Rebirth: City Sovereign

On the shore, the three of them stared at the dead body of Chu Ke, unable to utter a single word.    

"What, what is going on? Wasn't it fine just now? Why did it suddenly turn into a human meat bomb? " Hai Ou was the first to speak, as he said in a daze.    

"Did he commit suicide because he didn't want us to know the secret? This method is too powerful. "    

At this time, on the spirit rope that Ye Kai shot out, other than the flowing bloodstains, there was nothing else. There was only a bald head hanging, which was extremely terrifying.    

Small Sea Spirit fell to the ground. She had never seen so much blood, much less this tragic death. Her entire face was stiff and her body trembled uncontrollably.    

Ye Kai shook his head as he spoke with a serious expression.    

"No, he clearly said that just now. This is not suicide."    

"This should be a Gu technique."    

"Gu arts?" Hearing this, the siblings were slightly stunned.    

"Yes." Ye Kai nodded, and said.    

"If a person who has been afflicted with this Gu technique opens his mouth and says a word or key word, the Gu technique will immediately activate and kill that person!"    

"This Gu technique is colorless and formless, I'm afraid even Chu Ke doesn't know that he was poisoned by this Gu technique."    

Ye Kai's voice was extremely calm, and the moment it reached the siblings' ears, the siblings sucked in a cold breath of air. They, who lived on the shore, had never heard of such a terrifying technique.    

"Wha, why did you do that?" Hai Ou's face was pale white, he asked again, he never expected that just by letting Chu Ke point out the location of the villagers, he would actually turn him into a human bomb and explode.    

"Hide the locations of those who were taken away." As Ye Kai spoke, his expression also became heavier.    

The development of the situation far exceeded his expectations.    

At first, Ye Kai only thought that Chu Ke's superior had ordered him to release the Spiritual Beast s and kill the normal villagers. But after seeing Chu Ke's miserable state of death, Ye Kai understood that what he was seeing now was only the tip of the iceberg.    

This kind of Gu technique had very high cultivation requirements, ordinary cultivators would not be able to use it at all. Moreover, using this Gu technique required a large amount of precious magic tools and herbs, so using this kind of Gu technique on such harsh environments was undoubtedly a huge consumption.    

Chu Ke was only the mayor of a town, why did he have to go through so much trouble to use this Gu technique on him?    

There was only one answer, and that was the place the selected villagers went, which was the highest secret that the rulers of Sea God Star had tried their best to conceal.    

Right now, Ye Kai still did not know where these villagers had gone to, but he understood that within this Sea God Star that had been tainted by the poison, an unimaginable and terrifying event was currently happening!    

After staying in that spot for a while, Ye Kai said.    

"Is there anyone else nearby who would like to participate in this selection?"    

Hearing Ye Kai say that, the siblings were stunned, and then, Hai Ou opened his mouth and spoke.    

"There are a total of forty-eight small villages at the edge of Hai Zhen's town. With the current state of Sea Blue Village, the other villages should be about the same, so there shouldn't be any more selections."    

"However, the selection isn't only limited to just Sea Town. Every town in every Sea God Star should have a selection meeting."    

"Yes." Ye Kai nodded, a strand of Spirit Qi rose up from his feet and he was about to rise into the sky, but just as he was about to leave the Sea Blue Village, a young and tender voice sounded out from between the two.    

"Sir, are you going to another town to participate in the selection?"    

Small Sea Spirit said as she watched Ye Kai's back.    

"Yes." Facing these two siblings, Ye Kai had nothing to hide, so he could only nod his head and reply.    

He was very clear that since Chu Ke was poisoned and unable to say where the villagers were taken away, then the other town's mayor would be the same as him. The moment he opened his mouth, he would instantly die, so capturing someone to interrogate would be useless.    

The only way to find out what kind of plot Sea God Star was brewing was to personally participate in the selection and become a member of the selected villagers!    

Although it was extremely dangerous to do this, Ye Kai was unable to think of a better method within a short period of time.    

