Chapter 856: Hope and Fear

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

City of Mystic Armor, Central Plains!

The Lu Family had returned to a peaceful state. Lu Zhengyang’s enjoyed a high prestige in the family, higher than Lu Zhengtan’s. What was more, Lu Zhengyang was an able fighter. Once, he ranked number eight on the Central Plains Warlord List. Lu Li and Lu Renhuang were influential as well. Nobody in the family was in the defiant mood anymore.

Almost all the enemy families had sent warriors into the Demon-slaying Battleground. The alliance with the Great Buddhist Temple, Tumulus of Universe and the Pavilion of Delicacy stabilized the Lu Family further.

Therefore, Lu Zhengyang had been enjoying comfortable days. The only thing worried him was the situation in the Demon-slaying Battleground. As all the openings to the Demon-slaying Battleground had been closed off, the Great Land could receive no information.

In a castle at the Mystic Armor Mountain, came in Lu Zhengyang. He had been cultivating for a couple of days. At the Hall of Patriarchs, he asked, “Uncle Five, the entrance to the Demon-slaying Battleground is still closed?”

“Yes!” Great Grandfather Five said, “The opening is closed all the time. We have heard nothing yet.”

Lu Zhengyang frowned. The entrances had been closed for a long time. The last piece of news they received was that the Heaven Blood City, Earth Blood City, and Monster Blood City had fallen. In order to prevent the four alien races from invading the Great Land, the Demon-slaying Hall had decided to close all the entrances…

“I hope everything is okay.”

Lu Zhengyang murmured. There was nothing for them to do with the entrances sealed, other than waiting for more information.

“Whoosh~”

An hour later, a deacon came in. He reported with joy, “Family Patriarch, Great Patriarch, the entrances are opened. We have someone coming back to the family. Young Master Ye Luo is on his way back as well. They will be arriving at the City of Mystic Armor, in the time for one incense stick to burn.”

“Excellent!”

Lu Zhengyang smiled, at last. Ye Luo coming back showed that the difficulties must have passed. The situation might have turned around.

“Let’s go!”

Lu Zhengyang could no longer wait. With Great Grandfather Five and some other patriarchs and deacons, he went to the city gate to greet those coming back in person.

“Whoosh, whoosh~”

Many people in the City of Mystic Armor were notified. They followed Lu Zhengyang to the city gate. Lu Hongyu had been living in the city those days. Learning that Ye Luo was coming, she went with the crowd.

“Whoosh–”

From the north came a group of people. Over half of the Lu Family warriors that had gone to the battlefield had come back. Only some were missing. They might have lost their lives in the battle.

“Ye Luo!”

Lu Hongyu saw Ye Luo from a distance. She screamed in joy. Tears rolled down her cheeks. She had been having difficulties sleeping, worrying that Ye Luo might die in battle.

A smile blossomed on Ye Luo’s face as he saw Lu Hongyu. Everyone sped up and soon arrived at the city gate. A patriarch dropped to his knee and shouted, “Greetings, Family Patriarch, Great Patriarch, and Patriarch Eight.”

“Grandfather Lu, Great Grandfather Five, Grandpa.”

Ye Luo bowed. Lu Hongyu could no longer keep her feelings at bay. She threw herself into his arms.

“Please rise!”

Lu Zhengyang waved his hand. Looking at the patriarch, he asked, “How is it in the Demon-slaying Battleground? Where are Lu Renhuang and Li-er?”

The patriarch stated with delight, “The crisis is over. Young Master Li and future family patriarch are hunting down the four alien races. Patriarch Lei told us to come back to tell you not to worry.”

“Thank god, great!”

Lu Zhengyang and Great Grandfather Five were both relieved. Everything would be fine as long as Lu Renhuang and Lu Li were okay.

Ye Luo patted Lu Hongyu’s back to comfort her. Then, he bowed to Lu Zhengyang and said, “Congratulations, Grandfather Lu. From today on, the Lu Family will become the biggest family of the Great Land?”

“What?”

