Lu Li’s anger shook the Great Land.
Many leaders of the Great Land were now gathered in the City of Mystic Armor just for one meeting with Lu Li.
A leader from the Ocean Plains almost died in Lu Li’s hands and all he wanted was to talk to Lu Li.
Those leaders in the City of Mystic Armor were the first to know when Lu Zhengyang published the announcement. Every single one of them was over the moon.
They were wrecking their brains to think of a way to meet Lu Li and to build some form of connection. This could not come at a better time.
A favor from Lu Li!
That was something invaluable. For the Palace of Immortal’s Inquiries, Red Lunar and Palace of Heaven’s Roars, their leaders had been badgering Lu Zhengyang but he never said anything definitive to them.
The three masters were in an unsettled state of mind. Here, presented in front of them was a once in a blue moon chance. If they could help Lu Li locate Ji Family’s hideouts, at least their forces could be safe, if not gaining favors from Lu Li.
People had researched for what kind of a person Lu Li was. He could help his friends at the loss of his life, but he was heartless and cruel to enemies. The Great Buddhist Temple and Tumulus of Universe were close with Lu Li but not so close as to like brothers. Yet still, the two forces were given two pieces of vast lands. Lu Li indeed was generous to his friends.
Lu Li would be very grateful to those that could help him. The three forces believed they had found a way to save their families.
The three masters flew back at once and resorted to all means possible to track down Ji Family’s hideouts.
They were not alone. The entire Great Land saw families after families taking actions. Masters at the other plains mobilized their forces to look for Ji Family as well.
Some families and warriors that had retired from society took actions. They might not be able to find out where the Ji Family was hiding. That being said, even killing a few dozen Ji Family warriors could generate mountains of Xuan Crystals.
All of a sudden, the Great Land was crowded with warriors looking for Ji Family’s hideouts and Ji Family warriors in every corner.
In addition to them, Tumulus of Universe, Great Buddhist Temple, and Pavilion of Delicacy sent out people on this search mission. They were close to Lu Li already. Nevertheless, their relationships would be better if they could help Lu Li.
In two days!
Five hideouts of disciples of Ji Family’s branches were found. Thousands of Ji Family warriors were killed. Before those warriors’ bodies were delivered to the City of Mystic Armor, some big families had spent double the price to purchase them.
Several sixth rank and seventh rank families were dying to find a chance to connect to the Lu Family. Those dead bodies were the most precious gifts of all…
Ji Family must own one or two secret small worlds as their base, similar to the ancestral grounds of Leng Family and Feng Family in the Central Imperial Universe.
This kind of ancestral grounds was highly confidential. No outsiders should know. To locate these small worlds would be incredibly hard. What was more, most of Ji Family’s disciples must have been sent to the small worlds. Without finding those small worlds, the base of Ji Family would stay unknown.
The outsiders did not know but senior leaders of the Ji Family must know, such as a leader of a branch!
Therefore, the Palace of Immortal’s Inquiries, Red Lunar, Palace of Heaven’s Roars, Tumulus of Universe and others had all turned their focus to branches of the Ji Family which were many across the entire Great Land. Many branches owned some territories of their own that they were unwilling to give up. Those did not go to the small worlds with the rest.
On the third day, the Palace of Immortals Inquires located a branch that was hiding in a perilous place. The thousands of disciples there were all killed by the army of the Palace of Immortals Inquires.
It was a pity that…
The leader of this branch committed suicide before the Palace of Immortal’s Inquiries was able to get information about Ji Family’s small worlds. The Master of the Palace of Immortal’s Inquiries was vexed. He scolded his oldest son who led this army.
Red Lunar and Palace of Heaven’s Roars targeted two other branches each. They were able to destroy the two branches. The Palace of Heaven’s Roars learned where the Ji Family’s base was.
Lu Li was informed. Patriarch Eight came to deliver the news in person. Lu Li was still with Bai Xiashang. He was delighted and asked at once, “Where is it?”
“Samsara Region, a small world that is as large as the Deserted World!”
Patriarch Eight explained, “One hundred thousand years ago, Samsara Palace discovered this place. The first entrance they found was actually at the Serenity Plains. All those that knew about the entrance were killed. This region was converted into Ji Family’s base and it has been operating for one hundred thousand years.”
“How many entrances are there?”
Lu Li asked. If there were only one and that was sealed by the Ji Family, then they would have no access.
“Two!”
Patriarch Eight sighed, “According to information we obtained from the leader of that Ji Family branch, both entrances have been closed. Only patriarchs of the Ji Family that have a jade talisman can open the seal. The families are trying to capture a patriarch. Based on what we know, there are three to four patriarchs of the Ji Family hiding outside. Well… Lu Ling has already developed a plan.”
“Okay!”
Lu Ling was in charge and they knew that several patriarchs of the Ji Family were out there. It should not be difficult to capture one or two. Lu Li added after some thoughts, “Send someone to the Inferno and get Ke Mang out. Let’s see if we can open the seal somehow. Send two Earth Immortal Realm warriors to each entrance. Let us take a break from the territorial fights. The lands are not going anywhere.”
Ji Family’s ambush made Lu Li feel the crisis of imminent danger. The Great Land was a vast place. Lu Li had many relatives and friends. If Ji Family was determined to retaliate, they could assassinate one person this time and another one next. Lu Li did not know how many he would lose.
Bai Xiashuang was lucky this time. But what about next time?
If she was killed, Lu Li would spend the rest of his life in guilt. At this moment, he finally understood why Lu Ling said he must be cold as ice when it came to enemies and he must never show mercy to them. Otherwise, he would only hurt himself.
Samsara Place was destroyed. Ji Zhantian died. Ji Mengtian was killed as well. All hope was lost for the Ji Family which had nothing left but hatred. They would exhaust their means to retaliate. To protect his family and friends, Lu Li must find all of the Ji Family and kill them all.
What was more, he would have Lu Zhengyang search for survivors of the Hades Society, Pavilion of Blossoms, Life League and Yaksha Race as well. The feud between families could never be solved. Lu Li would rather wipe out those forces now to at least guarantee safety for the future than suffering from endless assassinations…
Bai Xiashuang woke up. But it would still take her several takes to recover. She could not teleport now. Lu Li asked Lu Ling to handle everything while he stayed with Bai Xiashuang to wait for further news.
After 12 days, he heard a piece of good news!
Lu Ling was able to capture a patriarch of the Ji Family. He was the Earth Immortal Realm warrior that participated in the assassination of Bai Xiashuang. Lu Li could no longer stay calm upon hearing the news. Bai Xiashuang was almost recovered. He decided to lead the army in person to destroy the Samsara Region.
“I want to go with you!”
Bai Xiashuang was restless. Also, this time, they were avenging her. She insisted to go with the army. Lu Li had no other choice but to take her in his Wicked Bead. They set off for the Kui City.
