470 – Assassination of Lei Jiangjiao
Lei Jiangjiao clasped the beautiful maid’s face, a brutal gleam in his eyes, and he revealed a cruel smile, saying: “I said that I don’t want to be disturbed if there’s nothing urgent! If it isn’t urgent, then when I’m done with you, you’ll be reduced to a plaything of this ship’s men!”
Just when Lei Jiangjiao was about to ravage the several gorgeous women, he was disturbed by this maid. Anger and killing intent surged in his heart.
The beautiful maid’s face turned ashen and her eyes shimmered with dread, and she responded respectfully: “Master, the Xiling Sea Wolf King is here to see you!”
“The Xiling Sea Wolf King? Has this good-for-nothing been defeated by Yang Feng?” Lei Jiangjiao frowned, and then muttered: “Fine, let him come see me! After all, he is also a Moonlight Warlock.”
The beautiful maid quickly uttered: “Master, the Xiling Sea Wolf King wants to see you on the deck. He said, he said that if it’s not on the deck, then let it be. He’s going to the Sky Blue Sea Pavilion to seek shelter and spill the beans about everything!”
Lei Jiangjiao’s thoughts revolved, and he said with a cold smile: “The deck? He is really careful!”
On the gale-class merchant ship, there stood five six-story-tall Warlock towers. Once a hostile Moonlight Warlock entered a Warlock tower, they may get suppressed at a moment’s notice. Only when they were close friends would a Warlock enter another Warlock’s Warlock tower.
Although Lei Jiangjiao was only a junior Moonlight Warlock, but inside this six-story-tall Warlock tower, he was certain that he could suppress an advanced Moonlight Warlock.
“Fine! I’ll go meet him!” Lei Jiangjiao smiled faintly, then magic light shrouded him, and he disappeared.
On the deck of the gale-class merchant ship, a cyan light emerged, and Lei Jiangjiao stepped out, looked at the Xiling Sea Wolf King leaning on the edge of the deck with a strange light in his eyes, and said with a light smile: “Xiling Sea Wolf King, it seems like you’ve been seriously injured.”
The Xiling Sea Wolf King was seriously injured by the mechanical ancient devil’s Devil’s Eye, and had just under 30% of his strength left.
When Lei Jiangjiao saw how weak the Xiling Sea Wolf King was, killing intent welled up inside him.
Inside their sea of knowledge, Moonlight Warlock rank experts have condensed a moonlight core, which contained their soul force, various secret method and spell models, and a part of Moonlight Warlock rank power.
Unlike a godhead, although a moonlight core couldn’t provide you with countless bodies of knowledge and enable you to become a god, but it also possessed great value. It could be used to forge a golem or a secret treasure. Some peerless experts who practiced special secret methods could even extract some secret methods from inside the moonlight cores.
The moonlight cores were also valued treasures in the various planes.
“Lei Jiangjiao, do you want to kill me? Although I currently have less than 30% of my strength left, but if I want to escape here, then even you can’t stop me! Ptooey!!” The Xiling Sea Wolf King was very keen to catch the faint killing intent released by Lei Jiangjiao, and he spat out a fruit kernel shooting towards a dark corner of the gale-class merchant ship and smiled coldly.
Aboard the gale-class merchant ship, everyone’s gazes were focused on the Moonlight Warlock the Xiling Sea Wolf King. After scanning the fruit kernel with a detection spells and finding nothing strange, no one paid it anymore attention.
The fruit kernel hit an iron wall of the gale-class merchant ship and ricocheted, then a wind swept it and tossed it into the sea.
Cleaning was one of the spell solidified on the gale-class merchant ship. With it, things that have been identified as trash were automatically cleaned.
No one noticed that a shadow entered the gale-class merchant ship without any sound or sign and without releasing any fluctuations, and then slowly moved along the shadows.
Lei Jiangjiao restrained the killing intent in his eyes, then gave a straightforward smile and said: “Xiling Sea Wolf King, there seems to be a misunderstanding. How could I do that kind of a thing? We have a common enemy, namely Yang Feng. Why don’t you join the Sea Dragon Immortal Pavilion? With your strength, once you join the Sea Dragon Immortal Pavilion, you’ll certainly be enshrined in the Sea Dragon Immortal Pavilion, and gain countless secret methods and resources! You might even promote to a Glorious Dawn Warlock in the future!”
The Xiling Sea Wolf King was a famous powerhouse in the Wei Sea. In the deep sea, even Glorious Dawn Warlocks can’t deal with him. If such a powerhouse joined the Sea Dragon Immortal Pavilion, then the pavilion’s strength could increase by a large margin.
The Xiling Sea Wolf King responded coldly: “I’m used to being free! I came here to claim the reward of 100 million magic crystals. Give me the magic crystal and I’ll leave.”
Lei Jiangjiao’s eyebrows wrinkled and his eyes glittered, and he stared at the Xiling Sea Wolf King with an enigmatic look in his eyes.
