It was only the beginning of spring, and the lake was very cold. Lu Li had an injury on his leg and groaned in pain as soon as he entered the water.
Liu Yi had good water skills. She grabbed Lu Li with one hand and quickly slid the other hand. She kicked her legs rhythmically and led Lu Li to swim away like a sharp sword.
"Thump, thump~"
People kept breaking out, rushing into the lake and swimming towards the distance. Strangely, when they jumped into the lake, the pursuers behind them stopped chasing them, as if there was a magical power in the lake that prevented them from daring to kill them. One step across the line.
The lake is naturally an ordinary lake, and there is no magic power in the lake. What has magic power is the rules of the old man from Heaven Prison. Many years ago, the old man Tian Yu passed down a message that once anyone enters the lake, outsiders are not allowed to hunt him down, otherwise his clan will be destroyed.
After this rule was established, no family dared to violate it, because any family that violated it was exterminated without exception, including a fourth-grade family.
The warriors who intercepted were all families from nearby counties. They were just helping the Yu family and getting some benefits to please the Yu family. Who would dare to gamble with the lives of the entire family
People kept breaking through, and the Seven Elders and others rushed into the lake. Although many of the elders in the Divine Sea Realm were injured, all of them rushed into the lake except one who was hacked to death.
However, more than half of the Xuanwu Realm warriors were beheaded, and many spiritual materials carried on their backs were scattered all over the ground. The seventh elder and others looked at it without tears. The wealth they brought out this time was not much, but now most of it is gone...
But it was a blessing to be able to save a life. Fortunately, I rushed quickly this time and the Yu family's Soul Pond Realm warriors didn't arrive, otherwise none of them would have been able to escape.
"Walk!"
The seventh elder roared with grief and anger, and swam away with each other. They are all powerful warriors. Swimming is a very simple matter and they are very fast.
There is a small island more than ten miles ahead. Although it is only as big as a courtyard, it can allow everyone to rest and gather. Everyone swam that way with all their strength and soon reached the island.
“…”
After landing on the shore, Liu Yi and the elders looked at each other speechlessly. Looking at the remaining fifty people, endless sadness filled their hearts.
In the past, the overlord of Wuling City had a family with at most three to four thousand people in the Xuanwu Realm and more than 70 elders in the Divine Sea Realm. Now there are only such a few people left...
Only five or six sacks of spiritual treasures were left. There was a sack containing all the Liu family's earth-level mystical skills, and now they were all lost. The Liu family's vitality was completely damaged this time.
Everyone silently took out the healing potions to treat their injuries. Lu Li also sat up cross-legged and swallowed two healing potions.
Entering Qiandao Lake does not mean that it is completely safe. Qiandao Lake has the rules of Qiandao Lake, and killings here are more frequent. It would not be completely safe until we reached the island owner's territory that the seventh elder knew.
People were swimming towards this side one after another, and people were vaguely seen further away. The Seventh Elder and others observed and felt slightly comforted. Elder Lu from the south swam over with a group of more than ten people.
When Elder Lu and others came ashore, the Seventh Elder immediately asked: "Lu Laosan, how is the situation? Where are the other two disciples?"
Elder Lu's face was full of sorrow, he shook his head and sighed: "The team in the north is expected to be in trouble, and I don't know how many people can escape. A few elders in the south have probably broken through, and how many others can escape depends on luck..."
“…”
Everyone looked at each other speechlessly again. It seemed that no more than a hundred people could successfully escape into Qiandao Lake this time, and the rest of the Liu family would stay by the lake forever.
"Yu Feijia! Yu family!"
The seventh elder roared with grief and anger. He gritted his teeth and said, "Young sons of the Liu family, you must always remember the humiliation and hatred that the Liu family has suffered today. Don't forget it for generations to come. If the Liu family can rise one day, the entire Yu family will be destroyed!"
"The Mie Yu family is full!"
Some of the young Liu family members roared angrily. At this moment, they all hated the Yu family to their cores.
"Mie Yu's family is full?"
