Chapter 29: The Lightning Tribulation Began

The man behind the Female Demon Emperor?

Lu Li completely lost interest after hearing it.

He did not want to become the man behind her, so he would not help her. No matter how strong she was, he would not like her too.

“I’m very grateful for your kindness. However, I just want to train hard now. I’ll think of other things after becoming a Jin Dan stage cultivator.”

Lu Li cupped his hands and politely rejected her offer.

“Alright.”

Hearing his words, Lu He nodded slightly. She put away the bottle and answered with a charming smile, “Then I hope you can break through to Jin Dan stage as soon as possible!”

“I also hope that you can become the number 1 Female Demon Emperor of the Demonic sect as soon as possible!”

Lu Li replied with a smile.

“Thank you.” Lu He stood up and said with a smile, “Junior Brother Lu, you can train here. I won’t disturb you anymore. I still have things to do. Oh right, please keep this secret between you and me. Don’t tell others!”

After saying that, she winked at him.

“Don’t you worry about it. I’ve always kept my mouth shut.”

Lu Li nodded.

“Okay! I trust you! It was nice talking to you. See you next time!”

As Lu He finished her sentence, she waved her hand and took back the jade crystal lotus.

“Senior Sister, take care.”

Lu Li immediately stood up and cupped his hands to send her off.

Lu He waved her hand, and a bone sword flew out from her sleeve.

Buzz.

The large sword vibrated, and with a flash of green light, it wrapped around Lu He and flew away.

Finally, she left.

Lu Li secretly let out a sigh of relief. After pondering for a moment, he prepared to return to the side of the black lake to continue cultivating.

He also wanted to take a look at the Thousand Spirits Banner.

He had to deal with the low-grade spirit ghost in his sleeve too.

Just as he was about to leave, a familiar voice suddenly sounded, “Junior Brother, you’re so lucky. You’re a babe magnet too.”

Lu Li’s stopped. He turned his head and saw someone he knew.

It was Bai Jinfei!

“Senior Brother, why are you here? Aren’t you in Thousand Ghosts City?”

Lu Li was a little surprised.

“Hahaha, someone told me that you had an argument with Li Jing, so I immediately rushed back. What’s the matter? Did I disturb both of you?”

Bai Jinfei said with a faint smile.

“Senior Brother, you must be joking. We’re just friends. I just got to know her.”

Lu Li shook his head.

“I understand, I understand. New friends. Your friendship will advance to another level in the future.”

Bai Jinfei blinked his eyes and revealed a smile.

Then, he took a step forward. He casually waved his hand and 2 jars of wine appeared in his hand.

“Come, this is the Immortal Wine I bought in the Thousand Ghosts City. Try It?” Bai Jinfei gave Lu Li a jar of wine and sat down.

It seemed that he had something to say.

“This… Thank you.”

Lu Li pondered for a moment, took the jar of wine, and sat down.

Pop…

Bai Jinfei flicked his finger and opened the lid.

Then, he opened his mouth. A stream of transparent liquid rose from the jar and entered his mouth.

Gulp.

After a moment, half of it was gone.

Lu Li followed him. He opened the lid and tried some of it.

Hmm… Lu Li felt like he had drunk Sprite added with chili. However, it tasted pretty good.

Suddenly, Bai Jinfei threw out a Black Jade Array.

Buzz!

It flew up and emitted black light. After that, it turned into a huge black barrier that covered Lu Li and Bai Jinfei.

Within the barrier, there were a few silver stars that were emitting fluorescent light, illuminating the surroundings.

“Junior Brother, you’ve gotten into big trouble this time!”

Bai Jinfei’s expression turned serious, and his words were shocking.

“What do you mean by that, Senior Brother?”

Lu Li’s expression didn’t change when he heard this.

“You killed Li Jing’s younger brother. Li Jing will definitely find someone to take revenge on you! He’s Hell Master’s last disciple, and he’s well known among the disciples. He’s second only to Lu He!”

Bai Jinfei said with a solemn face.

“Oh? Please tell me more about him, Senior Brother.”

Lu Li took another sip of wine.

He was still not very clear about the situation of the Netherworld Ghost sect. He did not even know what the sect Elder Master’s name was or what he looked like.

“In the entire sect, the sect Elder Master’s position is the highest. He is in the Void stage, followed by a group of Supreme Elders, all of whom are in the Immortal stage, followed by a group of Elders, who are in the Demigod and Jin Dan stage. Generally, the Elders with real power are in the Demigod stage. Those in the Jin Dan stage are only weaker. Below the Jin Dan stage are our group of foundation level true disciples, which are roughly divided into 5 factions.”

Bai Jinfei explained in a deep voice.

“5 factions. That’s a lot.”

Lu Li was slightly surprised.

That was a lot for 1 sect.

