Chapter 148: Encountering Zhao Yuanjiao Again
The disciples quickly took down the ordinary sea serpents. Ye Dafu and his group, fighting six on one, defeated the Ascension-realm sea serpent as well.
"Die!" Ye Dafu howled. He thrust his blade through the serpent's neck, causing it to screech in pain.
"Die!" the other disciples howled. Five combined sword slashes killed the Ascension-realm sea serpent instantly.
"Third Uncle, I'll treat you to some Ascension-realm meat!" Ye Dafu happily dragged his spoils back onto the ship.
"Dafu, are you alright...?" Ye Sanshui couldn't help but worry about his nephew.
Ye Dafu had bite marks all over his body, which was swelling up in black and purple. He looked as though he might keel over at any moment.
"It does hurt a little. This Ascension-realm sea serpent's venom is even stronger than the others', but I'm not afraid of poison. I'll be just fine in a few days. Third Uncle, I'm growing stronger! I can even kill Ascension-realm spirits now!" Ye Dafu crowed.
"Stronger? You're the only one who ended up being bitten! Why did you go for its head rather than its tail?" Ye Sanshui scolded his nephew.
The five Ascension-realm disciples who had attacked the Ascension-realm sea serpent alongside Ye Sanshui felt a bout of shame. It was because Ye Dashui had taken all the bites that they were perfectly fine.
"Senior Brother Nanfeng wanted me to lead the group. Of course I had to fight from the front! Don't worry, I'm just fine." Ye Dafu patted himself on the chest.
Xiao Nanfeng watched the exchange with some interest. No wonder Ye Dafu was able to accrue a group of lackeys despite his obvious flaws! He never backed down and led from the front.
"Ye Dafu, I have an antidote you can have." Xiao Nanfeng handed him a pill he had retrieved from Marquis Wu.
"It's alright. I'll be back to normal in just a few days, Young—Senior Brother!" Ye Dafu replied in excitement.
Ever since he learned of Xiao Nanfeng's true identity, Ye Dafu had been far more courteous to him than before. He had been wanting to deepen his relationship with Xiao Nanfeng, and he was overjoyed that Xiao Nanfeng would suddenly make him an overture.
"Better to recover sooner," Xiao Nanfeng replied, handing the bottle to Ye Dafu.
"Accept the gift from your senior," Ye Sanshui whispered, nudging him.
"Then I'll accept with gratitude!" Ye Dafu shouted. He swallowed the pill in the bottle in one gulp. "Oh, it tastes good!"
"Steer the ship away for now," Xiao Nanfeng commanded.
"Despite the distress flares, Senior Brother?" a disciple asked.
"The ship's too large and visible a target. We'll hide it away first."
"Understood!" the disciples replied.
The ship sailed to a nearby island where it docked. The disciples stood on the island as they looked toward the distress flares in the distance.
"Senior Brother, is it necessary for us to hide this far away?" Ye Sanshui asked curiously.
"It is. There are many serpents in this stretch of the sea, and the ones we encountered were only a small fraction of their number," Xiao Nanfeng warned. He was able to sense everything clearly with his spiritual power.
"What?!" everyone cried out.
"Ascension-realm disciples, please accompany me to have a look at the scene. Ye Sanshui, stay on this island and prepare to receive us," Xiao Nanfeng instructed.
"Senior Brother, I'd like to go with you," Ye Sanshui volunteered, worried about the danger.
"Better if you're here to guard the Immortal's Destruction on my behalf," Xiao Nanfeng replied.
"Kill them!"
The Taiqing disciples struck at the gathered serpents, ignoring their wounded bodies.
Just then, Zhao Yuanjiao's eyes opened wide as he drew his sword. A huge sword slash flew toward the golden-orb serpent, sending it flying.
"You think to resist despite the fact that you're at your wit's end? Die!" The other golden serpent leapt toward Zhao Yuanjiao, sending him flying. He fell back again and again in the two-on-one fight.
"Who sent you? How did you know what route we would take? Why are you attacking us?!" Zhao Yuanjiao howled as he fought.
"Do you think we'd tell you? Die!" one golden serpent replied.
Zhao Yuanjiao fought the two serpents at significant risk to his life.
"Save us, Elder!" The Taiqing disciples in the valley were having a hard time resisting the serpents' incursion as well.
Thousands of serpents were swarming toward them. Even if there were only a few dozen Ascension-realm ones, they were unable to defend against the overwhelming force. It looked as though everyone was about to perish to the serpents.
"Charge!" Xiao Nanfeng commanded.
Xiao Nanfeng and Zhao Yuanjiao harbored bad blood, but he was still a disciple of Elder Ku. Everyone present bore witness; he had no choice but to do what he could. How would he face his master otherwise?
"Yes, Senior Brother!" The disciples charged down the valley.
Xiao Nanfeng held the divine undying blade in his hand. He slashed forward, instantly killing a wide swathe of sea serpents and cutting apart the two Ascension-realm ones as well.
"What?!" The disciples stared at Xiao Nanfeng in shock, none having imagined that he was such a strong combatant.
"Is that Nanfeng?" Cries came from within the valley.
As Xiao Nanfeng swung his blade once again, another huge swathe of sea serpents was wiped out.
Noticing the threat posed by the newcomer, the sea serpents quickly changed their target and surged toward him.
Xiao Nanfeng snorted.
Roiling flame burst forth from Xiao Nanfeng's body, surrounding him like a glowing sun and burning the Immanence-realm sea serpents to a crisp. The Ascension-realm ones blocked the majority of the flame, but they too were forced back—just in time to be struck by Xiao Nanfeng's divine undying blade.
Xiao Nanfeng was a juggernaut. Where he roamed, the sea serpents fell. Against these serpents, he seemed all but invincible.
The Taiqing disciples trapped within the valley stared out in surprise.
"That's Nanfeng?"
"I managed to seize and take him down half a year ago. How did he suddenly grow so strong?"
"Just what happened in the intervening six months?!"
The disciples all cried out in surprise.
Ye Dafu and the others charged forward behind Xiao Nanfeng, but there was nothing for them to do but to kill the stragglers that Xiao Nanfeng hadn't managed to. It was surprisingly relaxing.
"No wonder you were able to establish a relationship with the strong within the hidden realm. I didn't know you were this strong, Senior Brother!"
"Our senior brother is amazing!"
Ye Dafu and his lackeys were gobsmacked.
Ye Dafu stared open-mouthed at the carnage Xiao Nanfeng had unleashed. "Father once told me that, if I were to meet Marquis Xiao and his family, that I would be beaten to death for showing any disrespect. Was Father trying to protect, rather than to scare me? I was crazy!"
