Chapter 556: Drifting Cloud Hall
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
"Clouds Plains? Drifting Cloud Hall?"
Lu Li trembled. He almost burst into tears of excitement. Finally, a piece of good news came after such a long time.
Lu Li asked at once, "Tell me the details. Tell me everything you learned."
Third Patriarch dared not to keep Lu Li guessing. He explained to Lu Li everything he found out.
After Third Patriarch arrived at the Serenity Plains through the passage at the Deserted World, he took some disguise and sneaked his way into a big city. He bought many people off to inquire some information.
Third Patriarch had collected information of almost all the powerful warriors at the Serenity Plains. Of the entire Serenity Plains, only four powerful warriors mastered Profound Meanings of the sixth rank or above and only one of them learned one of the seventh rank which was related to the properties of earth. Third Patriarch had made sure of this by comparing the information acquired from several people. He was certain there was no powerful warrior at the Serenity Plains that understood Holy Light Profound Meaning.
When he was about to return, he ran into a trade caravan that had come back from the Clouds Plains. Third Patriarch learned something unexpectedly.
Flames of war was raging across the length and breadth of the Clouds Plains. The third, fourth and fifth ranking forces were launching an attack at the second biggest power, the Drifting Cloud Hall.
Since the largest force there, the Palace of Sun, didn't interfere, the Drifting Cloud Hall was having a miserable time. All their powerful warriors had poured out. Their Great Patriarch, a warrior that had retired from society for 100 years, came out and injured a Human Sovereign Realm enemy in one move. It was said that the Great Patriarch had used Holy Light Profound Meaning…
Since the Clouds Plains was in heated war, the trade caravan returned to the Serenity Plains right away without lingering on. They didn't know much. Given that Third Patriarch was not far away from the passage, he didn't go to the Clouds Plains rashly. Instead, he came back to report.
"Clouds Plains!"
Lu Li took out a map and inspected closely. The Clouds Plains was to the west of the Central Plains, neighboring to the Serenity Plains with a continental sea in between. Clouds Plains and the Serenity Plains were similar in sizes. Both places should have Human Sovereign Realm warriors.
Ming Yu had sent someone to the Clouds Plains but it would be some time before they could return. What was more, the ones sent by Ming Yu were just average warriors. They might be less dedicated.
After some thoughts, Lu Li said, "Third Patriarch, please go to the Serenity Plains again and then to the Clouds Plains. Find it out at all costs. If it is possible, take down a warrior from the Drifting Cloud Hall and see if you can find out whether my sister is at the Drifting Cloud Hall. Go to Madam Yan for 100 million Xuan Crystals. Spend it all if you want. I only want result. Don't take a leap in the dark if the situation is unclear. Come back and report to me right away in that case. Also, find out what is going on at the Clouds Plains."
"Don't worry Saint Lord. I will get to the bottom this time."
Third Patriarch understood how important Lu Ling was to Lu Li. He nodded and left at once. God of Meng had come here to ask Lu Li if the passage to the Serenity Plains should be destroyed but he knew the answer now. God of Meng understood that Lu Li was too anxious to be dining, sleeping or cultivating. He left, not wishing to disturb Lu Li.
"Sister, please be at the Drifting Cloud Hall!"
Lu Li prayed to himself. If he was sure that Lu Ling was at the Drifting Cloud Hall, he would take powerful warriors at the Northern Desert and take her back. He would not shrink if the Drifting Cloud Hall had Human Sovereign Realm warriors.
"I need to have a rest now."
Lu Li's mind was disturbed by the thought of Lu Ling. He had been cultivating for over two months now without having any good sleep. He was tired. He went to the lake to take a bath, shaved himself, changed into a clean cloths and went to the Snow Mountain of Dragons.
Bai Xiashuang was still cultivating to reach the Eternal Realm. The Ding of Barbarian God was still outside the castle. Little White had been using thunderbolts to refine its body. Lu Li didn't disturb Little White after observing for a bit. He went into the ice room to have a talk with Bai Qiuxue.
