Chapter 257: Uncrowned King

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

Adequate preparations were made for the fight which could be launched at any time.

On the word of command from the Old Man of Heaven Prison, numerous warriors were teleported to the Black Tooth Island which was close to the Cliff of Purgatory. Passing the Cliff of Purgatory was the Heaven Martial Kingdom. The warriors could make their landing there.

As a matter of fact, the God-down Island was closer to the Heaven Martial Kingdom. But Madam Yan was aware that Lu Li had just taken the island over so he must have his hands full. Therefore, Madam Yan didn't book their Teleportation Formation.

The Black Tooth Island had many battleships ready. As soon as the warriors were teleported to the Black Tooth Island, they boarded the ships and waited.

More than 10,000 warriors were going this time and the lowest Realm among the warriors was the Soul Pond Realm. Almost 70% of the powerful warriors of the Thousand-island Lake were taking part in this fight. The Old Man of Heaven Prison didn't have much time left in this lifetime. This probably was his last chance to fight. The Bai Family valued it very much and nothing could go wrong.

When all the 10,000 warriors arrived, more than a dozen Iron-armored Ships flew over from the Black Tooth City. Bai Xi was standing on the deck of the first Iron-armored Ship with many others.

He glanced to the crowds and shouted in a cold voice, "The Yu Family had breached our deal and invaded the Thousand-island Lake and killed a Patriarch of the Bai Family. Our Family Patriarch had said that they must pay the bloody price. The authority of the Thousand-island Lake cannot be challenged. This time, we will go to the Yu Emperor City and we shall not return until we exterminate the Yu Family!"

"No return until we exterminate the Yu Family!"

The 10,000 warriors shouted along. The loud voice resounded through heaven and earth and caused water in the lake to tumble around.

"Move out!"

A hoary voice came from inside the first Iron-armored Ship. It was quiet, with no emotions involved. It was the first time for many people to hear the voice but they somehow felt there was a magic power in that voice that made their blood burn up.

The Old Man of Heaven Prison!

The uncrowned king of the Thousand-island Lake, the god that had been protecting the Thousand-island Lake for more than 2000 years, and a legend that had never failed. Many people were so excited to hear his voice that they almost dropped to their knees. Many people felt it was glorious to be able to go to fight with the god of the Thousand-island Lake.

"Let's move out!"

More and more warriors shouted as the more than 1000 battleships rushed out, breaking tides. Soul Pond Realm warriors were standing on the deck, filled with the longing to kill. In the sky, over a dozen Iron-armored Ships were following the battleships slowly like a bunch of beasts. The scene was shocking and exciting to watch.

Madam Yan came with some people to send the warriors off. When the battleships and Iron-armored Ships disappeared into the horizon, Madam Yan waved her hand and said, "Let's go back."

As soon as she was teleported back to the Bai Emperor Mountain, Madam Yan was buried in work. She was not only staying on guard at the Bai Emperor Mountain, she needed to collect intelligence and be in charge of logistics and supplies.

After she got back to the Bai Emperor Mountain, her eyebrows had always been knitted together. On the surface, everything should go well since the Old Man of Heaven Prison was so powerful. In the old days, he could fight against Family Patriarchs of the three Royal Families and injured two of them. The three Royal Families wouldn't do anything ill-considered unless what they wanted was loss at both sides.

Still...Madam Yan had this sad feeling and something was haunting her mind. But she could not put a pin on what exactly was not going right.

Madam Yan was at the outdoor pavilion. Upon finishing some work at hand, she waved and said, "Let Qiuxue and Xiashuang out. I want Qiuxue to help me with my work."

Even though Bai Qiuxue was still young, but she was thoughtful and resourceful. She was much like a young Madam Yan. Madam Yan had always been desiring to develop her. She did have many things go deal with and she had made a deal with Lu Li so she was not so pissed.

The twins were brought over. Bai Qiuxue showed no emotions but Bai Xishuang pouted and she didn't even look at Madam Yan.

After Bai Qiuxue walked into the pavilion, she bowed and asked, "Auntie, our Forefather has gone to the Heaven Martial Kingdom? Is everything okay now?"

"Yes!"

