The Di Long Tribe was not big, and its population was less than a thousand people.
All of them were surnamed Di except for Lu Ling and Lu Li. They were outsiders.
However, the siblings were not outsiders. Both of them were born in the tribe. Their maternal grandfather was the previous chief of the Di Long tribe.
19 years ago, the only daughter of the previous chief, who was also Lu Li's mother, rescued an injured young man from the mountains.
The young man was seriously injured. While he was recuperating in the tribe, he fell in love with the Chief's only daughter. Later, they bore fruit and gave birth to Lu Ling and Lu Li.
Unfortunately, after Lu Li was born, both the young man and the Chief's daughter went missing, leaving behind the four-year-old Lu Ling and the swaddled Lu Li, all alone.
Several days later, Lu Li's grandpa died in the mountains with more than a dozen powerful warriors of the family. Lu Ling and Lu Li became orphans.
After his grandfather's death, Di Ba, who was a master from another branch of the tribe, became the new chief.
Almost all the experts in Lu Li's maternal grandfather's lineage were dead, and Di Ba's lineage had always been on bad terms with Lu Li's maternal grandfather.
Lu Li and Lu Ling had lost their support, and they were not of the same family. The new Chief was not on good terms with their grandpa. It was not hard to imagine how they would be treated in the tribe.
For as long as he could remember, Lu Li was often bullied and called a bastard.
If it weren't for the fact that there was still a living elder in their grandfather's bloodline, the two siblings would have long been driven out of the tribe and left to wander in the wilderness to be eaten by wild beasts.
Seven years of training under the waterfall, carrying coffins in a world of ice and snow!
All of this was for the sake of becoming stronger. He wanted to take his sister away from the Di Long Tribe and not be bullied anymore.
"Awaken my bloodline! I will definitely awaken it!"
Hearing her words, Lu Li clenched his fists.
He went into his room to eat without saying a word. After he had several bowls of porridge, Lu Ling had already prepared a set of clean clothes for him and packed a jute bag with dried meat and water.
"Sis, I'm going to pull the coffin."
Lu Li changed his clothes, carried the jute bag, and walked out of the tribe quickly, ignoring the cold expressions of his clansmen.
After leaving the tribe for a couple of miles, Lu Li began to run at full speed. His destination was the Cutting Blade Ridge, which was 30 miles to the northwest, the former Ice Crematorium of the Liu Family.
Today's weather was better than yesterday. The wind and snow had stopped.
However, the snow was still deep. Lu Li ran at full speed and it took him more than two hours to reach the foot of the Cutting Blade Ridge.
Some old men had already started to carry coffins. When they saw Lu Li, they reminded him and advised him not to do such dirty work at such a young age.
Lu Li smiled but said nothing. He went straight to the Cutting Blade Ridge. He took off his shirt and walked forward with an ancient coffin.
It took Lu Li a lot of effort to get down the mountain. The path was slippery, and the coffin was heavy.
Lu Li dared not to pull it back. He grabbed the coffin with both hands and walked down the mountain step by step.
After two hours, Lu Li managed to carry the coffin down the mountain safely. He carried the cold iron chains on his shoulders and ran for his life.
"Eh?"
After running for a few miles, a group of Silver Wolf guards galloped over.
The Escort Leader, Liu Wu, saw that Lu Li had a much easier time carrying the coffin today. He asked in confusion, "Lu Li, did you consume the Body Refinement Pellet last night?"
Lu Li stopped and said with an embarrassed smile, "Yes, my lord!"
Liu Wu looked at him a few times and said with even more doubt, "You … don't feel any discomfort?
You don't feel any discomfort? "
Lu Li did not know much about the Body Refinement Pellet of the Liu Family. Liu Wu and the other escorts had all taken it.
They clearly knew that after consuming the Body Refinement Pellet, there would be a period of weakness for several days.
After three or four days, the body would completely absorb the efficacy of the pellet and increase its strength.
Lu Li's strength had obviously increased, which meant that he had consumed the Body Refinement Pellet. Then why was there no period of weakness?
The other escorts all looked at Lu Li in confusion. The latter blinked and said, "I don't feel any discomfort. I just felt a bit uncomfortable last night. I got some sleep and got better in the morning."
"Freak …"
The escorts looked at each other speechlessly. It took them a whole day and a whole night to consume the Body Refinement Pellet, but Lu Li consumed it in just one night. How could he sleep well?
"Let's go ~"
Seeing that he could not get anything out of Lu Li, Liu Wu waved his hand and left with the Silver Wolf Escorts.
