Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning-Chapter 1288 - 496: The Long Night (Part 3)

"Senior Brother... Quick... Go..."

The light in their eyes gradually faded, but there was a trace of reluctance, an unwillingness to part with the person before them.

"Ah!!!!!!!"

Wang Shengyuan roared angrily to the sky, and with a pop, a mouthful of reverse blood sprayed out violently.

...

...

Outside of Wuhua Island.

Of the three large ships the Qi family possessed, only one remained now.

The two ships beside it, engulfed in flames, were sinking into the ocean step by step.

A man dressed in luxurious clothing, with a silver half-mask covering the upper half of his face, held the throat of a Qi Family Disciple, stepping forward on the deck.

The face of the Qi Family Disciple showed a struggle, and he desperately clutched the man's wrist with both hands.

Noticing the situation, the man glanced down at him and had a sudden realization:

"Oh... I'm sorry."

His voice was sincere, and his attitude was earnest.

The next moment, with a crack, the disciple's neck was snapped by the man:

"I should let you die a bit more comfortably."

Muttering under his breath, after tossing the corpse aside, he finally returned to the ship head, shading his eyes to gaze at Wuhua Island not far away.

Wang Shengyuan was right; it was impossible to see much in the darkness.

One could only make out the vague silhouette of an island, looming faintly ahead.

Yet the man seemed to see everything happening on the island as if it were clear:

"Should... be almost there, right?

"After so much feeding, and so much bloodshed, so many deaths.

"It should be enough, right?"

The sound of footsteps approached from behind.

Three people emerged from the cabin.

The first, a burly man with a wolf fang club resting on his shoulder.

His bare chest was crisscrossed with sword and knife wounds.

But he seemed to ignore them.

His face was full of satisfaction and desire for more.

Beside him was a girl in black clothing.

She held a woman's head in her hands, staring into its eyes.

Bringing up the rear was a pale young man.

His brows furrowed, and he watched the two beside him with wary, heavy eyes, casting an even more disgusted look at the man in the silver mask at the ship head.

"Alliance Leader... the people on this ship are interesting."

The man with the wolf fang club laughed heartily:

"Sure enough, they are Qi Family Disciples. They have spirit and martial arts skills, resisted fiercely, and it is gratifying. The only pity is, there are too few of them, not enough for enjoyment!"

As he spoke, he glanced at the head in the girl's hands and curled his lip:

"How long are you planning to carry around that head?"

The girl glanced at him:

"Who do you think looks better, me or her?"

"She looks better."

"I thought so."

The girl seemed saddened upon hearing this.

Then she turned, taking out a small knife, white cloth, and various bottles and jars from her bosom, placing them on the deck.

As the waves surged, she began slicing along the face of the head with her knife...

"Enough... enough already!!"

The young man at the back gritted his teeth:

"Demon! Unspeakably evil demon!!

"If you have the ability, kill me!

"How dare you behave so lawlessly and do such evil right before my eyes!"

But the two beside him ignored his words.

Only the man in the silver mask at the ship head glanced at him with a slight smile.

The young man, enraged, pointed at him and shouted:

"As the Youyun Alliance Leader, you know well that those under you are difficult to control.

"Yet you insist on letting them carry out these outrageous deeds here.

"And still require them to keep it a secret!

"How can they keep it?

"If not for this, why would it have provoked the Qi Family to send people to kill?

"Now, it has even drawn the Qixue Sword Slave to the island, wantonly slaughtering the Youyun Alliance brothers...

"Truly despicable!!

"Do you still count as the Youyun Alliance Leader?"

"What do you think it means to be the Youyun Alliance Leader?"

"I..."

The young man was at a loss for words.

The Youyun Alliance Leader laughed:

"The Youyun Alliance are pirates.

"Shouldn't pirates die?

"They bully the weak and fear the strong, plunder merchants, abduct women and children,

"wantonly humiliate and sell them.

"Aren't their deeds... worthy of death?"

"But... you are the Youyun Alliance Leader..."

The young man spoke instinctively.

"So, I should die too."

The Youyun Alliance Leader smiled slightly:

"It's just that the time hasn't come for my death yet.

"Once I've done everything I want to do...

"I'll go to my death without hesitation.

"As for those pirates...

"They are merely tools to be used.

"Dying for what I want to accomplish.

"It's perfectly fitting.

"If you utter another word, be mindful of your life."

"...Hmph."

The young man sneered: "If you want to kill me, then kill me. You're a demon who kills without blinking, so why care about my life?"

"Hahahahaha!"

The Youyun Alliance Leader burst into laughter:

"I can't kill you... I really can't.

"You're too interesting.

"Almost like my conscience."

With that, he suddenly waved his hand:

"Let's go."

"Huh?"

The girl exclaimed:

"Wait, wait! I'm not done yet!"

However, the Youyun Alliance Leader wasn't one to wait.

Exasperated, she hastily tidied up.

Turning back, she looked at the burly man beside her:

"Do I, do I look better now?"

The burly man glanced at her.

He saw a gruesome human skin covering her face.

The human skin was clearly not properly arranged, fresh blood trickled down her cheeks, blurring her entire face beyond recognition.

It's impossible to say she looked better; showing such a face would surely scare people to death.

But the burly man merely ruffled her hair:

"Good-looking...

"Our A su is the most beautiful."

"Mm-hmm."

The girl, hearing this, was immediately satisfied.

Holding the burly man's hand, she followed behind the Youyun Alliance Leader.

The young man stood there, glancing at the now faceless head, gritting his teeth:

"Mad... they're all mad!!"

Speaking, he immediately followed a few steps, leaping off the large ship.

Landing on a small boat.

As the small boat drifted away, the large ship behind gradually sank into the deep sea.

It was only after they completely vanished that a lone figure arrived late on a small boat, his face slightly changing at the sight of the sea fire.

Looking up at the island, he furrowed his brows momentarily.

After hesitating for a long while, he tightened his hold on the broad-backed dragon patterned Blade and steered the boat toward the island...

The night was silent, the cold moon slanted westward.

This long night was finally slowly coming to a close.
