Chapter 275: Discovered By Pirates
There was a flying ship in the sky above the Moon Goddess Sea. Encountering such ships near their own territory was a good thing, as there would be things to trade and obtain.
However, out in the wilderness, these ships were harbingers of doom.
The ship was flying in circles in the sky around the Moon Goddess Sea, and slowly releasing a signal using Dao aura. It was like a beacon tower, calling out toward other pirates in the surroundings.had been lit on a beacon tower, specifically to attract the attention of the people around it.
Their blatant and overt presence here was testament to their lack of fear of the myriad races. No one would willingly provoke Sky City pirates, out of fear of being placed on the blacklist and hunted down by pirates everywhere.
On the deck of this flying ship stood a few strange-looking members of the myriad races. They all looked different and were of different sizes.
However, most of them were below three meters in size. Any taller, and they would not be suitable for combat, let alone for living on a flying ship.
The crew members were conversing with each other in a dissatisfied tone.
One of them, who looked like a cooked shrimp, was fiddling with a skull in his hand.
“I don’t understand why we have to do this. So what if Guishen is missing? Why do we have to come out all the way here to find him? I don’t even know what the city lord is thinking. Does he really think that Guishen is very important to Sky City?”
“Also, why didn’t he do it himself? Why bother us with this pointless task? We’ve been here for half a year. Let alone Guishen, we haven’t even found a single other person. We’re missing out on important trades, and haven’t even found anyone to exploit. It’s a total waste of our time.”
The others chimed in.
“Isn’t Guishen a first-grade Dao essence realm cultivator? There’s also that weird thousand-handed dead python beside him. Their combined strength should be enough to deal with anything out here. Why trouble us with this matter?”
“Yeah, if he’s alive, he’ll return to Sky City on his own. If he’s dead, then we’re all here for nothing anyway.”
“The city lord is getting senile.”
“Perhaps it’s time for him to die and make way for others.”
The crew members continued to chat.
Then…
While the crew members were searching for traces of Guishen out of boredom…
They suddenly sensed that there was a lone wanderer nearby.
Their eyes immediately lit up.
Hahaha!
They finally found something to pass the time with!
The flying ship began an extensive search. On the deck of the flying ship, a complicated formation was glowing and pulsating, scanning the surroundings for prey
The cannons on the ship were also put into standby mode.
…
In the cave, under the cover of the vines, the woman who had come to find Yuchi had already fallen into despair.
Just now, a wave of Dao aura had swept toward her, and she instinctively unleashed her own aura to defend herself. This was a mistake.
“I’m finished.”
“I’ve been discovered.”
The woman hid herself in the cold and damp cave. Then, she could feel waves of Dao aura rushing toward her.
The entire cave that seemed safe just moments ago seemed to amplify the feeling of danger.
Cold water dripped down from the ceiling of the cave.
Moss could be seen on the walls of the cave.
There were also countless insects on the moss.
The bugs turned their heads and looked in her direction one by one. They seemed to be expressing the same thought at the same time.
“You’ve been caught!”
She only had two choices.
She could either take a gamble and try to escape, or she could stay in this cave and kill herself.
There was no way she could defeat the pirates.
“No! It wasn’t easy for me to arrive here. How can I give up here? I have to survive!”
“Ershania, you have to survive!”
Then…
She mustered the courage in her heart and dashed out of the cave, running away from the flying ship with all her might.
She did not dare to fly.
This situation obviously attracted the attention of the crew members on the ship, who were amused.
“Don’t you think that these wanderers are all fools?”
“They clearly know the final outcome, yet they still choose to try to escape.”
“Hahaha.”
“Come on guys!”
“Let’s go and have some fun with this little wanderer.”
They finally had the chance to have some fun. Bullying and oppressing others was one of the joys of pirate life.
The flying ship turned around and began its pursuit.
Death was coming…
No, something worse than death was coming!
