Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity

Chapter 548 Identity Exposed

The next day, a large number of pirates gathered in the square in the center of the island to watch the spectacle.

Li Lie stood quietly among the crowd, arms crossed and eyes closed.

Many people pointed and whispered, all looking on with amusement.

Last night, news of Lu Sandao's challenge to Li Lie had already spread. Therefore, this morning, as the time of the duel approached, many people gathered early to watch.

"That Lu Sandao really doesn't know what's good for him."

"He actually dared to fight Li Lie. He must be tired of living."

"Could it be that Lu Sandao has recently had some kind of fortuitous encounter that has caused his strength to increase so dramatically?"

Suddenly, a commotion arose from the back of the crowd, and then a path was cleared.

Yu Changsheng and Lu Sandao walked side by side into the arena.

Upon seeing Lu Sandao, Li Lie was instantly enraged. "Lu Sandao, how dare you challenge me to a duel! Today, I'll make sure you die a horrible death!"

Lu Sandao grinned and said, "Who said it was a one-on-one fight between me and you?"

"The person who challenged you to a one-on-one fight is him!"

As Lu Sandao stepped aside, all eyes turned to Yu Changsheng.

"So that's why Lu Sandao dared to challenge Li Lie. It turns out he wasn't the one who made the move."

"I've never seen this person before. Could he be one of Lu Sandao's newly recruited crew members?"

"This person must be quite strong to dare to fight Li Lie."

Li Lie's face tightened. No wonder Lu Sandao dared to challenge him; it turned out that someone else had made the move.

At this moment, Li Lie also realized that he had been tricked by Lu Sandao, and his eyes were almost murderous.

"Lu Sandao, what a two-faced scoundrel! I wondered where you got the guts to challenge me. Turns out you're too cowardly to fight yourself and send others to their deaths."

Lu Sandao sneered, "Going to their deaths? It's not even certain who's going to their death yet!"

"To tell you the truth, this is the person I hired to solve your problem. Do you dare to fight?"

"I'm not afraid of you!"

Li Lie immediately shot into the air and arrived at the outer edge of the island.

Lu Sandao and Yu Changsheng followed closely behind, and the other pirates who were watching the spectacle naturally followed, flocking to the outer edge of the island to watch.

Soon the sea was crowded with people, but they kept a safe distance from Yu Changsheng and his group.

Lu Sandao sneered, "Li Lie, our feud is settled today."

Li Lie's gaze hardened. "Enough talk, kill!"

In an instant, the surrounding air seemed to freeze, and the Purple Mansion Gate appeared behind Li Lie.

An immense aura emanated from behind him, revealing his terrifying cultivation level at the late stage of the Purple Mansion realm.

Li Lie was indeed a powerful cultivator in the late stage of the Purple Mansion realm, which made Lu Sandao nervous as well.

Yu Changsheng was not to be outdone. His Purple Mansion behind him also condensed, continuously gathering Qi and blood into his physical body.

His cultivation aura was also quite strong, reaching the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion realm, slightly inferior to Li Lie.

Many people were taken aback when they sensed this aura.

"This person, only at the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion realm, dares to challenge Li Lie?"

"I think he's the one who's getting impatient, isn't he?"

"Lu Sandao is such an idiot. He didn't even bother to find a more capable helper. He only managed to bring in a mid-stage Purple Mansion cultivator."

Seeing this, Li Lie was even more enraged. How dare a mere mid-stage Purple Mansion cultivator be so arrogant in front of him? He was about to kill Yu Changsheng.

But in the next second.

Streaks of light emerged from behind Yu Changsheng, and a terrifying aura instantly filled the entire sea surface.

The three summoned beasts—the Crimson Hell Dragon, the Colorful Star Deer, and the Golden-Winged Roc—appeared simultaneously, circling around Yu Changsheng.

Now, all three beasts have reached the late stage of the fourth tier, which is enough to reach the strength of a late stage Purple Mansion expert!

At this moment, everyone understood what Yu Changsheng's true source of confidence was.

Lu Sandao was also startled, although he knew that Yu Changsheng's strength was extraordinary, far exceeding that of a normal mid-stage Purple Mansion cultivator.

After all, I had personally experienced it last time, but seeing it today, I realized that Yu Changsheng was not at his full strength that day!

Yu Changsheng's true strength lies in these beast taming techniques!

Moreover, the aura of each of the tamed beasts was at the late fourth-tier level, which made them even more terrifying.

Although it was a one-on-one fight, no one said anything when Yu Changsheng used his beast-taming ability to fight.

After all, taming beasts is a reflection of one's own strength. There are even sects that specialize in taming beasts. How many beasts you can control is also a matter of your own ability.

