In just an hour, Patriarch Lu had figured out the situation. Xue Chou and the others had all returned to the Blood Evil Island.
The result of the battle was out. Complete victory. Apart from the two Green Dwarfs that died in the end, the others didn't suffer too much loss.
The Liu Family lost more than 30 warriors and a Patriarch of the Spirit Sea Realm. Compared to the loss of the Blood Evil Island, it was not worth mentioning.
A group of Patriarchs gathered together to discuss how to fight the next battle.
The Patriarchs all agreed to Patriarch Seven's suggestion. They should pursue the Blood Evil Island and act according to circumstances.
Lu Li wanted to tell them not to advance rashly, but staying at the Blood Evil Island was not a solution either. He couldn't come up with a better plan after much deliberation, so he kept silent.
The time for releasing his Bloodline Skill had come to an end. He was very weak now, and he felt drowsy.
However, the situation was not clear. How could he fall asleep like this?
He had to hold on.
After some discussion, Patriarch Seven decided to bring all the warriors of the Spirit Sea Realm and some of the Xuan Wu Realm of the Liu Family and eight Green Dwarfs to the Blood Evil Island and act according to circumstances.
As the main force of the Liu Family, Lu Li was naturally asked to go with the others.
He couldn't disobey them. He made up his mind and followed them on two battleships towards the Blood Evil Island.
He sat in the cabin of the battleship with his eyes closed, recovering his physical and spiritual energy that he had consumed too much.
The Liu Family turned out in full force this time. All the warriors of the Spirit Sea Realm and more than half of the Xuan Wu Realm were dispatched.
Of course … more than half were less than 100. The number of warriors of the Liu Family was too few.
Even though there were only slightly more than 100 warriors in total, everyone of the Liu Family was excited. As long as the powerful warriors of the Blood Evil Brotherhood were eliminated, the Liu Family would be able to take control of the Blood Evil Island.
With such a large territory and Blood Caterpillar Grasses, the Liu Family could develop rapidly and gain a firm foothold at the Thousand-island Lake.
The Blood Evil Island was quiet!
When the two battleships arrived outside of the Blood Evil Island, they found nobody at the dock. All the battleships were gone.
They circled around the Blood Evil Island and didn't see a single scout of the Blood Evil Brotherhood …
They circled around the Blood Evil Island several times but still didn't see anybody. The Liu Family Patriarchs were a bit uneasy.
They had thought that they could attack or retreat at will outside of the island. Now, they found it difficult to advance or retreat.
Go in. The Blood Evil Island was their territory. The Blood Evil Brotherhood had one or two thousand warriors and three warriors of the Soul Pond Realm.
Who knew what would happen after they entered?
Retreat?
Everyone was indignant.
"Third Brother Lu, bring some men to investigate. Be careful."
In the end, the Seventh Elder gave the order to investigate the situation first.
Patriarch Lu set out with five of the best scouts of the Liu Family. They sneaked toward the Blood Evil Fortress from a small hill.
Everyone anchored the warship at the pier and quietly waited for the result of the investigation.
An hour later, a figure flew over from afar with a bitter expression.
"Third Brother Lu, what's going on?
Why are you the only one back? "
Patriarch Seven asked when the man got on the boat. Patriarch Lu, who had just returned, shook his head and sighed, "There are too many outsiders in the Blood Evil Castle. Their Chief Patriarch took action in person. If I hadn't run fast enough, I'm afraid I wouldn't have made it back."
"…"
Without investigating the situation, who would dare to act rashly?
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
Time passed by bit by bit. Two hours later, Xue Chou walked over with two warriors of the Soul Pond Realm and hundreds of people on the street by the dock.
"Retreat a thousand feet and prepare for battle!"
Patriarch Seven shouted. Everyone unsheathed their weapons and the battleship retreated quickly.
Patriarch Seven, Patriarch Nine and Liu Yi stood on the deck of the battleship. They looked at Xue Chou and the others who were walking over slowly with vigilance.
It had been almost four hours. Lu Li hadn't recovered yet, but he was not so tired now.
He didn't come out. He was still sitting in the cabin with his legs crossed.
