This Void Devouring Flame seems a bit strange
Chapter 83 The Girl Named Lingjue
"What?" The priest's face under the cloak briefly showed a surprised expression, and then flashed a touch of ecstasy, and then pretended to be calm: "Friend, this is not a joke."
"Sir, please go away quickly. This matter has nothing to do with you." The girl spoke again.
"Ah, I'm so sorry. I'm the kind of person who always does the opposite of what others ask me to do." Void Swallowing Flame looked at the priest with a smile, and that smile made the priest feel a little uneasy. "Why? You don't want the sacrifices that are delivered to your door? Or does the Sea God have a poor appetite and will feel bloated if he eats two?"
"Master Priest, why waste time talking to this kind of person! If he wants to go down, let him go down!"
"Yes, maybe with one more sacrifice, the sea god will bless us longer!"
The onlookers also started to make a fuss, after all, such an outsider being taken advantage of was rare.
The priest stared at Void Devouring Flame and said, "Friend, you have to think carefully."
"What are you talking about? Hurry up!"
"Well, before that, you have to eat this first."
As the priest spoke, he took out a crystal clear object that looked like a ball.
"The gallbladder of the blue ice sea snake... Interesting." Xuwu Tunyan took it without hesitation and swallowed it in one gulp. "If you don't understand, then ask. Is this considered a condiment for the fat meat given to the Sea God?"
Listening to Xuwu Tunyan's joking words, the priest felt a little angry in his heart. Even though he himself had a lot of wealth, he had secretly amassed a lot of money in recent years by using his status as a priest. It took him a lot of effort to get the gallbladder of the blue ice sea snake.
If it wasn't to ensure that this sacrifice was foolproof, why would I have spent so much money? And now this guy is actually making fun of me!
But thinking that this guy was going to be killed soon, he suppressed his anger, waved the long staff in his hand, and the guards immediately came over with a pair of shackles.
In the prison of the Gama Empire, Xuwu Tunyan had seen this kind of shackles before. Unlike ordinary shackles, this one was made of special metal. Like seastone, this metal could suppress fighting spirit, making it impossible for the handcuffed person to use fighting spirit to fight or protect himself.
This also further confirmed Xuwu Tunyan's idea. Whether it was the blue ice sea snake gall just now, or the shackles that suppressed the fighting spirit, they were not something that ordinary people could get. This priest was indeed very problematic.
Xuwu Tunyan obediently put on the shackles and was stuffed into the iron cage with the girl. Anyway, to him, this thing was no different from being made of paper.
At this time, something strange happened in the sky. Weird air currents surged everywhere, bubbles began to appear on the sea surface, and schools of fish rushed out of the sea frantically. All the scenes indicated that something unexpected was about to happen here.
"Supreme Sea God, I am here to offer you two living sacrifices! Please once again bestow your great power and protect us!"
After delivering a "pious" prayer, the priest swung his long staff and the guards skillfully pushed the iron cage down.
The iron cage fell into the sea, splashing a large amount of water. The originally turbulent sea surface also calmed down for a while.
The girl closed her eyes, not because she was afraid, but simply because she didn't want to see the miserable plight of the poor stranger next to her.
What made the girl feel a little strange was that she had closed her eyes for almost a minute, but she didn't feel the sea water rushing into her mouth and nose. What happened? She clearly felt the iron cage being pushed down just now.
"Hey, are you asleep?"
The voice of Void Devouring Flame came from her ears, and she subconsciously opened her eyes. The scene in front of her made her scream out.
At this moment, she was in a huge bubble with Void Devourer, and near the bubble, she could see the shackles and iron cage that had been removed. Obviously, this was Void Devourer's masterpiece.
"Sir, you..." The girl stared at Xuwu Tunyan in a daze. Even if the shackles and iron cage were on the ground, it would be difficult for ordinary people to break them, let alone in the water. But this man broke them easily.
"This kind of shackles is somewhat useful for ordinary fighters and masters, but it is useless to me. As for using fighting spirit to displace the surrounding water, it is also easy for me. Otherwise, how do you think I dare to come down directly?" Void Swallowing Flame laughed, "I don't believe in any sea god. That priest is ten or even nine out of ten with problems."
"You say he has problems? But he was indeed the one who resolved the previous disasters..."
"This is why I came down." Void Devouring Flame explained, "Who would believe a Dou King who stays here disguised as a priest and says he has no other purpose?"
"Fighting King? How is that possible?" The girl knew very well that Fighting King might not be a big deal in other places, but here, it was no exaggeration to say that Fighting King was the overlord.
"Generally speaking, it's really impossible, but if it happens, there must be a reason."
"Is that so...Sir, thank you for saving me."
"No need to thank me, I just came here out of curiosity and wanted to help."
"Well, I don't know your name yet."
"Xu Yan."
"Okay, thank you Mr. Xu Yan, my name is Ling Jue."
"Ling?" Xuwu Tunyan had a hint of amusement on his face. "This surname is not common."
When the surname "Ling" was mentioned, Xuwu Tunyan's first reaction was to think of the Ling clan, one of the eight ancient clans. However, he just thought of it. Gu He and Gu Te also had the surname Gu, but they had nothing to do with the Gu clan at all.
Ling Jue paused for a moment and said, "Because... I was an abandoned baby. My adoptive parents told me that when they went to cut wood near the forest, my brother and I suddenly appeared in the middle of the forest. They were afraid that we would be eaten by monsters, so they took us home."
"Then did your adoptive parents agree to your being used as a sacrifice this time? Even if they adopted you, it's impossible that they don't have any feelings for you, right?"
Ling Jue's eyes dimmed for a moment: "They... were in a hurry to rescue people during the previous tsunami, and they never came back."
"Oh, sorry."
"That's why I hope that if my sacrifice can prevent other families from experiencing this kind of thing, then it doesn't matter if I am a sacrifice."
Xuwu Tunyan felt a little emotional. He admired those who were willing to sacrifice for others. However, in such a cruel place, kindness was often eliminated.
"Moreover, they promised that if I was sacrificed, they would be able to save my brother."
"Save your brother?" The complaining soul in Xuwu Tunyan's heart began to stir again. Adopting, saving his brother, and offering sacrifices to the gods, this plot is too similar to an old game he had played before!
"Yes, he..." Ling Jue was about to continue speaking when a violent shaking sound interrupted her.
The trembling sound was extremely strange, and with the help of water, it even had a soul-stirring feeling. The people on the coast all lay on the ground, fearing that they were not pious enough and thus angered the sea god.
"Hey, it seems that the so-called [Sea God] has appeared. Very good, let me see what kind of god you are."
