Douro Continent

Chapter 572 The Fiery Purple Pearl

Suddenly seeing a purple-robed figure embracing the struggling Xiao Wu inside the wooden house, Tang San's anger transformed into a chilling red light. "Die." He leaped up abruptly, his Eight Spider Lances extending behind him. Although he hadn't released his Martial Soul, he had already maximized his speed using the Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone, charging straight towards the purple figure.

Tang San didn't use his soul skills because he was afraid of hurting Xiao Wu, but his anger had reached its peak, and he was determined to tear the person who dared to humiliate Xiao Wu to pieces no matter what.

Hearing the sound behind her, the woman in purple reacted quickly. Just as Tang San lunged forward, her body twisted rapidly like a fish, and in a flash, she and Xiao Wu had already slid five meters away, just in time to dodge Tang San's attack.

But who is Tang San? In his extreme rage, his potential has been fully unleashed. The eight spider spears on the bottom right side of his body slammed heavily into the ground, while the eight spider spears on the bottom left side plunged into the ground for support. He spun around in mid-air, his momentum undiminished, and was once again in front of the purple-robed man.

The sharp Eight Spider Lances pierced straight into the opponent's body. This time, Tang San used all his strength, and the speed was as fast as lightning.

Although the purple-robed man was also a Soul Master, Tang San didn't give him a chance to release his Martial Soul in such a short time. The Eight Spider Lances were already upon him.

Faced with a life-or-death crisis, the woman in purple robes made a move that puzzled Tang San. She suddenly pushed Xiao Wu's body away, sending her crashing onto the bed beside her. Having no time to retreat, she abruptly raised her right leg, aiming a kick straight at Tang San's chest—a move precisely where the enemy would have to defend.

Unfortunately, although his reaction was quick, it was still a bit inferior to Tang San's. His kick seemed to be aimed at the enemy's must-defend point, and his leg was also very long. Unfortunately, Tang San's Eight Spider Lances were even longer, reaching a length of three meters, which was beyond the reach of his leg.

Just as at least four of the Eight Spider Lances were about to pierce the purple-robed man's body, Tang San finally saw the man's face clearly. Upon seeing him, the red in his eyes momentarily froze, and his attack slowed down by half a beat.

What appeared before him was not a burly, bearded man or a ferocious pirate, but a woman of well-proportioned figure. She looked to be about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, with extremely beautiful features. She had a high nose, large eyes, and short, neat purple hair. She exuded a spirited air. At this moment, her beautiful purple eyes were filled with horror as she stared at Tang San.

A woman? Is this Purple Pearl? It was because of her appearance these past two years that Tang San's movements slowed down. Purple Pearl was indeed formidable. Suddenly sensing the opponent's fierce aura, her unstoppable attack faltered for a moment. Using the momentum of her right leg kick, she flipped once in the air. During the flip, her outer robe came off and was flung directly at Tang San, while she used the momentum to retreat.

Upon discovering that the other party was a woman, Tang San's resentment dissipated considerably. He did not pursue his opponent any further. In a flash, he arrived beside Xiao Wu and pulled her graceful body into his arms. A long robe then flew out from the Twenty-Four Bridges Under the Moonlit Night, covering Xiao Wu's body.

Xiao Wu, now without her soul, appeared somewhat flustered. Suddenly sensing Tang San's presence, she couldn't help but let out a soft moan, clinging tightly to his waist and refusing to let go, her chest heaving violently. Clearly, she was quite surprised.

Tang San let the other party go for the time being, but the other party had no intention of letting him go.

Purple Pearl, as the captain of the Purple Pearl Pirate Gang, had dominated these waters for over a decade. Never before had she been so humiliated. Nearly killed by Tang San's attack, the beautiful captain was enraged.

"Who goes there? How dare you cause trouble for my Purple Pearl Pirate Crew?" From Purple Pearl's perspective, all that could be seen was Tang San's long, flowing blue hair. The hair obscured Tang San's face, but Tang San was looking down at Xiao Wu. Only the barbed, menacing Eight Spider Lances on his back startled the Purple Pearl captain, who subconsciously activated his soul power and released his martial soul.

Sensing Xiao Wu's fright, Tang San's anger flared up again. Thinking of his companions being imprisoned outside, he slowly raised his head and said coldly, "Those who come to kill you... it's not just you. I will wipe out your entire Purple Pearl Pirate Gang, leaving not a single one alive."

