Chapter 653: Thunderstorm

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

Teleporting from the City of Buddha to the City of Waters would take some time. Generally speaking, it would cost seven or eight days. Given that Lu Li was burdened on his mind, he didn't rest overnight at any city. He would go to a tavern to have something to eat and rest for a couple of hours when he was extremely tired before he resumed his trip. In this way, he managed to reach the City of Waters in merely six days.

After this, there wasn't a long way to go!

Lu Li could reach the Clouds Plains after two more teleportations. By then, he could teleport back to the Drifting Cloud City in one day.

"Are you doing okay?"

Lu Li looked at the seven people with him. They seemed tired but they nodded nonetheless. Lu Li waved his hand and said, "Move on, then. We need to arrive at Clouds Plains today."

When Lu Li left the Gu Family, five patriarchs came along and Gu Min. They had one more person with them now, which was Hu Lang.

But with the Shrink Skill, Hu Lang's appearances changed and his qi and energy were contained. Under normal circumstances, people could not tell that he was Human Sovereign Realm warrior. Only powerful Human Sovereign Realm warriors could tell so.

Hu Lang caught up with Lu Li and the others after they teleported for four times only and he had been following them secretly. Now that Lu Li's cover was blown, it was unnecessary for Hu Lang to stay in the dark any more. Hence, he caught up with them and protected them along the way.

They had been teleporting for several days and nothing had went wrong. None of the Samsara Palace, the Pavilion of Blossoms, Hades Society, and the Lu Family made any move.

Lu Li once again made his name known at the Central Plains. The matter would be learned by the Demon-slaying Hall soon enough. If Lu Li were to die at the Central Plains, the Grand Master of the Demon-slaying Hall would see to it that the matter was settled. By that time, a bunch of old warriors from the Demon-slaying Hall could have some secret investigation to find out the culprit who would face severe consequences…

Arriving at the City of Waters, Lu Li felt exhausted. But he carried on. For one thing, he was dying to get back to the Deserted World. For another, he was still at the Central Plains, others' territory. It was not safe here.

He paid Xuan Crystals and the Teleportation Formation was activated. Lu Li and the team vanished from the City of Waters. This time, the teleportation took longer. After all, they had to travel a long way across the sea.

After half a day, Lu Li finally showed himself in a small city. Hu Lang checked with psychic power at once to make sure that it was safe.

"Um?"

Hu Lang frowned, looking serious. He used his psychic power to the utmost extent to check the island carefully.

"What happened?"

Lu Li also noticed something. It seemed like that the city had been attacked. Hundreds of castles collapsed and some Teleportation Formations at the plaza were smashed. It was a huge mess in the city.

Lu Li and the rest put their guards up out of instinct. The city belonged to a force affiliated with the Great Buddhist Temple. Who would have the courage to make trouble here? The first theory Lu Li developed was conspiracy.

But upon closer look, this idea was dismissed.

There were many bodies and injured in the city. There were marks indicating that they were struck by lightning. Rain was pouring down. Could it be that the city was struck by lightning?

Hu Lang asked a Noble Lord Realm warrior near them, "What is going on?"

The leader had no idea who Lu Li was but he gave an answer with respect after Hu Lang presented his Human Sovereign Realm energy, "A commotion at the Clouds Sea. It's a thunderstorm that only happens every several decade or so. We are not the worst here. I heard that casualties at some tribes are great."

"Thunderstorm?"

Hu Lang relaxed. Noticing Lu Li was still confused, he explained, "The Clouds Sea is not stable and thunderstorms are usual. The lightning will extend to all directions. If the center of thunderstorm happens to be near an island, then the island will see misery. Once a big island was struck and after the thunderstorm, the millions on the island all died."

"That cruel!"

Lu Li looked up to the sky, feeling frightened. But he was relaxed as well. It would be fine as long as it was not some conspiracy. It would be a matter of days before the Teleportation Formation was repaired. He could afford to wait for several days.

"Boom, boom, boom~"

From the northwest came roars of thunder. Lu Li and the others looked over and saw strikes of lightning tearing apart the sky like silver dragons, savage and horrifying. The thunderstorm was not over yet. It moved to the west.

Lu Li turned to Hu Lang who was asking the Noble Lord Realm leader how long it would take before the Teleportation Formation could be repaired. The leader replied five days as the people in the city were busy healing the wounded and rescuing the dying.

Their trip was stalled because the Teleportation Formation to the Clouds Plains was damaged. To fly back would take longer, more than half a month at least.

Lu Li and the others walked toward a tavern. Everyone was tired and they could use a good rest. Some taverns survived the thunderstorm. Lu Li rented a yard. He went in and fell soundly asleep, leaving Hu Lang in charge.

Hu Lang was a Human Sovereign Realm warrior with a strong soul. He was tired but he could not afford to be careless. He sat next to Lu Li, observing the city with psychic power to make sure that no trap was set up.

The city belonged to a family affiliated with the Great Buddhist Temple. There weren't too many powerful warriors here. The Island Owner of the Island of Tranquility was only at the Noble Lord Realm. Hu Lang was relieved to see no Human Sovereign Realm warrior.

"Go and have a look!"

After resting for half a day, the patriarchs of the Gu Family recovered a bit. Hu Lang sent out the five patriarchs to inspect around the island and verify if there was really a thunderstorm going on.

The five patriarchs sneaked out. An hour later, the Island Owner of the Island of Tranquility came in person to visit Lu Li. Clearly, the Island Owner was informed of the connection between the Great Buddhist Temple and Lu Li.

Lu Li was still soundly asleep and a Noble Lord Realm warrior wasn't worthy of his time. Hu Lang made an appearance and sent the Island Owner away after some chitchat.

Several hours later, the five patriarchs came back one after one. They had confirmed the news. The Island of Tranquility was struck by thunderstorm and it was not the only one. Several islands nearby also suffered from great casualties. At least hundreds of thousands died or injured in the thunderstorm.

Lu Li woke up after a full day of slumber. He was reassured after Hu Lang explained to him. He wouldn't worry as long as it was not some plot arranged by Ji Mengtian or the others. The Teleportation Formation was under repair and the Island Owner of the Island of Tranquility paid much attention to it. It should be done within three or four days.

"Boom, boom, boom~"

To the west, thunder was roaring. The thunderstorm had yet to die down. Lu Li had something to eat. He became bored, sitting in the castle and found it hard to cultivate as he could not calm down from his concern of Bai Qiuxue.

"I should check the thunderstorm."

Lu Li remembered the waters to the east of the Central Plains and how he was inspired by the tornado wreaking havoc. Because of that, he learned the Speed Profound Meaning. The thunderstorm at the west was horrifying. Maybe he would learn something here.

"Thunderstorms are dangerous!"

Hu Lang once witnessed thunderstorm so he was having doubts. Lu Li rolled his eyes and said, "We will only take a look from the outside and not go into the eye of the storm. It's not like I am pursuing my own demise."

"Alright."

Hu Lang waved his hand. They left with Gu Min and the five patriarchs, which could make it safer given that the five patriarchs of the Gu Family were at the peak of the Noble Lord Realm.
