Chapter 830: Plunder

Gu Changhuai was further away and didn't hear Mo Hua's shout, but he did see that flare signal.He was very familiar with this flare signal."Mo Hua!"Gu Changhuai's expression froze."Mo Hua?" Xia Dian Si was startled. She used her icy short sword to cut the throat of a water bandit, then turned to look at Gu Changhuai, frowning as she said, "Didn't he stay on the ship outside?"Gu Changhuai was silent.Mo Hua was as clever as a little devil; he wouldn't be surprised by anything Mo Hua did.Furthermore, with his temperament, if he could honestly stay on the ship and not cause any trouble, that would truly be a ghost.Gu Changhuai pondered for a moment and said, "I'll go take a look..." After speaking, he used his body technique, his figure like wind, and rushed in the direction of the flare signal."Gu..."Xia Dian Si didn't have time to finish speaking. Seeing that Gu Changhuai had already gone far, she shook her head, instructed several of the Xia family's direct descendants nearby, and also used her body technique, rushing after him.Outside the stone stronghold, Mo Hua urged his Shuishang Bu, running at full speed, his figure extremely fast, leaving a faint watery trail as he weaved through a group of water bandits who were bewildered and didn't know what was happening.And behind him, Shui Yan Luo was like a madman, his eyes red, desperately chasing and trying to kill him, gritting his teeth and shouting:"You dog thief, don't run!"Mo Hua ran even faster.He had calculated that he could only run now.Originally, he had planned to use a small Tianxiang Shu to sneak attack and kill Shui Yan Luo and snatch his jade box.But the small Tianxiang Shu took too long to activate, and Shui Yan Luo was too alert, failing several times.Time was also too urgent, there wasn't enough time to set up an array, and there wasn't enough time to use the Yujian.If he was a little slower, this jade box would have been put into Shui Yan Luo's Qiankun Dai.Once the jade box entered Shui Yan Luo's Qiankun Dai, it would be several times more difficult to snatch it back.Fortunately, after some effort, taking advantage of Shui Yan Luo's haste and carelessness, he pulled the teeth from the tiger's mouth and finally got the jade box.Since the jade box was in hand, he couldn't possibly fight Shui Yan Luo to the death.Although Mo Hua didn't know exactly what this jade box was, looking at Shui Yan Luo's appearance, he feared it was more precious than his life.His lifeblood had been snatched, and now Shui Yan Luo was a "furious" Shui Yan Luo.Mo Hua certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to provoke him.What's more, there was still a pile of water bandits around.So the best way was to "run".He also wasn't without "reinforcements".Mo Hua released the flare, and after running for a while under Shui Yan Luo's mad dog-like pursuit, he looked up and saw Gu Changhuai, who was like a gale of wind. He was immediately overjoyed and shouted:"Uncle Gu, Shui Yan Luo is here!"Shui Yan Luo!Gu Changhuai's pupils shrank, and his gaze immediately became sharp. His entire body of green wind turned into feather blades, and he charged towards the Shui Yan Luo who was chasing Mo Hua.And behind Gu Changhuai, the instant he heard Mo Hua shout the three words "Shui Yan Luo", Xia Dian Si's killing intent also became stern. Three icy cold sword qi condensed above her short sword, breaking through the air, drawing out cold, gloomy sword light, and rushing straight towards Shui Yan Luo."Two Golden Cores!"Shui Yan Luo's gaze immediately flickered with shock.The feather blades were magnificent, and the ice swords were cold, arriving in a flash.Shui Yan Luo had to give up on Mo Hua and go all out to cope with Gu Changhuai and Xia Dian Si's killing moves.Mo Hua got a moment to catch his breath and quietly retreated to the side. He spent a little time putting the jade box into his Jiezi.This way, Shui Yan Luo would never see this treasure of his again in his lifetime.And on the other side, the furious Shui Yan Luo had no time to care about anything else.If it was about raw strength, Gu Changhuai, even with his cultivation restricted, could still steadily suppress him.One Gu Changhuai was originally enough for him to handle.Now there was also a Xia Dian Si.Shui Yan Luo's pressure doubled, and after several rounds, he had five or six more wounds on his body. If this continued, he feared that after dozens of rounds, he would be taken down.Shui Yan Luo's heart was shocked and angry, blood appeared in his eyes, and killing intent condensed.Having fought Shui Yan Luo before, Gu Changhuai also had experience. The instant the killing intent was revealed, he had a premonition in his heart and immediately said to Xia Dian Si:"Don't look at his eyes!"Xia Dian Si was slightly startled by the words, but she also listened to Gu Changhuai's instruction, avoiding Shui Yan Luo's eyes and only looking at Shui Yan Luo's heart.All sword moves were directed towards Shui Yan Luo's heart.Shui Yan Luo was extremely angry and cursed in his heart:"Damn it, how did these two Golden Cores guard against my pupil technique?!""Exactly which inside ghost leaked my move?"The last time he fought Gu Changhuai, Gu