Even though Lu Li's physique was a bit strange, he could not cultivate Xuan Energy, which meant nothing to the Liu Family.
The Liu Family was the Overlord of the Wu Ling County. There were many warriors of the Xuan Wu Realm in the Liu Family.
The Cutting Blade Ridge was actually not far away from the Black Hawk Ridge, only about 25 miles away.
If Lu Li did not carry the coffin, he would only be able to travel for an hour and a half at full speed. However, it was difficult to travel fast with a Golden Ancient Coffin that weighed more than 3000 pounds.
Lu Li's strength had increased by 250 pounds, so it was easier for him to carry the coffin today. The journey was smooth, and he successfully arrived at the Black Hawk Ridge before dark.
"Eh?"
Lady Yi of the Liu Family was still guarding at the peak. When she saw Lu Li coming with the coffin, she was as surprised as Liu Wu.
She had taken the Body Refinement Pellet before and felt weak for two whole days. How could Lu Li recover in just one night?
Could it be that his physique was so abnormal that he could absorb the efficacy of the pellet so quickly?
Of course …
Lady Yi was just curious. She was not even in the mood to ask.
After she glanced at Lu Li, she looked at the craftsmen who were building the Formation at the peak.
The Ice Crematorium was very important. All the remains of the ancestors of the Liu Family were in there. The Formation must be built to protect it so that it could not be destroyed by Xuan Beasts.
After an hour, all the coffin carriers had arrived and the reward was given out.
Lu Li asked for another Body Refinement Pellet and left in a hurry while many people looked at him as an idiot.
The efficacy of the Body Refinement Pellet would be greatly reduced and the strength gained would be reduced. However, Lu Li insisted, so Liu Wu and the others didn't bother to remind him.
After running for two hours, Lu Li made it back to the tribe by nightfall.
Not surprisingly, he saw a delicate figure with a walking stick outside the tribe.
"Cripple, cripple!"
"Cripple woman, you can never get married …"
It was still early. Several kids were playing outside the tribe. Every now and then, they would throw snowballs at Lu Ling and insult her.
On the other hand, Lu Ling didn't care about them at all. She stood quietly outside the fence like an ice sculpture.
Lu Li's eyes turned red as soon as he saw this. He roared and rushed towards them, "Get lost, all of you, or I will beat you up."
The kids scattered in confusion. One of the older kids ran into the tribe, hid behind the fence and taunted, "Lu Li, you only dare to bully us. If you have the guts, go and challenge my Brother Huo and Brother Hu.
My Brother Huo doesn't even have to do anything, Brother Hu can beat you to death. You piece of trash. "
The older kid ran away as soon as he finished his words. Lu Li walked over angrily, but Lu Ling smiled lightly and said, "There are people in the world who slander me, humiliate me, belittle me, laugh at me, bully me and humiliate me. What should I do?
Put up with them, let them be, avoid them, be patient with them, let them be and ignore them. After a few years, you will see them.
Lu Li … you don't have to wait for a few years. After a month, you will see that they are just a bunch of clowns. "
"Yes, after a month!"
Lu Li nodded heavily and helped his sister back home.
After dinner, he immediately went back to his own room and started to consume the Body Refinement Pellet again.
"Um?"
After the time it took for two incense sticks to burn, Lu Li found that even though the heat from the pellet was still uncomfortable, it was not as horrible as yesterday. He could handle it easily.
Carrying coffins for a day was tiring. When the high temperature disappeared, Lu Li immediately fell asleep.
After he fell asleep, the primitive animal tooth pendant began to give out a faint white light, which was extremely strange.
"Creak ~"
After Lu Li fell asleep, Lu Ling gently pushed the door open and came in. Her eyes were immediately attracted by the glowing animal tooth pendant.
She walked over with a solemn expression and carefully observed for a while. After making sure that Lu Li was sleeping peacefully and that he was unharmed, she let out a sigh of relief.
She stared at the animal tooth pendant for a while and murmured in confusion, "How can this animal tooth pendant be glowing?
Is it a rare treasure?
Um … this is what father left for my brother. Father is so powerful, so this animal tooth pendant must have an extraordinary origin. "
"Father!"
Speaking of her father, Lu Ling's beautiful eyes became misty. She looked to the north and looked through the window for a long time before she murmured softly, "Father, mother, my brother is about to awaken his Bloodline.
By then, we can go back to our family and ask for help to rescue you.
You must hang in there, hang in there! "
