Chapter 465: Chapter 202: Blood Stains the Great River,
Falling like Rain (Seeking Monthly Tickets)_2
Some powerful rogue cultivators took advantage of others being attacked and forcibly flew towards the banks of the river.
Upon landing, they watched the scene unfolding before them in fright.
Cultivators were falling like rain.
The river was churning with blood.
Those on their makeshift bamboo rafts suffered an even worse fate!
The massive swarm of silver shuttle fish surrounded them immediately, not even giving them a chance to escape.
“Where did such a large swarm of silver shuttle fish come from?”
It was Nangong Jin’s voice.
Luo Chen’s brows furrowed as he concentrated his spirit consciousness towards the big ship in the center.
A conversation between Foundation Establishment True Cultivators began.
“To my knowledge, the Lancang River does not have such a large school of silver shuttle fish, does it?” it was still Nangong Jin.
In response to his urgent query.
Wang Haichao calmly said, “Under normal circumstances, no. But this time, we have as many as tens of thousands of cultivators traveling together.”
“There is no demon beast that could resist such a sumptuous blood meal, especially when the meal is rich in spirit qi.”
Since when do cultivators of the Human Clan become a measure for beasts with their enriched spirit qi blood meals?
Luo Chen remained rather silent.
Nangong Jin anxiously said, “My Nangong family has few cultivators. If it goes on like this, we cannot protect those mortals. I have to act!”
“Friend, you can take action, but you must not use power exceeding that of the completed Qi Refinement Stage.”
“Huh?”
The questioning voice came from Li Yixian.
Wang Haichao coldly said: “For such a large group of silver shuttle fish, there must be a Second Order Silver Shuttle Fish King. This place is in the middle of the river. While it may not defeat us, it would have no problem tearing these vessels to shreds.”
“On the contrary, if we four do not make a hasty move, it will naturally be more cautious.”
Indeed, that’s the logic.
But…
Looking around, watching the countless rogue cultivators falling into the Lancang River like rain, even those with the most hardened Foundation Establishment True Cultivators felt somewhat unwilling.
Li Yixian hoarsely said, “Aren’t we going to save these rogue cultivators?” “Why should we save them?” Wang Haichao immediately counter-questioned. Without waiting for Li Yixian to answer, he scoffed, “These rogue cultivators are merely fish food. Furthermore, their numbers are just too great, and they unknowingly emit power fluctuations in the open, which sooner or later, will attract Third Order Demon Beasts.”
“At that time, Friend Li, will you withstand the power of the Beast King?”
Li Yixian fell silent.
Luo Chen’s brows raised, seeing Wang Haichao’s ruthlessness.
The so-called not moving against the Second Order Silver Shuttle Fish King by the four of them, was only an excuse.
He mainly wanted to lighten the burden, didn’t he!
“I thinknone of you are saints, right?”
Wang Haichao’s voice gradually faded away.
Li Yixian gave a wry smile and did not say anything else.
Luo Chen blinked his eyes and then withdrew his spirit consciousness.
Naturally, he wasn’t a great benevolent person either.
These rogue cultivators didn’t pay for a passage, they followed along and naturally had to bear the corresponding risk.
To ensure the safety of the subsequent journey, it was necessary to reduce the risk caused by the power fluctuations of these rogue cultivators. Thê sourc𝗲 of this conte/nt n/o/v/(𝒆l)bi((n))
Luo Chen did not have the power to protect these rogue cultivators.
Being able to protect the people on his ship was enough.
When the three Foundation Establishments did not make a move and Nangong Jin only protected the people on his boat.
The assault of the silver shuttle fish lasted for a long time.
This stretch of the river was completely dyed red with fresh blood.
On both banks, the surviving rogue cultivators looked on in horror, their fear lingering.
It wasn’t until the ship fleet had sailed out of this area with great difficulty that it all ended.
Luo Chen looked back at the bloody stretch of the river, remaining silent.
Countless fish leaping, bones churning underneath.
Beneath the waves, this journey was tainted with a deep hue of blood.
“If I hadn’t achieved Foundation Establishment and stayed at the Qi Refinement Stage, and had fled into the depths of the marshes, would I have ended up like this?”
Asking himself, Luo Chen had no confidence.
All the means he had during the Qi Refinement Stage now seemed ridiculous.
The Lancang River was considered relatively safe.
Cultivators are active on it all year round.
But the Xiao Yue Mountain Range was truly remote.
In an outlying area like Changyin Mountain, there were plenty of Second Order Demon Wolves.
If he had tried to cross the mountains on a whim, he probably would have met a more miserable end than these rogue cultivators.
As Luo Chen reflected, he suddenly sensed something.
He turned his head and saw the female cultivator Li Yixian on the ship ahead, silently watching him against the blood-stained wind.
As Luo Chen returned her gaze, she nodded at him.
Luo Chen slightly nodded in response.
Without any verbal communication, just eye contact, they reached a silent agreement.
Wang Haichao is not trustworthy!
Just as he could sacrifice these rogue cultivators today, he might abandon his allies tomorrow.
The so-called Four-Family Alliance was just a talk.
They didn’t swear a vow of the Great Dao Path!
Compared to the relatively weaker Nangong Family, the Luo Tian Creed and the Li Family, who have preserved their full strength, undoubtedly share the same premise of advancing and retreating together.
Li Yixian believed that Luo Chen would give her this respect.
In the cabin.
Li Ao respectfully welcomed Li Yixian inside.
“Aunt, what did Senior Dan Chenzi say?”
Li Yixian cast a Sound Isolation Technique around the cabin.
She said softly, “He didn’t say anything, but he understood my meaning.”
Li Ao anxiously said, “Understanding is one thing, but whether he is willing to advance and retreat with our Li Family is another matter. Aunt, you…”
“Little Ao, you can’t be like this.”
“Huh?”
Li Yixian looked at him with empathy, “You’re too impatient. How can you lead the Li Family to prosperity this way?”
Li Ao was puzzled, feeling that all his thoughts and considerations were for the family.
