Not Accepting

"The Bearded Pirates, the Fulong Group?"

Upon hearing Mu Qingshuang's words...

The Xia Kingdom warriors present instantly calmed down.

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

There is ongoing debate online about various rumors and claims surrounding the Bearded Pirate Group.

Some say it was orchestrated by Shi Yuehan, the former Principal of Tianhuang Martial Arts University, with the initial purpose of transferring school assets.

Some say that it was the Old Silver Coins of the Xia Country the Authorities that were behind the scenes.

We need to forge a second, darker weapon, besides the Evil Ghost Team.

But now.

When the truth finally came crashing down on them.

Everyone seemed somewhat bewildered.

Mu Qingshuang is Shi Yuehan's grandmother.

At the same time, he is also the highest-ranking official commander of the Xia Country the Authorities stationed in the Skyvault Desert.

The only one to the Saint Entry Fourth Realm, Level Six powerhouse in the Sequence.

These two identities overlap.

They also decided to merge the Fulong Base into the Bearded Pirate Group.

... Everything said online is correct.

Just then...

A very thin person.

An elderly man with gray hair stepped forward, looked at Mu Qingshuang, and angrily shouted, "Mu Qingshuang, what's wrong with you!"

"Let the Martial Artist of Fulong Base become Pirates?"

"Don't forget, those Pirates are carrying Wanted Notice from our Xia Country!!"

"Are you going to make an enemy of the Xia Country?!"

The words had barely left his mouth.

Several more people stepped forward.

"Indeed! We Martial Artists stand tall and proud, vowing never to become Pirates!"

Mu Qingshuang glanced at everyone present.

Finally, their gaze fell upon the old man with the Whitebeard.

Ling Hai.

The younger brother of Ling Feng, the former head of the Ling Family.

Saint Entry Third Realm, Level Five of the Sequence.

Just like Mu Qingshuang.

Seventy years ago, when the Fulong Base was first established, I came here.

She is the second most important person in the Xia Country's Fulong Base, after Mu Qingshuang.

Mu Qingshuang looked at Ling Hai.

Her fiery red lips curved slightly into a smile.

"Do as you please, no pressure."

"Those willing to join the Bearded Pirate Group Fulong Group, come and sign the Contract."

"Those who are unwilling can leave after signing Confidentiality Agreement."

The words had barely left his mouth.

The many Martial Artists present exchanged bewildered glances.

Ling Hai stepped forward and shouted sharply, "Mu Qingshuang!"

"The Fulong Base is a base of the Xia Country! Now, you're taking Xia Country base and joining the Bearded Pirate Group. Do you really intend to become an enemy of the Xia Country?!"

Ling Hai finished speaking.

The many Martial Artists around Ling Hai echoed his sentiments.

Mu Qingshuang ignored these people.

She looked at the many Xia Kingdom warriors present, "Those who are willing to join the Bearded Pirate Gang, come over and sign the contract!"

At this moment, a burly, bald Martial Artist stepped forward. "Lord Mu, I only have one question."

"Is Elder Xia Yuncang still alive?"

Upon hearing these words...

Everyone present held their breath.

He quietly looked at Mu Qingshuang.

Xia Yuncang.

One of the seventeen the Authorities Silver Mask Saint Entry.

He died in the Battle of Zhenlong Island.

Mu Qingshuang turned her head and looked at Jiang Fu and Shi Jiu on the other side, who were muttering to each other and seemed to be plotting something.

Shi Jiu looked up. "You mean White-Bearded Xia?"

"I'm fine, I can eat and sleep well."

Jiang Fu chimed in, "I'd eat three large Pork Knuckles in one meal."

On one occasion.

Xia Yuncang saw that Qing Ling ate pork Pork Knuckles every time he ate.

So I joined in and got a free meal too.

And then I became obsessed with braised Pork Knuckle.

Every now and then, she would bring a few fresh Pork Knuckles and ask Jiang Fu to help her cook them.

Everyone present heard Jiang Fu and Shi Jiu's words.

His body jolted.

Xia Yuncang...

It's Whitebeard!?

Pirate White-Bearded Xia, was the first bearded man to emerge from the Bearded Pirate Group.

Then came Blackbeard.

Other colorful, Flowery Beards appeared later.