Xue Chou and the two Patriarchs of the Soul Pond Realm didn't walk in the front. There were hundreds of people blocking their way. Clearly, they were afraid of sneak attacks from the Green Dwarfs.
On the open ground in front of the dock, Xue Chou waved his hand. Everyone stopped. Xue Chou stared at Patriarch Seven and shouted in a deep voice, "Brother Shanhe, we have taken in the Liu Family. Is this how you treat us?"
Patriarch Seven was embarrassed. There was no right or wrong in this.
The Liu Family was ungrateful, but the Blood Evil Island was also up to no good. From the beginning, they wanted to annex the Liu Family. Xue Buhui almost raped Liu Yi. Seeing that the Liu Family could grow high-quality Blood Caterpillar Fruits, the Blood Evil Island started a war at once …
Therefore, it was not wrong to stand on either side. Both forces wanted to grow. In order not to be destroyed and to have greater development, any decision was right.
Patriarch Seven smiled embarrassedly. He cupped his fists and said, "Brother Xue, let's not talk about this. For the sake of the Liu Family, Shanhe was forced to do many things.
How about this?
You leave the Blood Evil Island, and I promise I will not be your enemy again. Also, I will give you one million Xuan Crystals a year. What do you think? "
"One million Xuan Crystals!"
Not only the Liu Family, but also the Blood Evil Island was in an uproar. The price offered by Patriarch Seven shocked many people. One million Xuan Crystals was not a small number even for the Blood Evil Island.
However, Liu Yi and the others thought about it. If the Liu Family could get the Blood Evil Island, how many high-quality Blood Caterpillar Fruits could they grow?
It would not be a problem to make several million Xuan Crystals a year. So what if they gave one million to the Blood Evil Brotherhood?
Xue Chou kept silent. After a while, he started to talk with the two Patriarchs again. After the time it took for three incense sticks to burn, Xue Chou turned around and said, "Brother Shanhe, how about this?
We will still give you the Blood Dragon Island. We can also give you the three nearby islands.
You give us one million Xuan Crystals a year. From now on, we will live in peace and mind our own business. "
Xue Chou seemed to be afraid of the Green Dwarfs. He didn't want to continue the war and wanted to make peace.
Patriarch Seven and Patriarch Nine looked at each other. Their eyes glowed.
As a matter of fact, they didn't want to continue the war either. The Liu Family needed time to develop. As long as they could stall for some time, the Liu Family could buy more Green Dwarfs.
They could use resources to produce a large batch of warriors of the Spirit Sea Realm. The Liu Family could develop and eventually gain a firm foothold at the Thousand-island Lake.
Patriarch Seven and the other Patriarchs discussed for a while. Finally, Patriarch Seven made up his mind. He looked at Xue Chou and said, "Brother Xue, lend us the Blood Evil Island for one year.
You can have the other islands. Every month, we will give you 100,000 Xuan Crystals. In this way, both sides can develop quickly.
After one year, we will all leave the Blood Evil Island. We will go and fight for the other islands with magma.
We can also make a blood oath. If we break it, we will die a horrible death. "
Patriarch Seven's offer was sincere, which was beneficial to the Liu Family.
If the Blood Evil Island was given to the Liu Family for one year, the Liu Family could earn enough Xuan Crystals to buy dozens of Green Dwarfs. By then, they could easily conquer any island with magma.
As expected!
Xue Chou seemed to be tempted. Xue Chou's eyes flickered. He said he could think about it, but he needed to gather all the Patriarchs of the Family for a discussion. He asked the Liu Family to give him two hours.
Xue Chou went back with a group of people. The Patriarchs of the Liu Family were overjoyed. Their eyes were filled with passion.
All they could think about was how the Liu Family would develop after they got the Blood Evil Island, how to expand the farm and plant more Blood Caterpillar Fruits …
Liu Yi was excited. She immediately went into the cabin to share the good news with Lu Li.
Lu Li was in a better state of mind. He was silent after he heard Liu Yi's story. After thinking for the time it took for one incense stick to burn, he suddenly opened his eyes and shouted, "A bunch of idiots. You have been fooled. Xue Chou is just stalling."
