Their expressions turned solemn.
The Saintess was about to chase after the sea bandits, who had jumped into the water, when Su Xiaoxiao stopped her. “There’s no need.”
Those people had exhausted their stamina and were already at the end of their rope. Even if they were lucky enough to board the ship, they would not be able to fight anymore.
Xiahou Yi stood under the sail and looked at them from afar.
His gaze swept across Wei Ting, Su Xuan, and Baili Chen before finally landing on Su Xiaoxiao’s face.
Su Xiaoxiao met this death gaze again.
No matter how many times they looked at each other, it could not reduce the fear in her heart.
However, Su Xiaoxiao didn’t dodge and looked back at him stubbornly.
Wei Ting took off his cloak and gently draped it over Su Xiaoxiao’s shoulder. “The wind is strong. Take care that you might catch a cold.”
His seemingly casual actions were filled with disdain for Xiahou Yi.
With Xiahou Yi’s current cultivation, he naturally would not be easily angered by a young kid.
However, it was beyond Xiahou Yi’s expectations that they could find this place.
He was prepared. It was because he was careful, but it did not mean that he really thought that this group of young people had the ability to reach this step.
A meaningful glint flashed across Xiahou Yi’s eyes.
Qing’er was taking care of two patients in the cabin when she suddenly sensed that something was wrong. The sound of rowing was gone, replaced by a series of splashes.
She quickly came up to see what had happened, only to see them surrounded by large ships.
They were not ordinary ships, but a warship armored with supplies.
Qing’er’s expression changed drastically. She quickly walked to Su Xiaoxiao’s side. When she saw her lord opposite her, she hurriedly raised a sleeve to cover her face.
“What’s going on? Why are there so many ships? Where did they come from?”
She asked Su Xiaoxiao in a low voice.
Su Xiaoxiao glanced at Xiahou Yi opposite her. “You have to ask your good lord.”
Qing’er covered her face with one hand and secretly tugged at Su Xiaoxiao’s sleeve with the other. She whispered, “Lower your voice!”
Su Xiaoxiao said calmly, “Why are you hiding? Do you think your lord is blind?”
Qing’er closed her eyes and helplessly rolled down her sleeves. She looked guiltily at Xiahou Yi on the ship and fled into the cabin.
Although no one was paddling, the ship could still sail in Xiahou Yi’s direction on wind power.
The distance between the two ships closed.
Xiahou Yi was calm.
Su Xiaoxiao, Wei Ting, Su Xuan, and Baili Chen did not panic at all.
Qing’er stuck her head out of the passageway and quietly sized up both parties.
“Are these people crazy? Why aren’t they stopping the ship in this situation? We’re sheep entering the tiger’s den!”
“Take the helm! Go east! There are the least warships in the east, and it’s the easiest to break out!”
“What exactly are you doing? Are you standing there motionless? Have your acupoints been tapped, or are you scared silly?”
Qing’er wished she could rush over and steer the ship away!
Suddenly, Wei Ting said arrogantly, “Xiahou Yi, your death is here. Hand over the dragon crystals and surrender. I’ll leave your corpse intact!”
Qing’er trembled and almost fell off the ladder!
Are you alright?
We’re the ones being surrounded now!
Where did you get the confidence to be so arrogant?
Isn’t this guy afraid that with a command from her lord, he would throw all of them into the sea to feed the fish?
“Qing’er, what are you doing?”
Princess Hui An rubbed her eyes and walked out of the room.
Qing’er lowered her head and said to her, “Why are you out? Go back and lie down. When they fight later, remember to find a cabinet to hide!”
Princess Hui An asked in a daze, “Are they not done yet?”
Qing’er said in despair, “We’ve been surrounded by my lord’s navy. I’m really doomed this time. If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have been bewitched by that girl…”
Princess Hui An yawned and turned to return to the house.
Qing’er was dumbfounded. “You’re leaving just like that? Aren’t you worried? Aren’t you going to persuade them?”
Princess Hui An thought for a moment. “Oh, I have to persuade them.”
She climbed up and said to them, “Su Xuan, Little Sidekick, Brother Ting, be more ruthless.”
Qing’er was speechless.
–
The two large ships were only a hundred steps away, and the surrounding warships gradually surrounded them. Every warship pulled out a large crossbow and aimed at Su Xiaoxiao and the others.
On Xiahou Yi’s order, these crossbow bolts that were thicker than spears were going to turn their ship into a sieve!
