Chapter 346: The Mystic Armor City

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

Three days later, Ming Yu was recovered and Yu Huashen got better as well after he took some elixirs. But it would take some time before Yu Huashen could fully recover since his vitality was sapped. That being said, his fighting abilities were not impacted.

Mo Ye was with Lu Li all those days. He hosted a banquet to welcome Lu Li and entertained Han Wuxin and the others as well.

Seeing that Ming Yu and Yu Huashen were doing better, Lu Li decided to set off on their journey

Lu Li had told Ming Yu and Yu Huashen repeatedly that they should not speak of Lu Renhuang or the fact that they had come from the Northern Desert. Lu Li would do the talking while Yu Huashen and Ming Yu could not talk about anything.

Ming Yu was born to be a detached person and he was not fond of talking at all. Yu Huashen was Lu Li’s soul slave so he would follow Lu Li’s orders.

Lu Li didn’t plan to bring Han Wuxin and the other two patriarchs of the Han Family to the Lu Family. After all, the three would have to spend more Xuan Crystals to teleport there.

Lu Li’s safety was guaranteed by Mo Ye’s protection. There was no need for Han Wuxin to go together. Lu Li borrowed 20 billion Xuan Crystals from Mo Ye and repaid Han Wuxin with interest. After all, it would cost the three Han Family people quite a number of Xuan Crystals to come and go.

Mo Ye was very generous. He immediately sent people to get Lu Li the 20 billion Xuan Crystals. Lu Li gave them to Han Wuxin but didn’t say much except that he would remember Han Wuxin’s kindness.

Han Wuxin was a clever man. He wouldn’t say anything even if Lu Li didn’t pay him back, let alone Lu Li gave him 20 billion. The identity of being a disciple of the Lu Family was very valuable. Lu Li was a person that valued friendship. Also, he would rise up sooner or later as long as he was still alive.

The Teleportation Formations were still under repair. Mo Ye took out an Iron-armored Ship and flew them to a nearby county and the teleported to a Prefectural City via where they arrived at the Aries City.

Mo Ye didn’t teleport again. He brought Lu Li off the ship and said that he wanted to give Lu Li a warm welcome. Mo Ye was so hospitable that Lu Li could not refuse and came off the ship with Yu Huashen and Ming Yu.

At first, Mo Ye wanted to invite all the Family Patriarchs of fourth and fifth Families nearby but Lu Li turned him down. He was not fond of this kind of parities or noisy situations. It was just hard for him to refuse Mo Ye’s generosity or he wouldn’t have stayed at the Aries City.

The next day, after they were all fed and rested, they started their journey.

Lu Li bid farewell to Han Wuxin and the other two patriarchs of the Han Family who returned to the Mystic Fire Region. But they didn’t take Teleportation Formations. They took merchant ships. It would cost more time but it would save them some Xuan Crystals.

…

Lu Li was teleported directly to the Blue Lion City, where the Palace of Blue Lion was at. It was one of the three seventh-rank force under the control of the Lu Family.

The Blue Lion City was large. Lu Li thought that he could not see the end of the plaza. Everywhere he could see, there were fortresses, endless fortresses.

Mo Ye asked Lu Li if he wanted to go to the Palace of Blue Lions.

If Lu Li were to make his identity public, maybe the Master of Palace of Blue Lions would come out to meet him. After all, Lu Renhuang was very prestigious.

Lu Li chose not to. He hadn’t come back to the Lu Family yet nor had he returned to his own kins. To brag about using the name of the disciple of the Lu Family would leave a bad impression.

All Lu Li needed was a person to escort him back to the Lu Family first. Nothing else mattered.

There was a Teleportation Formation from the Blue Lion City to the Mystic Armor City. Given that the Lu Family was sealed off, the Teleportation Formations were closed. Therefore, they must take other and more Teleportation Formations instead of going there directly.

They were in the territory of the Lu Family but there was still some distance to the Mystic Armor Region. Lu Li was getting lightheaded again as he had been teleporting for a long time. They stopped after they arrived at a Region City after dark.

