Chapter 1843 (Raw 1854): A Pirate’s Heart

Xiao Chen’s bow out of nowhere confused the little monk. He half-cried-half-laughed as he said, “Big Brother, I am not an esteemed monk or a Buddha. There is no point in paying respects or praying to me. Both of us still have to die here.”

However, right after the little monk spoke, he saw a large Buddha image behind Xiao Chen.

That Buddha image smiled, emanating a supreme Buddhist Might.

That was not the strangest thing. The strangest thing was that this large Buddha image seemed to be smiling at him.

“Who said that we would die here?”

Xiao Chen looked up and smiled at the little monk, feeling closer to him.

“That’s not it! Big Brother, I saw a Buddha behind you earlier!” The little monk was incredibly shocked. Fearing that Xiao Chen would not believe him, he said in a serious tone, “It’s true! It really was a great Buddha. Furthermore, he even smiled at me.”

Of course, Xiao Chen believed him. However, he did not tell Yan Chen the reason. “Illusion. It’s just an illusion.”

“Just an illusion? It’s clearly not. Oh, right, Big Brother, did you just say that we won’t have to die here?” the little monk said in pleasant surprise, his attention diverted.

Xiao Chen nodded. “I never said that we would definitely die if we couldn’t find an exit. It is just that we will have to take some risks.”

“What is the method?” the little monk asked curiously, his interest piqued.

Xiao Chen did not answer. He only took out the Scarlet Blood War Banner and grasped it tightly with his hands.

Then, he closed his eyes and sensed around for the Black Cutlass that was wandering the Ash Gray Sea. His essence blood and soul were already merged with the Immemorial Demon Soul Formation.

No matter how far the Black Cutlass was, as long as Xiao Chen focused, he could sense it.

This was because the Black Cutlass was already a part of him.

I see it. I see it...

A scene slowly appeared in Xiao Chen’s mind. Xiao Suo and the others were on the Black Cutlass, sailing on the sea in that scene.

People moved about the ship. The strange Black Cutlass had a layer of blood mist covering it as it bobbed with the waves.

Xiao Chen’s consciousness slowly entered the Black Cutlass. Soon, he saw the Immemorial Demon Soul Formation at the bottom floor.

There was a terrifying heartbeat in the depths of the scarlet formation, pounding away heavily.

An extremely terrifying ferocious beast seemed to be grinning amid the hazy blood mist.

As the little monk stood beside Xiao Chen, he suddenly sensed a terrifying Demonic Might coming from him.

Xiao Chen’s long hair fluttered about, and his eyes turned pitch-black, filled with demonic nature. No one would dare to look directly at his eyes.

Slowly, this Demonic Might strengthened. If not for the Heart Force here blocking it, it would have soared into the sky and manifested a great mysterious phenomenon.

“Not good.”

The little monk sensed that something was not right. He quickly rolled away on the ground.

“Bang!” A demonic ship with blood mist spreading all over it appeared out of nowhere.

Xiao Chen stood at the bow of the ship as Xiao Suo and the others, who were in the ship, charged out onto the deck. They were all on their guard and appeared confused.

When everyone saw Xiao Chen, who was at the bow, their expressions relaxed.

“Young Master Xiao, what is going on?” Elder Tang and the others asked, still confused.

“I’ll tell you later. Xiao Suo, come over here.”

Xiao Chen turned around and withdrew his Demonic Might, reverting to his usual self, and looked at Xiao Suo.

Xiao Suo felt that something was off. His instinct told him that something big was about to happen to him.

“Big Brother, what’s wrong?” Xiao Suo asked Xiao Chen, feeling anxious and nervous.

Xiao Chen did not say anything. He spread his palm, and the Faux God Flame that the Scarlet Blood Pirate King left behind appeared, hovering in the air.

Senior, what do you think of this person?

This is the person you chose for me? His talent is average, very ordinary. He is rather old.

Just when Xiao Chen thought that it would not work out, the Faux God Flame changed tunes as its voice rang out in his mind again. However, he does indeed have a pure pirate’s heart. This is something you lack but is the thing I value the most. Back then, I possessed average talents and resources as well. As long as one maintains a pure pirate’s heart, one can become a legendary Pirate King. This is no exception, no matter what age it is.

Xiao Chen smiled faintly. It was indeed more or less what he expected. Back then, when the Scarlet Blood Pirate King’s will said that he lacked something, he already guessed that he lacked a pirate’s heart.

That was not where Xiao Chen’s ambitions lay. How could he have a pirate’s heart? That was very normal.

“Xiao Suo, this clump of flame represents the Scarlet Blood Pirate King’s inheritance. Today, I will pass this fortuitous encounter to you on behalf of Senior Scarlet Blood Pirate King. I hope that you will not let down the reputation of the Scarlet Blood Pirate King and that you maintain your own pirate’s heart,” Xiao Chen said seriously, emphasizing every word.

