Fresh blood was bursting out from Dugu Fengwu’s chest.

“Ahhh…” Dugu Fengwu instantly revealed out a furious yell that sounded like she refused to accept her fate.

“Heavens, why are you doing this to me? Why at this moment?” Dugu Fengwu questioned with wrath.

Yang Dingtian was shocked to see this development and didn’t know why things turn out like this.

He, who should have been smashed into smithereens, was actually unscathed. Dugu Fengwu, who should be unscathed, had been pierced in her chest.

“Yang Dingtian, you win. Even the heavens are helping you.” Dugu Fengwu suddenly laughed with a mournful tone. “Since you tainted my chastity, my entire body went through a transformation. There would be certain moments where my body would be void of any mystic qi. It might last from two hours to even an entire day. Right now, my mystic qi has completely vanished, and I am a harmless individual. So, you can now kill me effortlessly.”

So that was what happened, and it seemed like the heavens were really helping Yang Dingtian. This absolutely powerful demon woman actually turned into the world’s most delicate woman. But what did this have to do with him? Perhaps it was because she went berserk during her cultivation in the Blood Pool.

“Do it then.” Dugu Fengwu perked up her beautiful face and said, “Don’t even think that I will beg for mercy. If you don’t kill me, I will still severe you into pieces and turn you into ashes, after I regain my mystic qi.”

Yang Dingtian looked at the pale looking Dugu Fengwu and at her wound, which was constantly flowing with blood.

Right now was indeed the perfect moment to kill this demon woman. If he missed this chance, he might not have any more opportunities in the future.

After abruptly drawing out the sharp sword, the flow of the blood increased and immediately drenched Dugu Fengwu’s entire upper body.

“I won’t kill you,” Yang Dingtian said.

“But, I won’t save you either.” Yang Dingtian said in a cold voice, “Because you are not worth saving. Go, beg for a miracle.”

Finishing his statement, Yang Dingtian immediately ran out.

**************

“Come out! The people inside better come out now, or I will kill these women!” Before Yang Dingtian could run out of the cabin, a voice interrupted him.

Yang Dingtian was startled. What was happening outside? He instantly went out.

Once he got out, he saw a curved saber placed on Ning Rou’er’s neck and a pirate behind her.

Right now, outside the cabins, there were more than a hundred pirates who were wielding various weapons and had taken control of the entire ship.

On the deck, there were more than a dozen corpses of people who tried to resist. On the surface of the sea, there were a few dozen pirate boats that had used their metal hooks to restrain the ship.

Pirates were actually plundering this ship.

Those people that Dugu Fengwu had instantly killed were all pirates as well.

Seeing more than ten of their comrades instantly turning into corpses, this group of pirate assumed that there was a martial expert in the cabin and were panic-stricken. They didn’t dare to act recklessly, and when they saw Ning Rou’er and her daughter coming out from the cabin, they immediately took them as hostages.

Seeing Yang Dingtian exiting the cabin, Ning Rou’er’s concerned expression relaxed as she revealed a helpless smile at him.

She had just been held hostage by Dugu Fengwu, and she was now being held hostage by pirates.

“Who are you?” Yang Dingtian spoke in an indifferent voice.

The instant Yang Dingtian walked out, all the pirates were startled as they took a few steps back.

It was apparent that they thought Yang Dingtian was the martial expert who instantly killed over a dozen of their comrades. When they saw him walking out, they were instantly frightened and turned stiff.

“We, we are the Cloud Heaven City’s Black Blood Cavalry. Our commander is Ximen Lie, and our Lord is Yang Dingtian!” That pirate which held Ning Rou’er hostage was shivering as he answered.

Yang Dingtian was instantly furious.

This group of bastards was actually impersonating the Black Blood Cavalry. No wonder Yang Dingtian heard those people on the ship mentioning that Ximen Lie was leading the Black Blood Cavalry as pirates. So this was what happened.

It was obvious that this group of pirates was receiving orders from Ximen Ju and the others in Cloud Heaven City. They asked them to impersonate the Black Blood Cavalry to kill and plunder, which would ruin Yang Dingtian and Ximen Lie’s reputation. They didn’t want Ximen Lie and the brothers from the Black Blood Cavalry to have any place where they could establish themselves.