Li Lie's previously unrestrained expression turned serious.

If he were only facing Yu Changsheng, he would be confident that he could easily win. But now, facing four people with the strength of the Purple Mansion level attacking him together, even he, with his late-stage Purple Mansion strength, would struggle.

Yu Changsheng was unwilling to wait any longer and immediately launched an attack.

The Golden-Winged Roc flapped its enormous wings, and thunder immediately roared around it. Countless bolts of lightning gathered together and coiled towards Li Lie.

The Crimson Dragon also activated its domain, releasing a series of soul-shaking auras that suppressed Li Lie's movements while simultaneously charging forward itself.

The colorful deer radiated strange colors, its antlers constantly rippled, and countless green vines intertwined to form a vast net that covered Li Lie.

With the help of the three beast tamers, almost all of Li Lie's paths were blocked, leaving him no chance of escape.

Li Lie gritted his teeth, crossed his fists over his chest, and began to supply the power gathered at the Purple Mansion Gate behind him.

Lightning flashed, turning the sea surface into a purple expanse. A powerful thunderstorm erupted, blasting a vacuum zone into the sea.

As the seawater surged back and the torrents roared, Li Lie rushed toward Yu Changsheng at an incredible speed.

His goal was to attack Yu Changsheng's main body; only then would he have a chance to win.

But the other beasts wouldn't give him that chance. The Rainbow Star Deer's net had already covered him and was tightening its grip.

Under the cover of a giant net woven from countless vines, the net kept shrinking, giving Li Lie no chance to escape.

Seeing that the surrounding space was getting smaller and smaller, Li Lie roared and condensed a terrifying crescent moon, slashing at a vine.

The crescent moon emitted an extremely sharp aura, almost capable of severing everything.

Even the vines of the Rainbow Star Deer were instantly severed, but countless vines quickly filled the gap, almost endlessly.

Although that crescent moon was incredibly powerful, it was ultimately limited and was eventually worn away completely.

The Crimson Hell Dragon opened its massive jaws, unleashing a burst of dragon might that pierced through countless vines and struck Li Lie directly.

Amidst towering waves, Li Lie plummeted downwards. His three summoned beasts—the Colorful Star Deer, the Golden-Winged Roc, and the Crimson Hellfire Dragon—joined forces once more to launch an attack, suppressing Li Lie.

A powerful True Monarch in the late stage of the Purple Mansion realm was suppressed to the point that he could barely exchange blows.

Many of the pirates watching from the sidelines were also pale-faced, which gives you an idea of ​​how desperate Li Lie must be at this moment.

Under the relentless attacks and encirclement, no matter how strong he was, he could hardly use his abilities.

What was most frightening was that Yu Changsheng hadn't moved an inch from beginning to end. He stood quietly and proudly in mid-air, looking down on everything and controlling everything.

Only Lu Sandao knew that Yu Changsheng's true strength was only greater than these three beasts.

If Yu Changsheng were to make a move, Li Lie would have no chance of resisting.

He became even more wary and fearful of Yu Changsheng, secretly warning himself never to provoke this incredibly powerful guy.

On the sea, Li Lie appeared in a disheveled state, his clothes tattered and torn.

However, the powerful physical body of the Purple Mansion True Monarch meant that such an attack would not be fatal.

Just as Li Lie was about to continue his attack, a voice suddenly stopped him.

A figure suddenly appeared in the distance, its face obscured.

"Stop, Li Lie."

Upon seeing that person, Li Lie was furious, but dared not resist in any way and could only give up.

The man continued, "According to the rules of the pirate stronghold, the loser must give up a treasure in exchange for their life."

"Li Lie, give this brother something of yours as compensation."

Li Lie was naturally unconvinced; this was nothing, he hadn't even used his full strength. But the dark figure suddenly unleashed an aura that immediately suppressed Li Lie's thoughts.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

"Hurry up, or you'll tarnish the reputation of our Thunder Hunter Pirates."

Li Lie gritted his teeth, about to rummage in his robes, when he suddenly pointed at Yu Changsheng and roared:

"I know the rules of the pirate stronghold, but there's one thing you don't know, boss."

"This man is not a pirate at all! Even the people on Lu Sandao's ship are not pirates!"

"What?"

These words immediately caused an uproar; outsiders had actually come to this island!

Many people immediately became wary of Yu Changsheng and his group, and some even drew their weapons.

Many Purple Mansion True Monarchs stepped forward, numbering at least several dozen, a force sufficient to annihilate Yu Changsheng and his group.

Lu Sandao was so frightened that his spine went cold. How did Li Lie know that?

Yu Changsheng frowned, his lips pressed tightly together, a sense of unease creeping into his heart. He was confident in his ability to protect himself, but the other disciples were in danger.

