Douluo Continent V: Suppressing Tang San with the Might of the Super Beast God

Chapter 44 Encountering Purple Pearl, Ah Yin Reappears

"Your Highness, the welcome soup is ready. Please move to the cabin with your ladies."

A guard in white armor walked up to Qiu Hougong and bowed.

"Alright, please lead the way."

Qiu Hougong nodded, then helped Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong, whose faces looked rather pale, walk towards the cabin...

Five days later, the Hunter-class warship successfully reached the deep sea under the skillful navigation of its crew.

However, just as the warship was about to pass through an area where sea spirit beasts were active, the appearance of two gray figures broke the tranquility on the warship.

"Brother Qiu, look..."

Standing by the railing, Zhu Zhuqing, dressed in a leather jacket, pointed to two boats fifty meters away and said, "There are people being chased over there, and the pursuers will catch up soon."

"Chasing them? Are they fishermen?"

Qiu Hougong, who was sitting on a recliner and drinking juice, immediately sat up and asked.

"No, judging from the flags on their ships, both groups are pirates."

Zhu Zhuqing replied.

"Oh, they're all pirates, then..."

Qiu Hougong turned his head in the direction Zhu Zhuqing pointed. Just as he was about to order the warships to catch up and capture both groups of pirates, a flag on a pirate ship made Qiu Hougong change his mind. "Dong'er, please go and inform the captain to speed up and advance on the two ships ahead. I'll go and help them first."

"Okay, I'll go now."

Bibi Dong, sitting next to Qiu Hou Gong, nodded. Although she didn't know why Qiu Hou Gong was in such a hurry, it didn't affect her support for every decision he made.

"Well, I'm leaving."

After Qiu Hougong finished speaking, he immediately summoned the Phoenix Feather Super Beast and flew away into the distance...

Pirate ship, the Purple Pearl.

After stretching her arms a few times, Purple Pearl, who had already summoned her martial soul—the Sea Viper—urged the crew to accelerate at full speed while keeping her eyes fixed on the pirate ship that was getting closer and closer behind them.

However, just as Purple Pearl was preparing for a desperate battle, she suddenly felt the sky darken and instinctively looked up. She saw a giant, deep red bird, over twenty meters long, suddenly appear above the two pirate ships, startling the pirates on both ships into stopping what they were doing.

"Could this be a 100,000-year-old soul beast? But why does it look so strange?"

Looking at the enormous bird in the sky, Purple Pearl murmured, "This is the first time I've encountered such a huge flying soul beast at sea."

While the two pirate ships were pondering the origins of the giant bird in the sky, Qiu Hougong, inside the Phoenix Feather Beast, was also looking at Purple Pearl.

Character assessment: He has a fiery temper and hates evil. Although he is a pirate, he actually does chivalrous deeds.

"A Soul Emperor in her twenties, she's much more powerful than Qin Ming."

After reading the information about Purple Pearl, Qiu Hougong nodded, then looked down at Purple Pearl, who was still staring at him, and said, "Are you Purple Pearl?"

"Indeed, may I ask what business you have with me, senior?"

Upon hearing Qiu Hougong's voice, Purple Pearl spoke respectfully. Because she had previously encountered Little White, the guardian spirit beast of Seagod Island, the Demon Soul Great White Shark, she wasn't surprised that a high-level spirit beast could speak human language.

"Don't be afraid, I mean no harm..."

Seeing that Purple Pearl was nervous, Qiu Hougong deactivated his super beast form and landed in front of her. Then, with a smile, he pointed to the pirate ship opposite and asked, "Who are they? Why are they chasing you?"

"So it was a human! Could that strange big bird just now have been his true martial spirit form?"

Looking at Qiu Hougong's handsome face, which was so striking it would make the lake water boil, Purple Pearl was about to speak when she was interrupted by the movement of the pirate ship behind Qiu Hougong. "Watch out!"

"Don't worry, they're just a bunch of trash about to go to another world."

