Chapter 29

"Roar!"

He swung the battle saber in the air, playing with it for a while, becoming increasingly excited. This battle saber was definitely a high-level mystic weapon in the past, made of extraordinary materials. Even when Lu Li reached out to touch it, he could feel a bone-chilling cold.

"Sky麟? Sky麟 Saber!"

Lu Li saw two characters on the hilt, further confirming the saber's extraordinary nature. Only mystic weapons of the Earth Rank could be named; human rank mystic weapons did not have the right to be named.

"What a pity..."

Lu Li looked at the broken blade and sighed slightly. If this mystic weapon were not damaged, it would certainly greatly enhance a warrior's combat power, increasing it by more than 30-40%.

"But if it weren't broken, it wouldn't be here. This one will do!"

Lu Li walked out with the one-meter-long broken saber, bowing to the old man and said, "Sir, can I exchange this broken saber? I'll give you all these gold leaves."

"Sky麟 Saber?"

The old man glanced at the hilt and sneered, "Boy, this Sky麟 Saber is an Earth Rank mystic weapon, used by the previous clan leader. Even though it's broken, how could you possibly exchange it? Not even a hundred gold leaves, even a hundred thousand gold leaves couldn't exchange it. Put it back."

"A hundred thousand?"

Lu Li's mouth opened wide. This broken saber was actually so valuable? A hundred thousand gold leaves could pile up into a small mountain. How many beasts would he need to hunt to get that much?

"Put it back?"

Lu Li was somewhat reluctant. This saber weighed over two thousand pounds and was made of very special materials, likely unbreakable by ordinary mystic weapons. With this saber, his combat power would increase by at least a few levels. If he had this saber in the battle with the Dilong tribe, he could have killed one person with one strike, and Di Huo wouldn't have had a chance to escape.

He bowed to the old man, pleading, "Sir, I really need this saber. What conditions do you need? I can owe you and pay back later, even a hundred thousand gold leaves I can pay back."

"No!"

The old man said sternly, "Rules are rules. If you keep pestering, I'll throw you out."

Lu Li gritted his teeth and bowed, "Sir, please, any conditions are negotiable, I just need this saber."

"You want this saber, it's simple!"

At that moment, a pleasant female voice came from outside, and a purple figure pushed the door open, looking at Lu Li and said, "Just join the outer hall of the family, and not only this broken saber, but better weapons can be granted to you by the family."

"Miss Yi..."

Lu Li looked up at the purple-robed woman and smiled bitterly. Liu Yi had come, offering him good weapons, but the condition was something he couldn't accept.

"Lu Li!"

Liu Yi walked over, twisting her slender waist, and said seriously, "Your talent is extraordinary. Just join the outer hall of the Liu family, and I will have the family fully cultivate you. You will have whatever you need—pills, mystic techniques, weapons. In a few years, you will definitely become a Sea of Gods realm powerhouse, and even... you might step into the Soul Pond realm. At that time, you will be one of the top powerhouses in Wuling City, and the Liu family will give you sufficient power and status. Even if you want to marry a direct descendant of the family, it's not impossible."

The conditions Liu Yi offered were very tempting, even the possibility of becoming a son-in-law of the Liu family. This was a huge temptation for ordinary warriors, as the Liu family was the dominant force in Wuling City. Becoming a son-in-law of the Liu family would be a leap to the top.

"Sorry..."

Lu Li smiled bitterly and shook his head. Lu Ling's words were very clear. Even if it were a direct descendant of the Liu family, or even this beautiful and noble Miss Yi, he wouldn't be swayed.

"Then forget it!"

Liu Yi's face turned somewhat gloomy. She looked at the broken saber in Lu Li's hand and asked, "You really like this saber? This saber is actually useless now. It can't be repaired once broken, and it's no longer a mystic weapon. You can't infuse mystic power into it, and you can't release mystic techniques."

Lu Li said firmly, "I don't care if it's a mystic weapon or not. I just like this saber. Miss Yi, can you help me this time? I, Lu Li, will be forever grateful and will repay you with my life."

Looking into Lu Li's burning eyes, Liu Yi remembered the scene when they were attacked by the Red Phosphorus Eagle, and Lu Li charged forward with a wooden stick. She pondered for a moment and said, "Old He, I'll help him exchange this saber. How many contribution points are needed? Deduct it from mine."

Liu Yi took out a token, and the gray-haired old man curiously glanced at Lu Li, then took the token and infused mystic power into it. The "Inner" character on Liu Yi's token lit up, followed by a row of numbers, but the numbers quickly changed, decreasing by a hundred.

Lu Li curiously asked, "What is this?"

Liu Yi explained, "These numbers are contribution points. In any family, you earn contribution points by doing tasks, fighting, and completing missions for the family. If you join the outer hall, you get ten contribution points for free each month. The guest hall also has it, but only one point per month. With contribution points, you can exchange for weapons, pills, mystic techniques, and even the ownership of the tribal town."

"Oh, I see!"

Lu Li suddenly understood. It seemed that the Liu family guards patrolling the coffin also had contribution points. These large families were quite fair and just. Effort, work, and bloodshed all earned contribution points, which could be exchanged for various good things.

"Alright, go back. You're leaving for the Ice Abyss tomorrow morning." Seeing that persuasion was ineffective, Liu Yi seemed to lose interest in the conversation and turned to leave.

Lu Li, holding the Sky麟 Saber, walked excitedly to the guest hall. When he returned, Cheng Qu saw Lu Li carrying the Sky麟 Saber and walked over with a look of surprise. Upon learning that Liu Yi had helped him exchange it, Cheng Qu looked at Lu Li with a strange gaze and said, "Boy, not bad. Miss Yi is the pearl of Wuling City, the undisputed first lady of the Liu family, who can break through to the Sea of Gods realm at any time. If you can win her over, you will definitely rise to prominence."

Lu Li blushed, not knowing how to respond. Cheng Qu laughed and left. Lu Li walked into his small courtyard, where Lu Ling was sitting. She must have heard his conversation with Cheng Qu and teased, "Lu Li, which Miss Yi do you fancy? This lady is not bad, her appearance is passable, and she can barely match you. Of course... being your main wife is impossible. Lu Li, remember, your main wife must be from a noble family, at least a fifth-rank royal family's main daughter, to be worthy of you!"

"Here we go again..."

Lu Li rolled his eyes. Lu Ling always spoke in half-truths, never telling him the full story. If these words weren't from Lu Ling, he would have slapped the person to wake them up.

He closed the outer courtyard door and immediately caressed the battle saber in his hand with burning eyes. Then he gathered mystic power in his right hand, feeling a significant increase in strength. He swung the Sky麟 Saber.

"Whoosh whoosh~"

His saber movements became faster, and the air whistled. He became more and more excited, moving around the courtyard, stirring up dust that made Lu Ling quickly retreat into the room.

"Great!"

After practicing for a while, Lu Li raised his saber and stopped, his eyes shining with excitement, his face flushed, and he was immersed in joy. He turned to Lu Ling, who was standing at the door, and grinned, "Sister, with this saber, I have the confidence to face a peak Black Tortoise realm warrior!"

Lu Ling walked out and handed him a black crossbow, smiling faintly, "Add this life-taking crossbow, and you should be invincible below the Sea of Gods realm. Remember, no matter who it is, if they are your enemy, show no mercy. Kill them first!"