When Purple Pearl looked up at Tang San, she couldn't help but be stunned. In her eyes, Tang San had a full forehead, a straight nose and a square mouth, and his handsome face was filled with a cold killing intent. His blue eyes flickered with purple-gold light, but within this murderous aura, there was also a touch of elegance. Every gesture he made was so graceful and natural. In her entire life, Purple Pearl had never seen such a person before.

Of course, Purple Pearl is much more immune to handsome men than ordinary women.

"I want to see how you destroyed our Purple Pearl Pirate Crew. Get out here!" With that, Purple Pearl retreated rapidly, disappearing from the wooden house in a flash. Tang San was startled, fearing that the other party would take their anger out on the Shrek Five Monsters. However, with Xiao Wu with him, it was inconvenient to use Instant Teleportation. He stomped his right foot and chased after her at top speed.

Purple Pearl did not intend to make things difficult for the Shrek Five Monsters and Bai Chenxiang. She stopped at one end of the open space in front of the wooden house. At this moment, her martial soul had been released. Her body was slightly twisted, and she appeared soft. There was a bit of deathly aura in her eyes, and a layer of gray-blue small scales appeared on the surface of her skin.

Snake. Seeing the changes in her body, Tang San immediately guessed that her martial soul must be related to snakes. However, it wasn't an ordinary snake; it should be a sea serpent martial soul.

Two yellow, two purple, and two black spirit rings—six perfectly matched spirit rings—appeared on Purple Pearl. Although Tang San could guess that Purple Pearl's actual age was older than she appeared, judging from her spirit rings and the level 68 spirit power that Jixiang mentioned, this woman's strength was indeed extraordinary.

But so what? Sea snakes are venomous? But they're still snakes. Tang San, in a flash, handed Xiao Wu to Ning Rongrong, who was still lying on the ground, unable to even sit up. With a swift movement, he pounced on Purple Pearl. As the saying goes, to catch the thief, first catch the king. There were thousands of enemies here, and two hundred Soul Masters. He might not be able to break through alone. But if he captured Purple Pearl, leaving would be much easier.

In mid-air, Tang San's Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul suddenly erupted, with six spirit rings practically shooting out of his body. Yellow, yellow, purple, black, black, red—the terrifying colors of the spirit rings made Purple Pearl's heart tremble violently. The next moment, a white halo suddenly burst forth from Tang San's body.

Tang San never holds back when facing enemies; he immediately unleashed his Killing God Domain.

Since gaining some understanding of the God of Slaughter Domain under the pressure of Sword Douluo, its power has become even greater than before, mainly in terms of control. Within the domain's range, Tang San can now concentrate or disperse the effects of the God of Slaughter Domain at will. At this moment, facing only one opponent, he naturally focused all his killing intent on Purple Pearl. The God of Slaughter Assault erupted instantly.

Purple Pearl felt a sudden chill run through her body. An incomparably cold aura, like a sharp blade, pierced her chest, yet this power was intangible and formless. The coldness intensified fear, causing her to instinctively retreat. Her fighting spirit waned, and the weakening effect of the Killing God Domain immediately took hold. Moreover, as the Killing God Domain's power increased, the chilling killing intent also sluggished Purple Pearl's bodily functions. Despite her considerable strength, she could only unleash seventy percent of it.

A yellowish-green light appeared out of nowhere, transforming into a large net in mid-air that directly enveloped the sluggish Purple Pearl. Just as Purple Pearl tried to use the unique properties of her martial soul to dodge, suddenly, sixteen Blue Silver Emperors surged forth from the ground, forming a cage that tightly bound her within. The net had been cast, and within it lay the cage. Purple Pearl was horrified to discover that she had no chance to dodge. And she was not adept at direct combat.

A brilliant golden light appeared on Tang San's right arm. After the two restrictive skills firmly restrained the opponent, the Blue Silver Overlord Spear transformed into a golden light, becoming an extension of his arm and directly striking the Purple Pearl. Only then did the huge commotion attract a large number of pirates to gather around.

"Master, no!"

"Third Brother, don't kill her."

Two voices rang out almost simultaneously. Tang San's Blue Silver Overlord Spear stopped right in front of Zi Zhenzhu, and the sharp aura pressed down on her so much that she couldn't even make a sound.

Indeed, Purple Pearl's strength is quite impressive; at the Soul Emperor level, she's considered a formidable opponent. However, she encountered Tang San—a man who dared to challenge a Soul Douluo, a level above him.

