Chapter 749: Chapter 749
"All right! Stop fighting among ourselves! Since it is suspicious, let’s go and take a look. Wu Tian, no matter if there are humans or ghosts, we must draw them out. If they are ghosts, let them go immediately. If they are experts, then we must try to stop them."
"Yes!" Wu Tian agreed. He looked at Old Ghost proudly and immediately went to arrange it.
Old Ghost curled his lips and ignored him.
Lan Ruobing only smiled as she watched the two of them argue.
"Old Ghost, go and look after Wu Tian, lest something happens to him!"
"Alright! Little bastard, I’ll still have to babysit you!"
As he spoke, he left the control room and led his men to catch up with Wu Tian.
On Wu Tian’s side, he didn’t dare to mobilize too much power at once. He was Lan Ruobing’s right-hand man. Although he was confident, he didn’t dare to be careless.
He only dispatched hundreds of flying vessels and surrounded the Ghostic Warship.
In this way, even if he blundered, they wouldn’t suffer too great of a loss. In order to fight for a spot in this Triangle Region, it all depended on the number of high-end combat power and the number of warships.
These small flying vessels did not matter too much.
Old Ghost mobilized a first-stage warship, bringing along dozens of Yin-yang Realm experts.
At this moment, Ye Liuyun and the others’ Divine Sense had already discovered the flying vessels that were surrounding them.
His Golden Phantom Eyes even saw the first-stage warship that was going to provide reinforcements in the distance.
After learning about the situation, Captain One-eyed said to him directly, "Judging from the logo on the flying vessel, it’s Lan Ruobing’s subordinates. It seems that they are determined to force us to show ourselves! Do you have any countermeasures?"
"We can’t beat them, nor can we flee. What else can we do? Surrender. Let’s wait and see!"
Ye Liuyun said frankly.
"That’s all we can do!" Captain One-eyed’s thoughts were the same as Ye Liuyun’s.
The bandits had rules. They can’t kill them if they surrender. freeweɓnøvel.com
This was especially true for large-scale bandit groups, who also cared about their reputation. Normally, their discipline was extremely strict, and they couldn’t kill at will.
It was precisely because of their credibility that many merchant ships were willing to take this route. If they were willing to pay the fees, they would pass without any difficulties.
The robbers also did not need to worry. They didn’t need to fight. This meant that they could keep the casualties to a minimum and a secure income.
This was especially true for Lan Ruobing’s band of robbers, whose reputation was well known.
As soon as the two of them were done discussing it, the warship began to slow down immediately.
When Wu Tian saw that the warship had slowed down, he was a little worried.
He initially thought that the Ghostic Warship would wipe out any obstacle in their way.
When the ship slowed down, he was worried that there were ghosts coming to destroy them.
Therefore, he was not sure who was inside!
Old Ghost behind him also became nervous. He immediately sailed the warship closer, ready to assist at any time. At least, he had to save Wu Tian.
Although they often argue, they have been partners for many years. They had gone through thick and thin. The bond between them was still very close.
The Ghostic Warship slowly came to a stop in front of a row of flying vessels.
"Who’s inside? Can you come out?"
Wu Tian’s Divine Sense was also blocked by the Ghostic Warship’s Formation, thus he could only shout it out directly.
Captain One-eyed said to Ye Liuyun, "I’m going out to pay the fee. Don’t go out for the time being."
"I’ll go with you in case something unexpected happens!"
Ye Liuyun was worried that something unexpected might happen. Captain One-eyed was their captain, so he couldn’t let anything happen to him.
"Alright then. Everyone else, prepare yourselves!" Captain One-eyed made the necessary arrangements before walking out of the warship with Ye Liuyun.
"I don’t know what will come out." freewebnovel.cσ๓
After Wu Tian finished shouting, he had been waiting anxiously in the same place.
It was not until he saw the two human experts, one old and one young, that he was completely relieved.
"I was scared to death. I thought there would be ghosts coming out! What’s wrong with them? Are you disguised as ghosts?"
Wu Tian became bold when he directly asked Ye Liuyun and Captain One-eyed.
Captain One-eyed cupped his fists and said to Wu Tian, "I am the captain of this ship. You can call me Captain One-eyed. We also got this Ghostic Warship by chance."
He didn’t tell them much about the origin of the Ghostic Warship. Instead, he said directly, "I’ve heard about Miss Lan’s righteousness for a long time. Therefore, we don’t want any misunderstanding between us. We want to pay the fees and let us pass."
Wu Tian saw that Captain One-eyed sounded like he had been sailing for a long time, hence he also nodded and said to Captain One-eyed, "It’s good that you know the rules. We don’t have to worry. My name is Wu Tian, and I’m Miss Lan’s assistant. But..."
He paused for a moment before continuing, "However, it isn’t a good time for you to be in a hurry. The fight for the Triangle Region is about to commence. Miss Lan needs some new forces. Your warships aren’t bad, at the very least, it can help us strengthen our might in the battle..."
Upon hearing this, Captain One-eyed immediately said, "Mr. Wu Tian, but we still have something to do and we have places to go..."
Wu Tian waved his hand and interrupted Captain One-eyed. "It won’t take you too much time. If you help us with this favor. We’ll show you a shortcut to save you three months of traveling. What do you think?"
Then he added, "When the time comes, you won’t have to pay us and we will even pay you for your efforts. Think about it."
Logically speaking, it was already very polite for a robber to be so reasonable.
Captain One-eyed looked helplessly at Ye Liuyun. If they refuse, then the robbers will use force against them.
"When will the battle begin? When can we leave?"
Ye Liuyun was most concerned about the matter of time. They couldn’t be caught by the Ghostic Hell’s experts.
"Three days from now, three to five days at most and you can leave." Wu Tian did not lie to him. He was telling the truth.
Ye Liuyun heard his statement and felt that it was still acceptable.
This Triangle Region was a bit chaotic. If there wasn’t someone guiding them, they definitely wouldn’t have been able to find a path that could save them three months of time.
He thought it was worthwhile to spend a little time in exchange for three months’ journey.
"Do you need us to fight?" Ye Liuyun asked again.
"Fight?" Wu Tian chuckled. "How much do you think a warrior at the Fifth Level Yin-yang Realm can do?"
Some of the robbers around Wu Tian also giggled.
The Fifth Level Yin-yang Realm was not considered high in their bandit group. It was only considered moderate.
Wu Tian was already at the Eighth Level Yin-yang Realm. Beside him, there were also several robbers of the Sixth Level Yin-yang Realm.
They were only interested in the Ghostic Warship. As for Ye Liuyun’s realm, they did not think much of it.
