With Little White's help, it was a piece of cake to find out the scouts.
Little White was fast. It was small so it could sneak into any place. Also, it had a good sense of smell. It found more than a dozen scouts at once.
Lu Li followed it closely. He would kill all the scouts as long as they were not from the Liu Family.
He carried his Mighty Heaven Halberd and treated the scouts as practice targets. Later on, he didn't even kill the scouts directly. He would only kill them after a long time with his Mighty Heaven Halberd.
After several hours, Lu Li came back at nightfall with his blood-stained halberd.
Patriarch Nine took action with his men. He built many Inhibition Formations on the island, ready for the war.
Patriarch Lu started to deploy hidden sentries to monitor every move on and off the island.
Patriarch Seven and Liu Yi arranged for the Liu Family's families to go to the Bamboo Hill where the Green Dwarfs were. There were many Inhibition Formations outside the Bamboo Hill. The Bamboo Hill was the safest place on the Blood Dragon Island.
Patriarch Nine spent the whole night with his men. The Inhibition Formations outside the island were ready.
The next day, they started to deploy more Inhibition Formations outside the Bamboo Hill. This war was very important for the Liu Family. They had to go all out.
All the Blood Caterpillar Grasses in the two valleys were destroyed. The blood in the blood pond was drained. All the disciples of the Liu Family went to the Bamboo Hill.
A huge cave was dug out in the belly of the Bamboo Hill. All the Liu Family members were hiding in the cave.
Lu Li sat with his legs crossed in his cabin. After he stored hundreds of Xuan Power pellets in his Spirit Sea, he waved his halberd in front of the cabin to make himself more familiar with it.
Liu Yi was standing next to him with 10 jade talismans in her hands.
The 10 Green Dwarfs were all under her control. Patriarch Seven and Patriarch Nine all had to fight, so they had no time to control the Green Dwarfs. She was nervous.
Seeing Lu Li waving his halberd leisurely, she somehow felt at ease. It seemed that as long as Lu Li was here, there was nothing to worry about.
"Lu Li."
Liu Yi was wearing a pink dress with pink flowers embroidered on it. Her hair was tied up in a rose bun, making her look like a flower fairy.
She stood there for a while and still couldn't help but ask, "If … the Liu Family is defeated this time, you can run away by yourself."
Lu Li put away his Mighty Heaven Halberd and asked Liu Yi, "Why are you so unconfident?"
Liu Yi bit her lips and said, "After all, the Blood Evil Island has been operating here for more than 10 years. I am worried.
I mean, if things go wrong, you should just run away. You've helped the Liu Family enough. You still need to find your sister. "
"Hehe!"
Lu Li smiled and looked to the southeast. After a while, he said, "Liu Yi, don't overthink.
We just have to try our best. The outcome is not important.
If the Liu Family is destroyed and we all die, it is God's will. There is nothing to say.
My sister once said, 'Once you step onto the path of martial arts, you will either soar to the sky and stand proudly at the peak, or death will be your final destination.'
"Your sister is really open-minded."
Liu Yi walked over and stood side by side with Lu Li. She recalled that night at the Wu Ling County and Lu Ling's calm face.
Recalling the scene where Lu Ling was burnt to a crisp, Liu Yi exclaimed, "Your sister is really an amazing woman. Lu Li, don't worry. Maybe your sister will become a big shot in the Palace of Goddess soon. She will come back to you before you go to her."
Speaking of Lu Ling, Lu Li naturally put on a smile. He nodded and said, "My sister will try her best to come back to me. As long as I am alive, I will try my best to find my sister.
She has suffered too much for me. I will definitely become strong. If anyone dares to make her suffer even the slightest bit, I will destroy that person! "
Liu Yi looked at Lu Li's determined face. Somehow, her heart was pounding. At this moment, she was very envious of Lu Ling.
If Lu Li could treat her like Lu Ling, then how happy she would be.
