points, he could ask for anything. This was one of the reasons that he was so desperately eager to go into the small battlefield.

Lu Li teleported to the City of Delicacy and entered their chamber of commerce. He had stayed here several times during his past visits.

"Young Master Lu!"

The Chief Steward of the chamber of commerce received Lu Li in person and showed Lu Li to an elegant side chamber. Lu Li didn't have time for chitchat. He asked seriously, "Has Lady Qi come out from cultivation?"

The Chief Steward seemed to be a slick and capable middle-aged man and he appeared to be very kind and gentle. But his expression turned to be worse upon hearing the question. He replied apologetically, "Young Master Lu, I am an insignificant steward at the Pavilion of Delicacy. How can I know about Lady Qi? Don't ask me such a hard question."

"Then send a word to Jiang Qiling."

Lu Li understood that this man didn't have enough access. He must wait for Jiang Yi now. The Chief Steward found someone to invite Jiang Yi over promptly. Since Lu Li would ask for Jiang Yi every time he came, the Chief Steward didn't ask for more questions.

An hour later, Jiang Yi came but not with good mood, which was how he always looked like. Jiang Yi let the Chief Steward go before he asked, "You have more stuff?"

"No?"

Lu Li shook his head. He had some Mystical Materials left but he didn't want to sell them. The Mystical Materials he bought from the Pavilion of Delicacy were enough for him and others to cultivate for decades.

"Then what are you asking me here for if you don't want to do business?" Jiang Yi pulled his face. He turned back at once, waved his hand and said, "Hang out by yourself. I have other things to do."

"Da*n!"

Since he was referred to as an "old bastard" by Lu Li, Jiang Yi had been harboring some hatred. During Lu Li's past visits, they were only doing business. But this time Lu Li had no other choice. He stood up and said, "Patriarch Yi, wait. I want to meet your Family Patriarch."

Lu Li knew that if he said Jiang Qiling, Jiang Yi would leave right away. So, Lu Li lied that he wanted to see Jiang Wuwo.

"Meet our Family Patriarch?"

Jiang Yi stopped. Throwing Lu Li a confused look, he asked, "What are you meeting him for? He has a lot on his plate and has no time for you."

"I have something big for him!"

Lu Li answered with a snort, "It's a bigger deal than the past. You don't have the authority to make the call. I must talk to your master in person."

Jiang Yi was only half convinced. He thought about it and asked, "Are you sure? If not, he will skin you."

"That's my business. Lead the way."

Lu Li replied coldly and walked directly out. On second thought, Jiang Yi decided to go with him. They entered a yard and then boarded the ship to the Island of Delicacy.

"Ah, there is something wrong with your tea. Where is the bathroom? My belly aches."

Not long after they arrived at the Island of Delicacy, Lu Li asked with a frown and his hands over his stomach. Then he added, "Did some of you try to poison me?"

"Nonsense!"

Jiang Yi glared at him. Seeing how Lu Li was about to soil himself, Jiang Yi said impatiently, "There is one over there. Hurry up. I will let Family Patriarch know. Don't try to fool me. If you anger our Family Patriarch, you will be skinned, if not killed."

"Are you an idiot?"

Hugging his stomach, Lu Li said angrily, "You have so many Human Sovereign Realm warriors. What can I do? Do you even use your brain when you speak?"

Jiang Yi was fuming with rage but Lu Li had already rushed into a side chamber. Jiang Yi had no other choice but to leave angrily. Not everyone could see Jiang Wuwo. Any requests must be reported to him in advance and it all depended on his mood.

Jiang Yi was careful, keeping his psychic power locked on Lu Li until he made sure that Lu Li was in the bathroom. But he still kept his attention on the outside of the bathroom in case Lu Li was up to something.

Lu Li behaved well. Jiang Yi finally retracted his psychic power when he arrived at the door of Jiang Wuwo's study. After all, Jiang Yi must show his respect when he met with the Family Patriarch.

Right at that moment, Lu Li flew up and rushed into the pavilion Jiang Qiling was at. He smashed himself into the most elegant and the largest pavilion. A hole appeared in the wall.

"Lu Li, are you courting death?"

Jiang Yi's roar came right after. More than a dozen strong psychic powers were locked on Lu Li. But soon, someone shouted, "What are you doing? This is my bedroom and he is my friend. Stop that!"

Psychic powers disappeared. However, Jiang Yi came over. He stood outside of the pavilion in rage. Looking at Lu Li through the hole in the wall, he said, "Punk, how dare you lie to me. Get out of there."

"What are you yelling at?"

Jiang Qiling walked out from the hole. Staring at Jiang Yi coldly, she said, "Jiang Yi, I heard that your grandson is married. Do you want him to live like a grass widow from now on?"

"Young Lady, he…" Jiang Yi was so furious that his mustache trembled.

"Get out!"

A glint of coldness appeared in her eyes. She was a smart girl and had already figured out why Lu Li was doing this. She put on a fierce look and said, "All Lu Li wanted to do was to meet me and he is forced to do this because of you. I will make it even with you later on."

Jiang Qiling had come out from closed-door cultivation. As a matter of fact, she had come out several times but she never went to Lu Li. Jiang Yi told her that Lu Li had been in closed-door cultivation and that he never came to the Central Plains or the Ling Empress City.

It was clear now that Jiang Yi had lied to both of them. Otherwise, Lu Li wouldn't have done this.

Jiang Yi felt sorry for himself. He was carrying out Jiang Wuwo's orders and what else could he do? He didn't know how to react to the angry Jiang Qiling.

"Okay, let them go. Or Ling-er will make trouble again." Finally, Jiang Yi was able to fly away with relief when a sound came to his mind.

Jiang Qiling snorted and then went back into the pavilion. Seeing Lu Li was about to say something, she winked at him to stop him.

"Oh~"

Lu Li took the hint. Instead of talking about the Demon-slaying Grounds, he said with a bitter smile, "Lady Qi, it is so hard to meet you these days. The kiwi melons are ripe now. They only bear fruit once in 100 years. If you don't go now, there won't be any left."

"Wow~"

Jiang Qiling shouted in an exaggerated way, "Really? Last time I was there, I was so fascinated by the fruit. I almost missed the chance because of Jiang Yi. That old bastard! Let's go to the Northern Desert now. I want to taste that fruit!"

With that said, Jiang Qiling dragged Lu Li with her outside. They jumped onto a boat from the cliff directly.

"Whoosh~"

A man flew over and landed in the boat as well. Jiang Yi said with a straight face, "Young Lady, Family Patriarch has said that you cannot leave the Island of Delicacy."

"Buzzing~"

Without time wasted, Jiang Qiling released her Bead of Life. Her eyes were wide open in fury as she shouted, "Let's see who dares to stop me today. Get lost!"
