Originally already dizzy from a cold, and then suddenly seeing this "daydreaming" guy, Ye Ge was momentarily stunned and forgot to dodge, until she saw Lin Taiping about to give her a big hug, she suddenly let out a cry of surprise, greatly leaning back and jumping continuously, her waist soft and curved almost to the point of breaking.
"Are you so surprised?" Lin Taiping was so moved that he wiped the corners of his eyes, almost with tears in his eyes. "It turns out that you still remember me, it's not in vain for me to travel thousands of miles and go through life and death to come back and find you."
What a surprise! Ye Ge jumped tens of meters in an instant, and his first reaction was to grit his teeth and curse: "Despicable guy, you actually dare to come back, I'll..."
Before the words had fallen, a dark fog filled the air, and her figure suddenly vanished without a trace. Yet, in an instant, she reappeared behind Lin Taiping like a ghost: "Give me, leave the child alive!"
"No problem." Lin Taiping suddenly flashed a brilliant smile, "The greatest wish of my life is to be surrounded by a large group of beautiful women and do this and that with them."
In an instant of nonsense, a dark light flashed by, his flesh and blood body emitted a misty black air, suddenly transformed into rugged white bones, and also hit a heavy punch, letting the dagger fall and splash a few sparks.
"Skull?" Ye Ge's eyes widened in surprise, her slender waist twisting lightly to avoid the attack with astonishing flexibility. She swiftly counterattacked with her dagger, striking out mercilessly: "Despicable guy, I knew you had a hidden trick!"
"You're not sneaking up on me, are you?" Lin Taiping replied with a smile, his gigantic white bone sword sweeping across, bringing with it a dark green phosphorescent flame that heavily collided with the dagger that was stabbing towards him.
With a loud crash, the air waves surged and rolled, and the tree trunk that blocked the way was cut off at the waist. But Ye Ge's figure had already flashed by, appearing on the treetop like a ghostly shadow. Her feet lightly pushed off, and she transformed into a virtual image, shooting down again.
A black mist spread out, her speed creating dozens of afterimages as she launched a multi-pronged attack from all directions. The white bones on her armor glowed with tiny sparks, and Lin Taiping involuntarily retreated several steps before raising his massive bone sword once more to counterattack and slash down mercilessly.
Between the sparks and flames, this strange and intense battle continued, amidst the rising smoke and dust, only the sounds of two people's continuous fighting and fierce mutual accusations could be heard.
"Achoo! You scoundrel, you can actually transform into a skeleton monster, truly as despicable as ever!"
"Thank you for the compliment, but who are you to say that?"
"You know what? That's called striking first!"
"Is that so? Then I'll just call it a defensive counterattack!"
It's great and powerful, watching these two guys scolding each other while sneaking up on each other, dozens of Minotaur people were all stunned, even forgetting to go up and assist, they simply took out roasted chicken legs, very neatly surrounded in a circle eating and watching.
As for those dozen or so Dark Elves, they were left staring in awe, suddenly feeling that the Tribal Elder and this smiling guy... uh, really did make a pretty good match.
In fact, this battle would not have been decided even if it had lasted for a hundred years. Until Lin Taiping finally got tired of the fight and suddenly retreated a few steps with a carefree expression, raised his giant bone sword and inserted it into the mud: "Let's pause, before eating dinner, shouldn't we talk about the main issue first?"
"Right on your head!" Ye Ge gritted her teeth in anger, her towering chest heaving violently, unsure whether it was from rage or exhaustion.
A dozen or so dark elves nearby listened in silence, thinking that even when their leader was assassinating her target, she would still flash a charming smile, but for some reason, every time she met this smiling guy, she couldn't help but feel uncontrollably angry, could this be the legendary arch-nemesis?
"Sorry, my head has nothing to do with this matter." Lin Taiping replied seriously, "However, that guy's head has a great deal to do with it..."
Because of this sentence, Ye Ge subconsciously turned his head to look over, and not far away, Tuluo was still there gnawing on a chicken leg, forgetting himself until half a day later, he suddenly let out an "ah" and stretched out his oily paws, grabbing the trembling Edward and throwing him over like a shot put.
It wasn't even necessary to intimidate him, Edward, who had already been scared out of his wits, almost as soon as he landed, shouted desperately: "It's not my fault, it's not my fault, all this is the plan of Bloody Captain."
A few minutes later, after listening to Edward's confession, a low murmur suddenly rose from the dark elves. Yege couldn't help but frown slightly, finally revealing a solemn expression: "You're saying that the pirates who escaped recently will bring that pirate captain called Blood Eye to capture slaves?"
It must be admitted that for the Dark Elf tribe with only a dozen or so tribesmen, the pirate's large-scale raid was indeed a very troublesome **nuisance.
"That's right, it's probably a bother." Lin Taiping casually stroked his chin. "So, after receiving this news, I specially traveled thousands of miles through wind and rain, braving life and death without avoiding danger to come and inform you... Hmm, I say, aren't you going to show some gratitude?"
"Thanks!" Ye Ge gritted his teeth and spat out these few words. If it weren't for this guy's big bucket of cold water, he wouldn't have mysteriously caught a cold. If he hadn't caught a cold, he wouldn't have sneezed during the stealthy assassination. If he hadn't sneezed during the stealthy assassination, those pirates wouldn't have escaped...
"Cough, cough, today's weather is really nice." Lin Tai slowly raised his head, directly ignoring Ye Ge's resentment, and focused on looking at the sky, as if gold coins would suddenly fall from it.
