Chapter 712: Two Possibilities

Translator: Panda_Penn  Editor: Chrissy

The moonlight was bright and clear as the water tonight. Against the background, Leng Wuxin appeared to be particularly beautiful as if she was a fairy from a palace on the moon. Her expression seemed to be full of sorrow, however. People would feel their hearts ache for her when she frowned.

But Lu Li didn’t feel sorry for her nor found her ravishingly pretty. Instead, he regarded her as a female skeleton standing under the moonlight. It was freaky, and he resented her for it.

For her, Lu Li was nothing more than a piece of tool, a puppet that could help her accomplish her goal. She controlled the puppet and pushed it forward whether it was able to do its job or not. She didn’t care if it was a cliff ahead.

It was not possible for Lu Li to kill Leng Wushang in one year. But this didn’t matter to Leng Wuxin. If Lu Li couldn’t do it, then he could just drop dead. After all, he would be of no use to Leng Wuxin…

Lu Li felt sad and angered. Even so, he didn’t dare to say anything. What words could help him now? This sweet girl was really a devil. She was coldblooded and cruel, and she didn’t give a damn about Lu Li’s life….

“Sh*t. If you push me too hard, I will make you perish with me!”

Lu Li was enraged and thought to himself. If she went too far, he would go to Leng Wushang and tell him about the conspiracy against him so Leng Wuxin would have to face the end of her life as well.

“Let’s go back. It has been some time now. Someone might ask questions.”

Lu Li’s thoughts were not Leng Wuxin’s concern. She stood up and walked to the chariot. She looked nice from the back, and her round bottoms could give men many things to think about.

That being said, Lu Li was in no mood to appreciate her look. He caught up with her and acted as if he was buttering her up. He moved closer and asked, “What is this Forbidden Ground of Elder God? Do you have any information about it?”

“You will know when you are there.”

Leng Wuxin whispered to him, “We always say that the Purgatory of Primordial Chaos is where you can go up to heaven. Then, the Forbidden Ground of Elder God will be where you can evolve into a god. Of course… that is a place far more terrifying than the Purgatory of Primordial Chaos and messier as well. But you don’t have to worry too much because you will go with us.”

After that, Leng Wuxin said nothing more. Lu Li had to go with her to the chariot. They flew back to the Leng Family, and as soon as the two chariots entered the yard, they went on separate ways.

Lu Li went back to the building he was staying at in the Leng Family. He thought late into the night but found his choices were little. The only way was for him to follow Leng Wuxin’s instructions.

For the next few days, Lu Li behaved as if Leng Wuxin had occupied his mind. He would go to her every day when opportunities presented itself. She was a very good actor. In the beginning, she showed Lu Li around some scenic spots in the City of Leng. But after a few days, she began to turn down Lu Li’s request for meeting.

She even went to Leng Tianhen and complained in anger, stating that she grew tired of hanging out with Lu Li. In fact, she even so with clear disdain. Leng Tianhen actually comforted Leng Wuxin. He told her that it meant Lu Li had fallen head over heels for her, and this was the perfect chance for her to obtain some information.

Leng Wuxin was then forced to hang out with Lu Li who acted as if he had been obsessed with her. He would cling to her every day. Even the servants of the Leng Family could tell that Lu Li’s mind was full of Leng Wuxin. It was understandable that a young man would find her attractive. After all, Leng Wuxin was the most favored young lady in the Leng Family.

After eight days!

Leng Wuxin said that she was done with it. She told Leng Wuhen about her intention to go to the Forbidden Ground of Elder God as a way to get rid of Lu Li. Leng Tianhen had noticed that no information they got from Lu Li was useful. What was more, he wouldn’t want Lu Li to marry such an outstanding young lady of the Leng Family, especially when Lu Li’s realm was so low. Therefore, Leng Wuhen granted Leng Wuxin’s wish.

It was not verified that Lu Li was the apprentice of the Blood Emperor yet. If the Blood Emperor were to put out a public notice, then Lu Li marrying a young lady of the Leng Family could easily be arranged.