If they were on the open sea, perhaps Purple Pearl could have used her sea spirit master abilities to put up a fight against Tang San. But this is land. Although their spirit power levels are the same, in terms of strength and combat experience, how could Purple Pearl be a match for Tang San? From the moment Tang San broke through the wall with a single punch, her momentum had already been completely suppressed. Now, she was utterly defeated.

The one who called for his master was Jixiang, who rushed over anxiously.

A blue silver emperor amulet floated up, wrapped around Jixiang's body, and pulled him to his side. Tang San's eyes shone with power as he swept over the pirates who were hurling insults around him, and he said coldly, "Anyone who speaks disrespectfully again, or takes another step forward, don't blame me for being ruthless."

The pirates immediately fell silent, staring at Tang San with eyes full of anger.

This was the first time Jixiang had witnessed Tang San's strength. Looking at the six spirit rings on Tang San's body, especially the red ones, the shock he felt was indescribable. In his understanding, although Purple Pearl wasn't exceptionally powerful, she was still the strongest on the island. Purple Pearl was actually thirty-five years old, significantly older than Tang San. Yet, in such a short time, the formidable Purple Pearl had already fallen to her teacher, who was also a Spirit Emperor. Besides anxiety, Jixiang also felt a hidden sense of pride.

"Teacher, please don't do it. Leader Purple Pearl isn't a bad person," Jixiang said anxiously to Tang San.

Tang San looked at Jixiang, then at his companions. "These are the companions I've been looking for. She's not a bad person? Didn't you see what happened to my companions just now?"

"Third Brother, don't do it. He's right, this commander isn't all that bad." This time, it wasn't Jixiang who spoke, but Ma Hongjun, who was lying on the ground and struggling to sit up.

"Huh?" Tang San looked at Ma Hongjun with some surprise. At this moment, Xiao Wu was sitting there blankly, and apart from Ma Hongjun, everyone else seemed to have fainted.

Seven blue silver emperors simultaneously extended, each wrapping around the seven people's bodies and bringing them to their side.

"Fatty, what's going on?" Tang San frowned deeply as he looked at Ma Hongjun, whose face was pale and tinged with a faint blue aura. Through the Blue Silver Emperor, he could clearly sense that everyone except Xiao Wu was extremely weak. Ma Hongjun was slightly better off, still managing to stay conscious. All six of them shared a common characteristic: their bodies were as cold as ice.

Ma Hongjun barely managed to look at Tang San and said with difficulty, "The captain tied us up outside so that the sun could shine on us better. We have to stand with both feet on the ground so that the cold poison in our bodies can be expelled from the soles of our feet." After saying this, Ma Hongjun's head lolled to the side and he also fainted.

Tang San felt a pang of doubt. He retracted the Blue Silver Overlord Spear from his right arm slightly and asked Zi Zhenzhu in a deep voice, "Are you really doing this to save them?"

"Save my ass! I'm going to torture them. If you've got the guts, kill me. Go ahead and do it! If you don't dare, you're a coward. Come on!" As soon as Tang San's oppressive aura left, Zi Zhenzhu, who was holding back her anger, couldn't help but burst out with fury. As the leader of the pirate crew, her fierceness caused the pirates surrounding her to look rather strange.

As she spoke, the Purple Pearl Captain, now free from oppression, even planned to unleash her soul skill for a direct confrontation.

In terms of looks, Purple Pearl was undoubtedly the most beautiful woman on the island, but her fiery temper was equally unmatched. Her subordinates always lived in constant fear around her; who would dare to easily offend her?

Tang San was taken aback by her scolding, but after hearing Ma Hongjun's words, his emotions quickly calmed down. Having weathered so many storms, and now that he was certain his lover and companions were safe, the wise and composed Tang San returned.

The Blue Silver Overlord Spear was handed over again, its sharp aura forcefully interrupting Purple Pearl's attempt to unleash her soul skill. Of course, Purple Pearl couldn't speak anymore. Although she had told Tang San to do it, she didn't have the courage to actually run into the extremely sharp Blue Silver Overlord Spear herself.

With his ears finally at peace, Tang San turned his gaze to the pirates around him. "Can anyone tell me how my companions got here, and what happened afterward? I'll count to three, and if no one answers my question, I'll kill your captain first."

The chilling Killing God Domain was released once more. Of course, this time it wasn't to make a move, but rather to use the immense killing intent contained within the Killing God Domain to tell the surrounding pirates that he wasn't joking.

