Chapter 175 Even robbers get robbed one day.
"Where did you put the Thousand Wind Flowing Cloud Horse?"
Unexpectedly, Tao Tao led Lu Bai and the other two directly onto the ship, and even the protective barrier could not harm her. For a moment, Yun Canghai had to suspect that Tao Tao was hiding her strength.
Of course, what Yun Canghai cared about even more was the Thousand Wind Flowing Cloud Horse, which was the reason he came here.
"I don't know." Tao Tao shook her head innocently, as if this matter really had nothing to do with her.
But Yun Canghai wasn't stupid. There were only four of them at the time, and it was absolutely impossible for anyone on their side to take the Flowing Cloud Horse for themselves. So, besides Tao Tao, there was no one else.
"Don't know? Little girl, I know your cultivation is not low, which is why you dare to act so recklessly. But you are all alone here. Do you want to make an enemy of our entire Fanyun Village?"
Yun Canghai roared, and the three gray-robed elders, despite their injuries, came up behind him. The others also stared at him menacingly. Lu Bai and the other two were of no help at all, and Tao Tao seemed somewhat isolated and helpless.
"Miss Le, it's best not to confront them head-on..." Lu Bai, having regained his senses, hurriedly advised Tao Tao. After all, the other side had too many people. He knew Tao Tao was powerful, but how could one person defeat so many of them, especially since their cultivation level was not low either.
However, Tao Tao didn't take it seriously. With a smile, she waved her hand, and the Ice Lightning Sword appeared in her hand. The cold electric current gave people an inexplicable pressure, which even the three gray-robed old men were intimidated by.
It's this power! Sure enough, the lightning array is inextricably linked to her.
"What, do you really want to be my enemy?" Yun Canghai's face darkened, his tone threatening. Tao Tao ignored him, simply waving his sword indifferently. A bolt of blue lightning struck, landing not far in front of Yun Canghai, almost hitting him.
Tao Tao was warning that if Yun Canghai insisted on taking action, she wouldn't be afraid.
Seeing Tao Tao's confidence, Lu Bai swallowed back his words of further persuasion and silently watched from behind.
The gray-robed elder was furious. He didn't believe that Tao Tao was really that powerful. As a Foundation Establishment cultivator, wouldn't he lose face if he were suppressed by a little girl? He stepped forward and summoned a magic weapon that looked like a copper hook.
The moment the magical artifact was unleashed, it transformed into several hooks in the air, exuding a chilling aura. The gray-robed elder sneered, grabbed one end of a hook, and swung it forcefully. The three hooks flew towards Tao Tao with lightning speed.
Without retreating an inch, Tao Tao swung his sword, and several ice shards mixed with electricity struck the hook with a "bang." The electricity quickly flowed through the hook towards the gray-robed old man. Knowing how terrifying this electricity was, the gray-robed old man could only release his magic weapon. But the moment he released it, three ice shards were already close to him, piercing his body when he was completely unprepared.
"Ugh..." Although the three ice shards were not fatal, they seriously injured him. He suddenly knelt down and spat out a mouthful of blood. Just then, Tao Tao came flying through the air. The moment he pushed out his palm, a small lightning array was released from his palm. Several bolts of lightning quickly descended. The other two quickly set up a barrier on the spot to resist the falling lightning.
Unfortunately, the lightning was too powerful, and the barrier couldn't stop it at all. It was pierced through and struck the two of them, causing them to fall to the ground and convulse in pain.
Seeing this, Yun Canghai felt something was wrong. He thought that having more people would be an advantage and that Tao Tao would definitely be no match for him, but the difference in skill was truly revealed in their fight. No wonder Tao Tao was so confident.
All three were defeated, and Lu Bai secretly breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, he was secretly glad that Tao Tao was on his side, otherwise he really wouldn't know what to do.
Tao Tao had no intention of letting it go. She stabbed Yun Canghai with her sword. The sword was fast, accurate and ruthless. Before he could even see the afterimage, it had already sliced through his neck. If he hadn't reacted quickly, his head would probably be on the ground by now.
"You..." Yun Canghai was furious, but he was no match for Tao Tao, so he could only rage helplessly.
"Bang!" Just as Yun Canghai was furious, a loud noise suddenly came. A ship from Fanyun Village could not withstand the attack of the golden monster fish and was completely destroyed and sank into the Yan River.
The people on the remaining four ships were all panicked and looked to Yun Canghai for help, but Yun Canghai was in dire straits himself, so how could he possibly protect them?
