Immediately, Yang Dingtian, who was at a side, was given a scare. What did it have to do with me? How were these pirates involved with me?
“Blow the horn, get ready for battle.” Ling Wu spoke.
After which, she suddenly took out a bent blade, “Yan Nantian, I can tell that you know some martial arts. As for whether you wish to stay behind and help or to stay inside the cabin, the choice is up to you.”
Yang Dingtian replied, “I will stay behind to fight. However, let me go and get my weapon.”
Yang Dingtian pretended to walk to his cabin as he took out his youngling sword from his ring of storage before returning back to Ling Wu’s side.
When Ling Wu saw the youngling sword on Yang Dingtian’s hand, she couldn’t help but feel slightly startled, “This is your weapon? This iron rod doesn’t look like an iron rod. It seems like an iron ruler, but it isn’t. It’s so ugly. I have better weapons here. I will get someone to grab one for you.”
“No need. This sword of mine is good enough.” Yang Dingtian replied.
Very quickly, three ships appeared in Yang Dingtian’s line of sight. They were about dozens of miles away from Ling Wu’s ship. He took a look at their flag. Indeed, it was Cloud Heaven City Black Blood Castle’s flag.
Without a doubt, this was a set-up by his enemies.
Good. The Northwest Qin Clan and Ximen Ju had actually resorted to unscrupulous means so that they could frame Yang Dingtian.
Previously, when he was returning from the Southwest Continent through the seas, he had also encountered those Black Blood Pirates on their deck. Today, he had encountered them once again. It could be clearly seen that the surrounding sea territories had been covered with pirates that were impersonating the Black Blood Cavalry brothers.
However, what happened to the Black Blood Cavalry recently? Why would Ximen Ju and Qin Clan resort to such means? The Black Blood Castle was several thousand miles away from here. There are also insufficient reasons for them to do so even if they wanted to frame the Black Blood Cavalry.
“This group of pirates would frequently rob those ships that pass by?” Yang Dingtian inquired.
“Far more than that. For the past few months, all those ships that pass by, none of them had not been robbed.” Ling Wu spoke coldly and furiously, “Furthermore, this group of bastards would always bully the weak and fear the strong. They would never dare to offend those ships that hang the Heaven Dao Union flag. In addition, they would even escort them. When they encountered those who are weak, they would act a viper or fierce tiger. If it weren’t because the island could no longer hold on, I would never come out to take such a risk. Currently, these goods on the ship are my clan’s final properties. My clan would be finished if it was plundered.”
“Aren’t they killing the goose that lay eggs if they were to do this? Who are they going to rob if there are no more cargo ships on the sea?” Yang Dingtian inquired.
“They would let us off so long as we hand over three women and 300 gold coins every month.” Ling Wu replied, “We didn’t want to hand over women to them. However, we are willing to hand over 500 gold coins. Originally, they had also agreed to it. But after which, Yang Dingtian, that brute had taken a fancy to me and wanted me to become his mistress. I wasn’t willing. Therefore, they would purposely rob my ships. Furthermore, they would launch sneak attacks at my Inferno Island practically every day. That bastard also injured my father.”
After Ling Wu finished speaking, her beautiful eyes turned red, and her face was ingrained with hatred.
Meanwhile, Yang Dingtian was about to burst out in rage. It wouldn’t have been much if those group of bastards had just gotten people to impersonate him and robbed the ships. But unexpectedly, they even forcefully robbed an ordinary woman. They were simply trying to make Yang Dingtian become the public enemy.
Yang Dingtian inquired, “Miss Ling Wu, have you met that Yang Dingtian?”
“Yes.” Ling Wu replied coldly, “Long face, tall nose, and narrow eyes. He looked like a pretty decent boy. However, he’s a bastard. It was unknown how many innocent women had he robbed from Inferno Island. Or how many women had he sullied from respectable families or even how many women had committed suicide after he had defiled them.”
“Bastard…” Yang Dingtian snarled. He clenched his teeth and murmured, “This bastard ought to be dismembered into thousand pieces!”
The way Yang Dingtian was acting now was exactly the same as how Ling Wu was.
At this moment, the three pirate ships had already gotten closer.
Yang Dingtian was already able to see the appearance of the pirate leading them. Indeed, enemies were likely to meet each other. It was precisely that pirate leader that had robbed the passenger ship previously and had even detained Ning Rou’er, the mother and daughter as hostages. Ultimately, he even chased after Yang Dingtian and caused him to consume the Water Separation Elixir to escape without a trace.
During then, he was a Mystic Martial Artist. Therefore, Yang Dingtian was, by far, not his opponent. Now, it was no longer the same. Yang Dingtian had become a Great Mystic Martial Master expert. Yang Dingtian must certainly dismember him into several thousand pieces since he had delivered himself to his doorstep.
It just so happened that it would allow Yang Dingtian to test out how strong he had become.
*****************
“Young Lady Ling Wu, we meet again.” The pirate leader burst out in laughter, “What’s wrong? Be obedient and follow me back to become our Young Master’s woman. Otherwise, we will plunder all of the goods, snatch away all the women and kill all the men on deck.”
“Keep dreaming.” Ling Wu replied coldly, “I will never allow that bastard Yang Dingtian to sully me even if I have to die in the ocean.”
Immediately, the face of Yang Dingtian at the side suddenly twitched. Others would always say to get shot even when lying down. However, Yang Dingtian was getting cannoned even when lying down!
“I wouldn’t be able to help you then.” The pirate leader smiled coldly, “I’m afraid that it will be hard even if you wish to die once you fall into our hands.”
Followingly, the sexy and bewitching female pirate at the side discovered Yang Dingtian. She nudged the pirate leader beside her, “Big brother, look there. It’s the guy who had escaped and snatched away two absolute beauties from your hand previously.”