Qiu Hougong smiled slightly, and then several beams of light flew past his left side, followed by a sound of crying and wailing from the pirate ship opposite.

"Xiao Qiu, should we deal with the pirates on that ship right here?"

Huo Xingying, who had jumped to Qiu Hougong's side and brought a small group of guards to the Purple Pearl Ship, reached out and put her arm around his arm and said softly.

"No rush, first cripple their cultivation, then have them escorted back to Hanhai City to await public trial..."

After giving his instructions with a smile, Qiu Hougong put his arm around Huoxing Ying's slender waist, then turned to Zi Zhenzhu, who was once again shocked, and said, "Captain Zi Zhenzhu, can you answer my question now?"

"Of course, of course you can..."

Purple Pearl glanced at the massive warship beside her, knowing that the other party must be an important figure, and nodded. Then she told Qiu Hougong what had happened between her and the pirate crew opposite her...

"Oh, so you fought against the 'Red Nose' pirates because you couldn't stand them bullying the fishermen..."

After listening to Zi Zhenzhu's account, Qiu Hougong, knowing that Zi Zhenzhu would not lie, first pretended to ask the guards who lived in Hanhai City for verification. After obtaining accurate information, he cupped his hands to Zi Zhenzhu and said, "Captain Zi Zhenzhu is chivalrous and righteous, I admire her."

"I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it..."

Seeing Qiu Hougong's reaction, Zi Zhenzhu quickly waved her hand, "I only did what I could, it's nothing."

"Hey, Captain Purple is being modest..."

Qiu Hougong smiled and waved his hand, then said, "The sea is getting rougher, and the sea spirit beasts are active. Why don't you take your men and board my ship first, and I'll take you back to your territory?"

"Then thank you very much, sir."

Purple Pearl agreed. Although she didn't know Qiu Hougong's background, she couldn't refuse now that things were going on.

"Captain Purple, please don't stand on ceremony."

After Qiu Hougong finished speaking, he led Zi Zhenzhu and her crew toward the Hunter...

Half a day later, Qiu Hougong and his group arrived safely at Pearl Island, the territory of the Purple Pearl Pirates, under the guidance of Purple Pearl.

After arriving on the island, Purple Pearl warmly welcomed Qiu Hougong and the others, and the group's relationship became closer through the banquet.

It was evening, inside the cabin of the Hunter.

Lying in bed, Qiu Hougong, having just attended the banquet, was enjoying the dessert that Bibi Dong and the others had carefully prepared.

Beside him, the women who weren't eating with Qiu Hougong were exercising under Xiao Wu's guidance.

"Xiao Wu, you should take a rest..."

After licking the jam that had dripped to the rim of the cup, Qiu Hougong looked at Xiao Wu and the others and said, "We are all advanced Soul Masters. Eating more food won't ruin your figures."

"No way~ I feel like I've gained a little weight, I have to work out."

Xiao Wu shook her head and said this, and the other beauties beside her all nodded in agreement with her.

"Well... okay, you guys continue..."

Seeing this, Qiu Hougong knew he couldn't stop Xiaowu and the others, so he could only offer his support.

"Xiao Qiu, the reason you suddenly changed your route and came to Pearl Island today is because of the purple pearl, right?"

After a while, Qian Renxue suddenly came to Qiu Hougong and said.

"Yes, Sister Xue, you guessed it all along."

Qiu Hougong nodded and said.

"Hmph~ It wasn't just Sister Xue who guessed it, we all knew..."

Hu Liena also came to Qiu Hougong's side, reached out her small hand and gently poked Qiu Hougong's forehead, saying, "Tell me~ Do you need us to do anything for you this time?"

"No need, Sister Nana, I can do it myself."

Qiu Hougong said with a smile.

"You brat..."

Bibi Dong sat down next to Qiu Hougong and gently tapped him with her jade-like hand. "Looking at you like this, I really want to teach you a lesson."

"Alright, then please teach me a lesson, Dong'er."

Qiu Hougong winked at Bibi Dong, and then...