It can be said that...

Whitebeard is the flag of the Bearded Pirate Group.

This banner actually belongs to Xia Yuncang, the Silver Mask Saint Entry of the Xia Country!

Mu Qingshuang coughed, "Did you hear everything?"

The burly man nodded. "In that case, I, Zhang Erhe, am willing to join the Bearded Pirate Group and become a member of the Fulong Group!"

"I'd love to!"

"Willing!"

In an instant.

There were nearly five hundred powerful figures from the Xia Country present.

More than half of the Martial Artists stepped forward.

He expressed his willingness to join the Bearded Pirate Group.

Xia Yuncang has Whitebeard.

This means that the Bearded Pirate Group are backed by the Xia Country the Authorities.

Becoming Bearded Pirates is not considered betraying the Xia Country.

The remaining few Martial Artists.

They looked at each other in bewilderment.

These Martial Artists were led by Ling Feng.

Except for a very small number.

Most of them are Martial Artists from the Eight Great Martial Arts Families.

Ling Hai sneered, "You believe what the Pirates say?"

The burly man Zhang Erhe, said in a deep, resonant voice, "I believe in Lord Mu."

Mu Qingshuang waved her hand, "Alright, besides the two hundred and fifty-six of you, is there anyone else willing to join the Bearded Pirate Group?"

Ling Hai sneered.

He spread his arms and took a small step back.

The numerous Martial Artists behind them also retreated.

Shi Jiu took out a Sequence Contract and said with a grin, "Then let's sign the Contract. This is Contract specially made by Sister Wen Shuhe for the Bearded Pirate Group."

Looking at that little girl with a head and face full of Little Redhead.

The many Martial Artists present were filled with questions.

Wen Shuhe.

One of the seventeen Silver Mask Saint Entry of the Xia Country, the Contract Creator.

... elder sister?!

But.

Everyone recognized him.

This Contract was indeed written by Wen Shuhe, the Silver Mask Saint Entry.

Then there's no problem.

Then.

The 256 Martial Artists no longer hesitated.

They first glanced at the Contract.

There are only two items above.

First, join the Bearded Pirate Group and officially become Bearded Pirates.

Second, among the Bearded Pirates, infighting is strictly prohibited.

Apart from that, there are no other terms.

Then.

These people completely let their guard down.

To imprint one's own mark on the Contract.

Mu Qingshuang looked around. "Are you sure no one else wants to join? We won't be waiting for you if you miss out."

The two hundred-plus Martial Artists, led by Ling Hai, stared at each other.

At the same time, they took a step back.

A cold smile played on Ling Hai's eyes.

"Are Wen Shuhe and Xia Yuncang both members of the Bearded Pirate Group?"

"The Xia Country the Authorities is indeed corrupt."

"It's time for Martial Arts families to take charge of the Xia Country."

Two hundred and fifty-six Martial Artists quickly signed the Contract.

Jiang Fu waved her hand.

Two hundred and fifty-six bottles of Abyss Potions.

Two hundred and fifty-six sets of Defensive Artifact.

Two hundred and fifty-six stacks of Invisibility Talisman.

It appeared before everyone, radiating an aura of immense power.

This moment.

Everyone stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with disbelief.

"What, what is that!?"

"Is the one in the jar... the one I'm thinking of?"

Shi Jiu waved his hand, looking completely nonchalant.

"This is a joining benefit for our Bearded Pirate Group."

"Abyss Potion, God Grade Defensive Artifact, God Grade Invisibility Talisman"

"One set for everyone, come and collect it."

Hearing Shi Jiu's words.

The 265 New Beards immediately cheered.

Everything else is irrelevant.

That jar, as tall as a person, was filled with Abyss Potions!

How can there be so many Abyss Potions!

They had never seen so many Abyss Potions in their entire lives!

Mu Qingshuang glanced at Ling Hai and the others.

He said calmly, "That's a jar created by the Space Sequence; it can hold at least a lake."

The words had barely left his mouth.

The cheers grew even louder.

Ling Hai's eye twitched violently.

Behind him.

A Martial Artist quickly said, "Lord Mu, I also want to join the Bearded Pirate Group!"

Mu Qingshuang glanced at him.

His tone remained indifferent. "No."
