“Animal tooth pendant, not now!”

Lu Li prayed to himself. Last time during the Bloodline Awakening, the animal tooth pendant had the same reaction, glowing, emitting heat and shaking.

But it was weird this time. Lu Li was not enveloped by some mysterious power of the Bloodline Altar, and yet he could not move. He felt like he had lost control over his body.

To be exact…

His soul could not take control of his body!

This was terrifying. His own body getting out of control? Lu Li recalled what happened to Yu Lingxu at the Dragon King Mountain and became all the more alarmed.

Was there a soul of a demon lurking in the animal tooth pendant and it was trying to take over his body and destroy his own soul?

No matter how afraid Lu Li was, he could not move, nor could he do anything.

All he could feel was the animal tooth pendant getting hotter and hotter, brighter and brighter. Then he felt like his chest was burnt through like at the Bloodline Awakening. Then some unknown thing penetrated into his body.

He could tell it this time. Lu Li faintly sensed a shadow of a silver dragon roaring and moving along in his veins, rushing towards his Soul Pond.

Indeed…

Lu Li seemed to see a small silver dragon entering his brain and then thrusting forth into his Soul Pond. Right at that moment, the Soul Pond shone brightly. The few Golden Silks of tje Soul that would not come together merged.

“I am doomed. All is over!”

Now that all the Golden Silks of the Soul were integrated together, the Soul Pond was where Lu Li’s soul resided. However, there was a shadow of a silver dragon inside his soul and he could not move his body. What was the meaning of all this? It might be a sign that his body was controlled by the silver dragon.

Furthermore, usually, Bloodline Mark was on the neck, but Lu Li’s was on his back. The others only had one Bloodline Skill but he had two?

Lu Li was panic-stricken when all the thoughts came up. It was better if he could do anything, but there was nothing that he could do except for thinking…

After that small silver dragon entered the Soul Pond, it didn’t do anything. The Soul Pond kept glowing and Lu Li kept motionless against his will.

He had to wait for the Soul Pond to stabilize, for the moment when he could take control of his body, or the destruction of… his soul!

…

A new day had come, and White Beard enjoyed a good night of sleep. When he woke up, he even asked someone to fetch him some fish to cook him some soup.

Xu Sihe and Xu Yaoyang had already risen. White Beard sent someone over to deliver some fish soup, but the two were in no mood to enjoy. They dared not to leave their cabin. All they did was to send someone to urge White Beard to come over.

White Beard showed up late in the morning. He commanded to start the attack on the Blood Evil Island again under Xu Sihe’s and Xu Yaoyang’s pressure. However, judging by the way the armies moved, Xu Sihe and Xu Yaoyang could tell the situation would be just like the previous day, no result…

Noises and shouts of killing filled the entire morning. When the three armies of bandits retreated, surprisingly, only less than 10 warriors were killed, on both parties. Many bandits were even building fire and putting up pots on the beach, ready to cook lunch.

Xu Sihe and Xu Yaoyang couldn’t do anything even though they were fuming with wrath. After lunch, a mysterious man secretly boarded their battleship. It was Ding Gui.

The Ding Family of the Black Tooth Island was the overlord of the northern side of the Thousand-island Lake. White Beard and the other bandits were controlled by the Ding Family. Since Ding Gui, the Chief Patriarch of the Ding Family, was here, White Beard had to act properly.

“Attack now. You must take the Blood Evil Island down today!”

Ding Gui had given the ultimate order. White Beard promised, “Lord Gui, please put your mind at ease. We will be sleeping at the Blood Evil Fortress tonight. I will commit suicide if I cannot conquer the Blood Evil Island.”

White Beard strode outside, then shouted, “All of you, charge! Let’s take the Blood Evil Island before dark. Send a word to Poisonous Scorpion and his army to take action as well, or I will crush their balls.”

The bandits understood the meaning of White Beard supervising the attack. They rushed out of their battleships, gathered together on the beach, and were all filled with a strong killing intent.

“Buzzing!”

