Chapter 37 Subjugation, Barbarian Slaves

Guo Li and the others sat in the distance, watching the barbarians by the bonfire eat their food in big mouthfuls. Some of the meat was not fully cooked yet, and there were even traces of blood on them. Still, the Barbarians ate very happily. From time to time, they even let out low roars like wild beasts.

Seeing this, the sailors felt a wave of nausea. Cai Er, who had been leaning against Guo Li, vomited.

Guo Li patted Cai Er’s back, telling her not to make too much noise. The appearance of these barbarians was getting more and more strange.

Cai Er was very scared. She looked questioningly at Guo Li, seemingly asking whether they should run away or strike first.

Guo Li and the others did not make any sudden moves, the barbarian chief walked over and said to Guo Li warmly, “Guests from afar, our sacrificial ceremony has ended. Although you have already eaten dinner, you must participate in one of the traditions of our tribe.”

Guo Li was puzzled and asked, “Chief, may I know what tradition you are talking about?”

The chief chuckled and said, “Our tradition is diving under the moonlight. At the highest point of this island, there is a diving platform. Every time the moon rises, that place is graced by our tribe’s ancestors. As long as you have the courage to jump from there, you will definitely be favored by our tribe’s ancestors.”

Guo Li felt that the whole idea was ridiculous. If he jumped off that cliff-like platform, would he not drown in the sea?

Moreover, Guo Li knew that this island was surrounded by sharks. Without any protective equipment, jumping into the sea was tantamount to suicide.

However, at this moment, the chief held Guo Li’s hand and the others walked to the top of the cliff without giving them any explanation.

The sea current here was strong, and there were many exposed reefs below. If they really jumped down toward such a dangerous place, even if they were not eaten by the sharks in the sea, they would still fall to their deaths on the reefs below.

Guo Li and the others had already been escorted to the platform. Guo Li also understood that these barbarians must have poisoned their food. Seeing that Guo Li and the others did not fall for that, these barbarians had probably decided to act in a more straightforward manner.

Seeing as they were now in a confined space, Guo Li did not dare to release the Elemental Magic Crossbow as he was afraid of hurting his own people.

In the sea, there were many sharks. If the sailors entered the sea, they would definitely be dismembered by the sharks.

The tribal chief also revealed his true form. He looked at Guo Li and the others fiercely and said in his tribal language, “If you don’t jump, you are disrespecting our tribe. In that case, we can only throw all of you into the

sea!”

As soon as he said this, the other barbarians rushed up. The sailors were ready to fight. Guo Li knew that there was a huge gap between the two sides. If they made a move now, they would be thrown into the sea to feed the sharks.

Guo Li could only stand up and say to the barbarians, “Don’t make a move. I will jump down voluntarily. The diving ceremony should be done one by one, right?”

The chief heard Guo Li’s words and nodded slowly. He did not make things difficult for Guo Li. He watched as Guo Li jumped down from here and into the sea below.

Cai Er saw Guo Li jump into the sea and was so scared that she wanted to scream. There were sharks below. If he jumped into the sea, he would die!

The barbarians saw Guo Li jump down and cheered. They danced wildly on the spot.

No one knew that the great white shark that Guo Li contracted was the leader of the sharks in the nearby waters, so he would not be in any danger.

Splash!

Guo Li jumped into the sea, and all the sharks nearby approached Guo Li. The leader of the great white sharks that Guo Li contracted saw Guo Li jump into the sea.

It was the first to swim over to stop the other great white sharks from attacking Guo Li. At the same time, Guo Li had also signed a group contract with the great white sharks, and all the great white sharks were now his subordinates.

On the cliff, the barbarians were celebrating crazily, and they even wanted to make Cai Er and the sailors their slaves.

Cai Er was disheartened. She had escaped from the barbarians with great difficulty and lived a happy life with Guo Li. Yet, after a while, she fell into the hands of the barbarians again. She was in complete despair, she wanted to follow Guo Li’s footsteps and jump into the sea to die for love.

The sailors readied themselves for a fight to the death. They would rather die than become the slaves of these barbarians.

Just as Cai Er was about to jump into the sea to follow Guo Li into the afterlife, a figure swam over from the sea. He had not been attacked by the great white sharks and swaggered back onto the shore.

The barbarians on the shore saw Guo Li walking over in perfect condition. They stared at him with their mouths agape. After Guo Li got onshore, he walked up to the barbarian chief and looked at him coldly.

The barbarian chief was shocked and asked in their language, “Impossible, how did you come back? Why didn’t the group of water demons attack you?”

From the barbarians’ perspective, the great white shark was the most terrifying ferocious beast because it ate the members of their tribe and ripped them to shreds.

Therefore, they called the great white sharks “water demons”. They were utterly terrifying existences.

However, Guo Li was not eaten by the great white sharks. Instead, he emerged safely out of the sea. The barbarians also regarded Guo Li as one of the great white shark’s kind. They also thought that he was a member of the water demons, or perhaps even the leader of the water demons.

Guo Li smiled coldly and waved his hand. All of the great white sharks in the water surfaced. Their scarlet eyes stared greedily at the barbarians on the shore.

The chief of the barbarians was terrified. He had never seen a god who could control these water demons. Guo Li took advantage of this exact moment while they were panicking.

Guo Li pushed the chief of the barbarians into the sea. He said indifferently, “I complied with your tradition just now. It’s very interesting. Now it’s your turn, Mr. Chief.”

Plop!

The hungry great white sharks rushed over crazily and tore into the barbarian chief who fell into the water. The entire island was filled with heart-wrenching screams.

That section of the sea was dyed red with blood. The barbarian chief had been completely devoured by the great white sharks. The remaining barbarians were all terrified and trembled, they kept saying, “Devil.. He is the devil! He is the incarnation of the devil. We are all going to die! We’ve been cursed by the Devil!”

Guo Li’s demonstration of power had made the barbarians kneel on the ground in fear. They surrendered and were utterly terrified. Guo Li used the language of the barbarians to communicate with them and gave them an ultimatum.

“From now on, you are all my slaves. If you don’t agree, you will be cursed by the Devil and die without a complete corpse!”

The barbarians were so scared that their bodies were trembling. Some of them even peed on the ground. They kept repeating, “We will listen to Master’s orders. From now on, we are Master’s slaves!”
