Chapter 360 As expected of a lucky charm
Ye Kang looked ahead in surprise into the shallow sea, where a group of large, muscular hermit crabs were fighting over a snail shell.
One of the hermit crabs had a noticeable bulge on its hind leg.
Although it is the same color and looks like a whole part of a crab leg, a closer look reveals that it is clearly a separate creature!
A leech as long as an arm!
Golden Locusts in the Blue Sea!
It hid on the hermit crab's leg, in a place where it was completely impossible to be discovered!
Ye Kang rubbed the little head of the carp god. Sure enough, you should always believe in koi.
Wen Qin and the others also spotted the Azure Sea Golden Locust. They looked at each other but made no move.
The boy deliberately said, "You two, I told you not to run around. These hermit crabs are troublesome. If they cause a ruckus, the Blue Sea Golden Locust will definitely be scared away."
The boy's tone was resentful, and his acting was skillful.
Ye Kang said, "I'm sorry, it won't happen again next time."
At this moment, the Carp God suddenly dived down. Ye Kang immediately showed an anxious expression, scooped up the Carp God with one hand, and with the other hand, grabbed the Azure Sea Golden Locust with lightning speed.
At the critical moment, the golden locust bit into the crab's leg, and the hermit crab screamed and swung its large pincers at it.
"Oh no! We mustn't let the hermit crabs onto our beach!"
Wenqin shouted, and the group hurriedly stopped the startled hermit crabs, but this only attracted more hermit crabs to attack.
Although these crabs were not very strong, they were too big. Once they entered the beach, they would scare away the cunning Blue Sea Locusts, so the group was in a flurry of activity.
Many independent cultivators who witnessed this scene showed expressions of mockery.
"Those guys are really stupid. They lured the crabs here, so they definitely won't be able to find the gold locusts there."
“They’re reckless; they deserve to be in the Air Force.”
"Never mind them, let's hurry. There hasn't been a single golden locust yet, we still have a chance."
Most people didn't notice anything amiss, except for Qi Laosan, whose eyes were filled with malice as he stared intently at Ye Kang's figure.
"Only five leaves have been opened, is that too calm..."
"Third Brother, what's wrong?" someone asked from the side.
Qi Laosan shook his head: "It's nothing, just keep an eye on that side."
Ye Kang sensed Qi Laosan's gaze, but did not show any surprise.
The opponent has already opened the Eight Leaves stage, which means they can ignore the robes and see through my cultivation level.
Although I am not afraid of him, my main task is to collect the golden locusts, and it would be best if I could avoid attracting attention.
At this moment, Wen Qin had already quietly caught the golden locust amidst the chaos, thanks to her skillful technique.
Ye Kang noticed that the container for catching the golden locusts was a snail shell. Basically, every rogue cultivator had several snail shells on their waist, and the golden locusts they caught would be put into them.
Because of the Golden Locust's ability to ignore divine soul detection, others cannot tell whether there is anything inside.
Wenqin gave everyone a wink before pretending to complain and chasing away all the hermit crabs.
Then, she sent a telepathic message to Ye Kang: "Brother Wang, you're the one who found this golden locust. I'll give it to you later."
"Shouldn't it be divided equally?"
"No need. It's an unspoken rule here: whoever finds it gets it. Teammates must cooperate fully to capture it."
"Thank you very much."
Ye Kang wasn't surprised. Golden locusts were rare, and verbally agreeing to distribute them equally was more likely to cause disputes. A simpler, more direct approach was better.
The boy and the strong man had no objections; as independent cultivators, they had their own set of survival rules.
"Fellow Daoist Wen, could you lend me two snail shells?"
"of course."
Ye Kang took the two snail shells and hung them on his body.
"The Carp God hasn't eaten a crab yet."
Suddenly, the carp goddess complained; it turned out she just wanted to eat crabs.
Ye Kang comforted him, "Eat when no one is around. Eat as much as you want. Thanks to the Carp God, I've already caught a golden locust."
"Has the Carp God done a good deed?"
"of course."
"The Carp God says you should thank the Carp God."
"Thank you, Lord Koi God."
Hearing Ye Kang's thanks, the carp spirit cheered up and swam to the other side.
Ye Kang quickly followed, and then a golden locust appeared in front of the Carp Goddess. She hesitated for a moment and did not open her mouth.
Although the golden leech looks beautiful, it's still a leech, and she doesn't really want to eat it.
At this moment, Ye Kang seemingly casually waved his hand, and his true energy enveloped the golden locust, sending it into the seashell at his waist.
The movements were so fluid and seamless that it was impossible to tell what had happened.
However, Wenqin and several of her teammates were too close and still witnessed the scene.
The three of them stared at each other, completely stunned.
"Found another one!"
"This kid's actions don't seem like the first time."
Wen Qin nodded and transmitted her voice: "Good luck."
Ye Kang didn't say much, and patted the carp god's head again.
The dragon-shaped koi truly lives up to its name!
Just as he was feeling happy, four tall, muscular figures walked towards them.
"Miss Wen, when did you find another new teammate?"
The leader had a leopard-like head and bulging eyes, with a cruel grin always on his lips, and his tone was threatening when he spoke.
Wen Qin raised her head and smiled calmly, "Old Niu, didn't one of our previous teammates die? So we brought in a fellow Daoist who just arrived here."
"I see. So, you're a new fellow Daoist. You're rather immature. Why didn't you come to pay your respects to Brother Qi San before you arrived?"
Old Niu crossed his arms and glanced sideways at Ye Kang.
The atmosphere instantly became more intimate, and everyone around turned to look.
Ye Kang glanced at Qi Laosan in the distance. Sure enough, there were a few fewer people in that group. These four guys must have been sent by Qi Laosan.
Old Niu continued, "But it doesn't matter. Brother Qi is magnanimous and won't hold a grudge over such a small matter."
Wen Qin laughed and said, "Of course, Brother Qi is a man of great righteousness and will not hold it against us."
"However, since you're new here, you should at least know the rules. Third Brother's idea is that you shouldn't continue catching golden locusts today. Also, bring your snail shells over so I can take a look."
Old Niu grinned mischievously and stretched out his hand.
Upon hearing this, everyone gaped in astonishment.
The surrounding groups of independent cultivators broke out in a cold sweat, unable to believe that Qi Laosan was so domineering!
Who would force their way into someone else's snail shell?
On Ye Kang's side, the boy and the burly man also clenched their fists.
"Niu Dali, don't go too far! Why should we show you our snail shells?"
Old Niu clicked his tongue and said disdainfully, "It's just a look, what's the rush? Have you already caught the golden locust?"
"Bullshit! Whether they caught them or not is none of your business!"
"What did you say? Say it again if you dare!"
Old Niu rolled up his sleeves, and the aura of Liu Ye spread out, enveloping the group.
He dropped all pretense and revealed an expression of utter disgust.
"On this beach, whatever Third Brother says, you have to do. Don't make me repeat myself. Hand over the shells so I can inspect them!"
