"What, do you want to make a symbolic struggle?"
At this moment, the pirates saw Qin Xiao standing out from the crowd.
Symbolic... Upon hearing these words, Captain Heider couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth a few times, cursing inwardly, "Truly the ignorant are fearless."
You think you can ridicule him?
Sure enough.
Just as Captain Heider imagined, with a loud bang, without anyone seeing any movement from Qin Xiao, a pirate was sent flying into the air and with astonishing speed, was flung out.
Crack.
He crashed into the mast on the deck and fell into the sea, his life and death unknown.
What followed was silence.
"Clap clap clap."
After a moment, applause broke the silence.
Everyone turned to look, not understanding what the woman meant by clapping her hands.
"Kid, I admit I underestimated you."
"Being able to kill a Soul Elder-level expert in an instant under my Soul Force Pressure, your strength must be at least that of a Soul King, or perhaps even a Soul Emperor like myself?"
Purple Pearl's tone gradually grew heavier.
Such a young powerhouse was indeed hard to ignore.
"Soul King, Soul Emperor..."
Qin Xiao shook his head.
In the next moment, with a thought, soul rings emerged one by one from beneath his feet.
But.
Everyone forgot to count the number of soul rings that Qin Xiao had.
The color of the first soul ring was simply too shocking.
"What's going on, the first soul ring is a hundred-thousand-year soul ring?"
"No, this isn't an illusion. It's color blindness, I must be color blind, unable to distinguish red from yellow."
"If you're going to say that, I think I'm color blind too. No one has a hundred-thousand-year soul ring as their first, no one!"
"..."
The pirates on the deck were stunned.
Even Captain Heider thought so.
"Show some pride, open your damn eyes and see clearly, that is a hundred-thousand-year soul ring!"
Purple Pearl's voice, like a thunderclap, rang in everyone's ears.
"What the hell, a hundred-thousand-year soul ring!"
"Wait, it's not just a hundred-thousand-year soul ring, look at the number of soul rings on his body."
"Nine, there are actually nine soul rings!"
"Titled Douluo-level expert, how is this possible!"
"..."
Everyone was as if struck by lightning.
Damn it.
A Titled Douluo, a legendary powerhouse, today they had seen a living one.
It's just that the current stance between us is a bit awkward.
The weaker one feels embarrassed.
"Something's not right, if you say he's a Titled Douluo-level Expert, why don't I feel any pressure?"
Soon, someone raised a question.
"Don't talk nonsense, of course you don't feel the pressure. It's all on me."
Purple Pearl spat out through clenched teeth.
Everyone instinctively turned around, only to see Purple Pearl biting her lips, sweat dripping down, her body seeming to bear a heavy burden.
"Do you have anything you want to say now?"
Qin Xiao glanced at Purple Pearl and asked indifferently.
"Your Highness, if I say this was a misunderstanding... you wouldn't believe me, would you?"
Purple Pearl squeezed out a smile on her face.
There was no doubt she was filled with regret.
Qin Xiao didn't bother to waste his breath, "Live or die, make your choice."
"Of course, to live."
Purple Pearl answered almost without hesitation, "Your Highness, whatever you wish, I'll have as many children as you want."
In an instant, Purple Pearl's mind changed several times; she suddenly felt that this young man, who was far stronger than herself, wasn't so bad after all.
"Hmm?" Qin Xiao frowned slightly at her words, then stomped his foot lightly.
A powerful Soul Force Pressure burst out, landing on Purple Pearl and forcing her to prostrate on the ground.
"Captain!"
Some pirates cried out, seeing her state.
But before they could do anything, an enormous pressure also fell upon them.
Thump thump thump.
Like dumplings, over a dozen pirates landed face-first onto the deck.
"Tap tap tap."
At that moment, Qin Xiao's footsteps were clearly audible.
He approached Purple Pearl, slowly crouched down, gently lifted her chin with his hand, his gaze meeting her eyes, "How do you think you should answer my question?"
In contrast, Purple Pearl trembled.
In her mind, it was as if a giant as tall as the heavens looked down at her coldly.
Life, freedom...
And everything she had was no longer in her own hands.
She felt as fragile as an ant, as if this man could crush her with a flick of his finger.
"I want to live."
Purple Pearl said with difficulty.
But it seemed to her she was being too vague and added, "But I want to live with dignity."
"An interesting person."
Qin Xiao gave a faint smile.
He heard the underlying meaning in Purple Pearl's words; she didn't want to die, but if she had to live like a puppet, she would rather die.
"Then I'll give you a chance. Do something for me, and I can spare you."
"What... thing?" Purple Pearl hesitated for a moment but still asked bravely.
"Don't be so nervous, it's just a small matter."
Qin Xiao said with a slight smile, "Take me to Sea God's Island, and you arrange someone to deliver news from Soul Land to me every seven days."
He had no choice.
Who made it so that even when he left Soul Land, there was still a mess to clean up.