Changhuai covered his face and used a sword that was not commonly used, and his identity was related to the "Shuiyu Men".And now Gu Changhuai was a Dao Ting Si Golden Core Dian Si, using a feather fan to urge the wind blade technique, which was his everyday skilled technique, and his strength was clearly a level higher than before.Shui Yan Luo didn't recognize him for a moment.After several more exchanges, Shui Yan Luo's mood was heavy."If this continues, I'll die! I must escape!""But if I escape, that jade box..."Shui Yan Luo's heart felt like it was being cut by a knife, his eyes were so red they almost dripped blood.Then he fiercely gritted his teeth, "Forget it! As long as I keep my life, everything is still possible to turn around. If I lose things, I can snatch them back later!"Shui Yan Luo made up his mind, used Shuishang Bu, avoided the wind blades from Gu Changhuai, and barely dodged an ice sword, then circulated his spiritual power to the extreme.His figure suddenly turned into several watery shadows.These watery shadows, like ghosts, pounced and attacked Gu Changhuai and Xia Dian Si, hindering them for a moment.By the time Gu Changhuai and the two of them distinguished the true body among the watery shadows, Shui Yan Luo had already escaped nearly ten zhang away.Just at this moment, a Shui Lao suddenly descended, turning into six water-form spirit locks, firmly binding Shui Yan Luo.Shuiyu Men's techniques had "levels".Three spirit locks were almost useless to Shui Yan Luo.But six spirit locks truly trapped Shui Yan Luo for a bit.Although this time was still very short, even less than a breath.But Shui Yan Luo's expression still changed:Shui Lao Technique!He turned his head and looked at Mo Hua, who was hiding in the dark, and said in a cold voice: "It's you?!"That person from the ferry that day, the remnant of the Shuiyu Men skilled in the Shui Lao Technique?!!No wonder, he felt this thief's aura was so familiar...And he also instantly understood why this little thief was hiding in the dark, exhausting his thoughts and racking his brains, wholeheartedly wanting to snatch the Shuiyu forbidden box from his hand.Because this was the highest inheritance of the Shuiyu Men.But immediately, a doubt arose in Shui Yan Luo's heart.Not right...This thief's Shui Lao Technique had improved by more than a fold compared to before.Even if he was a true disciple of the Shuiyu Men, it was fundamentally impossible to advance the Shui Lao Technique to this level in such a short time.Who exactly was this little thief?Just as he was pondering, Gu Changhuai's wind blade attacked again.Shui Yan Luo didn't have time to think deeply and had to retreat.Mo Hua used the Shui Lao Technique again to trap him.But this time, Shui Yan Luo was prepared and spread his body's water energy throughout his body. As soon as he touched the Shui Lao, he would break free on his own.Mo Hua's skill, which could condense six spirit locks with the Shui Lao Technique, was once again discounted in effectiveness.Like this, Shui Yan Luo fought and escaped at the same time, and the wind blade and ice sword wounds on his body became more and more numerous.Under the joint attack of Gu Changhuai and Xia Dian Si, Shui Yan Luo was under extreme pressure and had a hard time escaping.Moreover, he also knew deeply that if this continued, he would lose his life here before he could even escape the island.Shui Yan Luo gritted his teeth, and his whole body once again created several illusionary watery shadows.This time there were more watery shadows than before, a full seven or eight.Gu Changhuai and Xia Dian Si released their divine sense, their eyes full of spirit, quickly distinguishing them one by one, and very quickly found Shui Yan Luo's true body hidden among the watery shadows.Gu Changhuai's eyes revealed a sharp light, he waved his feather fan, and the Luan Feather Wind Blade suddenly rose, intending to kill Shui Yan Luo.Just at this time, the eyes of one of the watery shadows suddenly turned red, as if soaked in blood.Wronged souls struggled and wailed in its eyes.Dead killing intent spread."Not good!"Gu Changhuai's heart was alerted.Xue Sha Tongshu!He actually mixed pupil technique among the watery shadows of Shuishang Bu!This Shui Yan Luo was indeed cunning!If they wanted to distinguish the watery shadows, they had to concentrate their spirit to look at these illusions. But once they looked, they would inevitably give him an opportunity to use his pupil technique.Gu Changhuai hurriedly turned his eyes away, avoiding this pair of blood pupils.But in his haste, he still saw a little blood color out of the corner of his eye, and he was hit by a little pupil technique.Killing intent entered his brain, and Gu Changhuai's divine sense was in a trance for a while.In less than a moment, he woke up, but when he looked again, Shui Yan Luo had already escaped more than ten zhang away.Mo Hua was not affected by the pupil technique, but it didn't help much either.He threw a Shui Lao Technique, and although it hit, it wasn't very effective, still unable to leave the eel-like Shui Yan Luo.Gu Changhuai turned his head, shook Xia Dian Si's shoulder, and said with a frown:"Hey, are you