Chapter 642: Chapter 643 Unpleasant Contact_1

"I didn’t expect you to be so sensitive."

Feng Yuan said with a smile, his voice low. Xiao Ji just barely opened her eyes, saw that she was in Feng Yuan’s embrace, and then continued to sleep. The guard, looking somewhat puzzled, asked,

"What are you here for?"

"Of course, to check on the situation. I didn’t expect it to be faster than I anticipated."

"After all, it’s a Legendary Level existence. No matter how slow it moves, it can’t be too slow."

The voice of Delong Tower rose amongst those present. Feng Yuan stuck the Wolf God Giant Sword casually into the sand, and while looking at the sea in the night, he said,

"I hope they will recognize you; otherwise, we still have to put up a fight."

Delong Tower shook its body, unconcerned, and said,

"Maybe. Although I occasionally help their victims, it’s just..."

"Those nobles... I can’t see through them."

Feng Yuan replied with a laugh,

"Of course, having been messed with by Ernis to such an extent, it would be strange if you could see through them."

"It doesn’t care?"

"Who knows? Maybe it isn’t interested in interfering. Besides, Ernis isn’t just about destruction—at least it advanced the development of war technology, didn’t it?"

Delong Tower sank slightly and said,

"Developing technology in the midst of war..."

"What else? Without practice, there are no conclusions, right?"

The shadowy silhouette of Agunas silently swung its tail. Although what Feng Yuan said was true, something about it felt off.

After a long silence, Delong Tower asked,

"What if they start something?"

"Give them a warning. If that doesn’t work... flip over the ship, and throw the people back onto land. I believe that should quiet them down."

"No need to..."

"No need, we don’t have to flip all of the ships—just warn by flipping one or two. After all, we’re here to trade, not to start a war."

The guards, seeing Feng Yuan standing there talking with Delong Tower without any abnormal behavior, went back to their previous posts. They listened to the conversation between Feng Yuan and Delong Tower to pass the boring time of the night watch.

"We’ve arrived..."

Feng Yuan stood up, stretched his waist, and looked at the now disappeared high-speed waterway. The Island Jellyfish had already left the high-speed waterway. Glancing at the sky, Feng Yuan said,

"It seems that dawn hasn’t arrived yet. I’ll leave the rest up to you."

Delong Tower nodded and dived sharply toward the outskirts of the Island Jellyfish’s space. Feng Yuan, looking at Xiao Ji whom he held in his arms, thought for a moment and decided not to go into the water. The shadowy silhouette of Agunas glanced at Feng Yuan and asked,

"Are you sure it’s okay to let Delong Tower handle it?"

"What else? Are you going to hold Xiao Ji for me?"

"How can I hold her?"

The shadowy silhouette of Agunas shook its tail. Even if it were not just a silhouette, holding Xiao Ji, who was nearly the same size, would still be challenging. Feng Yuan smirked and said,

"Then why mention it."

"Anyway, as long as there are interests, those nobles won’t care too much about what has happened. Or rather, after being played by Ernis for so long, it’s unlikely that those nobles would unite."

Although a bit uncertain, Feng Yuan guessed that the nobles were almost impossibly likely to band together and put pressure on the Maritime People. The shadowy silhouette of Agunas, wordlessly staring at the distant lighthouse, said,

"I truly don’t understand what that guy is thinking."

"Who knows, maybe he finds it amusing?"

Feng Yuan shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile. A roar from Delong Tower erupted in the distance. Feng Yuan looked up at the sky, and as expected, dark clouds had completely covered the starry sky.

"Going to take action directly?"

"Looks like the negotiations fell through."

Agunas’s phantom watched the distant lights and said, it could tell that was a warship. Though it would be useless against a Legendary Level creature like the Island Jellyfish, the warship was actually not weak. At least, ordinary Elite Level water Spirit Beasts wouldn’t have it easy against it.

The sea surged once more with terrifying waves. Feng Yuan could feel the fear of the Island Jellyfish and, with some bemusement, looked towards the massive figure in the distance and said,

"It really is, getting too into character..."

At that moment, at the center of the storm, Delong Tower revealed a smug look. The sailors on the nearby warships tethered themselves to their vessels with ropes. The powerless attacks of the Spirit Beasts couldn’t even break the thin, shallow blue barrier surrounding Delong Tower.