There were 5 factions of foundation level true disciples here?

“These 5 factions have a long history and are intertwined with each other. It’s difficult to explain them clearly in such a short time. Junior Brother, you only need to know that the one with the greatest influence right now is Lu He. She can break through to the Jin Dan stage at any time, but she’s holding back. She’s preparing to gather forces and continue to be the lead disciple for the next 10 years.”

Bai Jinfei’s words had a trace of admiration.

In an instant, Lu Li thought of something.

Could it be that what Lu He said just now was true? Was she really going to climb to the top step by step and become the first Female Demon Emperor of the Demonic sect?

“Senior Brother, who exactly is this Senior Sister Lu He? Is she the sect Elder Master’s daughter?”

Lu Li asked curiously.

“Not really. Lu He is just the disciple of a Demigod Elder. However, she’s good. She’s well-versed in all aspects, and her talent is exceptional. Even the sect Elder Master admires her quite a bit. So, he let her be the lead disciple of our Netherworld Ghost sect.”

Bai Jinfei explained.

“What about Li Jing?”

Lu Li asked again.

“Li Jing’s master is Hell Master. Above Hell Master is a Supreme Elder in the Immortal stage. In addition, he’s rich and generous, so many people have pledged allegiance to him. He wants to become the lead disciple too.”

After Bai Jinfei finished speaking, he finished the remaining half of the jar of wine.

“Lead disciple?”

Lu Li thought of something.

“It is also the representative of our Netherworld Ghost sect. In the Myriad Devils Mountain, the 10 great Demonic sects often exchange information. At that time, the one who shows up is the lead disciple. A random treasure given by the Supreme Elders can save decades or even hundreds of years of cultivation. Every year, the sect will bestow a lot of cultivation resources. The lead disciple will also receive guidance from the Supreme Elders or even the sect Elder Master. In short, there are many benefits!”

At the end of his speech, a trace of envy appeared on Bai Jinfei’s face.

That was the story!

No wonder Lu He was recruiting people everywhere. She even lowered her status to recruit a nobody like Lu Li.

Lu Li suddenly understood something.

It seemed that Li Jing was really chasing her closely.

“Junior Brother, you killed Li Jing’s younger brother. If Li Jing doesn’t do anything, he’ll be looked down upon by the others. His reputation will be greatly damaged as well. At that time, he won’t have the chance to be the lead disciple.”

Bai Jinfei waved his hand and took out another wine jar as he started to drink again.

“A trash like Li Jing is trying to steal a spirit ghost from me. How can he be the lead disciple? It’s better for me to be the lead disciple.”

Lu Li frowned as he scolded.

“Hahaha, Junior Brother, we’re the Demonic sect! Whoever is stronger and richer can be the boss!”

Bai Jinfei wiped his mouth and laughed.

“…”

However, Lu Li had nothing to say.

After pondering for a while, he asked, “So, I killed the wrong person? I’ve to give him the spirit ghost as well?”

“No.”

Bai Jinfei shook his head, and he was drunk as he explained, “You didn’t kill the wrong person! We’re the Demonic sect. We kill people to solve problems. There’s nothing to afraid of! Junior brother, you did a good job this time! You’re brave and smart! When Master finds out about it, he’ll definitely praise you!”

“Oh right, you didn’t agree to Lu He’s invitation, did you?”

Immediately after that, Bai Jinfei asked again.

“No, I didn’t.”

Lu Li shook his head.

“That’s great. Junior Brother, don’t you think that she likes you. In her eyes, all men in the world are dirty and ugly. She is just acting in front of you. She… is actually a lesbian.”

At the end of his sentence, Bai Jinfei sighed helplessly.

Lesbian?

She was a women, and she fancied woman?

Lu Li’s eyebrows twitched, and his felt interested. “Senior Brother, how did you know about it?”

“It’s a long story.”

Bai Jinfei shook his head and sighed.

His expression was a little depressed.

From Bai Jinfei’s look, it seemed to be a sad story.

Lu Li was just about to make Bai Jinfei tell the story to lift his mood.

Suddenly.

Boom!

A thunderous sound suddenly rang out.

Lu Li felt his blood, qi, and bones shake.

“What happened?”

Bai Jinfei was shocked too. He waved his hand and removed the formation.

Then, both of them were shocked to find that…

The sky collapsed!

The gloomy sky of the Demons Cave collapsed like a broken biscuit, falling down in large pieces!

Streaks of extremely powerful lightning tore apart the world like a sharp knife.

A vast and terrifying aura that could destroy everything approached them from all directions.

It was as if apocalypse had arrived!

Seeing this, Bai Jinfei’s expression changed, and he yelled, “Not good! It’s the Lightning Tribulation! The lightning tribulation has been brought forward! Master is about to advance to the Demigod stage!”
