Chapter 1354 - 1354 1340 Dark Sea Territory (1)

Chapter 1354: Chapter 1340: Dark Sea Territory (1) Chapter 1354: Chapter 1340: Dark Sea Territory (1) The Dragon Slaying Clan’s Winged Dragons were clearly outnumbered by the Winged Dragons of the two ships chasing from behind. Although they had spotted their pursuers early and the distance was still considerable, it was obvious that they were being entangled by the Winged Dragons. Swarming incessantly, like starved beasts, they desperately pounced, seizing anyone they saw.

They slowed their ship’s speed, but this was undoubtedly unacceptable. If the sailing speed were reduced, they would probably be surrounded before they even reached the Dark Sea Territory.

Meng Xiuluo made a round below deck and ran over, calling out, “Bargain goods, come help deal with those flying creatures. You mustn’t let them sink the ship or slow down our speed.” Since they lacked strength in the air, they could only rely on manual efforts. Fortunately, it would take some time for those ships to catch up, so there was still manpower available to handle those climbing up from beneath the water and those falling from above.

Ye Chen appeared to be pondering. It was very clear to the girl that this guy was considering whether to listen to her. Meng Xiuluo said, “Last time I called for help, you nearly drowned at sea, remember? Or do you want to try again and see if Su Zhanze catches you and spares your life?”

Ye Chen still found it hard to believe, but she wasn’t wrong.

“I can assure you, if they catch you, your fate won’t be any better than ours,” Meng Xiuluo continued. “Maybe, before anyone can save you, he’ll just drown you right away.”

Guo Yuyun looked at Ye Chen and said, “That girl seems to know about your feud with Su Zhanze.”

Ye Chen laughed “Ha.”

“Do you really think they came just to capture us? I guarantee they’re more interested in getting that Wolf King’s Ring you’re carrying. When the time comes, they’ll definitely try to cover up the truth, and the best way to do that is to kill us all. Then it’ll truly be unknown to gods and unnoticed by ghosts. Didn’t Ren Xiongbei meet such a fate? It would be killing three birds with one stone to remove you, an annoying love rival, as well.” Meng Xiuluo said, “You take care of those swooping from the sky, and I’ll deal with those coming up from the water.” With that, she led a group of people down below.

Ye Chen muttered, “That girl seems to know everything and is convinced that I’ll stand with them.”

“I think you’re captivated by her flounder eyes.”

“How is that possible, how could I be captivated by a pair of flounder eyes!”

“Right, plus her hot body.”

“You have a pretty hot body too.”

Guo Yuyun glared at him.

“However, she’s right. I guess Su Zhanze would turn a blind eye and kill you along with the others. He is capable of doing it. Last time he knew you were on the ship, he still unleashed the lightning with a vengeance.”

“That happened because of you,” retorted Guo Yuyun, splitting a tongue-flicking monster in front of her with her sword.

“I never provoked him. I’ve run all the way from the Central Plains to the Thirty-Six Islands and yet you say I provoked him.”

“Hasn’t Li Mo been in contact with my sister without your permission?” Guo Yuyun countered.

“Your insinuation really cuts deep. I’ve never allowed that; they were in contact in secret.”

“Then why didn’t you stop it?”

“Who am I to stop them if they want to get in touch?”

“Nonsense, I think you just didn’t want to stop them, so don’t blame Su Zhanze for hating you.”

“Is it because he saw those letters and thought they were written by me to your sister, that’s why he hates me?”

“You could always ask him,” she suggested.

“Better not, I really don’t want to end up like Ren Xiongbei, killed without anyone knowing.” With a leap, streaks of lightning were released, targeting the Winged Dragons in the front and striking three into the sea.

He would rather entrust his life to the flounder than to Su Zhanze. The flounder was indeed after the Wolf King’s Ring, but at least wouldn’t think of killing him, not at the moment anyway. So, when comparing the two, he felt it was slightly better to collaborate with the flounder.

“Are you really going to help the flounder?”

“Should I bet on Su Zhanze not killing me? I don’t see the need to take such a risk. In his eyes, I am the one who stole his sweetheart and then humiliated him on Paper Kite Island. He considers us irreconcilable. Killing me would remove the love rival; your sister would then be with him with no obstacles.” More bolts of lightning were unleashed at the Winged Dragons attempting to land on the ship.

“I think you just want to be with the flounder.”

“Hey, what time do you think it is now? Can’t you find a more appropriate moment to be jealous?” The girl had become the same as before, getting jealous easily as if it was in her nature to be so. Ye Chen used to enjoy teasing her, stimulating her by capitalizing on this.

“I am not jealous.”

The number of Winged Dragons swooping down increased, and Ye Chen continuously released lightning from his hands.