Seeing the usually unstoppable Spirit Beast Cannons having no effect on the shallow blue barrier, the captain regretted his arrogance. He had ignored the goodwill of the other party and acted rashly.

"Do you really want to fight?"

Just as the warship was in jeopardy in the midst of the storm, a somewhat deep voice came. The sailors and captain looked at the man who appeared beside Delong Tower with some confusion. Behind the man, a pair of pitch-black wings was clearly visible in the flash of lightning.

"That guy..."

Liu Wenli looked at the suddenly awakened and somewhat flustered Xiao Ji and muttered to herself, speechless. Sensing an anomaly in the weather around her, Liu Wenli quickly woke up and instinctively brought Amon to the beach. At this time, Delong Tower was just calling forth the destructive storm. Feng Yuan, after gently patting Xiao Ji and saying something that made it rush into Liu Wenli’s arms, said,

"Hold onto it for me. I’m going to stop Delong Tower, otherwise, things will get troublesome if he gets too carried away."

Without waiting for Liu Wenli to refuse, Feng Yuan opened his pitch-black wings and flew out. Looking at Xiao Ji in her arms, Liu Wenli sighed. As expected, it wasn’t long before Xiao Ji quickly woke up and looked around in a panic. Liu Wenli finally managed to calm it down.

Looking at the storm outside that was like the end of the world, Liu Wenli murmured to herself,

"It seems he was holding back before."

"What’s going on here!"

Mu Nanyu, seeing the storm in the distance, exclaimed in surprise. In the village, obscured by trees, the view wasn’t clear, but upon reaching the beach, she could clearly see the raging sea churning in the distance. The edge of the space, which normally blurred with the outside world, was now distinctly visible due to the tumultuous waters.

On one side, the sea was calm; on the other, the waves were tumultuous. Stunned by the sight he had never before seen, Mu Nanyu stood in a daze. Liu Wenli calmly said,

"I don’t know what they’ve done, but it seems like Delong Tower might have overexerted."

Although the situation of the enemy was unknown, the current power was enough to destroy any Spirit Beast below the Legendary Level. Even Legendary Level Divine Beasts could get injured in this environment if they were not careful.

After a while, the sea gradually calmed down, the rain ceased, and the dark clouds in the sky slowly dispersed. A hint of sunrise illuminated the sea. Feng Yuan, drenched to the bone, flew back and, looking at the approaching Xiao Ji, said,

"Are you planning to take a bath?"

Hearing Feng Yuan’s words, Xiao Ji, who was charging towards him, abruptly stopped in its tracks. The Illusory Sound Parrot flew back from who knows where, soaked through and squawking incomprehensible sentences nonstop. After listening for a short while, Liu Wenli understood that it had overheard Feng Yuan negotiating with those people.

Feng Yuan tapped the Illusory Sound Parrot’s head and said,

"You little eavesdropper, where did you hide just now?"

The Illusory Sound Parrot glanced at Feng Yuan and continued flapping its wings, repeating the words it had just heard. Due to its inability to understand the words, the order was all jumbled up, but Liu Wenli could roughly guess the outcome and said to Feng Yuan,

"Did you convince them?"

"Not really. Although they said they would report back to their Lord, I think they’re probably still considering fighting another round."

"Why is that?"

"Because they don’t know that for Delong Tower, hiding in the center of the continent will be useless."

"Hey, hey! You’re not thinking of sinking Omeilia, are you?"

Guo Huai, who had just hurried over, cried out displeased after hearing Feng Yuan’s words. Glancing at Guo Huai, Feng Yuan said irritably,

"What does it have to do with me? It’s not like I’m the one who made it angry enough to sink Omeilia."

"Moreover, you’re overthinking it. Sinking a continent requires the consent of most Guardian Divine Beasts. Sinking Omeilia just because of a small Lord? Delong Tower would be laughed to death if it used that as a reason."

"Uh..."

Guo Huai scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed. He had forgotten about that, and as Feng Yuan said, Delong Tower wouldn’t be shameless enough to sink a continent over such a trivial matter.

"Aren’t you going to change your clothes?"

Seeing Feng Yuan standing on the beach, Mo Ling, who had just arrived, asked while fumbling in her pocket as if looking for something. Feng Yuan glanced at the distant land barely visible and said,

"Forget it, I’ll probably have to get wet again later on. Let’s deal with this first."