Lu Zhengyang was taken by surprise. A glow of joy appeared in Great Grandfather Five’s eyes. The other patriarchs and deacons even felt scared. To be regarded as the biggest family was not a matter to be joked about.

That patriarch could not wipe off that smile on his face as he explained, “Young Master killed Ji Zhantian and has become the Grand Master of the Demon-slaying Hall.”

“What?”

Everyone looked at each other in utter astonishment. Lu Li could kill Ji Zhantian and now he was the Grand Master?

Ye Luo added with a touch of envy, “Not only did Lu Li kill Ji Zhantian, but he has also defeated the Asmodian Lord. He led us and crushed the four alien races. He is our hero-warrior and he is well-deserved.”

“Excellent!”

Lu Zhengyang finally accepted the truth. The smile was bright on his face. He could hardly restrain his happiness. The Grand Master of Demon-slaying Hall, a protector of the humankind, was his grandson, Lu Zhengyang’s grandson.

Lu Li had become the most powerful warrior of the human race. Ji Zhantian was deceased. Who else could threaten Lu Li? Who else could stop the Lu Family from developing? In less than 10 years, Lu Family would become a new Samsara Palace. Even complete unification wouldn’t be a stretch.

“Lu Li is that outstanding?”

Lu Hongyu was still struggling to accept. She remembered what it was like when Lu Li first came back to the Lu Family. He was a country bumpkin back then, stubborn and such a madcap…

She could still recall that Lu Li created a mess at the Hall of Patriarchs. He killed a patriarch in the city and then was exiled to the Demon Island by Lu Zhengtan. Great Grandfather Five save him and Lu Li went back to the Northern Desert by himself.

Back then, Lu Hongyu thought Lu Li would not be an accomplished man for this lifetime and that he could only spend his mediocre days in the Northern Desert, sitting around and waiting to die.

It had been only a couple of years. Not only had Lu Li become stronger, but he had also become a hero of the human race. He was now the honorable Grand Master of the Demon-slaying Hall. He brought glory to the Lu Family…

Life was full of ups and downs.

“But…”

Lu Hongyu’s thoughts were cut off by that patriarch who continued in grief, “This time, we have suffered a great casualty. Great Grandfather Three… passed away, unfortunately. Many more of the Lu Family died. Also, Patriarch Jiang Tianshun was poisoned. He is frozen now. Family Patriarch, please forward the news to the Jiang Family.”

“Uncle Three!”

Lu Zhengyang and Great Grandfather Five’s smiles froze. Great Grandfather Three was Great Grandfather Five’s brother, one of the few senior warriors of the Lu Family. Nobody expected him to die so quickly.

“Where are his remains?”

Lu Zhengyang choked down his grief and asked. The patriarch shook his head as he replied, “Great Grandfather Three was killed by the Asmodian Lord himself. His remains were… torn apart. The Demon-slaying Hall managed to bury him in the Hall of Martyrs.”

“Okay. Uncle Three died to protect the human race for the greater good. It is a worthy death. Pass along my order. Build a cenotaph for Uncle Three and all the deceased. Lu Family will have to pay respect to them from now on, for generations to come.”

Lu Zhengyang said after a moment of silence. Then, he told Patriarch Eight, “Go and tell the Jiang Family. Let them be prepared.”

Patriarch Eight went with the patriarch that came to report the news. They took super Teleportation Formations to the Pavilion of Delicacy. When the Jiang Family received the news, the entire Pavilion of Delicacy was shocked.

The situation signaled both hope and fear… to the Pavilion of Delicacy!

If Lu Li could not find a fix for the Voodoo Poison, Jiang Wuwo would pass away. The Jiang Family would lose a great support.

On the other hand, Lu Li now was the Grand Master of Demon-slaying Hall, a hero of the humankind. Jiang Family had another support, who was even powerful than Jiang Tianshun.

Jiang Wuwo sat on the Island of Delicacy for half a day. Eventually, he was able to respond, “My daughter is shrewder than I am. The man she loves is a hero. Alas… Lu Li is in power. Will he unify the world? Where will the Pavilion of Delicacy go then?”
