God of Dragon - Chapter 77

There were 12 full-time guards on the ship in order to ensure the safety of the guests on board.

They were responsible for the financial safety and the personal safety of the guests.

However, at this moment, all the passengers on the ship did not feel safe at all.

Not only had all their money been stolen, but now their lives would be at risk. They should have been well-protected.

They gathered on the deck, looking at the three large ships with different flags flying on them. The people saw the blood stains on the hull of the ship and started screaming.

“What should we do? Are we going to die?”

“Those bandits, they won’t kill us, right?”

“Why will the bandits not kill us? I hear that they even eat people.”

…

“Damn thief.” Zhang Linpu’s eyes turned red and he cursed in exasperation.

“Linpu, the bandits are currently here. Why you are still concerned about those worldly items?” the friend beside him asked. “What is most important now is to stay alive.”

“Pingzhi, don’t you understand? What are the bandits’ main targets? Money! Our gold coins have all been stolen. When the bandits come on board and ask us for money, we can only tell them that the gold coins were already stolen last night. Will they believe it? If they can’t get the money, they will take our lives.”

“…” Niu Pingzhi also became terrified.

Li Muyang was surprised at Zhang Linpu, thinking that Zhang Linpu must be someone extraordinary to be able to come up with such an achievement. At least, Zhang Linpu’s thoughts made more sense than the others.

Li Muyang reached between his thighs discreetly and could feel the bag of gold coins. At least, it was still there. After that, Li Muyang’s nervousness abated a little.

He had money!

If those bandits were really here to rob them and his friends could not produce the money, he would take off his pants and count out the hundreds of gold coins he had. How impressive would he come across as?

Although the posture would not be dignified, at least he was sincere, right?

Chen Tao, the manager of the ship, forced himself to calm down, but his pale face and intermittent words still revealed his inner fear.

They had encountered lake bandits before, but they were only a small group of bandits numbering from a dozen to thirty or fifty people. They sent them away after giving them some money.

What was going on today? There were too many people here!

“A thousand days in the army, a moment in the war. I treated you all with good wine and meat and have never disappointed you guys. Warriors, our ship is in trouble now and we are encountering a large group of bandits from Cock-Crow Lake. They have different flags, so they must be three different groups of bandits. I hope that everyone can cooperate and bring out all your fighting spirit and courage.”

“Supervisor Chen, it is not that we are unable to fight. Look at the three big ships in front of us. I am afraid there are hundreds of bandits this time, right? You can’t let the twelve of us fight against hundreds of bandits. Even if we were immortals, we will not be able to do that, right?”

“That is right. Even if we risk our lives, we will only die in vain. If we are killed by these people, will all of you all be alright?”

“We had better pack up some valuable things and get rid of them with some kind words.”

…

The battle had yet to begin but the guards and warriors were already afraid.

The most terrible thing was that Li Muyang actually felt that what they said made sense.

Guards were also human beings. They also had parents and children. If you asked them to risk their lives, which actually meant they might die, they would not be willing to do it, right?

Chen Tao was in a great hurry. He turned to look at the students and said, “All of you are talented people. Now we are facing a disaster. We are all grasshoppers on the same boat, so why don’t you give us some suggestions?”

“We don’t have money,” Zhang Linpu shouted. “Even if we want to surrender, you must give them money to get rid of them.”

“That’s right. We can’t cut our flesh and send it over, can we?”

“Manager Chen, you have to stand up and take responsibility for this matter. We have no other choice…”

…

Li Muyang opened his mouth, but he did not say anything in the end.

He felt that what everyone said was indeed reasonable.

Sure enough, in times of crisis, the wisdom of the masses was powerful.

As for ‘Power’, who would think of such a useless thing at this moment?

Chen Tao’s lips twitched as he said, “Let us get in touch first and see what they want.”

Three old and dilapidated ships sailed over and narrowed the distance between each other, forming a front line of defense.

The lake was wide, but there was no room for their ship to pass through.

Chen Tao ordered the sailors to slow down so that the ship would not run into them. He could not let this happen— before the bandits could make a move, their ship had already been washed away by the waves.

A bald man stood on the big ship in front of them. He looked like he was made of copper.

There was a deep scar on the man’s face, from the tip of his eyebrow to the corner of his mouth, and one eye had been slit.

Therefore, he wore a copper eye mask over that eye, which made him look like a genuine pirate who was in control of the seas.

The man looked at the approaching ship and shouted, “Bring my chains.”

Then more than a dozen of his subordinates struggled to drag over a chain which was as thick as an arm, with a crescent-shaped bronze hook at the front.

“Disperse, guys.”

