Chapter 906 - 909: Pirates
At this moment, the entire ocean trembled because of the giant sea beast.
Everyone looked ahead and saw an eight-legged octopus, its eight tentacles lashing out like lightning, stirring up heavy waves, billowing fiercely.
"This is the near sea king... the Octopus King." In the Three Realms, few ventured into the continent, precisely because of the Octopus King’s existence,
The Azure Empire, a five-star power, had to offer tribute to it every year, paying homage annually.
It could be said that this Octopus King, though a beast, enjoyed far more prestige than many humans.
"This..." The old storyteller was shocked and said, "This Octopus King likes live food and needs to eat one person every day. It seems today it hasn’t eaten yet, but we happened to encounter it."
"Originally, the Octopus King wouldn’t come out to harm people." The young storyteller shared the information she learned, "The Azure Empire sacrifices a creature to it every day, but recently, with the Empire’s defeat, they seem to have forgotten about this."
"Quick, hide."
Seeing a tentacle suddenly break through the void, everyone was startled, their scalps tingling! They quickly dodged aside, but the wooden ship was split in two under a single tentacle’s strike.
"Boom"
The tentacle swept again,
"Boom" went the sound,
Instantly, the wooden ship was completely destroyed, and Wu Tian and the others could only stand on the ship’s deck; such a simple strike had the imposing force of anger against heaven and earth.
"Fight."
Dao Feng and the others shouted, ready to attack,
"No, no."
The white-robed storyteller rushed and shouted, "It becomes more furious when hurt."
"Then what should we do?"
"Yes, what should we do?"
Dao Feng and the others looked at the white-robed storyteller, seeing his confident manner, seemingly having a solution,
They couldn’t help but ask.
"It’s very simple." The white-robed storyteller immediately said, "Just throw someone overboard."
Dao Feng and the others: "..."
They thought this guy would come up with a good idea, only to hear this,
Throw someone overboard?
Who to throw?
At this moment, a young fellow looked at the white-robed storyteller with admiration: "You’re really great, truly noble."
"Huh?"
The white-robed storyteller didn’t quite understand the young fellow’s meaning,
Great?
Can this be called great?
But why say he’s noble?
The young fellow quickly solved the white-robed storyteller’s confusion: "This uncle made such a suggestion, he likely intends to jump himself, to serve as a sacrifice for the octopus king. Such selfless spirit, isn’t it noble?"
The young fellow also winked at Dao Feng and the others.
Dao Feng and the others understood what the young fellow meant, and they also looked at the white-robed storyteller with admiration.
"Indeed noble."
"Yes, your willingness to be eaten by the octopus to ensure our safety, such spirit is rare in the world."
"Thank you."
"..."
The white-robed storyteller was stunned.
What he said didn’t mean that at all.
He wanted to speak, but Zhou Butong had already reached the plank where the white-robed storyteller stood, lifting him up, seeming ready to throw him into the sea: "Let me help you."
"No, don’t."
Facing the ruthless Octopus King, the white-robed storyteller shouted, completely scared, with a stream of urine soaking through his pants!
He was terrified, he didn’t want to die.
"Useless."
Zhou Butong disdainfully put the white-robed storyteller down; the Octopus King was starving and pounced at Wu Tian and the others, aiming to eat first regardless of whom!
Everyone watched the approaching Octopus King, their faces ashen, the terrifying eight legs waving, causing the sea to shake,
At that moment, cannonballs suddenly flew toward the Octopus King, one by one exploding on its body but achieving nothing, making the Octopus King even more enraged,
Now, the Octopus King’s eight legs all attacked, with the target being... the young storyteller.
The terrifying eight legs lashed out, the air shattered, whooshing chaotically, so close!
If caught by this tentacle, escape would be impossible, becoming the Octopus King’s food,
"No." The young storyteller was frightened,
The Octopus King’s tentacle was just an inch away from her.
"Beast!"
Wu Tian pointed, and Blood Glow shot forth.
Seeing that the Octopus King’s tentacle was about to grab the young storyteller, just a meter away,
But now, this meter seemed an insurmountable chasm!
The Octopus King’s terrifying eyes now filled with fear and disbelief, as its eight legs were simultaneously cut off by Blood Glow, dark blood spattering,
"Ugh..."
A pained sound escaped from the Octopus King’s mouth, the sea covered in dark blood,
Unfinished, Blood Glow struck again, the Octopus King powerless, unable even to react,
The Octopus King was slashed open from head to toe by Blood Glow,
The Octopus King, dead!
An inner core shot out and was caught by Wu Tian.
The Beast Clan, each had an inner core, containing the essence of their life.
Dao Feng and the others smiled, with the Sect Leader here, it seemed no problem couldn’t be solved.
But the three storytellers were utterly in disbelief, completely dumbfounded,
The Octopus King, close to the Martial Emperor Realm existence, was dealt with just like that?
"Impossible, how could this be?" The white-robed storyteller, eyes almost popping out,
He looked at Wu Tian as if he were seeing a Ghost God.
Never imagined such a person existed,
Not only could he tell stories,
But also possessed formidable martial prowess?
"If I told this story, I’d surely become one of the top storytellers."
Thinking this, the white-robed storyteller felt greed, but was helpless.
Wu Tian, unmatched in martial prowess, even the Octopus King got easily slain,
How could a small storyteller compete with Wu Tian?
Meanwhile, the old storyteller and the young storyteller, coming back from shock, approached Wu Tian and bowed.
"Thank you for saving our lives, we storytellers will remember this."
The white-robed storyteller, seeing this, gritted his teeth and reluctantly approached, "Thank you for saving our lives."
Wu Tian nodded slightly, but at this moment,
"Did you see the Octopus King’s inner core? Those cannonballs were fired by us, it seems the Octopus King died at our hands. Where is the inner core, please let us know."
With the sound of waves crashing, a steel-like ship sped over the sea!
Finally reaching Wu Tian and the others, it was a warship with a terrifying flag,
This meant it was a pirate ship!!!
Dao Feng and the others suddenly remembered. Earlier, several cannonballs were fired at the Octopus King but to no effect. These cannonballs, naturally, were the work of the pirates.
