Chapter 178: Chapter 178 Sacrifice

It wasn’t just Castle who knew these cursed things were dangerous. Anyone with a working brain could tell.

So without Castle having to give the order, everyone covered their noses and quickly jumped away from the little iron spheres.

Boom boom boom boom...

The little iron balls transformed into bursts of small flames and exploded rapidly, instantly spraying out a dense spread of tiny nails, shooting towards the crowd.

"Ah—" The bodyguards who couldn’t dodge in time were impaled by the nails, covered all over their bodies; the sight could kill someone with a phobia of clusters on the spot.

While some managed to evade the nails, the powder that sprinkled down from the sky left them feeling dizzy, as if they had consumed dozens of pounds of spirits, unable to even lift their legs.

The only one on the field who remained unharmed and unaffected by the poison gas was Castle, because his constitution was the same as Yang Yu’s, immune to all poisons.

"Hmm?" He saw Yang Yu returning to the cruise ship, carrying two women and running towards the speedboat. He immediately picked up a gun and aimed at Yang Yu.

Whoosh!

The flying object above rushed straight towards Castle, and finally, Castle saw what it was.

A bird made of wood and metal!

Sensing that this mechanical golden wood bird might harm him, Castle immediately shot at it.

Bang!

The mechanical bird exploded on the spot. Even though Castle dodged swiftly, the flames from the explosion still scorched his hair and face.

"What is this monstrous thing!" Castle, who was always calm, was now emotionally shaken by this mechanical bird. But he quickly came to his senses, ready to fire at the speedboat that was starting up.

"Damn it!" Seeing Castle pick up the gun and aim at the speedboat’s driver, Yang Yu was already prepared to shield against the bullets.

Just as Castle was about to shoot, a figure dashed out from the side and pounced on Castle.

Bang!

Although Castle fired his gun, because he was disturbed, the shot missed.

Yang Yu could never have imagined that the person who saved them was none other than the casino manager, Ah Zheng!

Seeing Yang Yu’s speedboat escape his range, Castle unleashed all his anger on Ah Zheng: "Die!"

Yang Yu, who had excellent vision, clearly saw Castle’s foot stomp on Ah Zheng’s head.

With a "crack," Ah Zheng’s head was instantly crushed, blood splattering everywhere!

"He was part of the Yanhuang Team, my insider!" Although the two had never exchanged a word, Yang Yu’s eyes immediately moistened.

Ah Zheng had stood up, knowing full well that he would die, to protect their safe escape.

Yang Yu had always heard about the sacrificial spirit of Xia Country’s warriors, and today he had witnessed it firsthand.

Yet, he wished he never had to witness such a scene.

"I’m sorry..." Yang Yu fell into deep self-reproach, "If only I had planned more carefully, you wouldn’t have had to sacrifice yourself."

Luo Ziyi didn’t see who the insider was, but when she saw the sorrowful look on Yang Yu’s face, her heart was subtly touched: "At a time like this, this man isn’t worrying about his own safety, but instead, he is grieving for his teammate. Just now, he even risked his life to go back on the cruise ship to save two women of no apparent value, he truly values love and righteousness!"

Unconsciously, Luo Ziyi felt a strong curiosity towards this man called Lin Yan and even a surge of desire to get to know him better.

However, she quickly came to her senses and smiled bitterly, "This time I’ve caused such a big incident, I’m done for."

"Woof woof..." The little white dog barked a few times, and Yang Yu finally snapped out of it and picked it up, "Thank you, Ah Bai, you’ve worked hard."

Although Ah Bai was a "temp" bought from the pet market, its role was significant.

It first helped Yang Yu scout out the layout of the entire cruise ship and then assisted in searching for Lu Man.

The Wen Family had items that Lu Man had used, and Yang Yu let Ah Bai smell these items and then search everywhere, eventually finding Lu Man.

Yang Yu originally thought that after Ah Bai helped him throw so many explosive bombs, there wouldn’t be any left, but surprisingly, Ah Bai managed to escape back to the speedboat on its own, which was much cleverer than any bodyguard on the cruise ship.

Seeing the big fuss that Yang Yu had caused, Huang Shiyin and Zeng Miaohua couldn’t recover for a long time.

They had thought this cruise journey was just an ordinary trip in their lives, but it turned out to be so "memorable."

If they had the choice, they would rather have never boarded this ship.

Knowing that people had died to save them, the two women also felt very guilty, "We’re sorry, we shouldn’t have ignored your warnings."

"It’s alright, this isn’t your fault, it’s mine." Yang Yu still felt it was his lack of ability that had endangered his teammates, "You’re just ordinary people who knew nothing and got involved because of me. It’s not right to blame you."

Hearing what Yang Yu said, Luo Ziyi admired him even more.

If it had been any other man, he would have already cursed these two women, who were more trouble than they were worth, until they were drenched in dog’s blood.

Not only did he not scold them, but he also took the responsibility upon himself.

Wealthy, capable, and valuing loyalty and duty, such a man was rare in this world!

Yang Yu’s phone rang; it was from Ito Kiko, "I have good news and bad news for you, which one do you want to hear first?"

Yang Yu said, "The good news!"

"The good news is I’ve encountered a pirate fleet, and they’re not after me and Lu Man, we can safely head to Xia Country." Ito Kiko said, "So you should know what the bad news is, right?"

"Pirates?" Yang Yu immediately glanced at Luo Ziyi, his gaze icy, "Don’t tell me these pirates have nothing to do with the Luo Family."

Yang Yu’s suspicion was reasonable because the Luo Family’s business involved various grey and illegal dealings on the open sea, and it would be impossible to conduct such business without having a good relationship with pirates.

And now that the pirate fleet was mobilizing, there was no doubt that it should be the Luo Family who, after learning about this matter, sought help from the pirates to intercept Yang Yu.

Luo Ziyi said coldly, "I won’t say a word about the Luo Family’s affairs, so you might as well give up hope!"

"Not saying anything?" Yang Yu chuckled coldly, "When the pirates come, I’ll strip Miss Luo Jiayi naked and let them have a good look; let’s see if you’ll talk then!"

"You!" Luo Ziyi’s face was flushed with shame, and her brief positive feelings for Yang Yu vanished completely, "You’re simply not a man!"

"Whether I’m a man or not is for my woman to say, not you," Yang Yu’s gaze was icy, "I’ll ask you one last time, are these pirates sent by the Luo Family?"

Having said that, Yang Yu actually started to reach for Luo Ziyi’s clothes.

"I’m saying it, get your hands off!" Luo Ziyi shouted, looking at Yang Yu with gritted teeth and eyes filled with rage, "What do you want to know?"

Yang Yu snorted, "How many people does that pirate have, what’s their firepower like, and where is their headquarters?"

"I don’t know where their headquarters is; it’s not my responsibility," Luo Ziyi said with a face full of unwillingness, "But I’ve heard they have over a hundred men, all equipped with top-tier mercenary gear. Why, do you plan to take on their whole gang by yourself?"
