Chapter 283: New Overlord



Chapter 283: New Overlord

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

The chaos of the Thousand-island Lake quickly quieted down. Powerful warriors of the three kingdoms all gave orders for their armies to withdraw. Anyone that dared to kill another one or take another piece of Xuan Crystal shall be killed.

Du Zheng had demonstrated his support for Lu Li and Lu Li’s powerful warriors could beat any force of the Northern Desert. Who would be so bold as to act rashly? What if, in a fit of rage, Lu Li directly went to the three kingdoms and destroyed them?

Madam Yan sent some warriors to take over the fallen territories but there was actually not much to do. Many cities were leveled to the ground and treasures were taken away. Even farmlands were cleared…

Many families of the Thousand-island started to hunt down warriors of the three kingdoms. So many lives had fallen at the Thousand-island Lake, and now that they had won, they wanted to follow up a victory with hot pursuit.

Madam Yan didn’t mind those warriors expect for telling them to stay within the Thousand-island Lake. So many people had died this time so it was good to let the living vent some anger.

After Lu Li left the auction house, he didn’t go to the Bai Emperor Mountain. He directly went back to the God-down Island as he was kind of afraid to see Madam Yan, Bai Qiuxue and Bai Xiashuang.

Lu Li was given a generous gift by Du Zheng. If Lu Li wanted, he could become the overlord of the Thousand-island Lake right now, then he could become the new emperor of the Northern Desert.

However…

Du Zheng didn’t understand Lu Li well so his method of gift-giving was wrong.

Lu Li didn’t feel too grateful. Instead, he felt somewhat repellent of Du Zheng. Du Zheng really was insane. For benefits, he had made so many innocent people die.

It could not be denied!

Lu Li now indeed was the savior and guardian and the uncrowned king of the Thousand-island Lake. Only Lu Li had the ability to protect the Thousand-island Lake now. As long as Lu Li was alive, the three kingdoms would not have the guts to attack the Thousand-island Lake again. Lu Li had become the second Old Man of Heaven Prison.

The actual fact was known to only a few. Many more only had a faint notion. On the surface, Lu Li had turned the tides, beat the powerful warriors of the three kingdoms and saved the Thousand-island Lake.

The news went viral. Lu Li’s name was known to all at the Thousand-island Lake. Some survivors even set up tablets for the living to pray for him.

The armies had come in formidable arrays and left in fast speed!

In just 10 days, all the armies had left. The islands of the Thousand-island Lake went back to their original owners. The wounded were being treated and the dead were buried. Water that was tainted red became clear again.

The Thousand-island Lake had restored its quietness but the deceased could not be brought back to life. The pattern of the Thousand-island Lake was broken. Some families that had been in control of Fourth-rank Islands had lost too many powerful warriors that they no longer had the ability to hold onto their control. Those islands were coveted by other forces. For now, nobody made a move, vut it was only a matter of time before some families started to fight for those islands.

The Bai Emperor Mountain was in peace. There seemed to be less people in the Heaven Prison City. The liveliest place currently was the God-down City. All the Family Patriarchs and leaders were here to pay respect to the uncrowned king of the Thousand-island Lake.

Lu Li met none of them. He asked Liu Yi and Patriarch Nine to receive them or Yu Huashen if the two could not handle. Lu Li stayed in his backyard for 10 days since he hadn’t figured out how to meet Bai Qiuxue and Bai Xiashuang.

On the 11th day, a special guest came to the God-down City, Madam Yan.

Lu Li had to meet her. He asked Liu Yi to invite Madam Yan to the backyard and received her in a side chamber.

Ming Yu stood behind Lu Li with the Ghost Mask still on. Madam Yan seemed to be less haggard as the other day. She wore a black dress, black pearl earrings and black pearl necklace. The black color made her snow-white skin stand out. She appeared to be very elegant and quiet.

Madam Yan came on her own. She came in, bowed and said with respect, "Young Master Lu, greetings."