A day and a half later, Qiu Hougong and his group became even more familiar with Zi Zhenzhu.

Besides that, there was another thing that made Qiu Hougong very happy today: A Yin broke through to 100,000 years old.

"A-Yin, are you ready?"

On a deserted open space on Pearl Island, Qiu Hougong, dressed in a black robe, looked at the golden blue silver grass that was already as big as a small tree in the distance and spoke.

"Reporting to Master, Ah Yin is ready."

A soft, sweet voice emanated from the golden blue silver grass, and the surrounding blue silver grasses all bowed their leaves toward the golden blue silver grass, as if paying their respects.

"Okay, let's begin. I will help you accelerate your cultivation while you are retaking the course."

Qiu Hougong, having activated the Holy Tiger Armor Mode, spoke.

"Yes, Master."

After A-Yin agreed, the huge leaves began to close rapidly under her control, and then her body began to emit bursts of glowing light.

"White Snow, Holy Radiance!"

Seeing that Ah Yin had already begun to act, Qiu Hougong also formed hand seals and transmitted his alien energy to Ah Yin.

hum...

Twenty minutes later, the closed leaves gradually began to open, and a blue figure gradually appeared before Qiu Hougong's eyes.

"After raising it for so long, it's finally finished."

As Qiu Hougong watched Ah Yin gracefully walk towards him, he felt a pang of emotion, but at the same time, a not-so-good thought about someone also surfaced in his mind.

"Blue Silver Emperor A-Yin greets his master."

Ah Yin walked up to Qiu Hougong and bowed.

"No need for formalities..."

Pulling himself back to reality, Qiu Hougong stepped forward and helped A Yin up, saying, "From now on, you don't need to call me master, because we are family."

"Yes... my... husband..."

Ah Yin nodded with a flushed face, then looked at Qiu Hougong with incredibly gentle eyes and said softly, "Husband, I have a request, and I hope you can grant it."

“Please speak freely, my lady. I will agree to whatever you ask.”

Qiu Hougong said to A Yin with a smile.

"I wish..."

Ah Yin whispered a few words to Qiu Hougong, then slowly returned to her previous position and softly said, "I wonder if my husband would agree?"

"Huh? This..."

Upon hearing Ah Yin's invitation to form a team, Qiu Hougong, who hadn't expected Ah Yin to be so direct, paused for a second before saying, "Madam, do you really intend to do this? Don't you think it's too early?"

"It's not early, because I already had this idea when my husband was helping me nourish my body..."

As Ah Yin spoke, her beautiful face grew increasingly red, "So, I beg my husband to grant my request."

"Alright, since Madam has made up her mind, let's go back to the ship now."

Qiu Hougong nodded, but just as he was about to take A Yin back to the Hunter's Ship, A Yin stopped him, saying, "Wait, husband. We don't need to go there."

"No need to go there? Then where shall we go?"

Qiu Hougong turned around and asked.

"It's fine here..."

After Ah Yin finished speaking softly, thousands of thick Blue Silver Emperor Grass leaves immediately surrounded them...

In the following two months, Qiu Hougong not only spent more time with A Yin, but also never stopped his plan to win over Zi Zhenzhu.

Today, Qiu Hougong, carrying Zizhenzhu's delicate body, entered Zizhenzhu's boudoir amidst the smiling gazes of Bibi Dong and the other women. Within two and a half hours, Zizhenzhu's favorability towards Qiu Hougong reached one hundred.

"My lord, are we setting off for Seagod Island tomorrow?"

Slightly panting, with her pretty face flushed, Zi Zhenzhu nestled obediently in Qiu Hougong's arms and whispered.

"No, let's set off again in a week."

Qiu Hougong shook his head, gently patted Zi Zhenzhu's fragrant shoulder with his large hand, and said softly.

"A week later? Why is that?"

Purple Pearl asked with some doubt.

"Because you need to rest, my darling."

Qiu Hougong smiled and pinched Zi Zhenzhu's fair and tender face affectionately.
