From Pirates to Sweeping the Worlds

"Wait." Hancock suddenly called out to him.

Xia Jieren stopped and asked doubtfully, "Is there anything else?"

Hancock took a deep breath, as if mustering up a huge amount of courage, "Thank you so much for tonight."

Her voice trembled slightly, revealing a hint of shyness. After she finished speaking, she quickly turned around, covered her pounding heart, and did not dare to look directly at Xia Jieren.

Xia Jieren was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "You're welcome, Hancock. This is what I should do. And this is the nth time you've thanked me, there's really no need to be so polite, we're all friends!"

"Friends..." Hancock murmured, her heart instantly filled with sweetness.

After saying that, Xia Jieren left without looking back.

After leaving [Nine Snakes City], Xia Jieren felt a little regretful: "I should have stayed with Hancock just now, the chances of success would have been a little higher."

But now, it was too late to say anything. Xia Jieren couldn't turn back.

"Man! It's a man!" Suddenly, Xia Jieren heard a series of joyful voices in his ears.

More and more Nine Snake citizens are gathering here.

Xia Jieren felt his scalp tingling and he immediately ran away. What a joke, he didn't like being watched like a monkey.

In fact, the more important reason is that although [Amazon Lily] is a veritable [country of women], the quality of its citizens is uneven, and few of them meet Xia Jieren's aesthetic standards.

If you don’t run now, wait until later.

After escaping back to the guest room in a somewhat embarrassed manner, Xia Jieren didn't have time to breathe a sigh of relief before Gate and Ariely surrounded him worriedly.

"I'm fine!" Xia Jieren waved his hand, walked straight to the bedroom, and lay down on the bed.

Seeing this, Gate and others tactfully did not disturb them.

Before Xia Jieren could even stretch, he was dragged into the [Heart Net].

After a dizzy spell, Xia Jieren opened his eyes again and saw the familiar palace.

Xia Jieren looked left and right, searching for the culprit.

"Hmph!" A cold snort echoed in the palace. Xia Jieren quickly looked up and suddenly saw a beautiful figure.

Kerrigan crossed her arms over her chest and looked down at Xia Jieren. Her face was like a calm lake, without a single ripple.

Xia Jieren greeted with a big smile on his face: "Kerrigan! Hello!"

"My bad!" Kerrigan immediately showed an angry expression.

Seeing her like this, Xia Jieren's eyes lit up: "This expression of a mature lady has a unique flavor."

For a moment, Xia Jieren was daydreaming.

Kerrigan waited for a long time, but Xia Jieren never came to comfort her. Then, she saw Xia Jieren in a trance, and she became even angrier.

Good guy!

Not only did Xia Jieren use the fruits of her labor to please other women, he was also distracted when talking to her. It would be strange if Kerrigan wasn't angry.

Where Xia Jieren didn't notice, Kerrigan's eyes were looking at him more and more dangerously.

Kerrigan floated to Xia Jieren's side, patted him on the shoulder, and asked gently, "What are you thinking about? You're so absent-minded!"

"What do you think?" Xia Jieren looked at the incredibly beautiful face and hugged Kerrigan in his arms.

Kerrigan's face lit up, this was exactly what he wanted.

Everything just fell into place.

Kerrigan used all her skills to slowly drain Xia Jieren's energy.

Xia Jieren thought to himself that something was wrong and wanted to use the [Zerg Core] to cheat, but was stopped by Kerrigan.

At this moment, how could Xia Jieren not see that Kerrigan was deliberately taking revenge on him? He gritted his teeth, mustered his energy, and fought with all his strength.

Time soon came to evening.

Xia Jieren slowly opened his eyes and stood up. He had been lying in bed for three hours, so he should be full of energy and vitality.

Unfortunately, Xia Jieren was even more exhausted than before going to bed.

Xia Jieren yawned and reached out to touch his side.

"Hiss~, being too real is not a good thing! Kerrigan actually fed back all the pain to me." Xia Jieren complained in a low voice.

Walking to the window, Xia Jieren glanced at the setting sun in the distance, then turned to look for Gate and the others.

Tonight, there is an even grander banquet.

Xia Jieren tidied himself up a bit and was about to go out when he suddenly heard a commotion outside.

The distance was too far, and Xia Jieren's [Observation Haki] could not detect it, but Gate could.

Gate said solemnly: "Master! Master Hancock seems to be ill!"

"Ha~" Xia Jieren looked confused.

I was fine at noon today. How could I get sick suddenly?

"Can it be?" Xia Jieren said with a little excitement, as if he had thought of something.

"What if it is?" Xia Jieren's eyes flashed with gold, and he immediately called the two of them and planned to go and visit.

at the same time.

[Nine Snakes City], inside the bedroom.

"Sister! You must hold on!"

"Mother New! You are well-informed. Come and see what happened to my elder sister."

Sisters Sandasonia and Marigrude were extremely anxious.

On the bed, Hancock was wearing white lace pajamas, breathing heavily, and the sheets beneath her were soaked with sweat.

"It hurts!"

"My chest feels stuffy!"

"Am I going to die?"

Hancock put his right hand to his forehead and murmured unconsciously.

While observing Hancock's condition, Grandma New listened carefully to what Sandasonia and others had to say.

After hearing this, Granny New's pupils trembled: "No way!"

"Xia Jieren..." she asked tentatively.

next moment.

Hancock clutched her chest tightly with her right hand, seeming to be in even more pain.

Seeing this, Granny Niu held her forehead with a headache and said, "What a sin!"

"Mother New! Have you found the cause of the disease? Tell me quickly!" Sandasonia urged.

Hancock looked at Granny New and said weakly, "Granny New! I... I am in so much pain... Will I die...?"

"She'll die!" Granny New looked at Hancock seriously.

"Mother-in-law New! Stop joking around at a time like this!" Marigrude said dissatisfiedly.

Ignoring Marigrude, Granny New said in a deep voice: "The previous emperor and the emperor before that all died of this disease! In fact, it was because of this disease that I fled the country and went to the open sea. I barely managed to save my life."

"What disease does my elder sister have? How can it be cured?" Sandasonia looked at Grandma New with hope.

Granny New asked, "Snake Princess! The party is about to start! Xia Jieren will also be there, do you want to go?"

"What time is it... the party..." Sandasonia was halfway through her words when she saw Hancock, who was originally weak, suddenly stand up. She immediately opened her mouth in surprise.

"I'm going!"

After saying this, Hancock changed her clothes and left the bedroom, leaving everyone dumbfounded behind.