Ximen Ju’s methods were vicious and completely unfair.

“Let them go, and I won’t kill you,” Yang Dingtian said in a dull tone.

“No…” That pirate was shivering as he said, “As long as I let go of your wife and daughter, you will surely kill all of us. I know that is going to happen.”

“Then what do you want?” Yang Dingtian spoke in a furious voice.

“Get your wife and daughter to escort us. When we feel that we are sufficiently safe, we will release them back,” that pirate proposed.

Yang Dingtian saw that the pirates were looking at Ning Rou’er with wolf-like eyes. If such a beauty like Ning Rou’er were to fall into their pirate’s lair, the consequences would be devastating. She would surely end up with a miserable fate and would rather be dead.

“How about this? I will go with you.” Ning Rou’er turned to speak with the pirate, “But you have to give my daughter back to my husband.”

The pirate looked at the pink jade-like little Ning Ning and immediately replied with avaricious eyes, “No way. Who knows what kind of schemes you are up to!”

Ning Rou’er said, “If you don’t agree. I will immediately kill myself, and my husband will then start the massacre. Let’s see if you will be able to survive?”

She spoke firmly, but her voice was still extremely gentle.

The pirate was astonished. If that were to happen, it would truly be a tragedy.

“Okay, I agree. But don’t you try any tricks; otherwise, I will immediately cut off your beautiful head,” the pirate warned with a sinister voice.

Ning Rou’er immediately let go out little Ning Ning and whispered, “Be a good girl and go look for father.”

Immediately after, Ning Rou’er spoke to Yang Dingtian, “This child’s father, please take good care of our daughter.”

Little Ning Ning hugged tightly on her mother’s neck and cried, “I’m not going, I’m not going. I want to be with my mother.”

Ning Rou’er immediately bent over her delicate body and coaxed little Ning Ning.

Seeing her tempting figure, the pirate revealed lustful eyes. He didn’t bother about anything else and extended his dirty hands, which were about to touch Ning Rou’er.

“Lie down…!” Yang Dingtian yelled out.

Afterward, Yang Dingtian rushed out with lightning speed and abruptly thrust his sharp sword at that captivated pirate.

When Ning Rou’er heard Yang Dingtian, she didn’t even bother about the sharp blade on her neck and quickly hugged little Ning Ning and lied down.

“Swish…” Yang Dingtian’s sword slashed across.

That captivated pirate suddenly got a shock and instantly regained his senses. He was frightened stiff and burst several steps in retreat.

His face was instantly slashed by Yang Dingtian’s sword, leaving behind a bone-deep wound. When thinking about how powerful Yang Dingtian was, he instantly forgot everything and lowered his head while desperately trying to run.

This pirate boss was not weak at all and was actually more than ten classes superior to Yang Dingtian. But right now, he treated Yang Dingtian as a martial expert, and when he saw Yang Dingtian slashing at him, his first thought was to flee.

Subsequently, all the other pirates started to flee as well.

After Yang Dingtian missed his first strike, he quickly rolled on the ground and carried Ning Rou’er and little Ning Ning. He didn’t even pause for a moment and swiftly turned to escape.

At this moment, more than a hundred pirates were trying to flee, and so was Yang Dingtian.

In the blink of the eye, Yang Dingtian carried Ning Rou’er and little Ning Ning, and instantly dashed into the cabin. He then opened up a giant hole in the wall before jumping out into the sea.

After the pirates ran for a quite a few of distance, they turned around to see if Yang Dingtian were chasing after them. But they realized that Yang Dingtian was also running.

“Boss, that guy is a fake and not a real expert. He is running too!” That pirate exclaimed.

When that pirate boss heard it, he immediately turned around to see that Yang Dingtian was fleeing rapidly with the mother and daughter. He was even running faster than them and had already jumped into the sea.

In an instant, the pirate boss recalled when Yang Dingtian thrust his sword at them and realized that that sword didn’t have the strength of a martial expert. But he was merely frightened stiff and didn’t care about those minor details. Now that he thought about it, that beauty’s husband was indeed not any great martial expert.

