Wu Shattered Star River

#166 - Chapter 166 Is it really such a coincidence?

The next day, they continued onward. Jiang Han and the others were lucky, as they didn't encounter any danger the entire day, only a few low-level sea beasts approached.

"There's a warship!"

At noon on the third day, Zuo Yiyi, who was investigating the situation, exclaimed in surprise. Jiang Lang, who was resting with his eyes closed, immediately took out the Ghost Flag.

The small boat stopped, and the Ghost Flag covered it, causing the boat to disappear into thin air.

In the Chaotic Star Sea, the danger comes not only from sea beasts or alien races, but also from humans.

In this boundless sea, murder and theft are commonplace, so encountering people in the Chaotic Star Sea is very dangerous.

Jiang Lang had instructed them earlier that if they encountered a warship, they should call him immediately. He would use the Ghost Flag to make the small boat invisible, thus avoiding detection.

Jiang Lang activated the Ghost Flag immediately, but the warship in the distance flew over quickly and stopped directly above the small boat.

"Prepare for battle!"

A cold light flashed in Jiang Han's eyes, and a battle knife appeared in her hand. The people on this warship had clearly discovered them, and the ship slowly hovered above them, giving the feeling that they were not here with good intentions.

The warship was a small one, but it was exquisite, and it was clear at a glance that it was not cheap.

The warship was divided into two levels. On the lower level, two people stood on the front and rear decks, respectively, wearing the same brocade clothes. There was also a crescent moon symbol on the chest of their robes, making it clear that these four people came from the same sect.

On the top deck of the warship, there was a grand master's chair carved with dragons and phoenixes. An old man with white hair and a long beard, wearing the same brocade clothes, sat leisurely, with two beautiful maids kneeling on either side to serve him.

To be able to travel in the Chaotic Star Sea with four people, this old man was clearly a strong expert. Judging from his bearing and posture, he also seemed like a big figure who had been in a high position for a long time.

At this moment, this big figure was looking down below. His gaze was deep and penetrating, as if he could see through the Ghost Flag and make eye contact with everyone.

Jiang Han and the others didn't dare to breathe loudly. They sensed that the four people on the lower deck were all in the Mountain Sea Realm. Although they were in the early stages of the Mountain Sea Realm, they were not qualified to be on the second level.

It was clear that the old man above was very strong, at least in the Reincarnation Realm.

The old man didn't speak, but leisurely picked up a cup of tea and drank it.

Just at that moment, the sea in the distance churned, and a terrifying aura spread out. A black shadow was rapidly approaching from the seabed, as if a giant sea beast was attacking them.

Misfortunes never come singly!

Jiang Han and the others became even more nervous. They already felt that the old man in front of them, whose intentions were unknown, was very difficult to deal with, and now a giant beast had suddenly appeared? This was truly a double whammy.

"Get lost!"

The old man on the warship put down the teacup in his hand and snorted coldly. An even more terrifying aura emanated from him.

That aura was like a high mountain suddenly pressing down, making Jiang Han, Jiang Lang, and the others feel extremely suppressed in their hearts, and even their breathing stopped.

"So strong!"

Jiang Han's palms, which were holding the battle knife, began to sweat. The old man's aura made her feel that he was even stronger than the expert guarding the warship they had ridden on before.

That expert guarding the warship was at least at the peak of the Heaven Human Realm, and very likely in the Void Breaking Realm.

Then the old man in front of them was basically definitely in the Void Breaking Realm!

The giant beast in the distance seemed to have been shocked by the old man's aura. The black shadow quickly sank into the seabed, and the terrifying beastly aura quickly disappeared.

The demon beast left, and the old man's aura gradually subsided. Cold sweat dripped from Jiang Han and the others' foreheads, and Jiang Lang was even a little panicked.

If he was a Void Breaking Realm expert, the disguise of the Ghost Flag would definitely be easily seen through.

The warship stopped here, and the group was somewhat unclear about what this mysterious expert meant, but it was definitely not a good thing.

Just when the group didn't know what to do, the old man actually spoke, looking directly at them and saying, "I invite you young friends to come up and have a chat."

As expected!

Jiang Han's heart sank to the bottom. Such a strong expert, they were like a few mice in front of an elephant. Even if they detonated their divine altars, they would probably not be able to hurt a single hair on the old man, right?

Jiang Han turned her gaze to Jiang Lang, whose eyes were flickering, and he didn't know what to do either.

A Mountain Sea Realm early-stage cultivator on the first deck of the warship saw that Jiang Han and the others didn't move and scolded, "What are you dawdling about? My ancestor invites you, why don't you quickly board the ship?"

"Grand Ancestor?"

Jiang Han and Jiang Lang exchanged a glance, and their hearts sank another notch.

