Heading to Red Pearl Island
Upon arriving at the blood-stained area, Bibi Dong covered her mouth, and even Ah Yin and Xiao Wu were somewhat frightened.
"Uncle-Master, are they also Soul Beast?" Bibi Dong tugged at Qian Xunling's pants and then pointed to the mermaids in the carriage.
Seeing the two little girls outside looking so radiant, the mermaids inside the cage lowered their heads in shame. Qian Xunling explained, "They are, of course, Soul Beast. Don't be fooled by their appearance; they don't have any human blood at all."
"But Little Spider thinks they feel scared just like us." Bibi Dong looked at Qian Xunling, her eyes filled with pity for them.
Qian Xunling ignored her emotions and said, "Of course, they are also highly intelligent beings."
"Uncle-Master, can I share some food with them? They look very hungry and thirsty," Bibi Dong asked. Qian Xunling chuckled, "Suit yourself, but if you run out of food halfway through, I won't be responsible."
"Alright." Bibi Dong was a little disappointed, but when she heard that her martial uncle had agreed to let her give them food, she smiled, ran to the edge of the cage, took out her storage bag, placed some food on the edge of the iron bars, then put in a pot of water, and said, "Here you go, eat."
After saying that, she went to the other carriages and put down food and water there as well.
The mermaids were initially terrified, but when they discovered that Xiao Wu was actually a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, they were completely dumbfounded.
In mainland China, would even Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast be captured by humans?
That's terrifying.
Ah Yin felt great pity for them and comforted them, telling them not to be nervous.
Qian Xunling suddenly said, "Ah Yin, use your Blue Silver Grass to communicate with these horses, let's set off."
"Me? Me?" Ah Yin asked in surprise.
There are three carriages here; how can she possibly control them all by herself?
Chen Jianjun said, "Xin'er, let's each drive one."
Chen Xin nodded. "Yes, Father."
Qian Xunling chuckled and sat down on a horse. Little Spider ran over and called out, "Uncle-Master, Uncle-Master!"
Qian Xunling rolled her eyes at her, but still helped her up. Then, Ah Yin asked, "Where's Xiao Wu?"
"Hurry up and get to Vast Sea City, I'll hide it then." Qian Xunling kicked the horse in the belly, and the horse, feeling the pain, neighed and immediately ran off.
Chen Jianjun and Chen Xin urged their carriage to follow.
A day has passed.
They finally arrived outside Vast Sea City. Qian Xunling put Xiao Wu into her Wishful Hundred Treasure Purse, and the group began to enter the city.
Chen Jianjun asked, "Young Master Xunling, shall we go find that pirate Evil Soul Master named Rousi now?"
Qian Xunling shook her head and chuckled, "No, let's rest for the night and deal with them tomorrow."
Looking at the drowsy Bibi Dong, Chen Jianjun smiled and replied, "I understand, but I still have a question. Young Master Xunling, what are your plans for those mermaids? You can't possibly bring them all to Sea God Island, can you?"
"What a coincidence, that's exactly what I was thinking—taking them all to Sea God Island," Qian Xunling replied. Chen Jianjun looked puzzled, but Qian Xunling waved her hand and said, "You don't need to think about that. If you can't figure it out, just do as I say."
Chen Jianjun really didn't understand why he had to bring so many weak Soul Beast along, so he simply stopped thinking about it and followed Qian Xunling's footsteps.
Soon, seeing that the group was dressed in fine clothes and had three carriages covered with black cloth, the persuader on the road went directly to Qian Xunling and quickly introduced them to a mansion. So Qian Xunling and the others rented a mansion in Vast Sea City.
As the persuader was leaving, he whispered to Qian Xunling, "Young Master, the auction house in Vast Sea City will open in a couple of days. There are many good things there; whatever you want, they can provide it."
"Okay, I understand." Qian Xunling smiled, tossed a Gold Soul Coin into her hand, and then closed the door.
Lobbyist: "..."
Bibi Dong rubbed her eyes and said, "Uncle-Master, I'm so sleepy, can I go to sleep first?"
