Chapter 274: Slave of the Noble Lord Realm

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

Yu Huashen was struggling. Not surrendering meant death. Based on what Lu Li had been doing lately, Yu Huashen knew he could not survive. Young as Lu Li was, he was a cruel character. His hands were covered in blood.

Surrendering?

To be a slave for a guy of the Soul Pond Realm? Then Yu Huashen’s reputation would be destroyed. Powerful warriors all had pride and dignity. To cultivate to his current realm took a lot of efforts and he once was one of the most powerful men of the Northern Desert.

Also, Lu Li had killed Yu Lingxu, not to mention Yu Feijia and Yu Feinong died because of Lu Li. One of the three Eternal Realm warriors that came with him was his protégé and he was killed by Ming Yu.

Becoming a slave for his own enemy? It was harder than death.

On the other hand… if not, then there would be no more Yu Family. With the three Noble Lord Realm warriors, it was a piece of cake for Lu Li to utterly destroy the Yu Family. Any one of them could level the Yu Emperor City to the ground.

Seeing that Yu Huashen’s eyes flicker and his facial expressions change, Lu Li knew the latter was struggling.

Lu Li thought about it and said, “Yu Huashen, don’t be so conflicted. Winners take all. This is normal. Yu Lun is with me now and consider how smart he is, to serve me will not shame you. Instead, the Yu Family may rise because of it and this will be a blessing.”

Lu Li bluffed away and made himself a huckster. He was very interested in taking a slave of the Noble Lord Realm.

The most important thing was—with Yu Huashen, he could have four Noble Lord Realm warriors working for him. There were four at the Bai Emperor Mountain and Du Zheng might not show up, so Lu Li had a chance of winning in a fight of four against four.

Yu Huashen was still struggling and wrestling inside. He made up his mind and said, “Lu Li, if you don’t tell me who you are, I’d rather die!”

Yu Huashen wouldn’t buy that three Noble Lord Realm warriors would follow Lu Li if there was nothing special about his identity.

He had pride and dignity and so did Ming Yu and the others. Who would be willing to follow a young guy at the Soul Pond Realm? Talented as Lu Li was, he didn’t even awake any Bloodlines. What kind of future would he have?

Now, Lu Li was the one hesitating. He didn’t want to reveal his identity. Or rather…he didn’t want to rely on Lu Family’s reputation. He was not familiar to the Lu Family, nor was he attached to the family.

From a young age, he had been counting on himself. He felt like he would become a playboy like Xu Yaoyang if he relied on the Lu Family.

After the time for half an incense stick to burn, Lu Li finally made up his mind. He would not use Lu Family’s reputation but he could borrow his father’s fame. He answered, “I’ll tell you what. My father’s Realm is higher than yours and he can best warriors of the same realm.”

“Human Sovereign!”

Yu Huashen’s expressions changed, then he remembered a man, a young and powerful warrior that used to make trouble at the Bai Emperor Mountain. Even though the Bai Family sealed off the information, but Yu Huashen still managed to learn about it.

“Lu Li? Lu?” Yu Huashen’s eyes glowed. He asked in a deep voice, “Is your Father Lu Renhuang?”

Lu Li nodded slightly. Yu Huashen trembled and put on a bitter smile. He cursed Yu Feijia for hundreds of times in his heart.

Yu Feijia offended the son and daughter of Lu Renhuang? Lu Renhuang reached the Human Sovereign Realm more than 20 years ago and he almost killed the Old Man of Heaven Prison in one move. It was quite understandable how come three warriors of the Noble Lord Realm would follow Lu Li.

After some consideration, Yu Huashen made up his mind. He said with his teeth clenched, “It is true that serving you is not a disgrace, but I want you to ensure the safety of the Yu Family. Also… if the Yu Family is in distress, you must offer your help.”

Yu Huashen knew that once he followed Lu Li, he could no longer take care of the Yu Family. Without a Noble Lord Realm warrior there, the Yu Family could be destroyed by other families.

Lu Li sunk into deep thoughts. He had to go to the Central Plains after he was done with the matter at hand. The Central Plains had so many powerful warriors that it was impossible for the Cyan Phoenix Race warriors to go with him. Of course, he would want Ming Yu and Yu Huashen to go so they could look after each other. If he were to bring Yu Huashen to the Central Plains, how could Yu Huashen worry about the Yu Family?

Lu Li threw a glance at Ye Cha who understood Lu Li’s meaning and nodded.