There was a hint of bitterness and ridicule in the corner of Liu Yi's mouth. There were only a few people left in the Liu family, and they might all be buried in Qiandao Lake at any time. Whether they can survive is still unknown, let alone destroying a powerful fifth-grade family.
Everyone continued to heal and rest. After half an hour, two more people swam over. It seemed that all the others had been killed.
"Walk!"
The seventh elder waited for two sticks of incense to make sure that no one rushed into the lake, and ordered everyone to get off the lake and swim to the west. It was too close to the shore for fear of danger, so we originally made an appointment to meet at Sunset Island.
Sunset Island is a relatively large island east of Qiandao Lake. According to the markings on the map, Sunset Island is a large round island and is easy to find.
The distance on the map was very close, but everyone swam for more than half an hour before they saw a round island in the distance. Fortunately, they were all warriors, and the injuries were easily treated without bleeding. Ordinary people would have drowned long ago.
"It's Lao Jiu and the others!"
After swimming several hundred meters forward, the seventh elder exclaimed. Everyone glanced around and saw more than twenty familiar figures, but... the Ninth Elder and the others seemed to be in a bad situation
Because the more than twenty people were in the water, there were dozens of black-armored warriors on the shore pointing weapons at them, as if they would not be allowed to go ashore.
The Seventh Elder and others hurriedly swam over, and the Ninth Elder also spotted them and shouted. Seeing that there were only more than seventy people including the Seven Elders, everyone turned extremely pale.
"Lao Jiu, what's going on?"
The seventh elder swam over, looked at the black-armored warriors on the shore and asked in a low voice.
The Ninth Elder knew that this was not the time to talk, so he quickly explained: "This is the people from Sunset Island. They said that to go to the island, you need to hand over Xuan Jing, ten Xuan Jing per person."
"Ten coins per person?"
A trace of anger flashed in the eyes of the seventh elder. A tiger was bullied by a dog. The people of Sunset Island are too cruel.
"What is Xuan Jing?"
Lu Li was a little confused and asked Liu Yi beside him. Liu Yi explained in a low voice: "Ordinary people need gold leaves to buy things, but warriors need Xuan Jing to buy treasures, spiritual materials and weapons. In other words, Xuan Jing is what circulates among warriors. currency.”
"oh."
Lu Li understood. The seventh elder over there took a few breaths and said to the black-armored warrior on the shore: "Brothers, I am a cousin with a blood feud. I came here to join him this time. I hope you can give me a convenience."
When the warriors on Sunset Island heard the name of the blood enemy, their expressions became a little better. A warrior in the late stage of the Divine Sea Realm put away his weapon and said: "It turns out that he is a relative of the blood island master, okay... we will give the blood island master a face, you guys Just hand over five hundred Xuan Crystals for one hundred people. Sunset Island has Sunset Island’s rules, and there’s nothing we can do about it.”
"good!"
The seventh elder gritted his teeth and agreed. The people on Sunset Island retreated and everyone went ashore, using their mysterious energy to evaporate the water vapor.
The seventh elder glanced left and right and saw many huge warships parked in a dock in the north. He took a few steps forward and said with cupped hands: "Brother, we want to go to Blood Demon Island. Can your ship send us there?" Let’s go together?”
"no problem!"
The Divine Sea Realm of Sunset Island nodded generously, and then added: "But it can't be given in vain. Blood Demon Island is two days away from here. You can give a thousand Xuanjing together, and we will ensure that you arrive safely. Bloody Island."
"So expensive?" The seventh elder's face twitched and he felt a little painful.
"Hmph!"
The people from Sunset Island sneered: "Without a boat, it would take you at least ten days to swim there. And Qiandao Lake is not outside. Water bandits are rampant here. Maybe you will all be dead by the time you swim there. Take our boat from Sunset Island, There is no water bandit within a hundred miles who dares to intercept and kill a thousand Xuanjing. This depends on the friendship price given by the owner of the Blood Island. If I give it to Xuanjing, I won’t be able to get on the boat.”