Before Tang San could start the countdown, an elderly pirate stepped forward and said urgently, "Don't make a move, I know what's going on."

Tang San turned his cold gaze to him, and the old pirate dared not be negligent and recounted what had happened.

It turned out that after everyone was blasted away by the sudden attack from the Deep Sea Demon Whale that day, they fell far into the sea. Although the Deep Sea Demon Whale failed to pursue them, they were all knocked unconscious by the shock. Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing were even more seriously injured.

When they awoke, they had been scattered by the seawater. None of them could swim, but some could fly. Once Ma Hongjun, whose physical condition was relatively better, regained consciousness, he immediately flew into the air, searching for the others. After finally finding them, they gathered together. They used whatever floatable items they had to support themselves. Ma Hongjun's soul power had also been greatly depleted from searching for everyone. Everyone's physical condition was extremely poor. Only Xiao Wu, who had consumed the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng and the Acacia Heartbreak Red, two highly prized medicinal herbs, was in the best physical condition.

Time passed day by day. Although they carried food in their soul tools, they were constantly adrift in the sea, a group of non-swimmers battling the waves every day, with no time to rest. They also had to care for the seriously injured Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing. Their physical condition deteriorated day by day. They could only hope to encounter a passing fishing boat.

The attack was sudden that day, and the Dragon Abyss Boat was with Tang San, which was a major reason why they couldn't save themselves.

On the tenth day, when even their physiques as Soul Masters were about to give way, they unfortunately encountered a Soul Beast—a ten-thousand-year-old Soul Beast.

On land, in good physical condition, even Oscar of the Shrek Seven Devils could have dealt with a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast using his Mirror Image Sausage. However, this was the sea, and they were all so weak. Although they managed to kill the soul beast with their combined strength, they were all injured. Soon after, they discovered that the ten-thousand-year-old soul beast was highly poisonous, and they had all been afflicted with a special kind of cold poison—a cold poison that even Ma Hongjun's Phoenix Flame could not neutralize.

Oscar's little sausage could only slow down the onset of the poison, but it couldn't eliminate it. Of the seven, only Xiao Wu, whom they had been protecting, was unharmed.

Just when they were in dire straits, they encountered the Purple Pearl. The pirates on board rescued them and took them back to Purple Pearl Island. After examination, these pirates, familiar with the sea, discovered that the group was afflicted with a special kind of cold poison. This poison was incurable, yet it wouldn't kill them. The ten-thousand-year-old soul beast they had encountered was the same as Purple Pearl's martial soul, called the Sea Viper. However, even Purple Pearl couldn't cure the poison; they had to endure three days of exposure to sunlight for the poison to dissipate on its own. Moreover, during these three days, they couldn't eat anything, only drink small amounts of water. Then, they had to stand upright, and the cold poison would be forced into the ground by the sun. This was why the group looked so weak.

After being in the sea for so long without being able to eat, it's no wonder their physical condition was poor.

As for Xiao Wu, since she wasn't poisoned, she recovered quickly. Although Purple Pearl wasn't inherently bad, she couldn't resist the allure of Xiao Wu's beauty and decided to spend time with her before the others recovered.

Tang San glanced at Zi Zhenzhu with disdain. "Do you even have that ability?"

Purple Pearl wanted to speak, but the domineering aura emanating from the Blue Silver Overlord Spear forced her to give up the opportunity to speak.

"A mere bit of cold poison, does it really need sunlight?" Tang San snorted disdainfully, reached into his Ruyi Hundred Treasures Pouch, and under Jixiang's astonished gaze, pulled out a golden-red bead.

As soul power was channeled into it, a brilliant golden-red light shone forth, making it resemble a small sun when held in the palm of one's hand.

As Tang San channeled his soul power into the bead, he also retrieved his Blue Silver Overlord Spear. Purple Pearl was about to unleash a torrent of curses when suddenly her entire body trembled violently, and she collapsed to the ground, her face pale. Enveloped in the golden-red light, her eyes were filled with utter horror.

Within that golden-red light, there was a peculiar mechanical aura that rendered Purple Pearl speechless. What terrified her most was the pain that seemed to emanate from the depths of her soul.

Tang San glanced coldly at Purple Pearl, then looked away. His Blue Silver Emperor stirred slightly, first pulling Zhu Zhuqing close to him. He gently pinched her chin, then placed the shimmering pearl in his hand into her mouth, his voice, infused with spiritual power, filling her ears, "Hold it in your mouth, don't swallow."

