Chapter 639: Rendezvous with Lady Yu

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

Lu Li was not making a sick joke or fooling others like they were stupid. He was trying to hide his strength and identity.

Now that he had used Shrink Skill, his cover would blow once he used his full strength to attack. Resorting to soul attacks would cause Ji Mengtian and Die Feiyu to have suspicions. However, he had never used Soul Shattering Skill in front of others. There was no way Ji Mengtian could have known.

He also chose not to use Xuan Energy to confuse others. He was physically strong already. How hard could the Soul Pond of a Noble Lord Realm warrior be? Lu Li could crush it relying solely on physical strength.

When he used his full strength to release Soul Shattering Skill, he could even kill Human Sovereign Realm warriors. He hurt Recluse Solar Dragon last time. He would have killed the Noble Lord Realm warrior should he have used Xuan Energy.

His first two moves were to confuse others and Liu Fu. His Soul Shattering Skill was strange in that it would inflict no wound on the outside and it could crush Soul Ponds directly. The feature made others wonder and surprised, thinking that Lu Li had learned some taboo skill of some demons. In this way, they wouldn’t figure out his true identity.

That was what made it clever!

Lu Li used no Xuan Energy or soul attack. Many were staring at him. They felt he was both enigmatic and ridiculous, him folding his hands behind his back and looking up to the sky.

Of course, nobody dared to laugh. Ye Luo reacted quickly. He signaled for the steward to take Liu Fu down to heal.

“Impressive!”

Ye Luo exclaimed. He acted as if he was trying to cozy up to Lu Li and said, “Brother Gu, you are so skilled. I admire that. Please, let’s have a drink.”

A maid served a goblet of wine. Lu Li picked it up and drank it up. He said casually, “Young Master Ye, you flatter me. I just got lucky and I learned from a famous mentor.”

“Famous mentor?”

Many were intrigued for they hadn’t figured out how Lu Li’s seemingly gentle slap would shatter Liu Fu’s Soul Pond. Naturally, they were eager to know the answer now that Lu Li said he had a mentor.

Ye Luo picked up the cue and asked, “Oh? And your mentor is…”

Lu Li smiled a mysterious smile, shook his head and said, “My respected mentor is indifferent to fame and wealth. He had been in retirement for eight or nine hundred years. Before he retired, he was once a world-famous warrior.”

Eight or nine hundred years? World-famous?

Ji Mengtian and Die Feiyu looked at each other, stunned. A great warrior that was famous around the globe more than eight or nine hundred years ago? Then that warrior must be powerful.

Even though most powerful warriors of the human kind had gone to the Demon-slaying Hall, some old freaks chose otherwise. Some of them didn’t like to be bound by the rules of the Demon-slaying Hall because of their personality and some wanted nothing other than seeking wisdom in retirement. Ji Mengtian knew some confidential information that at least 15 of the top 50 on the Warlord List of the Great Land chose to retire from society.

Ji Mengtian, Die Feiyu and others were frowning. Evidently, they were guessing who Lu Li’s mentor was. He was pleased. He meant to misguide them to a wrong direction so his true identity could be hidden.

“Lady Mengtian!”

Sending Ji Mengtian lascivious glances, Lu Li said, “You promised three goblets of wine.”

Ji Mengtian came back to her senses. Putting on a bewitching smile, she raised a hand and said, “I meant it. Young Master Gu, you are amazing. I should drink.”

Ji Mengtian drank three goblets of wine in a row. Her cheeks became rosy and her eyes sparkling. She was so radiating that people could not look at her directly.

“I am otherwise occupied. Excuse me now.”

Before Lu Li drank his wine, Ji Mengtian nodded to Ye Luo and took one last glance of the young masters and young ladies and left with Die Feiyu.

When she was about to step out, she stopped and turned back to look at Lu Li, only to see him staring at her with lust. He even said with a grin, “What, Lady Mengtian, you don’t want to leave me? Ha, ha, ha, if you want to see me, you can send someone to me to make an appointment at any time.”

“Pff~”

Ji Mengtian spat into air. She might be angry or just pretending to be reserved. She dragged Die Feiyu away without any pause and vanished into the horizon.

“Ye Rong, entertain them. I need to go to Mount Buddha to meet with an elder.”

Ye Lou stood up. It would be strange for him to stay here longer. He made an eye contact with Lu Li and then left with Ye Yu.

Lu Li grinned. Then he went back to the corner to drinking. After all, he was a young master of the Gu Family with low status. He couldn’t have left, which otherwise would draw more attention.

The mood was less exciting once Ye Luo, Ye Yu, Ji Mengtian and Die Feiyu left. Some began to befriend Lu Li while more still gave Lu Li intimidating looks.

Lu Li had offended many today. He had one scary means. Nevertheless, it was true that he was only at the peak of the Eternal Realm and that the Gu Family was a fifth rank family.

As for the fact…he had a famous mentor? Now that many thought about it, they felt Lu Li was lying.

If Lu Li had such a powerful mentor, how could he have only be at the peak of the Eternal Realm? He must have earned fame at the Central Plains.

Some young ladies went head over heels for Lu Li. They made eyes at Lu Li. Two young ladies came to toast to Lu Li with flirty looks…

The drama was over and the luncheon was about to end. Some began to leave. Lu Li and Gu Min remained seated, waiting for others to leave first.

Soon, Ye Rong was gone as well. Taking the chance, many in the hall took leave as well. In no time, the once lively hall became empty.

Lu Li still was seated. Gu Min looked at him with confusion. When all was gone, Lu Li finally stood up and said, “Let’s go now.”

As soon as they were out of the hall, a steward of the Ye Family came to report, “Young Masters Gu, Lady Yu requests the pleasure of seeing you.”

“Eh?”

Gu Min didn’t understand. He thought Lu Li was waiting for a secret meeting with Ye Luo. How come it was Ye Yu waiting for Lu Li?

“Let’s go!”

Lu Li shrugged, not surprised at all. Instead, he admired Ye Luo’s wisdom. If Ye Luo were to meet Lu Li now, an observant and conscientious person would smell something fishy. It was possible that…Ye Luo was really on his way to Mount Buddha.

A young master of the Gu Family made a demonstration of incredible abilities and the young lady of the Ye Family came forward to recruit him—it was natural.

Lu Li and Gu Min were shown to a side chamber. In the side chamber, the steward led them to a back room. At the door, the steward gave Gu Min a look and the latter had the good sense to stand by the door.

Lu Li pushed the door in. Ye Yu was the only one in there. He touched his nose in embarrassments, cupped his fists and said, “Nice to meet you, Lady Yu!”

“Ha, ha~”

Ye Yu stuck her tongue out and walked up to Lu Li with a grin, not minding that she was in the room with a man alone. She asked curiously, “Young Master Lu, how did you chance your appearance? I cannot see any signs of disguise. This is marvelous. Can you teach me that? This is so fun…”
