Chapter 119: Mighty Heaven Halberd
Inside a tasteful small side chamber in the Heaven Prison Chamber of Commerce.
Madam Yan was reading some materials when Chief Steward Bai entered in a hurry and whispered to her, "Madam, information came from the God-down Island that Blood Evil Island is going to attack Blood Dragon Island."
"Okay, I see."
Madam Yan continued to read without even raising her head. Chief Steward Bai frowned. He looked at Madam Yan for a bit and asked in a soft voice again, "Madam, should we send someone to oversee the matter?"
Madam Yan looked up, glared at Chief Steward Bai and scolded him, "Have you forgotten the rule set down by our Forefather? The Bai Family cannot interfere in any conflicts between forces in the Thousand-island Lake. We cannot meddle unless there is a slaughtering of civilians."
Chief Steward Bai touched his nose embarrassedly and muttered, "Didn’t you say Lu Li was the disciple of the Lu Family? I am worried that if Lu Li died at the Thousand-island Lake, the Lu Family would turn here into a bloodbath if they knew…"
Chief Steward Bai’s concern was not irrational. If Lu Li really was the disciple of the immediate Lu Family and he died at the Thousand-island Lake, the place would be wiped out by the Lu Family once they knew, and the Bai Family would be in trouble as well.
Madam Yan waved her hand and said, "Rules are rules. No matter how powerful the Lu Family is, they must listen to reasons. Are there any words on Lu Li’s head saying he is a disciple of the Lu Family? Also… when did I say for sure that he is a disciple of the Lu Family? There are many doubtful things to be proven."
Lu Li went to the Temple but failed to awaken the Bloodline of the Lu Family. That was the most uncertain point. If Lu Renhuang was that one of the Lu Family in the Central Plains, how could Lu Li not awaken the King Kong Bloodline?
Chief Steward Bai nodded then tried to ask, "Then, we will leave it alone?"
Madam Yan lowered her head to read and did not answer. After a moment, she threw a copy of a file to Chief Steward Bai and said, "Contact this person. Have someone send him a message that Lu Li is Lu Renhuang’s son."
Chief Steward Bai took the file over and browsed through. He said with a trace of astonishment in his eyes, "Him? That’s not right… Madam, didn’t you say Lu Li’s identity was not certain yet? Plus, is there any significance of telling this man?"
"Tell him and we can find out if Lu Li is Lu Renhuang’s son."
Madam Yan smiled mysteriously. She waved her hand and said, "You don’t have to worry about anything else. Just let me know when the war breaks out."
"That man is stubborn and intractable. He comes and goes freely. He has both good and evil sides in him. Will he mind this matter?"
Chief Steward Bai wanted to ask something more, but seeing Madam Yan was reading the files, he decided to leave it alone. Madam Yan was the most prestigious figure in the younger generation of the Bai Family. She naturally had reasons for doing this. Chief Steward Bai only had to implement.
As soon as the announcement of the Blood Evil Island came out, the Blood Evil Island was filled with an atmosphere of war. Disciples of the Liu Family were stressed.
The war was inevitable. Even if the Liu Family were to leave the Blood Dragon Island now, they would still be hunted down. The reason was that it was not the Blood Dragon Island that the Blood Evil Island sought after, but Liu Family’s secret prescription of growing Blood Caterpillar Fruits.
If the Liu Family could win this, it could finally gain a firm foothold at the Thousand-island Lake. With their Blood Caterpillar Fruits, the Liu Family could develop and become stronger soon and restore their past glory.
If, however, the Liu Family lost, there could only be two results, either the Liu Family would be annexed by the B
lood Evil Island or they would suffer complete destruction. Whichever it was, there would be no more Liu Family. The fate awaiting Lu Li and Liu Yi would be miserable.
Therefore, Patriarch Seven and the rest had been actively preparing for the war. Patriarch Seven went to the God-down Island in person and brought with him 30,000 Xuan Crystals in one trip to give to two Patriarchs of the Xu Family. He wanted to try to persuade the Xu Family to offer some help, or at least, take a neutral stance.
Patriarch Nine also went to the God-down Island with tens of thousands of Xuan Crystals to buy various pellets. He planned to purchase some special pellets which could be of surprising use in the battle. He also planned to buy some special Inhibition Formations to assist them in the war.
Lu Li and Liu Yi also came secretly. Lu Li had made it to the middle stage of the Spirit Sea Realm at the cost of dozens of precious Heaven Xuan Pellet, though.
Lu Li had thought he had used too many Heaven Xuan Pellets, but on questioning Liu Yi, he realized he didn’t take many. Three Patriarchs had consumed several hundred of Heaven Xuan Pellets each in order to make it to the latter stage of the Spirit Sea Realm…
