Peerless War God

If this was in the past, he would have already killed this slave trader with a slap. But now that he was of some use, he couldn't make a move anymore.    

"Senior, you, why are you doing this, sigh!"    

The middle-aged cultivator accompanied Chen Xiao as he stood on the bow of the ship, looking at the sea in the distance as he complained.    

"Humph!"    

Chen Xiao snorted and didn't explain any further. After all, everyone's goal was different.    

Some people cultivated for pleasure, while others cultivated to trample on others.    

Furthermore, the reason why he continued to cultivate and desperately became stronger was so that he could do whatever he wanted.    

He would not be restricted by others, much less controlled by other existences.    

This was his Dao heart. Along the way, he would only grow more and more determined.    

Other than that, there was actually another reason. Amongst the group of captured mermaids, he saw a familiar face.    

Mermaid maid, Ah Xiu.    

Ah Xiu, the maid he had run into when he possessed Ah Fu, was a member of the Little Fishmen Tribe.    

He still had a little reflection.    

Back then, he had indirectly caused the destruction of the Little Fishmen Tribe.    

In fact, it even led to a great battle between the Sea Goddess Hall and the Dragon God Palace, causing one to die and one to be injured.    

He did not have any strange thoughts towards Ah Xiu, the mermaid maid, but he simply felt that he should do something.    

Especially since he happened to run into her. If he didn't do something, his heart would always feel empty.    

Thus, Ah Xiu, the mermaid maid maid, along with the other caught female mermaids were released.    

As for what happened after the destruction of the Little Fishmen Horde and why Xiu was caught in this place, he did not ask.    

He had done enough, and the karma between the two had been completely fulfilled.    

At this moment, thousands of miles east of the ship,    

Ah Xiu, the pathetic and frail beauty, lifted her head out of the water and looked at the ship before her. She then looked at the few figures standing on top of the ship.    

"Xiu, what are you looking at? Hurry up and run. If you don't, something might happen."    

"Oh, okay." Ah Xiu replied.    

She didn't know why, but in that instant, she felt a sense of déjà vu.    

Very quickly, she forgot about all of this and dived back into the sea, desperately trying to escape.    

Chen Xiao stood on the side of the boat and didn't move. He waited until the mermaids escaped the range of his telepathic thoughts before retracting his sight.    

He did not seek perfection, but he sought to be worthy of it.    

At this moment, other than Chen Xiao and the middle-aged cultivator, there was also the golden-haired beauty on the ship who was hit by the cold wind.    

The restrictions on her body had been removed, but she didn't dare to move anywhere without Chen Xiao's permission.    

A pair of eyes as bright and beautiful as sapphires were fluttering as they constantly observed and probed the surroundings.    

Deep anxiety, as well as fear and trepidation could be seen in her eyes.    

It wasn't that she didn't want to escape, but that she didn't dare.    

Firstly, with Chen Xiao and the middle-aged cultivator, she was not a match for them.    

Moreover, the sea was already within the range of the human's power. Other than Chen Xiao, there were many hidden gazes around. They were constantly spying on the ship.    

Unlike Chen Xiao, these prying gazes all harboured evil intentions.    

This was the reason why he stood on the deck of the boat and waited quietly, allowing Ah Xiu, the mermaid maid, and the other slaves to escape successfully.    

Those who escaped previously were just common goods. Even if the ones who spied on them were displeased, they wouldn't pay much attention to them.    

But obviously, that didn't include the blonde mermaid.    

The allure she had for an alchemist was simply too great. There were many cultivators who wanted her.    

Instead, she would feel safer by Chen Xiao's side.    

For some reason, she had a strong intuition that Chen Xiao was different from the other cultivators who tried to capture her and wanted to harm her.    

"Looks like there are quite a few rats."    

Chen Xiao said coldly as he looked at the middle-aged cultivator with his hands behind his back.    

"Eh ~"    

The middle-aged cultivator was sweating and didn't dare to say anything.    

"You must have notified all the people that rushed here beforehand. Quite a few of them have come." Chen Xiao looked up and sneered.    

In the sky, some of them chose to continue to spy on Chen Xiao from the shadows. However, some of the more arrogant forces directly revealed their heads and looked down from above as they coldly watched Chen Xiao's every move.    

He did not try to conceal it in the slightest, and it revealed a deep sense of enmity.    

"No, no, no." The middle-aged cultivator shook his head with all his might as he denied everything.    

However, under Chen Xiao's questioning gaze, he quickly changed his mind.    

He nodded his head with difficulty and said, "Yes, I let out the news in advance that I caught a top quality product and even revealed the matter of the Upper Sky blood. However, I did not reveal the whereabouts of this ship at all as this is related to my personal life."    

This time, Chen Xiao believed him.    

No one would joke around with their own life. This middle-aged cultivator was a poison cultivator and a coward that feared death. If he could survive, he definitely wouldn't want to die.    

It was a common thing for slave traders to spread the news and raise the price in advance.    

After all, none of those who dared to do such a thing were people who were easy to deal with. They were all secretly causing trouble.    

Thinking about this, Chen Xiao understood. It was clear that the middle-aged cultivator's whereabouts had been leaked out, allowing some hidden forces to find him here.    

And only his two disciples, a man and a woman, were able to reveal the whereabouts of the middle-aged cultivator.    

"Looks like you've really taken in two good disciples. Let's not talk about escaping before the battle, but now, you've even betrayed your master. Interesting." Chen Xiao said with a sneer.    

He really wanted to laugh.    

The middle-aged cultivator let out a bitter laugh and said, "These two little bastards really have guts. Then what do we do now?"    

Chen Xiao's gaze was always on Ye Zichen, wanting to see if what Ye Zichen said was true.    

He didn't know if he had anticipated or if he had suddenly been caught off guard by the encirclement.    

If he had expected this to happen, then the middle-aged cultivator seemed to have a purpose in trying to rope him in.    

He wanted to drag him into the water. Sure enough, none of those who could cultivate to such a level were easy to deal with.    

Under Chen Xiao's cold gaze, the middle-aged cultivator avoided his gaze.    

Chen Xiao sighed in his heart. He really guessed it right. He was really warm-hearted and stepped into this trap on his own accord.    

Forget it, since he had already come this far, he wanted to see what kind of person would specially target this golden-haired beauty.
