"Fawning!"
Just as he was about to eat, a violent sound suddenly rang out in his ears, and all those eating here turned their heads in the direction from which the sound had come.
There, a young man in his early thirties, with a beard, fell into a pool of blood, his eyes wide as he still had his last breath. His eyes were terrified, as if he could not believe what was happening.
He lay struggling on the ground for a moment before his body went limp and his hands, which had been trying with all their might to seek help, fell to the ground.
However, after he died, nothing seemed to affect anyone, and everyone ate and drank as if what had died before them was not a man at all, but a mouse.
"See, this is probably someone who offended someone and was groped to come here for the auction. Moved to kill." Guo Lintian smashed his mouth and turned back to the hot soup in front of him after he finished speaking, but he couldn't drink it.
"It's a good place to do the killing." Chen Ge's face did not change.
Auctions weren't peaceful, of course they were. And only auctions that were confined within China, leaving China, South Vietnam in Southeast Asia, Northern Myanmar and other countries were so chaotic that human life was simply that worthless, let alone in the eyes of such cultivators who were used to seeing blood and death.
The man was lying there in a pool of blood, and only those who passed by would give a sideways glance.
After a short while, a few young men in grey robes appeared and they walked right up to the place, lifted the dead cultivator and headed for the coast.
Everything happened so quickly that no one knew what had happened here, except for the puddle of blood on the ground.
After eating, it was already dark.
Chen Ge told both Guo Lintian and Bai Xiaofei to go back and take a look around the island itself.
Bai Xiaofei had proposed to follow, but was sternly refused by Chen Ge. The fact that someone had been killed in the course of a meal was proof enough of how chaotic the island was, and it was safest to stay in the room than to follow him.
Besides, with Bai Xiaofei's strength, there was hardly any difference between him and a baby here.
After washing up, Chen Ge took out an unopened packet of cigarettes from his bag and put it in his pocket, then prepared to leave.
But before he could walk out the door. He was stopped by an old woman sitting at the door.
The old woman was about eighty years old and looked very thin, sitting curled up in the doorway on a mat. One would have thought it was a small child.
"What are you going out to do?" The old woman called out to Chen Ge and asked.
"Nothing, I'm new here, I'm going to go out and look around, the room is too stuffy for my liking." Chen Ge stopped, lit a cigarette and shrugged his shoulders and said.
"Since you're new here. Then I feel the need to remind you that it's best to stay honestly inside your room at night, the outside is not as calm as the daytime, maybe you just go out. You might get killed by mistake."
"See that puddle of blood not far away, a young lad in his early thirties, killed just an hour ago and now thrown into the sea, I think." The old crone said hoarsely as she stretched out her dry arm and pointed to the blood that had dried up and dried out on the road.
"I've seen it with my own eyes." Chen Ge glanced back and said.
"Not bad strength, but still a bit weak here." The old crone looked up and sized up Chen Ge.
"Elder. I'm just going out for a spin, it's not like I'm offending anyone, there shouldn't be any danger, right?" Chen Ge saw the old crone's pair of eyes.
At her age, her eyes should be cloudy and lightless, but the old crone's eyes in front of her were unusually spirited, as if they were like those of a young man.
"Those who don't listen to advice seem to have been fed to the sharks in the sea water." Seeing Chen Ge's insistence on going out, the old man turned his head sideways and stopped looking. Instead, he murmured in a low voice.
"Thank you for your concern, senior." Chen Ge arched his hand at her and left with quick steps.
"Tsk, the Power of the Nine Revolutions of the Yuan Shen, it seems to be the one father was talking about. I didn't expect it to be in a young man's possession, if he has some big power behind him, that would be troublesome."
When Chen Ge disappeared around the corner, the old crone suddenly straightened up.
Only to see that she was not hunchbacked at all. Although her body shape was still so slim, her back was very straight and even her voice had become a little lighter.
Chen Ge did not know about this, he just thought that the old crone was reminding himself out of kindness, seeing that his cultivation level was not high, not to walk around freely.
But Chen Ge did not care about that, although there were hidden dragons and tigers on this island, no one could stop him if he wanted to run.
As he walked along the street, he could almost smell the faint salty smell from the sea as he walked along the road, and the slight sea breeze blew on his body. It made the lower corners of Chen Ge's jacket sway.
"Hmm?"
After not walking for a while, Chen Ge suddenly stopped in his tracks and frowned slightly.
In his perception, two true qi fluctuations of about the same intensity as his own suddenly appeared ahead of him.
Out of curiosity, Chen Ge withdrew his true qi into his body and slowly walked ahead.
Since he wanted to find out the secrets of the island, he could not just go back when he came across something.
As he walked ahead, he could see that apart from the ancient buildings that could be found here. As far as the eye could see, most of the land was deserted, and the island was bigger than Chen Ge had thought.
Chen Ge hid sideways behind a large tree and looked at the situation not far away.
In the clearing, there were several people facing each other, and the true qi Chen Ge had just sensed was spreading out from their bodies.
"It's really not safe." Chen Ge raised his eyebrows, extinguished the cigarette in his hand, and muttered to himself.
There were six people in front of him, three on one side, and the one standing at the front of each. The one standing at the front of each had a cultivation level similar to his own, so if a clash really occurred, Chen Ge did not dare to guarantee that he alone would be a match for all six of them.
Just as Chen Ge was pondering, the six men suddenly rushed together, followed by a violent exchange of blows, a strong wave of true qi spread out, and the light that would occasionally appear illuminated the place as if it was daylight.
The battle lasted only about ten minutes. The winner was soon decided.
Only one of the three who lost seemed to be alive, kneeling on the ground dying, while the other side had won but had obviously paid for a number of injuries. Instead of rushing to their deaths, the three men immediately left and disappeared into the night.
Chen Ge smashed his mouth.
Although these people had good cultivation levels, their combat experience was simply too little. If he were to face the six of them, Chen Ge was confident that he could fight to a draw and not lose.
Bypassing the area, Chen Ge continued to walk ahead.
