Chapter 775: Futile

The Wicked Bead was thrown to the side. The giant hand then disappeared into the crack in space quickly.

The hand had vanished suddenly as it had appeared. Everything quieted down.

However, neither Lu Li nor the five Semi-God Realm warriors dared to make a move. The hand must have belonged to someone formidable. If he could control the Wicked Bead, it would not be difficult for him to slash the Qi and Feng Family progenitors.

Lu Li let the Wicked Bead hover in midair. He didn’t have the courage to resume the attack on the blessed land anymore. He waited quietly. The person must have a message for him now that he had stopped Lu Li from ruining the blessed land.

He was right!

After a moment, he heard a hoarse voice coming from above. The words were delivered void of feelings, as if a real god was scolding some puny human beings, “Earthly paradises are presents from the heaven. Their births are not easy, and it is a shame to destroy the lands.”

Having recognized the voice, the five Semi-God Realm warriors were surprised. They looked at each other with bitter feelings. “Greetings, my lord,” said the five while bowing in midair.

“Lord?”

Lu Li frowned. It was strange that the five would address this person like this. They called him lord. The five must not be competent matches for the man. Another underlying meaning was that… they knew him!

The Crippled Zen Master!

It was the obvious answer. In the Wicked Bead, Lu Li bowed and saluted. “Nice to meet you, forefather,” said Lu Li.

Lu Li had addressed the person as forefather like Yin Qingsi did. He was relieved secretly. The Crippled Zen Master would not put Lu Li in a difficult position for the sake of Yin Qingsi. He would not take away Lu Li’s Wicked Bead. If it had been his intention, he would have done so in the Zen Valley.

It was the Crippled Zen Master that delivered the message. Qi Family and Feng Family progenitors once paid him a visit. Crippled Zen Master went on, “Lu Li, enough is enough. Stop right here. I have been living in the Central Imperial Universe for three thousand years, and I have become attached.”

Lu Li bowed again and said, “Of course.”

The five Semi-God Realm warriors were more anguished. As they expected, they heard Crippled Zen Master’s voice again, “Feng Wanhu, Qi Donghai!”

The Feng and Qi Family progenitors bowed and replied, “My lord!”

“Qingsi once told you that the possession of valuables is decided by fate.”

Hearing Crippled Zen Master saying this in a cold voice, the two felt they were deprived of all hopes, “I was the one that told her that possession of valuables is decided by fate. You have not recognized the underlying meaning of it all—Emperor Heng had passed this bead on to Lu Li. You might be able to win it over, but it will be pointless. Would Emperor Heng let you take control of it? Would Emperor Heng allow for his treasure to be the subject of snatching? For a practically useless bead, the Central Imperial Universe has descended into chaos. Is it worth it?”

“We cannot control it?”

The five Semi-God Realm warriors were pale from the words. The Crippled Zen Master was not a man that would lie. If he merely wished to help Lu Li out, he could just say the word and nobody would do otherwise.

In other words, all their efforts for this entire time was futile. Many people had lost their lives, and the City of Feng had fallen into ashes for nothing.

“Alas~”

The Feng Family progenitor’s mouth twitched. He heaved a sigh. Over the instant, he seemed to be a hundred years older. He bowed to the waist and said, “Lord, we know what we should do now.”

“That is it, then.”

After saying this, the Crippled Zen Master never spoke again. The five Semi-God Realm warriors acted as if they had lost their souls. They stood in midair, too frustrated to shed a tear, feeling dejected.

Lu Li was finally able to relax. On the surface, the Crippled Zen Master was here to stop him from ruining the blessed land and made an announcement. As a matter of fact, the Cripple Zen Master had done Lu Li a favor.

With the Crippled Zen Master’s message, the Feng and Qi Family progenitors would not go after Lu Li anymore. They had to activate the Teleportation Formation and let Lu Li leave the Central Imperial Universe.

Not long afterward, the Feng Family progenitor turned to the Wicked Bead, waving his hand, “Lu Li, off you go now! The Central Imperial Universe will not forget this hatred between us. In the future, we will make sure that you pay.”

Lu Li smiled. He didn’t try to win the argument. Feng Family progenitor had lost his mind in anger. Him speaking so was an idiotic act.

In the future, if Lu Li would gain full control of the Wicked Bead, his competence would grow by a large margin. By then, when he invaded the Central Imperial Universe, the Feng Family would be doomed for sure.

Lu Li flew the Wicked Bead toward the Zen Mountain without leaving a word behind. The City of Chaos was in this direction as well. He was about to leave the Central Imperial Universe. He must bid farewell to Yin Qingsi and express his gratitude to the Crippled Zen Master.

“Whoosh~”

The Wicked Bead pierced through the sky and vanished into the horizon. Five Semi-God Realm warriors closed their eyes, standing in midair. They were anguished. The Qi Family progenitor felt slightly better than his Feng Family counterpart because the Feng Family had suffered a grave setback this time.

“Home, I am finally going home!”

As Lu Li left the area, the feelings within surged like roaring rivers. He was not able to calm himself down.

It had been more than five years since he left the Heaven Reverse Universe. It had been too long since he was parted from his loved ones and his friends. He wished he could grow a pair of wings so he could fly back to the Heaven Reverse Universe at once.

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~”

Several hours later, a man suddenly flew up from a city Lu Li was going to pass by. It was Brother Three of the Feng Family. Lu Li frowned at his appearance but was not worried. The Feng Family progenitor was not here. It didn’t seem like they were going to back off from the deal.

“Lu Li!”

Brother Three of the Feng Family followed the Wicked Bead around for thirty miles. When they reached a mountain with nobody around, he shouted, “We can let you leave the Central Imperial Universe, but you must release our people. You captured four of our Earth Immortal Realm warriors.”

Lu Li took a look at the four Earth Immortal Realm warriors and stated, “I will do that later. I promise you that I will not kill them. If nothing goes wrong, I will set them free in 10 years.”

“That is not acceptable!”

Brother Three of the Feng Family yelled, “You must let them go now or we will not allow you to leave.”

“Shout again and see what happens.”

Lu Li lost his temper. “Yell to me again and I will kill those four. Ask yourself if I have the guts to do so,” said Lu Li with a grin.

“You…”

Brother Three’s face twisted in anger, like a lion being provoked. That being said, he did believe that Lu Li would do such a thing. He thought of Lu Li as a crazy person that would do anything when cornered.

“Ten years?” Brother Three of Feng Family snorted, “I will believe you if you can swear in the name of Heaven Reverse!”

“Alright!”

Lu Li paused a moment. Then, he swore in the name of Emperor Heaven Reverse and promised that he would set the four free in 10 years. Of course, he did leave some leeway. He merely mentioned that he himself would not murder the four, but if somebody else did so, he would not to be blamed.

Brother Three of the Feng Family left in anger. He told Lu Li to go to the City of Chaos and leave on his own. Lu Li resumed his journey to the Zen Mountain.

He had let the four stay with him for a reason. He wanted to bring them to the Heaven Reverse Universe.

He wanted to bring all 13 Earth Immortal Realm warriors to the Heaven Reverse Universe.

It was true that Earth Immortal Realm warriors could not go below the Prison of Gold, but Lu Li had a Relic. He hoped to give it a try and see if he could put the 13 in the Wicked Bead and bring them to the Inferno. If that could be done, he could let the 13 out after he went back to the Deserted World.

The 13 Earth Immortal Realm warriors constituted a formidable force. He might not be able to win over the entire Central Plains, but at least he could protect himself.

In three years, the four forces would start their invasion. Lu Li had to make due preparations. It was his aspiration that his loved ones, friends, and family could be protected from any further harm.
