"I'm sorry, Mr. Xia."
With a plop, a grandmaster from the Wang family knelt on the ground in fear, kowtowing profusely. "This is our fault. We did not teach him well, allowing this bastard to insult Mr. Xia's reputation."
"Please spare our lives, please spare us."
He hated the idiot Wang Rulong to death. He was a grandmaster with special privileges in the federal government. He could kill a few ordinary people with his own hands, and nothing would happen to him.
If someone dared to offend a grandmaster, the grandmaster would kill the other party personally. This was the dignity of a grandmaster.
However, this Wang Rulong actually wanted to smear the grandmaster's name without any evidence. If this was not courting death, what was? A grandmaster had just paid the price with his blood.
If they did not immediately appease the other party, it would not be surprising if they all died.
This was the sea anyway, and there was no one around. Even if they were all killed and the pirates were framed, no one would be able to find out anything, because this was the Boundless Sea.
Even kings had fallen many times in the sea. So what if some people died? Every time the king family went out on an adventure, many people would die. This was a very normal thing.
The others were also filled with regret. At this moment, they realized that this young man was not a martial artist or a martial artist, but a grandmaster who stood at the peak of the human world.
How could they doubt such an identity?!
He had saved them. Even if it was unintentional, it was still a great favor. They actually dared to doubt him without any evidence. If this was not heartless, what else could it be?
"Hang him up."
Xia Ping stood with his hands behind his back. He looked at Wang Rulong and said calmly, "Expose him to the sun for a day as a warning to others. Whoever dares to move will die."
His words were simple, but they contained a terrifying murderous aura that made people tremble.
"Yes, Mr. Xia!"
Hearing these words, the group of people immediately acted. Like soldiers, their hands and feet were very agile. They took out hemp ropes and immediately tied Wang Rulong up, hanging him on the flagpole.
"No! How dare you do this! Do you know who I am? Do you know what kind of person I, Wang Rulong, am?! Let me go, let me go immediately, you lowly commoners! "
Wang Rulong continued to struggle. His expression was ferocious and he was extremely angry. To be hung up in public and exposed to the sun for an entire day was a great humiliation for a descendant of the Wang clan.
However, in front of so many people, and with Xia Ping at the side, even the guards of the Wang family did not dare to act rashly. If they dared to move, they would die. The death of the Wang family's grandmaster was a bloody example.
Such ruthless methods immediately proved that this Grandmaster was not someone who could be easily bullied!
The Grandmaster who had dared to question him had already been killed. A spear had pierced through his heart.
The guards of the Wang Clan were trembling with fear. Their faces were pale, and they could not do anything even if they wanted to. Otherwise, not only would they not be able to save Wang Rulong, but they would also be buried with him.
After all, who would dare to clamor in front of a Grandmaster? Were they not afraid of death?!
"Alright, disperse and clean up the mess." Xia Ping waved his hand.
The group of people immediately dispersed. They cleaned up the corpses of the human warriors on the ship, treated the injured, repaired the parts destroyed by the Fishmen Pirates, cleaned the ship, and so on.
The other guards of the Wang family did not dare to stay. They could only watch as Wang Rulong was hung on the flagpole, exposed to the sun and rain, battered by the wind and rain.
Seeing the crowd leave, Jiang Yaru looked at Xia Ping seriously. "This Wang Rulong is a member of the Wang family. Are you not afraid of offending him? I'm afraid you'll cause a lot of trouble this time. "
"Haven't I offended enough people?" Xia Ping asked back.
Hearing this, Jiang Yaru was completely speechless. She had nothing to say. This guy had really offended a lot of people. Not to mention others, just the Demon Kings of the Myriad Demon Mountain alone, there were a lot of people who wanted to hack him to death.
She reckoned that a mere Wang family was really nothing to him.
However, she still felt a headache from this bad guy's ability to cause trouble.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. What's with that Geocentric Ganoderma?" Xia Ping asked curiously. He was very interested in this kind of elixir. If he could obtain it, it would definitely greatly increase his strength.
Just like how ordinary people wouldn't mind having more money, martial artists wouldn't mind having more elixirs on them.
"Geocentric Ganoderma. That's a martial arts organization. Because of a sea storm, they accidentally came to a mysterious island called Myriad Treasures Island. From there, they discovered the existence of the Geocentric Ganoderma."
Jiang Yaru said in a deep voice. "It's said that there are many elixirs on that island. The Geocentric Ganoderma is only one of them. Therefore, after receiving this news, I teamed up with this group of people and planned to go to the island to gain experience. However, I didn't expect to encounter the Fishmen Pirates before we even reached the island. "
"Where is that island?" Xia Ping immediately asked.
Jiang Yaru cast a sidelong glance at him. "You want to go too?"
"Of course. If there's an elixir appearing, why wouldn't I join in?" Xia Ping said as if it was a matter of course. "But since that martial arts organization discovered the Geocentric Ganoderma, why did they say it? Wouldn't it be better for them to keep it for themselves?"
He looked at Jiang Yaru.
"Under normal circumstances, that would be the case." Jiang Yaru said. "The problem is that the island is extremely dangerous. It seems that there are many tyrannical monsters living there. Even the vicinity of the island is very dangerous. From time to time, deep sea monsters appear."
"Not to mention the great danger on the island, even approaching the island is a troublesome matter."
"Before, that martial arts organization was only lucky enough to land on the island. When they escaped, they only narrowly escaped with their lives. Therefore, they believe that they don't have the ability to obtain the elixir, so they plan to sell this information for money."
She said that the island was extremely dangerous.
Dangerous?!
Xia Ping faintly smiled. Which part of this world wasn't dangerous? The Heavenly Demon Battlefield, the Zombie Mountain Range, the Cloud Mountain Range, and so on. Each and every one of them was a place where ordinary martial artists only narrowly escaped with their lives.
Did he really think that he could safely obtain the treasure without any danger? That was only the ravings of a lunatic!
Jiang Yaru looked at the expression in Xia Ping's eyes. She knew that this guy absolutely had no intention of giving up. In fact, she was the same. If she was only worried about the danger, she wouldn't have followed the group to that place.
"Alright, I can tell you. But I also want to go with you. Moreover, I also want to send these injured people to be treated first." Jiang Yaru said in a deep voice.
"No problem." Xia Ping waved his hand.
One day later, the ship sailed to a nearby port. They planned to send the injured people on the ship to be treated.
But just as they entered the port, they were surrounded by several battleships. The battleships impressively had the word "Wang" hanging on them. These battleships were impressively the forces under the Wang Family.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!
Soon, many fully-armed people boarded the ship. They were densely packed and surrounded the ship so tightly that not even a drop of water could trickle through.
"Uncle!"
