Chapter 98 - 18 Dan Demon Realm
The day after the Silver Scorpion Mercenary Group attacked, Old Teluo commanded his men to burn down the reeds by the lakeside that blocked their view.
Under the fierce flames, the reeds were destroyed, and the view across the lake became much clearer, preventing further ambushes. However, it also allowed the mercenaries to clearly see the nearby Dan Demon Tomb.
The thick smoke drifted close to the blood mist and seemed to meet resistance, unable to advance any further.
The protective array on the Fire Dragon Sail was repaired, and the black-clad person who suddenly appeared did not show up again.
From a few captives of the Blue Crystal Mercenary Group, Yue Jinghua and others learned that the Silver Scorpion Mercenary Group and the Blue Crystal Mercenary Group still had elite units ready to ambush Ni Qianjun at the opportune moment.
Upon hearing this news, Feng Buhui couldn’t stay put. He wanted to leave the ship to search for Ni Qianjun and the others, but Old Teluo wouldn’t allow it. He also remembered what Ni Qianjun had said before leaving: if they hadn’t returned in three days, they should immediately set sail and leave.
Time, like the waters of the lake, seemed calm yet still flowed away. On the last night before the Fire Dragon Sail was to set off to return, there was still no word from Ni Qianjun and the others.
Another cold and serene night passed, a silhouette crossed the deck, and a skin raft was quickly lowered into the water.
Feng Buhui jumped onto the skin raft, causing a ripple on the water. On the other side of the raft, it gently rocked, and at the other end of the ship, a figure stood adrift.