The pirate leader’s face was filled with scars, and his flesh was protruding out, making him look extremely ugly and sinister. However, his pair of eyes was truly abstruse and threatening. At this moment, he looked towards Yang Dingtian like electricity as he smiled coldly, “Indeed, it’s you, my close friend. What the hell are you? Wherever there are beauties, you would be there. Where are the two absolute beauties that were with you previously? Offer them to our Young Master Yang Dingtian. I guarantee you would be able to enjoy endless wealth for your whole life.”
Yang Dingtian didn’t rebuke him but merely stared at him coldly.
“Sister. Don’t you like pretty boys the most? Later on, I will hand him over to you. Slaughter him after you are done playing with him and cut his head and hand it over to be my plaything.” The pirate leader smiled mercilessly.
That female pirate stuck out her chest towards Yang Dingtian while extending out her gaudy red lips and licked. She revealed a licentious smile towards Yang Dingtian.
Suddenly, Yang Dingtian discovered that this female pirate looked somewhat familiar. However, he couldn’t remember where he had met her before.
At this moment, all the sailors on Ling Wu’s cargo ship had arrived on the deck while they held onto a sword. Seven or eight huge crossbows had also extended out on the deck.
Although there were quite many people on the cargo ship, they were still just sailors. Therefore, their faces were filled with fear to the point that the swords in their hands were trembling when they were facing those uncanny pirates.
“Yan Nantian, have you encountered them before?” Ling Wu inquired.
“A few months ago.” Yang Dingtian replied.
“You can’t defeat them?” Ling Wu asked.
“Couldn’t defeat them during then and had to flee.” Yang Dingtian commented.
“Later on, take advantage of the chaos and sneak away. There’s no need for you to throw away your life with us.” Ling Wu narrated, “I’m already very contented that you had stayed behind on the deck and stood with me for a moment.”
Yang Dingtian smiled coldly, “This is no longer just your matters alone.”
At this moment, the three pirate ships had gotten even closer. After which, it suddenly changed direction as they flanked over from three different directions.
When those people on the cargo ship saw that they had been surrounded, the fear on their faces grew even denser. So long as someone led the way, all of them would throw away the weapons in their hands and jump into the ocean to escape.
The three pirate ships grew even closer over time.
When they were about 300 meters away, Ling Wu suddenly gave a command, “Release the arrows!”
Immediately, several sailors lifted up the hammer and smashed onto the huge crossbows suddenly.
“Swish swish swish…” Those large and armed-thick arrows suddenly shot out. All of them shot towards the three pirate ships separately.
“Hahahaha…” That pirate leader laughed out loudly. Unexpectedly, he stood at the prow of the ship and stared at those huge incoming arrows. He didn’t even bother to dodge.
When those huge arrows were right before his eyes, the pirate leader slashed out with the broadsword on his hand.
At the same time, the experts on the other two ships had also slashed out.
“Bang…”
Immediately, all those huge arrows that were shot out from the huge crossbows had been crushed into fine powders.
“My love, I’m coming…” After which, a voice roared out suddenly. That pirate leader and the bewitching female pirate, as well as a slim pale youth, pounced towards the cargo ship, covering the hundreds of meters between them.
The three of them from three different directions pounced over like eagles.
*************************
Yang Dingtian discovered that among the trio, the pirate leader’s martial arts wasn’t the strongest. The strongest among them was actually the slim pale youth.
“Kill…”
“Kill…”
That pirate leader suddenly pounced towards Ling Wu.
The slim pale youth pounced towards the numerous sailors on the deck.
While the bewitching female pirate held onto her curved blade and pounced towards Yang Dingtian, he circulated all the mystic qi within his body and welcomed the bewitching female pirate’s blade with a slash.
“Haha, my love. You aren’t a match for this elder sister.” The bewitching female pirate teased with a delicate voice.
“Bam…” Suddenly, a loud sound reverberated.
Yang Dingtian’s youngling sword was halt above the female pirate’s curved blade mercilessly.
“Pfff…” Suddenly, the female pirate spout out a mouthful of blood and flew out immediately.
Meanwhile, that slim pale youth had also charged into the crowd.
“Swish swish swish swish…”
Instantly, dozens of people had died tragically under his sword without any corpses. This slim pale youth’s sword art looked extremely strange and vicious. It was also fast as a demon.
Meanwhile, that pirate leader’s Ghost Head Blade had also halt above Ling Wu’s sword viciously.
“Bam…” A sudden collision.
Ling Wu suddenly spout out a mouthful of blood, and her delicate body was forced retreated for dozens of steps, causing her to almost fall to the ground.
“Little beauty, I have shown you enough leniency. Next, have a taste of my Raising Yin Ghost Head Blade.” That pirate leader’s eyes shot out radiances of demonic qi while the Ghost Head Blade on his hand became a splashing ink as it slashed over to Ling Wu. The move was extremely despicable as it was directed at her abdomen, crotch, and legs.
Ling Wu was alarmed. She wanted to lift her sword to obstruct it, but her body was in sharp pain, causing her not to have an ounce of strength. She looked at that pirate leader’s ugly and disgusting appearance as well as the Ghost Head Blade that was advancing to ruin her lower body and also those clan’s sailors that had been massacred and fallen to the ground.
“I would rather die than be subjected to such humiliation.” Ling Wu yelled out in embrittlement. Suddenly, she placed her sword at her neck and was about to attempt suicide.
“Bam…” Abruptly, her sword had been shot off, and her hand trembled and grew numb. The sword on her hand had practically flown off.
It was Yang Dingtian who had flicked off her suiciding move.
After which, he grabbed onto Ling Wu’s arm suddenly and pulled her behind his back while he turned around and started a battle with this pirate leader.
