Bab 57: Chapter 57 Excessive Arrogance is Foolishness

"Why did she want to kill Jerome and the others?"

Chen Qing glanced toward the direction of White Immortal and her group, taking Daliya away in the least smelly direction.

"Indeed, they are trying to capture you."

"But, they are competitors. They gather for benefits but also turn against each other because of them."

"The relationships between people are primarily based on self-interest."

"By killing them, she can maximize her benefits."

"Shuangwei, Fei Huo, Gemstone Pirate Group, Ghost Bone Pirate Group…"

Chen Qing listed methodically all the human forces trapped on Sapphire Island, speaking slowly and calmly.

"Shuangwei and the others are restrained by the Biological Ship, and there's only the Gemstone Pirate Group on that side; their deaths wouldn't matter much."

"But the three accompanying White Immortal are well-known pirate forces from the Deep Blue Sea. Once they're dead, the wealth and territories they hold will lose their master."
