"Island Owner Lu?"
The disciples of the Liu Family were confused. When did Lu Li become the Island Owner?
Shouldn't the Family Patriarch Liu Yi be the Island Owner?
Patriarch Seven reacted quickly. Without hesitation, he waved his hand and said, "Someone, go and tell Island Owner Lu that the Island Owners of the Killers Island, the Devil Island and the Black Fox Island are here to see him."
Lu Li was a signboard. No matter what the relationship between him and Ming Yu was, at least the outside world would think that he was the Young Master of Ming Yu.
If Patriarch Seven didn't know how to make use of this identity, he would have lived his life in vain.
Patriarch Seven knew Lu Li's character. He never liked to fight for power or get involved in the business of the Liu Family. Even if Lu Li was the Island Owner, he wouldn't care about anything.
Patriarch Nine and the others came to their senses. Patriarch Seven winked at Patriarch Nine. The other Patriarchs started to send messages secretly, telling them that no information about Lu Li could be leaked. Otherwise, they would be killed.
As long as the Liu Family didn't leak the information, the outside world would think that Lu Li was the Young Master of Ming Yu.
Then the Blood Evil Island would be safe. Who dared to offend the Blood Evil Island at the risk of being hunted down by Ming Yu?
After a while, the messenger came back and said something to Patriarch Seven in a low voice.
Patriarch Seven looked at the messengers of the three islands indifferently and said, "Our Island Owner Lu said that he is treating his wounds and will not see any guests.
He will remember the kindness of the three islands. In the future, he will go to the three islands to thank you handsomely. "
The messenger's face turned pale. He cupped his fists and reported Lu Li's words. On the three battleships, the Island Owners of the three islands were all frightened.
Treating his wounds?
That day, Madman Lyu had smashed Lu Li, almost killing him.
Kindness?
Reward?
Clearly, he was being sarcastic.
The three Island Owners gathered together and had a discussion. Then they sent several messengers to the dock with six boxes of treasures. They said some nice words and left the treasures, saying that they were some medicines for Lu Li to treat his wounds.
The messengers also said that after the three Island Owners went back, they would find the rest of the elixirs and send them to the Blood Evil Island so that Lu Li could recover …
After Patriarch Seven heard the words of the messenger, he reluctantly asked someone to accept the gifts. He casually said some words, indicating that he would convey their words to Lu Li. As for what Lu Li would think, Patriarch Seven did not know.
The messengers went back. The three Island Owners were relieved. At least the Blood Evil Island accepted their gifts. There was still room for negotiation.
The three island masters thought for a moment, then personally went to the dock to persuade the Seventh Elder and the others.
Patriarch Seven reluctantly nodded and said that he would try his best to persuade Lu Li to let bygones be bygones and bury the hatchet.
The three island masters returned with uneasy hearts. The Seventh Elder had people bring the six chests back to have a look, and all of them were green with envy.
These six chests were filled with all kinds of precious elixirs and spiritual materials. There was even a chest filled with Mysterious Crystals …
The treasures in the six boxes were worth at least 300,000 Xuan Crystals.
Looking at the situation, the three Island Masters would even send gifts over. This was a free pick up!
Patriarch Seven summoned all the patriarchs and Liu Yi for a meeting. They unanimously approved Lu Li to be the new Island Owner of the Blood Evil Island.
When Liu Yi sent the news to Lu Li, he didn't say anything.
Guest Warrior or Island Owner meant the same to him. It was just a title. His status in the Liu Family was high to begin with.
Seeing Liu Yi's ardent eyes, Lu Li didn't have the heart to turn her down. He nodded and agreed.
However, he made it clear that he wouldn't care about anything at the Blood Evil Island. He was just a nominal leader.
Lu Li's reply actually made Patriarch Seven and the others happier. What they wanted was for Lu Li to stay out of everything. If he were to meddle in everything, they would be unhappy.
Without the threat from the outside, the remaining six patriarchs of the Liu Family gathered together and began to discuss the future development of the Liu Family.
First of all, powerful warriors. The Liu Family was in desperate need of powerful warriors to protect the Blood Evil Island.
Even though Ming Yu's reputation was there, he had left.
Lu Li didn't clearly state his relationship with Ming Yu. Therefore, the Liu Family's strength must be enhanced immediately.
