Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

The Thousand-island Lake army soon made their landing. The 10,000 warriors left their battleships and rushed straight forward with great strength and vigor with the dozens Iron-armored Ships flying above them slowly.

Thirty miles to the northwest of the Cliff of Purgatory was a county that was controlled by a Third-rank Family. When the army passed through that county, warriors on the ground asked Bai Xi if they should attack the county. Bai Xi only said one thing, “No random killing!”

The Iron-armored Ships left in advance while the 10,000-warrior army happily entered the county. The Third-rank Family people dropped to their knees immediately. They only had four warriors of the Soul Pond Realm in total while there were so many Soul Pond Realm warriors in the Thousand-island Lake army…

Luckily, the army followed Bai Xi’s order. Since the Family of the county knelt, nobody was killed. Of course, the wealth and resources of the Family that had been accumulated over the years were looted. Even low level pellets were taken.

In addition to the Third-rank Family, the four or five Second-rank Families in the county were also raided. Not a single piece of Xuan Crystal was left for them.

The army crossed the county in a straight line, like locusts flying over. The Family Patriarchs tried to weep but failed to shed a tear. Everyone was reproaching the bandits from the Thousand-island Lake and the Yu Family for initiating this whole thing abusively.

The army moved on very quickly as warriors of the Soul Pond Realm boasts fast speed. They could cover three hundred miles in one day. Going on like this, they could reach the Yu Emperor City in a matter of more than a dozen days.

Soon, they came to another county. Bai Xi once again left in advance on the Iron-armored Ship, pretending that he hadn’t seen anything. The more than 10,000 warriors entered the county like locusts and looted the Families in the county as well.

There were so many messages sent back to the Heaven Martial City like snowflakes. The Families were complaining to the Zi Family about the crimes of the Thousand-island Lake, begging the Zi Family to crack down the bandits from the Thousand-island Lake.

The Zi Family didn’t glorify that demand with a response. They just issued a notice to protest against the unreasonable actions of the Thousand-island Lake and warned them against continuing in this way or else the Zi Family would do what…

The protest had no use whatsoever. At the Northern Desert, fists were everything. If talking would do any good, the Northern Desert wouldn’t be so messed up.

The scouts of the Thousand-island Lake set off again and went into hiding near the Yu Emperor City. No matter what the Yu Family was up to, as long as they stayed at the Yu Emperor City, the Family would be destroyed in the end.

The Thousand-island Lake didn’t commit any random killing, therefore, the Families of the Heaven Martial Kingdom didn’t all share the hatred. The looted Families had to suck on the tough luck. Who dared to court their deaths? The three Royal Kingdoms said nothing.

It would appear that the fate of the Yu Family was a done deal.

The Northern Desert was such a small place that there was no place for them to hide, unless the entire Yu Family fled to the Cyan Plains or the Central Plains. But according to the current situation, the Yu Family couldn’t flee even if they wanted to.

…

By noon, the Teleportation Formation at the God-down City lit up. A beautiful girl in an emerald dress showed up in it.

The girl was just sixteen years of age, tall and slim, and her face was breathtakingly pretty. Such an elegant and innocent air surrounded her. The tip of her nose raised in such a way that made her witty and the glow in her eyes were bright that people were afraid to look into her eyes. Many warriors lost their minds looking at her as if she was a fairy came from the heaven.

“Greetings Lady Bai, and my Lord.”

One of the Liu Family warrior finally came to his senses. He hurried down on his knees. Bai Xiashuang came with Chief Steward Bai. She was in such a good moon that she put on a rare smile and said, “Raise, and show me to Lu Li.”

The Liu Family warrior quickly took Bai Xiashuang to the Xu Family compound which was now called the Lu Mansion. At the same time, the warrior sent people to inform Lu Li.

Surprisingly, Lu Li came out to receive her in person, even though he was waiting in the yard. He soon saw Bai Xiashuang. With a grin he said, “Bai Xiashuang, weren’t you grounded? Did you sneak out?”

“Hmm!”

