Free Web NovelChapter 833: Chapter 87: Stormy Waves at Sea
Old Zhao’s friend was unconvinced, "The Angry Whale Gang has plenty of Transcendent Cultivators too!"
"Do they have more than the Five Immortal Sect?"
"That’s not the point, who has more doesn’t mean they are stronger, which is what you just said!"
These two were like the typical old men at the village entrance, after a day’s work when resting their feet, they couldn’t help but boast to each other, arguing passionately and strategically.
Even though they had never left their town in their entire life, they could talk at length about the situation of various nations and give advice to dynastic rulers.
If you took their words seriously, you surely shouldn’t.
But they were just amusing themselves in their boredom, with no ill intentions, not looking to deceive others.
They were merely deluding themselves about their ordinary lives.
Old Zhao suddenly snorted coldly.
In that snort, there was a smug sense of pride as if he alone had grasped the truth.
He said mysteriously, "Don’t you know, that big shot behind the Angry Whale Gang... is gone?"
"That’s hilarious," scoffed Old Zhao’s friend, "Do you even know who that big shot behind the Angry Whale Gang is? That’s Elder Hai Zongming of the Diao Hai Building! You know nothing!"
Having said that, he gave Jiang Wang a glance, "Young man, you also know nothing, better not join this guy in making a fuss." freewёbnoνel.com
It seemed he was very displeased with Jiang Wang’s support for Old Zhao.
Hai Zongming had been dead for several months.
Jiang Wang smiled and stayed silent, signaling them to continue their argument without minding him.
Whether it was the Five Immortal Sect or the Angry Whale Gang, neither had anything to do with them, yet the two men were arguing until their faces turned red.
This was a scene often seen in the lives of ordinary people. It was both smoke and fire.
Jiang Wang was not the kind to mind, nor did he think these ordinary people could not offend him. He listened quietly, just like an ordinary young man attentively listening to the advice of his elders.
Old Zhao was visibly shaken, and he felt that the rumor he had heard might not be credible. An Elder of the Diao Hai Building, how could something happen to him so easily?
But he still forcefully continued, "And the big shot behind the Five Immortal Sect is no weaker, isn’t it Granny Bizhu? Isn’t she also an Elder of the Diao Hai Building?"
Jiang Wang’s heart stirred.
He knew that Zhu Bijing was under the tutelage of Granny Bizhu, an Elder of the Diao Hai Building.
Zhu Suyao, the sister of Zhu Bijing, was the most talented disciple under Granny Bizhu. Later, she suffered from love and was harmed by Hu Shaomeng, causing her cultivation to be hindered. Granny Bizhu even secured her an opportunity to enter the Heavenly Abode Secret Land to try her luck, which was the same time Jiang Wang and others entered the Secret Realm. But while Jiang Wang emerged successfully, Zhu Suyao unfortunately got lost in it.
As an Elder of the Diao Hai Building, having intricate connections with some small sects in the Near Sea Archipelago was quite normal.
It was also one of the ways for the Diao Hai Building to maintain its influence over the Near Sea Archipelago.
But from the conversation of the two men, it seemed that Granny Bizhu and Hai Zongming, each supporting their own sect, were in a rivalry, apparently with some conflict.
Old Zhao and his friend, the two "supporters" who were far removed, could argue so heatedly, one could only imagine how intense the dispute between the actual sects was.
Was it a strategy of the Diao Hai Building for breeding gu? Or was there some conflict between Granny Bizhu and Hai Zongming?
Then they heard Old Zhao’s friend continue, "Such Immortals, who knows how long they can live. How could they just perish so easily? What do you think?"
Old Zhao’s momentum weakened a bit, "But there are also not a few who went to the outer sea and never returned, right?"
"You think something happened to them? Those Transcendent Cultivators might have found some carefree existence elsewhere! Do you know there are immortal mountains overseas? You, who labor every day under the sun for a living, what do you know?"
Old Zhao’s friend was buoyant, pressing his advantage, "Do you even know... Oh my!"