"Then, please bring Hai Ling along!" Hearing Ye Kai's words, Hai Ling said with a determined face.    

Hai Ou's face first turned white, then she went up and pulled Hai Ling, his face was flushed red as she spoke.    

"Hai Ling, are you crazy?"    

"Do you know what you're talking about? With our strength, we are completely unable to enter those dangerous places. Even if you go, you'll only be lapping for our lord!"    

"Don't cause trouble, let's go home!"    

To his surprise, although he did not use any strength, Small Sea Spirit still stood there motionlessly, relying on his own strength.    

Small Sea Spirit, who had a weak body, had an abnormally resolute expression. She turned her head and looked at her brother, her face filled with unwavering determination.    

"Bro, I know that my request is very wild, but this might be our only chance to find out the whereabouts of our friends."    

"You!"    

"I've had the disease since I was born. You know, I don't have much lifespan left. Before I go to that world, I really want to know where my friend went." Small Sea Spirit had an expression that seemed like he was about to cry.    

"Bullshit!" Hearing Hai Ling's words, Hai Ou's face changed as she shouted in anger.    

"You won't die! I will definitely find a way to cure you! "    

Small Sea Spirit just shook her head, revealing a bitter smile.    

"I know my own body the best. You don't need to do this."    

Then, she slowly raised her head and looked at Ye Kai as she spoke.    

"Master, let me beg you. I have lived for fifteen years, and because of my body, I have never left the Sea Blue Village, not even one step."    

"If you were to go to another town to participate in the selection meeting, could you bring me along? I really want to know where my friends, those people who were captured by the mayor, went to."    

Ye Kai did not speak from beginning to end, only quietly looked at the little girl.    

After a moment, Ye Kai nodded.    

"Alright."    

After he finished speaking, he raised his hand and released a stream of Spirit Qi that covered Small Sea Spirit's thin and weak leg.    

Being enveloped by the spirit qi, Small Sea Spirit felt as if she was going to be numbed. Her unconscious legs started to slowly regain their senses, and a warm feeling spread from her feet all the way to her knees.    

"Eh? My feet can walk? " At first, he was stunned, but soon after, Small Sea Spirit's face was filled with ecstasy.    

"Yes, I used my spiritual energy to temporarily resist the corrosion from the sea spots, although it could only last for a few days."    

"No problem, thank you, my lord!" Small Sea Spirit was jumping and jumping. In the past fifteen years, she had never felt such a feeling of being able to control her legs as she pleased.    

Hai Ou looked at the lively Hai Ling with a face full of gratitude.    

Then, as if he had thought of something, he turned and looked at Ye Kai.    

"Little Spirit is my only sister. I can't watch her take the risk by herself. If she really wants to go, then I'll go with her. Is that okay with you, master?"    

"Are you sure?" Facing these two siblings, Ye Kai was rather patient and repeatedly confirmed.    

"That place might be more dangerous than you think, and the truth might be hard for you to accept. Forgive me for being blunt, but your friend might have been used as a tool, but even so, do you still want to go?"    

"Yes." Small Sea Spirit nodded, this was her only wish, of course she wouldn't give up.    

"Fine." Ye Kai raised his hand and released a stream of spirit energy and a few Magic Formation s. He was prepared to raise the cultivation of the brother and sister pair slightly before setting off again.    

At that moment, a tiny black beam of light suddenly fell from the sky!    

"Ah!"    

Small Sea Spirit's body trembled as she let out an unknown voice. After that, she lowered her head and looked at her chest.    

At that place, a pure black arrow coated in poison had accurately pierced her left chest, piercing through her heart!    

"Hai Ling!" Hai Ou's eyes looked like they were about to split open. He rushed forward, but his body had already been knocked a hundred meters away by Ye Kai's palm.    

"Dodge." Ye Kai said coldly, he raised his eyes and looked at the Sky s, and saw countless black arrows shooting towards them.    

Enemy attack!
