“Stop it!”
Half a month later, Lu Li stopped to rest for a couple of days. When he learned that people were picking concubines for him, he threw a temper.
He was not an emperor that could have several harems. He didn’t need so many wives, even though he was no different from an actual king of the Heaven Reverse Universe. He was not the kind of cruel person that regarded everything in the world as demeaning.
He valued his relationships, and he didn’t want to hurt the innocent. To patriarchs of the Lu Family and Lu Zhengyang, finding a concubine was a trivial matter, and many young ladies from respectable families would be overjoyed to marry him. However, giving them hope and letting them down would inflict great harm, just like Zi Lian.
Lu Li was fully aware that it was his problem that he could not bear children. If anyone of Jiang Qiling and the twins could not bear children, that would be normal. However, none of the three could get pregnant. The problem must lie in Lu Li.
His physical traits were strange. Others could only have one Bloodline skill, but he had several, which made him believe that him not being able to reproduce had everything to do with the Silver Dragon Bloodline.
He was determined and would not develop romance with any other young ladies. Prajna and Ye Xiaoxi could have feelings for him, but he still decided to end their dreams. He didn’t want to establish too many romantic bonds or hurt more young ladies.
He had already reached the Semi-God Realm and had the complete Map of Fundamental Principle. Theoretically speaking, it would not be a hard thing for him to become an immortal. Soon, he would go to the Divinity.
The Divinity was a vast place with countless powerful warriors. He might lose his life at any moment. If he was unlucky and got implicated in a war between the powerful, he could be killed in manslaughter, not to mention that he had several enemies in the Divinity. It was a place full of risks for him.
“I cannot let them go on like this!”
Lu Li made up his mind. He said to Jiang Qiling, Bai Qiuxue, and Bai Xiashuang in a serious tone, “Send my words—I am grateful for all the young ladies, but I will never marry another girl!”
“Darling!”
Jiang Qiling, Bai Qiuxue, and Bai Xiashuang were touched, thinking that Lu Li loved them wholeheartedly, and his heart belonged to them.
Since Lu Li was such a man with affection, the three believed they had to show their attitude as well. Jiang Qiling said with resolution, “Darling, don’t worry about us. We really want to find concubines for you. When new sisters come, we will treat them well. Bearing children for the Lu Family is a major matter. We cannot mess with it.”
“Say no more. I have made my decision!”
Lu Li waved his hand and added, “Do not bring this up again. End of discussion!”
“Sure!”
The three of them were moved. Bai Xiashuang teared up and threw herself into his arms. Bai Qiuxue and Jiang Qiling, on the other hand, looked at each other with worry.
Since Lu Li was determined, Jiang Qiling had to pass on his words to Lu Zhengyang who had no other choice but to send the message.
Soon, Lu Li’s words spread out. Many young ladies were saddened and shed tears in private.
Prajna and Ye Xiaoxi, who were in the King Kong City, left, crying. Prajna returned to the Great Buddhist Temple, and Ye Xiaoxi went back to the small world of the Cyan Phoenix Race. Words had that Prajna had sworn to convert to Buddhism. She would forgo worldly matters and seek nothing other than the truth. Ye Xiaoxi told Ye Cha that she would never come out again and would die of old age in the small world.
There was also Ye Yu—Ye Luo’s younger sister. It was said that she left the Ye City alone after she learned the news. She went to the Great Land. She didn’t allow family guards to follow him, and she was gone.
Many young ladies were saddened. The Lu Family publicly choosing concubines for Lu Li had given them hopes.
During this period of time, many of them had the illusion that they could marry Lu Li. The more hopeful they were, the more disappointed they became. Young ladies of major families valued their dignity. They felt they were slapped on the face by Lu Li and was shamed…
Lu Li said nothing to such information. He went back to cultivation.
It was better to have short, sharp pains than long, dull pains. Prajna and Ye Xiaoxi and Ye Yu had not fallen too hard for him. They would recover after a period of time in sorrow. As for the other young ladies, he did not care for them. Who knew which one of them really wanted to marry him and which ones were only seeking to develop their families?
The Heaven Reverse Universe returned to peace after some time. Something else had happened to divert everyone.
Unexpectedly, He Yue discovered a strange creature, or a king of strange human, in the Prison of Wood, a kind of dwarfs that could become invisible.
It was not only found in the Prison of Wood but also the Waters Region. Those dwarfs could not fight well. They were only at the peak of the Noble Lord Realm, but they were as fast as warriors of the Earth Immortal Realm. They could turn invisible. He Yue could find out because it so happened that a Beast of Primordial Chaos in the Prison of Wood found one of the dwarfs.
It was not surprising that those special dwarfs were found in the Waters Region because there were some small worlds there with special races. However, things were different when some dwarfs appeared in the Prison of Wood.
He Yue and Patriarch of Law Enforcement believed they were scouts from the nine universes upon discussion. They might have been hiding in the Prison of Wood for some time, only He Yue didn’t notice them before.
When Lu Li learned, he was not worried. It was not strange that the Yan Family would send scouts to investigate.
Jun Hongye had fled back. Yan Zhen must have been informed of Lu Li. Before he was absolutely sure, he would not start another round of invasion.
What was more, in case of invasion, Yan Zhen would not be able to go down from the Prison of Wood, thus not being able to touch the base. If Yan Zhen went via the Waters Region, Lu Li could go at once. He might not be able to kill Yan Zhen, but he could murder everyone else. What could Yan Zhen accomplish all by himself?
If Yan Zhen dared to kill civilians of the Heaven Reverse Universe, Lu Li would go to the Divine Imperial Universe. Yan Zhen would not start a lose-lose endeavor.
“Tell Ke Mang to build formations of destruction and illusion at the entrances of Prison of Wood. Plant more scouts in the Waters Region. In addition to He Yue’s subsidiary bodies, send in some Shadow Bats. Let Ye Cha dispatch someone there as well. If warriors of the nine universes dare to come again, I need to know at once. Also… find the dwarfs and kill them all!”
Lu Li resumed cultivation after he gave those orders. He was almost done with the 10th diagram. At this rate, in a year, at most, he would finish all 12 diagrams. Once he combined the 12, he would master the Origin Fundamental Principle related to wind.
According to God of Barbarian, anyone that mastered the Origin Fundamental Principle could become an immortal and rebuild his or her body. The warrior could ascend to the Divinity at any moment and become a god there.
“Well, the Demon-slaying City has been rebuilt, and Emperor of Heaven Reverse’s status and altar were finished by Ke Mang. Once I finish the 12 diagrams, I will contact Emperor of Heaven Reverse for some guidance.”
Lu Li was aware that Emperor of Heaven Reverse had deep ties with the Heaven Reverse Universe. The Heaven Reverse Universe trusted him, and he could find the energy of faith here. Emperor of Heaven Reverse must be happy to give Lu Li some instructions.
An immortal!
Lu Li was a bit excited as he thought of this. Nobody could tell before that a young man from the Northern Desert could not only stand at the peak of the Heaven Reverse Universe but also ascend to the Divinity.
