Feng Yu Jiu Tian

Frightening sounds, loud as thunder, echoedthroughout the ship. The ship rocked and swayed violently, causing Feng Ming toalmost fall off the bed.

Suddenly, the sound of screaming piercedthe night sky.

The small lamp in the room shook, like itwanted to fall over. Almost as if it was feeling distress from the mysteriousevents, the flame blew out.

The surroundings immediately turned pitchblack.

“Duke Ming!” Luo Yun shouted. He got upquickly, anxiously wondering about what was occurring outside. He raced over tothe bed and pulled Feng Ming off, throwing a robe over, he coldly told him,“put it on.”

Calmly, Feng Ming put on the robe andcasually asked, “What happened?”

He felt a cold object being placed in hishands. Recognizing the thing in his hand as his sword, Feng Ming immediatelyfelt the urgency of the situation. There was a chance his sword would have tobe removed from its sheath if things turned bad later.

Boom! Crash! Bang!

A series of loud, violent sounds resoundedthrough the swaying ship. The helmsman must have been too late taking controlof the wheel, causing the ship to turn violently. Several people on board werethrown off balance and almost fell down.

The angry roars and terrified screams ofthe guards and women mixed together in the chaos.

“Please stay here Young Lord!” Luo Yunshouted to Feng Ming as he rushed towards the cabin door.

Feng Ming wanted to go out, sword in hand,as well, but was blocked by Luo Yun who told him to remain in the room.

“Duke Ming!” Rong Hu yelled out anxiouslyamidst the chaos as he ran over with several guards to protect Feng Ming.

The loud, roaring sounds continued toincrease. Throughout the ship, people were staggering left and right due to therocking of the ship. Those on board were repeatedly flung around and collidedwith one another while attempting to protect Feng Ming in a protective barrier.

FM: “What is happening?”

“Our fleet is currently under attack!” RongHu simply replied. “They chose the perfect time to set a trap. The strong rivercurrents are carrying wood down the river and ramming into our ship. I’m afraidthe ship will sink if this continues.”

FM: “How are Chiu Lan and the others?”

RH: “I have already made sure they aresafe.”

Feng Ming felt his anger quickly build up.“Who dares to attack the ship of the Xiao Clan’s master?”

RH: “Duke Ming, now is not the time todiscuss this matter.”

With the violent swaying of the ship,everyone was using all their effort to stay standing by leaning on something.

Suddenly, the atmosphere seemed to change.

Everything turned deathly quiet and still.

The nerves of everyone present seemed tohave been stretched to the extreme. They all looked at each other, feeling thesame sense of distress. Despite feeling anxious due to their ignorance of thesituation, they all held their positions surrounding Feng Ming, protecting him.

Boom!

Without warning, the shocks started up onceagain. The ship began trembling and making wailing noises. Fear struck theirhearts, and courage left as they realized the floor under their feet wasbeginning to tilt.

Unable to control his feet, Feng Mingstaggered and stumbled in all directions. Luo Yun quickly got a hold of him,preventing him from being thrown around any further.

Feng Ming gave him a look of gratitude.

Making a decision in his mind, Feng Minglooked over in the distance and announced,

“Everyone, let’s head out.”
