Chapter 290: Re-emergence of Coffin of Dragon King

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

The Cloud Island was not far away from the Central Plains. It was only a journey of several hours, yet it would cost them another half a day from the border of the Central Plains to the Dan City.

Lu Li understood the situation at the northern side of the Central Plains after Du Ran’s explanation. Lu Li couldn’t do anything else but to fly to the Dan City and switch to the Iron-armored Ship at the City of Delicacy.

Lu Li told Du Ran that under no circumstances could his identity be revealed and that not even the Du Family could know. Nobody knew how far away they were from the Mystic Armor City. What if old enemies of Lu Renhuang came to him once his identity was leaked?

Du Ran at once promised that it could be done. Apart from him, Du Ren and some high-profile figures of the Du Family, he wouldn’t let anybody else know. They would go to the Dan City in a low-key way and then leave in a similar way.

Six hours later, there was an open land in front of them. After going into that place, Lu Li suddenly felt air was fresher.

“Well?”

Lu Li walked out from the cabin, looked into the south and tried to sense it with his eyes closed. After a while, he opened his eyes and asked Du Ran, “Lord Du, the Xuan Qi here is much more profound.”

“Yes!”

Du Ran nodded and said, “It is twice as profound as at the Northern Desert. The space is here three times as stable as there. Warriors’ speeds are slowed down here as well. You can try.”

“Oh?”

Lu Li was curious. He leaped forward on the deck. He tried his Apparition Xuan Skill and the deck was filled with shadows he made.

“It is true…”

Lu Li re-emerged in front of everyone. He frowned as he was not used to his speed two or three times slower.

“Whoosh!”

Ming Yu flew out of the Iron-armored Ship, landed on the ground and then leaped to the mountains in the distance. Later, he released his Bead of Life and flew back.

“It is twice as slow.”

Ming Yu nodded and said coldly. Yu Huashen did the same thing, not because he didn’t trust others, but because he needed to get used to the situation at the Central Plains. If there was going to be a fight, he could quickly adjust to the situation so that he could put all his power into play.

Yu Huashen came back after a while and nodded in agreement. Lu Li was almost recovered. They were going to arrive at the Dan City in no time so Lu Li stayed on the deck to enjoy the view instead of going into the cabin.

Du Lun went back inside after a while. He clearly was a playboy, proud and arrogant and full of himself. But he was qualified to do so. He appeared to be very young. He must only be at his early twenties, but he was already at the peak of the Fate Wheel Realm. He must be some talented genius of the Du Family. It was not hard to understand that he disdained Lu Li, a warrior that had just reached the Soul Pond Realm.

Granted, Lu Li was only 16 but he had a steady character. His mindset was different from average young men as well. He didn’t mind Du Lun’s actions a bit. He stood on the deck, gazed into the distance, thinking about the promises entailed in his future.

Going back to the Lu Family, finding his origin and meeting his paternal grandpa? Then he could ask powerful warriors of the Lu Family to save his parents and get Lu Ling back? On the thought of family reunion and meeting the parents that he never saw, Lu Li was filled with excitement.

Under the influence of Lu Ling, Lu Li never blamed his parents. Later on, when he learned that his father jumped into the Icy Abyss with an effort to save his mother, Lu Li actually was proud that he had a father like this.

“Um, there is a city? Is that Dan City?”

After a while, Lu Li saw a huge city zooming in from afar. He turned to Du Ran in surprise and the later explained, “This is Yun County, just a simple county.”

“County…”

Lu Li and Ming Yu blinked. The county was larger than a region city at the Northern Desert. It was as big as the Heaven Martial City. Then how large would the 12 major cities of the Central Plains be?

“Young Master Lu, do you want to hang out in the city?”

Du Ran asked. Lu Li was in no such mood. He shook his head. Du Ran controlled the Iron-armored Ship to turn sideways and passed the county quietly.

After that, Du Ran added, “Young Master Lu, we have tribes, counties, prefectural cites, region cities and major cities. There are only 12 major cities and much more region cities. Of course… a force that can occupy a region city must be over the sixth rank.”

“Oh, I see!”

There was the addition prefectural cities. Apart from that, the pattern was similar to that of the Northern Desert. The Central Plains was too large which was why there was the structure of prefectural cities.

Flying forward for another four hours, the Iron-armored Ship passed many tribes, counties and one prefectural city.

They ran into many other Iron-armored Ships on their way. At the Northern Desert, Iron-armored Ship was rare but not so much as the Central Plains. Lu Li even saw a tribe soaring into the sky. That tribe was very big with a population of at least hundreds of thousands…

“Young Master Lu, don’t belittle the tribes!”

After they passed another tribe, Du Ran said, “Central Plains has many special races. They interacted rarely with the outside world and they prefer to live in the tribes by themselves. Sometimes, in a tribe with a population of tens of thousands, the tribe leader can be at the Human Sovereign Realm and more than a dozen warriors at the Noble Lord Realm…”

“Eh?”

Lu Li and the other two were taken by surprise. Special races had unique ways and skills which made them the most difficult to deal with. For example, the Cyan Phoenix Race had horrifying speed and the Mammoth Race had most powerful defense abilities. To offend such races would be more catastrophic than offending some big families.

“Whoosh~” “Whoosh~”

Suddenly, from the east came some loud noises. Then a few Iron-armored Ships flew out. Du Ran looked over, shocked. He murmured in confusion, “The Qin Family? What are they doing here?”

“Whoosh—”

From the east came another two noises. Then two black dots zoomed in. Yu Huashen and Ming Yu were ready to fight as they found the two men coming were at the Noble Lord Realm.

Two streaks of psychic power came and vanished. The two Noble Lord Realm warriors made a turn and flew to the west.

“Qin Gang? Qin Yu?”

Du Ran was even more curious. They were at the territory of the Du Family. Normally, warriors of the Qin Family wouldn’t be here.

“Boom!”

Three hundred miles to the west, a huge signal detonator exploded in midair. Du Ran changed his expressions and shouted, “That is an emergency signal for help of our Du Family. What is going on?”

Normally, this kind of signal detonator wouldn’t be used. When it happened, then there must be something grave going on. Du Family warriors must go over when they saw this.

Du Ran was wrestling. Lu Li was here. His mission was to get Lu Li to the Dan City. What if something happened when he took Lu Li over? On the other hand, Du Ran was worried since it was a rescue signal.

Lu Li thought about it and said, “Lord Du, go over and check it out. What can happen at your territory? Maybe we just don’t get too close.”

“Okay!”

Du Ran pondered about it and he believed that nothing could go wrong at the territory of the Du Family. He immediately controlled the Iron-armored Ship to fly over to the west in top speed.

The Iron-armored Ship was fast. In the time of two incense sticks to burn, they had crossed 300 miles. Before they arrived at the spot where the signal detonator exploded, two men flew up. Du Ran looked towards them and said, “They are scouts of our family.”

Two warriors of the Fate Wheel Realm flew up, got down on one knee and said, “Patriarch Twelve, Lords.”

“What is going on? Why did you use the emergency signal?” Asked Du Ran.

One of the scout replied, “There is a huge golden coffin in the mountains over there. On the coffin, there is a weapon of the Holy Grade. There must be some valued treasures in there. Qin Family warriors found it first and now they are trying to take it. So we called all the powerful warriors of our family here to fight for it.”

“Golden coffin? There is a weapon of the Holy Grade?”

Lu Li’s eyes lit up and he was stunned. Could it be the Coffin of Dragon King that flew away from the Tomb of the Dragon King?
