211: Chapter 211 Spirit Guard

The person speaking was none other than Lin Zhong.

He looked at Mei Yong with an ugly expression.

Back then, several of them had been introduced by him.

He hadn't expected that in just two short years, they would climb right over his head.

He didn't really care about such things, but when it came to Monk Lu Da, that was a different story.

Mei Yong acted as if he hadn't heard, and after saying one sentence, he didn't speak again.

The people of Shuibo Island were used to acting arrogantly in the Chaotic Star Sea. They were all ruthless individuals gathered from various places, and he believed that many of them would not be willing to yield.

And indeed, that was the case.

"Either we just attack directly and demand they release the person, or we just ignore it. What's the point of going to beg for mercy? If we insist on doing that, there's no point in staying in Shuibo anymore. I'd be embarrassed if I ran into fellow practitioners outside. If you ask me, let's just attack. It just so happens that the Daming Dynasty is restless right now; does Yuan Chen really want to offend another major power like us?"

A middle-aged man, holding a... man, stroked him while speaking in a deep voice.

The surrounding men followed suit, one by one.

Monk Lu Da had many friends, but there were also quite a few who didn't like him.

"Well, it's not about begging for mercy, just discussing it to figure out what the conflict is. Young Master Yuan doesn't look like a bad person!"

At this moment, Yang Zi finally spoke up.

Although Yuan Chen had taken his family heirloom when he left, it was a fact that he had saved their couple, and he was a man who knew how to repay kindness, so he was unwilling to go against Yuan Chen.

The words were directed at everyone, but his gaze remained fixed on his only good friend, Wu Yang.

Since receiving the news, the other party hadn't said a word, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"What kind of nonsense is that? What reason do we need? Someone bullied our brother, so why not just fight? When the Crown Prince of the Qiuniu Clan provoked us before, didn't we just slaughter him? The Qiuniu Clan just went through the motions and slunked back, didn't they?"

The middle-aged man spoke again.

"Big Brother is right!"

The delicate man in his arms stroked the man's chest gently.

He even mischievously drew a cute little circle on the other's chest with the tip of his pinky finger.

"If you ask me, this Yuan Chen clearly knows Monk Lu Da's identity and doesn't want to provoke Shuibo, which is why he hasn't killed him yet. If we go over and bite back, he'll definitely be scared into submission. Besides, that Yuan Chen is a total beauty; maybe we'll even have a chance to get a taste of her, hahaha!"

"Big Brother~"

The man in his arms called out resentfully.

"Who agrees with Qilin?" Chieftain Song He scanned the room, his gaze, like Yang Zi's, landing on Wu Yang.

Among those present, he had the closest relationship with Monk Lu Da, and it was unknown what he was thinking.

As for the matter of the Qiuniu Clan that Qilin mentioned, none of the people present said anything more.

Everyone knew the truth of what really happened.

Back then, the Qiuniu Clan had come to their doorstep, but the Formation of Shuibo Island was profound, and they had stubbornly huddled inside their turtle shell, refusing to send anyone out.

They were blocked at the door for five whole years, and the Qiuniu Clan only left when they finally lost patience.

Over these years, quite a few brothers had died outside at the hands of the Qiuniu Clan.

"I will go to the Eastern Wasteland alone to beg Yuan Chen; it has nothing to do with Shuibo."

Wu Yang, who had been silent for a long while, spoke up directly.

He knew what kind of place Shuibo was and didn't hold any hope. He turned and left after speaking.

Now Chieftain Song He panicked. There were many brothers standing behind Wu Yang and Monk Lu Da. If Wu Yang left, wouldn't the others follow?

He immediately grabbed Wu Yang, who was about to walk out the door.

"Brother Wu Yang, tell me, why are you in such a rush? Monk Lu Da is our brother too; could we really not save him? Aren't we discussing it right now? Are you sure that if you go to beg Yuan Chen, Yuan Chen will release him?"

