Chapter 88: On the Hunt (Part Two)
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Chu Lingjun looked at the two people being swallowed by the crocodile in the river, his eyes devoid of any emotion.
It was obvious that the Wild Wave Company and the divine blood man who attacked the ship were in cahoots.
When the ship sank, the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce gave up on salvaging it. They assume that the goods in the cargo hold had all been damaged by the water.
However, the Wild Wave Company knew that the goods were not damaged. In other words, the Wild Wave Company knew that Wu Daonan had made the goods waterproof. Even if they were submerged in water for a month or two, they would be fine.
How did the Wild Wave Company know these details?
There must have been a spy on the ship!
Not only did the Wild Wave Company rob the boat on the Lianjiang River, but they also colluded with the divine blood warriors. They all deserved to die.
Of course, Chu Lingjun had another selfish motive. He wanted to keep the remaining 190 Sun Fruits for himself.
How could he guarantee that he would get the 190 Sun Fruits without anyone knowing?
It was very simple. He just had to kill everyone who knew about it!
Once the Wild Wave Company opens the cargo hold door and finds no Sun Fruit, there is a chance of him getting caught.
Based on the fresh claw marks on the shipwreck, it would be easy to deduce that a large wild beast came into play.
Piecing the information together and assuming that it was his electric eel clone would not be that hard.
The other most important reason was that Chu Lingjun had obtained the Astral Helmet. His spiritual power had soared, and the power of the lightning he released could reach the Third Rank!
The strength of the electric eel clone and Chu Lingjun was shared, which also meant that the power of the electric eel clone had temporarily increased to Level Three!
Now that Gao Yong and the others were fighting the River-Turning Rat, Chu Lingjun felt that there was still a chance of survival!
Of course, if he couldn’t kill them, he wouldn’t lose out on anything.
However, he had to be very careful when selling the Sun Fruits later on. Selling all 190 Sun Fruits might make him an easy target.
This was also the reason why Chu Lingjun had ordered the electric eel clone to kill the two people keeping watch. He wanted to see if there was a chance to make a move later and wait for an opportunity to strike!
Under the shore, an intense battle was taking place.
Gao Yong’s feet surged with strength as he stepped on the riding waves. With a mighty aura in his hands, he rushed toward the strongest River-Turning Rat!
When a martial artist reached Rank Two and cultivated true qi, his true qi would wrap around his feet, allowing him to leap over roofs and walk on walls. He could even climb up branches agilely, and walk on the waves on the river. Gao Yong struck out with his palm, and the river water around him was immediately mobilized. It condensed into two monstrous waves that were more than ten meters tall and crashed toward the River-Turning Rat!
Facing Gao Yong’s attack, the light golden-furred River-Turning Rat let out a sharp cry!
It flipped over the water’s surface as if it was walking on flat ground and rushed towards Gao Yong.
Wherever the River-Turning Rat went, the roaring waves were flattened one by one. One second, it was violent, and the next second, it was calm. The changes were everlasting!
The River-Turning Rat’s ability to control water was amazing!
The pale golden figure rushed towards Gao Yong and grabbed on anything it could!
Although the claw did not trigger any physical phenomenon, in Gao Yong’s mind, he felt an intense piercing pain coming from all over his body, as if countless golden needles were piercing his body!
This was the danger warning of a Rank Three martial artist!
Gao Yong was greatly shocked, and two Wild Wave Palms struck out!
The claw and palm collided, resulting in a loud explosion!
With the two of them at the center, a visible shock wave erupted.
The water under their feet suddenly sank, then turned into a water pillar and exploded into the sky!
In the huge explosion, the River-Turning Rat flew back several meters and crashed onto the ground.
However, Gao Yong flew back more than ten meters before he barely managed to stop his body on the river’s surface!
He had just steadied his body when he spat out a mouthful of blood!
“D*mn! They’re not called one of the Four Tyrants for nothing!!”
Under the riverbed, Chu Lingjun used the Electric Field to witness the battle. He couldn’t help but click his tongue.
Gao Yong and the River-Turning Rat were in Late Stage Rank Three, they were both of the same cultivation levels.
In a head-on collision, Gao Yong was defeated.
As a powerful mutated beast species, the River-Turning Rat’s strength was undoubtedly revealed at this moment.
The power of Gao Yong’s Raging Wave Palm cultivation method was not strong enough to make a mark.
If he changed to a higher-level cultivation technique, he might have been able to aereat tne Klver-‘l’urnmg Kat.
Gao Yong obviously knew this as well. He stared at the sound of the shipwreck being cut and gritted his teeth as he continued to charge at the River-Turning
Rat.
He had to hold on for a while longer. Once they got the Sun Fruit from the cargo hold, he would immediately retreat!
“I guess I should start moving too…”
The Electric Field enveloped the area again as Chu Lingjun carried on observing the fight. It was time for him to try and make a move.
Chu Lingjun immediately ordered the electric eel clone to move closer to the sunken ship.
The Wild Wave Company and the three River-Turning Rats were busy fighting under the river. The river was muddy, the river bank collapsed, and any support to hold the river fell.
This was a good thing because now, it was hard to find the electric eel moving secretly on the riverbed.
The electric eel soon reached the shipwreck and swam in quickly.
The electric eel soon appeared in front of the two crew members of the Wild Wave Company who were cutting the hatch. They were almost there, and would soon be able to break in.
Chu Lingjun waited quietly. When Gao Yong and the River-Turning Rat clashed again outside, two bolts of lightning instantly struck the two of them!
Upon closer inspection, Chu Lingjun’s lightning bolts were half blue and half purple after being enhanced by the Astral Helmet!
The two members of the Wild Wave Company were struck by the lightning and died. They could not do anything to counter such a sneak attack!
“These two are Late Stage Rank Two martial artists!”
When Chu Lingjun saw this scene, he couldn’t help but bare his teeth. As expected of a Rank Three spirit weapon, this Astral Helmet was truly awesome!
After killing the two, Chu Lingjun immediately asked the electric eel clone to hide the two bodies in a cabin and then hide in a corner of the cargo hold door. Chu Lingjun looked at the commotion outside and couldn’t help but snicker.
“Gao Yong, what are you going to do now?”
Gao Yong also quickly noticed the abnormality in the water and looked at the sunken ship in suspicion. The sound of the cutting machine had stopped!
He was struggling to hold on in order to obtain the sunken treasure. Every minute and every second felt like years. All he wanted was for his men to destroy the hatch quickly and obtain the treasure!
Now that the sound of the cutting machine stopped, Gao Yong’s mind almost collapsed!
However, many years of battle experience still allowed Gao Yong to quickly stabilize his mind.
He stared at the sunken ship and then looked at the Wild Wave Company members who were busy struggling to hold on. His expression changed, and finally, he gritted his teeth and made a decision. He said, “Gu Shan, go take a look in the boat! If anything happens, use all means to protect the loot!”
Gu Shan was fighting another River-Turning Rat. When he heard Gao Yong’s command, his expression changed, but he still replied, “Okay!”
He also noticed that the commotion in the sunken ship had disappeared, indicating that an accident had happened inside.
Under normal circumstances, when encountering an accident in the wild, retreating was the best choice.
However, now that the arrow was on the bow, no one was willing to retreat!