His words were cut off as he suddenly shouted.
Because right at that moment, the dragon-bone ship suddenly rocked violently!
There were exclamations all over the cabin, and all the passengers were thrown into disarray.
Only Jiang Wang remained seated in his original spot, unmoved.
Meanwhile, the panicked voices of sailors came from the outside, "Sea... Sea Beast!"
"The Sea Beast has gone berserk!" This voice was terribly bleak, as if facing doomsday. freёwebnoѵel.com
"Your mother, your mother!" Amidst the violent rocking of the ship, Old Zhao bit his teeth, trying to hold onto something, only to feel a gust of wind blow by his side, leaving an empty space.
The smiling young man who had been watching him banter with his old friend was nowhere to be seen.
He quickly realized something and struggled to his feet, stumbling out of the cabin.
Transcendent Cultivator!
He had just shared a boat with a Transcendent Cultivator!
He was going to witness a Transcendent Cultivator in battle with a Sea Beast!
Your mother, what a story he’d have to tell! he thought.
But back to Jiang Wang, who took a few steps out of the cabin, stood on the deck, and saw in front of the ship, a Sea Beast the size of a three-story building, shaped like an octopus.
The Dragonbone vessel could carry thirty people; it wasn’t small by any means, but next to the Sea Beast, it was like a child’s toy. Like a Rattle-drum, a cotton candy, it could be easily destroyed.
The Sea Beast had three enormous eyes, all filled with a sense of madness. It had clearly completely lost control.
It had eight tentacles, four moving underwater and four flailing wildly on the surface.
Giant waves rose and fell with its movements, carrying a momentum of annihilating everything.
On the deck lay despairing sailors, and the captain of the ship had already rolled into the sea. Despite being a swimmer, in such violent waves, he could only struggle desperately, in vain, for life.
Amidst the tremendous roaring, amidst the screams and despair,
there was a clean and smooth sound of a sword singing.
A dazzling sword light traced an extremely elegant arc through the sky.
One could see a glowing young man, holding a Longsword, leaping between the sea and the sky.
He stepped on the air, turning a couple of times, with scattered blue clouds underfoot.
Bang, bang, bang!
That was the sound of huge tentacles being cut off and falling into the sea.
Blood spurted out like a fountain, tinting the surrounding seawater red in an instant.
"Roar!" The Sea Beast roared.
From its mouth, it spit out countless sharp water jets.
Sharp and keen, they filled the air around Jiang Wang with their piercing sound.
Jiang Wang tapped his toes, stepped on clouds, and perfectly weaved through the gaps between the water jets, while his Longsword kept slashing, the sword light surged, dissecting the water jets from behind.
If he was in it for the fight, he could have avoided them. But if the water jets were left unchecked, they would surely hit the Dragonbone ship, and the casualties would be countless.
Jiang Wang, having shattered the dense water jets, took another step to land atop the Sea Beast’s head.
His form swept past the three eyes of the Sea Beast, the cold light flashing, and all three eyes were pierced! The murky liquid within the eyeballs, along with blood, spurted out together.
The Sea Beast became even more frenzied, but was completely unable to locate Jiang Wang, only able to open its mouth wide and keep shooting water jets.
Meanwhile, two of the tentacles lurking underwater split off, flailing wildly in front of it,
It was indeed insane, not even realizing its own water jets were stabbing its tentacles.
In its mad rage, the area around the Sea Beast was almost completely devoid of safety, entirely affected by the rampage.
But its vitality was extremely robust, and despite the heavy injuries inflicted by Jiang Wang, it didn’t seem to weaken in the slightest.
As if its blood would never run out, as if its vitality would never be exhausted.
Jiang Wang’s steps in the air were as leisurely as walking in a garden, his sword swings casual, inevitably causing the Sea Beast pain and injury.
In the midst of the terrifying waves, his ease and flair were indescribable, with the stature of a superior being. Admirable!
But only he himself knew the difficulty of the situation.
This Sea Beast seemed unkillable! The more injured it got, the more furious and powerful it seemed to become.