“Big Brother...I... This fortuitous encounter is too great. I cannot accept it. I do not have great ambition. I am satisfied with just being able to drift about the great sea for the rest of my life. Big Brother, you are the one—” Xiao Suo wanted to say more, but Xiao Chen directly cut him off.

“Stop arguing. Back then, even I overlooked the Scarlet Blood War Banner in that auction. It was you. You were the one who personally bid for this war banner. It is fated by heaven. This fortuitous encounter was prepared by heaven for you, Xiao Suo,” Xiao Chen said with a smile.

Before Xiao Suo could refuse, the Faux God Flame in Xiao Chen’s hand directly shot into Xiao Suo’s forehead.

“Whoosh!”

A fierce flame immediately blazed on Xiao Suo’s body. An incredibly vast aura surged out from him.

Without exception, Xiao Chen and the others on the deck were swept away by this aura.

The Iron Hand Yama and Elder Tang, who were rather knowledgeable, were petrified on the spot, feeling extremely shocked.

“Faux God Flame. This is the legendary Faux God Flame.”

The Iron Hand Yama muttered, “It really is a Faux God Flame. Furthermore, it is the Faux God Flame of the legendary Scarlet Blood Pirate King.”

Suddenly, the Iron Hand Yama thought of something. He looked at Xiao Chen and asked, “Xiao Chen, did you snatch it from Yan Zhe?”

Xiao Chen shook his head and replied, “No.”

Indeed, Xiao Chen had not. He had taken it right before the eyes of ten or so Holy Venerates, including Yan Zhe, and many Demonic Dao sect true inheritors.

“Where is Yan Zhe?”

Elder Tang and the Iron Hand Yama looked around, feeling cautious and fearful.

Clearly, Yan Zhe had made a huge impression on these two, practically an insurmountable mental barrier.

The little monk Yan Chen ran over happily, showing a cocky expression as he said, “Hehe! I killed him with one saber strike.”

“Where did this little baldy come from? Just focus on chanting your scriptures and stop stirring things up here.”

The Iron Hand Yama stared in bewilderment at the little monk, not believing him at all. If it were in the past, when he had a bad temper, he would have directly shoved the little monk away.

Xiao Chen said softly, “Yan Zhe did indeed die at his hands. Without him, I would not have survived. Let me make some introductions. He is a Buddhist sect expert of the Central Great Realm. His nickname is...”

“Ahem! Ahem!” The little monk coughed in protest.

Xiao Chen smiled and continued, “His nickname is not important. Most importantly, Yan Zhe did die at his hands. There is no need to worry about Yan Zhe appearing again in the future.”

The Iron Hand Yama and Elder Tang showed shocked expressions, disbelief written across their faces as they gaped at the little monk.

However, since Xiao Chen said it, it was definitely true.

“It was just a matter of convenience. Seniors, there is no need to be too shocked.”

The little monk Yan Chen smiled faintly with the air of an expert.

“Whoosh!”

Just at this moment, Xiao Suo’s aura quickly withdrew.

In the next moment, he opened his eyes, and a brilliant light flashed in them before disappearing.

Xiao Suo’s cultivation did not improve, but his gaze seemed deep and calm. Everyone now felt that he was extraordinary.

The Iron Hand Yama and Elder Tang both showed envious expressions.

Of course, the two did not have any complaints. Xiao Chen risked his life to obtain this Faux God Flame.

The two would not mind, no matter whom Xiao Chen gave the inheritance to. It was just a little hard not to feel disappointed.

“Big Brother.”

Xiao Suo leaped over and landed before Xiao Chen. Then, Xiao Chen nodded slightly.

“I’ve already obtained the complete memories of the Scarlet Blood Pirate King. Although the treasures on the stone pillars are hard to take out, the entire body of the Scarlet Blood Pirate King is a huge treasure trove. What you saw is merely the tip of the iceberg.”

Xiao Suo’s aura was now much stabler. As he spoke about this shocking matter, he was extremely calm and unflustered.

Xiao Chen was not surprised at Xiao Suo’s words. He knew that the entire one hundred thousand great peaks were the Scarlet Blood Pirate King’s body. Just the Scarlet Blood Pirate King’s body alone already had immeasurable value.

However, this was not what Xiao Chen was concerned about at the moment. He said, “Right now, there are some Sovereign Personages in the Scarlet Blood Pirate King’s body. We are also trapped here and cannot get out.”

Xiao Suo smiled calmly. “This is simple.”

Xiao Suo gently snapped his fingers. A mark appeared in the bodies of Xiao Chen and the others.

In the next moment, Xiao Suo snapped his fingers again. “Done. I sent out those people who don’t have the Scarlet Blood Mark on their bodies. The cave entrance is also closed. After I inherited the Scarlet Blood Pirate King’s will, even if Sovereign Personages gather in this place, they will have to obey the Scarlet Blood Pirate King’s will.

“Come, let’s go to the blazing sea of blood. The Scarlet Blood Warship that the Scarlet Blood Pirate King left behind is there!”