At this moment, they were divided into two groups, one dealing with the attack from the sky and the other from the water, trying their best to ensure the ship’s speed wasn’t affected by either.

A string of lightning bolts shot out. Although he wasn’t as confident against formidable opponents, dealing with those flying grasshoppers wasn’t too disgraceful for him.

Ma Jun saw they had slightly changed their course and glanced at the map, then hurriedly dashed towards Ling Li.

Ling Li said, “The guy who unleashed those lightning strikes must be that little scoundrel.”

He had practiced martial arts from the Dragon Slaying Secret Manual and knew what level of skill it took to execute them. To his knowledge, there were only three people alive capable of that level and Longhun had already been chased off in an unknown direction by Su Zhanze, leaving only that scruffy kid.

Therefore, he could confirm that the information was true; it had to be the guy with the Wolf King’s Ring. But he began to wonder why the guy wasn’t summoning magic power. It soon became clear to him that he was afraid of losing control.

Ma Jun handed the map to Ling Li, interrupting his excitement. Ling Li was still pondering over the situation, thinking that this time no one could escape, when Ma Jun presented the map, pointing out, “Dark Sea Territory.”

Ling Li grabbed the map and murmured, “They’re heading to the Dark Sea Territory?”

“Seems likely. They know they’re no match for us. According to the information from Slaughter Island, they have just over a hundred people, no match for us at all. Even if our other ship doesn’t make it here in time, they still couldn’t stand against us.”

Ling Li, who had just felt a surge of excitement, suddenly felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over him. He exclaimed, “We absolutely can’t let them escape to the Dark Sea Territory.” Once they reached the Dark Sea Territory, things would become much more complicated, and what might happen there was anyone’s guess.

Ma Jun also grew tense.

“We must seize the ring. Release all our Winged Dragons and the monsters we’ve prepared. Make those bastards work for it, no dilly-dallying. Hurry up and set them loose,” Ling Li said anxiously, wishing he could fly over there himself, but he knew that even though he had learned from the Dragon Slaying Secret Manual, he wasn’t invincible.

The number of Winged Dragons flying over was rapidly increasing.

Down below, the flounder called out, “Hurry! They must have realized we’re heading towards the Dark Sea Territory.”

Ye Chen pondered, “This fearless girl must be insane. It seems we’re really heading to the Dark Sea Territory.”

A swarm of Winged Dragons was slaughtered as they approached in larger numbers.

Ye Chen couldn’t remember exactly how many he had struck down, but it was certainly a dense crowd, though it still seemed like there were few people around.

The crazy girl below kept rallying the troops, shouting, “Don’t act like little girls. Show everyone you’re not little girls,” as if she wasn’t a girl herself.

Ye Chen nudged Guo Yuyun beside him and said, “It looks like Su Zhanze isn’t here, or he would have flown over by now.”

Guo Yuyun had noticed this too.

Meng Xiuluo called out, “Hey, cheapskate, can you focus and summon some magic power?” The pressure was clearly mounting as more and more Winged Dragons flew at them, threatening to blow the ship apart.

“If you dare to call me a cheapskate again, I’ll make you do it yourself,” Ye Chen said, growing angry.

“I’m calling you a cheapskate.”

The pressure on Ye Chen continued to build, and it seemed he was on the brink of not holding up anymore.

Releasing waves of powerful energy, Ye Chen prepared to unleash a torrent of power from the ring.

Guo Yuyun called out, “Are you crazy? Do you really want to listen to that girl? Aren’t you afraid of going berserk?”

“Ah, she’s right. If I don’t release a stronger energy soon, I might just end up drenched and pathetic. I bet you don’t want to swim around, searching for an island that may not even be there,” Ye Chen replied.

Guo Yuyun was left speechless with anger.

“I know. I’ve summoned it once before, so I have a measure of it.”

“I think you just like showing off.”

“What are you talking about? Haven’t you seen that our ship is about to be intercepted?” Ye Chen asked.

Guo Yuyun didn’t respond to him.

“Don’t worry. It should be fine.” Not summoning the power was not an option; it was impossible to deal with so many monsters without it. Plus, the two approaching ships were getting dangerously close. If the Winged Dragons didn’t sink them first, those monsters definitely would.

Ye Chen hurriedly summoned a surge of energy from the Wolf King’s Ring, unleashing a powerful force accompanied by lightning that spun rapidly as it struck, and a roar resounded. It wasn’t clear how many fell, but it must have been a large batch.

But they were still affected; the ships behind were getting closer and were now right in front of them. The Dark Sea Territory was looming just behind, a vague expanse barely visible. That must be the so-called Dark Sea Territory, with its sinister atmosphere, suffocating feeling, and the sense that many eyes were watching from the shadows, waiting for them to enter.