Only when Zhu Zhuqing closed her mouth did the terrifying aura disappear. Zi Zhenzhu breathed a sigh of relief. Just as she was about to start cursing again, Tang San sealed her mouth with a single sentence.

"If you curse again, I'll slaughter every last one of you. Do you think anyone here can stop me?" As she spoke, the chilling aura of a killing god spread out once more, accompanied by a sudden piercing of purple divine light from her eyes into Purple Pearl's pupils. This was not an attack, but a soul-shaking intimidation.

Tang San's timing was undoubtedly perfect. After the fear she had just experienced and the helplessness she felt in the face of Tang San's attack, Zi Zhenzhu was already somewhat afraid of him. Coupled with the mental intimidation, this time, the female pirate leader ultimately didn't dare to utter a curse.

His gaze shifted to the old pirate who had spoken earlier. "Bring me a basin of clean water." As he spoke, he swung a Blue Silver Emperor sword and, taking advantage of the Purple Pearl's state of being suppressed by the Purple Extreme Divine Light, struck her several times, sealing her soul power and also sealing her speech acupoint.

Purple Pearl then realized what was happening and opened her mouth to curse, but found that she couldn't make a sound. This phenomenon greatly intimidated the surrounding pirates, and some of the Soul Masters who had been itching to attack immediately became obedient.

Tang San stopped looking at them, raised his hand and placed it on Zhu Zhuqing's back, gently channeling the Xuan Tian Gong internal energy into Zhu Zhuqing's body.

At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing's skin was radiating a faint golden-red glow, and wisps of bluish-black aura were constantly spreading from around her body, gradually giving her pale face a rosy hue.

The bead Tang San took out was the inner core of the Ten-Headed Fiery Sun Serpent that he had obtained on the Hell Road. He didn't know the characteristics of the cold poison afflicting his companions, or why even Fatty's Phoenix Flame couldn't resist it. But regardless, this cold poison originated from a snake-type soul beast, and given the Ten-Headed Fiery Sun Serpent's dominant position among snakes, coupled with its pure Yang nature, it was perfectly suited to counteract it.

As it turned out, Tang San's judgment was correct. In a short while, the cold poison in Zhu Zhuqing's body had completely subsided, and she weakly opened her eyes.

Tang San placed his hand near her mouth, and Zhu Zhuqing spat out the hot bead, weakly calling out, "Third Brother..."

Tang San stuffed a piece of dragon fungus leaf into Zhu Zhuqing's mouth. "Chew and swallow slowly. Don't say anything, it's important to rest first."

Zhu Zhuqing nodded slightly. With Tang San here, she naturally had nothing to worry about. With Tang San's help, she sat cross-legged on the ground and slowly chewed the Dragon Fungus Leaf in her mouth to enter a state of cultivation.

Tang San chose to treat Zhu Zhuqing first for a reason. Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai were severely injured that day, and their physical condition must have been the worst in the past few days. Since Zhu Zhuqing was a girl, her physical strength could not compare with Dai Mubai's. Therefore, she was the first person to be treated.

Next were Dai Mubai, Bai Chenxiang, Ning Rongrong, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun. Each time, Tang San would cleanse the ten inner cores of the Fiery Sun Serpents before using his soul power to activate their effects, then place them one by one into his companions' mouths to help them remove the cold poison from their bodies.

After dealing with all of this, Tang San finally breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, a cold sweat broke out on his back. His companions' physical condition was worse than he had imagined, and the suffering they had endured over the past ten days was no less than his own. If they were really made to detoxify under the sun and suffer for another three days, they would probably be severely weakened. Even if they were saved, it would likely greatly hinder their future improvement in strength.

After settling things with his companions, Tang San put his arm around Xiao Wu and came to Zi Zhenzhu.

After Tang San sealed Zi Zhenzhu's speech acupoint, she couldn't make a sound no matter how angry she cursed. She hated Tang San to the extreme. When she saw him coming over, her eyes blazed with fire. She suddenly stood up from the Blue Silver Cage, grabbed the cage tightly, and glared at Tang San.

The elderly pirate said from a distance, "Lord Soul Emperor, your companion has been healed. Can you release our captain now? We meant no harm to your companion. It was all a misunderstanding!"

Tang San said calmly, "Release her? Can you guarantee we won't be torn to pieces by the pirates here? I just offended your captain."

