Chapter 692: Just die!

Don't worry, my father is a great shaman; he wouldn't dare do anything to me.

While saying this, he anxiously looked at the Sea Snake Tribe people quickly closing the distance, and he could even see the ferocious grin on the Sea Snake Great Shaman's face.

【Father, you killed the Sea Snake Chief's favorite offspring earlier; now your child will also die in their hands.】

Cut the nonsense; with the barrier protecting you, feel free to climb up.

Amid the males' roars, the female's voice, though not loud, was clear enough.

Seeing Wu Shi Yue's head pop out from above, Xiao Bai Lian Shou Ren was moved to tears.

Wu Shi Yue may not be easy on the eyes, but her heart is the prettiest, huh!

While the beastmen were climbing, the Sea Snake Tribe crowd had also reached beneath the ship; seeing the enormous, frightening water beast, even the Sea Snake Chief, who considered himself well-informed, couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.

"When did such a terrifying water beast appear in the Lin River?"

The Sea Snake Chief didn't hesitate long about whether to attack; in just a few breaths, his right arm muscles bulged, he let out a fierce shout, and the wooden spear in his hand shot out like an arrow from a bow, straight at Xiao Bai Lian Shou Ren on the lowest rung of the rope ladder.

Although separated by the talisman barrier, Xiao Bai Lian Shou Ren still felt a tremendous pressure.

The strong sense of danger made him instinctively stomp the ship's hull, using the recoil to shift two positions away.

"Pfft!"

The next moment, a scalp‑tingling scene appeared before everyone's eyes: the talisman barrier that could withstand a siege of dozens of gold‑rank beastmen without a scratch shattered amid the sound of bubbles popping.

Wu Yue's face changed abruptly; she instinctively flung out a new talisman and loudly shouted at the pale‑faced Xiao Bai Lian Shou Ren below: "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and climb!"

Her voice rang like a thunderclap atop Xiao Bai Lian Shou Ren's head; watching the wooden spear smash into the ship's hull and fall away, the fierce gust...

Xiao Bai Lian Shou Ren's tall frame shuddered; he wished his A Mu would give him eight legs: "Quick quick quick! I almost died!"

Using hands and feet, he scrambled up the rope ladder in a flash; as for stepping on a few tribesmen's heads during the climb, Xiao Bai Lian Shou Ren said, "When life is on the line, who cares about that?"

Only when a pair of big feet stepped onto the deck did he pant heavily and look toward Wu Shi Yue, who looked especially petite among the beastmen.

For some reason, his eye sockets grew hot: "Wu Shi Yue, every time I see your face I feel an overwhelming sense of safety."

Wu Yue: "..."

Well said; don't say it again.

"Bang bang bang!"

The powerful force repeatedly struck the hull; those on the deck felt vibrations underfoot, their faces grim.

"Snow Moon Tribe's little shaman, hand over the Sea Eel Tribe's youngsters willingly; this big guy can't protect you, hahaha!"

The gloomy, arrogant laughter echoed across the sea; Wu Yue's eyes darkened as she gazed at the distant Sea Snake Chief on the water.

"Sea Snake Chief, we have no grudge between us; the Sea Eel Tribe's beastmen are only here to fetch me, they don't want to fight you—please let us go."

The female's clear voice, amplified by her shamanic power, transmitted clearly into the Sea Snake Chief's ears.

"Hahaha, let you go? Only the Sea Eel Great Shaman's offspring can leave today—and even then only after I've vented my anger fully."

"As for the rest of you... hahaha... our tribe's giant python hasn't eaten its fill in ages."

Hearing the enemy show weakness, the Sea Snake Chief's arrogance flared, his voice full of malice.

Having lived all his life under his father's halo, Xiao Bai Lian Shou Ren couldn't take this; he let out a yell and leapt onto the ship's railing, hands on hips, shouting: "You ugly old thing, still dreaming of beauty—when I return to the tribe I'll tell my father and have him slaughter all you Sea Snake worms."

Crackle... splatter...

Xiao Bai Lian Shou Ren's saliva mixed with sweat sprayed outward, dripping onto the faces and bodies of the Sea Snake Tribe beastmen below who kept assaulting the hull.

Wu Yue watched the railing‑top Xiao Bai Lian Shou Ren, arms akimbo and shouting, already somewhat unhinged, and sighed deeply.

"You've got no fighting skill in a brawl, but you're top‑rank at showing off."

"Who gave you the courage, surrounded by a bunch of weaklings, to trash‑talk the strongest warrior of a super tribe?"

"Liang Jingru?"

Perhaps after he'd finished cursing, upon seeing the grim, ferocious Black Snake Chief below, Xiao Bai Lian Shou Ren broke into an ecstatic grin and jumped down from the railing, feeling refreshed.

"Wu Shi Yue, I've finished my rant—when are we going to take care of them?"

【Cracking one's knuckles. jpg】

Wu Yue wore a look of utter hopelessness: "Who told you I could take on a super tribe's chief?"

Xiao Bai Lian Shou Ren's face stiffened; a bad premonition suddenly rose.

He came over, rubbing his hands ingratiatingly, and said to Wu Yue: "You're joking, right? There's nothing you can't do, hehe."

Wu Yue: "Hehe."

After giving him a look that said 'settle the score later,' Wu Yue lifted her foot to the ship's edge, lowering her head to lock gazes with the grim‑faced Sea Snake Chief.

"Good fellow, looking at that ugly face, constipation is a disease."

"Wu Shi Yue, I'll give you one more chance—hand over the Sea Snake Tribe's offspring."

Perhaps angered by Xiao Bai Lian Shou Ren's recent tirade, the Sea Snake Chief's tone grew thick with killing intent.

Turning to glance at the good‑for‑nothing Xiao Bai Lian Shou Ren, Wu Yue's eyes darkened as she looked again at the Sea Snake Chief: "You can't kill this water beast, nor can you take anyone away."

You know my methods, Chief; even though I'm not as strong as you, if I want to leave you can't stop me.

Besides, if you push me too far, I don't mind taking a few Sea Snake Tribe warriors with me.

After all, I've just arrived at Bai Sha Yan Hai and really need some workers.

Her indifferent voice rang out across these waters; all around fell silent.

It seemed the Sea Snake Chief hadn't expected the tiny Snow Moon Tribe shaman to dare refuse him; after a stunned moment, he realized it, and rage instantly flooded his mind.

"Fine fine fine! I'd like to see how you take my Sea Snake Tribe's beastmen away!"

As his words fell, a thick layer of golden light burst forth around him, like armor enveloping the Sea Snake Chief's sturdy figure.

"Hey!"

His feet struck the sea surface as if stepping on ground, he pushed off and lunged toward the ship, shouting: "Just die!"
