Granny Bizhu nimbly turned around and stopped in midair. Without batting an eyelid, he had already quickly observed his surroundings.
She had fought in the bewildering world more than once and was very clear about the rules here.
The Starlight Sacred Tower in the distant starry sky also told her where this place was.
Reverend Chong Guang followed Wei Xun's instructions and chose a very fair area. The only floating island here didn't belong to the Sea-fishing Tower or Jueming Island.
Although in theory, all human cultivators should be treated equally on the floating island, it was inevitable that different forces would be biased to different degrees. This was something that no one could avoid.
Mogg Valley's forces were famous for being impartial in the bewildering world and only focused on fighting the sea race.
As long as they didn't fight directly on the floating island, no one would interfere with her and Jiang Wang's fight.
This was good.
This was too good!
When the Sect Master decided to put Jiang Wang and her in the same area, she had already rekindled her hope.
She had enough confidence in her strength and her accumulation over the years.
Jiang Wang was a young Tianjiao and time was his greatest friend. However, in the matter of accumulation, time was also his greatest enemy. He definitely didn't have enough experience, far from enough.
Of course, he would have some good stuff on him. She had seen all the little tricks his friends had been playing when they were sending him off.
But it didn't matter.
Of course, it didn't matter.
These things would all become her resources. They would help her get closer to God's Descent again …
She had already lost hope. Starting from scratch … was too difficult. But if she could get Jiang Wang's hands, that thing that even Hai Zongming coveted … Perhaps everything could be restarted.
What was that thing? She didn't know. But it must be very important.
What she said to Zhu Biqiong before parting at the Tianya Stage was true. That apology was also true.
But that apology wasn't for what had happened before, but for what had happened afterwards.
Because such a young man had gone through fire and water for Zhu Biqiong, interrupted the Sea Sacrifice Ceremony, mobilized his terrifying connections, and still wanted to save her in front of a True Monarch expert and give her such a grand romance … But she wanted to kill this person with her own hands.
She was apologizing for this.
When Jiang Wang said that he only treated Zhu Biqiong as a friend, she didn't believe it. In her opinion, that was just an excuse for Jiang Wang to choose Qi, but he didn't dare to reject Fishing Sea Tower.
There was no up, down, left, or right in the Bewildering World. One could only use one's own body as a reference. The Starlight Sacred Tower's senses could only help to lock onto the general area.
However, this feeling was not unfamiliar to him.
Granny Bizhu was very clear that Jiang Wang's "unfamiliarity" with the environment would be his biggest disadvantage. Even if he had the map of Jue Ming Island in his hands, he could not immediately eliminate the sense of unfamiliarity.
Kill Jiang Wang as soon as possible. Because the "strangeness" would disappear with time.
She was confident in her own strength. At the same time, she would never underestimate Tianjiao's ability to adapt. She would never underestimate the background of those famous families. The gifts that those people had given to Jiang Wang might be extraordinary.
Granny Bizhu flicked her little finger, and a water droplet flew out and turned into her appearance. As for herself, she transformed into a water droplet and followed behind him.
Everyone on Crescent Island knew that Elder Bizhu's ability was to tame beasts. She had almost never used her illusory ability in front of others. However, after cultivating in Fishing Sea Tower for so long, how could she not know anything about illusory techniques?
Over a long period of time, she had accumulated a lot of experience.
Hai Zongming died in a hurry, but she would not. She was more cautious than the weak. She would do everything she could to prevent accidents from happening.
Because this might be her last chance.
She roughly sensed the location of the floating island with the Starlight Sacred Tower. The water droplet transformed into Granny Bizhu chose a direction and flew quickly.
…
…
On the Tianya Stage, Venerable Chong Guang waved his hand and swept away Jiang Wang and Granny Bizhu.
Wei Xun strode to the main seat and ordered, "Take Zhu Biqiong to one side. The sea ritual continues."
On the main seats, Yang Feng, Qi Xiao, and Jiang Wuyou stood obediently. When Wei Xun sat down on the big chair in the middle, they did not take another seat.
With Wei Xun here, only a Perfected Cultivator could sit with him.
Hai Jingping stood up once again to preside over the Sea Sacrifice Ceremony.