Moreover, Yun Canghai's ship is in no better condition. Its spiritual energy is being tormented and continuously depleted, so it won't last long. Before long, this ship will also meet its end.
"Chief, the situation is not good now. You should not confront her head-on. She is hiding her strength. Even the three of us combined may not be a match for her. Right now, preserving our strength and staying alive is the most important thing."
The gray-robed old man used his last bit of spiritual power to send a telepathic message to Yun Canghai, hoping he wouldn't do anything foolish.
The situation is now beyond Yun Canghai's control. In addition, the Golden Monster Fish is also watching him closely. He should be more worried about the Golden Monster Fish than Tao Tao. Those monsters will not negotiate or reason with him.
Seeing Tao Tao's sword coming at him, Yun Canghai was already at a loss and hurriedly waved his hand, "Wait a minute, those monsters are still watching us. There's no need for you to try to kill me at this time. If you want to leave here safely, you definitely can't do it alone."
Upon hearing this, Tao Tao immediately sheathed her sword, looked at him suspiciously, and tilted her head to ask, "So? You have a way to leave here?"
Yun Canghai tentatively spoke up, "Yes, but this method has very strict conditions and requires a lot of spiritual power. If your cultivation level is not low, you may be able to give it a try."
"A lot of spiritual power?" Tao Tao thought for a moment and felt that this was a losing proposition, so he decisively refused, "Then forget it, I don't have a lot of spiritual power."
"You..." Yun Canghai almost spat out a mouthful of blood. Even at this point, she was still considering the issue of interests. Did she want to die here together?
"What about me?" Tao Tao asked, her eyes full of doubt. She wouldn't be foolish enough to waste her spiritual power. What if Yun Canghai suddenly turned against her? Who would she complain to?
"boom!"
Another loud bang rang out, and without even looking, it was clear that another ship had been destroyed. Yun Canghai panicked, worried that Tao Tao's resolute refusal meant he had no way out, which would put him in danger.
“I have spirit stones that can provide spiritual power, but the magic array still needs you and my people to activate it together.”
Yun Canghai had no choice but to compromise, since his life and fortune were in their hands.
"That's more like it!" Tao Tao nodded happily. "Okay, but what benefits will I get?"
"Benefits!?" Yun Zanghai's eyes widened, he could hardly believe what Tao Tao had said. Wasn't this her way of saving herself? And she was actually asking him for benefits?
Lu Bai, who was standing to the side, was also taken aback. He hadn't expected Tao Tao to have so many thoughts.
"No? Never mind then, I'll figure it out myself."
Tao Tao shrugged indifferently, glanced at the golden monster fish in the Yan River, and wondered if the inner core of this thing must be very valuable.
Seeing that Tao Tao didn't seem to be saying this on purpose, Yun Canghai couldn't help but sigh and said helplessly, "What benefits do you want? We can discuss everything."
"I want this." Tao Tao's eyes lit up, and she held up one finger at Yun Canghai, which puzzled Yun Canghai greatly. "What do you mean?"
"Ten thousand spirit stones."
"..."
Yun Canghai's face turned green with anger. He was about to retort when he heard Tao Tao say, "I know that spirit stones are needed to provide spiritual power to the formation, so you can use whatever you have to convert into spirit stones. Anything from demon beast cores, magic treasures, spiritual herbs, or spirit beast elixirs is fine. I'm not picky."
She spoke as if it were the most natural thing in the world, completely ignoring what Yun Canghai thought, which left Yun Canghai speechless. Lu Bai and Wang Zhao couldn't help but exchange glances, wondering if Tao Tao was planning to rob Fanyun Village.
Who would have thought that robbers would one day be robbed themselves?
"Chief, we can't wait that long. Let's not waste time with her. We can just leave and talk about it later."
Yun Canghai was still hesitating when the gray-robed elder quickly sent him a telepathic message, emphasizing that staying alive was the most important thing right now. If they dragged it out any longer, their ship would be in danger, and if Tao Tao really had a way to leave, they would be doomed.
Having no other choice, Yun Zanghai gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, I agree."
"Then give it to me. Cash on delivery. My senior brother said that when doing business, you must settle things immediately and not get entangled, lest you suffer endless troubles later." Tao Tao smiled sweetly and stretched out her hand to ask for the item.
"..." Yun Canghai was furious. He clenched his fists and threw the two storage bracelets at her. "Check them yourself."
Tao Tao took the storage bracelet and scanned it with his divine sense. There were quite a few good things inside, probably worth 10,000 spirit stones. So he happily put it away and said with a smile, "Okay, let's begin."
