Chapter 453: A Warning

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

Bai Xiashuang came. Lu Li didn't blame her for not following directions. He was guilty to see her.

He understood the relationship between Bai Qiuxue and Bai Xiashuang. It might be said that they shared the same life. If one of the twins died, the other one might die from sickness as well.

They were bonded by blood and they were close.

After she fell to the ground, Bai Xiashuang picked herself up again while trembling. She was trembling, partly because of the coldness, partly because of the internal struggle and fear.

She walked towards Bai Qiuxue step by step, not giving Lu Li another look. She reached the ice bed, touched the ice covering Bai Qiuxue. Then a saber appeared in Bai Xiashuang's hand. She was ready to cut the ice open to save Bai Qiuxue.

Lu Li moved. He grabbed Bai Qiuxue's hands, holding her tightly in his arms as she was still trying to free herself.

He said in a low voice, "Bai Xiashuang, don't do this. Your sister is alive. If you do this, she will die."

Bai Xiashuang stopped. She looked at Lu Li with her tear-filled eyes and asked, "Lu Li, what has happened to my sister? What? I am afraid. I cannot lose her."

"She is okay!"

Lu Li's heart was almost broken. He patted Bai Xiashuang's head and said, "Your sister is poisoned. I have her frozen to stop the poison from spreading out. Don't worry. I will cure her. I swear on my life."

"Um!"

Somehow, Bai Xiashuang felt reassured. She didn't think too much about Lu Li's determined looks or his vow as she was simple-minded. She believed that Lu Li would honor his words.

"I want to bring sister back. I want her back."

Bai Xiashuang said after some thoughts. Lu Li shook his head and said, "Don't move her until she is cured. Once you break the ice, your sister will die. If you worry about her, stay here with her for a sometime."

"Okay!"

Bai Xiashuang nodded and said, "I will be here with my sister until she wakes up. I will stay here and won't go anywhere."

Lu Li exhaled. Somehow, he felt relieved. Bai Xiashuang and Bai Qiuxue were bonded. Bai Qiuxue would sense that Bai Xiashuang was here with her and thus feel less afraid or lonely.

Lu Li had many things on his plate. He had to find a cure for Bai Qiuxue. For sure, if he was free, he would be here, but he would worry less if Bai Xiashuang was here.

"Okay. I will ask them to build a fortress nearby."

Lu Li thought about and continued, "Live here. I will have people deliver you the Mystical Materials and pellets you need for cultivation. Tell the servants if you have anything you want to eat or use. Keep your sister company. I will try my best to find her a cure. Trust me."

Looking at Bai Qiuxue, Bai Xiashuang was stricken with grief. She said with tears in her eyes, "Don't worry. Lu Li, I will be here with my sister. Nothing will happen. I won't do anything to her."

"Okay, be with her."

Lu Li walked out. At the door, he warned Bai Xiashuang again, "Remember that you cannot move your sister. She will die."

Bai Xiashuang nodded with tears. Lu Li told the three patriarchs of the Bai Family outside, "From now on, you stay on guard here and don't go anywhere. Anyone who want the twins harm will have to answer to you. Do you understand?"

"Yes, Emperor!"

The three patriarchs of the Bai Family bowed and accepted the order. Lu Li signaled to the Fourth Patriarch of the Cyan Phoenix Race. They walked to the side and Lu Li asked, "How is it going with God of Meng?"

"Everything is fine."

Fourth Patriarch nodded and said, "A large quantity of Mystical Materials have been delivered back, and there is a mountain of them now. A flying Hag sent a message to me, saying that God of Meng and my Clan Leader have already taken over seven or eight major races, and they are about to unify the Deserted World."

"Okay!"

Lu Li was not worried. God of Meng alone would be able to sweep across the Deserted World which was practically at the fingertips.

Lu Li took out some cooked meat. Fourth Patriarch hurried someone to cook some dinner, but Lu Li refused.

He was in deep thoughts. He didn't have to worry too much about Bai Qiuxue now that Bai Xiashuang was here. He must resume his work.

There were so many Mystical Materials waiting to be sold, and then the Mystical Materials for the Titan Race patriarchs must be brought back. If one or two of the Titan Race and Chee-ker could reach the Human Sovereign Realm, Lu Li would be more empowered. At least, he would have a coping measure next time when Lu Fenghuo and Lu Suan developed a scheme against him.

However…

How to sell?

The Northern Deserted was in short of resources and lacked good Mystical Materials. Bringing a bunch of rare Mystical Materials to sell would cause attention from major families. When they tracked down the sources of supplies, the Deserted World would be exposed. Even if not, the major families would grow greedy…

While Lu Li was thinking, a small beast rushed into Lu Li's arms.

"Squeak, squeak~"

Little White had been wandering around lately. Fourth Patriarch of the Cyan Phoenix Race knew it was Lu Li's pet, so he told Hags to keep an eye on it and never hurt it.

Little White was bored after sleeping for such a long time and not allowed to go out by Lu Li. When it got the chance, it began to run in the wildness, chasing a bunch of beasts around.

"Squeak, squeak!"

Little White screamed fondly. Lu Li noticed the worry in its eyes. He smiled and patted its little head.

"Crack~"

At the same time, a jade talisman hung on Lu Li's belt broke. A coldness flashed in Lu Li's eyes. He put Little White on his shoulder and took out the jade talisman.

The jade talisman had a special meaning. Lu Li had several of them on him with different signs. This one breaking meant that there was some trouble, but it was not fatally dangerous.

"Song Qi is dead. Are there any more from the Song Family?"

Lu Li frowned. He didn't want to go out now. Deserted World was yet to be unified, and he was concerned about Bai Qiuxue. But since Madam Yan had sent a message, there must be something she could not deal with.

On second thought, he walked in and talked with Bai Xiashuang for a bit, telling her to stay here with Bai Qiuxue. At the same time, he took out some Pellets of Delicacy and Soul Crystals from his Interspatial Ring, enough for Bai Xiashuang to reach the middle stage of the Fate Wheel Realm.

Lu Li called over some flying Hags, ordering them to question about the situation of God of Meng through their unique ways. In addition, he also asked them to tell Ye Cha to go to the exit of the Deserted World and to let Chee-ker come back.

The flying Hags left. Lu Li waited quietly in the fortress. Half a day later, the flying Hags came back and communicated with Fourth Patriarch who told Lu Li, "Everything is going well. In at most half a month, the Deserted World will be unified. My Clan Leader is on his way to the exit, and Chee-ker is on her way back."

"Good!"

Lu Li was happy to know. He told Fourth Patriarch to take care of Bai Qiuxue and Bai Xiashuang and knock the later out if she dared to act rashly. Lu Li asked Fourth Patriarch to commit suicide if anything happened to the twins.

After that was said, Lu Li left. He was the emperor of the Northern Deserted. The Northern Desert might become unstable after not appearing for such a long time. He must go now that Madam Yan sent him a warning.