Madam Yan nodded but she didn't show that she had forgiven the twins. After a moment of silence, Madam Yan said, "You are not children anymore so you need to learn more things now. Help me to deal with the matters at hand. Also, when you have some spare time, go to the God-down City and try to make things right with Lu Li."

Even though the twins were grounded, they still learned what happened. On mentioning this, Bai Xiashuang asked in curiosity, "Auntie, why did you let Lu Li go all of a sudden? Why did you give him the God-down City? Did Lu Li agree to join our Family?"

Bai Qiuxue was curious as well. They heard something but they didn't get the most important intelligence.

The twins could never understand it. How come Madam Yan admit defeat to Lu Li, not with her personality?

Madam Yan thought about it and decided to stop withhold any information. She put on a wry smile and said, "How can he join our Family? He has such strong personality. Also...based on his identity, the Bai Family is not good enough for him."

"Ah?"

Bai Xiashuang's cherry lips were wide open and her eyes were filled with surprise and confusion. Bai Qiuxue frowned and murmured, "Identity? Not good enough? Really..."

She suddenly looked to Madam Yan. After gaining confirmation from Madam Yan, Bai Qiuxue tumbled to the truth and exclaimed, "No wonder he is full of mysteries. If he is that man's son, it will all add up..."

Bai Xiashuang was not so as clever. She scratched her head and asked her sister in confusion, "Sister, what are you talking about? What is it with Lu Li?"

Bai Qiuxue explained, "Lu Li is the son of Lu Renhuang, the Lu Renhuang that created a tremendous uproar at the Bai Emperor Mountain 20 years ago."

"Ah?"

Bai Xiashuang's mouth was wide open. She came to her senses after some time and said, "Lu Li, Lu Li, he, he..."

"That's enough!"

Madam Yan interrupted Bai Xiashuang and told them seriously, "You cannot leak this information nor can you offend Lu Li. He is not going to stay long at the Thousand-island Lake. He will go to the Central Plains soon and he may never come back again. Of course, if we can construct a good relationship with him, in the future, when Lu Li gets in power at the Lu Family, he may help us out on account of your friendship."

"Leaving?"

Bai Qiuxue seemed disappointed. She asked, "Auntie, did Lu Li ever come to the Bai Emperor Mountain lately?"

"No!"

Madam Yan glanced to Bai Qiuxue and said seriously, "Qiuxue, don't overthink it. Lu Li is a dragon that belongs to the Central Plains, not to the Northern Desert. He will not reside in this place. Our forefather also did your fortune-you are going to marry Human Sovereign warriors of the Northern Desert. So, it is not possible for you to be with Lu Li. What is more...in the old days, Lu Renhuang made such a huge scene at the Bai Emperor Mountain and our forefather was almost slapped to death by him. Do you think our forefather will give his consent?"

"Auntie, that's not what I mean!" Bai Qiuxue blushed, but she could not hide the disappointment on her face.

Bai Xiashuang could not keep her mouth shut. She kept exclaiming, "Lu Li has such a strong connection? His father is Lu Renhuang? A warrior of the Human Sovereign Realm..."

"Shuang-er!"

Bai Qiuxue thought about it and said, "If you have nothing to do, go and check on Lu Li. I will stay here and help out our auntie."

"Okay!"

Bai Xiashuang nodded right away. She was so interested about Lu Li and she wanted to be teleported to the God-down City to find Lu Li and ask him all the questions she had.

Madam Yan give it some thought and realized that it was better for Bai Xiashuang to go. This girl was a thoughtless creature so it was better to let her build up the relationship with Lu Li.

"Go and bring him 10 Heaven Grade Xuan Skill!"

Madam Yan waved her hand and Bai Xiashuang left happily. She was born to be a restless girl. Now that she was let out, she could not sit still for one moment, much like a bird freed from the cage.

Bai Qiuxue gazed after Bai Xiashuang as she went. The glow in her eyes dimmed down. Her eyebrows were tightly knitted together and sorrow lingered on her face.

Madam Yan knew what Bai Qiuxue was thinking. She walked over, took Bai Qiuxue's hands in hers and sighed, "All lot of things cannot go our way in our life. We are born in a Big Family and we are females. Our fate has been set since the moment we are born. Don't sink too deep into your feelings or you will end up hurting. I don't want you to become the second...Black Widow."
