After Nie Xuan left the palace, he went straight to the beach. From a distance, he saw a group of people gathering there. When he was approaching, Nie Xuan slowed down and walked slowly over. Someone with sharp eyes spotted him and hurriedly He whispered: "The island owner is here!"
The crowd automatically made way for Nie Xuan. When Nie Xuan walked in, he saw Jiang Tong talking to a middle-aged man who looked a bit like an immortal. People confront each other.
Jiang Tong had his usual expressionless face, but the middle-aged man had an angry face and a arrogant attitude. It was obvious that he didn't take Jiang Tong seriously at all.
With his keen eyes, Nie Xuan saw that this middle-aged man had a late-stage cultivation of inner alchemy, which could be said to be on par with Jiang Tong. No wonder Jiang Tong dared to confront him without fear, obviously he was confident in his heart.
When the middle-aged man saw Nie Xuan approaching, there was a trace of doubt on his face, but he still looked arrogant and said: "You are the new island owner of the Thirteen Demonic Islands! What is your name? Don't you know the rules?"
Nie Xuan faced him. He walked up to the middle-aged man with a smile: "My name is Nie Xuan. I have just become the owner of this island. I am not very clear about the big and small matters. Please forgive me for any negligence!"
Nie Xuan's attitude made everyone around him feel sincerely. He breathed a sigh of relief, especially the guard who called Nie Xuan just now. He thought that Nie Xuan was just trying to be tough, and he was not polite when he really saw the messenger.
The middle-aged man seemed to be quite satisfied with Nie Xuan's attitude. He nodded and said: "I don't care which of you is the island owner, but the materials that should be turned in every year must not be less. Nie Xuan, since you are the island owner, there is no unnecessary nonsense. I won't say anything anymore. I am only responsible for collecting supplies for our island owner. If you entertain me well, I will naturally say something nice for you in front of the island owner. Otherwise, humph, I think the consequences will be very serious for you. clear!"
Everyone on Yaoxie Island is willing to take up the position of envoy, because it is really a fat job. As long as you go to other islands and hold the title of envoy of Yaoxie Island, then you are grandpa, and anyone on the island will look at you. You are polite, you are treated like an ancestor, and you are treated with delicious food and drink. There are other additional "harvests", so the envoys who go to each island are different every year, which is why this envoy does not know Jiang Copper is the last island owner.
Listening to the other party's almost naked threat, the smile on Nie Xuan's face became even more enthusiastic: "Messenger, don't be angry. The brother below is ignorant and has not treated you well. I will apologize to you on his behalf." As he
spoke, Nie Xuan bent down to face the messenger, but before he had bent halfway, everyone only saw a flash of black lightning. Nie Xuan had straightened his body again, and the warm smile on his face turned into Sneered and looked at the messenger in front of him.
At this time, an expression of astonishment appeared on the messenger's face, but before the expression completely disappeared, a blood arrow suddenly spurted out from his lower abdomen, and then he fell forward, and there was no sound for an instant.
The onlookers, even Jiang Tong, were stunned. After a moment, they suddenly came to their senses and realized that Nie Xuan actually killed the envoy from the island!
Suddenly, everyone was like a nest exploded, with all kinds of screams, exclamations, and anger, and they were in chaos. Only Jiang Tong had a trace of pleasure and admiration on his face!
The reason why everyone was upset was very simple. Killing the envoy of the island meant rebellion against the island, and what awaited them would be the crazy and terrifying revenge of the island. For these people, although in ten In the area of three islands, you can run rampant and dominate, but in front of one island, you have no ability to resist. What's more, there are eleven large islands under one island. With thirteen islands, you can resist ten. Two big islands, are there any consequences?
When Nie Xuan's cold eyes swept across everyone's faces one by one, everyone suddenly felt a chill in their hearts, and they couldn't help but close their mouths, not daring to make any more noise.
Nie Xuan said coldly: "I just killed a mere envoy from an island, and you are so scared? Then if one day I kill the owner of an island, you will not be scared to death?"
After saying these words, Nie Xuan turned around and left. After Jiang Tong looked around at everyone, he also left expressionlessly, leaving only a group of people standing there like wood.
It was not until Nie Xuan and Jiang Tong had returned to the palace that everyone gradually calmed down and started talking among themselves.
"Did you just hear what the new island owner said? He said he wanted to kill the owner of an island?" "I
heard it. I think our new island owner must be crazy. Who can kill the owner of an island? No. , I have to find a way to get out of here quickly."
"If you want to leave, you can leave. I think the new island owner is not crazy, but very confident. Haven't you seen that the cultivation level of this envoy from the island is definitely not low? , but I didn't see clearly how the island owner killed him, and the terrifying evil spirit emanating from the island owner last time, so I think the island owner really wanted to kill the island owner. , and it can definitely be done."
"Yes, yes, especially Lian Jiangtong Island Master's attitude towards the envoy this time. Whenever the envoy came before, he was not always respectful, but now he dares to challenge the envoy. Obviously It's because the new island owner is supporting him, so the new island owner is definitely powerful!"
