Chapter 241: Their King

The spot where Lu Li disembarked was not where White Beard was, but where the Poisonous Scorpion Army was.
Lu Li ran forward along the route the bandits took. There were clear marks along the way, many trees were cut off, and many Inhibition Formations were sabotaged.
The Blood Evil Island was not a large one. With Lu Li's current speed, he could cross the entire island in an hour, provided that there was no Inhibition Formation. Now that he had reached the Soul Pond Realm, his speed was elevated so he didn't rely on his Burning Blood Skill to speed up. He was convinced that he could arrive at the battlefield in no time.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
As he had thought, in the time for two or three incense sticks to burn, there came some noises of explosion. He could tell from the distance that some Xuan Energy was being released and mountains were hit.
"Burning Blood!"
Lu Li shouted as he utilized his Bloodline Skill. He wanted to see if he could mobilize his Bloodline Skills and if the duration of the second Bloodline Skill had been extended.
When he did the Bloodline Awakening, the duration of his Burning Blood Skill was only the time for one incense stick to burn. When he reached the Spirit Sea Realm, the duration was extended to an hour. Since he reached the Soul Pond Realm, theoretically speaking, the duration should be longer.
The Silver Dragon mark on his back glistened as his body became stronger. A surge of soaring power went through every piece of his bones and muscles. His pupils turned silver, and he had once again transformed into a human-shaped dragon.
"It's good!"
Lu Li was relieved to see that he could still use his Bloodline Skills. Changes happened when he was casting his Soul Pond. There was an extra dragon mark inside his Soul Pond, and the animal tooth pendant was nowhere to be found. At least, he still got his Bloodline Skills and his fighting ability. There was nothing wrong with his body which was a big relief.
Lu Li ran into a forest and called Little White out to explore the way as there were many Inhibition Formations inside.
Little White led the way happily. Lu Li sneaked forward like a poisonous snake towards the center of the battlefield.
The hottest spot of the battle was right in the mountains. Lu Li glanced over after he ran out of the forest and saw people everywhere. There were at least 1000 lake bandits but only a few hundred warriors on the side of the Blood Evil Island. Two Patriarchs at the peak of the Spirit Sea Realm were putting up a desperate fight with some Green Dwarfs.
Tragic!
Lu Li saw many bodies on the ground. They were all warriors in the Blood Evil Island armors. A simple glance revealed the number of deaths to Lu Li, at least a thousand, including a few leaders that Lu Li was familiar with.
"Three Soul Pond Realm warriors?"
Lu Li glared at the three warriors of the Soul Pond Realm that were fighting the Green Dwarfs. He jumped up and yelled in midair, "Go to hell—"
Lu Li didn't use Dragon Roar Skill, just an angry yell. But it was still loud. The yell resounded through an area with a radius of more than 500 yards. Many warriors that were engaged in combat were trembling.
Many people looked over, only to see the shadows of Lu Li went from one to two, and then to four. There was a queue of illusionary images of Lu Li in midair, very disturbing.
"Island Owner!"
Many Blood Evil Island warriors were covered in blood. They were almost reduced to tears as, for them, Lu Li was their supreme king. At the most desperate moment, their king had come to the rescue. They almost dropped to their knees to worship Lu Li.
Lu Li leaped forward for dozens of feet and stormed into the crowds with his more than a dozen shadows. With one swing of his Mighty Heaven Halberd towards the front, three lake bandits were cut in half and smashed away.
"Bang, bang, bang~"
Lu Li killed his way forward at a horrible speed. None of the warriors that he came into contact with could be a worthy opponent for him. All the bandits that died had no complete body. Lu Li was unstoppable.
The team leader of these bandits was an old man at the peak of the Soul Pond Realm. Nick-named Poisonous Scorpion, the old man had small eyes filled with diabolic glares. Seeing that Lu Li was running towards him, he let go of the few Green Dwarfs that he was dealing with and said to another two bandits at the Soul Pond Realm, "Let's work together and get Lu Li injured first!"
The order they got was to kill every one of the Blood Evil Island and injure Lu Li, but not to kill him. Given how reputable Lu Li was, Poisonous Scorpion could not afford to be careless. He called upon the other two Soul Pond Realm bandits to help him out.
Poisonous Scorpion already had more warriors of the Soul Pond Realm but Hunchback Tian killed two of them during the first round of attack. The Green Dwarfs killed two more so there were only three Soul Pond Realm bandits left in total.
