Light Cultivation
Eps. 130 — Demon Skull Pirates
The pirate ship forcefully squeezed the ship until the two ships collided, a violent shock immediately caused some passengers to lose their balance and fall to their feet.
The pirate crew threw the rope to make sure the second ship was completely stuck, before long they jumped and landed on the passenger ship.
The number of pirate ship crews is much more, numbering in the hundreds and each of them is a swordsman.
One of them landed but looked to have a different appearance from most pirate members, the person had a beard and a large hat on his head that depicted a skull.
Those who had a single glance would find out that he was the captain, let alone the strength of that person being in the Life Realm was different from the others who were on average still in the Soul Realm.
Before the pirate captain spoke, the owner of the ship had already hurriedly walked up to him while carrying a leather pouch.
"Pirate Master, my name is Bai Li, the owner of this ship. I pass through this sea lane every day I wish the Pirate Lord generosity and let us escape. I have a number of gold coins to present to the Pirate Lord and all..."
The pirate captain saw the ship's owner's gold coins in the pouch before he slammed it to the floor. "Are you crazy, just this kind of money and you wish you could get through me? You're deliberately demeaning me, huh?!"
"Even Mr. Pirate, I dare not! That's all the money we've got today, lately we've only got a few passengers because they tend to be afraid to board because... "
The owner of the ship hastily shut his mouth and could not continue his speech anymore because of them the passengers became quiet.
The Pirate Captain laughed, "you want to say that we are the cause of your passengers being deserted, is that what you want to say?!"
"Prepare me, prepare me! I dare not offend you." The ship's owner was starting to get scared.
The pirate captain laughed mockingly at the behavior of the owner of the ship, his men were just as laughing as his boss.
"You think maybe I'm a generous pirate who's only given money you can get away from me like most pirates. But unfortunately my pirate group is different!" The Pirate Captain looked at the passengers instilling fear in the beholder.
The Pirate Captain laughed. "I am a Demon Skull pirate, whoever my prey is I never let live!"
The Ship's owner and the other passengers were terrified when they heard the name, it was clear they recognized the Demon Skull pirates.
The Demon Skull was one of the most notorious pirates because of its cruelty, they committed many crimes on other ships, kidnapped its passengers or at worst they could kill all the people on that ship.
Countless ships had already fallen into his hands, smashing and sinking them without the slightest remnant. No one had survived the encounter with the Demon Skull pirates until now.
Everyone on board was terrified, including the stewards, not even thinking that today they were sailing would meet the famous pirate.
The Pirate Captain laughed loudly with his men as if he was enjoying their fears before the laughter came to a halt when someone spoke to him.
"I didn't expect to meet you so soon, I honestly didn't plan on looking for you but fate turned out to be really good at meeting us quickly..." A young man who was none other than Juan Chen smiled at the pirates as he walked slowly towards him.
The Pirate Captain narrowed his eyes, he could see the youngster was not afraid of his big name not to mention he was seen carrying a sword.
The pirate captain believed that at the moment Jian Chen could not see his cultivation that was in the Life Realm Stage 5.
Jian Chen smiled mockingly. "I? Can't see your cultivation? I'll ask you back, can you see my cultivation as well?"
The pirate captain then only realized that the young man in front of him could not be explored his cultivation but even so he did not believe it because it was impossible for a teenager to surpass adult cultivation.
Jian Chen continued walking until he stood near the Ship Owner, he whispered softly to him and told him to retreat because Jian Chen was going against them himself.
The pirate captain naturally immediately realized Jian Chen's stratagem, "You think you can act as you please in front of me, no one can run away from the Demon Skull pirates!"
The Pirate Captain pulled out his machete then swung it at Jian Chen.
Jian Chen smiled sinisterly, without turning his head to the swing of the sword he caught the swing of the machete with both fingers.
The face of the Pirate Captain became tense and hurriedly pulled his machete quickly, as if he could not believe watching it even though his opponent was not looking at his attack.
The Pirate Captain snorted and then again slashed the machete again this time using great deep power on his weapon, he was sure Jian Chen would not be strong enough to withstand his attack but it turned out that his opponent could still withstand the attack and now Jian Chen caught his machete with the grasp of a hand that was already an ice hand.
Jian Chen hardened his hand grip making the pirate machete break into pieces.
The talisman was indeed not an heirloom so only with sufficient profound strength could Jian Chen destroy it.
All so suddenly, before the pirate took his distance Jian Chen had already first dealt a powerful blow to his stomach making the bearded man flung backwards regarding his men with a broken rib.
The Ship Owner who was initially reluctant to obey Jian Chen but after seeing his strength instantly obeyed his orders. Jian Chen ordered the owner of the ship to bring the passengers into the hull.
Jian Chen did not immediately move forward as he waited for the passengers to hide while the pirate captain assisted his members to heal his internal injuries using deep power.
It takes a little time for all passengers to get into the hull so that the condition of the pirate captain is stable when all passengers have finished.
The pirate captain could see his men terrified to see his captain lose in a single strike. "You're afraid of a young man like him, don't just shut up, attack him at the same time!"
The dozens of men were actually reluctant to fight Jian Chen but they were more afraid of his fierce captain. They had no choice but to storm Jian Chen.
Jian Chen smiled sinisterly, he could see the pirate captain was intent on sacrificing his men to escape in disbelief winning against him.
Sure enough, as his members advanced along with the pirate captain jumped onto his ship again.
In just a single exchange of attacks the Pirate Captain learned of the situation that even they were all fighting Jian Chen would not be able to win against him except just to deliver lives.
Jian Chen laughed at the actions of the pirate captain who he thought was shameless, he took out the sword from its scabbard before killing the pirate members who attacked him.
