"Of course I know you don't go to sea, but this is the rule of our Feilong Trading Company. Regardless of whether you go to sea or not, as long as you want to board the ship, you have to pay the boarding fee of ten high-grade spiritual stones." Elder Xiao said calmly.
For such a guard captain, he really didn't take it seriously, even if he faced the city lord of Tianhai City, he was not afraid. Because the city lord of Zhongtian Sea City is only in the middle stage of Mahayana.
Although it is said that there is a big force behind the city lord's mansion, Feilong Trading Company has had conflicts with the city lord's mansion over the years when they have been doing business in Tianhai City. Even if the city lord Tianba is very dissatisfied with their Feilong Trading Company, He couldn't do anything to Feilong Trading Company.
After all, the tax their Feilong Trading Company pays to the City Lord's Mansion is a huge amount every year. Even if Tianba is dissatisfied with Feilong Trading Company, he will not go against Lingshi.
In addition, many of the resources Tianba needs for his cultivation are collected by Feilong Trading Company. Although Feilong Trading Company may not be the only place where Tianba collects resources, at least Feilong Trading Company does provide him with a lot of high-quality resources.
If Feilong Trading Company hadn't supported him so strongly, Tianba might not be as strong as he is now. Therefore, Tianba has a love-hate relationship with Feilong Trading Company.
But no matter what, he would not fall out with Feilong Trading Company if it was not necessary and absolutely certain.
However, Elder Xiao's tough attitude made it very difficult for the guard captain. Even if the opponent was blocked by a late Mahayana master, it was impossible for them to force their way onto the ship.
However, it was impossible for each of them to hand over ten high-grade spiritual stones before they boarded the ship.
"Then why did you let those people on board the ship when they didn't hand over the spirit stones just now?" the guard captain said.
"They were originally guests of our Feilong Trading Company. They forgot something on the boat when they got off the boat. It's understandable that they go back to the boat to get it now," Elder Xiao said.
"But I remember that your Feilong Trading Company doesn't recognize people after they get off the ship. Even if they got off the ship before, if they want to get on the ship again, they still have to hand over the spirit stone!" The guard looked at Elder Xiao, but he didn't understand at all. Believe it or not, he had a feeling that these people were shielding those people.
"That depends on the situation. As I said just now, these guests have left something on the ship. It is only natural and reasonable for them to get on the ship to look for it!" Elder Xiao didn't care whether they believed it or not.
In short, as long as he is here, these people will never get on the ship to cause trouble to Cheng Yu and the others.
"Captain, those people are only on this ship anyway. We don't believe that they will stay on the ship forever. Let's just wait here!" Seeing the captain's face angry, but helpless, a captain attached himself to the captain. whispered in his ear.
"What if they leave by boat again?" the guard captain asked worriedly.
"That doesn't matter. At least we didn't lose anything. Captain, think about it. Not only were the people who were killed back then not only about the same strength as you, but they were even stronger than you. But it wasn't because they were killed. Killed?
If these people are really the murderers, wouldn't our lives be in danger even if we really find them? If they did sail away, that might be a good thing for us.
Although finding them is a great achievement, one must also be determined to receive the merit. If they really left, we would pretend we had never seen them. What would we lose? But at least my life was saved! "The team member said softly again.
However, although his voice was low, Elder Xiao heard it clearly, with a sneer on his lips and some disdain on his face.
For him, as long as these people don't cause trouble, that's fine.
"What you said makes sense, then let's wait here, but we can't wait here stupidly. If these people are really the murderers, then this is indeed a great achievement. We can now send people back to the City Lord's Mansion , tell the city lord the news.
If the city lord is willing to take action personally, then this person surnamed Xiao may not dare to stop it. By then, our credit will not be able to escape! "The captain thought about it and thought it made sense.
However, he didn't want to take such a big credit without taking it, so he thought of a compromise method and sent the news back first.
If the city lord is willing to take action personally, the credit will be guaranteed. If the city lord is unwilling to take action, then they can only stay here temporarily.
Thinking of this, the captain waved to a team member and said a few words in his ear, and the team member ran away immediately.
Elder Xiao knew that this man had gone back to report the news, and he felt a little worried. Although he is not afraid of Tianba, the city lord of Tianhai City, it is impossible for Feilong Trading Company to completely deny him face. If he really comes, I am afraid they will have to let him board the ship to search.
Thinking of this, he didn't know how Cheng Yu and the others planned to solve this matter.
Of course, he knew very well that if what happened to Cheng Yu in Taize City was true, even destroying the main palace of Tiancheng would be an easy task.
However, he also knew that it was easy to destroy the City Lord's Mansion, but it would be troublesome to face the forces behind the City Lord's Mansion. Perhaps Cheng Yu took this into consideration, so he chose to return to the ship to avoid conflicts with these people.
I just hope Cheng Yu and the others can think of a suitable way to deal with this matter.
At this moment, a middle-aged man walked out of the cabin.
Seeing this middle-aged man, everyone turned their attention to him. It's just that Elder Xiao is a little confused. He can confirm that apart from the people from Feilong Trading Company, the only ones left on this ship are Cheng Yu and the others.
But he could definitely recognize the people from Feilong Trading Company at a glance, and he firmly believed that he had never seen this middle-aged man in the past two months.
Just when Elder Xiao was a little confused, the middle-aged man walked up to him casually and said with a smile: "Elder Xiao, I still have some things to deal with, so I won't go back to Dongzhou with you this time."
"Uh! Okay!" Although Elder Xiao was a little surprised, he was still a master in the late Mahayana period. He reacted in a short time and nodded along with the middle-aged man's words without revealing any flaws.
"Who are you?" However, when the middle-aged man got off the boat, the guard captain immediately stopped him.
"Do I still need to explain to you who I am?" Cheng Yu directly took out a token from Feilong Trading Company and said calmly.
"Are you the elder of Feilong Trading Company?" The guard captain looked at the token with some surprise, because the strength of the elders of Feilong Trading Company were basically in the late Mahayana stage. It was really surprising that this middle-aged man was in the late Mahayana stage.
After all, the late Mahayana people are still very high in the world of cultivation, especially those who are middle-aged, they must be extremely talented people.
