"Okay!"

Patriarch Seven and Patriarch Lu looked at each other and the former said to Patriarch He, "Get him contribution points for these two weapons. Give him 10,000 contribution points for each one and another 2000 contribution points. Keep it under the rug for now. Lu Li, don’t get the word out either."

"Thanks, Patriarch Seven!"

Lu Li was overjoyed. The 22,000 contribution points together with the 7500 contribution points he already had was enough for him to trade for the Rolling Thunder Xuan Skill booklet.

Patriarch Seven walked out of the Hall of Weapons, but Patriarch Lu looked at Lu Li profoundly and told him, "Lu Li, I don’t care if the three men were killed by you or not. But you’d better stay in the Family for the meantime. Otherwise, the Zhao Family will definitely assassinate you."

Lu Li bowed again to express his gratitude. Patriarch Lu and Patriarch Seven left. Lu Li was granted 22,000 contribution points.

Lu Li didn’t stay after he got them. He went directly to the Hall of Xuan Skills after he left the Hall of Weapons. After he walked out, Patriarch Seven and Patriarch Lu emerged from a corner. The two looked at Lu Li leave with knitted brows.

Patriarch Seven stroked his long beard and asked, "Brother Lu, are you so sure that he killed them?"

"Ninety percent!"

Patriarch Lu answered. His eyes were small. When he squinted, it was like his eyes turned into two lines. He softly continued, "Patriarch Seven, you probably don’t know. This guy is a freak! One month ago, he couldn’t even cultivate Xuan Energy, but as of this moment, he is close to the peak of the Xuan Wu Realm. He has supernatural strength. I think he now has more than 44,000 pounds of strength. I don’t know clearly how Qi Sihai and the other two were killed, but I am sure that this guy has cards in his hands, cards that can let him kill warriors of a higher realm."

"Eh?"

Patriarch Seven was moved. He looked towards Lu Li’s direction with surprise and said with a deep voice, "You sure?"

Seeing Patriarch Lu nodding, Patriarch Seven pulled a long face. "He is a genius. Why don’t you try to enlist him to the External Clan? Why didn’t you report back to me earlier?"

Patriarch Lu bitterly smiled and shook his head. "It’s not we didn’t try anything. Lady Yi tried to win him over for several times. She even promised that he could marry a lady of the immediate family, but he refused. The punk didn’t care for stick or carrot. We think that we cannot rush on this. Things will develop in the opposite direction when they become extreme."

"Yi?"

Patriarch Seven pondered about it and ordered in a deep voice, "Go and find Yi. Ask her to win Lu Li at any cost. You know the family situation now. If Lu Li really is a peerless genius, our family can provide all resources to cultivate him."

"Okay!"

Patriarch Lu nodded and vanished into a small alley.

Patriarch Seven stood there for a long time. In the end, he left with a sigh. "There are so few powerful warriors in the family. Hopefully, our Family Patriarch can wake up soon, or Brother Eight can have some breakthrough. Or else, our family is in grave danger."

"You want to trade for the Volume 1 of the Rolling Thunder Xuan Skill booklet?"

Seeing Lu Li come back and ask for trading a Xuan Skill booklet directly, the elder at the Hall of Xuan Skills frowned and said, "Young man, don’t reach for what is beyond your grasp. Based on your cultivation realm, it would be immensely difficult to cultivate a Xuan Skill of the Earth Grade. Also… the Rolling Thunder Xuan Skill does not have the second volume. You cannot cultivate to the final level. You are wasting your contribution points."

"I insist!" Lu Li did not say anything else but handed over his Token.

Seeing how determined Lu Li was, the elder walked into the "special category" Xuan Skill room while shaking his head and sighing. Soon, he took out a copy of the Volume 1 of the Rolling Thunder Xuan Skill. After he deducted Lu Li’s contribution points, he looked at Lu Li go like looking at an idiot.

Earth Grade Xuan Skills were very precious. However, if the Xuan Skill booklet was not complete, it wouldn’t be of much use even if it were a Heaven Grade one. Lu Li had used more than 20,000 contribution points in exchange for an incomplete Xuan Skill. If he was not an idiot, who would be?

