Chapter 532: Chapter 411: Warning from the Rules (First Update)
Inside the Sky-reaching Giant Tower, in this magnificent hall, the spherical image showed in great detail the beginning and end of the war at "Black and White City". In the hall, only two people were entitled to sit.
These two individuals were the old man who sat upon the Lizard Dragon backed throne, with white eyebrows, looking like a long-lived elder depicted in a mural, and a stunningly beautiful woman, sitting across on a wide chair lined with thick golden fox fur.
The woman’s beauty was unparalleled, bearing some resemblance to Lei Leian. Seemingly in her thirties, her whole being radiated astonishing mature charm and unmatched noble temperament. Her brilliance was so captivating that one dare not look directly at her.
This woman was Lei Leian’s mother, who crossed the realms and came to this world.
Standing beside this stunning woman was a middle-aged beauty holding a Crystal Scepter. This beauty was none other than Feng Ming, the aunt that Lei Leian had sought in the "Undersea Palace".
And at both sides of the Lizard Dragon backed throne sat in front of the mural, stood two other figures.
The man on the left was a middle-aged man wearing a splendid robe. His phoenix-like eyes carried a significant aura, and in his right hand, he held a short king’s staff. At present, he was studying the images in the center sphere, frowning slightly, a solemn expression on his face, seemingly worried.
On the right of the throne stood a young man dressed in a bright red robe.
This young man was about twenty-six or seven. His face was handsome, his figure tall and upright. The bright red robe worn on his body didn’t seem odd at all; instead, it added an extra sense of vigor to his elegant demeanor. He stood there like a flame, making people feel as if there was a strong life force bubbling within him, making him extraordinarily outstanding. Even in this main hall, he didn’t seem overshadowed by others but rather exceptionally noticeable.
When the old man with white eyebrows at the top saw him, there was occasional appreciation in his eyes.
This young man in a red robe stood there neither arrogantly nor humbly, holding a red jade scepter in his right hand. This scepter seemed to symbolize his status, not inferior to the middle-aged beauty, Feng Ming.
Aside from these individuals, on both sides of the hall stood a row of men and women in white robes. All of them were silent, not daring to divert their gaze. However, each emanated a profound aura.
"It’s indeed unexpected. Who would have thought that the boy..." When the image from the sphere stopped, the stunningly beautiful woman sitting on the golden fox fur chair couldn’t help but chuckle softly. Apparently, the war between the "Black and White City" and the "Ice City" had surprised her as well. The mastermind behind this spectacle, Su Yu, had finally caused this beautiful woman to revise her opinion of him, feeling somewhat taken aback.
It wasn’t just anyone who could deceive such terrifying entities and set up such a scheme. Even the stunningly beautiful woman couldn’t help but praise him.
"Feng Ya, allotting the ’Sky Main City’ to Lei Leian was her ancestor’s will. Are you really going to strip her of her right to inherit the ’Sky Main City’?" In the upper seat, the old man with white eyebrows asked the beautiful woman while holding his bronze crutch.
The stunningly beautiful woman Feng Ya sighed slightly, "Originally, I wanted to use this opportunity to refine Lei Leian a bit. However, it seems like man’s calculations fall short of those of heaven. It was unexpected that the boy would be so remarkable. With such means, let everything follow its natural course. Too much interference would seem unpleasant." Feng Ya’s smile suggested that she had agreed to let Lei Leian inherit the "Sky Main City".
"Lei Leian’s inheritance of the ’Sky Main City’ is indeed a rare grand event, Aunt Feng Ya, would you attend this ceremony?" The young man in the red robe bowed slightly, shooting a sudden question.
The middle-aged man in the grand robe on the other side scoffed, "It is rude for you to interrupt when your elders are speaking!"
The young man in the red robe kneeled down promptly, respectfully apologizing, "I beg your pardon for my rudeness, Aunt Feng Ya."
The beautiful woman Feng Ya smiled and said, "Stand up." With a slight wave of her hand, the man in the red robe felt an irresistible force instantly lifting him up, leaving him no chance to resist. The man’s heart trembled with awe.
Then, Feng Ya frowned at the handsome middle-aged man, "We are all family. Why are you being so formal? Speaking of which, Lei Leian has had your support these years. I should be thanking you."
The elderly man at the upper end chuckled, "Just as Feng Ya said, we are all family. No need for formal thank you. And, Feng Ya, what do you think of this lad, Lance?"
While speaking, he pointed his bronze crutch towards Lance, the young man in the red robe who was just assisted up by Feng Ya.
Feng Ya smiled gently and said, "Indeed, at such a young age, he can already manage a Main City. With more time, I’m sure he will step beyond this world."
The red-robed youth Lance hurriedly bowed, "Thank you for the compliment, Aunt Feng Ya."
The stunningly beautiful woman chuckled, evidently quite fond of the red-robed youth, Lance.
