Chapter 1644 (2/2)

The earlier battle caused a tremendous commotion. Due to the Neptune's Rages firing several rounds, this sea region looked like a huge storm just pa.s.sed through it.

It would be hard to avoid the attention of other cultivators.

”What horrifying Demonic Energy Cannons! They should be Neptune's Rages.”

”Based on the lingering aura, two Major Primal Core Venerates died.”

”They were really seeking death. I wonder which reckless Venerates they were? They actually dared to offend a pirate s.h.i.+p with Neptune's Rages equipped.”

”Who knows? These days, there has been no lack of reckless people.”

Many of the experienced Grave Sea cultivators figured out the general situation and did not dare to linger here.

Not every 4-Star pirate s.h.i.+p in the Grave Sea could equip Neptune's Rages.

One needed extremely high authority and sufficient contributions to the Pirate Alliance's inner circle. Furthermore, they were very expensive; just one fetched a high price.

No one would dare to offend a pirate s.h.i.+p equipped with Neptune's Rages. This was common knowledge.

At this moment, the root of this incident recovered its ordinary appearance, sailing freely in the starry sea.

Everyone on the s.h.i.+p was in a good mood. This was the Black Cutla.s.s's first big battle since coming to the Grave Sea.

The victory seemed simpler than expected. Now, all the crewmembers felt a strong sense of belonging to the Black Cutla.s.s.

Inside the captain's quarters, the Beast Governing Sect's Elder Tang, who already changed his clothes and appeared to be in much better spirits, faced Xiao Chen. There was a silver jade bottle on the table between them.

The jade bottle contained the highest-quality Life Juice Source.

Greed flashed in Elder Tang's eyes as he occasionally s.h.i.+fted his gaze to Xiao Chen, waiting for Xiao Chen to say something.

”I keep my word. Since Elder Tang is willing to humble yourself and stay on the Black Cutla.s.s, I naturally cannot be stingy. Take it, then.”

Xiao Chen waved his hand in invitation.

Elder Tang's face lit up with joy. Unexpectedly, Xiao Chen really was so straightforward. Elder Tang had been stuck at late-stage Major Primal Core Realm for many years already and could not break through to the peak. This golden Life Juice Source held a fatal attraction for him.

”Many thanks.”

Elder Tang reached out to take the jade bottle, feeling somewhat excited.

”That's nothing much. I'll go and rest first. After I recover, this old man will definitely do his best to serve Young Master Xiao.”

Elder Tang showed a smile as he stood up, preparing to go.

Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes as he smiled. ”You will serve me with all your strength after you recover? Elder Tang, do you really take me for a fool?”

”Huh?!”

Elder Tang pretended to be stupid, looking like he did not understand Xiao Chen.

”I want to leave a restriction in your body. Elder Tang, what do you think?” Xiao Chen asked probingly.

The smile of the Beast Governing Sect's Elder Tang froze. However, he immediately replied, ”Yes, that is necessary.”

Elder Tang had answered delightedly, but he was smiling coldly to himself.

Xiao Chen shot a sharp gaze at Elder Tang, indicating for him to let down all of his defenses.

Feeling very confident, Elder Tang did not give it much thought but just let down all his mental guard.

”Dragon Blood Soul Breaking Finger!”

Xiao Chen extended his finger at lightning speed to press it against Elder Tang's forehead.

Before Elder Tang, who let down his mental guard, could react, extremely destructive Soul Energy entered the depths of his soul like a flash of lightning.

Elder Tang's heart sank; he felt like his soul was about to leave his body, torn apart by this external force.

He was frightened into going pale and immediately tried to put up some resistance.

”Whoos.h.!.+”

Just as the energy from the Soul Breaking Finger in the depths of his soul was about to erupt, Xiao Chen quickly stopped it and withdrew his hand.

Elder Tang fell to the floor, holding his forehead. As he looked at Xiao Chen, he showed a horrified expression.

He could feel a vague scarlet light in the depths of his soul. It was like a time bomb planted there.

Xiao Chen smiled and said, ”That was dangerous. This is the first time I used the Soul Breaking Finger to set a restriction. Fortunately, my bloodline has been improved; I actually did not fail.

”Rest properly, then. Elder Tang, don't overthink.”

Elder Tang showed a sorrowful expression as he pointed at Xiao Chen and exclaimed angrily, ”Junior, you tricked me!”

Xiao Chen smiled calmly. ”Let it go. We were trying to outwit each other in the first place. It is just a matter of whose means are better. In the future, the Black Cutla.s.s will be in your care.”

That was right. No one was stupid. However, no matter what, in the end, Xiao Chen was the one with the last laugh.