Lu Li cared not about what others think. He ran back to the Guest Clan with excitement. Lu Ling heard what he did and smiled a forced smile after she thought about it, "Brother, if I am not mistaken, Patriarch Lu probably is 100% certain that you have killed the three warriors at the Spirit Sea Realm. Soon, people will come to solicit you."

"But it’s alright!’

Lu Ling waved her hand on second thoughts. "The Zhao Family and the Liu Family are mutually antagonistic now. Zhao Family has found them a strong patron, but the Liu Family Patriarch is still in a coma. The Liu Family also suffered great casualties at the Frigid Cloud Mountain lately. Even if the Liu Family becomes aware that you did that, as long as you deny it, they won’t force you into a dilemma. Remember, anything is okay, but you cannot join the External Clan of the Liu Family."

"Yes, sister!" Lu Li nodded. He turned around and went to his room. Lu Li was anxious to start cultivating the Rolling Thunder Xuan Skill.

Double the strength!

If Lu Li could reach the greatest level of the Rolling Thunder Xuan Skill, he could easily kill warriors like Qi Sihai, killing one with each move.

He read the booklet in his room for an hour and had completely understood the first volume. The two volumes were indeed of the same Xuan Skill. Now, Lu Li had in his possession the complete Rolling Thunder Xuan Skill Secret Warrior Book.

After he read through Volume 1, he could now comprehend the second volume. That being said, understanding was not the same thing as being able to cultivate it. Earth Grade Xuan Skills were abstruse and complicated. Lu Li only grasped the superficial knowledge.

"The key of the Rolling Thunder Xuan Skill lies in the Xuan Power. One trace of Xuan Power can increase a hint of power. It is like tides, wave after wave, in a perpetual motion. In the end, strength can be doubled."

The basic idea had gotten through to Lu Li, which was attributable to the fact that he had cultivated under that waterfall for seven years. The Rolling Thunder Xuan Skill was to condense the Xuan Energy into Xuan Power, and mobilize Xuan Power when attacking to suddenly increase strength by a large margin, catching the opponent unprepared.

Assume two warriors were fighting and each one of them had strength of more than 10,000 pounds. When their weapons smashed together, if one side’s strength unexpectedly went up to more than 22,000 pounds…

Needless to say, the other one’s weapon would be smashed away and that one would be killed before he knew what was happening.

That was the basic idea which Lu Li understood, but how to cultivate Xuan Power, and how to use it, how to multiply it?

These were big issues, and couldn’t be seen through in a short period of time. Lu Li didn’t even know how to cultivate Xuan Power yet. If a Xuan Skill could be easily cultivated to the ultimate level, it wouldn’t be qualified as an Earth Grade Xuan Skill.

Rustle, rustle, and rustle!

Sounds of footsteps came from outside. Lu Li heard Lu Ling opening the door, then she talked to the person outside for a moment. After a while, she pushed Lu Li’s door open and said with a smile, "Lu Li, your trouble has come. Liu Yi asks you to go to the Rain Listening Pavilion."

Lu Ling had covered up her face because she was talking to strangers, but the teasing intent was obvious in her eyes. Lu Li, however, could not smile. He did not have time to listen to Liu Yi rambling about nonsense. Lu Li asked with his eyebrows tightly knitted together, "Can I not go?"

"What do you think?"

Lu Ling answered with a smile, "The maid is waiting for you outside. If you don’t go, Liu Yi will come here by herself."

"Alright!"

Lu Li tidied up his hair and clothes a bit and walked toward the outside. Seeing a maid was waiting for him, he waved and said in a depressing voice, "Lead the way."

The maid looked at Lu Li and said with some doubt, "Young Master Lu. Don’t you want to change into something else? There are many young ladies of the family in the Rain Listen Pavilion."

"No!"

Lu Li thought his clothes were clean. Besides, he didn’t have many elegant clothes. He waved and continued, "I am not a young master and I cannot afford good clothes. If you think this is unsightly, can I not go?"

"That was not what I meant. Master… Lord Lu, don’t get me wrong!"

The maid apologetically said. Then she walked out, twisting her slim waist, with Lu Li following her.

When Lu Li walked out of the yard, Lu Ling came out on her walking stick. She murmured with a smile, "Now you realize my brother is precious, huh? Ha, it’s too late now. Also, your Liu Family is so small that you don’t deserve him."
