Peerless War God

A large sack of bright Immortal Jade fell beside the guard. Gao Ming subconsciously swallowed his saliva. Gao Ming was somewhat tempted.    

Although Gao Ming was a guard of the Heavenly Sea Island, he was transferred from the Violet Cloud City later. His position was not high, and his salary was not high either.    

Such a large sack of Immortal Jade was considered a fortune to him.    

If he obtained this fortune and bought enough pills, it would be enough for his cultivation to rise to the next level.    

Such temptation was not unmoving.    

Xiao An and also saw Gao Ming’s tempted heart. He sneered and continued, “Your name is Gao Ming, right? How much is the salary of a guard in the Violet Cloud City?”    

Gao Ming was stunned for a moment and replied, “Three thousand Immortal Jade per month.”    

“Only three thousand? Haha, do you know how many Immortal Jade I gave you? It’s several tens of thousands of Immortal Jade. For a mere three thousand Immortal Jade, you don’t have to risk it so much. You even have to take the huge risk of offending my Xiao Clan. Do you know that it’s not worth it?”    

Xiao An and tempted him.    

The combination of coercion and temptation caused a huge impact on Gao Ming’s already unstable heart.    

Before this, Gao Ming had never really thought about this. But now, he began to feel envy and even jealousy.    

They were both cultivators. Why could he only earn three thousand Immortal Jade every day while Xiao An and the others could rely on the identity of a senior elder’s disciple to do all kinds of things and earn a lot of money?    

The more he thought, the more he felt that this was unfair.    

This was not fair, this was not fair.    

He was roaring in his heart, struggling and hesitating. Finally, after hesitating for a while, he made a decision.    

Gao Ming stretched out his hand and gently grabbed at the air. The bag fell into his hand.    

His eyes were gloomy, and his face was still a little pained. He silently put the immortal jade in the bag into his waist pouch.    

When Xiao Anhe saw this, he laughed loudly and walked over. He patted Gao Ming’s shoulder and said darkly, “That’s right. We are now on the same side. We can earn money together, and we can take benefits together. Won’t we be happy together?”    

As long as Gao Ming took his benefits, he would be considered an accomplice, a collusion.    

At this time, as long as they were on the same boat, they could not go down. That was why Xiao Anhe was so complacent.    

After dealing with Gao Ming, it would be much easier to deal with such things in the future.    

Gao Ming, who had just taken a crucial step, felt a little uneasy.    

He looked at Xiao Anhe and said carefully, “If you do this, if Purple Cloud City finds out, the consequences will be very serious.”    

Xiao Anhe said arrogantly, “Are you worried? Haha, I’m not afraid. What are you afraid of? Don’t forget that I’m a member of the Xiao Family. There are people in the top. Who would dare to easily move against an elder family?”    

Hearing this, Gao Ming finally heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s true. Then it’s settled.”    

With that, Gao Ming turned around and left.    

At this time, Xiao An and stepped forward and stopped him. “You want to leave so quickly? Why don’t you stay and play with us? We have quite a few beautiful female cultivators here who can serve you and help you cultivate. Don’t you want to have a taste?”    

Xiao An and said with a wretched smile, implying something.    

As he said this, he glanced at the charming female servant beside him, hinting at her.    

Gao Ming was a little surprised, but it seemed to be very reasonable.    

“I don’t know if it is dirty or not.” He thought in his heart and then rejected Xiao An and.    

“Sorry, I’m only interested in money.” Gao Ming said coldly.    

Hearing this, Xiao An and’s expression became a little ugly, but he did not flare up. He endured it. “That’s fine. I’ll call you next time if something happens. Since you took our benefits, you should know what to do.”    

Xiao An and’s words were full of threat, and Gao Ming could also hear it.    

“I know. Once on the pirate ship, you can’t go down. I hope that your Xiao Family is a big tree that can shelter you from the wind and rain.” Gao Ming sighed.    

Xiao An and laughed wildly three times before feeling a little relieved.    

“Good, it’s good that you understand. Please.”    

Gao Ming did not say anything more and turned around to leave, like a plague god, avoiding him as if he was afraid.    

Xiao An and's face darkened after Gao Ming left. He clapped his hands and a Xiao Clan cultivator walked out from the shadows.    

"Send someone to follow Gao Ming and keep an eye on him. If there's anything suspicious, kill him immediately."    

"Understood."    

The black-clothed Xiao Clan cultivator left immediately after receiving the order.    

The seductive maidservant walked over with a smile when she saw this. She placed her soft body on Xiao An and's body and asked, "Chief, you don't trust him?"    

Xiao An's face turned cold. He turned around and glared at her. He angrily rebuked, "Don't worry about such matters."    

Xiao An impatiently pushed her away. The maidservant cried out in alarm and fell to the ground. She stared at him with a resentful expression.    

Xiao An and's expression changed when he saw this. He revealed a hypocritical smile and pulled the maidservant up.    

"Don't you feel pain from falling? I was wrong. I was just a little annoyed."    

The maidservant sighed and said, "Since that's the case, then I'll be leaving."    

As she spoke, the maidservant climbed up from the ground and left.    

Xiao An and's eyes were filled with passion when he saw this. He pulled her into his embrace. "Beauty, don't leave. Stay and accompany me."    

As he spoke, his hands started to move restlessly.    

The maidservant giggled. "Chief, you're so bad."    

“Haha, a man is not loved by a woman, isn’t it?”    

“Yes.”    

On the other side, Gao Ming left the Xiao Clan’s fishing boat with a perturbed heart.    

Standing on the deck, he looked back at the cabin and felt some doubt and uneasiness in his heart.    

As the old saying went, a man’s mouth was soft, but his hands were short.    

He took Xiao Anhe’s immortal jade, which meant that he was colluding with the pirates. If he could not wash it clean, he would only have a dark future ahead of him, and there was no other choice.    

But very quickly, he forced himself to calm down.    

“The Xiao Clan is much more generous than Purple Cloud City. It’s enough to have immortal jade, so why care so much? If you don’t have immortal jade to support your cultivation, I’m afraid you will be stuck for the rest of your life. Gamble.”    

Gao Ming’s heart was burning, and his hands were trembling. He thought about the immortal jade in the ring and calmed down again.    

“You guys, have you finished counting? After counting, get off the boat.”    

Gao Ming stood still for a while and continued to give orders.    

When the low-level cultivators heard this, they did not say anything else. Those who knew what was good for them did not continue to make things difficult for the Xiao Clan’s cultivators on the boat.    

“Captain, are we not going to continue to check?”    

“Captain, there are too few fish on the fishing boat. I’m afraid there’s something strange.”    

The two low-level cultivators said in a low voice.    

Gao Ming’s face darkened. He said, “Just now, Chief Xiao had already explained to me that we were unlucky and had too little harvest. I think it’s reasonable. Let’s go, don’t waste time.”    

"Yes."    

"Yes, captain."
