Chapter 167 - 165: This Road is Blocked_1
Mo Shi commanded two warships, tearing across the sea’s surface. Each warship carried ten thousand elite Disciples of the Qunxian Sect, who released Spiritual Energy to form a protective shield around the vessels. The Sea Emperor and Wanli Hai were fixated on the warships.
"Yue Fei, your doom is certain this time!" Mo Shi declared. He stood at the bow, his war sword drawn. Wrapped in an aura of death, he watched the water nervously. Once they crossed this sea area and eliminated the dangers, the army could launch its attack.
He was no match for Yue Fei! But he believed the Sect Master would definitely avenge him! So, even though he knew this sea area was fraught with danger, he still undertook the mission.
"Catapults, ready!"
Atop the city wall, Zhao Yun waved his hand. Soldiers began to load the catapults with flaming stones. On his command, a terrifying attack would be unleashed.
Soon, the two warships led by Mo Shi entered the minefield. Unextinguished fires still raged on the sea’s surface, leaping about like will-o’-the-wisps.
The Qunxian Sect Disciples aboard tensed and held their breath, their hearts in their throats.
Finally, the warships entered the minefield. There were no explosions as expected; everything seemed exceedingly calm.
"Order the entire army to attack!" Mo Shi breathed a sigh of relief. He pointed his Longsword forward, and endless Sword Qi flickered in the Void, like a surging tide.
"Order the entire army to attack!" Wanli Hai commanded decisively. The remaining twenty-eight warships surged forward, entering the minefield and heading straight for Covering Sea City.
"Quickly surface! We can’t let the Qunxian Sect get there first!" the Sea Emperor ordered, growing anxious.
Covering Sea City’s location was ideal. Outside the city lay a deep-water area where warships could dock, and it also provided a place for the Sea Clan to recuperate. It served an extremely important function for both the Qunxian Sect and the Sea Clan. Although the Sea Clan could live on land, they were undoubtedly more comfortable in the sea. As for Covering Sea City, the Sea Clan was determined to take it.
