With the help of Pei An, Ming Yu, and Hunchback Tian, the Liu Family managed the God-down Island smoothly.
The warriors of the Spirit Sea Realm that Lu Li asked for were all transferred over from the families to form a new Blood Evil Army. Liu Yi was the commander in chief of this army.
Liu Yi was only at the middle stage of the Spirit Sea Realm, but she commanded more than a thousand warriors at the Spirit Sea Realm. Among them, there were five or six hundred warriors at the peak of the Spirit Sea Realm. It was ridiculous and uncoordinated.
However, no one dared to disobey because Hunchback Tian was the vice commander.
Hunchback Tian had lost an arm, so he was very angry recently. Whoever dared to disobey his orders, Hunchback Tian didn't punish them but killed them directly.
What was more, many believed that Liu Yi was Lu Li's woman. Gradually, most of the Blood Evil Army submitted to Lu Li.
Lu Li's treatment was good and many people acknowledged Liu Yi.
The God-down Island was huge and there were three other cities besides the God-down City.
There were dozens of properties on the island that belonged to the Xu family, but now they all belonged to the Liu family.
The forces and families that used to be affiliated to the Xu Family were now affiliated to Lu Li.
Every month, there would be Xuan Crystals as tribute. By calculation, Lu Li's monthly income could reach one million Xuan Crystals.
Actually …
The income of the Blood Evil Island used to be this high. Unfortunately, Lu Li's animal tooth pendant was gone. Naturally, the Blood Caterpillar Grass, Netherworld Roots and Fire Fairy Lucid Ganoderma could no longer be grown.
All the disciples of the Liu Family started to move. However, the Blood Evil Island wasn't given to other forces. A small number of people were stationed here.
This was Lu Li's order. There was a Teleportation Formation connecting the Earth Dragon Island to that small world.
As for the Setting Sun Island and the other empty island, the Liu Family didn't occupy them. Instead, they gave them to the two second-rank families.
It wasn't that the Liu Family didn't want them. It was just that they didn't have enough manpower.
There weren't many people in the first place, and after a few battles, there were even fewer. The Seventh Elder's leg was broken, and now he could only help a little behind the scenes.
Liu Yi had become more mature. In the past, she could count on the Seventh Elder, but now, she could only count on her.
The Ninth Patriarch could help a little, but he was not as experienced as the Seventh Patriarch. There were many things that Liu Yi was worried about.
Furthermore!
She was well aware that Lu Li wanted her to be the commander of the Blood Evil Army so that she could have a firm grasp of the army and the military power.
After Lu Li left, Liu Yi would be a mere figurehead and become a puppet.
Liu Yi was very smart and hardworking. She did everything herself.
Lu Li appointed her as the Deputy Island Owner of the God-down Island to be in charge of all affairs. She had become Lu Li's spokesperson.
Liu Yi knew that she didn't have much time. She had to establish her authority before Lu Li left, so she was working very hard.
…
Lu Li didn't care about anything. He lived in the backyard of the Xu Family compound and cultivated by himself. Ming Yu lived here as well.
Ming Yu said that he had something to do in three months, but he didn't leave immediately.
When Lu Li asked him, he told him that he only needed to go out for a few days when the three months were almost up.
Lu Li left Ming Yu alone. He was relieved that Ming Yu was here.
Xu Fangfei left. She was afraid that Lu Li would really strip her naked and hang her at the city gate.
Lu Li was not in the habit of killing women. What was more, Xu Chen was dead. His hatred towards the Xu Family had faded. There was no need to go to such extremes.
As for Xu Fangfei's revenge?
To Lu Li, there was no threat.
The Xu family was still around, so what if there was one more Xu Fangfei?
The Dark Force in the Deity Sea had been completely transformed and became exceptionally condensed.
Xuan Energy had sublimated. It used to be in a gaseous state, but now it was in a liquid state. Its power had been doubled.
Lu Li had been cultivating Xuan Energy these days. At the same time, he took pellets and herbs to nurture his Soul Pond and stabilize his realm.