The old pirate was about to make a guarantee when he saw Tang San's clear and dignified gaze. He couldn't bring himself to say anything perfunctory and stood there for a moment, seemingly stunned.

Tang San said, "Considering you don't seem to harbor much hostility, I won't kill your captain. However, we've fallen to this state because of your Purple Pearl Pirate Crew. You should know Haider, right? We were killed because we boarded his Sea Demon. That's why we're in this predicament. I'm not afraid to tell you, Haider brought us to the Demon Whale Sea, awakening the Demon Whale and causing it to attack us. We survived against that 100,000-year-old deep-sea Demon Whale, let alone you. Although I won't kill your captain, I won't let her go easily. To ensure the safety of myself and my companions, your captain will have to suffer these next few days. Have your people cook a large pot of porridge and send it over, along with some other food. Don't think about poisoning her; Jixiang is with me. As long as you do as I say, once my companions recover, we'll leave this place, and then I'll naturally let your captain go."

Before the old pirate could speak, Tang San added, "Don't try to bargain with me. You have no right to bargain. Unless you don't want her dead."

With a flick of his Blue Silver Emperor sword, Tang San wrapped it around Purple Pearl's body, removed the Blue Silver Cage, and used the Blue Silver Emperor sword to pull Purple Pearl to his side.

The pirates exchanged bewildered glances, at a loss for what to do, and could only follow Tang San's instructions. The old pirate said, "We will do as you say. But please keep your promise and do not harm our captain."

Tang San said calmly, "At least for now, I don't have a reason to kill her, and I hope you won't give me that reason."

With a slight movement, the Blue Silver Emperor skillfully burrowed under the bodies of the people sitting cross-legged on the ground, and under Tang San's exquisite control, it led them back to Purple Pearl's room.

Although one wall of the fairly large room was broken, there was still enough space inside for these people to rest.

Tang San pressed a few more acupoints on Zi Zhenzhu's body before placing her in a corner. He then embraced Xiao Wu, gently stroking her long, soft hair to soothe her frightened heart. He let out a long sigh of relief. This crisis was finally mostly over.

Ji Xiang had been quietly watching Tang San from beginning to end. Seeing that Tang San had managed to intimidate the entire Purple Pearl Pirate Crew all by himself, Ji Xiang felt that his teacher's abilities had reached an unprecedented level.

"auspicious."

Upon hearing Tang San call his name, Ji Xiang hurriedly went to Tang San's side and respectfully said, "Teacher."

A gentle light appeared in Tang San's eyes. His elegance returned, the imposing aura that had intimidated the bandits moments before completely gone. "I hope you understand my actions. This is the territory of the Purple Pearl Pirate Gang. In that situation, I had no other choice. I know you have a deep affection for this place. I promise you, I will not harm anyone lightly unless absolutely necessary."

Hearing Tang San's words, Jixiang clearly felt a sense of relief and nodded vigorously. "Teacher, thank you. Actually, although Captain Purple Pearl has a sharp tongue, she is a very good person. She often leads everyone to help poor fishing villages in the Purple Pearl. I know about Haider you mentioned. He holds a high position in the pirate crew because he brought many Soul Masters with him, and he has always been very arrogant. It's his bad luck that he offended you this time."

Tang San smiled slightly and said, "As long as you understand me, that's good. As for this Purple Pearl Captain, let her have some peace and quiet for a few days. I don't want to hear her swearing."

Jixiang glanced at Purple Pearl, who was sitting in the corner, her face contorted with anger yet unable to vent it, and couldn't help but smile. "Purple Pearl, the captain, has probably never suffered such a loss before. Everyone in the pirate crew has experienced her temper. I never expected that Master would manage to subdue her. Is the method you used to silence her a type of acupoint sealing technique you mentioned?"

Tang San nodded and said, "That's right. There are many acupoints on the human body, including major acupoints, minor acupoints, numb acupoints, and death acupoints. Pressing different acupoints with different amounts of force will produce special effects. I'll draw an acupoint chart for you later, and you must memorize these acupoints first. Although your internal strength cannot be improved right now because you don't have a soul ring, you still need to persist in your cultivation and familiarize yourself with the operation of the Mysterious Heaven Skill."

"Yes."

Before long, the food Tang San had ordered arrived. Although he knew the other party wouldn't dare to play any tricks, Tang San still used silver needles to test each piece of food for poison before feeding it to everyone.
