Chapter 231 Are You Ready to Die?

After Xiao Yunlong and the others went ashore, they discovered that more than ten advanced cannons were placed on the platform next to the port.

Although there were many martial artists from Geek Island next to the gun emplacements, they stood ready throughout the entire process and did not intend to fire.

"Good heavens, when did Geek Island get these cannons? Fortunately, they didn't fire just now, otherwise, we would have been in danger!" exclaimed the boatman who had followed Xiao Yunlong.

Xiao Yunlong sneered faintly, "So what if they fired? Even if they blew up the ship, at this distance, we could still swim over!"

"That's true!" The boatman nodded and added, "They didn't stop us after we all landed, they just watched us coldly. It seems they don't take us seriously. Could it be that they have already set up traps inside, waiting for us to fall into them? Mr. Xiao, what should we do next?"

Xiao Yunlong let out a soft snort and immediately strode forward, with over three hundred soldiers from the Eastern Domain Camp following him in a disciplined manner.

As they entered the dense forest path ahead, a burly one-eyed man carrying a broad sabre with a ghost head on his shoulder, leading more than ten subordinates, approached them. Of course, various martial artists from Geek Island were still hidden in the surrounding forest.

Although the two sides had not yet clashed, the atmosphere was becoming increasingly tense, and everyone's nerves were becoming more and more taut.

"Hahaha... I presume you are Xiao Yunlong, boy. You truly have the guts of a dog. Not only did you kill two island masters of Geek Island, but you dare to attack Geek Island now. Isn't this like a frog burrowing into a snake's hole to seek its own death!"

The Fifth Island Master, the one-eyed man, laughed coldly, his laughter filled with arrogance and mockery.

Xiao Yunlong just looked at him coldly, too lazy to speak.

"You are indeed arrogant, boy. Since that's the case, come with me. I'll take you to see the other island masters. Oh, I forgot to mention, I am the Fifth Island Master of Geek Island!" The one-eyed man grinned, revealing a row of large yellow teeth.

Xiao Yunlong, too lazy to bother with the other party, simply walked forward. However, after the brief contact just now, he had already roughly assessed the one-eyed man's martial arts cultivation. He was at the Wu Wang realm with three flowers gathering at the peak, and his Wu Wang cultivation was already quite profound. To have cultivated to such a martial arts realm at the age of over forty was indeed extraordinary.

"This dog, I will tear you into eight pieces later!" The one-eyed man glared at Xiao Yunlong's retreating back and spat fiercely, then followed.

Passing through the dense forest path, they reached a row of villas. Led by the one-eyed man, Xiao Yunlong walked directly towards the tallest and most magnificent courtyard in the center.

As the saying goes, courage comes with skill. At this moment, Xiao Yunlong was calm and composed, without any fear or hesitation. He only brought a few junior generals and walked in. As for the more than three hundred soldiers of the Eastern Domain Camp he brought, they remained at the entrance. Of course, these soldiers were mostly elites from the two commanders, and their individual combat strength was already very strong. Now, they had also formed simple military formations among themselves. Unless they encountered extremely powerful martial arts experts, it would be difficult for the martial artists gathering on the island to break through their defenses in a short period.

Just as Xiao Yunlong stepped into the courtyard, two figures suddenly appeared on the cliff face north of Geek Island. An old man and a young man, both wearing loose white samurai uniforms with black borders. They stood on the cliff, the sea breeze rustling their uniforms. The old man was white-haired, even his eyebrows were snow-white, looking at least eighty years old, but his spirit was still vigorous, and his eyes were sharp and bright, making it clear at a glance that this old man was extraordinary. The young man was about eighteen years old, looking very handsome. He held a black sword in his arms, gazing at the vast and boundless sea ahead, with a deep coldness and disdain in his eyes. Both of them wore wooden clogs, and from their attire, it could be seen that they were both Fusang samurai!

"Young Master, I just received news that Xiao Yunlong has landed and has gone deep into the forest," the old Fusang samurai suddenly spoke, his words carrying a sense of respect for the young man before him.

