Let me find out the current speed!

According to the information that appeared on Lu Li’s mind, the Wicked Bead’s speed increased. Lu Li left the new hall and flew the Wicked Bead up and out of the Valley of Cherry Blossoms.

Whoosh~

In the sky, Lu Li sped up the Wicked Bead to the maximum. The Wicked Bead trembled a bit and then shone brightly, dashing into the distance in a blur.

What~



Lu Li tried to get a sense of the elevated speed. He was surprised to realize that the Wicked Bead seemed to be… faster than the immortal’s body.
The immortal’s body was 10 times as fast as a warrior at the peak of the Semi-God Realm. Now that the Wicked Bead was faster than the immortal’s body, it could be said that the Wicked Bead could move quicker than an average immortal.
But it was understandable that the Wicked Bead was quicker than an average immortal since the Wicked Bead was said to be a supreme Relic. After all, a supreme Relic was something that not even mighty warriors in the Divinity could have.

Wait a minute…

On second thought, Lu Li believed the Wicked Bead did not deserve to be called a supreme Relic if all the Wicked Bead could do was this much.
By far, the Wicked Bead had not presented any out of the world functions. Its defense was not that strong, and the speed was not exaggerating exactly. The spatial leap could not cover a very long distance. A new hall was revealed, but the stuff for forging Relics was of little use to Lu Li.

Immortal’s body, full speed ahead!

Lu Li let out the immortal’s body and let him take a head start. Then, Lu Li tried to go after him in the Wicked Bead. After a moment, Lu Li came to the conclusion that the Wicked Bead was three to five times faster than the immortal’s body. As such, the Wicked Bead must be quicker than an average immortal.

Go back!

After a while, Lu Li took the immortal’s body back in and went back to the Wicked Bead. He did not fly at full speed. On his way, he was wondering when he should embark on his journey.


Revenge was a must or else Lu Li would have nightmares about the deceased civilians. He would not have a clear conscience unless he tried.

Rest for a month and then set off. If Jiang Qiling, Qiuxue and Xiashuang want to go, I will take them to the Purgatory of Primordial Chaos.

Lu Li had a hunch that not long afterward, he would ascend to the Divinity. Therefore, he must make every minute count with his three wives.
Back to the Valley of Cherry Blossoms, Lu Li saw that Jiang Qiling and the twins were all there, walking around with little Lu An.
It had been two months since Lu Li last saw Lu An. He could walk pretty well now. He looked strong and quite adorable.

Darling!

Jiang Qiling and the twins went to greet Lu Li. It was not often that Lu An could meet with Lu Li. He said timidly,
Daddy!


My dear Lu An!

Lu Li picked up Lu An and patted his head fondly. Lu An now was Lu Li’s son. Even though he did not adopt Lu An, given his relationship with Ye Luo and Lu Hongyu, he could be like Lu An’s godfather. Out of instinct, Lu Li was fond of Lu An.
After Lu Li and his three wives chatted for a while, Lu Zhengyang came with Master of Fairy Fox and Master of Haechi. Lu Li terminated their soul contracts on the spot and set them free.



Thank you, master!

Though Master of Fairy Fox and Master of Haechi regained their freedom, they did not dare do anything. They knew Lu Li’s powers very well. Lu Li could slay them to death easily. The two no longer hated Lu Li. After all, Lu Li killed many warriors of the Yan Family. Essentially, Lu Li had avenged their ancestors.

No problem!

Lu Li waved his hand.
I will set off for the Purgatory of Primordial Chaos in a month. Come with me.

Master of Fairy Fox and Master of Haechi thanked him again and left. Lu Li handed the Bead of Wood to Lu Zhengyang and said,
Grandpa, take care of this. Pass this along as a family heirloom.

Two months ago, Jiang Qiling had sent a message to Lu Zhengyang who knew what Lu Li was going to tell him.
Lu Zhengyang did not take the Bead of Wood. He shook his head.
Lu Li, aren’t you going to the Prison of Gold? Go and find your father. Let him have this item. I am too old to use it.

