Chapter 248: Identity of the Mysterious Powerful Warrior
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
Brother Eight of the Yu Family had no other choice but to fly away with Yu Feinong. Right at that moment, from the southwest came a thundering roar, "Bastards of the Yu Family. You have killed people and now you want to go? You wish!"
"Whoosh..."
Two noises came, piercing through the sky. A four-layered Fate Wheel and a five-layered one came their way. Lu Li glanced over and found a familiar person, Bai Rui, one of the patriarchs of the Bai Family. Last time, he spent several days at the Blood Evil Island with Bai Qiuxue and Bai Xiashuang.
Eternal Realm warriors of the Bai Family were here as well?
Lu Li was astonished by the situation. Why would warriors of the Yu Family here? Who was that powerful warrior that snorted? How come the Bai Family warriors got here so quickly?
Hunchback Tian had no idea what to do as he was completely freaked out. He looked at Lu Li, terrified, and asked in a low voice, "Master, what should we do now?"
How could Lu Li know?
He said nothing as he looked towards the direction Yu Feinong fled to. He saw Bai Rui and another patriarch of the Bai Family pursuing the Yu Family warriors, ready to fight right away. Lu Li said in a low voice, "Let's not do anything. Nothing!"
There were too many powerful warriors. If they took any ill-considered actions, they could be killed at once. Lu Li thought about it some more and said, "Let's go down now. Don't be too obvious. It's easy to be killed by them now."
Hunchback Tian quickly took control of the Fate Wheel and flew down. The two stayed on the beach to observe the situation.
"Boom, boom, boom~"
From the northwest soon came sounds of explosion. It should be the two patriarchs of the Bai Family fighting against Yu Feinong and the other Yu Family warrior.
Now that they had made sure the identities of these four, Lu Li and Hunchback Tian looked at each other, trying to guess who that powerful warrior that snorted was.
"Master, do you think he is the one that helped us at the Heaven Martial Kingdom?"
Hunchback Tian asked in a low voice. Lu Li thought it was possible. Just now, when Yu Feinong wanted to kill him, the mysterious powerful warrior snorted, which scared off Yu Feinong right away. This powerful warrior was clearly helping him.
Lu Li dared not to make too wild guesses since the powerful warrior hadn't shown himself. He waited for the result of the fight between Bai Rui and Yu Feinong nervously.
As for warriors of the God-down Island, they were even more astonished than Lu Li.
Xu Chen was killed by the Yu Family, and Xu Tianwen died in the hands of Hunchback Tian. They were now without a leader, and so many warriors of the Eternal Realm appearing scared the hell out of them. They were at a loss of what to do.
Continue to fight?
Could they kill Lu Li? When Lu Li used his Dragon Roar, he could kill them like butchering cows and goats. Wouldn't they just send themselves to death?
Running away?
The situation was unclear. Who had the guts to move about? Maybe they could be killed soon. They had to wait inside the battleships anxiously.
"Boom, boom, boom~"
From the northwest, the bombing sounds became louder and louder. Tides were surging up as if there were a tsunami. The horrifying qi and energy had spread over even though they could not see the fight in the distance clearly.
"Ah—"
Suddenly, a miserable cry came out. Lu Li and warriors of the God-down Island became tense. The cry came from Bai Rui. Did Yu Feinong kill him?
Yet it was understandable as Yu Feinong's Fate Wheel was an eight-layered one and Bai Ge and Bai Rui's were five-layered and four-layered respectively.
"Bai Rui!"
A shout full of sorrow and lament came, proving everyone's speculation. Bai Ge angrily shouted, "Yu Feinong, you are doomed. The Yu Family is doomed. How dare you kill Bai Rui? Our Family Patriarch will kill every one of the Yu Family."
"Swish, swish, swish~"
Many warriors of the God-down Island changed their expressions. Lu Li and Hunchback Tian felt the matter too difficult for them to handle. Things had spun out of their expectation.
A patriarch of the Bai Family was killed?
The Old Man of Heaven Prison would surely fly into violent rage. By then, nobody could get out of this easily. Lu Li, the initiator of all this, would be buried in troubles.
"Uncle Rui—"
From the southwest came a woman's cry of sorrow. Then another voice familiar to Lu Li came out, "Yu Feinong, go to hell!"
Madam Yan, Bai Leng!