Bai Xiashuang was displeased. She pouted and said, “Lu Li, how dare you say that? We were grounded because of you. You? You didn’t go and ask for mercy for us to out auntie and you didn’t even go to check on us. This is not very nice of you.”

“Ha, ha, ha!”

Lu Li laughed and said, “I am sorry and I do apologize to you. Oh…Bai Xiashuang, why isn’t your sister here? Is she mad at me?”

“Isn’t it obvious?”

Bai Xiashuang strode in as she said, “My sister has a good temper but when she is angry at you, she will not talk to you. I have a bad temper but the best thing about me is that I will not hold a grudge. See, even you didn’t go to see me, I condescend to see you.”

“This is not some good quality,” Lu Li smiled and said, “this is heartless and you are so stupidly cute.”

“You are stupid!”

Bai Xiashuang glared at Lu Li. After taking a seat, she approached Lu Li and asked cryptically, “Lu Li, I hear that you are the son of Lu Renhuang. Is that true?”

Looking into her clear and pure eyes, Lu Li found himself beginning to like her personality. The first time he saw her, he found her off-putting. Then he found this girl was just outspoken. She would say anything on her mind without scheming and she was clear about what to love and what to hate. Even though she had the tempers of a spoiled girl, she was not bad in nature. To make a friend with her was not that exhausting.

Lu Li nodded and replied with a grin, “Yes, I am the disciple of the Lu Family at the Central Plains. What about it? Are you having feelings for me? Do you want to be married into the Lu Family?”

“Pff!”

Bai Xiashuang spat into air and said angrily, “Me having feelings for you? You wish. Do you think you are so wonderful just because you are a disciple of the Lu Family? I am to marry a warrior of the Human Sovereign Realm. Even if you are a disciple of the Lu Family, it will be a miracle if you can reach the Noble Lord Realm in this lifetime. What is more…your father made a huge sense at the Bai Emperor Mountain back in the days and almost slapped our forefather to death. He is now holding a grudge to the Lu Family. So…don’t you have some improper thoughts about me. You are not qualified yet.”

“Ha, ha, ha!”

Lu Li laughed again. He had grown more fondly of Bai Xiashuang’s personality. After a while, he asked, “My father almost slapped your forefather to death back in the days? Really?”

“Your father is at the Human Sovereign Realm. My forefather is powerful for sure and he could beat three Family Patriarchs of the Royal Families. But by the end of the day, he is only at the peak of Noble Lord Realm. It is understandable that my forefather would lose to your father since they were at different Realms.”

While Bai Xiashuang went on, she realized that she was speaking too highly of others and not of her Family. She waved her hand and said, “Let it go. Lu Li, is anything fun at the God-down Island? I am smothered at the Bai Emperor Mountain.”

“Ha, ha!”

Lu Li smiled without answering. He kept thinking about Lu Renhuang.

Ming Yu said that Lu Li’s father had a deal with the Old Man of Heaven Prison. It would appear that the treaty was signed under coercion. Lu Renhuang almost killed the Old Man of Heaven Prison over Ming Yu.

After a while in deep thoughts, Lu Li said, “If you are too bored, you can live here for a few days. I will ask Liu Yi to show you around.”

“I will not live here. It will be bad for my good reputation.”

Bai Xiashuang’s ring lit up as she took out ten booklets. Throwing them onto the table, she said, “I am here to give you the Xuan Skills and establish a relationship with you. About that…Lu Li, do you think there is need to work on the relationship between us? When you are powerful enough, will you help us if the Bai Family is in trouble?”

Lu Li was speechless. The girl really was stupidly cute. Who would establish a relationship in this way?

“No!”

He thought about it carefully and said seriously, “Why should I care if the Bai Family is in trouble or not? Although…if you and your sister are in trouble, I will definitely lend a hand as long as I am capable.”

On hearing the first half of his sentence, Bai Xiashuang almost flew into rage. Her anger changed to happiness at the second half of Lu Li’s words. She let it all slide and smiled, “Lu Li, this is enough. Now off you go, I will go back to help my auntie with her business. You don’t have to see me out and don’t bother to go any further.”

Lu Li touched his nose and said, “I didn’t say I want to see you out…”
