While Jin Buhuan's cabin was the largest and most luxurious on the ship, it wasn't that spacious.
With two people in it, it already seemed a little cramped. However, there was one more person in the cabin.
Only when that person spoke did Jin Buhuan and Jin Mingyuan realize that something was wrong. This gave the two of them a huge fright.
Jin Buhuan was still fine and could barely maintain his composure. Jin Mingyuan was in a much worse state. Fear radiated from his tiny eyes and spread to his long, black face. He instinctively stood up as well.
The two of them looked in the direction of the voice and realized that there was a tall man standing in the corner beside the cabin door.
Jin Buhuan's eyes narrowed when he saw that person. This wasn't the man in black that he had seen on the Seven Maidens Pleasure Boat.
He had clearly followed them over. The scariest thing was that he didn't feel anything.
"It's you again. Who are you?" Jin Buhuan suppressed his fear and asked calmly.
"What secret does Jiang Yueyi have that you have to obtain her?"
Gao Zhengyang ignored Jin Buhuan's words and asked directly.
"Impudent!"
Jin Mingyuan mustered up his courage and said, "My lord is the deputy admiral of the navy, a fourth-rank Fubo General. You barged into the Iron Crocodile Ship without permission and that's a capital offense. Threatening a general of the imperial court is a crime punishable by death. "
"That's all."
Gao Zhengyang took two steps forward and said, "It seems like you guys don't know your situation."
"What do you mean?" Jin Mingyuan didn't want to stand up but he had to.
"It's not your place to speak. Shut up," Gao Zhengyang chided.
His voice wasn't loud but it seemed to be filled with boundless might. Jin Mingyuan felt his blood surge. His vision suddenly turned black and he fainted.
Jin Buhuan also felt his essence qi fluctuate and his Martial Soul fluctuate violently. It felt like a ship encountering a strong gale and huge waves. It was shaking violently and seemed like it could collapse at any moment.
Just one sentence from the other party had such might. Jin Buhuan was stunned and didn't have the courage to resist.
Jin Buhuan forced a smile. "Let's talk."
"Tell me, what do you want with Jiang Yueyi?" Gao Zhengyang asked again.
Jin Buhuan had no choice but to repeat what he had told Qiniang. He said that he had a grudge against Jiang Zhenggong, so he wanted to get Jiang Yueyi.
In the end, he defended himself, "I also know that it's not good to seek revenge on a little girl, but Jiang Zhenggong disguised himself as a pirate and specialized in robbing and robbing forces that were hostile to the Jiujiang Gang. His methods were cruel, and he often killed entire families. Dozens of my brothers were killed by him because they were suppressing bandits. How can I not take revenge for this blood feud … "
Gao Zhengyang didn't say anything, but his gaze on Jin Buhuan grew colder and colder.
Jin Buhuan felt his hair stand on end. As he spoke, he automatically shut his mouth.
"I'll ask again, why are you looking for Jiang Yueyi?" Gao Zhengyang asked again.
This time, Priceless Gold didn't dare to lie anymore. He didn't dare to look at Gao Zhengyang. He lowered his head and continued to ponder.
Gao Zhengyang wasn't in a hurry, so he waited patiently.
The two of them didn't speak, and the atmosphere became increasingly heavy and cold. Jin Buhuan felt more and more pressure.
This wasn't just psychological pressure, but also the immense pressure of his Martial Soul.
Jin Buhuan cultivated the Blackwater Flying Snake Martial Soul.
The Blackwater Flying Snake was venomous, and its body was tough and powerful. It was as fast as a bird underwater, and it was sly by nature. It was an extremely terrifying underwater demon beast.
Jin Buhuan cultivated the Blackwater Flying Snake Poison Sutra. He killed 36 Blackwater Flying Snakes, extracted their venom, and absorbed the power of their souls. Only then did he cultivate the Blackwater Flying Snake Martial Soul.
