A stream of mental power swept through Wei Ci's body and was clearly noticed by him.
He frowned and resisted the urge to get angry. He used his mental power to spy on others. This was extremely impolite behavior and any practitioner would not be unaware of it.
The other party is so unscrupulous, obviously he has something to rely on.
The Black Swordsman sneered: "Hand over the things you hunted this time! What? Wait for me to do it?"
"Senior Hei... don't bully others too much!" Wu Hou secretly thought that it was bad luck. He suppressed his anger while thinking about what to do next.
He subconsciously glanced at a certain member of the team, and the team's harvest this time was in the hands of that member.
Wei Ci quietly asked the teammates beside him, "What's going on?"
Although he didn't know much about what happened, robberies happened everywhere, so he wasn't surprised at all.
A teammate whispered: "That's the Black Swordsman, a well-known and domineering man in this area. He has robbed many hunting teams with his strong strength and weird innate skills.
"The last time we came back from hunting, we encountered him. That time we chose to fight to the death. Unfortunately, although we saved the team's resources in the end, the cost was the death of a brother."
So that's it... Wei Ci nodded slightly. No wonder Wu Hou was talking about his senior, but he didn't show any respect and his face was so ugly.
"This bastard, fight him!" The past events were brought up again, and the other two members of the team said angrily.
However, the low voice betrayed his unconcealable fear.
Several people unconsciously stood towards Wei Ci and moved closer together.
Wei Ci was silent for a moment and said, "Whose hands will be the harvest this time?"
"Me!" A pertinent reply came from behind, and the speaker was the most spiritually powerful practitioner in the team.
"Leave the things to me first." He did not turn around, but continued.
There was silence behind him, and a gaze was fixed on Wei Ci's back. After a few breaths passed, the owner of the gaze looked away, as if he had made some kind of decision.
At this time, Wei Ci felt something strange coming from his hand, and something was quietly handed to his palm.
Rubbing it with his fingers slightly, he knew that it was the storage ring containing the harvest from this hunt.
With a slight movement of thought, the ring disappeared from his hand.
At this time, a voice mixed with reluctance and helplessness came from Wu Hou's mouth: "Give him the thing."
The Black Swordsman had a sneer on his lips, but there was a trace of expectation in his eyes. He had discovered earlier that this team was leaving the island by boat, so he stayed here every day, not only to avenge his last injury, but also to get ready-made trophies.
After waiting for a while, none of the five people in the team made any move.
A trace of doubt arose in Wu Hou's eyes. Even he was no match for the Black Swordsmen. Do they still want to...
No, you have to stop them. If you run out of resources, you can earn them again. If you lose your life, you are really gone!
He looked behind Wei Ci: "Kang Hai, please take out that storage ring. We don't need to have a meaningless fight."
Kuang Hai is the most mentally powerful and oldest cultivator in the team. He harvests all the trophies of the strange beasts killed by the team, and the equipment used to store the trophies is a storage item belonging to Marquis Wu.
ring.
"Captain, the ring is not with me now."
Kuang Hai glanced at Wei Ci subconsciously and explained in a low voice.
"Um?"
Wu Hou snorted in confusion. Although he didn't know what kind of medicine Kuang Hai was selling in his gourd, looking at Kuang Hai's eyes, it was obvious that the item was now in Wei Ci's hands.
People under the eaves have to lower their heads, Wei Xin, you kid, don't make any trouble at this time!
Various thoughts flashed through Wu Hou's mind, and he turned his attention to Wei Ci, trying to find the answer.
"Yes, captain, I have it in my hands. Kuang Hai was in a hurry to hunt down that beast, so the task of collecting the beast crystals and materials was temporarily taken over by me."
Wei Ci scratched his head and spoke quickly. As he spoke, a trace of timidity appeared on his face at the right time.
Wu Hou nodded. He and Zhang Ke left a few people behind for a while to chase the Demonic Sound Sea Dog. Maybe that was what happened during that time, which is normal.
However, in his impression, Wei Xin was not a timid person, but the look in his eyes just now was clearly timid. When did he become so timid?
Forget it, maybe he was just starting out and was overwhelmed by the Black Swordsman's momentum...
With this thought in mind, he stepped forward and patted Wei Ci on the shoulder, sighed and comforted:
"Wei Xin, in the world of cultivation, the strong are respected. The Black Swordsmen are far stronger than you and me. There is no need to offend him for such a small thing. Please take out the things."
Wei Ci nodded reluctantly and reached into his pocket.
After picking it out a few times, he suddenly looked stunned, then rummaged around like crazy, even opening up his clothes and searching for them inch by inch.
a long time.
"Captain...Captain, that ring seems to have been...lost on a desert island!" Wei Ci froze on the spot, lowered his head, and said with a trembling voice.
There was a sound of breathing from behind.
Kuang Hai: "..."
Why the hell did the thing I just handed you just now get lost on a deserted island?
The reason why he was willing to hand over the storage ring to Wei Ci before was because when he was hunting on the desert island, he saw that Wei Ci was very powerful and could catch up with the Demonic Sound Sea Dog, so he thought that Wei Ci could bring him with him at the critical moment.
