Chapter 158: Retreating from the Grandmaster, Ascending to Fusang, and a Fierce Voice Transmission
A huge, ferocious tentacle rushed out from the seawater that had been split open by the ‘Grand Tiger’, heading straight for Situ Zhong.
A deathly aura filled the air.
This aura was shocking!
It seemed calm, but it could destroy everything!
The powerful blade light was scattered layer by layer after being hit by the tentacle.
It was as if it had been weathered and could not be resisted at all!
In the next moment, the tentacle arrived in front of Situ Zhong.
The veteran was shocked, but he reacted quickly.
He immediately punched out, trying to block this strange tentacle.
The fist force roared and surged out like waves, blocking the huge and ferocious tentacle outside.
Looking at his posture, he couldn’t break through for a while.
However, Su Mu couldn’t afford to delay, he had to kill his way out in a short period of time!
Under his control, the tentacle opened up a small opening and shot out a slender poisonous sting.
This poisonous spike was very powerful. It directly broke through Situ Zhong’s fist force and turned into a black light that stabbed towards him!
Everything happened too suddenly, and the speed of the poisonous sting was even more shocking.
Situ Zhong tried his best to dodge, but he only managed to avoid the fatal part. The poisonous spike still pierced his left arm.
In an instant, his left arm was like a withered weed, withered and lifeless.
Moreover, this trend was spreading up his left arm!
If he didn’t take any measures, this veteran who had experienced hundreds of battles would probably die here today!
Fortunately, Situ Zhong was extremely decisive and did not hesitate at all after seeing this situation. He immediately waved his knife and cut off his left arm.
In an instant, the severed arm flew out, and blood spurted out.
Fortunately, the other parts of his body were saved.
..
“This power…How strange!”
After losing his arm, Situ Zhong immediately covered his wound and retreated hundreds of meters. His face was filled with fear.
This power reminded him of a terrifying legend about the deep sea.
Could this legend be true?
“Protect General Situ!”
Seeing Situ Zhong injured, the soldiers under his command were shocked and immediately attacked the ferocious tentacles.
Sharp arrows and nail guns were shot over.
However, after the attack, the huge tentacle turned into dust and disappeared into the sea.
The power given by the sea monster was only enough for Su Mu to use once.
After repelling and breaking Situ Zhong’s arm, Su Mu immediately fled into the distance.
Other than Situ Zhong, no one could catch up to him!
The other soldiers could only be anxious.
..
“General Situ, are you alright?”
After Situ Zhong returned to the ship, Takeda Shota came over and asked.
Situ Zhong glanced at him with an ugly expression and said coldly,
“You seem to be very happy that I am injured?”
“I wouldn’t dare! I’m just worried about General’s injuries.”
Shota Takeda bowed respectfully.
However, the more Situ Zhong looked at him, the more disgusted he felt.
After snorting coldly, he no longer cared about him and ordered his soldiers,
“Destroy this group of pirates for this general, then go and hunt down the rest!”
“Yes, sir!”
Of the remaining pirates, apart from Su Mu, not a single one could escape.
They were all surrounded and annihilated on the spot!
Situ Zhong even sent several Qi Practitioners to set up a formation underwater to prevent the pirates from escaping.
If one’s strength did not reach a certain level, they would only die in such a tight net.
After this battle, there would be no more Raven Pirates!
※※※※※※
A day later, Su Mu finally found Li Yaqin and the others and met up with them.
“Son, it’s good that you’re fine. It’s good that you’re fine!”
Seeing Su Mu return safe and sound, Li Yaqin finally heaved a sigh of relief, her eyes overflowing with tears.
“Mother, don’t worry, I’ll be fine.”
Su Mu consoled her a few words, then glanced at the others.
The twenty or so people on the small boat were all dejected and looked defeated.
The Raven Pirates had been at sea for almost twenty years.
How awe-inspiring was that!
In the end, after being targeted by the Mountain Suppressing Lord, they were wiped out without any resistance!
This huge gap made them feel hopeless and powerless.
Seeing this, Su Mu shouted angrily,
“Cheer up! Who was he showing off his half-dead look to? Don’t forget, the chase is not over yet! If you really want to die, just jump into the sea and commit suicide!”
Hearing this, Luo Wu straightened his body and asked Su Mu:
“Brother Mu, what should we do now?”
