The winner is the king, the loser is the bandit, the weak are prey to the strong, the strong are respected!
That was the law of survival in the Northern Desert, or even the entire world.
There was no use complaining or blaming others. It was better to face reality.
The Xu family immediately retreated and returned to the God-down Island to discuss and settle the funeral arrangements.
The Xu Family's army had yet to return, but the city was already in chaos.
The scout had already sent the battle report back. Xu Fangfei was stunned on the spot and fell to the ground, unable to react for a long time.
The disciples of the Xu family were frightened, and Xu Chen's concubines were in a state of panic. The entire God-down City was in an uproar.
Not only the God-down City, the entire Thousand-island Lake was boiling.
It was not because of the Xu family, but because Yu Feinong had killed Bai Rui.
The Thousand-island Lake had an agreement with the three forces that there would be no more disputes and no powerful warriors of the three forces could enter the Thousand-island Lake.
Now, not only did the Yu Family send people in, but they also killed an elder of the Bai Family.
How could this be?
When the Old Man of Heaven Prison was enraged, not to mention the Yu Family, the whole Tianwu Kingdom would bleed.
As expected!
In just two hours, the Old Man of Heaven Prison gave an order in person to the entire Northern Desert — the Yu Family had broken off the agreement and the Thousand-island Lake would march to the Yu Emperor City and kill everyone in the Yu Family. Anyone who dared to stop them would be the enemy of the Thousand-island Lake.
The Old Man of Heaven Prison declared war. The entire Thousand-island Lake was boiling again.
All the family heads of the fourth-rank families were teleported to the Heaven Prison City and asked to go with them.
It was an honor to go to war with the Old Man of Heaven Prison.
As a member of the Thousand-island Lake, how could he miss such a big fight?
What was more, there was no danger in this battle. They were just going to rob the wealth that the Yu Family had accumulated over the years. The Thousand-island Lake had a good reason to fight. How would the three Royal Families dare to show up?
The Old Man of Heaven Prison was ranked top three on the Northern Desert Warlord List. He once defeated the three Royal Family Patriarchs by himself and shocked the entire Northern Desert.
The three Royal Families had been beaten into submission. This time, the Old Man of Heaven Prison led the army in a rage. Who dared to court death?
The entire Northern Desert was in an uproar.
As expected, the three Royal Families didn't say anything. They acquiesced to the Thousand-island Lake's expedition. The fate of the Yu Family had been decided.
Bai Xi and the rest got busy, preparing for the battle.
A large number of scouts were dispatched. Such a large-scale battle was not something that could be started casually. A comprehensive plan was required.
The Old Man of Heaven Prison said that he wanted to exterminate the entire Yu Family, so no one could escape!
Therefore, Bai Xi first sent a large number of scouts to the Tianwu Kingdom to closely monitor every move of the Yu Family.
At the same time, he also had to monitor the movements of the three royal families. It was better to be safe than sorry.
The candidates for the expedition this time had to be discussed and arranged. It was impossible for all the experts to go.
What if some armies attacked the Thousand-island Lake and breached the Bai Emperor Mountain?
There were also all kinds of materials that needed to be prepared. With so many experts on the expedition, they couldn't possibly let them sleep in the open, right?
They needed a complete and proper arrangement.
After a few meetings, Bai Xi quickly made up his mind. One month later, they would set off and raze Yu Emperor City to the ground.
The keynote was set. Everyone of the Thousand-island Lake was excited. After all, this was an honor for the Thousand-island Lake.
Everyone felt they had gained face and they could make a name for themselves at the Northern Desert. After this, which Family of the three Kingdoms would dare to act presumptuously at the Thousand-island Lake?
Most of the warriors that could enter the Thousand-island Lake were driven into a dead end by the Big Families outside.
Therefore, they didn't have any good feelings towards the three Kingdoms. Instead, they had a sense of belonging and honor to the Thousand-island Lake.
Naturally, many warriors were gearing up for a fight to fight back against the Families of the three Kingdoms.
…
Warriors of the Blood Evil Island were excited as well. The disciples of the Liu Family were so excited that they cried tears of joy.
The Yu Family was the sworn enemy of the Liu Family. They were about to be exterminated. How could they not be happy?
More importantly, the Liu Family was about to go to the God-down Island with Lu Li.
It was a Fourth-rank Island. The Liu Family was weak, not yet a Fourth-rank Family.
