Stifle Danger in the Cradle

"Jiao Yi, Jiao Er, take Gu Yi and the others to the island." At this moment, a flash of ruthlessness could not help but flicker in Su Yu's eyes.

Regarding this kind of uncontrollable potential threat, Su Yu would rather strike first than be killed by someone else later.

As for whether it was moral to kill humans from another world with whom he had no grudge or enmity, Su Yu did not care at all, because this place was no longer a civilized society; the only principle that applied here was that the strong remain strong and the weak remain weak, and weakness itself was an original sin.

"After Gu Yi gets on the island, kill the target at the fastest speed possible, understand?" Glancing at Gu Yi on Jiao Yi's back, Su Yu whispered his instructions.

In response, the soul fire within Gu Yi's skull flickered slightly, and then it nodded its skeletal head mechanically to show it understood.

Soon, the four Broadsword Skeletons, including Gu Yi, were delivered by Jiao Yi and Jiao Er to the small island where Liu Biao was located.

This movement naturally could not be hidden from Liu Biao on the island; after all, this tiny, pathetic island was so small that it was impossible not to attract his attention.

"Damn, what kind of monsters are these?" Aided by the moonlight in the sky, upon seeing the skeletons with white flames flickering in their skulls appearing on the island, Liu Biao felt a bone-chilling cold sweep directly over his scalp.

In response, Gu Yi grabbed the Hundred-Refined Goose-Quill Saber that Su Yu had bestowed upon it and attacked Liu Biao.

As for the other three Broadsword Skeletons, they were a step slower.

Seeing this, Liu Biao felt his whole body turn cold, but at the final moment, the ruthlessness deep within his body finally overcame the fear in his mind.

Facing the blade about to strike his body, Liu Biao backhanded his Nine-Ring Broadsword to block it.

"Clang!" Following a loud clang, the Hundred-Refined Goose-Quill Saber in Gu Yi's hand collided directly with the Nine-Ring Broadsword in Liu Biao's hand.

Before Liu Biao could rejoice at having blocked the opponent's strike, a scene that horrified him occurred: the Nine-Ring Broadsword in his hand had actually snapped. That's right, the spot where it had clashed with the opponent's weapon had broken clean in two.

It was precisely this momentary distraction of Liu Biao's that led to him meeting his end on the spot.

Because Gu Yi at this moment was not affected in the slightest; upon seeing the opponent stunned after blocking its first strike, Gu Yi immediately unleashed a strike from the Luanpifeng Saber Technique at lightning speed, decapitating Liu Biao.

After killing the target, Gu Yi reached out and picked up the opponent's head, placing it in front of its own skull, and then streaks of white gas could be seen continuously flowing from Liu Biao's head into the soul fire within Gu Yi's skull.

Back on Su Yu's side, after discovering in the water that the target had been killed by Gu Yi, he used the momentum to leap onto the island.

"It's absorbing soul power." Just as he stepped onto the island, Su Yu witnessed Gu Yi's actions.

Thinking of this, Su Yu directly scanned Gu Yi's current attributes.

[Undead Race · Broadsword Skeleton]

Strength: 8

Constitution: 7

Spirit: 5

Weapon: Hundred-Refined Goose-Quill Saber.

Skill: Luanpifeng Saber Technique.

Comprehensive combat power evaluation: Ordinary Tier 8 - Black Iron Tier 0.

After Gu Yi stopped feeding, Su Yu discovered that all of Gu Yi's attributes had increased by one point, and its basic combat power had even risen by one tier. Even its bones seemed to have become more lustrous than before.

[Ding, you have successfully slain the island master of this small island. The island will now become an ownerless island. Do you choose to generate an Island Heart?]

"Generate."

Just as Su Yu finished checking Gu Yi's attributes, another notification sounded in his ears, and Su Yu did not hesitate at all.

Soon after Su Yu chose to generate the Island Heart, he saw rays of yellow light continuously condensing at the center of the island not far in front of him. Finally, a pale yellow, crystal-like Island Heart appeared.

Seeing this, Su Yu did not rush forward to take the Island Heart. Instead, he first gave an order to Gu Yi at his side, telling them to go to Jiao Yi and Jiao Er first.

When Gu Yi and the other Broadsword Skeletons had all entered the water and returned to Jiao Yi's back, Su Yu reached out and picked up the Island Heart, which had by then fallen to the ground.

After picking up the item, Su Yu rushed to the edge of the island at top speed and dove directly into the water.

When Su Yu and his group swam back to their own island, the small, uninhabited island that had been perfectly fine just moments ago shattered and sank into the sea.

[Ding, do you wish to use the Level 1 Island Heart to merge it into the island you possess?]

"Yes."

After returning to the island, Su Yu used the item immediately.

Consequently, in the next second, the area of Su Yu's island increased to 506㎡, which roughly translates to about 22.5 meters by 22.5 meters.

"Phew." After resolving a potential security threat, Su Yu let out a long sigh of relief.

"Stay vigilant tonight. If there are any unusual movements, report them immediately," Su Yu said in a deep voice, glancing at Jiao Yi and Jiao Er in the water, as well as the four Goblins standing at the ready on the shore.

"Understood, Master." At this, Jiao Yi, Jiao Er, and the four Goblins nearly broke their own chest bones while saluting.

After giving these instructions, Su Yu walked quickly toward the villa. Once he had changed his clothes, he lay back on his Simmons mattress, feeling somewhat restless.

With his thoughts racing, Su Yu couldn't help but open the Communication Channel again.

"It's over, help me, big shots! A small island has appeared not far from my own!"

"Damn, damn, I see someone floating toward me on the water."

"Brother above, are you okay? If you're still alive, give us a sign."

"Brothers, I'm still alive, but I've become a prisoner. Damn it, a middle-aged nun slapped me to the ground the moment she arrived and asked me where this place is."

"Brother, could you have run into Miejue Shitai, or perhaps Nanhai Shenni?"

"You've been watching too many TV dramas, haven't you? How could there be such a coincidence?"

"To think there are so many people who happened to have their islands spawn right next to those from low-martial worlds, and some even encountered guys capable of walking on water. Could that guy really be so unlucky as to run into a top-tier expert from one of those low-martial worlds?"

After scrolling through the chat logs in the Communication Channel, Su Yu began to speculate in his heart.

Furthermore, Su Yu discovered that the so-called seven-day survival protection period seemed somewhat nominal. When he dispatched Gu Yi to kill Liu Biao, he did not receive any notification stating that he had to wait until the newcomer period ended before he could take action.

"Could this be a hidden rule, encouraging Island Lords to slaughter each other and plunder the Island Heart?" At this moment, a thought couldn't help but pop into Su Yu's mind.