Lu Li and Hunchback Tian looked at each other, feeling the matter more and more troublesome. Madam Yan and Bai Leng were here. The situation was completely out of control now.
"Let's go back,"
Lu Li looked at Hunchback Tian and the two secretly left for the Blood Evil Island. They were too obvious a target on the beach. They were afraid that Madam Yan and Bai Leng would vent their anger on them.
Soon, they went into a forest nearby the dock and looked to the distance. Sure enough, there was a huge Iron-armored Ship flying over with Madam Yan and Bai Leng standing at the front. The strong killing intent covered an area with a radius of more than three miles.
"Master, how about we run away?"
Hunchback Tian tried to convince Lu Li to go inside that small world. They could not manage the situation now. One careless move and they could die without a burial ground.
Lu Li looked seriously as he was experiencing inner conflict. It was easy for him and Hunchback Tian to run away, but how about the Liu Family?
Bringing so many people into that small world would require time and could lead to the exposure of the small world. But if they left without the Liu Family, every one of the family would be killed.
"Young Master, don't be afraid. I am here. Nobody can harm you."
A cold voice suddenly came from behind them which sent chills down Lu Li’s and Hunchback Tian's back. They quickly turned around as if they were ready to see a ghost. When Lu Li saw who that was, he was taken by surprise.
A man came out from nowhere stood behind them for nobody knew how long. It was a middle-aged man wearing snow-white clothes and carried a silver sword on his back. His hair was white. and his face looked like it was cut by knives and axes, a man cold by nature.
Ming Yu!
Lu Li remembered this person so well, but Hunchback Tian had never seen Ming Yu. He tried to sense Ming Yu's qi and energy, only to be shocked as he could not find out which realm Ming Yu was at.
Lu Li soon came to his senses. He asked, "Lord Ming Yu, it was you that… saved me just now?"
"Yes!"
Ming Yu showed no emotions. He coldly said, "Not only just now. It was also me that killed Yu Feijia at the Cliff of Purgatory. I also helped you get rid of all the scouts at the Heaven Martial Kingdom and diverted warriors of the Yu Family. It was all me!"
"What..."
Lu Li and Hunchback Tian were stupefied, not knowing how to think.
Many people of the entire Northern Desert were trying to find out who that powerful warrior at the Cliff of Purgatory that understood "Force". Many were investigating the powerful warrior that followed Lu Li to the Heaven Martial Kingdom. They never expected that it was the same person, the person they never thought possible.
Ming Yu, No. 1 of the Five Freaks of the Thousand-island Lake, the only person that could live on well after refusing the Bai Family, the only person that could live in peace even if a young lady of the Bai Family died of love for him.
A man of mysteries, a man that knelt to Lu Li, and a man left with disappointment because Lu Li could not activate Lu Renhuang's token. He never came back to the Blood Evil Island, so nobody expected that he had been protecting Lu Li secretly.
Lu Li and Hunchback Tian looked at Ming Yu, their eyes flickering; their feelings were hard to calm down. Ming Yu, on the other hand, showed no emotions. He said nothing, acting like a hard-hearted person.
After the time for more than a dozen breaths, Lu Li finally came to his senses. He asked, "Lord Ming Yu, you have reached the Noble Lord Realm?"
Ming Yu still showed no signs of emotion. He merely nodded and said, "I have prepared all the Mystical Materials I needed before I came to the Blood Evil Island last time. When I got back, I made the breakthrough."
"Wow!"
Hunchback Tian and Lu Li exclaimed secretly. Ming Yu was a loner. He had collected all the Mystical Materials and reached the Noble Lord Realm by himself without the support from any families. He really was a one-of-a-kind talent.
Lu Li said nothing for a while. Then he asked an important question, "Lord Ming Yu, didn't you make sure that I was not the son of Lu Renhuang? Why are you calling me Young Master? Why are you protecting me secretly? Also… I cannot activate your master's token."
"He, he!"
Ming Yu finally smiled, which was still cold. He waved his hand and said, "That token is a fake one that I made on purpose. As for… the fact that you are my Young Master, I made sure of that when I first saw you."
"Buzzing!"
The ring on Ming Yu's hand glowed. He took out a scroll and opened it. On the scroll painted a handsome man. One look at it and Lu Li was trembling.
Because—
The man on the painting looked very much similar to Lu Li. Clearly, this was a painting of Lu Renhuang. Ming Yu had known Lu Li's identity all along!