Lu Li was relieved. Ye Cha had signaled that he could take care of the Yu Family. Looking at Yu Huashen, Lu Li said, “I promise you. If you still have concerns, I can make a vow.”

“No need!” Yu Huashen decisively said, “I don’t think Lu Renhuang’s son is going to lie.”

With that said, Yu Feijia lowed his head, bowed and cupped his fists as he said, “Young Master!”

“Young Master?”

Lu Li put on a forced smile. So it seemed that Yu Huashen hadn’t recognized him. He had only lowered his head because of Lu Renhuang.

But on second thoughts, Lu Li realized it was understandable. To admit defeat to a warrior of the Human Sovereign Realm would spare the ridicule from others for Yu Huashen. Lu Renhuang could best all the other warriors of the Human Sovereign Realm. If it were not for the fact that he was trapped under the Ice Abyss, all the warriors of the Northern Desert would bow to him.

Lu Li glanced over to Ye Cha who took out three white pellets. Throwing them to Yu Huashen, Ye Cha said, “Take them, the Soul Worm Pellets. Your soul is strong so we must plant three Soul Worms in you.”

Yu Huashen took the pellets over and a glint of pain and shame appeared in his eyes. He closed his eyes, sighed and his face looked like he was ten years older.

Raising his trembling hand, he threw the pellets into his mouth. His face twitched, like the ugly face of a terrifying beast.

Ming Yu, Ye Xiao and Ye Cha could tell how Yu Huashen was feeling. When the Soul Worms were implanted in him, it was not just freedom that he was going to lose—it was dignity.

It was like the first time when hookers did business. They were not selling their bodies, but their dignity.

Ye Cha took out a jade talisman and as the Xuan Energy in his hand glowed, the jade talisman lit up. Ming Yu, Ye Cha and Ye Xiao all used their psychic power to sense the Soul Worms in Yu Huashen.

After the time for one incense stick to burn, the jade talisman in Ye Cha’s hand stopped glowing. Ming Yu said to Lu Li in a low voice, “The three Soul Worms are now all in Yu Huashen’s soul. Based on Yu Huashen’s realm, he cannot kill the Soul Worms. Also, as soon as he touches one, the other two will eat his Soul Pond up immediately and he will instantly die. This kind of Soul Worms are good ones. There is no problem.”

Ye Cha flew over and handed the jade talisman to Lu Li.

Only after he converted the jade talisman could he build a connection with the Soul Worms. Yu Huashen then wouldn’t dare to harm Lu Li as the latter was the master of the Soul Worms. Yu Huashen wouldn’t even dare thinking of killing Lu Li or disobeying his orders since the Soul Worms would start protecting the master and eat up Yu Huashen’s Soul Pond.

Lu Li released his Xuan Energy to convert the jade talisman. Soon, he felt he was linked to the Soul Worms spiritually.

He nodded satisfactorily and said, “Yu Huashen, all our past hatred is gone now. I will free Yu Lun and ask him to go back to the Yu Family and take control. I will deliver on my words.”

“Thank you, Young Master!”

Yu Huashen bowed again. In such a short span of time, wrinkles had climbed to the corner of Yu Huashen’s eyes and his hair was turning white near his ears. It could be told how much he was shocked just now.

“Let’s go back!”

Lu Li waved his hand. Ming Yu took him and walked on the tides. Soon, they rushed back to the Iron-armored Ships. The others followed. Seeing the dead bodies floating in the lake, Yu Huashen twitched his mouth and his eyes were filled with misery.

“Go back now. Later, I will send someone over to bury the bodies properly.”

Lu Li’s hatred to the Yu Family was not as strong after he enslaved Yu Huashen. Ashes to ashes. It was not too much to bury the deceased properly as a favor to Yu Huashen.

Ye Xiao controlled the Iron-armored Ship and flew towards the God-down City. They were not far from there and arrived in just over an hour.

Lu Li took the lead and hopped off with the other four. When Pei An and the others saw Yu Huashen standing behind Lu Li with respect, they were so shocked that they were as dull as goose and they stared dumbfounded without being able to utter one word…

Without paying attention to the warriors, Lu Li walked into the main hall with the four. As soon as he went inside, he asked Yu Huashen, “Is there a chance of winning if we go to the Bai Emperor Mountain?”

Yu Huashen answered in a deep voice after some thoughts, “If Du Zheng doesn’t take any actions, then there is a 50% chance that we can win. If he does, then zero.”