The young Fusang samurai did not respond, but gazed at the blue sea and said leisurely, "Look, how vast the sky is, how blue the sea is, and even the island has a unique scenery. This place is truly beautiful!"

"Young Master... what is this? Did you hear what the old servant said just now?" The old Fusang samurai was probably confused by the young man's irrelevant remarks.

The young Fusang samurai's gaze finally retracted from the distance, and he smiled faintly, "To be honest, in such a beautiful place, I really don't want that Xiao Yunlong to die here. There's an old saying in Long Country, isn't there? A single rotten apple spoils the barrel. Yes, that's the meaning."

The old Fusang samurai understood now and chuckled, "Young Master, if you truly don't want to ruin such a good place, then we can capture that kid surnamed Xiao and bring him back to receive a fair and just trial, and then slice the flesh from his body piece by piece, letting him die by a thousand cuts!" As he said this, the old Fusang samurai's tone was calm and indifferent, as if he were stating something that should be done.

The young Fusang samurai chuckled, "Let's do as you say, let's go!" With that, the young Fusang samurai leaped off the cliff. The old Fusang samurai called from behind, "Young Master, that fellow surnamed Xiao from Long Country seems to be not weak, and those old guys from Geek Island are not easy to deal with either. We'd better wait for them..."

"I know, when the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits. I understand that principle!" The young Fusang samurai said without looking back, his words and actions filled with deep arrogance. It could be seen that this was an extremely conceited and proud samurai youth, especially the ink-black sword in his hand, which emitted a strange black light under the sunlight.

At this very moment, Xiao Yunlong had already entered the courtyard. As soon as he entered, he saw four people! In the left corner, a middle-aged man in white was leaning against a big tree, with a colorful snake coiled around his neck! On the pavilion on the right, two old men were playing chess. Under the eaves of the central courtyard, there was a dwarf old man whistling and teasing a canary in a cage. To Xiao Yunlong's arrival, these four people were oblivious, as if they hadn't noticed him at all.

Xiao Yunlong frowned slightly. The unusual and bizarre scene in the courtyard was far beyond his expectations. Of course, Xiao Yunlong also sensed at this moment that the four people in the courtyard were all unusual. The one playing with the snake was full of sinister and poisonous intent. The two old men playing chess in the pavilion, although sitting quietly, exuded a terrifying aura because their game had reached a critical moment. Faintly, the three flowers of qi above their heads were rushing towards each other. What was originally a simple game of chess had surprisingly evolved into a contest between the two. Of course, the most terrifying was the dwarf old man teasing birds under the eaves. In Xiao Yunlong's perception, it was as if a rushing tide flowed within this old man, which could be imagined how powerful he was.

"This is probably... a ancient martial artist who has surpassed the Xiantian Kaiqiao realm, and it is highly possible that he has half a foot in the Xiantian Zhenyuan realm!" Xiao Yunlong exclaimed inwardly, and at the same time, he slightly put away his underestimation. These guys had been entrenched on Geek Island for decades, and they had managed to retreat safely multiple times when the Eastern Domain Camp attacked. They indeed had some skills!

Suddenly, with a loud bang, the chair on which the chessboard was placed in the pavilion exploded, and the chessboard and chess pieces instantly shattered into pieces.

"Damn it, I'm not playing anymore! I'll never play chess with you again. It's always like this. As we play, you can't help but use your internal energy in the end," the old man holding a fan exclaimed angrily.

"Not at all, not at all. You were the one who used internal energy first. I was merely forced to do so. As a person, one should have some shame!" The other old man picked up his vajra brush and shook his head repeatedly. Startled by the sudden noise, the canary in the birdcage became flustered and flew around frantically. The dwarf old man no longer had the mood to tease the birds and slowly stood up.

"Oh, someone has arrived!" The dwarf old man seemed to only realize Xiao Yunlong's presence at this moment. He turned his head to look at him and said faintly, "You are Xiao Yunlong, aren't you? Are you ready to die?"