…
The night was coming.
The Blood Evil Island gave them a deadline of three days. However, none of the warriors of the Liu Family dared to sleep tonight. Night was the best time to launch a sneak attack.
Lu Li didn't sleep. He sat with his legs crossed and cultivated all night. At dawn, Patriarch Lu rushed back and shouted from the distance.
"Here they are!"
Patriarch Lu was the Master of the Hall of Scouts of the Liu Family. The meaning of the shout was clear. The enemy had come.
Even a lion would use all its strength to fight a rabbit!
Since the Blood Evil Brotherhood could stand on the Thousand-island Lake, they were not a bunch of good-for-nothings.
They didn't underestimate their enemies. They chose to attack at dawn because they wanted to take down the Liu Family at the lowest cost.
Outside of the Blood Dragon Island, 10 battleships came quietly. Hundreds of people were on each battleship.
Apart from the Patriarch and 500 warriors that were guarding the island, the rest of the Blood Evil Brotherhood came out in full force. There were 3000 warriors in total.
The 10 battleships didn't attack rashly. Instead, they spread out and quietly surrounded the entire Blood Dragon Island under the cover of the night.
Four warriors of the Soul Pond Realm were in charge of each side to prevent the warriors of the Liu Family from escaping.
On a battleship on the east side, Xue Chou was wearing a golden armor and an eye patch. The only eye he had left was filled with killing intent.
After the scouts made sure that the other battleships were in place, he waved his hand and said, "Pass down my order. Act according to the plan."
The scouts went to report. The 500 warriors on the three battleships got off and sneaked to the island under the cover of the night.
From the other three directions, 500 warriors dashed down from each side. In total, 2000 warriors were dispatched.
Xue Chou himself didn't move. One of the three warriors of the Soul Pond Realm came out and the other two stayed on the battleships.
As far as Xue Chou was concerned, the Liu Family had no warriors of the Soul Pond Realm and only more than 10 warriors of the Spirit Sea Realm. One warrior of the Soul Pond Realm and 2000 warriors were enough.
This time, they sent out so many warriors because they didn't want to let anyone of the Liu Family escape. They must get the secret recipe for growing Blood Caterpillar Fruits. Otherwise, two warriors of the Soul Pond Realm would be enough to wipe out the Liu Family.
Looking at the warriors swarming towards the Blood Dragon Island, Xue Chou put on a cruel smile. There was a glint of excitement in his one eye.
When he got the secret recipe for growing Blood Caterpillar Fruits of the Liu Family, the Blood Evil Brotherhood would rise quickly. Maybe in several years, it could become a Fourth-rank force.
"Ah —"
Miserable cries pierced through the night sky. The smile on Xue Chou's face froze. He shouted in rage, "What is going on?"
"Whoosh!"
A scout rushed over and reported, "Island Owner, there are many Inhibition Formations on the Blood Dragon Island. It is the Toxic Dragon Formation. Dozens of our men died and over 100 were wounded."
"Dozens?"
Xue Chou's mouth twitched. He was distressed. There were Inhibition Formations here, so there must be more in other directions.
If dozens died on one side, then there would be one or two hundred on the other four sides.
"Send my order. Retreat now!"
Xue Chou waved his hand and several scouts immediately went to deliver the order. They thought it would be easy to sneak attack at night. Little did they know that the Liu Family had already made arrangements. Since sneak attack was impossible, then they would just have to force their way in.
It was too dark now. Many Inhibition Formations could not be found. They had to wait for daybreak to take action.
The Blood Dragon Island was surrounded anyway. Not a single one of the Liu Family could escape.
When the scouts at the front retreated, Xue Chou thought about it and ordered again, "After daybreak, let Second Patriarch do it himself. Kill everyone except for Liu Yi and Liu Shanhe. Spare no one."
For the sake of prudence, Xue Chou decided to send out another powerful warrior of the Soul Pond Realm.
