Chapter 460: A Tit for a Tat

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

Several days later, Ye Cha came back in with materials and craftsmen for constructing Teleportation Formations.

The family members of those craftsmen were duly arranged as those workers might have to stay in the Deserted World till their last breaths.

God of Meng had already sent someone to the small world of the Deserted World. Of course, he didn't send anyone from the Titan Race. Instead, he sent someone from a race that resembled humans in appearances and he got two Noble Lord Realm warriors to guard the entrance at the small world of Green Dwarfs.

Lu Li spent five days with Bai Qiuxue and built Bai Xiashuang a fortress where the three patriarchs of the Bai Family lived. Some maids were sent in as well.

Lu Li planned to let Little White stay there. The place was safe and spacious enough. There were no powerful Xuan Beasts, which meant Little White could be safe wherever it ran.

Lu Li asked Little White to stay with Bai Xiashuang who liked the idea very much. Small animals like Little White were welcomed among girls. Bai Xiashuang used to be alone and now she had a companion in Little White.

Meng Zhi and the several patriarchs of the Cyan Phoenix Race chose to cultivate in their place to protect Bai Qiuxue and Bai Xiashuang. Additionally, the Xuan Qi in heaven and earth was profound and they had enough Mystical Materials for cultivation.

Lu Li left behind some warning jade talismans. If anything went wrong, the jade talismans could be crushed and he would be present at once.

He also told Ye Cha to build a Teleportation Formation connecting the Heaven Prison City to the island inside the area of demons. Also, a Teleportation Formation should be built at the small world of Green Dwarfs. That way, it would only take him several hours to arrive at the Snow Mountain by Teleportation Formations.

Lu Li left after all was settled. Jiang Qiling was still at the Northern Deserted. What if this daredevil invited herself here?

Lu Li handled everything at the Deserted World to Ye Cha and he left for the Northern Deserted with the Mystical Materials and teleported to the Ling Empress City.

"Wow~"

When Lu Li handed the more than 10 Interspatial Rings to Jiang Qiling, this young lady from the Jiang Family of the great Pavilion of Delicacy yelled. She probed into the rings with her psychic power and exclaimed, "Lu Li, have you gotten some ill gains? The Mystical Materials in the rings are rare and any one-ring of them can be sold at tens of millions of Xuan Crystals. The Mystical Materials in the rings can be compared with the wealth of a sixth-rank Family accumulated over dozens of years."

Jiang Qiling was born in a renowned family where she was educated to know many Mystical Materials. She had thought that Lu Li only stumbled into some lucky fortune. She didn't expect that he had so many rare ones.

Lu Li himself was confused. Sixth-rank families? Du Family was only of the sixth rank. What Du Family accumulated over dozens of years could make their Family Patriarch richer than a king. Those ones were not the rarest ones Lu Li had. There were more batches of Mystical Materials worth dozens of times more than those coming.

Actually, Lu Li didn't know this. Those Mystical Materials were not priceless per se. The point was that…they were rare!

A thing is valued if it is rare. If Heaven Serpent Fruits were rare even at the Central Plains and the yield was only dozens annually, Heaven Serpent Fruits would be priceless as well.

Small worlds had unique weather, environment, dirt and the Mystical Materials nurtured were of special features as well. Many of Mystical Materials grew in small words were hard to be found even at the Central Plains. The prices, of course, would be high.

"This is troublesome."

Jiang Qiling said with a frown, "Average Mystical Materials will be pretty easy to sell. But the ones you have here are rare and the quantities are big. This will cause people to have suspicions. If in the end they find out that I am the one selling, they will have more doubts. After all, I am not the one selling Mystical Materials for the Pavilion of Delicacy. In the end, they will trace back to you…"

Lu Li became nervous. If he could not sell the Mystical Materials, how could he buy the ones needed at the Deserted World? If God of Meng and others could not reach the Human Sovereign Realm, it wouldn't matter even if Lu Li had a mountain of treasures.

"There is no other way!"

Jiang Qiling sighed after some thoughts and said, "Lu Li, I cannot handle those. You have to go to Jiang Wuwo. Talk to him. If he is against it, I will notify the world that I no longer regard him as my father. Don't worry. He won't touch you as long as I am alive."

