Chapter 44 Disaster
The night was deep.
There was no moon.
The sky was pitch black.
One couldn't see their own fingers extended before them.
It was late at night, and the fleet continued to sail deeper into the sea.
But at this moment, ships from every direction surrounded them.
At least a thousand pirate ships.
There were simply too many.
Dragon Eye stood atop the Heavenly Dragon Pirate Ship, looking out at the distant fleet with a malicious grin, "This fleet is quite sizable, probably has more than twenty million people, right?"
The thousand pirate ships silently encircled their prey.
As they approached the fleet, the Nine Great Pirate Kings simultaneously issued the command to attack.
These pirate ships were all equipped with the most sophisticated "Spirit Stone Cannons."
Burning Spirit Stones, the attacks they fired were astonishingly powerful.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A thousand pirate ships.
Along with the ships of the Nine Great Pirate Kings.
All launched their attack.
The Spirit Stone Cannons ignited.
An overwhelming barrage of attacks thundered down like a destructive deluge.
It was almost apocalyptic.
"This is bad! Enemy attack!"
At this time, the fleet also realized something was wrong.
Defensive Restrictions on thirty-six colossal ships activated.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
A dense rain of cannonballs fell upon the giant ships.
The massive vessels were shaken.
They swayed violently.
"What's happening?"
Cultivators resting inside the cabins were startled awake.
Some ran onto the deck to look into the distance, their faces turning pale.
Pirate ships crowded the horizon, surrounding the area completely.
"All Nine Great Pirate Kings have arrived."
Some Cultivators recognized the pirate flags.
They were terrified beyond words.
Lin Feng's expression also suddenly changed; the Nine Great Pirate Kings, renowned and formidable.
How did they all end up in the East Sea?
Was it also because of the Divine Ruins?
Now surrounded by the Nine Great Pirate Kings.
This was troublesome.
...
"Break through, break through with all your might!"
The captains on the colossal ships shouted in panic.
Even though they often sailed the seas, this was the first time they had seen such a scene.
The Nine Great Pirate Kings!
They were like beings out of legend.
But today, they had come together.
The Spirit Stone Cannons on the thirty-six colossal ships were also raised.
They locked onto a direction.
And began a desperate breakout.
But ultimately, the thirty-six colossal ships were separated by the pirate ships.
One by one, the ships were besieged, their restrictions destroyed.
Then the ships were demolished.
Countless cultivators died a gruesome death.
The colossal ships started to crack apart.
Cultivators flew desperately towards the distance.
Attempting escape.
But the ones who flew into the sky met even worse fates.
A dense salvo of Spirit Stone Bombs flew out.
Blasting those cultivators in the midair to death on the spot.
...
There were also about a dozen colossal ships that managed to break through.
They fled towards the distance.
"Yaoruo, take a group of pirate ships and pursue them," commanded Wind God Fenng Shentian to a woman on the Demon God Ship.
"Yes, Father," the woman replied.
This woman was none other than Fenng Yaorao.
Years ago.
Lin Feng had encountered Fenng Yaorao.
At that time, Fenng Yaorao and Liuu Piaomiao were among those who besieged the Red Flame Lion Beast King.
Aiming to obtain the Xuanming Black Flame Fruit.
In the midst of the great battle, Liuu Piaomiao sustained injuries.
Fenng Yaorao wanted to kill Liuu Piaomiao and snatch the treasure.
Lin Feng rescued Liuu Piaomiao.
Then, he encountered Fenng Yaorao again.
Worried that Fenng Yaorao would perform a Soul Search on him,
Lin Feng had a stroke of genius in desperation.
He told Fenng Yaorao he would come to marry her within ten years.
Fenng Yaorao was both annoyed and shy.
Annoyed because someone with the mere Cultivation of the Martial Master Realm dared to confess his love to her,
Shy because after all, as a woman, hearing a man confess his love naturally made her feel bashful.
The annoyed and shy Fenng Yaorao did not attack Lin Feng, but quickly left.
...
In the blink of an eye, five years had passed.
Fenng Yaorao became even more enchanting.
What Lin Feng obviously did not expect was that Fenng Yaorao was actually the daughter of Fenng Shentian, the Pirate King of the East Sea.
Fenng Yaorao led more than a dozen pirate ships in pursuit of the giant vessel ahead.
Other Pirate Kings also dispatched pirate ships to join the chase.
Over a hundred pirate ships chased after the fleeing giant vessel.
A fierce battle ensued at sea.
The defense system of the giant ship was already in shambles.
"We must abandon ship and escape, otherwise, we will all die here,"
The captain's face was pale, and he quickly issued the order to abandon ship.
And disseminated the order.
Over five hundred thousand Cultivators escaped from the giant ship towards the distance.
"My lord, rest assured, your subordinate will ensure your safe departure,"
Zhan Junhua, pale with fear, did not forget to pledge his sincere loyalty to Lin Feng.
Lin Feng said, "Just take care of yourself, you don't need to worry about my safety."
Countless people fled outward.
"Spirit Stone Cannons, fire!"
On over a hundred pirate ships, numerous Spirit Stone Cannons bombarded the escaping Cultivators.
Cultivators died tragically one after another.
Fenng Yaorao also commanded her dozen pirate ships to attack these Cultivators.
Suddenly.
Fenng Yaorao's beautiful eyes slightly narrowed.
In the crowd, she spotted someone.
"Could Sister possibly be an Immortal? Even the monarch of a country and the National Guardian Ancestor are difficult to meet. Today, as your younger brother, I am fortunate enough to meet Sister—could it be the results of good deeds in my past life that I have such a great fate in this one?"
"Yes, I do want to marry Immortal Sister, I believe that I will definitely have the capability in the future,"
"The first time I saw Sister, I developed a sense of admiration; would Sister really kill someone who admires her? Even if Sister wants to kill me, I will not regret it, because what I just said is the truth—I must marry Immortal Sister."
"I bet that within ten years, I can cultivate to the Yin Yang Realm,"
"If I succeed, I will definitely come to ask for your hand in marriage."
...
The image of the youth in her mind became more and more vivid.
Even though five years had passed,
Fenng Yaorao had not forgotten many of the words the youth had said.
She, as the daughter of the East Sea Pirate King,
had always been a lofty person.
Who had ever dared to speak to her so boldly?
Lin Feng was the first.
That kid, not only did he dare express his love,
he even dared to say he would marry her.
This gave Fenng Yaorao a peculiar feeling.
After five years,
they met again.
Even though the five years had swiftly passed,
Fenng Yaorao still recognized Lin Feng at first glance.
"He really is working towards reaching the Yin Yang Realm,"
Fenng Yaorao's cheeks felt hot.
In the future, if he truly came to propose, what should she do?
Fenng Yaorao was in turmoil.
"Stop, stop right now!"
Fenng Yaorao hurriedly issued the command.
Though the members of the Demon God Pirate Group did not know why the Young Master ordered the attack to halt, they did not dare to hesitate and quickly stopped.
"Quick, break out!"
Naturally, the Cultivators who were heavily surrounded saw the gap and surged frantically towards it.
"My lord, we are saved,"
Zhan Junhua was so excited that he was trembling all over.
Lin Feng was speechless. The guy had actually been scared to this point; he really was bringing shame to the Spirit Array Master Guild.
He rushed out with the crowd.
Lin Feng was puzzled as to why the pirate ships had suddenly stopped their attack.
He looked in the direction of the pirate ships.
From a distance, he vaguely saw an extraordinarily bewitching woman.
But being too far away, Lin Feng was unable to see her face clearly.
