Chapter 785: Mistaken Person
The generosity of Blood Skull shocked everyone present by giving such a valuable gift at the first try. Thousands of spirit stones, the entire fortune of many foundation-building cultivators is no more than that.
The purpose of the rampant demon king holding such a celebration banquet is more to recover the cost of refining the demon barrier pill. Of course, it is impossible to recover it completely. Although there are many people coming today, there are actually only hundreds of forces of varying sizes. The strong ones can barely send gifts worth hundreds of spirit stones, and those with weak strength can only get dozens of spirit stones. Even the gifts from the eight-legged demon king and Lin Feng Zhenren are not worth more than a thousand spirit stones.
The gifts that the rampant demon king has received in the past few days are only worth 30,000 to 40,000 spirit stones. The value of a soul-hunting insect of Blood Skull is more than 10%, which makes others envious. How great would it be if it was theirs?
In fact, Blood Skull was also distressed at this time, but the situation was stronger than people. He had to rely on the protection of the rampant demon king to avoid the pursuit of the pirates. How could he not bleed a lot? Anyway, this soul-hunting worm was obtained through robbery, so just treat it as if it has never been obtained.
Looking at the soul-hunting worm in the box, the rampant demon king was almost overjoyed. The generosity of the blood skeleton was beyond his expectation. Who would not like such a subordinate? He gently flicked his hand on the table, put away the spirit worm and the box, and then looked at the blood skeleton with a smile on his face and said: "I'm sorry for your expense, I like the gift very much. As for you and your brothers, don't talk about whether to surrender or not. Since you are here, you will be guests of my rampant island in the future, and no one will dare to cause trouble to you."
The rampant demon king said it very happily, as if the blood skeleton had an old friend who had not seen it for many years, but the blood skeleton knew very well that if it was not for the gift of the soul-hunting worm that he gave, I am afraid that the result would be different at this time. Moreover, the rampant demon king agreed to let them surrender, which did not mean that they were completely safe. Some small troubles, the rampant demon king would definitely solve them for them. If they encountered big troubles or things that the rampant demon king could hardly solve, they would still be abandoned.
However, this result is already very good. In recent years, he and his group of brothers have not had a comfortable day in order to avoid the pursuit of other pirates. Many brothers can't stand it, so they flee or scatter. The manpower below is less than 20% of the original. If they don't find a force to join, they may be completely disbanded.
Now they can finally live a stable life. After the rampant demon king finished speaking, the blood skull hurriedly bowed and said: "Thank you for taking us in. In the future, we brothers will follow the king's lead."
The rampant demon king has many subordinates and doesn't care much about this. He waved his hand, then turned to Xie He and said: "Xie He, the blood skull and others are new here, so add a table for them in this hall, and the celebration banquet will continue."
Xie He took the order, called a few servants, carried a table from outside, and arranged it next to Qingyang and others.
Since entering the main hall, the people behind the Blood Skull have been like good kids, lowering their eyebrows and looking obediently behind the Blood Skull. They dare not look around, for fear of provoking people they shouldn't provoke. Now that the matter of surrender has been settled, they have become bolder.
Xiao Yuhan looked around and quickly looked at everyone in the main hall. When she saw Qingyang on the table next to her, Xiao Yuhan was stunned. She never thought that she would meet Qingyang here.
When the four of them escaped together, Xiao Yuhan and Xiping were both captured. Xiping was unlucky and was killed on the spot by the pirates as a warning to others. Xiao Yuhan compromised and became the wife of the Blood Skull, which saved her life.
Xiao Yuhan originally thought that since Qingyang and Xiying had escaped, they must have gone to Zhongsha District long ago, and they would be separated from each other from then on. They might never see each other again in this life, but she didn't expect to meet here again a few years later.
Seeing Qingyang again, Xiao Yuhan felt more melancholy. Qingyang was still the same Qingyang, but she had married and became a thief. It was fate. She always had an inexplicable sense of superiority when facing Qingyang before, but now she felt a little ashamed.
When Xiao Yuhan recognized Qingyang, the yellow-faced pirate also recognized him. Qingyang was just a small cultivator in the early stage of foundation building, but he escaped from him, a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building. Not only did he lose face, but he also made the boss suspicious of him, causing him to live in fear for the past few years. When enemies meet, their eyes are red with envy. The yellow-faced pirate even forgot the occasion. Suddenly, he became more aggressive and glared at Qingyang and said angrily: "Good boy, I finally caught you."
Although the yellow-faced pirate's strength has increased by one level, Qingyang's cultivation has increased more. Now he is in the middle stage of foundation building. The gap between the two sides is getting smaller and smaller, so Qingyang was not taken by the opponent's momentum. Instead, he moved his body to remove the opponent's momentum, and then said lightly: "I wonder if you have any advice?"
The blood skull had not had close contact with Qingyang, so he did not recognize him. Seeing the reaction of the yellow-faced pirate, he hurriedly asked the reason.
The boss asked, and the yellow-faced pirate had to answer, so he whispered Qingyang's origins. The blood skull knew that Qingyang was actually the fish that slipped through the net when they robbed the spirit ship of Wantong Pavilion last time. Such a person must not be kept, otherwise the matter of robbing Wantong Pavilion last time would be leaked.
If they were still pirates as before, it wouldn't be a big deal if they leaked the news. The worst they could do was to change places. Now that they were driven here by other pirates, they finally found a place to settle down. If Wantong Pavilion came to visit them, Come on, wouldn't the efforts just now be in vain, and we will have to live in exile in the future?
As the gang leader, Blood Skeleton is not as impulsive as the yellow-faced pirate. He knows very well that now is not the time to take action. The Hengxing Demon King is holding a celebration banquet. If he takes action now, wouldn't he be slapping the Hengxing Demon King in the face? Moreover, I had just arrived, and I was not familiar with the situation on Hengxing Overlord. I didn’t know what the relationship between this boy and Hengxing Demon King was. The fact that this boy could sit in the main hall with a cultivation level in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment meant that he was also the same in the mind of Hengxing Demon King. He is an extremely important guest, and he must not act rashly before he understands the reason.
Just because he had figured this out, before the Demon King Hengxing noticed this, the Blood Skull quickly smiled at Qingyang and said: "Don't be surprised, fellow Taoist, my brother has admitted the wrong person. He has always been so reckless. Please forgive me, fellow Taoist."
The yellow-faced pirate hadn't reacted yet and said, "Brother, I didn't admit my mistake. He was obviously..."