Under the pressure of Gao Zhengyang's invisible aura, the Blackwater Flying Snake Martial Soul in Jin Buhuan's Palace had already coiled up.
Jin Buhuan didn't know how strong his opponent was, but his Martial Soul was instinctively afraid of some kind of power. If this went on, his Martial Soul might be forcefully crushed in no time.
"I'll talk, I'll talk." Jin Buhuan couldn't take it anymore, so he had to confess. "Jiang Zhenggong obtained a Mysterious Underworld Pearl in his early years. I heard that it's a Mysterious Underworld Beast's Inner Core. The Inner Core seems to contain the secret of an ancient treasure. "
"Ancient treasure?"
Gao Zhengyang felt that Jin Buhuan wasn't lying through his Martial Soul. However, how could there be so many treasures? Even if there were, Jiang Zhenggong would have dug them out long ago. There wouldn't be anyone else's turn.
Jin Buhuan could hear the doubt in Gao Zhengyang's voice. Afraid that he wouldn't believe him, he hurriedly explained, "According to the Primordial Sutra, there have been 107 eras since the world was born. Every era will give birth to a brilliant civilization. Every era will leave behind a large number of treasures when a civilization is destroyed. If that's the case, who knows how many ancient treasures there are in this world. No one knows which era the Mysterious Underworld Beast came from, so it's not strange that it left behind treasures. "
This was the first time Gao Zhengyang had heard of such a saying. However, after thinking about it carefully, it made sense.
Eras could be destroyed, but some things couldn't be destroyed.
Gao Zhengyang asked again, "Who else knows about this?"
Jin Buhuan smiled bitterly. "Many people know about this."
"I see …"
Gao Zhengyang sighed. "You're smart. I'll spare your life this time."
As he spoke, Gao Zhengyang raised his hand and pressed it towards Jin Buhuan's face.
Jin Buhuan was shocked. He didn't dare to believe Gao Zhengyang. He hurriedly tried to resist. However, the Blackwater Flying Serpent Martial Soul in his God Palace was firmly suppressed.
No matter how Jin Buhuan tried, he couldn't circulate his Essence Qi as he wished. He felt like he was in a nightmare as he watched Gao Zhengyang point his finger at him. However, he couldn't move his body or raise his hand to block it.
Cold sweat trickled down Jin Buhuan's face. His eyes widened due to fear, and his muscles started to tremble uncontrollably. His organs also went out of control.
A Heaven-ranked expert actually lost control under the immense pressure of fear.
Regardless of Jin Buhuan's reaction, Gao Zhengyang didn't show any mercy. He pointed at Jin Buhuan's glabella.
The sharp Essence Qi pierced Jin Buhuan's God Palace. It cut off all of his consciousness.
Gao Zhengyang didn't kill him. He only used his Martial Soul to attack Jin Buhuan's consciousness, causing him to temporarily lose his memory.
It was all thanks to his Divine Dragon aura that he was able to suppress Jin Buhuan so easily. It had a strong suppression on a snake-type Martial Soul like the Blackwater Flying Serpent. That was why a Heaven-ranked expert was so easily subdued.
After the battle with the Purple Heart Lotus, Gao Zhengyang's Martial Soul was severely injured. Even the Rank Nine Dragon Emperor Armor was shattered. His current strength wasn't even half of what it was at his peak.
However, it was enough to deal with ordinary Rank Seven and Rank Eight experts.
Gao Zhengyang asked about the situation and didn't have the mood to stay any longer. Jiang Zhenggong wasn't a good person, but Jiang Yueyi was fated. Since he met her, he had to help her.
He quietly left the warship and returned to the pleasure boat. He saw Seventh Madam the moment he entered the cabin.
Seventh Madam was wearing a pink dress with a green dudou and skirt inside. Her curves were faintly discernible and were extremely alluring. However, her expression was very serious, and there was a murderous look in her eyes.
"Where did you go?" Seventh Madam asked coldly.
