Chapter 211: Boss Yu

Chapter 211: Boss Yu

There was a large archipelago in the center of the Four States Lake.

The archipelago itself was not very big. It was like a torn piece of paper thrown into the water, covering an area of over one hundred miles.

The largest island there was as big as Central State City. Because it looked like a skeleton, it was named Skeleton Island.

Skeleton Island was the headquarters of the Giant Shark Gang!

Chu Tian, Chen Bingyu, and Old Fifth Yu were sitting in a small boat, passing by the archipelago.

Every island had a trace of human civilization. For example, crude buildings, or fish nets filled with seafood drying.

Although the Giant Shark Gang was strong, they did not have a source of income. With their large numbers on top of that, their lives were very hard. It was a good thing the Four States Lake was rich in sea life, otherwise the hundred thousand people might have died. With only seafood to live on, it was impossible for them not to rob merchants for extra money, but they were still very poor.

The little boat arrived at Skeleton Island.

Old Fifth Yu jumped into the water. Because the Giant Shark Gang did not need a pier, he personally pulled the water to shore, “Two guests, please follow me!”

Chu Tian walked in front with Chen Bingyu following her. They saw a large group of white stone stacked into a giant gate and behind the gate was a paved stone path, leading up a mountain in the middle of the island. There was a small open plaza there with several serious lake god statues standing there.

For many years now, the Giant Shark Gang had not let anyone in.

There were no strangers who were allowed on the archipelago, not to mention the core Skeleton Island. So when Chu Tian came, it immediately attracted the attention of many people and they came over with their weapons.

“The fifth master is back!”

“I already said, how could the fifth master be captured?”

“Fifth master, are these two people sacrifices for the lake gods?”

The Giant Shark Gang members were all dressed strangely. Their clothes, vests, and boots all seemed to be made of sharkskin. Their clothing was very tattered, making them look like shipwrecked sailors.

Chen Bingyu was a little confused. Although they had this kind of strength, they lived like beggars. This was rarely seen in the Southern Summer Country!

Among the members were old people, women, and even children.

The Giant Shark Gang was created around twenty years ago, it was impossible for them to have all these members from the beginning. They should have been added on later.

How did they join?

There was no need to guess!

The Giant Shark Gang attacked ships and villages, capturing people along with their goods. The reason why the Giant Shark Gang liked to kidnap people was that it was a way of stopping them from bringing trouble, and it would also allow them to expand the Giant Shark Gang.

These captives were given the power of the inheritance, gaining the innate talents and bloodline of the sea race. At the same time, they were cursed to never be able to leave the Four State Lakes again.

They finally had no choice but to join the Giant Shark Gang.

Escape? It was impossible! Once a Giant Shark Gang member escaped to land, they would dry up within one-two days before dying.

“Scram!”

“Everyone scram!”

Old Fifth Yu disperse most of the crowd gathering around. Bringing Chu Tian halfway up the mountain, he led the way into a moist, deep cave. This deep cave was where the high level experts of the Giant Shark Gang lived and only branch lords or above could enter.

“Old fifth! How did you come back!” A skinny middle aged man wielding two blades was meditating inside. When he saw Old Fifth Yu walk in, he immediately revealed a look of pleasant surprise, “Did those damn Central State people let you off? Did they do anything to you!”

Old Fifth Yu cupped his hands, “Thanks for fourth brother’s concerns. I’m fine…..”

“Old fifth!” Old Fifth Yu did not even finish before a hoarse and severe voice came from the deep dark cave, “Why did you bring outsiders here? Did you forget the rules?”

Chu Tian looked into the abyss.

There was a natural pool in the center of the cave. Waves suddenly appeared and a stooped figure slowly appeared from the water. He was covered in water and droplets continued to fall to the floor. A terrifying and cold aura slowly filled the cave, making everyone feel a chill.

“Big brother! Please listen to my explanation!” Old Fifth Yu respectfully cupped his hands, “This Central State Person can cure the curse that has plagued us for many years!”

“How bold! Old fifth! You dare slander the lake gods!” A gray haired, tall, and large man walked out. His face was filled with rage as he roared, “Do you even know what you’re doing!”

Old Fifth Yu anxiously said, “Second brother, I didn’t…..”

“Lake gods? Ha, ha, ha, ha!” Chu Tian did not want to listen to them and immediately broke out in laughter. A clear voice rang out through the deep cave, “To rule this archipelago and over a hundred thousand people, you invented the lake gods for people to worship, right? The funniest thing is that the creator of the lie is actually forcing themselves to believe it!”

Where were there lake gods?

The Giant Shark Gang was a special school at best!

For the Giant Shark Gang to better rule their school, they created the mysterious lake gods. They wanted to rule over people’s faith, firmly ruling over the general members, making them devote themselves to the lake gods and in term them.

Otherwise.

It was hard to explain this very strange strict restriction placed on them.

The large gray haired man angrily said, “Insulting the lake gods! Seeking death! Sacrifice him to the lake gods!”

