Lu Li didn"t find anything problematic with his Fate Wheel after he inspected it. He also controlled his Fate Wheel to fly around the yard. Other than the additional silver dragon, there was nothing else miraculous about this Fate Wheel.
Lu Li didn"t fly up as it was forbidden at the Mystic Armor Mountain. Lu Li had already violated the rule once and he could not do it again which would give Lu Zhengtan something to hold him against. Lu Zhengtan would make some trouble. Lu Li didn"t worry about it too much but Lu Feixue might be affected because of him.
"I"ll check it later. I want to take a shower first."
Lu Li shook his head when he smelled the stink on him. He flew his Fate Wheel down and it went back to his Spirit Sea.
Fate Wheels were miracles. One of the Mystical Materials used had a special power that could shrink down or enlarge the Fate Wheel at will. Of course, it required another secret skill as well which was included in the secret method Lu Family gave to Lu Li.
"I"ll go take a shower now and we will talk later."
Lu Li waved to Ming Yu and Yu Huashen and went to the hall. There was a maid there. Lu Li asked casually, "Where is my aunt?"
"Lady Feixue left in the morning. She said she would be back later."
The maid answered with respect. Lu Li nodded as a reply. He went to the bathroom and cleaned up. He took out some clean clothes and was ready to change.
"Eh?"
As he walked past the bronze mirror on the wall, he realized something was off. He went back and checked. His pupils widened in shock because… the silver dragon on his back was gone.
"What is happening?"
Lu Li was startled. Silver dragon mark was his Bloodline mark. How could it be gone? Could he still use his three Bloodline Skills? Blood Claw was his most powerful combat skill.
"Blood Claw!"
Lu Li shouted. Nothing happened to his back, yet on his right hand, scales appeared as his fingers lengthened with hooks on the nails. A beautiful claw showed up.
"Okay, it"s okay."
Lu Li was relieved to see that his Bloodline Skill was still there. He pondered about for a while and had an idea. He sat up with his legs crossed and took an internal inspection of his Fate Wheel.
As he had expected, the silver dragon was glowing and moving around on his Fate Wheel…
"How!"
Lu Li was befuddled. How did the silver dragon on his back got onto his Fate Wheel? Bloodline marks could move? Or… his was not a Bloodline mark?
There were so many questions and so many odd things that Lu Li couldn"t think straight. However, he could not ask anyone about it and he could not figure this out on his own.
He reverted his Blood Claw and took another look at his Fate Wheel. The silver dragon was motionless.
"Bloodline mark can move on its own? Is this dragon a living thing?"
Lu Li thought about it. He felt chills running down on his spine. If there was a dragon hidden inside him, it might be a bad thing. Even more so… the dragon might have transformed from a demon.
"Should I go to ask Great Patriarch?"
Out of instinct, Lu Li wanted to find help but he lacked the courage. What if Great Patriarch was in favor of Lu Zhengtan? Then Lu Li might be regarded as a demon and be killed right away.
"I have only my grandpa and my father to turn to."
Lu Li gave it some consideration and decided that he could not take the risk. He inspected his Fate Wheel again and again, trying to see if he could find something.
Fate Wheel was still a Fate Wheel and the silver dragon was the same. Apart from the location of the silver dragon, there was nothing else out of ordinary with his body.
"Young Master!"
Lu Li had been in the bathroom for two hours. Yu Huashen"s words alarmed Lu Li.
He put his robe on, walked out and asked with a frown, "What is it?"
Yu Huashen reported, "Patriarch Eight asked you to go over to him. He says… there is news of your sister!"
"My sister!"
Lu Li"s eyes glowed. He became excited. All he could think of now was Lu Ling. He had forgotten the strange things in his body.
"I need to go!"
With that said, he ran out like a gust of wind. At the Hall of Patriarchs, he rushed in as he was patient enough to wait for the escorts to report. Those escorts knew that Patriarch Eight was asking for Lu Li or they might have thought Lu Li was here to create disturbance again.
"Whoosh~"
Lu Li ran into the Hall of Patriarchs and saw Patriarch Four and Patriarch Eight. He asked with such ardent pa.s.sion in his eyes, "What is it? Have you saved my sister? Is she coming back soon?"
Patriarch Four and Patriarch Eight said nothing in reply. They both looked sad. Lu Li"s heart skipped a beat. Could it be that something horribly wrong happened?
"Lu Li!"
Patriarch Eight sighed and said, "We just got news from the Palace of Blue Lions. They have arrived at the Palace of G.o.ddess and met their master. They found Ghost Snake Granny as well. But…"
"But what!" Lu Li had lost his calmness. He yelled, "Tell me now."
Patriarch Eight paused for a bit and said, "They couldn"t find your sister…"
"No way!" Lu Li responded strongly, "It was Ghost Snake Granny that took my sister. The Palace of G.o.ddess lied."
"Hear me out first."
Patriarch Eight waved his hand and said, "Ghost Snake Granny didn"t deny that she had taken your sister. She admitted that she wanted to bring your sister back to the Palace of G.o.ddess when she saw Lu Ling was of Fire Phoenix birth. However… on their way from the Northern Desert to the Cyan Plains, they were attacked by strange powerful warriors and your sister went missing."
"It"s not possible!"
Lu Li shook his head, then killing intent surged out from him. He thought about it and said, "This must be an excuse made by the Palace of G.o.ddess. The punks of the Palace of Blue Lions have been fooled. No… I have to go to the Palace of G.o.ddess in person. Please send some powerful warriors to go with me. I will kill all of them."
"Don"t get so riled up yet. This is not a lie. It"s the fact!"
Patriarch Eight explained, "The Palace of Blue Lions sent over a warrior of the Human Sovereign Realm who understands a secret skill to search souls. That warrior already searched Ghost Snake Granny"s soul and he did that to everyone that went to the Northern Desert with her as well. This is the hard fact…"
"Boom!"
Lu Li felt like thunder had went off in his head. He trembled so hard that he almost fell to the ground.
Lu Ling went missing? Could she… be dead now?
There was an ocean between Northern Desert and Cyan Plains. Lu Ling didn"t have any power to fend for herself. If she went missing over the ocean, how could she make it alive?
"Dead? My sister is dead?"
Lu Li murmured, scared out of his wits. He looked as white as snow. Patriarch Eight said hurriedly, "No, she is not dead. What is going on inside your brain? Ghost Snake Granny put a ghost snake on your sister secretly. She deduced that your sister must have been taken away by an unfamiliar powerful warrior as the ghost snake showed they went all the way to the west!"
"Unfamiliar powerful warrior?"
Lu Li could see hope again. As long as she was still alive, she could be found. That unfamiliar powerful warrior might also want to take Lu Ling after he discovered she was of Fire Phoenix birth, just like Ghost Snake Granny.
Lu Li had lost his wits. He looked at Patriarch Eight sadly and asked, "What to do now?"
Patriarch Four replied, "The warriors of Palace of Blue Lions are looking for information right now. When Ghost Snake Granny was attacked, she found that the powerful warrior had a special kind of Profound Meaning, the Holy Light Profound Meaning of the seventh rank. We are sending people to search as well. There are not a lot of powerful warriors that understand Holy Light. Not so many warriors have the chance to understand a Profound Meaning of the seventh rank in the world. We can find this person with the clues we have."
Patriarch Eight nodded and said, "Lu Li, put your mind at ease. We will find him, no matter who he is, and we can get your sister back."
"Sister!"
Lu Li closed his eyes in sorrow. He had thought that he could see Lu Ling soon, and he wanted to give her a surprise. But now…
