Ling Tian Sword God

”Everyone’s here. Please make some preparations, and let’s set off!”

The caravan leader was in a good mood. With the addition of Lan Xingling, he felt much more at ease about the safety of this sea voyage.

The fleet of Bright Moon Tower was quite large this time; there were a total of five large ships. These massive ships were fifty zhang long and ten zhang wide, capable of accommodating over a hundred people.

When the fleet set sail, Ling Chen cultivated in the cabin for two days. Only after the fleet had moved a certain distance from the coast did he finally emerge from the cabin and come to the deck.

”Brother Wuchen has finally graced us with his presence. I didn’t expect you to be such a cultivation fanatic.”

Lan Xingling glanced at Ling Chen and said indifferently.

”Diligence makes up for one’s shortcomings.”

Ling Chen said casually.

”But I didn’t expect someone of Miss Lan’s noble status to be interested in such a bodyguard task.”

He looked at Lan Xingling, steering the conversation in another direction.

With Lan Xingling’s status, obtaining a thousand Spirit Nurturing Pills from the Lan Family, a Saint Family, would be a simple matter, with no need to get involved in such a risky mess.

Clearly, she wasn’t here for the reward, just like him.

”I’ve heard that the Blood Wolf Pirate Group has been rampant lately. It’s a good opportunity to test their strength and hone our skills.”

After speaking, Lan Xingling also looked at Ling Chen, ”Why, isn’t that your purpose, Brother Wuchen?”

”I don’t have the leisure of Miss Lan,”

Ling Chen shook his head, ”I’m just an ordinary man, here for the reward.”

”Is that so?”

Lan Xingling didn’t believe Ling Chen at all. She couldn’t tell which of his words were true and which were false, making them unreliable.

However, the more he behaved this way, the more curious she became. Ling Chen was so cautious about hiding his identity; he must have some secret he couldn’t reveal. She secretly vowed to uncover all of Ling Chen’s secrets.

”Ahead is the region frequented by the Blood Wolf Pirate Group. Everyone, be careful.”

The caravan leader walked out of the cabin and reminded everyone.

”Don’t worry, with Miss Lan overseeing things here, even if the Blood Wolf Pirate Group mobilizes their entire force, they won’t be our match.”

Everyone was relaxed. With Miss Lan present, there was nothing to worry about.

The caravan leader smiled and shook his head. He knew everyone had a point, but he still wanted everyone to be ready for combat at any moment.

The first day after entering the sea area was calm.

The second day was still the same.

By the third day, a layer of haze began to envelop the sea area.

Thick fog shrouded the sea, preventing visibility beyond a thousand meters.

Suddenly, the dense fog in front dispersed, revealing a gigantic Blood Sail Giant Ship. On the deck of the giant ship, a Blood Wolf Banner was hanging. Behind this blood-colored giant ship were seven or eight slightly smaller ships, forming a formation, exuding an astonishingly murderous aura.

”The Blood Wolf Pirate Group has indeed come!”

The caravan leader’s expression changed. Although he had expected to encounter the Blood Wolf Pirate Group, he couldn’t help but feel a thrill of fear when they actually did.

After all, this Blood Wolf Pirate Group was a pirate force that made all the warriors in Xuzhou shudder at the mere mention of it.

”The Bright Moon Tower’s caravan is full of fat sheep. After completing this job, it will surely be a great fortune.”

On the leading Blood Sail Giant Ship stood several figures. The leading man, dressed in a blood robe, gazed at the Bright Moon Tower’s merchant ships with eyes like a viper, a sinister smile on his face.

This man was none other than the leader of the Blood Wolf Pirate Group, Lu Yuanzhi.

”Don’t underestimate them. According to the spies, among Bright Moon Tower’s experts this time, there’s a rather tricky little girl who’s not to be underestimated.”

Beside Lu Yuanzhi stood a gray-clothed elder. The aura emanating from this elder was extremely obscure, his gaze blank, like a dead man.

”You’re referring to that Lan Family girl, right?”

Lu Yuanzhi didn’t seem overly concerned, smiling and shaking his head. ”That girl indeed has some skills, but with Old Ming here this time, what waves can she possibly stir up? It’s not worth worrying about.”

Hearing this, Old Ming said no more. Although Lan Xingling was ranked twelfth on the Hidden Dragon List as a young expert, in his eyes, she was still a junior. Besides, with both him and Lu Yuanzhi taking action this time, what could that Lan Family girl possibly achieve with just her strength against both of them?

”The one on the leader’s ship is Lu Yuanzhi!” A sharp-eyed expert spotted Lu Yuanzhi’s figure from afar, and his face immediately showed a hint of panic. ”I didn’t expect Lu Yuanzhi to personally come. I wonder who the gray-clothed person beside him is, could they be someone he hired for help?”

”One Lu Yuanzhi is already frightening enough. If this helper is comparable to him, then it’s going to be dangerous.”

The square-faced middle-aged man’s expression turned grim.

”Why panic before the fight even starts?”

The caravan leader shook his head, scolding the square-faced middle-aged man. ”We also have ten Sky Apex Realm experts. If it comes to a fight, are we truly afraid of them?”

”That’s right.”

Ling Chen nodded, ”We aren’t weak either. If we really have to fight, victory or defeat remains uncertain.”

”Humph, so many renowned experts, and yet this young brother seems more composed than any of you. Truly disappointing for an old man like me.”

The caravan leader shook his head, appearing quite displeased.

”Damn, this brat is just showing off.”

The Sky Apex Realm guardian experts of Bright Moon Tower were all inwardly resentful. Now, they were quite eager to see exactly what kind of strength Ling Chen had to dare to speak in such a manner, seemingly oblivious to anything.

”Stay focused, the enemy is here.”

At this moment, Lan Xingling’s voice rang out. Only then did everyone quickly look ahead, spotting that at some point, the Blood Sail Giant Ship had already approached within a thousand meters. At that moment, a dozen or so figures suddenly leapt out, each exuding a fierce aura, standing in the air, evidently all experts at the Sky Apex Realm level.

The leading two were unmistakably Lu Yuanzhi and Old Ming. Their Sky Apex Realm Ninth Level auras erupted almost simultaneously, instantly sweeping across the entire sky!

”What, this gray-clothed person is also at the Sky Apex Realm Ninth Level!”

All of Bright Moon Tower’s guardian experts turned pale. Dealing with Lu Yuanzhi alone was manageable, especially since Lan Xingling was there to handle him. But now, there was an additional Ninth Level gray-clothed person, creating an immediate disparity.

All eyes fell on Lan Xingling. Seemingly aware of what these people were thinking, Lan Xingling furrowed her delicate brows suddenly. ”Looking at me won’t help. Even if it’s me, at most I can handle one of them. To take on both would be courting death.”

Upon hearing Lan Xingling’s words, the faces of the guardian experts turned even paler.