“What the! Acting like a tiger to scare a pig! He fooled us!” That pirate boss smacked his head and yelled out, “Chase after them! I want to tear that man into pieces and eat him up. Bring that beautiful woman back as well.”

“Understood!” The pirates quickly turned around and chased after Yang Dingtian.

Some of the pirates immediately dove into the sea and gave chase.

“Haha…” The pirate boss laughed heartily and said, “Compete against pirates in swimming? In your dreams! If we let you escape in the sea, I will chop off my head and give it to you.”

In an instant, more than a hundred pirates dove into the sea like dumplings into a wok. They then quickly surrounded Yang Dingtian.

They were pirates for sure, as they swam like a fish in the sea. They were swimming at extreme speed and were about to catch up to Yang Dingtian.

Yang Dingtian used one arm to carry Ning Rou’er and her daughter, while his other hand was paddling in the water. But his speed wasn’t as fast as those pirates.

“Let go of us and escape yourself,” Ning Rou’er said.

“Stop spouting nonsense,” Yang Dingtian replied.

“We are strangers who just met you, you don’t have to die for us,” Ning Rou’er spoke resolutely.

“Don’t worry. I have a plan.” Yang Dingtian said, “Lady Ning, hug onto me.”

Ning Rou’er couldn’t understand, but she used one arm to hugged onto Yang Dingtian’s waist, while she used her other arm to carry little Ning Ning.

Yang Dingtian had spared out both his hands and took out an elixir in his spatial ring, the Water Separation Elixir!

After consuming this elixir, the body would immediately surge with energy that would push the water at the front away, resulting in the user being able to travel in water without resistance.

As expected, after consuming the Water Separation Elixir, Yang Dingtian used both his arms to carry Ning Rou’er and little Ning Ning. He was traveling through the water at a rapid speed while all the seawater at the front was being pushed away, making it seem as though Yang Dingtian was running in water.

It took just a split moment for Yang Dingtian to leave those pirates behind.

*******************

On the ship, just as the pirate boss was about to give chase as well…

“Boss, look…” One of the pirates pointed at the corner of the cabin and stood there dumbstruck.

The pirate boss turned around and was instantly dumbstruck as well.

Today was truly a wicked day. He had just witnessed a mesmerizing woman earlier, and now there was another one. She was so captivating that one would feel as though their spirit soul was scattering.

The woman they saw was obviously Dugu Fengwu.

Right now, half of Dugu Fengwu’s body was dyed red by fresh blood, and her absolutely beautiful face didn’t have any color of blood. But all these made her look even more beautiful as she had lost that threatening aura.

When the pirate boss saw Dugu Fengwu, he tossed aside everything in his mind and only had a single thought.

“I am going to make her mine…”

In an instant, that pirate boss crouched down with a dazed expression as he extended his hand to touch Dugu Fengwu’s face.

When Dugu Fengwu saw this crazed pirate boss, she desperately tried to circulate her mystic qi as she wanted to smash him into smithereens. But, she realized that she didn’t even have a hint of mystic qi. She couldn’t even lift her arms.

“I have killed countless people in this lifetime. I shall die here in this place…” Dugu Fengwu said to herself as she had this flash of determination in her beautiful eyes.

Using her last bit of strength, she took out a blood-red elixir and put it into her mouth.

“Bloodthirsty Devil Split Ritual!”

Dugu Fengwu’s body instantly grew redder and redder.

That pirate boss’ hand came closer and closer to her face.

The Bloodthirsty Devil Split Ritual would cause her body and this pirate boss in front of her to explode into pieces.

This was Dugu Fengwu’s final frenzy!

************

“That Young Lady, that Young Lady is still on the ship…” Ning Rou’er suddenly said, “Those pirates are going to humiliate her…”

Yang Dingtian immediately turned back to look and saw that the pirate boss was about to pounce at Dugu Fengwu.

“That vicious demon woman deserves to die,” Yang Dingtian commented and ignored her.

“But, but she doesn’t deserve to die like this,” Ning Rou’er stated.
