While in the Elf World, the one who sent Xiao Shuxiang the message was only his brothers. Although Yi Wen and Xiao Lu said that Ling Qing Zhu was with them, he never heard the white-haired girl's voice.
In his message, Ling Qing Zhu said he was with Lan Guan Zhi. The other Xiao Shuxiang friends were always walking around in the Middle Sky Empire and had only returned home at night.
".. Don't worry about your friend. They're in good shape,"
Xiao Shuxiang was waiting for Ling Qing Zhu's voice to follow, but it seemed like it was already done. It made her blink a few times.
Right now, Xiao Shuxiang was inside his room, he was sitting together with Liu Xi Ling and Rin Ai. The two people nearby also heard a voice coming out from the paper stork that was on the table.
"Is this voice the White Cat that you told me about?"
"Yes,"
Liu Xi Ling rubbed his cheeks slowly, then shook his head softly and said that this White Cat was too stiff, either because she was shy or did not like Xiao Shuxiang.
".. He didn't say at all, he just told you about your friends, that was too short. Not to mention he didn't ask you about it, aiih.. What kind of girl do you like that?"
Xiao Shuxiang exhaled softly upon hearing Liu Xi Ling's opinion, he then patted gently on his forehead.
Long enough he waited for his paper stork to come and was only given a few sentence report. Though if it was Yi Wen or Xiao Lu.. The message will last almost an hour.
".. White cats are too talkative. Poor little friend of mine, he's delivering messages that don't even last three minutes here.."
Xiao Shuxiang rubbed the head of his paper stork. He then replied to a message from Ling Qing Zhu, naturally with a slight nagging of him.
".. Other than the condition of Brother Jing and the others, you should also say about your own condition. At least tell me if you're thinking about me, missing me, dreaming about me, or something like that. You're a girl, you can't be a little romantic. Should I do it?"
Liu Xi Ling gave Xiao Shuxiang a strange look. He felt this young man beside him start to be shameless. The way to bluntly will make the girl who receives this paper stork later will not be able to sleep well.
Every three days, the paper storks that Lan Guan Zhi and Yang Shu sent out always came. Interestingly, he only appeared while his Master was inside the room.
The next message from Ling Qing Zhu was quite shocking to Xiao Shuxiang. It was unexpected that the White Cat could utter the words she was waiting for. Although it sounded like this girl was being taught by someone.
".. I. always..wait for you...here."
Hu Li who happened to be with Xiao Shuxiang involuntarily opened his mouth. He and his master looked at each other before finally exhaling softly.
"Miss Ling doesn't seem to have any feelings for you, Young Master. His voice was like he was spelling a word, it was definitely not from his heart,"
Xiao Shuxiang exhaled softly, "Hu Li, I think the White Cat is similar to Lan Zhi. They both suck, so I want to slap her ass,"
Xiao Shuxiang's cruise this time went smoothly. Liu Xi Ling was finally able to spend some time cleaning up because other than him, the little boy named Rin Ai was also able to make Xiao Shuxiang no longer seasick.
During the twenty days of sailing the sea, there was no difficulty blocking Fan Chuan's ship. His ability in giving command made his ship able to break through the storm he had predicted before.
Fan Chuan certainly knows the right months to make a long cruise, but it is important to know that not every calculation can be exact.
The problem was, Fan Chuan was only predicting about the storm alone, he seemed to have forgotten about the obstacles coming from other humans.
On the twenty-second day, Fan Chuan's ship was blocked by a large black ship. The size of the ship was twice that of Fan Chuan.
The gripping aura of the ship made the passengers including Xiao Shuxiang feel that they were now faced with danger.
"Sister Xiao.."
Rin Ai held tightly onto Xiao Shuxiang's hand, for some reason she felt afraid of the black ship that was sailing closer.
Liu Xi Ling, Liu Min Jie, and Hu Li immediately drew swords as they saw six muscular men from the black ship in front of them. From the look on the face of the man can be known they are not a good person.
"Is it possible for pirates?"
"Of course, there's no identity whatsoever on the screen including the body of the ship,"
Liu Min Jie answered Liu Xi Ling's question. Even without an identity, he believes the people he saw were targeting them.
These six men had red clothes with a crow pattern. Xiao Shuxiang heard one of the passengers slightly exclaim that the black ship belonged to a pirate swordsman who dubbed himself as the 'Sea Cleaner'.
Fan Chuan who was at the helm of the ship was visibly upset. Though the path he chose was the safest and fastest route to get to the Northern Continent. But unexpectedly even met with 'Sea Cleaner'.
Xiao Shuxiang frowned upon hearing the nickname of the pirate in front of him. The name 'Sea Cleaners' did not reflect the ferocity of pirates at all, let alone terrifying.
".. That's a strange name,"
"Young Master, you probably wouldn't think of this kind of thing if you knew the meaning of their name!!"
Just now Hu Li wanted to explain, six consecutive attacks directly led to the ship he was riding on.
Xiao Shuxiang reflexively took out Yinng xiong and repelled the consecutive attack with a single swing of the sword in his left hand.
!!
The harshness of the impact sound makes the wind quite strong. From this, Xiao Shuxiang was able to judge the level of strength of the opponent, obviously things would be bad if a fight were to occur.
"Hmm, looks like one of those reckless little fishes is fighting back,"
?!
Xiao Shuxiang, Hu Li, and the rest of the passengers instantly turned their eyes to a man who appeared to be floating without the aid of the Flying Sword.
The man, who is 44 years old, has a stern face with scarring on his cheek and the edge of his right lip.
