Chapter 482: I am Fang Zhengzhi
Translator: Sparrow TranslationsEditor: Sparrow Translations
It wasn't that Meng Yushu wasn't agile enough... however, when the huge yacht came crashing into his boat, there was no way he could maintain his balance.
Because...
His craft was simply too small.
The yacht crashed into his craft and split it in two. His craft was instantly swallowed by the water, almost like a watermelon smashed by a punch.
All of the ladies and talents watching in admiration were stunned. They simply couldn't react in time to Meng Yushu crashing into the water.
”He capsized?”
”Oh, no, it was a crash!”
Even Meng Yushu couldn't react in time to this. Was this some act of piracy?!
Meng Yushu wanted to tell the perpetrators to stop.
After all, his boat was rather valuable despite its size. He wasn't going to let them go without getting compensated. Then, a faint voice rang out.
”Meng Yushu? This name is familiar... where have I heard it before?”
Then...
There was nothing else...
The yacht showed no signs of stopping as it continued to steam ahead, almost as if the people on board didn't see Meng Yushu nor the boat they just crashed into.
However, Meng Yushu knew that...
He knew for a fact that they must have seen him! Else, they would not have found his name familiar.
Hang on!
That sounded like a male voice!
There's a man on the yacht?
”Stop right there! I am the eldest son of the Meng Family! How dare you crash into me and try to run! You can forget about leaving Huai An County!” Meng Yushu hollered. He could tolerate being rammed by a lady, but definitely not by a man.
Furthermore, he had been embarrassed in front of a group of people.
During this time, Meng Yushu's abilities had improved greatly.
When he participated in the Dao Examinations, he was merely in the Divine Seal State. But now, he was already in the Star Conglomerate State.
Furthermore, he had topped the Huai An County combat examinations.
He could not walk on water, but he could manipulate the wind to surf the waves.
The yacht was quick, but it was not quicker than Meng Yushu.
He jumped...
Using a piece of his shattered boat as a platform, he leapt into the air. Then, he took a step in the air and grabbed onto the tail end of the yacht.
Even though he didn't manage to jump onto the deck, simply being able to grab the end of the yacht was enough to elicit cheers and screams from the ladies.
”Wa, Young Master Meng is powerful!”
”No wonder he topped the Huai An County combat examinations!”
”Is this the power of the Star Conglomerate State?”
The screams of admiration from the ladies were accompanied by the jealousy of the candidates. However, none of them had the abilities or money that Meng Yushu had.
At the stern...
Meng Yushu held onto a plank of wood and grit his teeth.
He was not in a good position. Even though he had managed to get a hold on a plank of wood, the yacht was travelling too fast. He ended up dangling in the air.
However, he wanted to give the people on this boat a piece of his mind.
He wasn't prepared to take this lying down. No matter how hard it would be, he would board this craft! If he fell into the water now, his reputation would be ruined!
He bit his lip.
”Up!” Meng Yushu bellowed as he pushed himself onto the deck with all the power he had in his arms.
Everyone on the shore cheered.
Meng Yushu was happy about this.
However, his expression froze almost immediately after. He saw a sword... a sword which radiated an icy aura...
The sword was lowered at his throat.
Silent and deadly...
He felt a chill down his spine.
He knew for a fact that there was no sword at his throat even before he had boarded the ship.
The only explanation was that at the moment he flipped onto the deck, the sword had been lowered at his throat. The accuracy of his attacker was impeccable.
As for the person wielding the sword...
Meng Yushu didn't recognize that person, nor could he see the appearance of that person.
That person wore a black cloak and a black veil. The veil extended to the person's neck.
A veiled sword bearer?
A female veiled sword bearer?
Meng Yushu couldn't see his opponent clearly, but he could tell that this was a lady by her black dress. This lady had a pretty good figure too.
”I am the eldest son of the Meng...” Meng Yushu was about to announce his identity when he felt pain at his throat. He shut up instantly.
He could feel the sharp tip of the sword and the trickle of blood flowing down his neck.
Was he going to be killed?
This was Huai An County! There were countless witnesses. Who had the audacity to kill with so many eyes on them?
Were these pirates?
But this was a river! Why would there be pirates on a river?? That didn't make sense!
”Do we have a problem?” The lady's voice was bone-chilling.
”No... no problem at all...” Meng Yushu wanted them to compensate him. But right now, all he cared about was staying alive.
This was not the time to talk about money.
Naturally, he would say that there wasn't a problem.
”Get off!” The lady's voice rang out.
”Ah? Off... okay, I'll go down now!” Meng Yushu was stunned, but he recovered quickly and leapt off the ship.
Was it embarrassing?
Definitely!
However, it was a small price to pay in exchange for his life.
Meng Yushu looked at the shore.
Countless eyes were staring at him. They had all seen the confrontation on the boat.
Everyone was stunned.
However, they did understand the situation that Meng Yushu was in.
Meng Yushu looked away from the shore and into the sky. He was looking forward to a fun day! He wanted to enjoy himself and bask in the atmosphere of spring.
Yet...
He was about to be sent into the water again...
Meng Yushu was embarrassed. However, at that moment, a male voice rang out. It was not as calm as before. This voice seemed like he had just had a revelation.
”I remember now, Meng Yushu! It's him!”