However, now is not the time to panic.

Before Yu Changsheng could speak, Lu Sandao could no longer stand.

"Li Lie, what nonsense are you spouting? What do you mean my men aren't pirates? If you want to renege on your debt, just say so. Why use these words to frame me?"

The crowd immediately calmed down considerably. Lu Sandao's words did indeed make sense, and it was possible that Li Lie was deliberately slandering him.

Li Lie sneered and summoned one of his men, asking him to reveal his discovery.

"Lu Sandao's men have all been replaced! They're not his own anymore, and the crew's behavior is nothing like that of pirates!"

"And Lu Sandao, why are your men hiding inside the boat? Aren't they feeling guilty?"

"I noticed something was off when I saw you moving the cargo yesterday! These crew members don't have the air of pirates at all! They must be people in disguise!"

Lu Sandao swallowed hard, unsure how to defend himself.

Yu Changsheng sighed inwardly. The matter had been exposed after all, but luck had played a part in it.

Using Lu Sandao's own men also carries the risk of the plan being leaked.

The difference is that if this situation is exposed now, there is still room for maneuver, while if the plan is leaked without anyone knowing, it is more terrible than being exposed.

That's why Yu Changsheng chose to disguise himself as a disciple of the Myriad Manifestations Sect.

However, now that it's been exposed, there's no point in dwelling on it anymore.

The atmosphere became tense as many pirates began to eye Yu Changsheng and his group again.

Li Lie sneered repeatedly. No matter how strong Yu Changsheng was, he couldn't possibly be a match for so many pirates here.

This time, he won again!

"Lu Sandao, how do you explain this?"

"Could it be that you have secretly colluded with other forces?"

"What a treacherous and disloyal person!"

"Lu Sandao, it would be an injustice if you didn't die!"

Lu Sandao hated Li Lie to the core at this moment, but he still did not give up.

"Now that things have been exposed, I have nothing left to hide! That's right, I'm cooperating with the people from Sea Beast Sky Island."

Li Lie said coldly, "Lu Sandao, you actually betrayed us pirates and colluded with outsiders! You're courting death!"

Lu Sandao, however, dismissed it, saying, "Colluding with outsiders? How many of you here don't have connections with external forces?"

"Even those large pirate groups have the backing of major sects. Why don't you go find them?"

Li Lie shouted, "Even so, what are your intentions in bringing outsiders to this stronghold?"

Lu Sandao was speechless for a moment and couldn't think of a way to respond.

At this moment, Yu Changsheng finally spoke.

"Actually, I am not representing the Sea Beast Heavenly Island, but myself."

"I'm here to discuss a big business deal with you all!"

Everyone present whispered among themselves, and Lu Sandao was extremely nervous. He couldn't understand what Yu Changsheng was up to and was worried that he might say the wrong thing, which would lead to everyone dying here.

But he had no other choice at the moment and could only wait and see how Yu Changsheng performed.

Li Lie sneered, "Talk business? Why would we need to talk business with you? What a joke, who do you think you are!"

Yu Changsheng's face was cold and his killing intent was surging, but now was not the time to make a move. Otherwise, he would have killed this guy even if it meant offending others.

"As long as the profits are big enough, any deal can be struck. What do you all think? Would you be willing to hear what I have to say?"

Li Lie naturally dismissed it, but the other pirates seemed somewhat tempted.

"Li Lie, although this guy isn't trustworthy, there's no harm in listening to him, don't you think?"

An obese man with a smiling face was trying to persuade him.

The people around them all chimed in, deciding to listen to what was said first.

Li Lie still did not want to give up on killing Yu Changsheng and Lu Sandao.

"If you listen to their nonsense, you'll be the ones who get fooled! I didn't see either of them discussing business all day here."

"Now that I've just exposed your identity, what kind of business suddenly comes your way? Do you think everyone else is a three-year-old?"

Li Lie's words also aroused suspicion among the others, and Lu Sandao immediately retorted:

"I think you're the fool! When we're doing business, we definitely need to find the right people; otherwise, cooperating with someone like you is just asking for trouble."

"If it weren't for you getting in my way, we wouldn't be talking in front of so many people!"

Li Lie opened his mouth, speechless for a moment.

Yu Changsheng couldn't help but take another look at Lu Sandao. It seemed that the guy's reaction was not bad, and it had finally had some effect.

The two of them sang in unison, making it seem like it was a real performance.

At that moment, the dark figure suddenly approached, its voice hoarse:

"That's enough, Li Lie, stop arguing."

"Lu Sandao, what kind of business do you want to discuss? If you can't satisfy all the heroes here, I'll start with you! Then I'll bury the person behind you on this island." (End of Chapter)