Lu Li nodded in agreement. It was said that Lu Renhuang had reached the Semi-God Realm and had progressed. This Relic could double his might. Lu Zhengyang, on the other hand, was only at the Earth Immortal Realm. It was of little value for Lu Zhengyang to have the Bead of Wood.

What do the disciples of the Lu Family been doing lately? Have they gotten into any troubles?

It was rare that Lu Zhengyang could come over. Lu Li took the chance to chat with him. Lu Zhengyang nodded.
Recently, they have been good. Nobody is up to any monkey business. Someone is having some fun, drinking, and dining but I don’t mind that. Lu Li, I discussed with my father recently and talked about implementing a reformation in the family. Tell me if it is feasible.




Oh?
Lu Li was interested.
What kind of reformation?

Lu Zhengyang organized his thoughts and said,
I want to enforce a rule of reward and punishment in the family. Any disciple, whether they are from the immediate family or a branch, can be granted with resources as long as they are diligent. Even a disciple from the immediate family will have reduced resources and salary if they do not cultivate with efforts. In fact, those disciples will be punished.

Usually, disciples of the immediate family enjoyed a high status in the family. After all, their fathers generally had high positions in the family. Those disciples had more than enough resources and even if they ended up in trouble, their fathers would always take care of that.
Hence, many disciples became playboys, and they contaminated the culture and even brought shame to the Lu Family.
Lu Zhengyang hoped to motivate disciples of the family to cultivate and adopt the right attitude so as to lay the foundation for the long-term development of the family by implementing such a rule of reward and punishment.
Lu Family was a big household with tremendous wealth and high status. Lu Family disciples could do anything they wanted wherever they went.
Lu Guangting, that patriarch, was a case in point. Zhao Family used his name to threaten people. If Lu Guangting were not a patriarch of the Lu Family, he would not have such fame.
Lu Li thought for the time for one incense stick to burn before he said,
Grandpa, here is a piece of advice for you. Set up a mechanism of core disciples in the family. Any disciple, whether they are from the immediate family or a branch, can be admitted as a core disciple as long as they are talented and reliable. Those core disciples can enjoy the best status and high powers. At the same time, a disciple that is not admitted as a core disciple cannot tell the public that they are a disciple of the Lu Family. The Hall of Patriarch will have the authority to approve, and one must have the votes of over half of the patriarchs to be able to become a core disciple.


Core disciple?

Lu Zhengyang’s eyebrows were knitted together. Jiang Qiling and Bai Qiuxue, who was sitting there, were interested. A moment later, Jiang Qiling stood up and said,
That is good. Someone invite my Grandpa over. From now on, our Jiang Family will implement such rules as well.




Darling, this is such a great idea!

Bai Qiuxue said in agreement,
You don’t judge a disciple by his or her background, only their talent, and personality. Anyone that is not a core disciple cannot declare that they are Lu Family disciples. In this way, a road of development can be paved for a disciple born in branches of the family. It will also urge disciples of the immediate family to cultivate! This will lead to a virtuous cycle and more powerful warriors will rise up in the family.


The idea is amazing!

Lu Zhengyang was worried.
But… I suppose most patriarchs will say no, right? After all, this will harm their interests.

Lu Zhengyang’s concern was well-grounded. Once this mechanism was in place, disciples of the immediate family and the branches would be standing at the same starting line.
If their offspring did not work hard, they would be replaced by disciples from the branches. When the former aged or died, their offspring would actually become the branches, and the former branches would overwhelm them.
This mechanism would violate all patriarchs’ interests. Most of them would vote against such a rule, which might lead to chaos. That would potentially be harmful to the family.

Ha, ha!

Lu Li smiled.
Grandpa, just do it. If they don’t want to do it, tell them to talk to me. This mechanism might harm someone’s interests but in the long run, the Lu Family will grow stronger. Besides, I have left behind the skills and Relics. Maybe, in hundreds of years, the Lu Family can try out our luck in the nine universes.
