Chapter 358 Desperate
In the heart of the Coral Islands lies an island called Sanyang Island.
There are three ram-head statues on the island, watching over each other and forming a protective array that can be activated at will. It can even withstand some of the attacks from a Grandmaster of the Divine Sea Realm.
The one who set up this formation was none other than the formation master, Zheng Hong.
The owner of this island is none other than the Liu family, who are skilled in crafting weapons.
At this moment, Liu Mingzhu's face was pale, and her protective jade bracelet was completely used up. She finally escaped back to Sanyang Island.
She gritted her teeth, her face full of resentment.
"Damn it! Where did these two people come from?!"
She recalled her recent trip to the reef, and a nameless fear gripped her heart.
The image of the man in the black robe, with his demonic and ferocious eyes, remained vivid in his mind.
As the eldest daughter of the Liu family, Liu Mingzhu was arrogant from a young age and always bullied others, but she never expected that she would almost die at the hands of that person this time.
She raised her right hand, and even after so long, her palm was still trembling slightly.
This is fear of that person.
She had never seen such a cruel person before. Her life was almost entirely in his hands. This feeling of being controlled and manipulated terrified her to the extreme.
"No! That man must die! I want to kill him with my own hands!"
Liu Mingzhu gritted her teeth and flew back to the Liu family.
Most of her family members were engaged in weapon crafting. After she told her father, Liu Kaitai, about it, he almost fainted.
"You mean you caused the deaths of four Crimson Sword Sect disciples outside!"
Liu Kaitai couldn't believe that his daughter could be so confused.
The Crimson Sword Sect is a large and powerful family. Although only four ordinary disciples died, the Liu family will also be implicated once the matter is exposed.
Liu Mingzhu shook her head in fear: "I didn't want to. I just went on an adventure with them. Who knew we'd run into the Tang family..."
"You must have provoked someone again!"
"How was I supposed to know those four guys were so weak? They couldn't even beat the Tang family members!"
"Bastard!"
Liu Kaitai was furious and threw a large ball at him.
Liu Mingzhu knew she had made a big mistake and immediately lowered her head and sobbed.
Liu Kaitai's expression darkened, and he closed his eyes to think for a long time.
"Did anyone else know that you were with those four people?"
"Only Tang Yi and his companion..."
"That's good. This matter must not be known to the Crimson Sword Sect. It has nothing to do with you, but they will definitely send people to investigate. Once they find out it's about Tang Yi..."
"Then what should I do!"
"There's no other way. The Tang family must know by now. We're in the same boat as Old Monster Tang. Come with me to the Tang family immediately to apologize and then we can discuss things further..."
"what!"
With a deafening roar, Liu Mingzhu was struck dumb, frozen in place.
……
at the same time.
Ye Kang had arrived at a blue-green sea area, following the guidance of the nautical chart.
This place is quite far from Jianshan Island, and there is only one uninhabited island nearby.
Ye Kang and the Carp God flew all the way and landed on the island.
"Carp God, it's all up to you."
Ye Kang looked at the little girl with hope. Following the guidance on the nautical chart, he knew the habits of the Blue Sea Golden Locust. Whenever the tide rose and fell, the golden locust would swim in the shallow sea to forage for food. This was the only opportunity to catch them.
Ye Kang had no experience with this and could only pin his hopes on the bloodline supernatural powers of the Carp God.
If it's all about luck, then teaming up with the Koi God will absolutely crush everyone else.
The carp god looked at the beach ahead, its eyes filled with curiosity.
"so many people."
Ye Kang also looked over and indeed, although it was said to be an uninhabited island, there were martial artists quietly guarding the beach.
Some people sat on the beach, some stood on the rocks, some leisurely drank tea in small boats, and some looked at Ye Kang and his companion with smiles on their faces.
"Another one trying their luck, oh ho, with a child too?"
Many martial artists looked over and sneered in disdain.
Another one who wants to get rich quick.
Ye Kang ignored them and walked directly to a flat rock.
Behind the rocks is a huge coconut tree with several plump coconuts growing on it.
"The carp god thinks that's delicious."
The carp god raised its head, drool dripping from the corner of its mouth.
Ye Kang smiled, waved his hand, and four or five large coconuts fell down, carrying with them his true energy.
"This is for drinking, not for eating."
Ye Kang demonstrated to the Carp God how to drink coconut juice, and the latter followed suit, hugging a coconut and starting to eat it.
Just then, a young woman with a sallow complexion suddenly walked over.
"Fellow Daoist, is this your first time visiting the Azure Sea?"
"Azure Sea?"
"That's what everyone calls this area of the sea."
"how do you know?"
Upon hearing this, the woman smiled modestly and said, "I have been here for a long time and have never met you before, so I thought it was your first time here."
"What's up?"
"Fellow Daoist, please don't be offended. My name is Wen Qin, and I am also a rogue cultivator. My teammate had an accident recently. If you need someone to team up with, please feel free to contact me."
Wen Qin has an ordinary appearance, an average build, and her cultivation level is also mediocre, only at the fourth level, making her neither particularly outstanding nor weak in this place.
Ye Kang was somewhat surprised: "What team up?"
Wen Qin explained, "Those who come to Bihai are all looking for the Bihai Golden Locust. This creature is cunning and suspicious, and it is not easy for one person to catch it. Even if you do catch it, you need to be extremely discreet and not make a fuss, otherwise it will attract the covetous eyes of people with ill intentions. Therefore, everyone spontaneously forms teams to avoid trouble."
Ye Kang nodded. Indeed, he had already felt at least seven or eight malicious gazes.
Those who dare to come here to gamble for a chance are all reckless rogue cultivators and desperate people. Who would listen to the rules?
Murder and looting are inevitable.
After all, a single golden locust is worth 50,000 spirit crystals, which is enough for rogue cultivators to cross all boundaries.
Why did you come to me?
Wen Qing blushed and said, "I can tell that you are a newcomer and probably don't have any teammates. Plus, you have a child with you, so you must be a kind and gentle person. I would feel more at ease if I teamed up with you."
"Really? You have a good eye for people."
Ye Kang smiled and did not refuse.
Regardless of this woman's motives, there's nothing to fear in the face of absolute power.
When you're out and about, it's important to fit in. Having teammates can also reduce other people's suspicions about you.
Wen Qin's face lit up with joy: "Thank you, fellow Daoist! I'm sitting on the rock below you. Please feel free to ask me any questions you may have."
The two exchanged greetings with clasped hands, and then Wen Qin left.
Ye Kang looked towards the coast. More and more independent cultivators were gathering, and they were in groups of three or five. Some even formed teams of more than a dozen people. Wherever they went, the independent cultivators avoided eye contact, afraid of being targeted.
Suddenly, two groups of independent cultivators, for reasons unknown, started fighting in full view of everyone, their true energy surging and their martial arts techniques clashing wildly.
The rest of the people were just watching the spectacle; no one stopped them. Some of them even placed bets on each other to see who would win.
Before long, a body was left on the shore, and the defeated team fled in haste, drawing boos from the crowd.
Upon seeing this, Ye Kang sneered.
Indeed, a group of desperados.
