Chapter 1161 Crucial Moment
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.

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.”
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.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter 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.
