Chapter 27: The Lion and the Venomous Snake (Part 2) Please collect

  One after another sharp whistle came from all sides of the prison, the sound of footsteps was like a tide rushing in, and the prisoners who had been silent as dead men in their cells suddenly went mad, beating against the cell doors and shouting wildly.

  The Jerallion prison, which was as quiet as a graveyard just the second before, turned into a living hell in just one second!

  The door burst open with a loud crash from Bill's kick outside. His pale face screamed, "We've been discovered, let's go!!"

  William let out a loud roar, and threw the dagger in his hand like a flying knife towards the first batch of prison guards who rushed over. Then he flew forward, snatched his long knife, and went crazy with the prison guards.

  Tang Jie suddenly squatted down in front of Old Ba, his back to him, and shouted over his shoulder: "Captain Ba, hurry up and get on my back, I'll carry you out!"

  Lao Ba Er grasped Tang Jie's head and turned it around, grabbing his collar. In a stern voice, he shouted: "Tang Jie, today I'm teaching you the third lesson! Remember this, even if you're a lion, you must know when to give up!! Even in a pride of lions, a lion like me who has lost fighting power should be abandoned without hesitation. Did you hear that clearly?!

  Tang Jie was shocked!

  He was shocked by Old Ba Er's words and couldn't say a word, standing still like a mud puppet.

  Abandon this wise old man who has a lifesaving grace and an enlightening affection for him, and escape by himself?

  Stop kidding!!!

  Lao Ba saw that Tang Jie was still in a daze, he impatiently wanted to go and hit Tang Jie, to chase him away. However, before he could do so, Tang Jie brushed his hand aside and struck the back of Lao Ba's neck with a palm knife, knocking him unconscious.

  Tang Jie's face was as calm as water, his jaws clenched tightly, he listened to the deafening killing sounds outside the prison cell and said to Bill: "Bill, you carry Captain Ball on your back, I'll take you guys out! We came in a few people, we'll leave with a few people!!"

  If Tang Jie had given up on Old Captain Bar earlier, although Bill couldn't blame Tang Jie, he would definitely be very disappointed in his heart.

  But at this time, hearing Tang Jie say so, Bill's heart was both ecstatic and admiring. He quickly carried the majestic body of Captain Bar on his back and loudly responded: "Yes, I will use my life to protect Captain Bar!!"

  Tang Jie smiled: "The one who should use his life to protect him is me!"

  After he finished speaking, his eyes swept across the wall of the cell and landed on a double-bladed axe with razor-sharp serrations!

  Tang Jie walked over and with a sudden burst of strength, he pulled out the giant axe from the wall!

  He tested the sharpness of the axe with his fingers, then curled up the corner of his mouth and shouted: "Let's go, kill them!!"

  ……

  A gust of sea breeze came, Nia's golden long hair fluttered slightly, the disheveled strands fell on her snowy fragrant shoulders, making her skin even more delicate and smooth, the lines of her shoulders and slender neck were beautiful. Her figure was slender, with curves that were concave and convex in all the right places, under the moonlight she looked hazy like a masterpiece sculpture from a great master's hands.

  Nina stood at the edge of the cliff, her gaze fixed on the dark silhouette of Jerrald's prison. As per her agreement with Tongjie, she had been following Wells closely, fearing that he might change his mind halfway and turn against Tongjie instead.

  By her side, Wells was silently gazing at her, unknowingly becoming infatuated.

  "Nia, how long has it been since we last gazed at the moon together?" Wells said softly.

  Nia turned back upon hearing Wells' words, a hint of softness in her eyes: "It's been over two years, I suppose..."

  "Yes, in these two years, you've been constantly fighting and practicing your aura, growing a lot!" Wells' face showed a hint of tenderness as he lovingly gazed at the woman he deeply loved.

  Nia lowered her head, hiding the nostalgic look in her eyes, and when she raised it again, it was icy cold: "You've grown up a lot too, Wells! You've grown to the point where you can even betray your own father. I really underestimated you!!"

  Wells' expression on his face gradually solidified, gentleness slowly turned into ferocity, his voice was icy: "You've finally figured it out?"

  Niya's eyes flashed with intense hatred and anger, her whole body trembling violently, her fists clenched: "You don't even dare to refute me? Have you become so shameless and despicable? How can you betray a father who raised you for eighteen years!! Has your conscience been eaten away by the sea monsters?"

  "Wales sneered with a smile: 'Am I shameless? Am I despicable?'"

  He burst into loud laughter, his shrill voice sending out a sound like an owl's hooting in the dead of night!

  Wells' laughter gradually stopped, and he sneered: "Nia, you have to be clear, it wasn't me who betrayed Captain Bar first, it was him who betrayed me!!"

