Ancestral Wealth Inheritance System

Chapter 427: Chapter 427: Are You the Gu Family Seven Gourd Brothers?

The revelry lasted until midnight. Although the cave was damp and chilly, there were many cozy rooms on the yacht. In this atmosphere, everyone seemed to forget they were in a pirate lair and fell into a deep sleep.

“Beep beep beep, energy level below 1%, Electromagnetic Light Shield is about to shut down, please replenish energy as soon as possible!”

The energy of the Electromagnetic Light Shield gradually depleted over time, and by around five o’clock, it suddenly triggered an alarm.

The alarm instantly woke everyone from their dreams; even the pirates came rushing at the sound.

Although the Electromagnetic Light Shield hadn’t completely disappeared, it visibly dimmed at a pace noticeable to the naked eye. The pirates observing the situation immediately relayed this news to Hanuma, and in an instant, nearly a thousand pirates surrounded the yacht, making it impenetrable.

“Huaxia people, your energy must be running low, right? Soon, I’m going to sever your tendons and throw you into the sea to feed the sharks,” Hanuma’s expression became terrifyingly fierce. “Of course, before that, I’ll use your lives in exchange for a large sum of money!”

“It’s over, it’s over, today we are really doomed!” Wang Chao suddenly opened his phone’s notepad and began writing something.

“What are you doing?” Fang Jueyu asked.

“Writing a will,” Wang Chao said with a pained expression. “If my family finds my phone, maybe they’ll have a chance to see this will. My parents only have one son, how will they live after I’m gone…”

As he spoke, Wang Chao’s eyes unexpectedly turned red.

“Hey, hey, hey, you’re a grown man, why the hell are you crying? Who said we were going to die?” Fang Jueyu slapped his phone out of his hand. “I’ve said it before, it’s just a few pirates, so they’re nothing!”

“Is it just a few pirates? Take a good look, there’s hundreds, even thousands of them, all armed with guns. Each one firing a shot would turn me into Swiss cheese. Your Electromagnetic Light Shield is almost gone, what do we have to protect ourselves?”

“Look at my expression, do I look like someone who knows they’re about to die?” Fang Jueyu pointed to his own face.

Their eyes fell on Fang Jueyu’s face. Indeed, there wasn’t a trace of fear visible. Not only that, but his face was constantly adorned with a confident smile, as if this dire situation hadn’t affected his mood at all, and it certainly didn’t seem feigned.

“I’ll let you in on a secret, no matter which country I’m in, I’m always protected by someone. That person has been close to us ever since we set sail!”

“How is that possible?” Jiang Yi said. “We’ve been drifting at sea all along, and apart from the people on our boat, how could there possibly be someone nearby unless that person can fly? And even if there is such a person, this place has over a thousand pirates. Is he Iron Man or something?”

“Hey, you guessed right, this person can actually fly, and is likely more powerful than Iron Man!”

“Huh?”

While they chatted animatedly, the energy of the Electromagnetic Light Shield finally vanished, and the pale blue barrier faded completely.

“Bang!” a pirate threw a stone down, which fell directly on the yacht’s deck and wasn’t bounced away by any force.

“Boss, it’s okay now!”

“Capture them all!” Hanuma waved his hand, and without protection, they were just like sheep surrounded by wolves, without any power to resist.

“Wait!” Fang Jueyu shouted.

“Stop!” Hanuma ordered his men. “Huaxia person, what other tricks do you have?”

“I don’t have tricks as such, but I’d like to give you another chance. You destroyed my limited edition helicopter and kept us in this place for a night; shouldn’t you compensate for property and economic losses?”

“Here’s the deal: I’m a person with a big heart, so let’s call it five billion US Dollars. If you don’t have money, paying in kind is fine. I know you pirates have a lot of gold and treasure!”

“Hahaha! Huaxia person, at this point you still have the mood to joke?” Hanuma laughed. “Do you have the qualification to bargain with me? Know your position; you’re in my hands now!”

“Oh? Really, but I feel like I’ve got you all surrounded myself. If you’re not afraid to die, come on up and try!”

Hearing Fang Jueyu’s words, Hanuma suddenly thought of something. “Wait, don’t go up yet!”

Fang Jueyu’s ship was incredibly strange. So far, no country they knew of had invented such protective shield-like defensive weapons, and who knew if there were more dangerous surprises on board.

Rushing up recklessly would only increase their casualties!

“Hahaha, look, this fool actually believed it!” Fang Jueyu pointed at Hanuma and laughed.

“Old Fang, why are you provoking him? Desperate people can be terrifying once they lose it!”

Sure enough, Fang Jueyu’s laughter made Hanuma snap back to reality. If they really had other weapons, how could they be caught here so easily?

“Dare to toy with me?” Hanuma stubbed out his cigarette on the ground with a stomp. “Capture them all and cut off the head one’s hands and feet first!”

“Yes, boss!” Dozens of armed pirates immediately jumped onto the “Heavenly Ship.” As expected, nothing happened.

“It’s over, it’s over!” They all huddled together. “Old Fang, didn’t you say there was someone? Where is he? Call him out to save us!”

“Alright, alright, I won’t scare you anymore,” Fang Jueyu said. “Come on out!”

A yawning sound echoed in the cave, but the owner of the voice was nowhere to be found.

“Master, if you hadn’t called me, I’d have fallen asleep!” A middle-aged man, looking almost identical to Gu Yi but much slimmer, descended from the sky to their surprise.

“He… he can fly!”

“Wow, you were telling the truth?”

“No way, you look exactly like Gu Yi. You’re one of his siblings, aren’t you?”

“Yes, Master, my name is Gu Qiu, Gu Yi is my younger brother.”

“Damn… how many siblings do you actually have?” Fang Jueyu now realized Gu Yi had a brother, a sister, and now here came an older brother as well?

“Master, our Gu Family has seven siblings in total.”

“Are you the Seven Calabash Brothers?” Fang Jueyu couldn’t help but quip.

“Alright, alright, I’m not in charge of family planning,” Fang Jueyu waved his hand. In truth, he could handle a situation as small as this himself, but he didn’t want to reveal his power in front of his friends. It was better to use others as a cover.

Gu Qiu was stationed in South Africa and was a Source Energy User with exceedingly strong spiritual power, so Fang Jueyu only needed to send out a signal with his spiritual power, and Gu Qiu could pick it up easily.

In fact, Gu Qiu had been in this cave since last night. If Fang Jueyu hadn’t restrained him, he would’ve already joined them for dinner.

“Fang Jueyu, who exactly is this person?”

“Oh, he’s just a private bodyguard trained by our family, don’t worry. With him here, these pirates are doomed,” Fang Jueyu said. “Let’s go, let’s brush our teeth and wash our faces. Once he’s done dealing with them, we can have breakfast!”
