Chapter 340: Chapter 339 Cooperation

Li Qi pondered the more his heart stirred.

However, Lin Hao did not notice Li Qi’s excitement and was still gazing at the distant sea.

Discuss slowly?

Wouldn’t that delay a lot of time?

Who knows what the outside world would have turned into during that time?

"We have no time left."

Lin Hao took a deep breath, "Among my companions are two women. According to that Fish Demon, their Mermaid Princess would be interested in their facial masks. Do you understand what that means?"

Women?

Li Qi and Lan Xinxin exchanged glances, both contemplating the matter.

"Fish Demons are exceedingly ugly in their male form, but the females possess the countenance and upper body of peerless beauties."

"It is said that Fish Demons are a hybrid of humans and fish, and they are capable of stripping beautiful human women of their faces and bodies."

"However, all of this has to go through a ritual. Only after the ritual can the female Fish Demons obtain the human female’s appearance."

"This process is known as fusion, and after the fusion, the Fish Demon becomes beautiful, while the human female will die."

"Die a very gruesome death, with the upper body turning into skinless flesh."

Over the millennia, there have been women from the island who were captured, and their end was always the same. Even Lan Xinxin herself, before breaking through the Refining God Realm, had several narrow escapes from being abducted.

"However, they have not held any rituals recently, so your female friends should still be alive." Li Qi looked at Lin Hao, as if he wanted to continue saying something but ultimately remained silent.

"I’m going to save them."

A cold light flashed in Lin Hao’s eyes; the life of Lan Yue Yuxue was not that important, but Poison Rose, in any case, was his woman in the previous life. Even though things haven’t progressed that far in this life, she is still his woman!

Lin Hao’s woman must not be tortured and killed by others.

Gripping his fists tightly, a surge of murderous aura emanated from Lin Hao.

Lan Xinxin and Li Qi were both taken aback by the killing intent on Lin Hao.

After exchanging looks, Lan Xinxin stepped forward and looked at Lin Hao, "Just by yourself?"

"Of course."

Lin Hao nodded, "In my life, I do not like to owe others favors. You have saved me once, and I owe you enough."

"But, you surely can’t rescue your friends by yourself, let alone seek revenge. Have you forgotten how you were beaten to the point of floating injured on the sea?" Standing shoulder to shoulder with Lin Hao, Lan Xinxin also gazed into the distance and said casually, "What if we cooperate?"

Cooperate?

Lin Hao looked at Lan Xinxin with surprise.

"That’s right, cooperate."

Li Qi also spoke on the side, "Our ancestors never stopped thinking about leaving this place, and so do we."

"But, to leave here, we must first kill those Fish Demons; otherwise, our team would be slaughtered to extinction as soon as we enter the waters of the Skeleton Islands."

"For thousands of years, the people of Death Island have been waiting for this day. Now, we’re just a bit short. As long as we’re strong enough, we can fight our way out."

"Mu Ri is known for his Divine Technique. If we cooperate, there might be hope."

As Li Qi spoke, his eyes were fixed on Lin Hao’s, as if trying to see through everything about him.

After all, to them, Lin Hao was just a stranger with unclear origins.

For centuries, many from Death Island have thrown in their lot with the Fish Demon tribe.

But Lin Hao’s eyes were as deep as an immense swirling vortex, leaving Li Qi not only unable to discern any emotional fluctuation in Lin Hao but nearly losing himself in those eyes instead.

Li Qi couldn’t make heads or tails of it.

"Come back with us, you will not regret it. If you insist on going alone, you will undoubtedly perish."

Lan Xinxin gently held Lin Hao’s hand, and for some reason, she always felt that there was a strange power in Lin Hao that stirred her heart.

"The more people we have, the greater our strength. Trust us."

"I believe if you were capable of dealing with the Fish Demons by yourself, you wouldn’t be in this situation now, right?"

Her words were a slap in the face.

However, coming from Lan Xinxin, Lin Hao did not feel annoyed. Instead, he calmed down.

Lan Xinxin was not wrong. Charging out alone, fighting in guerrilla fashion, might be doable, but eradicating the Fish Demon tribe was difficult.

"How shall we cooperate?"

Having calmed down, Lin Hao no longer mentioned the matter of the sea.

Li Qi and Lan Xinxin both breathed a sigh of relief. They waved to the others before turning to Lin Hao:

"Please come back to our tribe first, our Great Witch will tell you everything."

"Please accept these Primordial Stones. On Death Island, we lack everything but Primordial Stones."

Lin Hao nodded, walked up to the Primordial Stones, waved his hand, and the Void Ring flashed on his finger, instantly taking the thousand jin of Primordial Stones into the ring.

Everyone saw nothing but a flash of radiant light, and the mountain-like pile of Primordial Stones just vanished from sight, leaving them all dumbstruck.

"How... how do you carry so many Primordial Stones on you?"

Storage rings were unheard of on Death Island, and others could not see Lin Hao’s Void Ring. Unable to hold back, Lan Xinxin asked from the side.

"A storage ring, simply put, is like a world in a flower, for storing things."

Without further explanation, Lin Hao collected the Primordial Stones and followed Li Qi.

Soon, at a nearby harbor, Lin Hao saw a large group of tribespeople carrying survivors who were still bewildered by Illusion Techniques off a wooden ship.

"These people were all rescued from the Skeleton Islands."

"Can you bring them out of their illusions?" Lin Hao glanced at those people and asked casually.

"Yes. On Death Island, there’s a mineral that can dispel the Fish Demons’ illusions. However, that’s not enough. To kill the Fish Demons, we also need to deal with their other two abilities."

"Mind Attack and Catastrophe Heavenly Thunder. As long as these two abilities are broken, in truth, the Fish Demons’ cultivation and combat power are not that high." Li Qi said this while stealing glances at Lin Hao: "From what you’ve said, these two abilities of the Fish Demons don’t affect you?"

This was what Li Qi had been puzzled about, and no one believed him when he spoke about it.

But it had happened to Lin Hao.

"Mm."

Lin Hao simply hummed in response, instead of going into detail.

Li Qi felt disappointed but did not ask further. After all, when they got back to the tribe, the Great Witch would see through everything.

Meanwhile, deep in the ocean, on an island made of white bones, a luxurious palace built with all kinds of bones stood.

Inside the palace, numerous Half Mermaids stood solemnly, and at the top of the great hall, a Mermaid of breathtaking beauty with stunning looks that could outshine the moon and stars, her fair face ice-cold and eyes focused, was looking coldly at Michelle Miller who knelt in the center of the hall.

"What? You lost the blue crystal?"

"Yes... but there is evidence suggesting that the crystal is now on Death Island." Michelle Miller bowed her head deeply, her voice filled with murderous intent: "Please grant me one more chance, Clan Leader. I swear to wash Death Island in blood and retrieve the blue crystal!"