"Well, I think so too. Anyway, in this damn place, with the skills of people like us, we are always doing odd jobs for people wherever we go. , it is better to stay and hang out with the new island owner. Maybe one day we can land on an island, and then we will be very successful!" "
I think you are all crazy, if you don't leave, I will leave!"
All of a sudden , everyone on the island spontaneously formed two opinions, one wanted to leave here quickly, and the other was naturally willing to stay.
Just when everyone was quarreling, suddenly two more rays of light flashed in the sky, and then a person appeared in front of everyone, a big man with long hair on his face.
Seeing another person coming, these people immediately stopped arguing, and they soon discovered that this big man's cultivation level was not very high, he was only in the middle stage of inner alchemy, and was not even as good as some of them, so some people were immediately filled with disdain. He said: "Where did this little monster come from? It actually came to our Evil Thirteen Islands!"
The long-faced man was naturally Hou Guan. After receiving Nie Xuan's order from Hong Feng, he immediately set off and finally arrived here non-stop.
Listening to the tone of these people, a trace of anger flashed across Hou Guan's face, but he restrained himself and said word for word: "My name is Hou Guan, come to see my master, Nie Xuan!"
As soon as he heard the other party's announcement Nie Xuan's name was revealed, and he was actually the master of the big man. Everyone looked at each other in shock. After standing there for a moment, the wise man hurriedly changed his attitude: "It turns out he is one of our own. Come to the island. I will report to the island owner now." Then he took Hou Guan and walked to the palace.
At this time, Nie Xuan had just returned to the palace. Just as Jiang Tong wanted to go back to his own residence to practice, Nie Xuan stopped him and asked him to follow him. Before the two of them reached the room where various cultivation materials were hidden , Nie Xuan's mind suddenly moved, and he felt Hou Guan's arrival.
Although he knew that this should be because Hou Guan and himself signed a contract of elixir, what surprised him was how Hou Guan came so quickly!
Suddenly Nie Xuan felt something was wrong, and hurriedly asked Jiang Tong behind him: "How long have I been the island master?"
"Twenty-one days!"
Nie Xuan couldn't help but be stunned. It turned out that after entering the formation, The process of absorbing spiritual energy has already passed twenty-one days, but I didn't feel anything at all.
Shaking his head, Nie Xuan turned around and said: "The new island owner is here. Come with me to meet him. You can tell him about the situation on the island!" So the
two of them turned around and walked out again. At the gate of the palace, he met a guard who was about to report. Nie Xuan nodded and said, "Let him come in!" before the other person could speak. The
guard was stunned for a moment, obviously wondering how Nie Xuan knew someone was coming to him. , but naturally he didn't dare to ask, and hurriedly turned around and went out to bring people. However, he was the one who was willing to stay just now, so now he has a little more confidence in Nie Xuan, and his determination to stay is even stronger.
When Hou Guan saw Nie Xuan, he naturally bowed his head and bowed. Nie Xuan motioned for him to stand up and speak, and then the three of them walked into the main hall.
Nie Xuan first asked about the situation on Monkey Island. After learning that nothing happened, he introduced him and Jiang Tong to each other, and then directly entered the topic: "Hou Guan, the purpose of letting you come this time is Let you be the owner of the Thirteen Islands."
This sentence immediately shocked Hou Guan. Although Hongfeng went back, he told him that Nie Xuan occupied the Thirteen Islands and asked him to rush there immediately, but he I never thought that I would be the owner of the island!
The owner of the Thirteen Demonic Islands is incomparable to the original owner of Monkey Island. However, it has only been only a month and a half since he lost his position as the owner of Monkey Island. The island owner of the Thirteen Demonic Islands, such a huge contrast, made him unable to believe it for a moment.
"Hou Guan, I have other things to do, and Jiang Copper is not willing to be the owner of the island. The most suitable candidate for me is you. I have no other requirements for you. I just hope that you can manage the Thirteen Islands." Okay, let it develop and grow as quickly as possible. If you need anything, just ask me and I will find a way to solve it."
Hou Guan stood up quickly and said excitedly: "Boss, I will definitely live up to you. expectations."
"Okay! Jiang Tong, now you can tell him everything about the island. After that, I will let other people on the island meet their new island owner!"
Nie Xuan said to Hou Guan again: "Jiang Tong doesn't like to talk, you have some patience!"
After saying that, Nie Xuan turned around and walked towards the depths of the palace. He had not had time to see what his current cultivation level had been since he absorbed the spiritual energy in the formation. What a situation, what kind of changes have happened to me!
Soon he arrived in the room. Nie Xuan closed the door and ignored the cultivation materials in the room. He sat down cross-legged and looked into his body.
"Huh? What's going on!" Nie Xuan said to himself with a surprised expression on his face.
After absorbing significantly more spiritual energy than what was in the Monkey Island Confusion Array, Nie Xuan's four souls now not only failed to evolve, but instead degenerated!
Could it be that after absorbing so much spiritual energy, my cultivation level has declined instead of advancing?
