The girl was clever. But Lu Li didn’t want to make irresponsible remarks so he gave a simple answer, “Everyone has a secret. I don’t want to talk about it.”
“Sure~”
Yin Qingsi nodded. Lowering her head, she said shyly, “I am sorry, Young Master Lu, for crossing the line. Are you on your way to the Central Imperial Universe?”
“Yes!” Lu Li didn’t try to lie about it. He nodded and continued, “I am going to the Central Imperial Universe for some personal matters.”
“Oh, I see.”
Pointing to the west, Yin Qingsi said, “My family’s base camp is over there. It will only take us four or five days. Young Master Lu, can you accompany me there? I am seriously wounded…of course, if you think that is too much trouble, I can go on my own.”
Lu Li sighed. Beautiful as she was, the girl was a load of trouble. They had been only on the way for a couple of hours and it almost cost his life. Who knew what else could go wrong after a couple of days?
That being said…
He had made a decision even though he almost lost his life because of her. They were out of danger now so it was not reasonable to leave her alone at this moment. Lu Li said with a forced smile, “Lady Yin, remember to buy me a drink.”
“Of course!”
Yin Qingsi nodded but didn’t say more words of appreciation. She sat down with her legs crossed to heal her wounds. Lu Li said nothing more either and focused on the journey ahead.
A beautiful lady, even though she was treating her wounds, was keeping him company. The journey became less boring. After half a day, Yin Qingsi took out a pagoda. She went in to have a shower and changed into a clean robe, which was more delightful.
Yin Qingsi had been covered by a strong smell of blood. After the shower, she gave off a faint fragrance of a maiden, which was pleasant to the senses. Her beautiful and pure face was a delight as well. Every half a day, Yin Qingsi would stop treating her wounds and would take out some fruits, prepare food and fine wine to share with Lu Li. The journey was no longer tedious.
This time, the two were in luck. They were on the way for three days without running into any human beings. They merely encountered some Beasts of Primordial Chaos.
Lu Li became relieved. It had been some time but no pursuing force was coming. Yin Qingsi was recovering fast and she was almost healed now. She was no longer Lu Li’s burden. As a matter of fact, she could help him out should they run into enemies.
The trip was not exciting yet Lu Li somehow wished it would stay this way. Anything happening in the Prison of Gold could mean fatal danger to him.
It was a pity that…
Wishful thinking was not the reality. They flew for another half a day when they ran into some humans. They were in a group, two males and a female.
“All Human Sovereign Realm warriors? Sh*t…cannot there be one Noble Lord Realm warrior in the Prison of Gold?”
Lu Li was speechless. Every human warrior he had met here were at least of the Human Sovereign Realm. The two males and one female didn’t seem to be like regular humans but alien races. They had strange tattoos on their foreheads, pretty but coquettish.
“Qi Ming!”
Yin Qingsi opened her eyes. She could not see but she did turn to a man. When she sensed that the two men and the girl were approaching, Yin Qingsi said to Lu Li immediately, “Young Master Lu, I have some unresolved issues with them. You go now. I am fine and I can deal with them.”
“Whoosh~”
Yin Qingsi flew up, like a lark. She stepped onto her Bead of Life as a white feather fan appeared in her hand. She dashed on fearlessly.
“Ha, ha, ha, Yin Qingsi, enemies sure cannot avoid each other!”
From the distance came a girl’s laughter. The three people were all intimidating. The girl talking and a male next to her in an elegant robe were both at the middle stage of the Human Sovereign Realm while the other one was at the initial stage.
“Run!”
Lu Li didn’t hesitate. He was not a savior and he was not related to Yin Qingsi. He had no agenda toward her so naturally he wouldn’t sacrifice his life for her again and again.
His life was valuable as well. If he were dead, then Lu Ling, Bai Qiuxue and all the others would have to face the attack from the four forces alone. He could not talk about death and he could not take risks at will. He must work hard to survive and to develop.