Get away with the ring.
But Wei Ci's performance at this moment confused him.
"Hmph! Don't play tricks on me, kid, take off that ring on your hand!" The black swordsman's eyes flashed with impatience, and he snorted coldly.
Wei Ci stammered: "That's, that's my own storage ring!"
With that said, he took off the storage ring on his hand and handed it to Wu Hou.
However, before Wu Hou could reach out his hand, the Black Swordsman had already snatched it away.
Wei Ci did not use his mental power to mark the ring. Instead, he used the black swordsman's mental power to scan it and explore the contents clearly.
The ring did not contain the massive resources he had imagined, but only 7 low-grade Yuan stones and 1 Spirit-level intermediate Red Viper beast Yuan crystal.
Wu Hou brushed aside the storage ring in the black swordsman's hand with a strange look on his face.
That’s not the ring in Kuang Hai’s hand at all!
With his back to the Black Swordsman, Wu Hou glared at Wei Ci fiercely, but his eyes swirled slyly, and he scolded: "Wei Xin, forget it, you are weak, you can't even do such a small thing as keeping resources.
Okay, go back and see how I deal with you!"
"Yes...yes, Captain!"
Wei Ci lowered his eyebrows, nodded obediently, and replied submissively.
The Black Swordsman flicked his finger and threw the ring back to Wei Ci Mountain with disdain. He didn't even bother to look at such a low-level storage ring.
Then, he turned to Wu Hou: "My patience is limited, you have to pay the price for playing tricks on me!"
"Senior Black, the newcomer is not doing things well, and I have nothing to do. You have also seen that all the team's hunting harvests are in that storage ring, but now the ring is lost on that desert island..."
Wu Hou stated the facts calmly.
The next moment, the black swordsman's eyes narrowed, and the powerful spiritual aura swept over the hands, bodies and other parts of several people unscrupulously, trying to confirm whether they had hidden things on their bodies.
However, after some investigation, he was disappointed.
Apart from their own weapons, it can be said that there is nothing else on these people.
"Humph, a bunch of trash!"
Cursing unwillingly, the Black Swordsman waved his sleeves unwillingly and turned to leave.
Several people finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the Black Swordsman is at the third level of cultivation, he has been at his peak for many years and is infinitely close to the fourth level. He also has weird innate skills that can suppress the energy of others.
In front of such a strong man, they can only bow their heads and let others slaughter them.
I'm such a good actor... My acting skills just now were at least 9.7!
Wei Ci laughed in his heart and relaxed, gently touching his chest with his fingers, feeling the slightest bit of coldness there.
Fortunately, Xiao Yin had a similar mind with him, and he was quite intelligent. Xiao Yin had been able to avoid being probed by his mental power twice before.
Otherwise, if the Black Swordsman discovers the young black and white manling viper, it will be troublesome again.
Wu Hou looked at the Black Swordsman who had not gone far, and said nothing more, but just asked everyone to leave.
Zuishenju, in an independent private room.
Wei Ci, Wu Hou, Zhang Ke and other teams of six people gathered around a table.
Except for Wu Hou and Wei Ci, who had calm faces, the other people all had different expressions, including speculation, suspicion, and frustration.
Seeing that Marquis Wu was about to ask, Wei Ci stretched out his fist and slowly opened his clenched fingers.
In the center of his upward palm was a simple-looking, all-black storage ring.
"Wei Xin, I'm curious, how did you hide it?" Wu Hou held the ring in his hand and asked the question that everyone else in the team wanted to ask.
Wei Ci chuckled: "Secret!"
"Tch! Stingy." Zhang Ke curled his lips and looked at him with some dissatisfaction.
However, the dissatisfaction was not sincere.
On the deserted island, Wei Ci convinced him with his strength. In addition, since Wei Ci joined the team, he had never ridiculed his appearance, but treated him squarely, which made him feel the respect he deserved.
Wu Hou also smiled and said: "Haha, everyone has their own secrets, Brother Wei doesn't need to tell me.
"Thanks to you this time, we were able to preserve the results of 10 days of hard hunting. Otherwise, if the Black Swordsmen had robbed us, I wouldn't be able to explain it to you!"
"Captain, what are you talking about? If you hadn't given me a helping hand, I would have been torn to pieces by the beast!" Zhang Ke said, knowing that Wu Hou had the character to take all responsibilities on himself.
"Yes, Captain." Others echoed.
Wu Hou reached out and pressed the button, stopping the speeches of several people that were about to become more and more intense, and said: "Stop talking about this, let's divide the spoils!"
Kuang Hai looked at the storage ring and said in his somewhat deep voice: "In this hunting, in addition to killing the lord-level demonic sea dog, we also killed 16 king-level beasts and 72 beasts.
General-level strange beasts, and 115 spirit-level strange beasts.
"Among them, there are 2 at the peak level of king level, 1 at the high level, 5 at the intermediate level, 8 at the elementary level, 9 at the peak level of the general, and high level..."
It took nearly a quarter of an hour for Kuang Hai to count all the trophies including the exotic beast materials and beast crystals.
He dissects all the bodies of strange beasts and collects the materials, so he knows those things best.
