Chapter 930: Run away, capture another prince

Shoot the arrow!

Following the third prince’s order, a sharp arrow pierced the void and shot towards the young prince on the mast of the ship with a “whoosh” sound.

“Third Prince, you…” The bandit leader was so frightened that he peed.

This was different from what Prince Xiao said. Didn’t Prince Xiao say that the third prince would not dare to take the life of the younger prince in public? But what was going on right now?

“Go, save people!” The third prince ignored the bandit leader and said to the martial god beside him.

*Duh* The third prince’s arrow hit the mast, but it did not miss the little prince by half. Instead, it broke the rope that hung the young prince.

The unconscious young prince fell from the high mast. If he hadn’t been busy robbing people, the bandit leader would have wanted to say: “What a great shooting skill!”

The martial saints of the empire set off at the moment when the third prince shot the arrow. However, the distance between the two ships was far, so no matter how fast they moved, they were still not as fast as the bandit leader.

“Kill them!” The third prince made his decision and attacked with iron bloodily, and there was no room for negotiation at all.

As Xiao Tianyao said, this was a game, a game between the Central Empire and the bandits. At this time, whoever shows he cares will lose.

“You…don’t want the seventh prince’s life?” The bandit leader hugged the seventh prince, his face ashen.

“You dare to hurt my seventh brother, and I will bury you nine clans with him.” The third prince was sure that these bandits would not dare to kill the seventh prince.

The seventh prince was their most important hostage. Without the seventh prince, how can these bandits negotiate terms with the Central Empire?

The bandits gritted their teeth, but thinking of Xiao Tianyao’s words, they held back: “Okay, there is an imperial prince who will die with us, what should we be afraid of? Our lives are worthless.”

“If you can, kill the Seventh Prince.” To test whether the Third Prince didn’t care about the Seventh Prince’s life or death when the martial god attacked, the bandit leader directly pushed the Seventh Prince in front of him and used the Seventh Prince as his human shield, which frightened the martial god and quickly stopped.

“You, despicable!” The martial god was not the third prince. He didn’t dare to joke about the seventh prince’s life. If the seventh prince died in his hands, all nine of his clans would have to be buried with him.

“Hahaha… I thought you didn’t care about the life and death of the Seventh Prince, but it turns out you are all lying.” The bandit leader used an exaggerated smile to cover up the panic in his heart.

God knows he was frightened just now.

They only have this trump card in their hand. If it fails, everyone on their island will die.

“Damn it!” The third prince cursed angrily when he saw this scene.

This group of bandits was so cunning. If he hadn’t considered that there were too many people, he would have wanted to kill the Seventh Prince first. In this case, he would have to see what capital these bandits had to dare to challenge him.

“Third Prince, I advise you to retreat. People like you can’t defeat me.” Faced with the three martial gods from the Central Empire joining forces, he was no match. Even if these three martial gods were useless compared to others.

“You…get back.” The third prince knew that it was useless to continue fighting like this. Not only would he not be able to save anyone, but he would anger the bandit leader.

*Shuashua* The Central Empire’s martial gods immediately retreated from the warship.

The bandit leader secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but at this moment, the third prince who had been standing on the warship and commanding suddenly moved!

With a “swish” sound, he pounced on the bandit’s boat and pounced on the Seventh Prince at a speed no slower than that of the martial god.

The third prince’s speed was too fast and his movements were too sudden. The bandit leader noticed it, but he couldn’t react in time. He could only watch helplessly as he injured himself and took away the seventh prince.

*Bang* The bandit leader was thrown into the sea, and the seventh prince was snatched away by the third prince.

“What a sinister third prince!” The bandit leader fell into the sea and sank to the bottom of the sea after flopping twice.

The third prince hugged the seventh prince, turned around, and said: “Do it, destroy…”

Before he could finish speaking, a dagger pierced his heart.

“Pfft…” The third prince opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. He looked down at the dagger stuck in his heart, and then at the “seventh prince” who was held in his arms.

“You…” At this time, the third prince had no idea that he had fallen into the trap.

The “Seventh Prince” who was held in his arms lifted his long hair that covered his face, revealing a face that looked a lot like the Seventh Prince’s: “I’m sorry, Third Prince.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the young man pulled out the dagger, turned around, and broke away from the third prince’s hand. He kicked the third prince back and knocked him down.

“Get the third prince!” The young man wiped the blood on the dagger and smiled calmly.

The bandits on the ship swarmed forward and held down the third prince. Seeing this scene, the Central Empire’s martial gods and black-armored guards were about to turn back when they heard the young man pretending to be the seventh prince say: “I advise you not to move, otherwise… I don’t mind cutting the third prince into pieces and feeding them to the dogs.”

The young man spoke very calmly, but it was hard not to believe.

“Go, tell the Central Empire that I want 200 taels of gold now, not a single copper coin missing.” The Central Empire only cares about the young prince, and doesn’t care about Prince Xiao and Princess Xiao of the Eastern Country. If he caught one more prince, he could get another one hundred taels of gold, which was normal.

These were Xiao Tianyao’s words, and the young man just remembers them in his heart.

“You… this group of people, aren’t you afraid that the Central Empire will tear you apart?” An imperial prince was caught in front of them. The Central Empire’s martial gods felt humiliated. They were worried about the Emperor’s wrath.

“Come here if you have the ability. Send another prince here. I don’t mind catching another one.” The young man said arrogantly, with that proud and arrogant look that could make the people of the Central Empire angry to death.

“That’s right. Catching another one makes it a pair.” The bandit leader, who was knocked into the sea by the third prince, emerged from the sea at some point and was climbing onto the ship.

“You’d better withdraw your troops quickly, and… tell His Majesty, it’s best to ask another prince to send gold. Apart from the prince, I don’t want to see the Central Empire’s soldiers on the island. By the way… you only have 1 day, if I don’t see gold, I will chop off the hands of the seventh prince and the third prince. If I don’t see gold in 2 days, I will chop off their feet.” The plan was successful, and the third prince was successfully captured. The bandit leader was amazed at Xiao Tianyao. After being amazed, he said all the words Xiao Tianyao had handed over in advance.

“Please give us 2 more days. We need to report to the Central Empire.” The deputy general of the imperial warship did not dare to resist when he saw this, so he could only respond first, but he hoped to fight for a few more days.

“I’ll give you one more day, now…retreat immediately, I don’t want to see you again. Remember, when sending gold, only one prince can come, and others cannot follow, otherwise… I will kill the Third Prince and the Seventh Prince.” The bandit leader looked like he was easy to discuss, but he only gave the other party one day and sounded non-negotiable.

The deputy general was unwilling to give in and tried to communicate several times, but the bandit leader refused to talk and just told them to retreat as far as possible.

There was no other way. If the soldiers of the Central Empire don’t leave, how will they escape?