This was for servants to meet masters. Lu Li touched his nose in embarrassment and replied, "Please take a seat, Madam. Bring us some tea."

Maids served tea which Madam Yan didn’t drink. She looked at Ming Yu and said, "Young Master Lu, can I speak to you in private?"

Ming Yu coldly glanced over and killing intent spread out. Lu Li waved his hand and said, "Ming Yu, you can leave."

Sending Madam Yan a warning glance, Ming Yu left. Lu Li became even more embarrassed. He cleared his throat and said, "Madam Yan, how is the Bai Emperor Mountain now? I think you have taken control of the Thousand-island Lake."

"Thanks to you, Young Master Lu, the Bai Emperor Mountain is very well!"

Madam Yan nodded and added in a jealous tone, "As for… the other places of the Thousand-island Lake, Young Master Lu, you know better than I do. Those Island Owners are coming here on a daily basis. There are, I think, dozens of them outside now."

Lu Li detected the jealousy in Madam Yan’s words and knew what she was getting at. The Bai Family used to be the overlord of the Thousand-island Lake but nobody would go to the Bai Emperor Mountain now. Everyone was coming to the God-down City. The overlord of the Thousand-island Lake had changed. It was understandable that Madam Yan was a bit jealous and sad.

Lu Li remained silent for a while and then seriously said, "Madam Yan, you don’t have to use words to shame me. I never seek hegemony and the Thousand-island Lake is still the Bai Family’s. I will leave in no time and not only the Thousand-island Lake, but the Northern Desert as well. I may… not return for the rest of my life."

If it were not for Bai Qiuxue and Bai Xiashuang, Lu Li would have sent the Liu Family into the small world and asked Ming Yu to take him to Central Plains.

He wanted to go back to the Lu Family and take Lu Ling back from the Cyan Plains.

His mind was not on the Thousand-island Lake, and he didn’t want to be the overlord of the Thousand-island Lake, either. Du Zheng had picked a wrong gift.

Lu Li didn’t know how far away he was front the Central Plains or what kind of dangers he might be run into. He had to go to the Cyan Plains as well. He might die on his way, so that was why he said he might never come back.

"You are leaving?"

Madam Yan was shocked and then she was sacred. She said with a straight face, "Lu Li, you cannot go. I was just joking. How can the Bai Family be the overlord now? It must be you."

Madam Yan was holding some grudges and she was sad, but Lu Li could not joke about leaving. Without Lu Li here, the Bai Family could not take care of the Thousand-island Lake.

"I cannot worry about so many things!"

Lu Li said with certainty, "You need to deal with the matters of the Thousand-island Lake by yourselves. I can take care for you on one occasion, but I cannot care about you for your whole life. I have my stuff and I must go to the Central Plains."

Madam Yan was in a panic. She could tell from Lu Li’s expressions that he was not joking. He really wanted to go…

Madam Yan didn’t want to live in the small world with no more ambition nor did she want to experience another fight like this.

She thought of an idea. Madam Yan got up, walked over to Lu Li, dropped to one knee, looked up to Lu Li and said, "Young Master Lu, I am sorry. I am swearing my allegiance to you on behalf of the Bai Family. You will be the master of the Bai Family from now on. The Bai Family will do everything you tell us to do… and so will I."

Madam Yan was on her knees and her neckline was open. Lu Li looked down. Not only could he see Madam Yan’s beautiful face, but also her raised bosoms.

Bai Yan would do everything?

There were many things hidden between the lines and her answer was quite seductive. Lu Li was certain by the looks of Madam Yan that, on his word, Madam Yan would undress and let him do whatever he wanted…

Situation determined what a person should behave. Du Zheng killed the Old Man of Heaven Prison and Bai Xi because of Lu Li, and yet Madam Yan didn’t dare to have any discontent.

Her nickname was Black Widow and she was a smart person!

She knew that only by relying on Lu Li could the Bai Family survive at the Thousand-island Lake and could she own power and status. Lu Li was in no want of powerful warriors so everything that she could do to hold onto Lu Li was through her body…