awake..."Xia Dian Si was hit for the first time and was clearly not very used to these bloody death killing techniques, so her divine sense was muddled for a longer time.Gu Changhuai shook her several times, and then she woke up.After Xia Dian Si woke up, her gaze was sharp, and she didn't chatter. After exchanging a glance with Gu Changhuai, the two of them joined hands again and chased after Shui Yan Luo.Mo Hua also chased after them.But after chasing for just a few steps, Mo Hua stopped.He supported his chin, stood in a daze for a moment, and pondered: "Why am I chasing after them?"The Shui Lao Technique was useless.Small Tianxiang and Yujian were useful, but the timing was hard to grasp, and with Uncle Gu and Sister Xia, the two Golden Cores, there, they didn't lack his little killing move.Uncle Gu and Sister Xia were chasing after Shui Yan Luo. If they could catch him, then catch him.If they couldn't catch him, him going there didn't seem to help much either.Especially, outside the small island was the Yan Shui River.On land, he could still "draw ground into array".But in the water, he couldn't temporarily set up an array.And although his water affinity wasn't bad, compared to Shui Yan Luo, this ferocious water bandit, he was indeed a small witch seeing a big witch.What if, by chance, Shui Yan Luo had reinforcements outside?No matter how you looked at it, him chasing after them carried some risk, and it didn't make much sense.Since that was the case, there was no need to follow and watch the excitement.Mo Hua raised his head, looked around the four weeks, and saw the entire small island in his eyes. His heart skipped a beat.On the contrary...Shui Yan Luo had run away...Then on this island, no one could truly threaten him.Then couldn't he do as he pleased?Even if he dug this small island three feet deep, no one could stop him?Mo Hua couldn't help but be moved.If he didn't search this small island now, once the matter was settled, everything would be confiscated by the Dao Ting Si, and he wouldn't be able to search for it.Mo Hua nodded, then his eyes lit up, and he officially began to "search".At this time, the encirclement and annihilation had entered the endgame.The water bandits either died or escaped. Those who escaped would likely be left behind by the array traps set by Mo Hua, or be eaten by the water demons attracted by the disturbance.It was estimated that there was still some secret escape route on the island.But this kind of thing was probably only known to Shui Yan Luo.Mo Hua was also too lazy to bother.At least now, the water bandits on the small island were no longer to be feared.Mo Hua could let go of his hands and feet.According to the small island's geography, array layout, and his rich "searching" experience, he began to search room by room like a locust.He didn't even let go of the corners and crevices.Secret rooms and secret paths were all found out, and boxes and jars were all opened.Even the skull in the underground room left behind after someone died, he counted it to make sure there were no omissions.This group of water bandits, Shui Yan Luo and the others, didn't know how many people they had killed and how many things they had robbed. The cultivation resources accumulated on the island were really not a few.And to hide these things, quite a few secret rooms and warehouses were built on the island.Some water bandits had other intentions and left quite a few hidden compartments.But none of these could hide from Mo Hua.Mo Hua relied on his Daoized divine sense and keen perception to flip these things out one by one.Among them were large amounts of spirit stones, pills, and spirit tools, including some strange and odd evil tools.But Mo Hua didn't take these.Everyone from the Dao Ting Si fought to the death to exterminate this group of water bandits.Now Uncle Gu and Sister Xia were still chasing and killing Shui Yan Luo, and he definitely couldn't secretly take advantage behind their backs.Otherwise, he would be too sorry for everyone.Moreover, according to the rules of the Dao Ting Si, these "stolen goods" would be calculated as merit and distributed to everyone later.Mo Hua himself also had a share.Every time a piece of stolen goods was confiscated, a portion of the merit would be settled and divided into his share, so Mo Hua didn't need to steal them now.As long as he could find all the stolen goods, everyone would benefit, which was beneficial to everyone.However, there was one exception.That was array diagrams.Spirit stones and pills didn't matter, but Mo Hua had to take the array diagrams.He was an array master, so the more array diagrams, the better.And there were actually not a few array diagrams on the island.Especially in Shui Yan Luo's secret room, a large number of array diagrams were hidden.Part of them were related to the Bagua Baguan Array, involving array forms, array principles, array hub patterns, the trend of the eight gates, position changes, and so on.Compared to what Mo Hua had pondered on his own, they were quite detailed.In addition, there were various miscellaneous array diagrams.There were complex ones and simple ones, from the five elements to the eight trigrams, and some minor side