Chapter 789: Chapter 789 Lame Mandarin, I speak better than the old man
Under the night sky above the sea, Qingxuan clearly saw a crowd rapidly approaching from the direction of A Country’s territorial waters. People were stepping on the waves, moving as if they were on flat ground, with waves blooming under their feet like an extraordinary spectacle.
This is bad, the newcomers have ill intentions!
Bai Ze exclaimed, “Master, what should we do?”
Liao Sisi, the junior sister, was so scared she lost all composure, “Master, should we go ashore and hide?”
Canglan Island was vast, with lush branches and dense foliage that cast deep shadows, large enough for them to temporarily hide, and then wait for others to come to their aid.
Liao Sisi’s words led many disciples to nod in agreement, good idea.
A trace of conflict flashed in Qingxuan’s eyes, reminded of Bai Chuwei’s profile when she had first come to borrow something–Bai Chuwei had lent it to her without a moment’s hesitation…
“No! If we hide on the island, they will immediately there. What they might do on the island, no one knows.” Qingxuan’s whiskers quivered as he spoke at an unusually rapid pace, “Now is an era of the rule of law, they wouldn’t dare do anything to us.”
Qingxuan remembered Bai Ze mentioning that cultivators had often been spotted scouting around Canglan Island, and some had nearly forced their way onto it.
They all came prepared!
When they were on the island, those cultivators had trouble coming ashore, and even if they did, it wouldn’t be easy to capture them all. But now it was different. They were preparing to return and everyone was off the island. If those cultivators swarmed over, they could easily capture the entire group.
What an elaborate scheme!
Old Qingxuan’s temper flared up instantly–he could be shrewd and adaptable when needed, but he had spine when it mattered and absolutely wouldn’t show weakness.
The man leading the attack shouted in somewhat awkward Chinese, “Leave behind the Magic Artifact, leave behind the Space Artifact and you will not be killed!”
Senior brother Bai Ze charged forward, his claw tearing open the sleeve of the leading man’s outfit, and then his right hand formed a fist, which he slammed harshly into the man’s cheek.
More and more cultivators were bearing down on them, closing in like zombies besieging a city, nearly wrapping them up like dumplings.
“Leave behind the Magic Artifact, or we’ll make you kneel and cry!”
Seeing that all his disciples had already joined the fray, battling the group of A Country cultivators, Qingxuan suddenly spat with disdain, “What kind of broken Mandarin are you speaking? It’s not even as good as this old fellow’s!”
Qingxuan clutched the hairpin tightly in his hand and recited the incantation Bai Chuwei had taught him in that salty Mandarin.
The tide surged, raising waves more than ten meters high, instilling a primal fear in everyone’s hearts, with some instinctively closing their eyes.
When they opened their eyes again, “???”
They were utterly dumbfounded!
There was nothing on the sea’s surface; Canglan Island, which had been coveted by many organizations, had vanished without a trace, as if it had never existed, like a dream.
Qingxuan held the hairpin tightly, a cold smile on his lips.
The man leading them, Li Can, his eyes shining brightly, suddenly leaped up and plunged into the crowd. With the speed of lightning, he snatched the hairpin from Qingxuan’s hand, then he grabbed Qingxuan by the collar, lifted him high into the air, and demanded, “Good treasure, good treasure, tell me the incantation.”
Such a good treasure indeed–had anyone not seen it with their own eyes, who would believe a Space Artifact could contain an entire island within it?
This was a top-tier Space Artifact!
The surrounding disciples looked on in horror, and, led by Bai Ze, they all shouted in unison, “Master!”