The man's clothes were black with a red crow pattern. His posture reminded Xiao Shuxiang of Gong Peng, one of the robbers he had fought.
"GrandMaster Sky Level,"
Liu Min Jie gulped as she could not read the drifting man's practice. Not only him, but the cultivators beside him as well.
Only the three cultivators on this ship were practically at the Earth-level GrandMaster, even then it was already the highest. The other cultivators were only at the Master Foundation.
"You look strong and your sword seems to be pretty decent too. How about you get down on your knees and give up before I blow up your ship,"
"Hmph, so haughty. Who dare to make me kneel? Just so you know, my weapon is even more valuable than your life,"
Xiao Shuxiang asked Hu Li to look after Rin Ai, he then held Liu Xi Ling's hand in place of the 9-year-old girl.
It is very troublesome to hold Rin Ai's hand while she fights. So instead Xiao Shuxiang chose Liu Xi Ling. This was because the dark purple-haired beautiful girl beside him was able to help himself.
The pirate who spoke to Xiao Shuxiang was none other than the head of the Sea Cleaner, Zanjin. He was ambitious and, having never lost, made himself feel haughty.
Zanjin was completely unaffected by the speech of the young man holding the pretty girl's hand. His ability to control emotions made him a respected chairman.
Zanjin did not like to talk much, with a quick movement of himself pulling weapons and flowing Qi on his sword, the next second he swung the heirloom with a truly great force.
Xiao Shuxiang resisted the attack that came by wearing Yinng xiong. He was also assisted by Hu Li and several other cultivators.
The moment Xiao Shuxiang brought Liu Xi Ling to fight with Zanjin in midair.. Soon the six Zanjin men attacked the other cultivators and Fan Chuan's ship.
THE TRAANG!
The clash of the weapons of both sides sounded so loud. The passengers who incidentally were just ordinary humans immediately fled and hid in their respective cabins.
Zanjin and his friends not only robbed the treasure, but also sank the ship he had robbed. Of course, all passengers will be saved so that later it can be sold when docked later.
A BAAAM!
Fan Chuan's ship became a battleground between the cultivators and the six fellow Zanjin. He ordered his crew to disembark the passengers using existing lifeboats.
".. Don't let anyone die. This ship can be destroyed at any time, so save them as soon as possible."
The crew of Fan Chuan nodded, they rushed over and carried out the task they had been given.
THE TRAANG!
Xiao Shuxiang and Liu Xi Ling continued to attack Zanjin while still holding hands. Both of them cannot be compact.
When Xiao Shuxiang launched an attack to block the attack from Zanjin, Liu Xi Ling instead put on a protective seal.
As a result his attack was even restrained and resulted in himself and the young green-eyed girl he held was exposed to his own style.
A BAAAAM!
Xiao Shuxiang and Liu Xi Ling were injured, some shaking was seen on the clothes of the two. Their faces looked slightly blackened, even Xiao Shuxiang could feel some blood coming out of his cheeks.
One drop of Xiao Shuxiang's blood fell into the sea. Whether he was aware of it or not, but his blood had made something deep in the ocean aware of his presence.
In just three breaths, the wound on Xiao Shuxiang's body recovered. He took out a pill and gave it to Liu Xi Ling. He had just grumbled at this girl when the wound on Liu Xi Ling's body had disappeared.
".. It's a good thing we're both not dead, because it would be a shame to hear the news that I took my last breath from my own attack,"
"It's all your fault, you didn't tell me you were going to attack. So it wasn't my fault,"
Xiao Shuxiang was instead arguing with Liu Xi Ling, he was obviously not willing to take the blame. Both of them only realized when they heard Zanjin laugh and began to tease them.
Liu Xi Ling became annoyed, he enveloped his sword with Qi and then along with Xiao Shuxiang himself came back against Zanjin.
THE TRAANG!
Now they just saw their cohesiveness. Xiao Shuxiang covered up Liu Xi Ling's flaws, while he was also protected by this girl when Zanjin's attack came.
A BAAAM!
One part of Fan Chun's ship was hit by a stray attack from Hu Li's fight with Zanjin's partner. You could say, only the ship belonging to this pirate is still in good condition.
THE TRAANG!
Zanjin swung his sword. He even deliberately launched several attacks towards the ship that Hu Li was still inside.
A BAAAM!
Fan Chuan's ship was again damaged, this condition made the atmosphere even more boisterous. There were only three lifeboats that Fan Chuan had, while the overall passengers of his ship, both himself and his crew numbered over fifty people.
Liu Min Jie and Hu Li seemed overwhelmed. Especially now, Zanjin's colleagues even increased by four people. More importantly, their opponents had a practice in the Mortal Level GrandMaster.
"We can't win,"
One of the pale-faced cultivators, he was holding his right arm that was hit by the attack, visible blood pouring out at the corners of his forehead and lips.
THE TRAANG!
Xiao Shuxiang and Liu Xi Ling still continued to fight with Zanjin. He had used the Blood Control Style, but the Soul Restraint Seal and Yinng xiong simultaneously stopped him.
Liu Xi Ling did not know this, because only Xiao Shuxiang felt it. His Qi felt suppressed by the Soul Restraint Seal and his strength felt sucked by Yinng xiong.
"I feel like I'm being stopped from committing murder. Hmph, maybe too. Let's see if you can stop me from killing this guy or not."
Xiao Shuxiang smiled faintly and subconsciously held tightly onto Liu Xi Ling's hand. He then signaled for the beautiful girl beside him to prepare. He then darted along with Liu Xi Ling and attacked Zanjin without a second pause.