Upon seeing this, the elder on the throne nodded after a moment of thought, then smilingly asked, "Speaking of which, Lei Leian is also no longer young. Our family has been diminishing in numbers, and we can only hope that these youngsters can carry on the bloodline. Feng Ya, what do you think of Lance for our Lei Leian?"
The beautiful woman was slightly taken aback. Meanwhile, the red-robed youth, Lance, had already kneeled before her, his face filled with sincerity as he implored, "Lance and Sister Lei Leian grew up together. I have loved Lei Leian since I was young. Now, I have accomplished a little bit, and I hope Aunt Feng Ya will fulfill our wishes. Like Aunt Feng Ya and Uncle Lei, I aspire to be able to leave this world hand in hand with Lei Leian."
The beautiful woman first blinked in surprise, then burst into laughter and whispered, "To be like me and your Uncle Lei..." A blush spread across her face, as if recalling a distant memory. As she looked at the young man kneeling in front of her, she found him to be exceptionally outstanding, and found herself liking him quite a bit.
She nodded slightly, and said, "Get up. As her mother, I cannot decide who Lei Leian spends her life with. But, I don’t oppose you courting her. As long as Lei Leian also likes you, we will not stand in your way. If indeed you two end up together, I think your Uncle Lei and I will return to congratulate you."
The red-robed youth Lance on the floor was delighted and couldn’t help but shout, "Thank you, Aunt Feng Ya." The old man on the throne with white brows and the middle-aged stern man next to him both had smiles on their faces.
Chuckling, the stunningly beautiful woman said, "You can get up now. As I hadn’t prepared any gifts for you, I feel rather overwhelmed with all these bows. Even the Ancestor may never have received such treatment."
Lance replied with a smile, "My act of prostrating before Aunt Feng Ya is sincere. Since childhood, I have always known that two awe-inspiring heroes emerged from our clan, surpassing their progeniture and unmatched in the world. Today, I was finally able to meet one of them. I wonder if I will ever have the chance to meet the other."
The old man at the head laughed out loud, "This kid, it seems that you are sincere only when prostrating before Feng Ya and her husband, and insincere when bowing to me?"
Lance chuckled, "Bowing in front of the Ancestor is about rituals, while kneeling in front of Aunt Feng Ya and Uncle Lei is because they are my idols and what I aspire to be. Naturally, my genuflection is sincere."
The old man burst into laughter, shook his head, and sighed, "This boy, while your abilities may not have grown much, your tongue has gotten quite sharp. Feng Ya, speaking of which, you’re back. How come Ao Lei did not come back with you? I wanted him to give me, an old chap, some guidance and perhaps get a dose of his brilliance."
"Oh him..." Feng Ya gave a bitter smile. "Ao Lei only thinks about achieving immortality. You don’t yet know about his obsession with cultivation, do you? I think the only way to make him come back is if Lei Leian is really getting married. Right now, only our precious daughter Lei Leian can make him worry a bit."
Lance looked at her reverently and enviously, "I have heard that as soon as Sister Lei Leian was born, Uncle Lei extracted the Power of Rules from this world and sealed it within Lei Leian’s body. Being capable of extracting even the Power of Rules, Uncle Lei’s skills, I think, are matchless even amongst the gods."
The stunningly beautiful woman Feng Ya took a look at him, laughed and chided, "You’re just a kid who doesn’t know anything. Do you know how vast this world is that you can estimate it? Lei Leian’s everything is left to you from now on. I must go."
Everyone paused briefly, and then the old man at the top said, "You’re in such a rush to go? Aren’t you even staying for Lei Leian’s succession ceremony?"
She looked up towards the top of the hall and chuckled lightly, as if her gaze could penetrate the grand palace and gaze at the heavens, "I have been here long enough. The Power of Rules above the sky is already converging here. If I stay any longer, not just the Tower of Reaching Heaven, even this world might be destroyed by the Power of Rules."
The rest were startled, and the middle-aged stern man quickly lifted the scepter in his hand. A beam of light erupted from the scepter and hit the ceiling of the hall, which then became transparent. It was then that everyone noticed that the sky above was dark with clouds, amid which intermittent zapping noises resounded, making it appear awfully terrifying, as though a fearsome event was about to happen.
The stunning woman stood up, smiling, "The Rules are warning me, driving me out of this world. I don’t have Ao Lei’s ability to resist them. Everyone, I take my leave."
Next to her, the middle-aged beauty Feng Ming reluctantly asked, "Sister, aren’t you going to say goodbye to Lei Leian?"
A touch of unwillingness appeared in the eyes of the stunning woman, but she soon smiled and said, "No, I’d rather not make it harder to part." Saying so, she backed away with a smile. The old ancestor at the top of the room couldn’t help but stand up. (To be continued... For further reading, please visit www.qidian.com.
