Chapter 806: Strike First to Gain the Upper Hand
The rampant demon king said: "That must be the case. The thieves probably didn't expect us to come back so soon, and we blocked them. You guys go in and search quickly. I guess they are still inside."
At the command of the rampant demon king, Xie Jiang led the remaining few people into the treasury, and the rampant demon king did not leave, but guarded the door of the treasury to prevent the thieves from escaping.
The rampant demon king and his group entered the treasury, and the few people hiding in the treasury also saw their situation clearly. In addition to the rampant demon king and Xie Jiang, there were four or five others, all of whom were in the late stage of foundation building. These people are probably all the remaining high-level people on the rampant island now.
I remember that at the beginning of the celebration banquet, the rampant demon king brought seven or eight people into the venue, all of whom were in the late stage of foundation building. Now there are only four or five left. Even Xie He, who once represented the rampant demon king to welcome the blood skull and others, and whose status and status were no less than Xie Jiang, disappeared. He should have been lost in the battle over there.
Although these four or five survived, they were all injured. The most serious ones even needed the help of others to move. The situation of the rampant demon king was not much better. Two of the eight crab legs were missing, and there was a dent the size of a wooden basin on his back. The crab shell was broken, revealing the blurry flesh and blood inside. The rampant demon king had extremely strong defense, and the crab shell on his back was a key part of it. However, he was injured like this by the blood-stained man. It can be seen how fierce the battle was at that time. No wonder the rampant demon king said just now that it would take at least half a month to heal the wound.
Among this group of people, only Xie Jiang's situation was slightly better. He only suffered some minor injuries all over his body, and his true energy was consumed a little more, which did not affect his overall strength much.
Xie Jiang led the four men, two by two, and searched forward with full vigilance. Just as they were about to find the location of Blood Skull and others, they heard Blood Skull roar: "Attack!"
Then Blood Skull, Black-faced Pirate, Yellow-faced Pirate, and Xiao Yuhan showed up at the same time, and the four attacks that had been prepared for a long time suddenly fell on the two seventh-level foundation-building cultivators who were searching not far away.
These two people were also unlucky. Their strength was not as good as that of Blood Skull and other pirates. They were injured in the battle with the Blood Clothes Man before. They were outnumbered. Although they knew that there were enemies hiding in the treasury and had made sufficient defenses, they were still unable to respond to the sudden attack of Blood Skull and others, resulting in one death and one serious injury.
In fact, it was Xie Jiang and others who were careless. They thought that there were only one or two petty thieves in the treasury. Seeing the rampant demon king coming in person, even if they did not surrender, they were probably scared silly. They did not know that the other party was very strong, and they dared to take risks in the presence of the rampant demon king. It was really daring.
This Blood Skull and others were also helpless choices. They were blocked in the treasury by the rampant demon king. The rampant demon king would definitely not let them go easily. A conflict was inevitable. In this case, they had to take advantage of the other party's lack of understanding of the situation and take the initiative.
If the strength of the rampant demon island was not damaged, Blood Skull and others would definitely not dare to fight hard, nor did they think they could escape. Fighting hard was just a helpless choice. Whether they could escape alive was completely up to fate. Later, it was discovered that the rampant demon king was injured, and the situation of other subordinates was not optimistic. They still had some strength to fight, and maybe they could turn defeat into victory. So Blood Skull boldly organized his subordinates to launch a sneak attack, and now it seems that the effect is still very good.
There were only six people on the side of the rampant demon king. Now one died and one was seriously injured. Including the rampant demon king, there were only four people left, which was equal to the number of people of the Blood Skull and his men. If they played well, they might be able to turn defeat into victory.
Xie Jiang and others were startled by the sudden attack of the Blood Skull. When they heard the noise, they rushed to the place where the accident happened. Even the rampant demon king was no exception. In a blink of an eye, he surrounded the Blood Skull and his men.
After seeing that it was the Blood Skull and his men who attacked them, the rampant demon king became more cautious. If he was not injured, he would not have to worry about these people. Now that he was seriously injured and had not recovered, the situation was not easy to say, especially the Blood Skull in the middle who had completed the foundation building. Ordinary people could not deal with it.
Even so, when he thought about how this guy had pretended to join him, but then took advantage of his misfortune and almost emptied his treasury, the rampant demon king was furious and said angrily: "It's you? Blood Skull, I took you in out of kindness, and this is how you repay me?"
Since the relationship had been torn apart, Blood Skull did not pretend to be polite anymore, and sneered: "If it weren't for the soul-hunting insects I sent, how could the rampant demon king take us in out of kindness? It's just a deal between us. I gave something, so I naturally have to get a corresponding reward. Seeing the blood-clothed man coming to his door, the rampant demon king couldn't protect himself, so-called The offer of shelter has failed, what's wrong with me coming to take back my things? "
The rampant demon king was choked by the words of the blood skull, and laughed instead of being angry, saying: "Okay, okay, okay, I knew long ago that you pirates are ambitious, how could you really surrender? But I didn't expect you to change your face so quickly, just said the words of loyalty before, and turned around and forgot it completely. In this case, what is there to be polite about, Xie Jiang, the others will be left to you, and I will deal with this blood skull myself. "
After saying that, the rampant demon king did not wait for others, and directly flashed, waving two huge crab claws, and rushed straight towards the blood skull. The blood skull was prepared, and also sacrificed his spiritual weapon, performing the secret technique of the art and fighting with the rampant demon king.
Although the rampant demon king was seriously injured and his true essence was severely consumed, which seriously affected his strength, he was an eighth-level demon beast after all, equivalent to the existence of a fourth-level Jindan cultivator. Even in this situation, he was not comparable to ordinary foundation-building cultivators. As soon as the two came into contact, Blood Skull felt a huge pressure and was in danger frequently. If he had not been a pirate and had rich experience in saving his life, he might have been captured at the beginning.
However, Blood Skull was not completely powerless to fight back. As an old-fashioned foundation-building cultivator, although Blood Skull had not yet entered the Jindan realm, he had a certain understanding of the Jindan realm. He was much stronger than ordinary foundation-building cultivators. In addition, he had sufficient true essence in his body, and it was the time when his fighting spirit was the strongest. In the process of fighting, he could occasionally launch a few counterattacks.
Moreover, Blood Skull seized the loophole of the rampant demon king and focused on the wound on his back. His methods were extremely tricky, forcing the rampant demon king to defend himself and was a little exhausted for a while.