A Mountain Sea Realm's Grand Ancestor was definitely a Heaven Human or Void Breaking Realm expert. Against such an expert, they would die no matter how they resisted.

Jiang Han's eyes turned, and she asked, "Can you still open that Heavenly Gate?"

If they could open the Heavenly Gate and let Jiang Bu Si come forward, perhaps there would still be a glimmer of hope.

Jiang Lang smiled mockingly and said, "Do you think my Grandpa Bu Si is a god? How could he interfere in matters here from hundreds of millions of miles away? Let's go!"

Jiang Lang put away the Ghost Flag, and the group's figures were revealed. Jiang Lang had already put away his divine runes, Jiang Han put away the battle knife, and put the little fox into the battle beast ring.

Faced with such a high-level expert, resisting or not resisting was the same.

Jiang Lang and Jiang Han led the group and soared into the air from the small boat. Zuo Yiyi, Qi Bing, Xiong Jingjing, and the others didn't dare to say a word, their eyes full of panic, and their hearts were extremely uneasy.

"Please come up, young friends!"

The old man's voice came from the second floor of the warship. A middle-aged man in the early stage of the Mountain Sea Realm waved his hand and said, "Everyone, my Grand Ancestor invites you."

The group followed the middle-aged man to the second floor. Jiang Lang showed a smile on his face and bowed and saluted, taking the lead, "Greetings, Lord!"

Jiang Han and the others followed suit and saluted. The old man turned his back to them and didn't look back, leisurely drinking tea with a teacup in his hand.

After he finished a sip of tea, he leisurely asked, "You young friends are quite brave, to dare to walk in the Chaotic Star Sea like this. Which sect or force do you come from?"

The group didn't dare to speak and looked at Jiang Lang, who cupped his hands and said, "Reporting, Lord, we come from the Flying Immortal Palace and are going to Star Sea City on the orders of the Palace Master. On the way back to the palace, the warship was attacked, and we had no choice but to return on our own."

"Flying Immortal Palace?"

The old man raised his white eyebrows slightly and pondered for a moment, saying, "Sun Wei, what's the name of that little girl from the Flying Immortal Palace? It seems like her surname is Lu? I remember she even came to Zhengyang Island before?"

Sun Wei, the middle-aged man who brought the group up, bowed and said, "Answering Grand Ancestor, her name is Lu Feixian. She is close to Fifth Martial Uncle and visited the Sect Leader and you at our Zhengyang Sect before."

Jiang Lang's eyes lit up. The Palace Master of the Flying Immortal Palace was indeed called Lu Feixian. Could it be that she had some connection with this mysterious expert?

"Oh!"

The old man nodded slightly and said, "Since she is from the Lu family, then just take them along the way. I think these few children look quite kind."

Sun Wei said in a low voice, "Yes, Grand Ancestor!"

The old man waved his hand and never looked back at the group.

Jiang Lang winked at the group and quickly bowed and saluted, saying, "Thank you, Lord!"

Zuo Yiyi, Qi Bing, Xiong Jingjing, Niu Meng all showed joy on their faces and were very happy. They originally thought that encountering a mysterious expert would cause big trouble.

They didn't expect that they actually had a connection with the Flying Immortal Palace, and they could hitch a ride on the warship.

This instant reversal of fortune made everyone very happy.

However, there was no smile on Jiang Han's face. She always felt that something was wrong.

Aren't ordinary experts supposed to be aloof and high above? Why would they take the initiative to pay attention to a few small martial artists like them? And so coincidentally, they just happened to have a connection with the Flying Immortal Palace?

"Everyone, follow me!"

Sun Wei gestured to the group, and the group followed him down below. Sun Wei led the group into a cabin.

He instructed, "You will live here. Usually, you are not allowed to walk around at will. If you make Grand Ancestor angry, don't blame us for not being reasonable."

"We are returning to Zhengyang Island and can only take you for most of the journey. You will disembark at Feilong Island. It is a ten-day journey from Feilong Island to Feixian Island."

The group nodded and thanked him repeatedly. The cabin door closed, and smiles appeared on Zuo Yiyi and Xiong Jingjing's faces, and they were very happy.

Jiang Han and Jiang Lang exchanged a glance, but both of them were worried and felt that it was too coincidental.

However, the expert from the Zhengyang Sect was so powerful. If they wanted to deal with them, they could slap them all to death with one palm. There was no need to play any tricks, and the two of them couldn't figure it out.

"Could it really be that coincidental?"

Jiang Han thought for a moment and didn't think about it anymore.

Since they were already here, they should just relax. Now, it was not good for them to leave. If they refused, angering this expert, the consequences would be unpredictable.