“The warships are gone, not a single one!”
After Luo Wu asked this question, almost everyone turned to look at Su Mu.
Obviously, they were also filled with confusion and wanted to know the answer to this question.
Su Mu glanced at Li Yaqin and found that she was the same.
It seemed that the current situation was so bad that everyone had no idea. They were all hoping that someone could point out a way.
..
“We can’t stay at sea anymore. Without the warship, the Mountain Suppressing Lord’s men were still looking for them. If this continued, they would be caught sooner or later.”
“Let’s go to Fu Sang Country!”
Su Mu pondered for a moment and gave an answer.
The source of this calamity was Fu Sang Country.
He had to find out who was behind this and who invited the fleet under King Zhenshan to destroy them.
Only then would he be able to respond in the next life.
Judging from the current situation, this was not the best choice.
The best choice would be to go to a smaller island country and accumulate strength to make a comeback!
Su Mu was already prepared to persuade them.
However, to his surprise, everyone, including Li Yaqin, had no objections.
After hearing this suggestion, they all nodded in agreement.
As such, Su Mu saved a lot of effort.
“In that case, let’s set off! The target is Fu Sang Country!”
He stood at the bow of the ship, his gaze sharp and unyielding.
….
Fu Sang Country was one of the largest island countries in the South China Sea. It was slightly smaller than the Great Qian Province.
Before this, Su Mu did not know much about the country.
This time, he might be able to experience the exotic atmosphere.
More than ten days later, they landed in Fu Sang Country from a small fishing village.
What he saw was a dilapidated and extremely poor country!
“Fu Sang Country’s cargo ships are all good goods. How can they be so poor?”
Luo Wu asked in confusion as he sneaked into the small fishing village.
They even saw several old men starving to death on the small road in the village!
That skinny appearance was shocking!
From this, it could be seen how poor the people of Fu Sang Country were.
“A rich country doesn’t mean the people are rich. Moreover, Fu Sang Country was not rich. Only a few large families were rich.”
“Let’s not talk about this. Let’s find a place to rest first.”
After explaining for a while, Su Mu led everyone to find a place to rest.
Su Mu knew very well that the most important thing for them right now was to rest.
After so many consecutive days of fleeing, each of them was extremely exhausted.
He had to recover properly!
Li Yaqin nodded in agreement.
She had intentionally or unintentionally handed the command to her son, hoping that he would become the new leader.
Actually, there was one more thing that Su Mu didn’t say.
The power that Ning lent him was extremely powerful, causing some damage to his body.
His injuries were not serious, but he still needed to recuperate.
..
Soon, Su Mu led the group to a few empty houses at the edge of the village.
After sneaking in and cleaning up a little, they lay down and fell asleep.
After resting for a few days, everyone gradually recovered.
Su Mu’s injuries were almost healed.
This dilapidated fishing village had five out of ten rooms. There were very few people, and there were many old people.
They probably wouldn’t be able to find them for a while.
Even if they did, a group of sallow and emaciated villagers posed no threat to the elites of the Raven Pirates.
After thinking for a while, Su Mu decided to go and complete the Mermaid Empress Ming Yue’s side quest.
It was not good to take the deposit and not do anything.
More importantly, the ancestral treasure of the Spiritual Pearl Branch, the Elemental Spiritual Pearl, was very important to Su Mu.
The Elemental Spiritual Pearl could speed up cultivation, which was exactly what he needed now!
After bidding farewell to Li Yaqin, Su Mu decided to enter the sea again to search for the merfolk of the Spiritual Pearl lineage.
As for Li Yaqin and the others, they could continue to rest here.
..
“It wasn’t easy for us to come to Fu Sang Country. It will take another half a month to swim back. What a headache!”
After repeating it a few times in Su Mu’s mind, he roughly understood what the giant monster was trying to say.
When Su Mu arrived at the seaside, he couldn’t help but sigh.
Who knew that just as this thought appeared in his mind, the three beast statues in his arms suddenly lit up.
At the same time, a strange and hoarse voice sounded in his mind.
“Sacrifice…Flesh and blood…Teleportation…”
“Sacrifice…Flesh and blood…Teleportation…”
“Sacrifice…Flesh and blood…Teleportation…”
This intermittent voice came from the three beast statues.
It took the initiative to contact Su Mu!
