Chapter 49 Save a Selected Person
"What exactly do you want?"

It was drizzling, Wei Canghao waved his hand to block the umbrellas held by his subordinates, and walked to the front of the group.

The huge hull stands tall in the waves. It and the warship sail out to sea like a dragon. The vast ocean intersects with the vast and low-pressure sky. It holds its head high, fearless in the wind and rain, with an unparalleled style and noble aura.

The warships gradually formed a confrontation faction, with a 50-50 split. The leader of the opposing side was a middle-aged man wearing a mountain crown and the garb of a strategist. Beside him stood a tall young general and a man in a black cloak.

The strategist stroked his beard and said, "If it weren't for the last resort, we wouldn't rashly go against your Wei family, especially you, Wei Canghao. However, this time we have no choice but to borrow your Wei family's ships. After all, not everyone has the ability to break through the defenses and enter the Black Island."

Hei Island is a natural cage built jointly by the Wei family and the magistrate of Huaijiang County. Not only are there people from the government guarding it, but there are also people from the Wei family monitoring the navigation routes. Not just any ship can get close to Hei Island.

"So you hijacked seven warships of our Wei family just to visit Black Island?"

"We have our own reasons and rules for doing things. We just hope that Master Wei can stay out of it and not interfere with our business!" The opponent's general shouted angrily.

Wei Canghao turned the ring on his finger, his dark and gloomy eyes were like the unpredictable weather at the moment, very depressing and oppressive.

"I thought the King of Jin was extraordinary. It turns out that the dogs under the King of Jin bark louder than others."

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of the people on the opposite side all changed, with mixed expressions of green and red.

"Master Wei, since you have recognized who we are, there is no need to tear our faces apart. After all, there is no benefit for you to go against the King of Jin." The counselor Liao Wenchang said angrily.

Wei Canghao was silent for a moment, then said, "Okay, you can do whatever you want, but my people will be released immediately."

Upon hearing this, Liao Wenchang exchanged a glance with the others and sent the tied-up Wei Qiyao and Xu Shanshan over.

"If we let them all go now, I'm afraid that the Wei family will go back on their word. But we can let one person go. Why don't you choose one? Who do you want to let go?"

There was some malice in his eyes, and he wanted to see how he would make a decision when faced with this dilemma.

Wei Qiyao knew that even though his elder brother was usually extremely disgusted and harsh with him, they had been brothers for twenty years and had an extremely deep relationship, so he would definitely choose him.

"Brother, you don't have to choose—"

Others think so too. If they really have to choose, they will most likely choose the more important one.

Compared to Qi Yaojin, who was loved by the elders of the Wei family, the importance of his fiancée, who only had a marriage certificate, seemed much less. However, everyone underestimated Wei Canghao's fairness and selflessness.

He chose without any hesitation: "Xu Shanshan."

Wei Qiyao's sincere words "You don't have to choose me, choose Xu Shanshan" were stuck in his throat and almost choked him to death!
Liao Wenchang frowned in confusion.

Wei Canghao looks like a career-oriented person, but I didn't expect that he is so sentimental in his heart. He completely disdains his brothers and chooses his fiancée without any hesitation?

Wei Qiyao asked tearfully, "You chose her?"

After twenty years of being brothers, he was so unfaithful and disregarded brotherhood. He thought his elder brother's dislike for him in the past was just a spur and a way of expressing his disappointment in his brother's character. It turns out that his elder brother really meant what he said.

Wei Canghao didn't even look at the frantic Wei Qiyao, and directly reiterated to Liao Wenchang: "Let her go."

Although Wei Canghao looked down on people like Xu Shanshan who had a bad character, this matter had nothing to do with her, and he would not let her sacrifice for the Wei family's affairs.

Wei Qiyao just thought it was his own fault. If he could survive, he would risk his life to save him. If he unfortunately died, he would kill all the people involved to avenge him.

"Big brother..."

"Shut up! I came here to collect your body, but I didn't expect you to be alive and well. Now you are captured. Do you want to keep the little girl as a hostage so that you can escape?" Wei Canghao's face was as dark as water. Wei Qiyao was shocked.

As expected, the eldest brother was angry because he sent out emergency signals randomly.

But he really wanted to say, brother, the little girl you are talking about is very capable, and it is actually nothing to keep her, but now he dared not touch the tiger's whiskers at all.

Because the general was just ridiculed by Wei Canghao and insulted as a "dog", he took the opportunity to say: "Hahaha, you are worthy of being the head of the Wei family. You are ruthless and impartial. As long as someone makes a mistake, no matter if it is his own brother or fiancée, he will be willing to exile them to this black island as a punishment."

He was the one who did what happened to Wei Qiyao, but no one knew why this woman Xu Shanshan was in Hei Dao Wei Canghao.

"Xu Shanshan, please leave quickly. I'll stay."

Wei Qiyao knew that the matter was a foregone conclusion, but that didn't stop him from being attentive to her.

Xu Shanshan glanced at him and said, "You have been affected by fire recently, so be careful with sharp objects or anything related to fire."

When she spoke, everyone else just smiled, but the man in the black cloak glanced in her direction. His gaze, as cold as that of a poisonous snake, remained motionless and gradually deepened.

At this time, the general picked up Xu Shanshan.

Wei Qiyao widened his eyes and cursed: "Fuck, you bastard, what are you doing? Put her down!"

"Isn't our boss Wei in a hurry to get someone? I'll send the person over to him right away, and then--"

He leaped up, stepped on the mast, bent his knees, and threw the man towards Wei Canghao like a ball. However, he was angry and deliberately deviated from the direction. If the opponent lost his aim or was too late to reach out, he would fall into the sea.

Wei Canghao rushed past like a flash of lightning, and at the critical moment, his body suddenly flew into the air, and with his arms spread out, he burst out with amazing strength and speed.

He tore off a roll of his long cape and pulled the person accurately into his arms. The sleeves of his clothes fluttered in the wind, and when he was about to land safely, a sharp arrow flew from behind.

When the sound of breaking through the air entered Wei Canghao's ears, they had not yet landed on the ground and it was difficult to avoid it, so he had to stretch out his arm to block it.

The arrow entered the arm and penetrated and came out.

A few drops of blood fell on Xu Shanshan's fair cheek. She blinked her eyes, and her pair of dark eyes were pure and beautiful, like agate.

Wei Canghao looked at her for a moment, then pulled out the arrow with his backhand and threw it out along the same path without even blinking.

The smug look on the general's face froze. He knew that his martial arts skills were not as good as Wei Canghao's, but he didn't expect that the other party's internal strength had reached such a terrifying level.

Throwing arrows barehanded -

He knew he couldn't avoid it, but at least he could avoid the fatal blow. However, he had planned to do something wrong. Just as he was about to move, a strange force nailed his hands and feet.

He was horrified to find that his body was completely out of control and he let the arrow go straight into his heart.

He was hit by an arrow and died instantly, falling into the sea.

At this time, Xu Shanshan also saw the jade ring on Wei Canghao's hand.

found it.

The third magical instrument.
