Chapter 899: White Hair on a Young Head

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Lu Li was still resting quietly to recuperate. Nobody was allowed to visit him for he was too weak. It was not his body or his soul, but his spirit that was vulnerable.

Blood of the Slayer was so overwhelming that it seemed to have burnt up all of his energy and consumed all of his vitality. Ding Gui and the other patriarchs of the Shennong Race did pour their energy of life to Lu Li. But that was an act of force. Lu Li had lost his own. He needed time for adjustment and self-healing.

Patriarchs of the Demon-slaying Hall were relieved to hear that Lu Li had woken up even though they could not visit him at the moment. The next day came with a piece of news. The patriarchs found it unacceptable, like a bolt from the blue.

Patriarch of Law Enforcement decided to retire from the position. He would assume no position at the Demon-slaying Hall and focus entirely on cultivation.

At the moment, the Demon-slaying Hall was peaceful. It was not a major problem if the Patriarch of Law Enforcement decided to retire. What made it troublesome was that Patriarch of Law Enforcement appointed Lu Zhengyang as his successor!

Throughout history, Patriarch of Law Enforcement had always been the position that was second only to the Grand Master. Not even the Deputy Master and Assistant Master could compete with the Patriarch of Law Enforcement because it came with a position that has the ability to interpret the law, enforce the law and hold power over people’s lives and properties.

Usually, Grand Masters would nominate candidates for the position of Patriarch of Law Enforcement and then the Hall of Patriarchs would have to vote. Unlike family patriarchs at the Great Land, the position of Patriarch of Law Enforcement was not hereditary and could be passed on at will.

Lu Zhengyang was Patriarch of Law Enforcement’s son, which was an object of public denouncements in itself. To make it worse, Lu Zhengyang was not quite a powerful warrior and he had never joined the Demon-slaying Hall before!

The Demon-slaying Hall had a strict promotion policy. Seniority mattered much to promotions. Only people like Lu Li that had made great contributions to the human kind could attain the highest level in one step.

What was more, Lu Li killed Ji Zhantian and Emperor of Heaven Reverse himself appointed Lu Li. Otherwise, patriarchs of the Demon-slaying Hall would never agree. Lu Li would have to kill a number of people to assume power.

How could Lu Zhengyang deserve this position? What had he done for the benefit of the Demon-slaying Hall and humankind? Many patriarchs were much senior to Lu Zhengyang. Who would accept someone inferior to them in seniority and abilities to order them around?

Almost half of the patriarchs gathered by Patriarch of Law Enforcement voiced their disagreement after he made the announcement. There weren’t many patriarchs staying in the Demon-slaying City at the moment. Many were still at the Eastern Land of Oceans. When those returned, more would oppose.

Patriarch of Law Enforcement did not waste too much breath. He used some simple words to refute, “Zhengyang did not make a contribution? Without Zhengyang, there will be no Lu Li. How about that? If you will not accept, then go tell the Grand Master after he recovers.”

Patriarch of Law Enforcement left, leaving the other patriarchs looking at each other speechlessly. Those that were about to make an argument ceased all activities.

Telling Lu Li of their disagreement? Telling him that they would not allow his grandfather to be the Patriarch of Law Enforcement? Lu Li would kill them on the spot, wouldn’t he?

Lu Li was known for his cruelty. During his development, he had forced a path open. Back at the Northern Desert, he had submerged the land with blood. At the Central Plains, because of his slaughtering, bones were piled up. When he came to the Demon-slaying Hall, he brought with him mountains of troubles…

All those that made themselves enemies of Lu Li, be it the most powerful force of the Central Plains, the Samsara Palace, or Pavilion of Blossoms, Hades Society, Life League, Yaksha Race or Ji Zhantian and Li Shang, had all turned into dead bodies, buried underground.

Lu Li was a maniac. His great grandfather was giving his grandfather a promotion. Could those patriarchs ever say no to Lu Li? To make a scene? To threaten Lu Li and protest?