But as long as they could control the God-down Island, the Liu Family could rise up in no time.
Fourth-rank Family!
The most powerful time in the history of the Liu Family was when Liu Rufeng was a Third-rank Family.
Now, the Liu Family could become a Fourth-rank Family. This was enough to make many disciples of the Liu Family crazy with excitement.
Lu Li didn't bring the warriors of the Blood Evil Island to the God-down Island right away. Instead, he buried the warriors that died in the battle one by one on the Dragon Elephant Mountain.
Lu Li felt he was responsible for the deaths of these people.
It was too late for him to wake up. Otherwise, these people wouldn't have to die.
He asked Liu Yi to provide a large amount of Xuan Crystals as compensation for the families of the deceased. Many Xuan Crystals were given to the wounded as well.
It was late at night, but Lu Li didn't feel tired or sleepy. He was surprised that the period of weakness for his Burning Blood Skill hadn't come yet.
It seemed that after he reached the Soul Pond Realm, his Burning Blood Skill could last longer. He might be able to last for more than one day.
He didn't go to the Earth Dragon Island. He planned to spend the night on the Dragon Elephant Mountain.
Hunchback Tian was healing his wounds. He had lost an arm. It would take him at least 10 days or half a month to recover completely.
Ming Yu was cultivating in the pavilion with his legs crossed. Lu Li was standing there in a daze.
He was digesting what had happened in the past few days and thinking about the changes that happened when he reached the Soul Pond Realm.
The animal tooth pendant was missing, and there was a mysterious dragon-shaped mark in his Soul Pond. Was this a good thing or a bad thing?
Currently, there was nothing wrong with his body. He was doing very well.
The Xuan Energy in his Spirit Sea was becoming more condensed, and his Soul Pond was stable. Everything was fine.
Ming Yu's appearance had guaranteed Lu Li's safety. Nothing was a problem.
Three months later, when Ming Yu was done with his business, Lu Li could go back to the Lu Family at the Central Plains and go to the Cyan Plains to find Lu Ling.
Lu Li didn't care about the Old Man of Heaven Prison going to the Yu Emperor City.
Lu Li's hatred faded on the thought that the Yu Family was going to be destroyed.
He stood on the mountain peak for an hour and thought things through.
He didn't want to worry about the Yu Family or the Thousand-island Lake anymore. He wanted to help the Liu Family take over the God-down Island and stabilize it.
In three months, he would leave the Thousand-island Lake and go to the Central Plains to find the Lu Family.
Lu Li still didn't feel sleepy after standing there for a while. He went back to the castle to cultivate. He didn't fall asleep until it was almost dawn.
The next day, Lu Li took Ming Yu, Liu Yi, Patriarch Nine and more than a dozen warriors of the Spirit Sea Realm to the God-down Island on a chariot.
Lu Li asked Hunchback Tian to assume command at the Blood Evil Island. He was ready to take over the God-down Island.
One day had passed. The ones of the Xu Family who should leave must have left.
The ones who stayed either wanted to live or perish with the God-down City or surrender.
As soon as Lu Li set foot on the Blood Evil Island, the God-down City received the news. The more than a dozen families in the city became nervous.
Many Family Patriarchs came to the city gate with their Patriarchs, waiting for Lu Li's arrival.
By the time Lu Li and the others got out of the city, there were already hundreds of people gathered at the city gate. They were all members of the families in the city.
"Welcome, Island Owner Lu!"
As soon as Lu Li arrived, the hundreds of people in front of him all got down on one knee and saluted with respect.
Lu Li nodded. It seemed that these families were ready to surrender. They were sensible.
"Let's go to the city!"
Lu Li waved his hand and walked into the city first. The people behind him stood up and followed him. They walked towards the plaza in a formidable array.
The plaza was already crowded with people, waiting for Lu Li's arrival nervously.
Even though there were tens of thousands of people on the plaza and many of them were warriors in armors of the Xu Family, it was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.
The gate of the Xu Family compound was closed. White silk and black cloth were hung outside the gate.
Last night, many people of the Xu Family came in and out. Nobody knew how many were still inside.
Lu Li walked into the plaza with the others. Many people knelt down.
Lu Li looked to the Xu Family compound. The gate was slowly opened at this moment.
Xu Fangfei walked out with a group of people with a black cloth wrapped around her arm and a white mourning dress.