Then he teleported to the Northern Desert. He had been informed that Lu Feixue had come out from cultivation. Now that he had decided to take some rest, he would spend some time with her.
Back at the Ling Empress City, Lu Li appeared in the Teleportation Formation. His appearance made some civilians and warriors feel secure somehow as if as long as the young emperor was here, nothing wrong would ever happen at the Northern Desert.
People would suffer whether the country was in prosperity or destruction.
With the Northern Desert being unified, there were no more disputes. For the past one or two years, people at the Northern Desert had been living quite comfortably. They were used to the peaceful life and all loathed the endless conflicts and battles.
Lu Li went to Lu Feixue and spent an afternoon with her. He told her something casual about the small battlefield but he spoke only of the good news. He said nothing about Ji Mengtian and the gang. Lu Feixue was about to cultivate to the latter stage of the Noble Lord Realm now, so he wouldn't want her to worry.
Lu Li also told her about having clues about Lu Ling at the Cloud Plains. Lu Feixue was delighted and said that if it was confirmed, she must know of that.
After having dinner with Lu Feixue, Lu Li went to Madam Yan to hear her report of recent events. He was relieved to some extent after learning that quite an amount of Mystical Materials were bought.
If the rest Xuan Crystals could all be spent, then the purchased Mystical Materials plus the ones grown at the Northern Desert could sustain for four or five years. Things after that time should be dealt then.
"Thank you so much. I have dumped everything on you and you hardly have any time to cultivate." Lu Li said apologetically, seeing that Madam Yan was still at the peak of the Eternal Realm.
"I am most willing to die of exhaustion to hear these words from you." Madam Yan replied with a flirting glace, half enticing, half shy. It was a stunning view.
It had been more than two years since Lu Li met Madam Yan the first time. Her well-developed body was wrapped tight in a black silk dress, which accentuated her smoking body. She was a like a peach that had matured.
"Ha, ha."
Lu Li smiled lightly and diverted his looks, afraid to make eye contact with Madam Yan. He had been intimate with two girls already but on both occasions, he was on the receiving end and clouded in his mind. Hence, he was still shy like a virgin.
"Alas…"
Madam Yan sighed. She walked to behind Lu Li's chair, rubbed his shoulder with her delicate hands and said, "It's nothing that we are tired. You, Young Master, is the one exhausted. I know you don't want to talk about it, but I can sense that it is something troublesome, is it not? Young Master, you are shouldering all the burdens. You work harder than we do."
Admittedly, Madam Yan was a one-of-a-kind woman. She knew how to cater to the needs of a man. She understood how to pick up a cue from people's words and expressions. She really did speak Lu Li's mind.
Lu Li's frown loosened up a bit. He said after a pause, "Don't worry. The world is not ending. Even if it was, I am here to make it right for you."
"It is the Bai Family that is not good enough."
Madam Yan was still rubbing his shoulders. But she moved closer and spoke into his ears, "Zi Huanyu and Yu Huashen have let us down as well. They have used so many Mystical Materials but neither of them has reached the Human Sovereign Realm. Otherwise, they could have helped you with some work. I am not talented enough and I cannot make a powerful warrior. I can only be a maid and serve you well."
Madam Yan's tones became gentler and gentler. She reached one hand to Lu Li's chest secretly, licked his ear with her tongue and then slid her tongue down his neck while she went on in a pretty voice, "Young Master, don't overthink. Let me serve you."
Lu Li trembled. Madam Yan knew too well how to flirt and seduce a guy. His breaths shortened. She turned around, sat in his lap and put her arms around his neck. Her face was full of sexual lust, like a tempting vixen.
"Grunt, grunt~"
Lu Li gulped out of instinct. His Adam's apple moved up and down and he had a reaction between his legs. He was so tense that he couldn't move.
"Young Master, you don't have to do anything. Leave everything to me. I will make you so happy…"
Madam Yan's sweet talk sounded around his ear. Her soft lips kissed his neck. She even grabbed Lu Li's hands and pushed them toward her raised chests, like a horny widow…
