Chapter 452: Rogue senior apprentice brother (1/2)

In the early morning when dawn had just arrived, the sea dragon boat was quietly docked at one nameless deserted island.

Other than the people in guard duty, all others were resting and there were only the sounds of waves.

In one white tent, Zhu Sijia was sitting cross-legged on the ground. Her complexion was somewhat wan and sallow. She was neither able to fall asleep nor cultivate at ease throughout the night.

From the time when Ye Chuan had left to scout the situation, almost a night had passed, and Old demon of Mount Yin and others who had left with him had already returned, bringing back all kinds of information, only Ye Chuan’s group was tardy, moreover, they had disappeared without any information. This made everyone worried.

“Sect ancestors, please protect Big Senior Apprentice Brother, let him return safely!”

Zhu Sijia ignited sandalwood and prayed facing towards the direction of faraway Cloud Mist Sect.

As the only granddaughter of Great Elder Zhu Guohong, she was leisurely and carefree from her childhood. She could have whatever she wished and everyone in the sect respected her. In those years, she was free and unfettered without any worries, she would laugh merrily or curse angrily to her heart’s content. But, since Big Senior Apprentice Brother Ye Chuan returned from mountains, her circumstance had slowly changed. In the beginning, she was so angry that she wanted to beat Ye Chuan to half-dead state, but slowly, at an unknown time, the shadow of Ye Chuan was engraved in her heart. In addition, she would get angry when she see Ye Chuan, but get worried when she couldn’t see him.

Mingled love and hate, persistently worrying in heart, was this love?

Zhu Sijia muttered to herself, and thinking about the time she had spent together with Ye Chuan, sometimes, she got angry and sometimes, she felt sweet, then became anxious and worried.

According to the information brought by Old Demon of Mount Yin and others, the army under Qing Tianhou was under the command of his very trusted subordinate Lord Qi, and now, the army was stationed at Bellowing Waves Island that was located just several hundred li away. In addition, that island was also close to the entrance of Lost City, the holy land of Sea Demon Clan. Furthermore, at this moment, the area within the radius of several hundred li was under the strict blockade of Qing Tianhou’s troops which claimed to have full 200,000 soldiers. Although Ye Chuan was courageous and also cunning, the number of enemies was big, it was bad to carelessly expose their whereabouts.

Zhu Sijia took out her flying sword and repeatedly wiped its blade while worrying about Ye Chuan in her heart.

Since there was no trace and news of Ye Chuan, she naturally was somewhat unable to control herself. She thought to personally lead a squad to go search for Ye Chuan, but thinking about the consequences if they were noticed by the enemy, she had no choice but to reconsider. Without Ye Chuan, only she could command numerous disciples of Cloud Mist Sect.

“Report……”

An on duty disciple of Cloud Mist Sect suddenly flew over and standing outside the tent, he bowed and said, “Senior Apprentice sister Jiajia, bad news, an armored warship is heading towards this deserted island!”

“What?”

Zhu Sijia stood up and hastily rushed out, “Go, led me there.”

“Yes!”

The guard disciple of Cloud Mist Sect flew in the front and Zhu Sijia followed after him, quickly arriving at the coast.

And after climbing on a tall rock, Zhu Sijia also saw an armored warship was heading straight towards this deserted island. From this distance, they could see soldiers with dazzling swords standing on the deck of that armored warship. If there was a tail-wind, then it might be possible that this armored warship had accidentally arrived here when patrolling, but since it was sailing so rapidly against the wind, it had clearly come prepared. Either that assassin Rain Demon had brought this armored warship as reinforcement after running away or their whereabouts was exposed when Old Demon of Mount Yin and others went out to gather intelligence, attracting this huge monster.

“Everyone, quickly board on the boat, we are leaving!”

The complexion of Zhu Sijia was stretched taut as she ordered.

A horn sound resounded and the disciples of Cloud Mist Sect along with warriors of Sea Demon Clan rushed out from their tent in succession, but they had no time to pack up their things, they just hastily boarded the sea dragon boat. Sea Demon Patriarch personally activated the magic formation of the sea dragon boat, wanting to sail away before this armored warship arrived here.