For the rest of the time, he was cultivating the Apparition Skill. This Xuan Skill was powerful and Lu Li must master it.
"Whoosh, whoosh ~"
In the backyard of the Xu Family, Lu Li generated many phantoms, running around in the yard.
The phantoms came into being and disappeared one by one. The yard was filled with phantoms, dazzling people's eyes.
After several days of cultivation, Lu Li could generate two more phantoms, making the total number of phantoms now 20.
Ming Yu walked out from his room and stood on the side, looking at the phantoms in the yard.
He didn't say anything. Lu Li didn't stop either. He continued to cultivate.
"Swish ~"
Lu Li stopped and stood in front of Ming Yu.
Ming Yu was wearing a ghostly mask, so no one could see his expression. However, his eyes were flickering as he said, "Young Master, this should be an ancient secret technique that was derived from the Profound Meaning.
Try to study it. Maybe you can learn a little bit of the Profound Meaning. "
"Profound Meaning?"
Lu Li was intrigued. White Beard had only learned a little bit of the Profound Meaning, but he was so powerful that he could steal the sky and turn the day upside down.
Lu Li asked, "Ancient skill?
Is it any different from Xuan Skill? "
"There is a big difference!"
Ming Yu explained, "Ancient secret techniques are derived from Ultimacies, and some are derived from the fusion of several Ultimacies.
Xuan Skills, on the other hand, are much weaker. They are just some skills. Even Holy Grade Xuan Skills are not as good as the Profound Meaning. "
Lu Li was fascinated. He exclaimed, "Profound Meaning is that powerful?"
"Of course!"
Ming Yu put his hands behind his back, looked to the sky and said, "Profound Meaning is learned from heaven and earth. It is the truth of the world. Once you have learned a Profound Meaning, you can borrow the power of heaven and earth.
It is said that a ninth rank Profound Meaning can topple mountains and overturn seas, destroy heaven and earth.
There is another legend that the Northern Desert and the Central Plains were originally connected. A powerful warrior used a ninth rank Profound Meaning and split them apart in one move. "
"What?"
Lu Li's soul trembled. He was stunned. He blinked and said, "Ninth rank Profound Meaning?
He split the Northern Desert and the Central Plains in one move?
How is that possible … "
How big was the Northern Desert?
It would take Lu Li several months to travel in a straight line at full speed.
A powerful warrior had split the Northern Desert in half with one move?
Was this the power of a human being?
"The Northern Desert is a small place."
Ming Yu exclaimed, "There is no Human Sovereign Realm warrior here. Mystical Materials are scarce and Xuan Energy in heaven and earth is scarce.
The Central Plains is the center of the world, a paradise for powerful warriors. "
"Oh!"
Lu Li paused for a while and asked with curiosity, "Ninth rank Profound Meaning?
Ming Yu, what rank is your Force?
I think it is powerful as well. "
"Not at all!"
Ming Yu shook his head and said, "Mine is only of the second rank. The first rank is the weakest and the ninth rank is the most powerful.
Your father is powerful. He has learned a sixth rank Profound Meaning and has the Mystic Armor Skill. He has just reached the Human Sovereign Realm and he can already defeat warriors of the same rank. "
"My father is that powerful?"
Lu Li thought Ming Yu's "Force" was powerful enough but it was only of the second rank.
But his father had a sixth rank Profound Meaning?
If a ninth rank Profound Meaning could split the Northern Desert, then could his father split the Thousand-island Lake in half?
"If my father is so powerful, how come he was trapped in the Ice Abyss for so long?
Also, my father must be one of the most talented warriors in the Lu Family. Why didn't anyone from the Lu Family come looking for him? "
Lu Li had some questions. As far as he could tell, how could a small abyss trap someone as powerful as Lu Renhuang?
Why didn't the Lu Family send anyone to look for his father?
Could it be … that something was wrong with the Lu Family?
Or was there something else going on?
Lu Li frowned. He used to think that as long as he could go to the Lu Family at the Central Plains, everything would be solved. Now, he was worried.
