Chapter 733: Finally at Bat Island
Chapter 733: Finally at Bat Island
Even after leaving Yuan Suoyun's flagship, Hua Zhenzhen couldn't stop giggling.
When they returned to their own flagship, they found that Chu Liuxiang and the others were also there.
"You seem so happy. Did Master Kumei tell you some news?" Hu Tiehua asked, turning back.
Hua Zhenzhen struggled to suppress her laughter and shook her head, "No."
"Then why are you laughing?" Hu Tiehua was puzzled. "Could it be that your young master has agreed to warm your bed?"
With the recent situation being so complex, neither Hu Tiehua nor Chu Liuxiang's group were aware of Hua Zhenzhen's identity. Li Yuhuan and the others, unaware that they didn't know this information, hadn't informed them either.
So when Li Yuhuan and the others saw Hu Tiehua's bold inquiry to Hua Zhenzhen, they couldn't help but glance at him, thinking that Hu Tiehua and Jin Banhua's relationship must be very close, as he was so quick to assist his brother.
Hearing this, Hua Zhenzhen's face turned red with embarrassment, and she glared at Hu Tiehua, "You should worry about how you're going to face Jin and Gao!"
As soon as she said this, Hu Tiehua's smile vanished, and he became worried, "What's wrong with them, and why should I worry..."
Chu Liuxiang and Zhang San burst into laughter.
After their laughter subsided, Chu Liuxiang asked, "Brother Jin, did you find anything?"
Jin Banhua countered, "Didn't you have any guesses?"
Chu Liuxiang nodded and then shook his head, "Without evidence, I can't just make random accusations."
The others looked at Chu Liuxiang with admiration in their eyes, for in this world, there were few people as principled as him.
Hu Tiehua looked to his left and then to his right, frustrated, "What do you all know? Can't you just speak plainly?"
Yan Dianhong looked at Hu Tiehua, feeling a sense of superiority, and she raised a disdainful smile, "Rest assured, when it's time for you to know, you'll naturally find out."
Hu Tiehua: ???
...
In the time that followed, nothing unexpected happened.
However...
"The sky is overcast, with dark clouds gathering. There will be wind and rain tonight," Li Yuhuan said. "Why did Bat Island choose such a day?"
Qu Wurong spoke in a soft voice, "Perhaps it's because on a day like this, some people can disappear without raising suspicions."
Everyone fell silent.
Under the gloomy sky, their spirits couldn't help but sink.
They had just finished dinner, and the sky was already almost completely dark. Their ship was sailing alongside Yuan Suoyun's flagship, guided only by the lights from the other ship in the darkness.
The howling wind roared, accompanied by the surging waves, causing both ships to sway more and more violently.
"Wow! The sky is starless and moonless, and it's pitch dark. If it weren't for the fact that the main person is right next to us, I would have thought this was a trap he set up on purpose," Li Yuhuan exclaimed.
Ying Wanli emerged from the cabin, "I just asked the sailors, and they said the wind and rain aren't too strong, and there won't be any danger."
Li Yuhuan nodded, "Then..."
As he spoke, the entire flagship suddenly shook violently, emitting two loud booms.
Indeed, there were two loud booms, because the other boom came from Yuan Suoyun's flagship, which had also encountered an accident.
Both ships almost instantly came to a halt, their sterns rising halfway before slamming back down. The entire cabin interior was in disarray, and many people were thrown out, hitting their faces and bodies and causing bruises.
"What happened?" Everyone rushed onto the deck.
"I don't know!" Li Yuhuan shouted.
Just then, a sailor rushed onto the deck in a panic, "The ship has run aground, and the bottom is already leaking!"
Everyone's faces changed, and they all knew the consequences of a leaking ship in the vast sea.
"Is this Yuan Suoyun's scheme?" Liu Wumei asked immediately.
"His ship has also run aground," Qu Wurong replied.
"Hmm?"
Everyone exchanged glances. During the day, they had speculated that Yuan Suoyun might be the lord of Bat Island, and now his flagship had run aground that very night?
Could it be that he didn't expect to encounter a storm and ended up in a similar predicament?
If the Bat Island Lord died in a shipwreck, that would truly be a joke.
At that moment, Chu Liuxiang had already flown over to their ship, "Are you all alright?"
"We're fine," Yan Dianhong replied. "How about you?"
"We're fine too," Zhang San flew over as well, jesting, "Hu Tiehua even encountered some good fortune!"
No one asked, and Zhang San didn't continue, because Hu Tiehua had already arrived.
By his side, Jin Lingzhi was on his left and Gao Yanan on his right.
Yan Dianhong couldn't help but laugh, "It seems he did encounter some good fortune, but he doesn't seem too happy about it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he too suppressed his smile, for Yuan Suoyun had arrived.
"It's great that everyone is safe," Yuan Suoyun said, "The helmsman who guided our journey is missing, and I don't know why he steered us off course."
The group fell silent.
"Regardless, let's leave the ship first," Chu Liuxiang said, "The ship has run aground and is leaking; it might not hold for much longer."
"The southeast waters are deep, and with reefs, there might be an island nearby," Liu Wumei nodded.
"Mrs. Li is right," Yuan Suoyun smiled, "In that case, I'll scout ahead for everyone."
Chu Liuxiang said, "I'll come with you."
Yuan Suoyun shook his head, "Thank you, Commander Xiang, for your kindness, but I'd like you to stay and help everyone. This mishap is my responsibility, so let me make amends."
As his words fell, Yuan Suoyun's sleeves fluttered, and with a swift movement, he leaped, creating a gust of wind, disappearing into the distance like a bat in the night, leaving behind a distant voice.
"Commander Xiang's light body skills are renowned throughout the world, and normally I wouldn't dare compete, but tonight, with no stars or moon, what a blind man can see, those with eyes might not."
As Yuan Suoyun vanished, the Kumei Master appeared beside Gao Yanan, his expressionless face giving no hint of his emotions.
On the other side, Bai Lie also arrived on the deck, "Ding Feng was swept away by the waves."
"What happened?" Ying Wanli asked.
"The ship's side ruptured and started leaking right where Ding Feng's cabin was. The waves rushed in, and he was tied up and acupointed, so he was directly swept away by the waves," Bai Lie explained.
Everyone exchanged glances, and Jin Banhua sighed, "What an arbitrary death!"
Then, the group helped the sailors salvage what they could, carrying everything out of the large ship and onto the reef.
In a moment, a gust of wind blew by, and Yuan Suoyun reappeared before everyone.
"Did you find anything, Master Yuan?" Hu Tiehua asked eagerly.
"Land," Yuan Suoyun replied, "Not only land but also people, many people!"
The group was startled, and Hu Tiehua asked, "What people?"
"I don't know, I didn't ask," Yuan Suoyun shook his head, "But it doesn't matter, because they're already on their way here."
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of people appeared on the nearby reef.
In the pitch-black night, amidst the howling wind, they stepped onto the chaotic reef with remarkable lightness, speed, and stability, all displaying extraordinary light body skills.
"Are you from the Guan Zhong Yuan Family's flagship?" The leader suddenly asked, and to everyone's surprise, it was a woman's voice.
Yuan Suoyun nodded, "I am indeed Yuan Suoyun. May I ask who you are..."
The person bowed, "Master Yuan, after traveling through countless trials, you've finally arrived. Please forgive us for our late greeting."
Yuan Suoyun's expression changed as he asked, "Is this Bat Island?"
"Indeed!" The person took a step forward, and only then did everyone see her in black attire, with a black veil covering her face, appearing and disappearing in the night like a phantom between reality and illusion.