  "Nia was furious: 'You shameless beast, how can you exist in this world with a human skin! You betrayed my father, you betrayed your own father, and yet you still want to shift the blame onto him?!'"

  Wells let out a cold laugh: "I'm a wolf in sheep's clothing? That Bal is a wolf in sheep's clothing!!"

  Wells sneered and said: "At first, I thought he and I parted ways to make it easier for me to escape, and he would divert the pursuers. But what I never expected was that before Captain Ball escaped at sea, he secretly spread the news that the treasure map of the Pirate King was on my body! As a result, you know how many times I was ambushed on the way!!"

  "Seventeen times!! Seventeen whole times of pursuit!!!", Wells' hands were like hooks, his face twisted in a scowl. "When I was caught, I only realized that I had been abandoned by Captain Ball! He used me to divert Bissell's attention and the pursuers! And he himself sneaked away alone!!"

  "What else can I say since he betrayed me?" Wells' eyes were filled with a cold, venomous glare. "He taught me from childhood to return tooth for tooth and blood for blood!"

  Nia's whole body was shaking with rage, her voice trembling, her fingers like guns and spears, pointing at Wells: "What are you talking about? Can you come up with such a clumsy excuse? What treasure map does my father have? We were chased by the people of Biscay for two whole months, losing more than 40 men, didn't you see all this?"

  Wells stared at Nia in shock, letting out a laugh: "You actually don't know about the treasure map? My god, Ball doesn't even trust his own daughter! I really doubt whether you're actually his biological daughter!"

  Nina felt herself on the verge of collapse, her fists clenched as she shouted at Wells in a hoarse voice: "Even if everything you've made up is true! Why did you have to drag Tong Jie into this, what does he have to do with anything?!"

  As soon as he heard the name T'ang Chieh, Wellington burst into a rage, bellowing loudly: "What is this thing! How dare it enjoy everything on my ship!!"

  "I once thought that Ball would hand over this ship to me, and you to me! But in the end I found out, not only was I betrayed by him, but when I came back alive, I discovered that he actually wanted to hand over this ship and you to that despicable bastard who is even lower than an ant!!"

  "What the hell is he doing!!" Wells roared like a beast that had lost its mind, "What right does that bastard have to take away everything that belongs to me? What am I inferior to him in? I'm stronger than him, I'm more ruthless than him, when has Wells ever been defeated?"

  Nina's face turned iron-green, she bit her lip tightly, raised her hand high and slapped Wells heavily in the face!

  A crisp crack!

  Wells' face was clearly imprinted with Nia's palm, the furious anger on his face was driven away by Nia's slap, replaced by a gaze that was extremely venomous.

  Nia's gaze was as if she was looking at a very pitiful person, her voice cold like a sword, heavily stabbing into Wells' heart: "Wells, you're really pathetic! Yes, you are strong, on the Hell Ship, you are indeed the strongest person now! But, Wells, don't you know that the Atak Sea is just a part of the Nierisia Sea? Don't you know how many stronger people there are in the Nierisia Ocean? Outside of Nierisia's six seas, how many people are stronger than you by who knows how many times?"

  "Haven't you heard the saying 'there's a heaven beyond the sky, and someone beyond that person'? Yes, Tang Jie is no match for you now. If they were to fight fairly, he would definitely lose to you! But I'm telling you, do you know how many days he's been practicing his Dou Qi? Less than seven days!!! His Dou Qi was taught by me, and in just seven days' time, he has surpassed my ten years of cultivation!! Give him a few more sevens, and what would you be worth then?!"

  Nia's words struck deep into Wells' heart, making his face increasingly gloomy.

  Wells suddenly sneered and flipped his wrist, a fireball appearing in his hand as he heavily flung it towards the drawbridge of Jerrall's prison!

  With a loud crash, the fist-sized fireball slammed onto the suspension bridge, instantly setting the area where it came into contact with the fireball ablaze. Even from the top of the cliff, one could clearly see the flames on the bridge.

  Wells' wrist flipped again, and another fireball was thrown over, setting off another ignition point on the suspension bridge!

  Nia rushed over frantically: "Stop! Do you want to ruin your bet?"

  Wells grasped Nia's hand and pulled her tightly into his chest, the other hand gripping her pointed chin, making her look at the fiery suspension bridge. His voice was icy as he said, "Tell me, if he dies in a bit, how can he surpass me?"

  Niya laughed angrily: "Don't you know? Before he even learned to control his Qi, he had already killed a third-level sword fighter with his bare fists. He's a born warrior and will absolutely not die in this place!!"

  Wells chuckled, his smile indescribably evil. He leaned in close to Nia's ear and said in a cold tone, "What if I told you that in the depths of Jerra's prison, not only is there a third-level swordsmaster waiting for him, but also a fifth-level magician?"
