Chapter 359: Alive
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
The Great Patriarch showed no emotions. He looked at Qiu Wenze and then at Lu Fenghuo and others. Finally, he threw Lu Li a meaningful glance with mixed feelings.
Great Patriarch turned to Lu Ling and the others that were on their knees. He waved his hand and said, "Leave. I will take it from here."
Lu Lin and the others looked up at Great Patriarch but said nothing. They went away. The Great Patriarch had such an authority in the family that nobody dared to do anything against his will.
All the escort warriors and onlookers left. There were only Lu Li and the patriarchs in the Hall of Patriarchs and Yu Huashen and Qiu Wenze as well.
Great Patriarch looked at Qiu Wenze and said, "Tianming, bring Qiu Wenze back to the Palace of Gods. Tell Qiu Wancheng that the marriage between Feixue and Qiu Wenze is off. Tell him to discipline his son."
"What?"
Lu Fenghuo was stunned. He was about to say something when Great Patriarch waved his hand and said, "I have made up my mind. Do as I say."
Patriarch Five, Lu Tianming, nodded. He brought Qiu Wenze with him and flew out of the Mystic Armor Mountain. Soon, they disappeared in the horizon.
Great Patriarch looked at Lu Fenghuo and Lu Liantian. He said after some thoughts, "Fenghuo, Liantian, you must remember that you cannot let our own disciples lose trust in us. The fact that the Lu Family can remain so powerful at the Central Plains is not reliant on the King Kong Bloodline. We have been counting on the cooperation and cohesion among the disciples. I will let this matter go. I will punish Lu Li myself."
"Whoosh!’
With that said, Great Patriarch grabbed Lu Li and then vanished in the Hall of Patriarchs. The other patriarchs looked at each other with mixed feelings.
"I am too old that I couldn’t think straight…"
Patriarch Eight sighed. He had calmed down now. He had been consumed by anger. If from the beginning he could remain calm and control the situation, it would not be this bad.
Patriarch Eight understood why Great Patriarch dealt with the matter like this. The fact that Lu Li of the Soul Pond Realm could almost kill Qiu Wenze at the Noble Lord Realm twice was worth Great Patriarch forgiving him for everything he did.
Lu Renhuang was a talented warrior and Lu Li was even more so. Even if Qiu Wenze was a good-for-nothing, he was at the Noble Lord Realm. That being said, he was on the edge of death on two occasions. Lu Li’s talent was beyond doubt.
For a big family, talented disciples meant more than anything else. If a talent did not understand to act according to the rules, it could be taught. It was also understandable that young people could become arrogant, but not everyone could possess talents.
…
Lu Li was grabbed by the Great Patriarch. He felt he was standing outside that fortress on the water in a blink.
Great Patriarch waved his hands and the doors were silently opened. He showed Lu Li in.
It was not elegant as Lu Li had imagined. Instead, it was rather crude inside. There was a hall with a square table and a pot of hot tea.
Great Patriarch put Lu Li down in the hall. He walked directly to a cushion behind the table and sat with his legs crossed. He poured himself a cup of hot tea before he said to Lu Li, "Tend to your wounds now. You are exactly like your father, so bad-tempered…"
Lu Li said nothing. He took out a towel to clean his bloodstains and he undid his Blood Claw Skill. He changed into a clean robe, took a healing pellet and hid Little White in his sleeve…
With that done, he sat opposite to Great Patriarch and poured himself a cup of tea to clean his mouth. Then he drank more tea without even looking at Great Patriarch.
"Ha, ha!’
Great Patriarch was delighted by Lu Li’s actions. He squinted and said to Lu Li, "So? Are you angry at me? Punk, do you not know to respect the elderly? Even your grandpa needs to call me Fifth Uncle."
Lu Li glanced at Great Patriarch and replied, "You are not a good person yourself. You only came come out after I made such a huge scene? Do you know nothing about my aunt?"
"Ha, ha, ha!"
Instead of getting angry, Great Patriarch laughed, shook his head and said, "You have a wrong impression about me. I have not minded the trivial stuff at the family for years. A huge scene? Even if you killed Qiu Wenze, it still wouldn’t be a huge scene for me. I don’t care if you have made a huge scene or others have."
Lu Li bought his words. This old man was so powerful that the extinction of the entire Palace of Gods would not be regarded as a serious matter.
Now that this old man came out and said in public that the marriage between Lu Feixue and Qiu Wenze was off, Lu Li was not as angry as before. He took a sip of the tea, nodded and said, "Alright, I’ll move on. Great Patriarch, I wonder… where my grandpa is and whether he is alive or not."
Great Patriarch’s expressions grew gloomy. He lowered his head and answered after a while, "I cannot tell you about your grandpa since you are not powerful enough yet. When you reach the Human Sovereign Realm, you will have the right to know. But I can tell you one thing, your grandpa is… alive."
"Okay, good…"
Lu Li exhaled. As long as his grandpa was alive, they could meet someday.
Lu Li didn’t follow up on this matter. Great Patriarch asked his question, "Kiddo, how come you didn’t awaken the King Kong Bloodline? How do you get this beast claw? I think… it feels like a Bloodline Skill. What about your beast ? Which rank is that little beast?"
"This old man is so well-informed."
Lu Li exclaimed to himself, but he didn’t tell Great Patriarch the truth. Patriarch Eight mentioned that the Great Patriarch was loyal to the family and to his grandpa. But Lu Li was already upset at Patriarch Eight for how he behaved. He could not talk himself into trusting this Great Patriarch right now.
Lu Li told a make-up story, "I don’t know why I cannot awaken the King Kong Bloodline. I went to the temple and failed. As for the beast claw and the roar, those are some secret skills I got from a historical site. I think they are puny skills for you, not worth mentioning."
"The how about the cloning skill?" Great Patriarch asked with a smile, "Is that puny as well? How come I think there is a Profound Meaning in it?"
Lu Li didn’t try to hide this. He frankly answered, "There is a Profound Meaning in it. It’s the Mirror Image Profound Meaning. I learned it accidentally."
"Accidentally…"
Even Great Patriarch was speechless this time. He didn’t ask more since Lu Li didn’t want to talk. He looked at Lu Li for a while and exclaimed, "Kid, you are so lucky. Too bad that you didn’t awaken the King Kong Bloodline."
Great Patriarch asked again after a pause, "Where is your father? You really don’t know?"
Lu Li would not tell the truth now since he already hid some information. He replied with a question, "If I knew where my father was, why would I come back on my own? I almost died on the way. Also, my sister is taken to the Cyan Plains. Do you think that we would suffer so much if our father was with us? I am only at the Soul Pond Realm now."
"Sigh…"
Great Patriarch sighed, shook his head and said, "You really have the same temper as your father. You are both so stubborn. If your father didn’t run away from the family, your grandpa wouldn’t suffer so much. The Lu Family wouldn’t sink to this level…"
"Suffer?" Lu Li frowned and asked, "What happened to my grandpa?"
"I told you that I cannot tell you!"
Great Patriarch waved his hand and said, "Go back now and cultivate. Tell your Fourth Uncle if you need any resources. Come and see me again only after you reach the Fate Wheel Realm. Behave yourself. Otherwise, even I cannot protect you."
