Time flies . Soon, it was one year later .
During this time, the Demon-slaying Battleground had been peaceful and so was the Great Land . Nothing worth noticing happened other than that the Lu Family had brought a hide-out of the Yaksha Race to ruins .
The Lu Family obtained two additional pieces of territories and used the year to stabilize . Lu Family"s power was a matter of paramount importance . Even though Lu Li never showed up in public and Lu Renhuang had been gone for a year, since the two of them were still alive, n.o.body would dare to offend the Lu Family .
It had been a full year since Lu Renhuang went to the Prison of Primordial Chaos with two patriarchs of the Demon-slaying Hall . None of them sent any words back . But their jade talismans of life were still intact, which was why Lu Li was not worried .
Many warriors that were frozen in the Demon-slaying Hall had pa.s.sed away . Only those at the Human Sovereign Realm and Earth Immortal Realm were still clinging to life . If Lu Renhuang could not come back with the gra.s.ses in another year, not even Jiang Tianshun could survive .
Lu Li had been cultivating for the entire year and so were Bai Qiuxue and Jiang Qiling . But Bai Xiashuang had been wandering around . Lu Li dispatched three Earth Immortal Realm warriors to protect her, and she was with Little White, which further guaranteed her safety…
Lu Li did not achieve much during this year . He learned some small components, engraved them into his Bead of Life and integrated them with the first small diagram .
However…
The new ones seemed insignificant . His Feather Wind castle was strengthened by only a small margin, even though the stability was improved, and he could build the castle faster .
He had made progress in Xuan Energy and Soul Pond, and he had been dissolving the seal of the Wicked Bead fast . He was more than halfway into dissolving the second seal . He estimated that in three to four months at most he could finish .
But he was confused . He was already halfway through the process, but the Wicked Bead showed no new function . With the first seal, the bead could fly when he dissolved half of the seal and as he progressed, the bead gained speed gradually .
"I need to take some rest . "
Lu Li was a bit tired after a year of cultivation . He was feeling guilty because he rarely spent time with his three wives .
He left his room and checked the other two rooms with psychic power at once, wondering if Jiang Qiling and Bai Qiuxue were still in closed-door cultivation .
"Well? I am lucky!"
Neither Jiang Qiling nor Bai Qiuxue was in their rooms . He was pleasantly surprised that they happened to stop cultivation at the same time .
He checked the yard but found no trace of the two . Lu Li walked out and asked an Earth Immortal Realm guard, "Do you know where they are?"
"They have gone to the Deserted World . "
The Earth Immortal Realm soul slave replied, "There is a newly found pa.s.sageway to the Deserted World . I heard that the land of treasure was discovered . There is a hot spring that contains a special liquid that can better the body and helps maintain a person"s beauty and their youthful state . Madam Shuang invited them over . "
"Really?"
Lu Li was intrigued . That must be an interesting piece of land . He waved his hand and said, "Let"s go and have a look . "
He left with the Earth Immortal Realm soul slave . He told the guard outside to let Lu Ling and Ming Yu know that he was leaving for the Deserted World and teleported away .
The new pa.s.sageway was found in a perilous place in the Deserted World . Of course, perilous was relative to the average resident of the Deserted World . For Earth Immortal Realm warriors, the place was not dangerous .
After three rounds of teleportations and two hours of flying, Lu Li arrived in a mountain range, in which there was some toxic haze that was formed naturally rather than man-made . The haze was highly toxic . Even n.o.ble Lord Realm warriors could die upon touching .
There was someone from the Shadowland Race at the foot of the mountain . They came over to salute Lu Li, "Greetings, Saint Lord . "
"Please rise!"
"Yes!"
A patriarch of the Shadowland Race replied, "The Clan Leader came in person after the pa.s.sageway was discovered . Lady Ling sent someone to clear away the toxic insects . Our Clan Leader ordered us to build some formations and cleared out a path that can isolate the toxic haze for people to come and go easily . "
"Your Clan Leader has done well!"
Lu Li was satisfied with what Ke Mang had done . He asked again with curiosity, "Where is that pa.s.sageway connecting to? Have you built a formation at the other end?"
"To the Central Plains!"
The patriarch answered, "The exit at the other end was by the eastern seas, not far from the Central Plains . The Clan Leader has had a formation built over there . The Lu Family Patriarch has had Teleportation Formations built . He also allocated an army to guard . In the future, it will be easier for you, Saint Lord, to go to the City of Mystic Armor from here . "
"Nicely done!"
Lu Li nodded . He went along the path . On both sides were formations to stop the toxic haze from spreading out .
He arrived at the other end in the time for three incense sticks to burn . An army was stationed here, and a castle was being constructed . Evidently, this was where they could teleport out from .
"Where is Qiuxue?"
Lu Li checked with psychic power but failed to see Qiuxue and his other two wives here . He went on and finally found a cave which was covered up by a formation of illusion . Outside, three of his Earth Immortal Realm soul slaves .
"Whoosh~"
Lu Li walked over to the cave and asked the three soul slaves, "The ladies are in there, are they?"
"Yes, Young Master . "
One of the Earth Immortal Realm soul slaves nodded . Lu Li went in . As soon as he entered the cave, someone started checking him with psychic power . It was Jiang Qiling"s maids who were from the Pavilion of Delicacy . Three of them were at the n.o.ble Lord Realm .
"Master!"
The maids recognized Lu Li . They put their guards down . Lu Li nodded to them as a reply and came inside . The cave had been renovated . There were oil lamps along the way and the path was smooth .
"Ha, ha, ha~"
At the depth of the cave, Lu Li heard some pleasant laughs . It was Bai Xiashuang . There was another formation of illusion nearby that could cut off psychic powers . Two more maids were found here .
"Master . "
The two maids curtsied to Lu Li at once . They were about to tell Jiang Qiling and the other two when he stopped them and waved the two maids away . The maids understood his intentions . They left, blus.h.i.+ng .
He walked in through the formation of illusion . There was a thick mist, which blurred his views . He saw a pond in here, with a trickling sound of a stream .
He could faintly see three beautiful girls in the pond, like three mermaids . The steam from the water curled up around them . The three of them had rosy skins, the result from soaking in the hot spring . They were sitting in a row . It was a sight too beautiful to be appreciated all at once . Nothing in the world could compare to them .
"Who is there?"
Hearing the footsteps, Jiang Qiling sent a glaring look . Bai Qiuxue and Bai Xiashuang were startled . They covered their chest and snuck under the surface, they then looked over after being startled .
"Ha, ha, who has the guts to come in here apart from me?"
Lu Li said . The three of them relaxed . But they were embarra.s.sed and shy at the same time . Bai Qiuxue protested playfully, "What are you doing here? Go . Let us put on some clothes . "
"Ha, ha, ha!"
Lu Li grinned . He dashed into the pond, "My beauties, you think I can let such a wonderful opportunity slide away? Just do as I say . We are in the middle of nowhere . You can shout all you want but you will not get any help…"
"Ah, you animal—"
Bai Xiashuang shouted in an exaggerated and playful manner . The maids outside pretended that they had not heard a thing . They stood then and there, red in the face .
They all knew they were going to hear something that would make them s.h.i.+er…Time flies . Soon, it was one year later .

Nothing worth noticing happened other than that the Lu Family had brought a hide-out of the Yaksha Race to ruins .