With a white flashy light, a two-layered Fate Wheel appeared from White Beard’s abdomen. He flew up from the battleship while a gorgeous saber appeared in his hand. With a wave, he shouted, “Charge!”

“It’s okay now~”

Ding Gui knew that his mission was accomplished. He cupped his fists to bid goodbye to Xu Sihe and Xu Yaoyang then left via the lake secretly.

Before Ding Gui came, the Family Patriarch of the Ding Family told him that he was not to reveal his identity. They were just honoring Madam Yan’s order, not to fight against Lu Li on account of personal reasons. Hence, after White Beard initiated the attack, Ding Gui left.

“Charge—”

Soon the other two sides both took actions. The other two groups of lake bandits followed the lead of White Beard. Now that he had given his order, none of the bandits dared to only pay lip service.

“It’s getting real now!”

Upon receiving the news that White Beard had taken action, Patriarch Seven looked at Hunchback Tian helplessly who sighed. “Send the signal. Ask Island Owner Lu to come out. I cannot compete with that warrior of the middle stage of Fate Wheel Realm.”

Since Hunchback Tian had stated his idea plainly, Patriarch Seven had to take out a signal detonator and threw it to the sky. The signal detonator exploded in midair with a loud noise and glaring light.

Liu Yi, who was sitting with her legs crossed outside of Lu Li’s temporary residence, stood up quickly and walked over to his room. When she failed to push his door open, she made up his mind and smashed at the door with her Xuan Energy.

“Boom!”

The Inhibition Formation over the door was weak. Liu Yi broke it with one slap. Liu Yi walked into the room, looked at Lu Li who was still sitting there with his legs crossed, and said with her hand cupped in front of her chest, “Island Owner, they cannot handle it any longer. Please go with me.”

Lu Li remained motionless, as if he didn’t hear anything. There was nothing wrong with his appearance. The Silver Dragon mark on his back was covered up by his robe, but the animal tooth pendant on his neck was gone. There was only a red string left.

Liu Yi had no idea that Lu Li’s body had gone through changes. After a while, she said again, “Island Owner, they cannot manage for long. If you don’t do anything, the Blood Evil Island will be destroyed.”

Getting nothing in response, Liu Yi made a decision and pushed Lu Li gently. His eyes kept shut and he made no movement.

“What is going on?”

Liu Yi was freaking out. She observed Lu Li and became relieved to see that he was still breathing and his heart was still beating.

Liu Yi frowned in anxiety. If Lu Li didn’t do anything, the Blood Evil Island would be thrown into complete annihilation and every single disciple of the Liu Family would die.

She did not know whether Lu Li going with her would change anything, but out of her instinct, she trusted him, and that as long as he took actions, he could do miracles.

That being said, Lu Li could not be woken up now…

After a while, Liu Yi walked out and came back with a gourd ladle full of water and poured the water over Lu Li’s head. Still, no reaction from Lu Li. It was as if Lu Li were an old man, passing away while sitting cross legged.

Liu Yi was afraid to do anything else but anxiously remain seated next to Lu Li, waiting for him to come back to his senses, or for the news to come to her that every one of the Blood Evil Island had fought to their deaths.

“Ah…”

Lu Li sighed to himself. He could hear Liu Yi’s voice and he could feel the water on his head. Nevertheless, he could not control his body. He couldn’t even open his eyes…

“It’s over now!”

As soon as the Blood Evil Island was breached, the end of the Earth Dragon Island wouldn’t be far away.

Lu Li could not move. He couldn’t enter the small world even if he wanted to. If it went down like this, he would be crushed into pieces.

“No, I have to wake up. I will wake up! I will!”

A surge of strong will came from the depths of his soul. He could not accept death in this way. His soul could not be possessed by that shadow of silver dragon. He had to master his own soul and free it from the control of a demon even at the expense of his life!

He roared on and on in his head, forcing himself to wake up again and again. After the time for two incense sticks to burn, his eyelids… slowly opened.

“Good—”

Lu Li stood up in joy after he regained control over his body. His earth-shaking Dragon Roar trembled the entire temporary residence.