This Region City was controlled by a sixth-rank Family. Mo Ye didn’t take Lu Li to visit. Rather, he took Lu Li to a tavern to rest for the night.

The next day, they went on teleporting. By the afternoon of the their day, Mo Ye stopped and let Lu Li rest for the time for one incense stick to burn. Then Mo Ye said, "Young Master, we are now at the Mystic Armor Region. We cannot be teleported from this point on. We need to take the Iron-armored Ship to the Mystic Armor City. Do you want to rest or go now?"

It was in the afternoon. In two hours at most, it would be after dark. Lu Li thought that they could afford to wait another night so he asked Mo Ye to find a place to spend the night.

Lu Li was exhausted from the teleportation and he barely ate anything at dinner. But he could not fall asleep.

He tossed about on bed, excited, nervous and worried.

He was a stranger to the Lu Family. It was his own family, and there were his relatives, his kin and his grandpa. But he felt distant to those people and strange to them.

"Grandpa?"

Thinking of his grandpa, Lu Li got up and went to Mo Ye.

Mo Ye was sitting with his legs crossed in another room. Seeing Lu Li come over, Mo Ye poured him a cup of tea and asked with a smile, "What is it? You cannot sleep?"

Lu Li sat face to face with Mo Ye and nodded. He took a sip of the tea and asked, "Master Mo, what kind of person is my grandpa?"

"Your grandpa?"

Lu Li had never talked much about Lu Renhuang, nor did he ever ask about the Lu Family. Mo Ye was very interested that Lu Li suddenly began to talk about the Lu Family. Mo Ye replied after some thoughts, "Your grandpa is the Family Patriarch of the Lu Family and he ranks No. 9 at the Warlord List. He is known to be the most powerful person of the Central Plains, defense-wise. I think he should be about 150 years old."

"Um… he was already not young when he gave birth to your father. At younger ages, he has been obsessed with Wu Dao and he got married very late. Actually, I only met him once about 30 years ago. I think he is very impressive and he is kind of old-fashioned."

Lu Li had a mental picture of an old-fashioned elder in his mind. He asked again after a pause, "Then does my father have any brothers or sisters? I mean not cousins."

"No brothers!"

Mo Ye continued, "Your father is the only son but you have an aunt. Your grandpa married late and he is faithful. He only married your grandma and they have a son and a daughter. Your aunt’s name is Lu Feixue and she is married to the Young Master of Palace of God, a seventh-rank force. This Palace of God is also at the eastern Central Plains, as famous as the Palace of Blue Lions."

"Aunt?"

Lu Li smiled. This aunt was his close kin. He should go and visit her.

Then he asked, "So what about my grandma?"

Mo Ye put on a sad expression, shook his head and sighed. "Your grandma passed away more than 10 years ago. Lu Family held a secret memorial service. I got the news from the Palace of Blue Lions."

"Oh…"

Lu Li looked upset. He didn’t have much of an idea about his grandma. That being said, she was his close relative and he felt bad for not being able to meet her.

More than a decade ago?

His father should be at the Northern Desert then. Thinking that his father didn’t know his grandma had passed away, Lu Li sighed again.

Mo Ye forced a smile and said, "Young Master, I am sorry. But I think that your grandma will be happy at the other world to see you back at the Lu Family. Your grandpa will be even happier to see you."

"Yes. Let’s rest and we will go to the Mystic Armor City tomorrow."

Lu Li nodded and went back to his room but he had a harder time falling asleep. What it would be like for him to see his own grandpa and for the Lu Family to know his return?

In a daze, he was woken up by Ming Yu. It was morning.

They took some food for a simple breakfast and then Mo Ye took out an Iron-armored Ship and they set forth for the Mystic Armor City. It would take more than four hours. Teleportation could not get them there anymore on account of the fact that the Mystic Armor Region was sealed off.

Lu Li was getting more and more excited during the four hours. He stood on the deck, staring into the distance.

Four hours later, a huge city emerged on the horizon. Lu Li had an urge to cry, looking at that ancient city. He murmured, "Sister, I found the Lu Family. I am back, at last…"
