Rumble——
As ng Li dashed out, surpassing a kiloter, intending to dive into the water to grab the Qingling Fish.
At this mont, the surface of the water suddenly exploded, torrential sprays splattering everywhere. From the dark seabed, a giant octopus tentacle rose up, striking heavily towards ng Li!
"This, this, this..."
ng Li was utterly horrified, looking at the giant tentacle, his face turning pale!
"Brother ng Li, watch out."
Shu Xiang shouted anxiously at this mont.
ng Li struggled to channel all his spiritual power in resistance, but with that strike, he was still hit, coughing up blood, flying backward for kiloters before crashing onto Crescent Island.
"ng Li, are you alright?" Changsun Yun hurriedly rushed over, with Wu Ming and Lin Bai also arriving beside ng Li.
ng Li exclaid in horror, "There’s a monster underwater!"
At this point, a voice rang out!
"That’s not a monster... that’s a Giant Demon..."
Hearing this voice, the five of them looked up and saw a Spirit Boat slowly erging from the void above Crescent Island.
On the Spirit Boat, over thirty Warriors coldly laughed, looking towards Lin Bai and the others, with the leading person being Zhang Cangyun.
Changsun Yun said, "Zhang Cangyun, didn’t you leave?"
Zhang Cangyun sneered, "We also ca for the Qingling Fish, how could we leave just like that!"
"What! You also ca for the Qingling Fish?" Changsun Yun exclaid, even if he were naive, he now realized that Zhang Cangyun might have been following him all along the way.
Earlier, because Wu Ming detected the presence of the Hidden Spirit Boat, Zhang Cangyun specifically kept a distance, making it impossible for Wu Ming to spot them.
It wasn’t until now, with the Giant Demon in chaos, that Zhang Cangyun brought the Hidden Spirit Boat to Crescent Island.
Zhang Cangyun sneered, looking at the giant tentacle rising outside Crescent Island, laughingly said, "That’s the Giant Demon, the Eight-clawed Sea Dragon Beast!"
"Seems like you Inner Disciples don’t know the rules of Crescent Island?"
"In that case, let enlighten you."
Zhang Cangyun chuckled.
His gaze fell on the Qingling Fish rushing before Crescent Island, laughingly said, "The Qingling Fish indeed only appears at Crescent Island during the Full Moon Ti!"
"And accompanying the Qingling Fish is the Eight-clawed Sea Dragon Beast!"
"The relationship between the Qingling Fish and the Eight-clawed Sea Dragon Beast is like that of friends!"
"The Qingling Fish uses Crescent Island to surface during the Full Moon Ti, devouring the essence of the sun and moon, and at this ti, the Eight-clawed Sea Dragon Beast also cos along, as if acting as the Qingling Fish’s bodyguard."
"And the purpose of the Eight-clawed Sea Dragon Beast’s arrival is to hunt."
"To hunt those warriors who want to capture the Qingling Fish."
Zhang Cangyun laughed as he spoke.
Hearing Zhang Cangyun’s words, Changsun Yun finally understood.
Lin Bai also caught on a bit, murmuring, "The Qingling Fish regards the Eight-clawed Sea Dragon Beast as a guardian, while the Eight-clawed Sea Dragon Beast uses the Qingling Fish as bait to lure warriors!"
"Is it a matter of mutual needs?"
Lin Bai’s eyes narrowed, his gaze becoming particularly grim.
Changsun Yun spoke at this mont, "Zhang Cangyun, you Outer Sect Junior Brother, since you understand so much about the Eight-clawed Sea Dragon Beast, do you have a strategy to counter it?"
Zhang Cangyun smiled aningfully, "I certainly do have a strategy!"
Changsun Yun’s face lit up with joy upon hearing this.
But the following words from Zhang Cangyun shattered Changsun Yun completely.
Only to see Zhang Cangyun walk directly to the beach of Crescent Island, clasping his fists towards the sea ahead, respectfully saying, "Great Demon, I offer the lives of these five people as tribute in exchange for five Qingling Fish!"
"I hope the Great Demon will accept this offer!"
Zhang Cangyun spoke with utmost reverence.
Rumble——
As soon as Zhang Cangyun’s voice fell, the sea shook violently, causing imnse sprays to splash upward.
Suddenly, from below the water surface, five Qingling Fish leaped out, landing directly into Zhang Cangyun’s hands.
Zhang Cangyun chuckled lightly, "Thank you, Great Demon."
Zhang Cangyun held the five vividly alive Qingling Fish, swiftly placing them into a water box within his Storage Bag.
"Zhang Cangyun, what have you done?"
Changsun Yun, both angry and ashad, shouted at this mont.
Zhang Cangyun returned with the water box, smiling, "Don’t bla , without a tribute to offer, anyone who tries to grab the Qingling Fish from the Great Demon is dood!"
"We originally ca to try our luck, to see if we could catch one or two leftover fish after the fish tide."
"But with your sudden appearance, things beca much easier."
Zhang Cangyun sneered.
"Perhaps you don’t know, in the God-Demon Sea, a single Qingling Fish is priced at a thousand jin of Spirit Liquid!"
Zhang Cangyun sneered.
"Kill them and throw them into the sea."
Zhang Cangyun smiled faintly.
When Zhang Cangyun’s voice ca, over thirty Outer Sect Martial Artists at the Great Perfection of the Yangshen Realm from the Hidden Spirit Boat leaped down, surrounding Lin Bai and the five.
Changsun Yun, ng Li, Wu Ming, and Shu Xiang all looked grim.
"Inner Sect Martial Artists?"
"Isn’t it said that Inner Sect Martial Artists are of the Life-and-Death Realm? Seems like these five have just joined the East Continent Academy not long ago."
"I have killed so many people, but never have I killed an Inner Disciple!"
At this mont, several Outer Sect Martial Artists began to get excited.
ng Li nervously asked, "Boss, what do we do now?"
Changsun Yun bore a pained expression, coldly saying, "Though our cultivation is similar to theirs, they have more numbers, we..."
Wu Ming coldly said, "Now is not the ti to be suspicious, we have no way out, we fight them!"
Changsun Yun said, "Wu Ming is right, we have no way back, there is a Giant Demon outside Crescent Island, we cannot escape for now, we have to fight them."
Wu Ming’s face darkened, drawing a dagger from his Storage Bag, his figure flickering, disappearing from sight!
"Way of the Assassin!"
Lin Bai looked at Wu Ming, a bit astonished on his face.
"Take action!"
When Wu Ming reappeared, the dagger in his hand was already striking towards the throat of an Outer Sect Martial Artist in front of him.
Slash——
Blood splattered.
Wu Ming’s strike directly slew this Outer Sect Martial Artist!
Simultaneously, Lin Bai’s eyes flickered, his Demonic Sword fiercely slashing forward!
"Hmph, an Eighth Level Yangshen Realm warrior dares to attack ? Even if you’re an Inner Disciple, you’re courting death!"
This Outer Sect Martial Artist at the Great Perfection of the Yangshen Realm snorted coldly, intending to draw his Treasure Sword to engage Lin Bai.
Yet, at that mont, Lin Bai’s sword light aiming at him abruptly accelerated, quickly sweeping across his throat, executing him.
It’s likely that this Outer Sect Martial Artist didn’t even figure out how Lin Bai did it in his dying monts.
Simultaneously, Changsun Yun, ng Li, Shu Xiang, and others also took action.
A fierce battle erupted on Crescent Island.
