Chapter 339: Chapter 338: What a Tone of Arrogance

Li Qi bellowed in rage, truly incensed. He knew that after his son’s impulsive and irrational actions today,

The first attack missing its mark, not even grazing the hem of a garment, should have made it clear that he was no match for Mu Ri, yet he persisted in attacking.

Had it been someone else, or someone with murderous intent, Li Gui might well be a corpse by now.

But, clearly, Li Gui did not grasp this fact.

Coming to his senses, he looked at Li Qi in astonishment, as if he couldn’t believe his own ears.

His father had never spoken to him like this before!

"Why should I apologize! He’s a Fish Demon! A human transformed by the Fish Demon’s Illusion Technique! He’s not a person!" Li Gui trembled in fear, but finally snapped out of the terror that had seemed like the approach of the grim reaper. As soon as he heard he had to apologize, he immediately refused!

Today had been embarrassing enough for Li Gui, frightened to the point of wetting himself—and in front of Lan Xinxin no less!

Lan Xinxin, the one he’d secretly longed for over the years, everyone on Death Island knew they were a pair.

But now, with Mu Ri’s arrival today, Li Gui saw Lan Xinxin’s considerable concern for Mu Ri. Now he’d been so scared by Mu Ri he’d wet himself; his face, utterly and completely lost.

The thought of exposing such an ugly side of himself directly in front of Lan Xinxin lit a sinister fire within Li Gui, his eyes turning a bloodshot red in his madness, as he turned and shouted at everyone:

"He’s a Fish Demon! Can’t you all see it? He’s a Fish Demon! Quick, kill him, kill him!"

"Quick, why don’t you move! Kill him, he’s a Fish Demon, a Fish Demon! Have you all fallen for an Illusion Technique too?!"

Li Gui screamed frantically, but not a single ancient tribesman heeded him.

Li Qi’s face turned exceedingly ugly, and he could only give an awkward smile to Lin Hao while inwardly, he sighed. Finally, he gritted his teeth and rushed forward to try and stop Li Gui.

"What are you doing, isn’t this disgrace enough?"

But, Li Qi was no match for Li Gui, who repelled him with a counter palm strike that sent him stumbling backward, his face flushing a deep red as he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Catch him, what are you waiting for, kill that Fish Demon!"

Li Gui continued to shout, having flung Li Qi aside, and now once again pounced towards Lin Hao.

This time, even Lan Xinxin couldn’t stand by. She flashed forward and grabbed Li Gui’s wrist.

"Li Gui!"

Lan Xinxin, being powerful, issued a fierce shout. Although it wasn’t loud, it struck Li Gui’s ears like thunder from the clear sky!

"I..."

Li Gui shuddered all over, only then realizing the person standing before him was Lan Xinxin. His face, which had gone pale, instantly turned beet red. He lowered his head, not daring to meet Lan Xixi’s eyes, and said through gritted teeth, "Don’t stop me. I’m going to kill him, I want a duel!"

"Li Gui! What’s the matter with you, he’s not a Fish Demon, he’s a human! The Primordial Stones are real!" Lan Xinxin pushed Li Gui back, then turned with an embarrassed look to Lin Hao.

"I’m sorry, he... he..."

Lan Xinxin was at a loss for words, she faintly understood why Li Gui was acting this way, but she couldn’t say it aloud.

"It’s okay."

Lin Hao shook his head and turned towards the sea.

The waters as dark as ink surged wave up wave, and in the distance under the colorful lightning, the Skeleton Islands appeared intermittently.

He wondered how Song Qinghong and the others were doing; Li Lang did not want to waste any more time here.

The Fish Demon was strong, but Lin Hao was unafraid.

At the very least, he had to rescue Song Qinghong and the others.

"Could you provide me with a boat? I need to go back." Lin Hao took a deep breath and asked seriously.

"Go back?"

Lan Xinxin looked at Lin Hao in astonishment, finding him infinitely mysterious, and for a moment, she was speechless.

After having Li Gui taken away, Li Qi turned back and walked up to Lin Hao.

"This young hero, we were rash just now. My son has been spoiled like a treasure since he was young, which is why he was so discourteous." Li Qi showed an awkward expression before turning to look out to sea, shaking his head, "However, young hero, wanting a boat to go rescue someone, I’m afraid that’s not possible."

"Oh?"

Lin Hao’s brow raised with displeasure, "What do you mean?"

"Don’t misunderstand, young hero, this is also for your own good," Li Qi, seeing the expression on Lin Hao’s face and knowing that he was somewhat misunderstood, hastily said, "Let alone the fact that the Fish Demon clan is quite powerful and near enough rules this part of the sea. Even if we had a boat right now, you couldn’t go out to sea before the tide recedes."

"Look."

Li Qi said, pointing towards the sea’s surface, "This Black Tide, even our best boats can’t withstand it. Anything chased down by the Black Tide will instantly be devoured by those things."

The Black Tide?

It was only then that Lin Hao remembered such a thing.

Indeed, looking out over the vast sea, all one could see was that kind of black water capable of swallowing everything.

But what about Song Qinghong and the others?

Just watch them die?

Damn it!

Lin Hao took a deep breath and punched a rock beside him.

The rock was instantly shattered, with pieces scattered around.

"Believe that your friends will be alright."

Seeing Lin Hao like this, Li Qi comforted him from the side.

Will be alright?

Lin Hao knew in his heart how slim that chance was; it was just an empty consolation.

By now, Song Qinghong and the others had probably already been killed!

"Fish Demons? I will make them disappear from this world completely!" Lin Hao huffed angrily, turned around to face Li Qi, "Tell me, can you give me a boat? When the tide falls, I must go save my friends. If they are alive, I will rescue them. If they’ve been killed, I, will exterminate the entire Fish Demon clan!"

Exterminate the entire Fish Demon clan?

What a bold claim.

Li Qi and Lan Xinxin exchanged a glance, feeling this human youth before them was incredibly presumptuous.

"A boat... we can give you one, but... the place where the Fish Demons live, I’m afraid... you won’t be able to get there. Our tribe has been trapped in these waters for thousands of years, dreaming of leaving this place generation after generation. But, for all these thousands of years, none of us has been able to leave."

Li Qi sighed deeply, but his gaze drifted toward the pile of Primordial Stones that resembled a small mountain in the distance.

Suddenly an idea struck him.

This young man before him had witnessed too many miracles, and also had significant Cultivation.

What if he really did have the ability to exterminate the Fish Demons?

"This matter is of great importance, how about we return to our tribe first and discuss it at length?" Li Qi looked at Lin Hao, his heart growing more and more excited.

If everything Lin Hao said was true, then perhaps the inhabitants of Death Island truly had a chance to realize their dreams that spanned millennia.

After all, no one had ever been scorched black all over by Michelle Miller’s Catastrophe Heavenly Thunder and still survived, let alone recovered rapidly in an instant.

And nobody could casually conjure a thousand pounds of Primordial Stones out of thin air.

All of these were miracles.

And since this young man had already created so many miracles, perhaps he could create even more!
