Seeing that his plan had failed, a flash of resentment and venom appeared in Chiwen's eyes.
Suddenly he noticed Zu'an beside him, and his voice changed in fright: "He...what is he doing here? He's a devil, Auntie, you have to be careful!"
After saying that, he went to get the trident to fight again, but he was too weak and his muscles were trembling.
"You have the nerve to call someone a devil after all the filthy things you've done?" A hint of disgust flashed in Shang Liuyu's eyes. He rolled up his sleeve and swept the trident to the ground.
Zuan was secretly surprised. Although Shang Liuyu was also a sea creature, he must have a way to control the trident. But to take away Chiwen's weapon with a light sweep, his cultivation level must be quite high.
However, she usually has something to conceal her aura, making it difficult to discern her true cultivation level.
He couldn't help but recall the time back in Bright Moon City when a bunch of people were gossiping that Teacher Shang was proficient in music but not in cultivation. Many people rumored that she was only around the third rank, and they were all so delusional.
Chiwen was quite annoyed, but now he had to rely on Shang Liuyu's protection, so naturally he didn't dare to talk back to him.
At this moment, Shang Liuyu spoke up: "I pleaded for you. They are willing to make an exception. Just pay to save your life, according to the rules of the demon race."
Zu An was taken aback. He had promised Shang Liuyu to spare his life, and given their relationship, there was no need to collect any ransom.
Before he could say anything, Shang Liuyu secretly transmitted his voice to him: "Don't refuse. It's good to teach this spendthrift a lesson so that he won't become more and more lawless in the future."
Zuan smiled slightly. Since that's the case, there's no need to refuse. Chiwen is indeed a very annoying guy.
Chiwen opened its mouth, but since it concerned its life, it ultimately did not object and obediently took out a large conch shell with flowing runes on it, clearly a storage artifact.
He rummaged around inside for a while, then took out a gleaming sword: "This is the Sea-Slaying Sword. Legend has it that it can cut the sea in two with a single strike. It is incredibly powerful. If it weren't for my aunt vouching for me, I wouldn't have been willing to give it to you."
As he spoke, he handed it over with a pained expression.
Zuan glanced at it and found that the quality was indeed quite high. It was considered a top-grade weapon among Earth-rank weapons and would be enough to serve as a treasure for some sects in the martial arts world.
At this moment, Shang Liuyu snorted, "Who are you trying to fool with this piece of junk? Is your life only worth a broken knife like this?"
Chiwen's heart skipped a beat. He thought to himself, "My aunt is saving me! This evil star is unfathomable. It's obviously hard to fool him. If I try to be clever and anger him, my life will probably be in danger."
So he obediently took out a gold brick, and fearing the other party might misunderstand, he hurriedly explained, "Don't be fooled by the fact that it's a gold brick. Uh, although it is indeed a gold brick, it's not an ordinary gold brick..."
Realizing his incoherent speech, he hurriedly added, "This is a Heaven-level weapon that can be summoned to smash people, like a mountain pressing down on them."
He suddenly felt a surge of excitement. If he suddenly activated the gold brick, could he crush this guy into mincemeat?
However, considering the opponent's strange movement and the fist the size of a sand bowl, he felt that his life was more important and there was no need to take risks. It was just a Heaven-rank weapon, an external possession.
Zuan accepted the gold brick, feeling its heavy weight. Runes faintly flowed on it, containing the aura of the Great Dao.
He recalled that when he stumbled upon Jian Taiding and the Zhenyuan Chamber of Commerce's conspiracy in Cloud City, one of the experts used a gold brick as a weapon.
However, in terms of sheer power, this gold brick is far more powerful than the other one.
He marveled at the wealth and power of the sea creatures, and was about to say something polite to conclude the conversation when Shang Liuyu spoke up again: "Is your life only worth a brick?"
Zuan: "???"
Chiwen: "..."
He gritted his teeth; it was indeed a bit too little. So he took out a sword from the conch shell. The sword was crystal clear and shimmering, and as soon as it was taken out, it exuded a chilling aura.
Zuan was shocked; it was yet another Heaven-Rank weapon!
Before he could say anything, Shang Liuyu spoke up: "The Yin-Yang Twin Swords are a pair; there's no point in you keeping just one."
Chiwen's breath hitched, but he still obediently took out another sword. In stark contrast to the previous sword, this sword exuded an aura of extreme strength and yang energy.
When the two swords were held together, the chilling and blazing sensations vanished, replaced by a strange sense of harmony. One could vaguely see the aura of the two swords forming the shape of a yin-yang symbol.
Three Heavenly Rank weapons!
Zaun was overjoyed. The Tai'a sword had been cracked before, so he dared not risk taking it out to use it again. He was in need of a suitable weapon.
Moreover, although the Tai'a Sword is of a very high grade, according to Mi Li, its original body was sealed. In addition, it has degenerated over a long period of time. Now, apart from its special material, its actual combat power is about the same as that of a Heaven-rank weapon.
While weapons like the Poisonous Dagger, the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife, and the Sun-Shooting Arrow surpass the Heavenly Rank, each has its own drawbacks and is unsuitable for ordinary combat.
Now that he has these three Heavenly Rank weapons, his combat power can be significantly enhanced.
Just as Zu An was feeling quite satisfied, he heard Shang Liuyu speak again: "You're going to use some scrap metal that you don't even use yourself to buy your own life?"
Zuan: "..."
Chiwen was almost in tears: "Auntie, which side are you on?"
Shang Liuyu's cheeks flushed slightly: "Think about it carefully. They could have just killed you and taken your trident. Are your weapons comparable to a trident?"
At the same time, he secretly transmitted his voice to Zuan: "The trident is the weapon of a certain Dragon King, and it is of great significance to the Dragon Clan. I cannot give it to you, otherwise it will bring you trouble. I told him to make up for it with something else."
