Chapter 14 The Anger of Cai Wei

Li Luo nodded, and then he didn't say much more on this topic. After chatting with Cai Wei for a while to warm up their feelings, he took his leave. Cai Wei watched his departing figure, lost in thought for a moment. She pondered that the young master actually had a decent personality; he was gentle and not arrogant, and he was also handsome. Surely, in the future, he would not fall short in appearance compared to his father, Li Tai Xuan, who once captured the hearts of countless noble ladies in the Great Xia Kingdom. From this perspective, he was quite compatible with Jiang Qing'e. The only flaw was his innate empty phase issue. In this world, regardless of how much wealth and power one possesses, everything ultimately rests upon strength. It was like the Luo Lan Mansion; when Li Tai Xuan and Dan Tai Lan were still around, it was one of the five great mansions of the Great Xia Kingdom, radiant and untouchable. But once these two pillars disappeared, the brilliance of the Luo Lan Mansion began to fade, becoming precarious. With Jiang Qing'e's talent, her future must be boundless, and it was likely that she would break the record for the youngest to reach the Marquis realm in the Great Xia Kingdom. If that really happened, her engagement with Li Luo might become a burden that hindered her. Cai Wei and Jiang Qing'e shared a deep friendship and knew that she might not have such a cold nature, but she feared that when the time came, it would be Li Luo who couldn't bear the various pressures. However, she had heard Li Luo mention earlier that the two mansion lords had left behind secret methods, which might be able to resolve his innate empty phase flaw. If that were true, it could slightly bridge the distance between the two. Yet, there was still a long road ahead. As Jiang Qing'e's friend, and having spent years in the royal city where talents converged, Cai Wei knew all too well how much attention Jiang Qing'e attracted there, as well as how many top talents admired her. Compared to that place, Nan Feng City was truly just a small town. With thoughts swirling in her mind, Cai Wei eventually suppressed them all, got up, and called for someone to prepare the items Li Luo had requested. After half a day, everything Li Luo needed was in hand. After marveling at Cai Wei's efficiency, he grabbed two boxes of Spirit Water Wonder and headed straight for the loft. In the remaining days of his break, Li Luo dedicated all his time to cultivating his elemental strength and improving his elemental affinity rank. Previously, Li Luo's elemental strength had risen from three seals to four seals in just two days, largely due to his prior accumulation, allowing for rapid progress. However, the transition from four seals to five seals would take a bit longer. Nevertheless, this 'slow' was only relative to the previous stage. On the last day of his vacation, Li Luo's elemental strength finally made further progress, truly stepping into the five-seal level. Besides the enhancement of his elemental strength, his fourth-grade 'Water Light Element', after consuming the last fourth-grade Spirit Water Wonder, completed its first advancement and progressed to the fifth grade. Thus, Li Luo's week-long vacation came to an end. On a clear morning, Li Luo stepped out of the old residence, radiating a brilliant smile under the sunlight. This week had undoubtedly been a transformative period for him; the once empty phase boy had begun to reverse his fate. He stood at the door, gazing in the direction Jiang Qing'e had left a week ago, and let out a deep breath. "Holy Mystery Star Academy, I will definitely go there." (Sorry for the delay, I went to get a haircut, and I'm almost as handsome as Li Luo, but unfortunately, you can't see it.) (End of this chapter)