door arrays, all-inclusive.It was estimated that they were all killed and robbed by Shui Yan Luo and the others.Shui Yan Luo himself didn't have a high level of array knowledge, but he should also know that arrays were good things, so he collected all these array diagrams.But this just benefited Mo Hua.Mo Hua picked and chose, leaving some simple, common, and easily understood array diagrams.The remaining complex, profound, obscure, unseen, or not too familiar array diagrams, he accepted them all.His Qiankun Dai was full.Mo Hua nodded, very satisfied.After this, he continued to search down one by one.Mo Hua found some more array diagrams and also discovered some secret rooms hidden with spirit stones and treasures, but there was one thing that made Mo Hua very strange.He still hadn't found the altar."How come there's no altar on this island?""That shouldn't be the case..."Mo Hua frowned and muttered.According to his original plan, as Shui Yan Luo, who had the title of "Zun Zhe", he must, like the Huo Fo, guard an evil god altar.The cultivators of the Yu family water stronghold were the "sacrifices" of this altar.But Shui Yan Luo was stationed on this island, and there was no sign of an altar, nor any traces of "sacrifices".This was very strange..."Where exactly is the altar?"Mo Hua couldn't figure it out. After a moment, he shook his head."Forget it, let's see if Uncle Gu and Sister Xia can catch Shui Yan Luo, and then think of a way to ask about the altar..."He continued to search room by room.He had already searched seven or eight out of ten of the entire small island, and there were not many secret rooms left.Once he finished searching, he could finish his work.But just as Mo Hua was searching a remote secret room adjacent to the water bank, he found that there were already people inside.This person was just flipping through boxes and cabinets, not knowing what he was looking for.Perceiving Mo Hua, he suddenly turned his head, his eyes revealing a fierce light. When he discovered it was Mo Hua, all these lights were restrained.A genial smile also appeared on his face, "Little... Young Master Mo, what are you doing here?"Mo Hua also had a look of doubt on his face, "Big Brother Xiao, what are you doing here?"This person's gaze flickered slightly, then he smiled and said:"The water bandits are cunning, I came to see if there are any fish that slipped through the net..."Mo Hua nodded."And you? What are you doing here?" This person's gaze narrowed, and he asked.Mo Hua then brought up Gu Changhuai, "Uncle Gu asked me to search and see if the water bandits on the island hid any stolen goods."After finishing, Mo Hua vigilantly looked around the four weeks and asked a little nervously:"Are there any ferocious water bandits here?""No...""That's good..." Mo Hua clearly breathed a sigh of relief.The room was silent for a moment, then that person said:"I've checked everything, it's very safe here. You can search again and see, maybe you can find some stolen goods. I still have things to do, so I won't accompany you for now."Mo Hua also smiled and said: "Okay, thank you, Big Brother Xiao."The person in the secret room smiled genially at Mo Hua, then got up and left.After this person left, the smile on the corner of Mo Hua's mouth gradually faded, and his face revealed a meaningful expression.Xiao Tian Quan...What was he doing in this secret room?What was he... looking for?Mo Hua frowned slightly, looked around, and found that this was just a simple secret room, clean but empty, and could be seen through at a glance.He released his divine sense, but didn't perceive anything.Mo Hua pondered for a moment, then left the secret room.Just as he left the secret room, Mo Hua looked up and found Xiao Tian Quan not far away.Xiao Tian Quan didn't seem to have walked far.Or, he pretended to walk to a distant place, but actually didn't leave.Seeing Mo Hua come out, Xiao Tian Quan pretended to be a little surprised, and smiled: "Young Master Mo, didn't you find anything?"Mo Hua shook his head, "There's nothing, it's too poor. I'll go to other places to take a look."Xiao Tian Quan nodded and said: "Okay, pay attention to safety, be careful of water bandits.""Mm!"Mo Hua nodded, then left.After Mo Hua left, Xiao Tian Quan was expressionless, silently watching Mo Hua's back, his gaze obscure, constantly changing.And Mo Hua walked as if nothing had happened, but he could vaguely perceive a chilling intent piercing from behind.This was killing intent."This Xiao Tian Quan has moved a killing thought. He wants to kill me..."Mo Hua's gaze was slightly cold.But it was only killing intent, Xiao Tian Quan didn't truly make a move.Behind Mo Hua stood Gu Changhuai, and for some reason, he actually had a good relationship with Xia Dian Si, who had come down with the Dao Ting.Xiao Tian Quan's gaze was apprehensive, he silently hid his thoughts, a shallow smile reappeared on his face, and he turned to go in another direction.Only when he passed by the corpse of a dead water bandit, he took out his long sword and stabbed the corpse several more times. Seeing the flesh and blood blurred and blood flowing all over the ground, his heart calmed down, and he withdrew his hand.