Of course, this young lady wouldn’t be Leng Wuxin. Lu Li’s realm was too low for Leng Family to make this sacrifice.

For the next few days, Lu Li was rejected by Leng Wuxin by all kinds of excuses. He was getting agitated and had to turn to Leng Wumi and the others for help. Finally, he was “informed” that Leng Wuxin was going to the Forbidden Ground of Elder God, and she would come back in a year.

Lu Li went back, his heart broken. He cultivated two days in his room. Then, per his discussion with Leng Wuxin, Lu Li went to Leng Wushang and insisted on going to the Forbidden Ground of Elder God.

Naturally, Leng Wushang wouldn’t let Lu Li go to such a precious land. After all, Lu Li’s identity hadn’t been confirmed yet. Even if it had, Lu Li, an outsider, still couldn’t go.

Lu Li made up his mind. He implied something that made Leng Wushang very excited. Lu Li said if he could win Leng Wuxin over, he could consider about educating the Leng Family about the Rising Dragon Skill.

Leng Wushang acted as if he didn’t care. He only said that he would first ask the family, and then sent Lu Li back for further notice.

Then, Leng Wushang went to Leng Tianhen at once. Without any hesitation, Leng Tianhen granted Lu Li’s request of entering the Forbidden Ground of Elder God!

What was more…

Leng Tianhen called over Leng Wuxin right away and told her to think of a way to get the Rising Dragon Skill from Lu Li. As for the way, she should be the one to figure it out. What he was implying was that—she could climb to Lu Li’s bed, and it would still be worthwhile.

Even though Leng Wuxin had no hope for the Leng Family, she still shivered from head to toe after hearing Leng Tianhen’s words.

Females were not regarded as decent humans in big families. A girl could be born as a genius and work hard and reach a high realm, but she would still only be a piece of pricy merchandise. She would be sacrificed for family interest at any time.

Leng Wuxin said nothing and left. Leng Tianhen wasn’t angry. He said to Leng Wushang with a smile, “Tell Wumi to go as well. Let Wumi talk some sense into Wuxin. We must get the Rising Dragon Skill. If you can get it in the Forbidden Ground of Elder God and we can confirm that it is a divine skill, you will be made the official crown prince after you come back.”

“Okay. I will try my best to make it happen!”

Steady as Leng Wushang was, he was still a young man at 16 years of age. He could not hide the joy on his face. After he became the crown prince, he would be Leng Tianhen’s successor should nothing go wrong, and he would enjoy a lifetime of glory.

“But…”

Leng Wushang thought of something and asked, “If the Rising Dragon Skill is really developed by the Blood Emperor and he learns that we stole it, won’t he fly into rage…”

Leng Tianhen waved his hand and said, “That is something we will talk about after we get it. We will not cross the line as long as we don’t take it by force. The Blood Emperor is only one person, and we are not afraid of him. Well… remember you cannot force it. Don’t give any excuses to the old freaky guys at the Purgatory of Primordial Chaos. We will really be in trouble when they attack us in a group.”

“I understand!”

Leng Wushang nodded. He asked several more questions and then left to make arrangements. He didn’t notify Lu Li right away that he was allowed to go to the Forbidden Ground of Elder God. Instead, Leng Wushang told Lu Li after a day.

Everything was settled.

A few days later, Leng Wushang, Leng Wuxin, Leng Wumi, and another talented young master of the Leng Family, Leng Buji, would go to the Forbidden Ground of Elder God. Two Earth Immortal Realm warriors of the Leng Family joined them.

Lu Li didn’t go out anymore. He cultivated in his yard. From today on, he only had one year left. If he could not find a way to get rid of the venom in the Forbidden Ground of Elder God, he would die there.

Either he murdered Leng Wushang in the Forbidden Ground of Elder God, or he obtained the antidote from Leng Wuxin. Those were the only two possibilities for Lu Li.