Men could storm crowns for a femme!
However, that depended on whether the femme was his or not. Needless to say, Yin Qingsi came from a distinguished household. Even The Wicked knew that. Lu Li wasn’t so cocky to think that every beauty in the world would be attracted by his heroic bearing and become his confidante. What was more, he was not interested in Yin Qingsi. He was a nobody that could die at any time and he didn’t have the right for romance…
“Whoosh~”
Flying on his Fate Wheel, Lu Li sped up to the extreme. He went to the sides to take a detour. His departure caught the attention from the two males and the girl. That man in the elegant robe snorted. He moved, attempting to go after Lu Li.
“Qi Xiang, he is innocent. Your opponent is me!”
Yin Qingsi shouted. She waved her feather fan at the man. Xuan Qi in heaven and earth were gathered around and they were formed into whooshing wind dragons.
“Hmm!”
The cold fox girl snorted and said with murderous intent, “Leave that Eternal Realm warrior alone. This is a rare chance. Let us take the Blind’s life.”
“Boom, boom, boom!”
A fierce battle broke out but that was not Lu Li’s concern anymore. If he could best warriors of the Human Sovereign Realm, then helping Yin Qingsi would be as easy as lifting a finger. In that case, he would not sit by.
With his current power, though, any Human Sovereign Realm warrior could kill him. He would be an idiot to take risks in order to kiss up to a girl…
Soon, he made up his mind and put Yin Qingsi to the back of his head. After taking a detour, he flew toward the west again. He was sure that nobody was chasing him after half a day and found a place to rest.
“My realm is too low. There are far too many Human Sovereign Realm warriors here. Should I try to reach the Noble Lord Realm?”
Lu Li was almost ready. He had more than enough Mystical Materials. His chance of reaching the Noble Lord Realm was high but he was hesitating.
Reaching the Noble Lord Realm wouldn’t bring too much improvement to his abilities but it could make his speed and reaction faster and improve his bodily functions.
Foundations were laid during the Xuan Wu Realm, Spirit Sea Realm and the Soul Pond Realm. Fate Wheel Realm and Eternal Realm were phases where a warrior could change fate. After Noble Lord Realm, everything would be different. There was a huge gap between the Noble Lord Realm and the Fate Wheel Realm and the discrepancy between Fate Wheels and Bead of Life could be vast.
Lu Li’s Fate Wheels were nothing similar to average ones. His didn’t have nine colored glows. Instead, Lu Li’s Fate Wheel had always been glowing in a silverlight. In his Fate Wheel hid a mysterious dragon pattern. Therefore, he had a feeling that if he could have a Bead of Life, his speed would be elevated by a large margin.
He was as fast as a warrior in the middle stage of the Human Sovereign Realm. It was not because he had mastered high level Profound Meaning but because of his Fate Wheel, which had been improved.
In that case…
When he could have a Bead of Life, he could be times faster and he would be much safer.
What was more, with the progress in realm came improvement of his body. By that time, he wouldn’t have to stress himself out when releasing the Rising Dragon Skill. He wouldn’t be so weak that he couldn’t run for his life.
The major concern now was—where should he go to cultivate?
The Prison of Gold was vast. He didn’t have to worry about the Beasts of Primordial Chaos and there weren’t many people. That being said, what if someone happened to pass by while he was cultivation?
It would take him half a month to reach the Noble Lord Realm when everything went smoothly. To stabilize it, he would have to spend another one to two month or even six months in case of any delays.
That was why Lu Li was hesitating. On the other hand, it was more than dangerous in the Prison of Gold. With no development in his abilities, nobody could guarantee that he could arrive at the portal to the Central Imperial Universe safely. But cultivating meant that he might be murdered…
“I will take the risk!”
Lu Li made up his mind after some consideration. He was going to look for a location so he could retreat into cultivation to reach the Noble Lord Realm. He felt insecure that he was too weak. He was unable to move an inch forward. Hence, he had chosen to take the risk.