Wei Ting continued, “Hey, Xiahou Yi! I gave you a chance. If you don’t hand over the dragon crystals, we’ll come and take your head!”
The general beside Xiahou Yi said, “You still dare to boast shamelessly at the brink of death. Fire!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a cold crossbow bolt sped towards Wei Ting.
Wei Ting hugged Su Xiaoxiao and dodged.
A fast and heavy angry arrow shot past Su Xuan.
Qing’er’s beautiful face turned pale as she hurriedly shrank her head.
The bolt pierced the deck in front of her.
Looking at the crossbow bolt that was even heavier than her wrist, Qing’er’s legs went weak.
Xiahou Yi pointed at Wei Ting. “Leave this behind as a puppet. Kill the rest.”
Wei Ting immediately said to Su Xiaoxiao, “Go in first!”
“I… won’t go in!”
Su Xiaoxiao realized where Wei Ting was referring to and decisively rejected him.
Wei Ting pointed at the passage of the cabin. “Go in from there. I’ll guard the entrance and not let anyone come over.”
Wei Ting saw how she entered and left the pharmacy…
Su Xiaoxiao looked at him blankly.
Another crossbow bolt shot over heavily. Wei Ting sent her down the cabin with a palm strike. Then, he jumped into the air and flipped to the side to dodge the attack.
The ship’s mast was shot down, and the huge sail fell, covering the deck in layers like waves.
Baili Chen and Su Xuan drew their swords and broke out of the sail!
Su Xuan dodged the arrows from all directions and jumped towards Xiahou Yi coldly.
Baili Chen covered him and pulled out crossbows that were inserted into the deck one after another, shattering the crossbows that were shot at Su Xuan!
Su Xuan finally approached Xiahou Yi.
However, before he could attack, a furious roar suddenly sounded from the ship opposite. “Stop! Otherwise, I’ll kill them!”
Su Xuan turned around.
Wei Ting and Baili Chen on the ship also turned around at the same time.
Two sweat-soaked experts pushed out Su Xiaoxiao and Princess Hui An.
Two long sabers were placed on their necks.
They had been hiding in the water tank on the ship. Taking advantage of the huge commotion just now, they quietly sneaked into the cabin and kidnapped Su Xiaoxiao and Princess Hui An.
The armored general kicked Su Xuan’s acupoint.
Su Xuan’s acupoints were sealed. He knelt on one knee and the Rakshasa Sword left his hand.
Xiahou Yi looked down at Su Xuan.
The general understood and raised his hand to grab it. He sucked the Rakshasa Sword into his palm and respectfully presented it to Xiahou Yi. “My lord.”
Xiahou Yi held the Rakshasa Sword and casually twirled it. The tip of the sword was placed on Su Xuan’s shoulder. “It’s a pity to kill him. Make him into a puppet.”
The general cupped his fists and said, “Yes! My lord! I’ll send him down now! I’ll personally capture the other one for my lord!”
Su Xuan looked up at Xiahou Yi.
Suddenly, he smiled slightly. “I’m afraid someone won’t agree to let me be a puppet.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a long spear broke through the wind and waves, carrying a sharp sound that tore through the air, like a dragon’s roar echoing in people’s ears.
Xiahou Yi also heard this sound.
However, before he could see where this spear came from, he saw his hand holding the Rakshasa Sword being cut off!
Hot blood splattered on the general’s face!
The general thought that his lord had slit Rakshasa’s throat.
When he opened his eyes again, his lord’s right hand was gone. A thin wrist was bare, and blood spurted out like a pillar!
Everyone was stunned!
“My lord!”
“My lord!”
“My lord!”
Xiahou Yi held his wrist in pain.
He turned to look.
The black battleships were like mighty and domineering black dragons swimming over under the deafening war drums and horns.
On the leading general’s ship, Su Li hit the war drum with all his might.
The soldiers sweated profusely as they rowed.
Su Mo stood tall and straight. He was wearing silver armor and a helmet as he stood at the bow with a cold expression.
“Triple-bow ballistae… It’s a triple-bow ballistae!”
A soldier shouted.
They did not recognize which country this navy was from, but they recognized the weapon that the other party used to attack them.
The three bow crossbows were more than ten times stronger than ordinary large crossbows!
No wonder even his lord’s hand was severed—
Su Mo looked in the direction of his sister and brother and raised his hand calmly. “Full speed ahead!”
