Chapter 249: I Will Hate You

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

"Fake token?

"

Lu Li frowned and asked with confusion,

"Lord Ming Yu, why would you use a fake token? Why did you pretend that you have made a mistake?

"

"Because of Bai Yan!

"

Ming Yu explained,

"Because Bai Yan was trying to see it. I think you must have sensed it. Since you were not ready to admit that you are the son of Lu Renhuang, I put on a show to cover up your identity. In this way, I can protect you secretly.

"

''Madam Yan!

"

Lu Li tumbled to the fact. That day, he was unwilling to reveal that he was the son of Lu Renhuang because there was a powerful warrior nearby in hiding. He didn't expect that it was Madam Yan.

Lu Li paused for a moment and asked again,

"Lord Ming Yu, my father really… once helped you greatly?

"

"Of course!

"

Ming Yu nodded and seriously answered,

"As a matter of fact, most of the materials I used in cultivation were given by your father. The fact that I can understand ‘Force’ was because your father inspired me. Your father had a meeting with the Old Man of Heaven Prison which was why the Bai Family doesn’t dare to do anything to me. Your father had given me a new life. I have made a vow that I will treat him as my Master and be by his side for the rest of my life.

"

"Oh, I see.

"

Lu Li understood. Many doubts he had were resolved. Ming Yu was an enigma, but it was all because of Lu Renhuang, Lu Li's father.

"But...

"

Lu Li had another question. He said with a frown,

"Then how come you never went to find me and my sister? We were bullied at the Di Long Tribe for more than 10 years and my sister almost died. She was brought to the Cyan Plains.

"

"I am sorry, Young Master!

"

Ming Yu looked guilty. He replied,

"I have an enemy at the Heaven Cold Kingdom so I am afraid to leave the Thousand-island Lake. I am always alone, so I don't know much about what is going on outside, nor did I care. If it were not for the fact that Bai Yan sent someone to remind me, I wouldn't know about you. I thought that my Master had gone back to the Lu Family at the Central Plains, and I wanted to go and look for him at the Central Plains after I reached the Noble Lord Realm.

"

''Oh, I see!

"

Everything was clear now. When Ming Yu took out Lu Renhuang's portrait, Lu Li had established his trust in him. Lu Li never saw a painting of Lu Renhuang, but he was sure that this was his father after one look. This was a miraculous sensation.

Plus, Ming Yu had helped him out at the Cliff of Purgatory and the Heaven Martial Kingdom. By now. Lu Li was already treating Ming Yu as his friend.

"Boom, boom, boom~

"

From the northwest came more sounds of explosion. Bai Leng and Madam Yan were probably attacking Yu Feinong right now. Lu Li was not the least worried as next to him stood a warrior of the Noble Lord Realm and he had understood the

"Force

".

Lu Li asked in a low voice after some thoughts,

"Lord Ming Yu, my father once fought enemies at the Northern Desert. Will we be in trouble now that your identity and mine are revealed?

"

"It's okay.

"

Ming Yu answered after he considered it,

"It has been thousands of years since the last warrior of the Human Sovereign Realm appeared. More than 10 years have passed, and no enemy has been looking for him. I think it's okay now.

"

Ming Yu continued after a pause,

"Of course, Young Master, you'd better remain low key. I will try to protect you in secret in the future. My Master's identity is special. His enemy must not be of some small family. Oh… Young Master, do you know where my Master is?

"

"I don't know!

"

It was better to be careful. Lu Li didn't reveal Lu Renhuang's whereabouts. He said,

"When I was born, my parents went missing. I didn't hear from them for all those years. Nobody from the Lu Family ever came to find me.

"

"Lord Ming Yu!

"

Lu Li looked at Ming Yu solemnly and said,

"Can you bring me to the Central Plains? I want to go back to the Lu Family and find some information about my parents.

"

"Young Master, you just call me Ming Yu. When you call me Lord, I don't know how to react.

" Ming Yu seriously said,

"I can take you to the Central Plains, but I need three months. I have some matters I need to deal with.

"

"Okay!

"

Lu Li looked excited. With the protection of Ming Yu, he could go back to the Lu Family easily. As long as he could get back, everything would be fine.

"Boom, boom, boom~

"

The sounds of explosion was getting louder and louder. Lu Li looked over there and asked,

"Later on, Madam Yan will try to make some trouble for me. Ming Yu, can you handle it?

"

"Of course.

"

Ming Yu casually said,

"The Old Man of Heaven Prison has a deal with your Father. They cannot lay a finger on me. I am not afraid of Bai Xi, so there is nobody that can harm you at the Thousand-island Lake. If Bai Yan dares to do anything, I will take her down and you can do anything you want to her.