He seemed to have completely forgotten what happened just now. There was no anger or grievance on his face.
"Here we go …"
The drums sounded again. The black-armored soldiers escorted the prisoners up the stairs again. Other than Zhu Biqiong, who was taken to the side, nothing seemed to have changed.
Chongxuan, Ming He, and Chung Geng Sheng had already taken their seats to watch the ceremony. The Five Immortal Sect's Sect Leader Xu Zhilan and Elder Fan Qingqing followed behind them. This showed that the Five Immortal Sect had completely leaned towards the Junggenjia. Of course, the Five Immortal Sect did not rely on the Junggenjia. Instead, they wanted to rely on the Junggenjia to get closer to Qi. However, within the scope of Qi's influence, they would be closer to the Junggenjia.
Lu Hua, who was the servant of Fishing Sea Tower, squeezed into the crowd without saying a word. Everything at Fishing Sea Tower was definitely over. After the sea ritual ended, he would return to Jueming Island. At that time, Jiang Wuyou would naturally have other arrangements for him.
"I just received news." Chongxuan, Ming He, transmitted his voice: "Chong Ji Island was attacked by pirates. All the defensive formations were destroyed. The resources accumulated on the island were all plundered. The Nine Profound Sect on the nearby island sent out cultivators to chase the pirates away and raised their flag on Chong Ji Island. "
There were so many cultivation sects on the offshore islands, but pirates had never disappeared.
Most of them were traitors and heretics. They hid in some inaccessible sea regions and occasionally came out to plunder.
Of course, there were many pirates who had factions supporting them.
The pirates that attacked Chong Ji Island clearly belonged to this faction.
Taking advantage of Chongxuan, Ming He's absence, they attacked accurately.
They destroyed the Junggenjia's operations on Chong Ji Island, destroyed the formations and plundered everything of value. Chong Ji Island became an ownerless land. Since the Nine Profound Sect chased away the pirates, they naturally became the new owner of Chong Ji Island.
This method was simple and crude. Unless one had a powerful background, they could not force it.
The Junggenjia had the power to retaliate against the pirates, but they could not directly attack the Nine Profound Sect. Behind the Nine Profound Sect stood Fishing Sea Tower's fourth elder, Gu Huaixin.
In other words, from now on, Chong Ji Island was gone.
Chongxuan, Ming He's voice did not contain any joy or sorrow, but there was no doubt that the Junggenjia had suffered a great loss this time.
Chung Geng Sheng did not say much, only replying: "I will definitely take responsibility for uncle's loss."
This was one of Granny Bizhu's plans. He had already realized this beforehand. It was just that Chongxuan, Ming He, was still holding onto a fluke mentality.
How could there be a fluke?
Granny Bizhu was thrown into the bewildering world, but Gu Huaixin, who was behind her, did not move.
Chongxuan, Ming He, did not say whether he believed it or not. He only looked at the scene, as if he was focused on the ceremony.
Although this pair of uncle and nephew were not enemies, they were not close either.
Chongxuan, Ming He's complicated feelings towards his second brother, Chongxuan Mingtu, seemed to be projected onto his second brother's son. It was very difficult to have a clear attitude towards this.
At the same time, the alienation towards the other Junggenjia, which had formed since childhood, could not be easily erased in Chung Geng Sheng's heart.
When it came to each other, in their interactions, they did not know what to do.
On the field, Hai Jingping finally finished announcing the crimes of all the prisoners. This time, nothing unexpected happened.
All the prisoners were escorted to the front of the cliff, facing the sea, with their backs to the crowd.
Their cultivations were all crippled, and they cowered in the sea breeze.
Some howled, some remained silent, and some begged for mercy. However, there was no response.
"Please sacrifice them!" Hai Jingping announced.
The black-armored soldiers did not say a word, only pushing the prisoners forward in unison!
Forty-four prisoners fell into the sea together.
It seemed that they did not hear any screams, but it also seemed that they had appeared, only to be annihilated by the sea breeze.
Falling from such a high place, these prisoners who had lost their cultivations would definitely not be spared.
Hai Jingping raised his hands and announced loudly: "Souls, return!"
"Souls, return!"
Everyone raised their hands high and shouted.