The Xiling Sea Wolf King flicked his wrist, and a blue bead appeared in his hand: “Lei Jiangjiao, I am not your opponent right now, but I have three secret treasures that can help me escape from you. The first secret treasure is this Blue Light Sea Bead. With it, I can dive into the sea within one breath. Even you can’t stop me.”
Lei Jiangjiao took a closer look and saw a blue water thread extend from the Blue Light Sea Bead and enter the sea. With a thought, the Xiling Sea Wolf King could escape from the gale-class merchant ship with the help of the bead.
Lei Jiangjiao retracted his killing intent and smiled lightly, saying: “100 million magic crystals was the reward for after you destroyed the Sky Blue Sea Pavilion’s fleet. To ask for the 100 million magic crystals without harming their fleet, isn’t that inappropriate? How about this, I’ll give you 10 million magic crystals and we’ll be quits?”
The Xiling Sea Wolf King was a Moonlight Warlock rank expert, and he could transform into an ichthyosaur wolf after all. In the sea, his battle prowess was formidable. Without being sure that he could kill the other party, Lei Jiangjiao wouldn’t easily offend such a Moonlight Warlock.
The Xiling Sea Wolf King frowned, his countenance changed several times, he muttered under his breath for a while, and then uttered with a fierce expression: “30 million magic crystals! Because of you, I lost all my warships! God knows how long it’ll take me to recover my losses! If you don’t give me 30 million magic crystals, then I’m leaving!”
Lei Jiangjiao naturally understood what the Xiling Sea Wolf King was implying. If he left now, then a few years down the line, the Sea Dragon Immortal Pavilion would gain a deadly Moonlight Warlock rank enemy.
If the Sea Dragon Immortal Pavilion was stronger, it still wouldn’t feel at ease with the Xiling Sea Wolf King as its enemy in the Wei Sea.
His thoughts revolved, and Lei Jiangjiao said promptly: “Okay! 30 million magic crystals it is!”
The Xiling Sea Wolf King revealed a smile and uttered: “Forthright. I like to cooperate with people like you.”
Lei Jiangjiao secretly loosened a sigh, then took out a storage ring and tossed it towards the Xiling Sea Wolf King.
At that moment, a shadow suddenly emerged behind Lei Jiangjiao, and a dagger enveloped in shadows stabbed at his abdomen.
A premonition of death welled up in his mind. Without demure, Lei Jiangjiao willed, and a Teleportation Bead concealed on his person shattered, and a spatial fluctuation enveloped him in an instant.
The Teleportation Bead was a trigger defensive secret treasure that Lei Jiangjiao has commissioned an Alchemist to forge for 30 million magic crystals. With a thought, it could teleport him back to the six-story-tall Warlock tower. Even if a Moonlight Warlock rank expert hurriedly conjured a spatial interference spell, they still wouldn’t be able to interrupt the Teleportation Bead’s spatial force.
Even Yang Feng proficient in the law of space wouldn’t be able to interrupt the Teleportation Bead’s spatial force. The god armament Shadow Dagger, however, unleashed a strange fluctuation and dissipated the Teleportation Bead’s spatial force.
Lei Jiangjiao felt a chill in his heart, and he lit up with one magic light after another.
The Shadow Dagger broke through various teleportation spells, pierced through magic shields, and stabbed Lei Jiangjiao in the abdomen, and twelve curses instantly erupted and covered his whole body.
At this time, the shadow revealed itself. It was Yang Feng.
After he killed the Shadow Prince Mecca, Yang Feng gained the shadow godhead. His clone was the Ruler of Shadows proficient in the law of shadows. Yang Feng’s true body has also easily comprehended the law of shadows. As an assassin, he was second only to the the Shadow Prince Mecca, and so he was able to seriously injure Lei Jiangjiao with a single strike.
After he injured Lei Jiangjiao, Yang Feng pressed the dimensional badge on his chest, and the mechanical ancient devil flew out with a flash of light.
When the ancient mechanical devil appeared, it grinned fiercely and erupted with advanced Moonlight Warlock rank aura in a flash. It blurred into motion and flitted towards the dozen or so Starry Sky Warlocks brought by Lei Jiangjiao.
A streak of black light flickered, and six of the dozen or so Starry Sky Warlocks lost their heads and collapsed on the ground.
The mechanical ancient devil radiated demonic light, then surged with spatial force, instantly appeared in front of the six-story-tall Warlock tower in which Lei Jiangjiao lived, and smashed the barrier around it with a tyrannical punch, and then rushed inside.
If the Warlock tower was guarded by Lei Jiangjiao, then in would be nearly invulnerable. By then, if the advanced Moonlight Warlock rank mechanical ancient devil entered the Warlock tower, it would die without the shadow of a doubt. But without Lei Jiangjiao standing guard, the five Warlock towers were instead the weakest link of the gale-class merchant ship.
