The Invincible Dragon Emperor - Chapter 1025

Chapter 1025




The Jiang Family was under the impression that since Lu Li was Jiang Qiling's husband, Jiang Family was the most glamorous family at the Great Land apart from the Lu Family .

Jiang Qiling was one of Lu Li's three wives, but Bai Qiuxue and Bai Xiashuang did not come from a strong background . Jiang Family had always viewed Jiang Qiling as the wife, and Bai Qiuxue and Bai Xiashuang were the concubines .

Lately, Lu Li did favor the Jiang Family . Previously, Jiang Tianshun had little power in the Demon-slaying Hall . But now, he was second only to Patriarch of Law Enforcement and Lu Zhengyang . Besides, Jiang Family had pocketed many profits from the Ocean Land of the East and Feather Land of the West . Recently, to make things better for them, Lu Li had handled the Voodoo Land of the South for Jiang Tianshun to manage . Basically, Lu Li had given the land to the Jiang Family .

Over the years, the Jiang Family had been developing fast . With so many resources, powerful warriors' development was easy . Currently, the Jiang Family boasted five Earth Immortal Realm warriors and over a hundred Human Sovereign Realms . Jiang Family's status and power had reached an all-time high!

As a result…

Jiang Family misread it as a sign that Lu Li valued the Jiang Family, and that because of Jiang Qiling, the Jiang Family mattered to Lu Li . Otherwise, why would he have given the Voodoo Land of the South to the Jiang Family?

Over the years, unknowingly, the Jiang Family had been spoiled by Lu Li . The Jiang Family's disciples had reached a consensus—apart from the Lu Family, they could provoke anyone . They could even fight disciples of the Palace of Immortal's Inquires, Red Lunar, and Palace of Heaven's Roars .

As a matter of fact, for the past several years, the Jiang Family disciples did clash with the Palace of Immortal's Inquires, Red Lunar, and the Palace of Heaven's Roars . Every time, the three forces suffered in silence . They were being choked by a silent fury, which worsened Jiang Family's bullying behaviors .

Ye Family's status was high and was powerful . Ye Luo married Lu Hongyu and was Lu Li's friend .

Even so, Jiang Family believed that Ye Family was not as closely bonded to Lu Li as they did . Lu Hongyu was Lu Li's cousin while Jiang Qiling was the Family Patriarch . In a manner of speaking, Lu Li was the Jiang Family's Family Patriarch . They thought Lu Li would take Jiang Family's side when the two families were in conflict .

However, the Jiang Family was wrong . Lu Li slapping Jiang Qiling's uncle away proved that they were beyond wrong .

Back in the days, Lu Fengyun was Great Grandpa Five's son and yet Lu Li did not show mercy, not to mention to the Jiang Family!

There were few people that Lu Li cared about in his life . He would never discriminate in favor of someone he did not care about, not even his relatives, let alone a Jiang Family that not even Jiang Qiling liked .


"Lu Li…"

An elder of the Jiang Family moved his lips . He was about to say something when Lu Li glared at him and shouted, "Piss off!"

Nobody else dared to share their voice anymore . A patriarch of the Jiang Family came over, carried Jiang Wuwo in his arms and left with their warriors like disowned dogs .

Ye Luo forced a smile and shook his head . "Lu Li, I am sorry for all the trouble!"

"It's quite alright!"

Lu Li patted Ye Luo's shoulder and said, "It seems that the Ye Family will have to suffer some loss this time . Now, please go back . Later, I will go to Ye City and admit my error in person . "

"Admit your error!"



The patriarchs and warriors of the Ye Family looked at each other . They were speechless and afraid at the same time . They could not afford to have Lu Li come to their doors to apologize .

"Okay . We will go now!"

Ye Luo knew Lu Li very well . The former nodded and flew away with Ye Family warriors .

Ye Luo and the others left . Lu Li glanced at Zi Lian in the Cherry Blossom Valley . Throughout this time, Zi Lian had been sitting in the pavilion . She never threw a glance at Lu Li .

Lu Li told Ye Cha to wait for his orders outside and flew into the valley on his own . Outside the pavilion, the two maids dropped to their knees in fear . Lu Li waved them away .

After the maids left, Zi Lian finally turned to Lu Li emotionlessly . Her eyes were calm, and he could not tell what was on her mind .

He looked at her, her meager face . "Why do you have to kill someone?" He hesitatingly asked .

Zi Lian picked up her cup and gazed at it . She said nothing and did not sip the tea either . After the time for a dozen breaths, she finally opened her mouth . "He upset me . I was angry . So, I killed him . "

"This is not like you!"

Lu Li shook his head . "The Zi Lian I know can distinguish the good from the bad and is a gentle girl from a respectable family . She will not resort to murder just over some trivial matter . "

"Ha, ha~"



Zi Lian put on a fake smile . It did not even look like a smile at all . Her lips curled and she said sarcastically, "The Zi Lian you know has long gone . The Zi Lian you see now is a wandering ghost without a parent, without relatives or loved ones . Do not be surprised for anything she does . "

"Just as I thought…"

Lu Li sighed . Love begets hatred . In addition, the Zi Family was gone . Those events had twisted her personality .

Just like Jiang Qiling years ago, Zi Lian cared about nothing . She would not worry even if she was bringing about a disaster, let alone killing someone . Worst came to worst, she would be killed . For her, death might mean… liberation .

Lu Li felt guilty about the death of Zi Huanqiao and the extinction of the Zi Family . It happened because of him . Some young masters and young ladies of the Zi Family survived . Lu Li told Ming Yu to look after them and to supply them anything they wanted and unlimited Mystical Materials .

Lu Li was burning with rage . But now, looking at Zi Lian, he did not know how to vent his anger nor what to do . He stood there helplessly .

"Lu Li!"

Zi Lian suddenly grinned as she looked at him . "I was the one who flirted Jiang Wuwo . I also learned a trick of seduction from the Hags Race . Jiang Wuwo is obsessed with me . If you don't come, I will talk him into a full-blown war against the Ye Family and drown the Ye City with blood . That will be a spectacular scene . "

"…"

Lu Li could not find the words to say to her . A crazy woman would listen to no reason .

His face was clouded, but he did not flare up . He sighed . "Why do you have to give up on yourself? You can find any talented young men considering your status . What is the point of being like this?"

"It is quite pointless!"

Zi Lian smiled and shook her head . "When I killed those people, I felt a pleasant sensation . Now, I feel nothing . I am tired now . Lu Li, do it . Kill me so you can answer to the Ye Family . I am too exhausted to be alive . I am attached to nothing in this world . You don't want me…"

Nothing is more lamentable than a dead heart . Looking at her, Lu Li felt grieved . He had always viewed Zi Lian as a friend . Zi Huanqiao basically entrusted her to Lu Li when he died . How could Lu Li kill her even though she had done something wrong?

"Alas… I will take care of this matter for you!"

After a moment of silence, Lu Li looked away and turned his back to Zi Lian . He did not try to comfort her or to reason with her . He sighed . "Conduct yourself well . You may not want to think for yourself, but you have to think about your cousins . If you cross the line, you may cause the destruction of what is left of the Zi Family . How can you face your father when you go to the underworld?"

With that said, Lu Li flew away toward the Ye City .

Zi Lian did not stop him . She absent-mindedly watched him as he left . Tears dropped from her pretty face .

A moment later, this weeping beauty's eyes had a cold glow . She murmured, "Lu Li, I have given you a chance . Since you remain in your heartless ways, then don't blame me for… being merciless . "