As far as Poisonous Scorpion was concerned, the three of them should be able to injure Lu Li who had clearly just reached the Soul Pond Realm. How could Lu Li be their match?
"Roar~"
Surprisingly, when the three bandits were about 30 feet from Lu Li, the latter suddenly shouted an earth-shaking shout. This was no angry yell. This was the Dragon Roar.
Sky was almost falling because of this roar. Everyone nearby felt the ground was shaking, causing them to become dizzy. The space trembled and gales suddenly blowed. Many warriors' eardrums were pierced through and blood came out from their eyes, mouths and noses. They were rolling around on the ground, howling in pain.
Poisonous Scorpion and the other two Soul Pond Realm bandits had the same reactions. From their eardrums and their souls came fits of pain, as if there were countless needles sticking into their eardrums and into their souls.
In addition to the lake bandits, many warriors of the Blood Evil Island were also influenced. They, too, hugged their heads and shouted in pain. Lu Li's Dragon Roar was so intimidating that nobody in the area with a radius of more than 100 yards could stand up.
"Eh?"
Lu Li himself was shocked. How come the Dragon Roar became so much more powerful?
He remembered the situation when he fought at the Di Long Tribe against warriors of the Bu Family clearly. Back then, Dragon Roar could influence warriors of the peak of the Soul Pond Realm, but it was very limited. However, at this moment, Poisonous Scorpion was rolling on the ground with his head between his hands.
"Could it be because of the Soul Pond? Or the dragon pattern in the Soul Pond?"
Lu Li recalled when Bai Qiuxue told him that this Skill was of the Soul Category. After he built the Soul Pond, which had a weird dragon pattern in it, his soul became stronger. It might have something to do with the elevated power of Dragon Roar.
"Swish!"
After a second of pause, Lu Li came back to his senses. He rushed on, hacked his Mighty Heaven Halberd along the way and killed bandits as if they were mere livestock.
"Roar~"
By the time Poisonous Scorpion and the other two regained calmness, Lu Li had approached them. Another Dragon Roar made the three fall to the ground, and he easily killed three bandits of the Soul Pond Realm.
But the Green Dwarfs were not impacted. Lu Li saw a patriarch hiding in the forest behind the Green Dwarfs. He shouted to the Patriarch, "Can you breathe? If you can, come out and control the Green Dwarfs to kill all the lake bandits. Leave no one behind."
Of course that patriarch was alive. Otherwise, the Green Dwarfs would be under no control. He was experiencing pain in his eardrums and his soul, so he could not hear what Lu Li was saying.
Fortunately, he could tell what Lu Li wanted. Soon, he came to his senses and started to put on a killing spree with the Green Dwarfs he controlled.
Lu Li ran to the distance to support the next battlefield since the Green Dwarfs could manage here with no Soul Pond Realm bandits any more.
...
"Island Owner, it's Island Owner!"
"Our Island Owner is here!"
The two loud roars alarmed the other patriarchs of the Blood Evil Island that were fighting on two other sides. The only one that could let out such loud roars was Lu Li. They all heard stories about Lu Li's Dragon Roar Skill.
The situation on these two sides were much worse. Almost every single warrior of the Blood Evil Island had fought to their deaths. Hunchback Tian was under tight pursuit by White Beard; he was badly wounded and he even lost an arm.
"My Master, finally, you have come..."
Hearing Lu Li's roar, Hunchback Tian almost shed tears. He thought that after Patriarch Seven sent the signal, Lu Li would be here right away. On the contrary, Lu Li got here after the time for several incense stick to burn. If he got here any later, Hunchback Tian would die as a martyr.
Hunchback Tian promptly took control of his Fate Wheel and flew towards Lu Li. The strong-built White Beard sneered behind Hunchback Tian. As White Beard saw it, the most powerful warrior at the Blood Evil Island was Hunchback Tian. Lu Li? What could he do?
"Idiot!"
Seeing that White Beard pursued him, Hunchback Tian showed signs of disdain in his eyes. Lu Li could kill warriors at the peak of the Fate Wheel Realm. White Beard was nothing...
"Young Master!"
At the dock, Xu Sihe heard the roars. He said with concern, "Should we leave here now? I don't think it's safe for us to be here."
"What are you afraid of?"
Xu Yaoyang said casually, "I think White Beard can capture Lu Li. What is more, even if White Beard cannot do it, Lu Li wouldn't be courageous enough to kill us. I will watch Lu Li beg and kneel to me like a dog with my own eyes."
