Chapter 363: Level Five Mystic Armor

Chitchat brought the three together.
They were all about the same age and from the same family. Lu Lin and Lu Hongyu were quite in admiration about what Lu Li did. On top of that, Lu Li was the son of the legendary Lu Renhuang and the grandson of the Family Patriarch, so people would be drawn to him out of instinct.
Lu Li asked maids to serve some tea. A maid served some dark cyan-colored tea. Lu Lin glanced over and exclaimed, “Lu Li, this is called Qianshan Leaf, one of the best kind. It costs about five million Xuan Crystals for less than two ounces. Patriarch Eight is treating you so well.”
Lu Hongyu pouted and said, “Grandpa favors you more than me. I wanted to get some from him and I begged for half a month. Lu Li, do you have more of this Qianshan Leaf? Can you give me some? This is really good.”
Lu Li was surprised. He grew up in the Di Long Tribe and he never learned to appreciate tea. He asked the maid, “How much tea do we have left?”
The maid thought about it and replied, “We have some left, probably two or three pounds.”
“Give them one pound each!”
Lu Li waved his hand and the maid excused herself at once to pack the tea. Lu Hongyu smiled from ear to ear and threw Lu Li a flirting glance. Lu Lin nodded with a smile as well. He was fonder of Lu Li than the tea. Lu Li really knew how to act. He gave them one pound each which didn’t leave enough for himself.
“Cousin Lu Li.” Lu Hongyu was in a good mood and she became more talkative. She moved closer and asked, “I heard that after you were born, your parents went missing. Where is Uncle Renhuang? How did you grow up?”
Lu Lin also moved in closer as he was curious as well. Lu Li, on the other hand, didn’t want to elaborate. He thought about it and said, “How did I grow up? I live with my sister and she brought me up. I have never seen my parents. Then I grew and I became more powerful and I was lucky to make some new friends. Finally, I am able to come back.”
Lu Li’s words were casual but there were many stories between the lines. Lu Lin and Lu Hongyu were both smart enough to hear the difficulties and sufferings from the simple words.
Lu Hongyu looked a bit sad. She patted Lu Li’s shoulder and said, “I have heard about your sister. Don’t worry. I have asked my grandpa. The Palace of Blue Lions has sent somebody over. They will bring your sister back in three months, tops.”
Lu Lin added, “That is right. Lu Li, you don’t have to worry about getting bullied now that you are back at the family. We will help you. I have heard about the Song Family as well. Our family is currently closed off. When the ban is lifted, I will bring people over to destroy the Song Family for you.”
“Thank you!”
Lu Li smiled and thanked them. He felt that Lu Lin and Lu Hongyu were sincere. The big shots were scheming against each other, but the young ones, or at least Lu Lin and Lu Hongyu, were not as bad.
“Oh…”
Lu Lin thought of something. His expressions became serious. But he continued after some thoughts, “Lu Li, in a month, your grandpa’s big brother will be back. Lu Suan and Lu Ni will be back as well. You must be careful. I think they will make trouble for you…”
“I dare them!”
Lu Hongyu glared and said, “I will not let them go if they dare to bully my cousin Lu Li.”
“Lu Suan? Lu Ni?”
Lu Li frowned. It was the first time he ever heard about the two names. He asked curiously, “Who are they?”
Lu Lin explained, “They are sons of Second Uncle. They are also the best of the young generations. One of them is 21 and the other 20. One of them is at the middle stage of the Noble Lord Realm, and the other the initial stage. They have both mastered a Profound Meaning.”
“Umm…”
Lu Li was surprised. The two of them were only 20 and 21 but they were both at the Noble Lord Realm. They must have awakened the King Kong Bloodline as well and they mastered Profound Meaning. They must be able to best other warriors of the same level.
Very few could reach the Noble Lord Realm at the age of 20. Disciples of the 12 Royal Families were really talented. Granted, they were helped with endless resources of the Lu Family, but nobody else could help one master Profound Meaning. The talents of the two were unquestionable.
Lu Li somehow understood why Lu Lin was worried.
In the old days, the Lu Family was controlled by Lu Li’s grandpa, but now it was by his grandpa’s big brother. In other words, Lu Renhuang was a prince and Lu Li was the king’s grandson.
However, now the king’s grandsons became Lu Suan and Lu Ni. Before Lu Li came back, Lu Suan and Lu Ni got all the spotlight among the young generation. Lu Li’s return would impact their status. Therefore, they might make things difficult for Lu Li…
“Cousin Lu Li, no need to be afraid!”
Lu Hongyu comforted Lu Li when she saw he didn’t say anything. “I am here. Nobody can cause trouble for you. I will skin them if they do.”
“Thank you, Cousin Hongyu.”
Lu Li smiled. But he shook his head and said, “How can a man hide behind a woman? Also, I am not a pushover. They will find themselves in serious trouble. I have killed warriors of the Noble Lord Realm before, you know.”
Lu Li emitted some killing intent as he said. Lu Lin and Lu Hongyu were stunned. Lu Lin said hurriedly, “Lu Li, you cannot act like this. The Hall of Patriarchs and our seniors will not stop disciples from competing with each other, but if you kill someone, nobody can help you out. The No. 1 rule of the Lu Family is to exile the ones that hurt our own people and those can never come back again.”
Lu Hongyu nodded and said, “Yes. This rule is set by Lu Family’s very first Family Patriarch. Over the years, someone did breach this rule. Some were banished from the family and the more serious offenders were exiled to the Omen Island. Some were even killed on the spot…”
“Oh, I see!”
Lu Li understood. Then he looked towards Lu Lin’s neck with curiosity and asked, “Cousin Lin, have you awakened the King Kong Bloodline? Is the Mystic Armor really that good?”
Lu Li was itchy to see. Lu Lin said with a smile, “You want to have a try?”
“Yes!”
Lu Li nodded. Lu Lin stood up. With a dark glare from his neck, he gave out a surge of powerful qi that made Lu Li feel Lu Lin’s blood was boiling.
“Whoosh, whoosh~”
Lu Lin was covered in black light, then layers of cyan-colored hard substance appeared out of his body. The stuff curdled quickly. In the end, Lu Lin was covered up in an armor, except his face.
A beautiful cyan armor appeared out of Lu Lin’s body. The armor was glaring, very glamorous. There was a kind of strange qi that made Lu Lin look like a god.
Lu Lin made an inviting gesture and said, “Lu Li, I heard that your beast claw is powerful? Do you want to try it out on my mystic armor?”
Lu Li touched his nose and asked, “Are you sure? Will it harm you if your Mystic Armor is broken?”
“Ha, ha, ha!”
Lu Lin laughed confidently. Lu Hongyu explained, “Lu Li, go ahead. Even if the Mystic Armor is broken, he will be fine. Only he will become a bit weaker and he can recover after a couple of days rest. Lu Lin’s Mystic Armor is at the fifth level. Average attacks cannot breach it.”
“Then I will do it. Blood Claw!”
Lu Li shouted. His right sleeve was torn up. On his right hand, there were scales emerging. His fingers lengthened and his nails had hooks on them. His soft hand became a handsome yet horrifying beast claw.
“Swish~”
Lu Li made a move to Lu Lin’s arm. The claw scratched on Lu Lin’s Mystic Armor on his arm. With sparks flying up, the Mystic Armor was torn up. Blood spilled out. Lu Li stopped immediately and Lu Lin stepped backwards in terror…
“Hiss, hiss~”
Lu Hongyu’s mouth was so wide open that she could put an entire egg there. She shouted in surprise, “Good heaves, you can break level five Mystic Armor. Lu Li, what kind of skill is this? So freaky…’