"Who's stopping you from sleeping? Go find a room and sleep," Qian Xunling replied, but Bibi Dong whispered, "But if you sleep with me, Shishu, Little Spider won't be able to sleep."
"How old are you? Still needing someone to accompany you?" Qian Xunling scolded, continuing, "You're almost a level 20 Soul Grandmaster, you should have some of the courage of Soul Grandmaster, understand?"
"But I'm only six years old," Bibi Dong, her head bowed.
Qian Xunling ignored her and looked at Ah Yin, saying, "Go and release those mermaids. Don't let them escape. If even one escapes, I'll hold you responsible."
Then Qian Xunling released Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu immediately ran behind Ah Yin. Qian Xunling continued, "And you, you're not allowed to leave this mansion either, or I'll turn you into braised rabbit heads."
"No, Uncle-Master!" Bibi Dong was startled by these words. Qian Xunling chuckled, "Little Spider, if you don't keep a close eye on Xiao Wu, I'll send you back to the Spirit Hall, and you can forget about following me again."
"Little Spider, please keep a close eye on Xiao Wu." Bibi Dong became anxious, but instead of looking at Xiao Wu, she followed Qian Xunling's steps. Qian Xunling had no choice but to let her follow him, but scolded, "You can only sleep on the floor!"
"I understand." Bibi Dong, somewhat disappointed.
Chen Jianjun and Chen Xin smiled at each other and truly took on the responsibility of guarding the house.
A day has passed.
Qian Xunling and Chen Jianjun arrived at the edge of the Vast Sea City border.
Then I saw a ship that stood out from the other boats at the port, its overall color was red and black, and its size was two or three times larger.
Not only that, other ships didn't dare to get close to that ship, and even passersby didn't dare to look too closely. But just then, everyone saw an old man with white hair and a handsome young man striding towards the pirate ship.
The pirates on guard on the ship were somewhat puzzled when they saw the two, but they all guessed that the two were from wealthy families, after all, their demeanor and clothes were like those of nobles.
"Who are you?" the wary crew member shouted, his mouth crooked.
Qian Xunling didn't even glance at them and continued walking.
"How dare you ignore us! Stop right now, or don't blame us for being impolite," another crew member warned.
However, at this moment, Chen Jianjun extended his sword finger, manipulated a wisp of Soul Power, and swung it with sword energy.
The two pirates who were speaking were then killed by having their throats pierced.
"What happened?!" The others on the ship exclaimed in surprise when they saw someone dead, and then rushed towards the location of the two pirates, but they were killed by sword energy before they could even see them.
Qian Xunling strolled leisurely to the ship's deck, looking at the panicked pirates with amusement, and chuckled, "Where's your leader? Let him come out."
"Who are you? Don't you know we are from the Red Pearl Pirate Crew? How dare you kill our people!" someone shouted angrily, but was beheaded by Chen Jianjun's sword energy less than two seconds later.
Qian Xunling picked at her ear, looked at Chen Jianjun, and said, "Old man, now you know why I need you guys to be my henchmen, right? It's because there are always idiots mocking me, and then I have to trouble myself to take action. It's really speechless."
Chen Jianjun chuckled, but he had to admit, it was indeed quite noisy.
Qian Xunling turned her gaze to the remaining pirates, who were too frightened to speak, and asked again, "Where is your leader?"
"Rousi has gone off to play with women and hasn't returned yet," one of the pirates replied.
"Damn it! I came all this way to find him, and he's living the high life! It's infuriating! If I run into him, I'll tear him to pieces!" Qian Xunling said with a hint of anger, then looked at the pirates and said, "Kill them all."
Chen Jianjun nodded without any hesitation, unleashing his sword energy without even using his Soul Ring.
Once the ship was empty, Qian Xunling found a chair and sat down. He said to Qian Xunling, "Old man, go back and bring them over. We'll take this ship to Red Pearl Island."
"But it seems like none of us know how to sail a boat," Chen Jianjun said.
Qian Xunling said, "It's simple, just find a few."