The scarred man roared and then swung the chain. After whirling it a few times in a circle above his head, he flung it toward the ship.

The copper hook was huge and heavy and made a whining sound as it soared through the air.

“Crack!”

The copper hook hit the deck of the ship and the sharp hook was deeply embedded in the body of the ship.

“Boss, you are awesome. Boss’s martial art skills are truly unrivalled.”

“Good job. I will record a first-class merit for you this time.”

“Pull it over, pull it over!”

…

Seeing their leader showing his magical powers, the bandits cheered on the boat.

“Just wait and see.” Monk Hua laughed heroically. He rolled the chain up with his arms and then exerted all his strength.

“Whoosh!”

Under the control of Monk Hua, the ship sailed toward their encirclement with unparalleled speed.

The people on board turned ashen-faced.

Wasn’t this fucking scary?

He came here to commit robbery, but now he turned the situation into an acrobatic performance. If the hook hit the ship, it would make a big hole. If it hit a man, would the man still be alive?

Li Muyang’s expression turned serious.

The few gold coins in his pants were certainly not enough to satisfy these people.

Their ship was like a big fish biting a hook and getting dragged to the shore by a fisherman.

When it entered the encirclement of the three big ships, those bandits would definitely jump over to start their robbing and killing spree.

Li Muyang stretched out his hand to make a fist and Qi was stored in his Dantian.

He was secretly on his guard.

At this critical moment, a man dressed in black showed up.

A man and a sword suddenly appeared. The sword was as colorful as a rainbow and slashed at the heavy iron chain with a burning light.

“Crack!”

The iron chain broke into two parts. Since Monk Hua had exerted all his power in pulling the chain, when it broke suddenly, he staggered backward.

The man in black drifted down and stood on the mast of the ship. The white sail and his black clothes fluttered in the breeze. The ship, which went with the flow, stopped in an instant.

He was the cold-faced Bodhisattva, Cui Zhaoren!

More than a dozen men in black had quietly jumped onto the deck of the ship, their hands ready on their sword hilts and stared coldly at the three big ships on their opposite side.

“Who dares to cut off my chain?” Monk Hua was flustered and shouted at them. “Come on, tell me your name and let me teach you a lesson!”

Cui Zhaoren’s expression was indifferent, but there was a wave of burning anger in his heart.

These damn guys, it was just their bad luck to choose this ship to attack.

If they did not show up, it would be impossible for the others to stop the bandits.

However, if they took action, they were afraid their whereabouts would be revealed and the forces of the Lu Family would follow the trail to rescue the prisoner.

While he was still hesitating, the ship had been reeled in by monk. The whole ship was about to be dragged into the encirclement.

If they continued to wait, their whereabouts would still be exposed.

Cui Zhaoren, who was filled with murderous intent, struck out angrily and cut off the monk’s copper hook with one stroke.

“There is a way to the Starry Sky, but you chose not to take it. There is no door to hell, but you chose to find it.” Cui Zhaoren’s gaze was cold as he shouted. “Kill them all. Leave no one behind.”

“Yes,” more than a dozen black-clad men received the order and answered proudly as one.

“Whoosh!”

More than a dozen swords were unsheathed. They were divided into three groups. They rushed toward the three great ships.

Immediately, a bitter killing spree broke out on the three great ships.

Those men in black were good at martial arts and their means were sinister. Every time they took out their swords, they were aimed at the key parts of the bandits.

Their heads were cut off by the swords.

Cui Zhaoren faced Monk Hua who was cursing. The corners of his mouth rose slightly and a charming smile appeared on his face. He said, “You wanted to teach me a lesson, then I will take your life.”

As he spoke, his body leaped up again.

His robe fluttered in the air and his body was like a great hawk flying in the sky.

He swooped down from the top and stabbed at Monk Hua’s bald forehead.

Monk Hua laughed wildly. He reached out his hand, grabbed the rest of the iron chains and swung it again. The long chain was like a snake, hurtling through the air. He shouted loudly, “Good! Let me…”

He could not speak any more.

Because Cui Zhaoren suddenly sped up.

He stabbed Monk Hua’s head with his sword.

His body dropped instantly and so did his long sword.

One Stroke Shocking the God.

One stroke took a life.

The long sword pierced all the way through until the hilt was deeply imbedded in his head.

“Even if you want to be a bandit, you need to read more books. Isn’t it better to be gentle when you plunder?” Cui Zhaoren stood upside down in the air and said to the monk, as a stream of blood flowed out of his head.

Then, with a twist of his body, the long sword was pulled out by him.

“Crack!”

The blood sprayed into the dark blue sky like a fountain.
