After a moment of hesitation, Qu Cheng made up his mind and swallowed the pellet. In a minute, a red glow began to envelop him. Following that, his face and muscles were covered in red patterns. Lu Li took a closer look and noticed they were small fire phoenixes. Lu Li was taken aback. The red pellet must have much to do with fire phoenix birth.
“Ah~”
Qu Cheng was shivering in pain. After the time for half an incense stick to burn, the red glow fainted and he returned to normal. He opened his eyes to look at Lu Ling, only now there wasn’t cruelty in his eyes anymore. He knelt on one knee and said with respect, “Greetings, Saint Lord!”
“Okay now!”
Lu Ling smiled and said to Lu Li, “This is Fire Phoenix Soul Pellet. I used my Fire Phoenix Energy to make them. Anyone that is fed with this pellet will turn to be my slave.”
“No wonder…”
Lu Li murmured. All his doubts were resolved.
After Lu Ling was taken to the Clouds Plains, she used the pellet to secretly control Master and Great Patriarch of the Drifting Cloud Hall. Then, she quietly took control of Human Sovereign Realm warriors of the three forces. She laid down an elaborate trap to lure the Human Sovereign Realm warriors of the Palace of Sun out for the goal of unifying the Clouds Plains and becoming the empress.
A little bit over two years ago, Lu Ling was a vulnerable girl. She was taken away by Ghost Snake Granny and then was snatched to the Clouds Plains.
During that time, not only did she cultivate to the Noble Lord Realm, she also had devised a secret plan to take over the Clouds Plains. If not seen with one’s own eyes, one would not believe such matter would be true.
“Sister!”
Lu Li looked at Lu Ling, pointed to the old man with white bear and said, “I think your memory is sealed by that man. You can ask him to help you with it.”
“Yes, I know!”
Lu Ling nodded and said to Tu Ni, “Tu Ni, Hu Lang, Qu Cheng, now go and organize the armies. Advance to the Palace of Sun. I will give you one month’s time. If you cannot unify the Palace of Sun after a month, you will come and apologize to me with your own death.”
“Yes!”
Tu Ni and the other two left, leaving behind three other Human Sovereign Realm warriors. Lu Li turned to the white-bearded old man and said, “You Ping, was it you that sealed off my memory?”
You Ping nodded obediently and said, “Saint Lord, when I brought you back here, all you could think of was going back to the Northern Desert and you had no mood in cultivation. I was afraid that it might influence with your progress so I have forcefully sealed off your memory.”
“Hmm!”
Lu Ling said coldly, “Then undo it now.”
The white-bearded old man hurried over. A white glare shone from his hand and enveloped Lu Ling’s head. She appeared to be in pain soon. Lu Li stood on the side, observing nervously. After one hour, her situation became better.
You Ping put his hand away after a while and stood on the side in respect. Lu Li looked at her nervously and attempted to call her, “Sister!”
Lu Ling’s eyelashes twitched. She didn’t open her eyes immediately. She was panting. After the time for one incense stick to burn, she finally opened her eyes gradually and turned to Lu Li.
“Sister!”
Lu Li saw the familiar looks in her. He trembled as he called her. Lu Ling still said nothing. She just stared at Lu Li, dropping tears. They ran down her cheek and fell to the ground, making a clear sound.
“Sister!”
Lu Li could no longer hold back his feelings. He hugged Lu Ling and she did the same. She had used so much strength for fear that Lu Li might disappear suddenly.
The siblings cried bitterly into each other’s arms. They finally calmed down after the time for three incense sticks to burn. Lu Ling patted his back, left his arms and waved the three Human Sovereign Realm warriors to leave.
After the hall was clear, she reached out her hand, stroke his face and said, “Lu Li, is this a dream? You…how did you spend all those years? How did you find your way to the Clouds Plains?”
“Ha, ha~”
Lu Li was imbued in joy after Lu Ling recovered her memory. He smiled shyly and said, “Sis, this is not a dream. I have been looking for you for over two years. I have looked all over the Central Plains and I cannot find you. With some luck, I found a passage in a small world linking to the Serenity Plains. I sent someone there to ask for you and then realized that you are in Clouds Plains.”
“The entire Central Plains?” Lu Ling raised her eyebrows as she asked, “You’ve been back to the Central Plains, to the Lu Family?”
“Yes!”
Lu Li nodded and said, “I went back to the Lu Family. But…I am no longer a disciple of the Lu Family. I was kicked out. Grandpa was poisoned and still in a coma. His big brother has the authority over the Lu Family now. I was framed by Lu Suan. Even though Great Patriarch saved me, the Lu Family still put out a notice about me being driven out.”
“Um?”
Lu Ling’s facial expressions grew cold. She said with fury, “How dare the Lu Family treat you like this? I will go there and make it right for you!”
Before Lu Li could say anything, she asked again with concern, “How have you been? What have happened? Tell me. I will get back at anyone who have wronged you.”
Somehow, Lu Li felt the urge to cry, looking at how steamed Lu Ling was. He paused and began to tell her everything over the years. He even told her the story of Demon-slaying Hall, withholding no information.
To Lu Li, Lu Ling was the dearest to his heart. He kept no secret from her.
“You are the Emperor of the Northern Desert? You can beat warriors of the Noble Lord Realm?”
Lu Ling was moved by his story. He had spent two years more inspiring than hers. He had undergone so many sufferings. Stroking his cheeks, she said with both pride and tenderness, “I know that my brother is not an average person. Real dragons are bound to soar. I am sorry for putting you through so much over the years.”
“Sis, it’s okay!”
Lu Li shook his head and said, “I am sorry. You have been leading a wandering life and you have gone through so much. Sister, how come you can control Human Sovereign Realm warriors?”
“Controlling them is easy!”
With a cold expression, Lu Ling said, “I am of fire phoenix birth and I have Fire Phoenix Energy in me. You Ping and Tu Ni both wanted my Fire Phoenix Energy. They had been training me. They wanted to sleep with me when my Fire Phoenix Energy turn into Fire Phoenix Flames to absorb them. They are extremely useful to warriors. They can transform warriors’ bodies so they can have a better chance of reaching the Earth Immortal Realm.”
“Taking advantage of their greed, I secretly cultivated Fire Phoenix Soul Skill and made the Fire Phoenix Soul Pellets. Tu Ni and You Ping didn’t know what those pellets were about. I coaxed them to take the pellets. Their souls were under control and they have become my slaves.”
“Later, I brought Tu Ni and You Ping with me to the three forces secretly and set their leaders up. They were fed with Fire Phoenix Soul Pellets as well. Then I began to work on setting up the Human Sovereign Realm warriors of the Palace of Sun. You know the rest of the story.”
“But I didn’t realize that the relationship between the Palace of Sun and the Samsara Palace is so deep and an old man of the Ji Family happened to be here. If it weren’t for you, I would suffer defeat on the verge of victory.”
Lu Ling’s words were casual and her tone as well. But Lu Li could hear the risks and dangers she had met with. It was all over now. Lu Ling was not hurt, which relieved Lu Li.
“Sis, you are amazing!”
Lu Ling was friendless and helpless. She had been in the Clouds Plains for merely over two years and she had controlled five Human Sovereign Realm warriors, four forces with nobody finding out. Now, she had become the overlord of the Clouds Plains. Lu Li was proud of her. He believed he could never catch up with her on resourcefulness.
