Female Novel
Chapter 1161
The sight of the scattered bones caused the crew members to slump to the ground weakly. The pirates
had no choice but to drag them ahead.
Around ten minutes later, Jared saw a few houses built using stones in a slightly flat area.
The pirate with an embroidered red skull pattern on his outfit strode toward the bigger house.
Jared and the rest were locked up yet again.
A man with his hair spread over his shoulders was in the house the pirate stepped into.
From the condition of his hair, it seemed like he hadn't combed it in years.
His entire being reeked of blood.
This was the leader of the pirates on Skull Island—Barton.
Barton furrowed his brows when he saw the pirate entering his house.
“Bloodhand, why are you back this quick? What did you get today?” Barton queried coolly.
“Boss, we attacked a cruise ship, but there aren't many passengers. We only managed to abduct
fifteen people!” Bloodhand reported carefully.
“What? Fifteen people?” Barton's fury sprang to life. “What can I do with fifteen people? I'm at a crucial
moment right now, so I need fifty people!”
“Calm down, Boss. I shall lead the men to search for more,” Bloodhand replied hastily as his entire
being shook in fear.
“Forget it. I'll search the ocean myself two days later!” Barton snapped and gave a dismissive wave.
“Are there any martial artists among the fifteen hostages?”
Bloodhand shook his head. “No. They are all ordinary people.”novelbin
Barton's frown deepened as he fell into deep thought. A while later, he asked, “Which company does
the cruise ship belong to? Contact them and tell them to ransom the hostages. We can abduct the
people who come to save them!”
“Got it!” Bloodhand nodded and left to carry out his order.
Barton was utterly frustrated. I need fifty more men's life force energy to become a Martial Arts
Grandmaster! My power will improve considerably by then.
It turned out that Barton and the pirates were Demonic Cultivators. They were hunted down and had no
choice but to flee to this deserted island.
Later, they gave the island a name— Skull Island. Barton settled on the island and survived by looting
people on the sea.
Skull Island was bare, so there weren't any resources available for him to cultivate. Thus, human
beings' life force energy became the only source for Barton's cultivation.
Meanwhile, Jared enlarged his spiritual sense to cover the entire island so he could see everything
clearly.
He noticed a large amount of negative energy southwest of Skull Island, so many skeletons should be
buried there.
Jared's spiritual sense soon headed for the biggest house made of stone.
Barton, who was initially brooding, immediately jumped to his feet.
He then glanced at his surroundings
in panic.
After all, he had just sensed a dangerous aura coming for him.
The aura disappeared in a flash, but he still caught it.
Barton's brows snapped together as an ugly scowl crept up his face.
My subordinates aren't capable of emitting such an aura.
“Bloodhand? Bloodhand!” Barton yelled.
Shortly after, Bloodhand pushed the door open and came to him.
“Boss, what is it?” Bloodhand asked.
“Where are the hostages? Bring me to them,” Barton ordered.
Bloodhand nodded and brought Barton to the stone house that he kept Jared and the rest locked.
The hostages were huddled together as they shuddered helplessly. Some were even praying fervently.
Jared stood aside and took in his surroundings through the tiny window in the house.
The door was pushed open to reveal Bloodhand and Barton.
As Barton looked savage, the crew members panicked instantly. Some even screamed out loud in
terror.
“Stop screaming! If you won't listen to me, I'll kill you all!” Bloodhand chided loudly.