“Tarnishing the lake gods’ name, death!”

“Kill him!”

The Giant Shark Gang high level members were all filled with rage as they released a terrifying killing intent.

Chen Bingyu’s brows tightly knit together. This cave was too dark and there was close to no light here, so it was hard to see everything. However, from the aura and killing intent released, it seemed like there were quite a few experts in the Giant Shark Gang. Or at least more than she imagined.

Chu Tian’s expression did not say as he said, “If my guess isn’t wrong, you’ve picked up a sea race treasure that should be an ancient sea race altar that strengthens bloodlines. The ritual requires a sacrifice ceremony that stimulates the hidden potential in one’s blood. This was something that only the sea race possesses, but you foolishly took it and used it to increase your own strength.”

“However, what you didn’t know is that human bodies cannot withstand the sea race’s sacrifice rituals. If you forcefully use the ritual, there will be a mutation and you will slowly change into a member of the sea race. The fish gills are merely initial changes. Once the mutations start, you will not have a way of stopping it. You will not be able to leave water or stop offering sacrifices, otherwise in a day, your bodies will dry up and you will die!”

“Of course, you can continue offering sacrifices, maintaining the active state of the sea race blood inside of you, making your blood closer to the sea race’s! Your bodies will have more and more of the sea race’s characteristics. You will become a monster that isn’t human or fish. When your human blood is not enough to suppress the foreign blood, you will die of blood rejection!”

“Whether it is giving up the sacrifices or continuing the sacrifices, it is a dead end. Am I right!”

These forceful words reverberated through the cave, stunning all the angry Giant Shark Gang members into silence!

“Ke, ke, ke!” That white haired old man in the pool slowly stood up. In a cold and hoarse voice, he said, “Which saint is this sir?”

“I don’t dare, this one is Chu Tian……”

The white haired old man was very tall, but he was stooped over right now. There was an old fish mask on his face and a fish bone cane in his hand.

Chu Tian did not even finish speaking!

The white haired man gently snapped his finger and a drop of water flew right at Chu Tian.

So fast!

Chu Tian did not have time to dodge. When the water drop was in front of him, it suddenly expanded, forming a giant water net. It wrapped around Chu Tian and it suspended him in the air.

This water net seemed weak, but it was actually very strong.

With Chu Tian’s current cultivation, he could not break out.

The white haired old man had a pair of strange purple eyeballs that were releasing killing intent, “Do you think with the Divine Wind Marquis backing you, you can just walk into my Giant Shark Gang? Even if the Divine Wind Marquis came in, this old man would still fight with him, not to mention a little brat like you!”

Chen Bingyu’s eyes revealed a sharp gaze.

A cold qi came from her palm, attacking the white haired old man with her palm.

The white haired old man released another water drop that shot at Chen Bingyu. She knitted her brows and released a white light, instantly freezing the water drop.

“Humph!”

The white haired old man gave a cold snort.

The ice bead shattered and a strong power filled every corner of the cave, making everyone here stumble.

The expressions of the Giant Shark Gang high level members changed.

This girl’s cultivation was very high. Even if it was a bit inferior to the boss’, it was not inferior to the second master’s.

Chen Bingyu was forced back several steps and her expression sunk a bit…..This old monster was stronger than she imagined, even she might not be his match.

The white haired old man was surprised.

This woman’s age was not high and her cultivation was only a bit weaker than his. Adding in the fact that the Divine Wind Marquis was here, this person visiting the Giant Shark Gang was not a simple person!

Old Fifth Yu was afraid something bad would happen, “Big brother, stop! You can’t kill him!”

Chu Tian was still trapped in the water net. Although he couldn’t move, he wasn’t afraid at all because the old man did not have any killing intent.

“Giant Shark Gang’s Boss Yu is really powerful, even being a step higher than Chen Bingyu.” Chu Tian said in a casual manner. Without the consciousness of a captive at all, he said, “However, you are the one with the deepest sea race inheritance. If I’m not wrong, your body should have changed. You hands and feet should have webs, your body should have scales, and your skeleton structure should have changed.”

The Giant Shark Gang members were shocked.

The boss never took off his mask and always tightly covered up, could his body really have undergone a mutation?

The white haired old man was silent.

“I’m certain that you won’t live past half a year!” Chu Tian shouted, “It’s fine if you die by yourself, but will you risk the lives of the Giant Shark Gang members and your brothers who have gone through life and death with you?! Or do you want to see your brothers that have gone through life and death with you turn into monsters?!”

The white haired old man’s body trembled.

“Big brother!” Old Fifth Yu quickly came forward, “Mister Chu Tian can really help us. The power of the curse on my body has already been dispelled. If you don’t believe me, have a look!”

The white haired old man gripped Old Fifth Yu’s wrist.

The pair of purple eyes became more serious before it was filled with shock. Finally it revealed a look full of disbelief and wild happiness.

It was really…..dispelled?