It was not long ago when the body of the Asmodian Lord was brought back by Patriarch Huang. The Asmodian Lord’s chest was pierced through and his head was crushed.

The Asmodian Lord was at the Semi-God Realm, wearing a Semi-Relic armor. Even so, Lu Li punched him through? How strong was Lu Li? How capable?

And there was the Dragon Demon. One of the patriarchs came back with Patriarch Huang witnessed that fight. From this patriarch, people learned the story. They were appalled by how strong the Dragon Demon was. Lu Li had made that powerful Dragon Demon surrender and it was now his spirit beast.

Therefore, there was no doubt that Lu Li was strong. He could win even if all the powerful human warriors were to rise up against him. Someone even believed that Lu Li was as capable as the Emperor of Heaven Reverse before he ascended to the Divinity.

Therefore…

With his current authority and abilities, who dared to challenge Lu Li? Who could have the courage to ask for trouble? Once he was enraged, killing the offender was not even the worst part. He might even wipe out the offender’s entire family.

Gradually, something that was impossible became possible. The patriarchs quieted down. Nobody voiced disagreements in public. They might complain to themselves, but it would not make much of a difference.

Three days later, Lu Li felt better.

He was still weak, though, and needed another month or two to rest. What surprised him was that his hair could not turn back to black.

White hair on a young head!

That couldn’t be good. If it was because some bodily functions were affected, it could hinder his future cultivation.

However, Ding Gui was helpless in this area. He had poured much energy of life to Lu Li whose other bodily functions were fine. Ding Gui also found it strange that Lu Li’s hair would not turn back.

“Can it be about the Slayer?”

A picture came to Lu Li’s mind. The Slayer had white hair. Was Lu Li affected by the blood of the Slayer?

Lu Li did an inspection of his own body and made sure that he was fine otherwise. He decided not to mind his hair. He was not used to having white hair, but he did not care much about his appearances. Many ancient races had colorful hairs. He would grow used to it after a while.

“Buzzing~”

Lu Li took out the Wicked Bead and sent out Jiang Qiling and Bai Qiuxue who were cultivating. They saw Lu Li instantly. Both were greatly frightened to find Lu Li with white hair and pale face.

“It’s okay. Don’t be alarmed.”

Lu Li stopped them before they could ask any questions. “We are back at the Demon-slaying City and the Asmodian Lord is dead. I was injured but now I have recovered. Everything is fine,” said Lu Li.

Lu Li asked Ding Gui to leave and stayed with his two wives to comfort them. Not long afterwards, Patriarch of Law Enforcement came, saying that he would start cultivating and that he had asked Lu Zhengyang to be his successor.

Lu Li did not have a second opinion. The Demon-slaying City was generally peaceful. Given that Lu Zhengyang was the former Family Patriarch of the Lu Family, he was more than capable. As for what the patriarchs of the Demon-slaying Hall thought? Lu Li did not care.

Patriarch of Law Enforcement then told Lu Li what the patriarchs of Asmodians said before their demise. Lu Li was panic-stricken.

The others might not understand but Lu Li could detect the underlying meaning!

“Messengers? They may be powerful warriors from the Mage Imperial Universe.”

Lu Li already had such suspicion when he found that the Asmodian Lord knew about the Wicked Bead. What the patriarchs of the Asmodians said was further proof.

Powerful warriors of the Mage Imperial Universe were cracking down barriers between different worlds, trying to invade the Heaven Reverse Universe.

Lu Li was not afraid of those from the Mage Imperial Universe in the nine universes and the Prison of Gold because the Wicked Bead could not be cracked.

But if warriors of the Mage Imperial Universe were to come to the Heaven Reverse Universe, then it could bring about immense trouble…

Because those warriors could coerce Lu Li to give up the Wicked Bead, threatening with the lives of all humans of the Heaven Reverse Universe!
