Lu Li and the others sat in the pavilion near the dock for a while. More Island Owners arrived with their sons and daughters.
As soon as the Young Ladies arrived, they all looked at Xu Yaoyang with passion, wishing they could swallow him whole …
After the time it took for two incense sticks to burn, representatives of seven or eight forces arrived. Xu Yaoyang brought them to the God-down City on carriages in person.
The God-down City was not far away. They arrived in an hour and stopped in front of a luxurious compound.
Lu Li got off the carriage with the others. He took a casual glance and was surprised.
An old man in a splendid robe was standing at the gate of the compound. The man's qi and energy were so strong that Lu Li could not tell his realm. Needless to say, he was a powerful warrior of the Fate Wheel Realm.
There was a cyan willow leaf mark on the man's neck. He was a Bloodline Warrior of the Fifth Rank. The Xu Family of the God-down Island deserved to be the Overlord of the northeast of the Thousand-island Lake. They were powerful.
"That is Xu Sihe, the Second Patriarch of the Xu Family."
Patriarch Seven whispered to Lu Li's ear. Lu Li nodded and got off the carriage.
Xu Sihe looked at Lu Li and put on a smile. Before Xu Yaoyang introduced him, he walked to Lu Li in strides and said with a smile, "I am Xu Sihe, the Second Patriarch of the Xu Family. You must be Island Owner Lu Li?"
Lu Li knew how to behave himself since Xu Sihe gave him face. He bowed and said, "Greetings, Senior Xu."
"Good, good. Young hero, young hero."
Xu Sihe took Lu Li's hand in a friendly manner. He looked at the other Island Owners and said casually, "We are old acquaintances. Come into the castle with me. Brother Lu, please!"
Many Island Owners, Young Masters and Young Ladies were envious when they saw Xu Sihe walking into the compound with Lu Li's hand in his.
Since when was the Patriarch of the Xu Family so polite to an affiliated force?
It was difficult for them to see Xu Sihe, not to mention being led in by him in person.
Patriarch Seven and Liu Yi stood straight, feeling honored. Lu Li didn't get carried away.
He knew that Xu Sihe was not doing this for him, but for Ming Yu.
Without Ming Yu's kneeling, Xu Sihe wouldn't see him even if Lu Li knelt to see him.
The banquet hadn't started yet. Xu Sihe showed them to a side chamber, served them some tea and snacks, and chatted.
Of course, Xu Sihe was mainly chatting with Lu Li, asking about the situation at the Blood Evil Island and if he needed any help.
He even asked Lu Li if he had a wife and wanted to introduce someone to Lu Li …
In a trance, Lu Li even thought that Xu Siduo was his elder. Xu Siduo answered every now and then with respect and politeness.
However, it was impossible for him to ask about Ming Yu!
After Xu Yaoyang came in, he excused himself and left. He continued to receive guests at the docks, causing many young ladies to be disappointed.
The Xu Clan's Grand Elder and Xu Clan's Patriarch, Xu Chen, had yet to show themselves. After all, they had to put on airs.
Half an hour later, a servant of the Xu family hurried in and whispered a few words in Xu Sihe's ear. Xu Sihe suddenly got up and said in surprise, "Everyone, Miss Bai Xiashuang has come to God-down City. Let's go and welcome her together."
"Oh?"
All the Island Lords stood up. This time, it was the Young Masters of the other Island Lords' turn to have their eyes light up.
Lu Li stood up as well and asked Patriarch Seven with curiosity, "Bai Xiashuang is a young lady of the Bai Family?"
"Bai Xiashuang, Bai Qiuxue!"
Patriarch Seven explained in a low voice, "They are the two most famous young ladies of the Bai Family, the two brightest pearls of the Thousand-island Lake. They are twins. The most important thing is that both of them have awakened — Seventh-rank Bloodline.
They are the favorite of the Old Man of Heaven Prison. They stay with the Old Man of Heaven Prison all year round. Their status is higher than many Patriarchs of the Bai Family. "
"Seventh-rank Bloodline!"
Lu Li's eyes glowed. How powerful would the Bloodline Skill of Seventh-rank Bloodline be when it was released?
Would it be like the black snakes of Ghost Snake Granny that could kill thousands of people in one move?
Everyone walked towards the outside. Lu Li followed them under the urging of Patriarch Seven.
At the gate of the Xu Family compound, Lu Li saw many Patriarchs of the Xu Family came out to greet them. The Chief Patriarch of the Xu Family, Xu Tianwen, was there as well.
Xu Tianwen didn't exchange greetings with them. He just nodded and hurried out with his men towards the Teleportation Formation at the plaza.
Lu Li followed the crowd. From the distance, he saw a girl in a white dress surrounded by a group of people.
Lu Li got closer and his eyes lit up. One of the two brightest pearls of the Thousand-island Lake was really beautiful. Her looks and bearing were not weaker than the young lady of a Big Family with a purple flower mark on her neck that he saw at the Frigid Cloud Mountain.
The girl seemed to be younger than Xu Fangfei, about the same age as Lu Li. Even though she had not fully blossomed, she was as attractive as a budding rose.
Her face was like jade, her skin was smooth, and her eyes were like stars. What impressed Lu Li the most was her nose, small and exquisite. The tip of her nose was slightly turned up, giving Lu Li a feeling that it was very lively.
"Seventh-rank Bloodline indeed!"
Lu Li nodded to himself when he saw a purple crescent mark on the girl's neck. This was the second Seventh-rank Bloodline mark that he had seen. The young lady of a Big Family he met at the Frigid Cloud Mountain also had a purple mark.
"Middle stage of the Soul Pond Realm?
So powerful … "
Lu Li sensed it. The corner of his mouth twitched. She had reached the middle stage of the Soul Pond Realm at such a young age. A young lady of a Big Family was really amazing.
But on second thought, the Bai Family was the No.1 Family of the Thousand-island Lake with endless resources. Bai Xiashuang and Bai Qiuyu must have been growing up on pellets and treasures. Lu Li understood.
The Chief Patriarch of the Xu Family, Xu Tianwen, walked over with a group of people. They were extremely respectful. The other Island Owners of Third-rank Islands also went over to greet them. Only Lu Li stood still.
Lu Li was never one for flattery. Also, he was a disciple of the Lu Family, one of the 10 most powerful Bloodlines of the Central Plains. Why should he bow and scrape to others?
What was more, even if he were to serve Bai Xiashuang, would she like him?
Lu Li didn't move. Hunchback Tian, Patriarch Seven and the others did not want to go over and flatter him.
Patriarch Seven urged Lu Li twice, but Lu Li turned a deaf ear. There were too many people, so Patriarch Seven didn't try to persuade him anymore.
Bai Xiashuang was surrounded by people like stars surrounding the moon. She looked calm as if she had seen this kind of scene many times.
She replied casually. Then she looked to the north and saw Lu Li.
Lu Li had a group of people with him. Clearly, he was the leader of a force. He had come here to greet Bai Xiashuang. However, he was standing still, which made him stand out.
Bai Xiashuang gave the Chief Patriarch of the Xu Family an inquiring look. Xu Sihe, who was next to her, came to his senses. He waved his hand and said, "Lu Li, come and greet Lady Shuang.
Lady Shuang, this is Lu Li, the new Island Owner of the Blood Evil Island. "
"Oh?"
For the first time, Bai Xiashuang smiled. She looked at Lu Li curiously and said, "Lu Li, I have heard of you."
"What ~"
Before Lu Li came to greet her, Bai Xiashuang had taken the initiative to talk?
For the first time, she smiled and said she had heard of Lu Li, which caused quite a stir.