Damn it! A dozen or so Dark Elves stared at each other, and Ye Ge was so angry that his teeth ached. Suddenly, he had an urge to pounce on the guy and bite him hard, then drag him back to have children as compensation.
But just as she was about to put it into practice, Lin Taiping suddenly proposed in a serious tone: "Actually, why don't we try cooperating with each other? If the Minotaur and Dark Elf unite..."
"You think I'd join forces with them?" Before he could even finish, Tuluo and Yegong simultaneously refused, their eyes locked in a fierce stare, the air crackling with intense sparks.
With a proud face and raised head, Turu swung his most beloved golden bull horns, patting his chest with a loud thud: "Lin, don't worry, our great Bullhead tribe can completely handle those pirates on our own, we don't need these long-eared Dark Elves to cause trouble!"
"What's with the rabbit ears?" Night Song's two pointed ears suddenly stood up, trembling with rage, "How ridiculous! You bunch of muscle-brained fools, where are you going to go next? I'm really looking forward to seeing you all get grilled into burgers by pirates."
This is a naked provocation, Tu Lu immediately jumped up like thunder and raised the Totem stone pillar, Ye Ge also raised his dagger without fear, the atmosphere on the scene was suddenly filled with gunpowder, as if only one matchstick was needed to ignite it, this place would explode with a loud noise.
Very good, very powerful. Lin Taiping suddenly didn't know what to say. It seems that the grudge between the Minotaur and the Dark Elf is much deeper than imagined. But who can tell me why members of the same dark race have such a big conflict with each other?
It was the beautiful girl Lilia beside him who understood people's intentions, with her big watery eyes shining as she said: "That time, when we first arrived on this island, Tulou tribe's chief went out to find food and happened to meet Yege's scout hawk, then..."
Then the roasted falcon witnessed the grudges between two races, and in the end it all boiled down to one sentence: it was all caused by food!
"What can I say, Lin Taiping didn't want to say anything. Looking at Tulou and Yege who were about to fight at any moment, he could only hastily pull Tulou away: "Alright, anyway the message has been passed on. If you really need help, come find us at the Niu Tou Ren's tribe... Uh, by the way, this gift is for you."
"A gift?" Ye Ge took the box that was thrown to her, but just a few seconds later, after she saw what was inside, she suddenly looked strange, "Wait, what is this, what is this supposed to be?"
"Medicine for your cold!" Lin Taiping replied seriously, "Cough cough, I heard that your cold is quite severe, so I specially picked out the best medicine for a cold. Don't thank me, it's what I should do."
"Don't mention it? It's what I should do?" Ye Ge gritted her teeth again, "How hateful! The reason I got a severe cold is all because... Ah-choo!"
At this moment, Tuluo turned around to leave, but didn't forget to turn his head back and ask with a very honest tone: "That someone, have you recently raised any small birds or things like that?"
This is what they call adding fuel to the fire!
Ye Ge was furious, almost to the point of losing control. The group of dark elves next to him looked at each other in dismay, but finally someone cautiously approached and whispered: "Tribe leader, that human said that pirates will land on the island in a few days. If it's really true..."
"Then try it!" Ye Ge's gritted teeth replied, clearly shifting to vent his grievances. "I'll make those greedy and foolish dregs know that if they want to play with the Dark Elf tribe, they will have to pay the price of blood and life, and even their souls will cry in hell for a thousand years!"
Achoo! It was as if they felt a terrible grudge, several hundred miles away on the pirate fleet speeding along, a few pirates suddenly shuddered involuntarily, vaguely feeling that something terrible was about to happen.
In fact, Ye Ge's resentment was far deeper than they had anticipated. As the night grew darker, she narrowed her eyes slightly and gazed out at the mist-shrouded sea in the distance. Yet, without warning, she suddenly curled up the corners of her mouth, revealing a beautiful yet treacherous smile.
In fact, as long as it wasn't that "day and night thinking" guy, this beautiful woman walking in the shadows could always bring out her sinister poison to the extreme: "Go, you know what to do, I'll make those pirates regret setting foot on this island!"
"Of course, this devil island will eventually become their tomb!" A dozen or so dark elves tittered and giggled, simultaneously raising the corners of their mouths, the pale green poisonous daggers at their fingertips spinning lightly, as if they couldn't wait to drink blood.
However, it was at this time that Ye Ge suddenly stretched out her pink tongue, lightly licking Sakura's lips with a seductive tone, "Of course, before preparing a big meal for those pirates, I still have something more important to do..."
Looking at her strange smile, even the dark elves of the same clan couldn't help but shiver involuntarily. What could this so-called important event be?
"What do you think?" Ye Ge bit her cherry lips, looking at the distant smoke rising from the Niu Tou tribe, her two pointed ears trembling with excitement.
That despicable and sinister person, although hateful to the bone, is indeed more excellent than imagined, so since he took the initiative to come to the door, then...
A dozen or so Dark Elves exchanged glances, quickly grasping the meaning of the words, but furrowing their brows in concern: "Tribe leader, that human is more cunning than we anticipated. If you plan to..."
"Don't worry, the dark night is our best partner!" Ye Ge bit her cherry lips stubbornly, and after a few seconds of silence, a charming smile suddenly bloomed on her originally resentful face.
"Just you wait and see, tonight I'm going to make him give me children, lots and lots of children, even if he screams his head off it won't do any good!"