To enhance their combat ability, the simplest and fastest way was to buy Green Dwarfs.
The items sent by the three island masters were worth 300,000 Xuan Crystals. All the valuables of the Blood Evil Island had been collected and counted. The wealth was amazing. There were 500,000 Xuan Crystals, and the treasures and Mystical Materials added together were worth two million Xuan Crystals.
Therefore …
The Liu Family was not short of Xuan Crystals. Each Green Dwarf was worth 50,000 Xuan Crystals. Patriarch Seven waved his hand and was ready to pay back the 400,000 Xuan Crystals he owed the Heaven Prison Chamber of Commerce and buy 10 more Green Dwarfs.
Including the five Green Dwarfs left in the Liu Family, there would be 15 Green Dwarfs in total. They wouldn't be afraid even if the three islands attacked together.
At the same time, Patriarch Seven was ready to bring hundreds of thousands of Xuan Crystals to the God-down Island so that the God-down Island would recognize the status of the Liu Family and become an affiliated force of the God-down Island.
As long as the God-down Island agreed, the Blood Evil Island would be completely stabilized.
On the other hand, all the aborigines of the Blood Evil Island could be summoned to the Liu Family warriors who could cultivate Xuan Energy. A large number of pellets would be used to help them enhance their combat abilities.
The number of warriors of the Liu Family was too few. They didn't have enough manpower.
…
After the discussion, the patriarchs of the Liu Family started to move. Liu Yi and a group of patriarchs brought numerous treasures to the branch of the Heaven Prison Chamber of Commerce at the God-down Island to sell.
After they got the Xuan Crystals, Liu Yi went to the Heaven Prison Island with a patriarch to find Chief Steward Bai.
Patriarch Seven went to the Xu Family, the Overlord of the God-down Island, with his injuries. He brought hundreds of thousands of Xuan Crystals to give to the Xu Family.
Unexpectedly —
Patriarchs of the Xu Family dared not to accept the Xuan Crystals. The Chief Patriarch of the Xu Family received Patriarch Seven in person and promised that from now on, the Blood Evil Island would be the territory of the Liu Family. Also, the Liu Family didn't have to pay any tribute. Patriarch Seven's attitude could not be better.
The Chief Patriarch of the Xu Family even kindly invited Lu Li to the island as a guest and conveyed the greetings from Xu Chen, the Island Owner of the God-down Island.
He also said that in a few days, when Lu Li's wounds were healed, he would send someone to offer his condolences …
Patriarch Seven was overjoyed. The Xu Family clearly knew about the fight at the Blood Evil Island and how Ming Yu knelt down.
There was only one Fifth-rank Force in the entire Thousand-island Lake, the Bai Family, the Old Man of Heaven Prison's Family.
There were eight other fourth-grade forces and the God-down Island was one of them.
Three warriors of the Soul Pond Realm would be a Third-rank force and three warriors of the Fate Wheel Realm would be a Fourth-rank force.
There were three warriors at the Fate Wheel Realm on the God-down Island. Island Owner Xu Chen was at the peak of the Fate Wheel Realm.
What realm was Ming Yu at?
Eternal Realm warrior ranked top 10 on the Warlord List of the Thousand-island Lake.
Even though there was a rumor many years ago that Xu Chen was about to reach the Eternal Realm, even if he did, how could he be a match for Ming Yu?
It was easy to explain why the Xu Family valued Lu Li so much.
Patriarch Seven put his mind at ease. With Lu Li's reputation, at least in the short term, the Blood Evil Island would be safe.
However …
When Liu Yi came back the next day, she brought back a piece of bad news — the Bai Family's attitude towards her was much colder than before. Previously, the Green Dwarfs only cost 40,000 Xuan Crystals, but this time, it was 50,000 Xuan Crystals. Also, it was another 50,000 Xuan Crystals for delivery.
"Is it because of Ming Yu?"
Patriarch Seven remembered the rumor that Ming Yu refused the solicitation of the Bai Family and indirectly caused a young lady of the Bai Family to commit suicide for love. Patriarch Seven felt uneasy.
The Bai Family was the Overlord of the Thousand-island Lake. If the Bai Family were to be offended, the Liu Family would find it difficult to move forward.