Lu Li felt a bit embarrassed and replied, "Is this okay? He is your father, after all."

"Why is it not?"

Jiang Qiling laughed a mockery laugh and said, "I will be happy if you can offend him. Also…this deal won't let Pavilion of Delicacy suffer from any losses. The Pavilion of Delicacy can make a big money by selling those Mystical Materials. Jiang Wuwo will agree to do business with you if he is not a moron. He will even hide the information for you. After all, you are involved with the alien races now. Getting the information out is not good for his reputation, which he values the most in his life. He will go all-out to defend you."

"Okay, I will have a try!"

Lu Li had no other choice but to trust her. If he sold all the Mystical Materials on his own, it would only lead to his death.

The Pavilion of Delicacy was not among the six forces that set out to exterminate the Cyan Phoenix Race and the Mammoth Race. When the Titan Race was exiled from the Central Plains, the Pavilion of Delicacy hadn't come into existence yet. There was no feud involved. Maybe Jiang Wuwo wouldn't mind.

Lu Li was a resolute man of actions. He said at once, "Then I will meet your father. Let's go."

Jiang Qiling looked at him and said, "Now? I want to hang out here for a couple more days. It will be like being back in a cage when I go back to the Pavilion of Delicacy. I won't be able to come out for some time."

"Ha, ha!"

Lu Li answered with a smile, "You are about to reach the Noble Lord Realm. Once that happens, you will be regarded as a gift of the Pavilion of Delicacy. Who will be able to stop you?"

Jiang Qiling titled her head and answered after some thoughts, "Right. Since you are in a hurry, let's go. I should work hard to reach the Noble Lord Realm."

They walked out with Jiang Yi following them. They went into the Teleportation Formation to go to the Clouds City.

After half a day, they arrived. Instead of leaving right away, Jiang Qiling said to a team leader from the Palace of Peaceful Heaven, "Send a word to your Family Patriarch. Tell him to expand the Teleportation Formations here and the one at the Northern Deserted. Build a super one. Ask Jiang Wuwo to cover your costs."

The ones here now were normal ones. Teleportations would take a long time, which made Jiang Qiling less patient.

That team later looked at her with begging eyes. Asking Jiang Wuwo to cover the costs? The master of the Palace of Peaceful Heaven wouldn't dare to do that in 100 years.

Jiang Qiling stared at the team leader who didn't respond, "What? No?"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

The team leader was scared. Who dared to offend this daredevil? She might tear the Palace of Peaceful Heaven in a fit of rage.

"Let's go!"

With that said, Jiang Qiling took Lu Li's hands and walked toward another Teleportation Formation like a couple. Lu Li was a bit embarrassed but he couldn't oppose her now. So, he went with her bashfully.

Those from the Hall of Peaceful Heavens were stunned. They thought Jiang Qiling had the hots for Lu Li but the feelings weren't mutual?

The Teleportation Formation glowed. Jiang Qiling grabbed Lu Li's hands and leaned against him like a timid and lovable little woman. People along the way were astonished. Young Lady of the Jiang Family was holding hands with a man? Could he be her future husband?

By the time they arrived at the City of Delicacy, they have created a bigger commotion. Words spread across the city. Jiang Qiling showed up with a young man publicly. People were talking that Lu Li was here to meet future father-in-law.

"Bang!"

Jiang Wuwo vent his anger by smashing a teacup when Jiang Qiling walked into a hall while holding Lu Li's hands. Jiang Wuwo said furiously, "Jiang Qiling, you are a lady of the Jiang Family. Can you pay attention to your image? What are you doing holding hands with and hugging a young man in public? Where have you put the authority of the Jiang Family?"

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Jiang Qiling was enraged as well when Jiang Wuwo played rough. She smashed three teacups, glared at Jiang Wuwo and said, "You are the Family Patriarch of the Jiang Family and the master of the Pavilion of Delicacy. Can you pay attention to your image? This is my friend. Who are you trying to intimidate? Believe me, I will tear down the hall here."