"

"Okay!

"

Lu Li walked directly to the forest with Hunchback Tian and Ming Yu, with Little White leading the way. Lu Li wanted to wait for Madam Yan at the Blood Evil Fortress with the gates wide open and talk to her openly.

Lu Li felt more confident with a warrior of the Noble Lord Realm that had perceived

"Force

".

Sounds were dying down at the northwest. The fight was probably over. Bai Leng had several warriors of the Eternal Realm with him. If he could not take Yu Feinong and the other one down, Bai Leng wouldn't be qualified as the third most powerful warrior of the Thousand-island Lake.

Hunchback Tian followed Lu Li and Ming Yu, all tense and too nervous to breathe.

From the conversation between Lu Li and Ming Yu, Hunchback Tian learned much information. He had become more respectful of Lu Li. Previously, he was not unwilling to admit Lu Li as his master, now he was.

"Young Master, your little beast is wonderful. It should be of ancient birth.

"

Ming Yu said, looking at Little White that was leading the way happily. His eyes glowed. Lu Li of course knew how powerful Little White was so he nodded but said nothing.

When the three walked out of the forest, Lu Li suddenly took out his Ghost Mask and handed it over to Ming Yu,

"Put on this mask. Don't reveal your identity if there is no need. Don't call me Young Master with an outsider present.

"

"Okay!

"

Ming Yu put on the Ghost Mask. Instantly, the powerful qi and energy from him disappeared. The Ghost Mask was a Heaven Grade Xuan Artifact. Only warriors at a realm higher than the Noble Lord Realm could see his true face. This mask was very good and suitable for Ming Yu.

"Whoosh~

"

Just as the three arrived at the Blood Evil Fortress, there came a huge Iron-armored Ship. Lu Li waved his hand to disperse the warriors standing at the open area near the Blood Evil Island. He looked to the sky.

On the Iron-armored Ship, Bai Leng stood with pride. He was carrying two bloody human heads in his hands. On the deck were also Madam Yan, Bai Qiuxue, Bai Xiashuang and several patriarchs of the Bai Family.

Madam Yan looked downward and said to Bai Leng after some thoughts,

"Brother Leng, you go back and report back to Uncle Xi and ask our Family Patriarch to make a decision. I will go down there.

"

Bai Leng knew that the Blood Evil Island was an awful mess created by Madam Yan. She had to deal with it. Therefore, Bai Leng nodded indifferently.

"We will go, too!

"

Bai Qiuxue said nervously. She was afraid that Madam Yan would smash Lu Li to death in a fit of rage.

Madam Yan wanted to teach Lu Li a lesson, but she didn't expect that Lu Li would put on a killing spree. Madam Yan was ashamed. On top of that, a patriarch of the Eternal Realm of the Bai Family died because of this. Even though Bai Rui was killed by Yu Feinong, it was still related to Lu Li's matter.

"Bai Ge, bring the girls back and ground them for half a year!

"

Madam Yan shouted angrily and so loudly that Lu Li could hear it. Madam Yan's status at the Bai Family was very high. Bai Ge had to grab Bai Qiuxue and Bai Xiashuang and drag them away.

"Whoosh!'

Madam Yan flew down with a patriarch of the Eternal Realm with her. They landed on the open land in front of the Blood Evil Fortress.

The Iron-armored Ship flew to the distance. Bai Qiuxue faintly saw some blurry figures down on the ground. She shouted in her delicate voice,

"Auntie, if you kill Lu Li, I will hate you for the rest of my life.

"

"Um...

"

Lu Li was moved. He looked at the Iron-armored Ship in the distance, feeling touched. After the Iron-armored Ship disappeared, he looked back and bowed to Madam Yan,

"Greetings, Madam Yan, and my Lord. Please, let's go inside.

"

Madam Yan and the patriarch of the Bai Family looked towards Ming Yu who was wearing the Ghost Mask. They walked to the Might Hall with cold expressions, followed by Lu Li, Ming Yu and Hunchback Tian.

Madam Yan sat on the main seat, glanced over to Ming Yu and coldly said to Lu Li,

"Lu Li, you are really a piece of work! How dare you work with the Yu Family to kill Xu Chen and the others? You also cost a patriarch of the Bai Family. Do you want to destroy the Bai Family in a couple of days? Do you want to become the overlord of the Thousand-island Lake?

"

"...

"

Lu Li and Hunchback Tian rolled their eyes. Madam Yan had convicted him with such a great crime. Was she trying to force him to surrender?

If Lu Li still didn't know how to behave, Madam Yan might resort to cruel means.