Wu Yang stopped, his brows furrowed. He clearly knew that what Chieftain Song He said was correct.

Who was he? He didn't even have any Face. As for using money to redeem someone... it had all been used for Cultivation, so he really didn't have much.

Moreover, the Dragon Clan lacked nothing but treasures; they truly wouldn't look down on their meager offerings.

He silently sat back down.

"That's more like it!"

Patting Wu Yang on the shoulder, Chieftain Song He breathed a sigh of relief.

After sitting back in his seat, he pondered for a moment.

"How about this: we split into two groups. One group goes to the Desolate Domain to find Yuan Chen and tries to see if we can easily bring Monk Lu Da out. Another group goes to make contact with the Daming Dynasty. Word is that the Daming Dynasty has already cleared the surrounding areas and is about to take action against Yuan Chen. At that time, by cooperating with the Daming Dynasty, not only can we save Monk Lu Da, but we can also get a slice of the pie!"

Chieftain Song He scanned the room, and seeing that most people were tempted, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

He continued, "It's all in the Eastern Wasteland, so everyone is close by. If anything happens, we can look out for each other."

The combat power of Shuibo was very strong, but it depended on who you compared it to. If they wanted to intervene in the battle between Daming and Yuan Chen, they would definitely have to mobilize their entire nest and rely on their great Formation to have any say.

"I'll go to the Desolate Domain."

Wu Yang said coldly.

"Then I'll go too."

Looking at everyone, Yang Zi also immediately spoke up.

Not to mention that he didn't want to be enemies with Yuan Chen, the Daming Dynasty had a blood feud with him for destroying his sect, and he was unwilling to cooperate with them.

"Having two people go to test the waters is enough. Then the other brothers will go to the Eastern Wasteland's Heavenly Domain together to find the Daming Dynasty!"

Seeing that others wanted to follow Wu Yang, Chieftain Song He immediately interrupted.

He lacked a sense of security.

It didn't matter if two people were missing; finding two similar brothers to fill in would still allow them to activate the great Formation, but if too many people left, there would be no way.

Those who were on good terms with Wu Yang could only suppress their thoughts.

They had many enemies outside, and they also needed Chieftain Song He's protection.

After discussing for a while, and with no further issues, everyone dispersed.

The next day, they left Shuibo Island together and headed towards the Eastern Wasteland.

...

"This capital of the Daming Dynasty is truly extraordinary!"

Heavenly Domain.

Yuan Chen gazed at the high walls in the distance and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

They were currently staying in a restaurant in a small county town a few thousand miles away from the Daming capital.

Yet even from here, one could see the city walls of the imperial capital piercing the clouds, with a majestic Aura.

"After all, it is a super overlord that rules over two great domains."

Ye Lingling looked into the distance and also felt a wave of emotion.

Thinking back to the Exotic Beast Mansion in the Desolate Domain... there was no comparison.

"Don't just stare; come, eat."

Yuan Chen served a few pieces of meat to each of the children.

The three children were all eating until their mouths were glistening with oil.

To be honest, the Human Race's cooking techniques were definitely unmatched by any other race.

In the three days since getting off the Divine Ship, they had been eating their way through the journey.

Having not eaten much proper food, the three children wanted to try everything they saw.

Two of them were Ye Lingling's children.

And one was Luo Xinyi's child, Yuan Yun.

During his closed-door Cultivation, Yuan Chen's Divine Ship had been left casually in the courtyard for his wives to use.

He hadn't paid attention when they set off.

It was only after traveling for a while that he discovered Yuan Yun hiding in a room on the Divine Ship Cultivating, so he brought her along.

"How dare you kill someone in a county under the jurisdiction of the Daming Dynasty? You're courting death! The Yunling Guard will arrive immediately."

Just as they were eating, a commotion broke out on the street, and then a figure flew into mid-air.

Not long after, a pure white, transparent light shadow chased after him.

Yunling Guard?
