Chapter 1158: Changing Ships

The ship’s atmosphere relaxed a little. Everyone knew that Casting Sea had decided to return to port.

Although many people had died, they were still alive. And each living person had obtained a harvest far surpassing their expectations.

On the Cold Sea, risks and rewards were always proportional to each other.

This was the reason why the brigands of Black City were able to patiently bear things until now.

After all, the ways of thinking between people who were barefoot and those who wore shoes were different.

Seeing the ship changing directions, King Mystery’s complexion darkened. He stared at Qin Yu and said, “I hope from now on you can keep quiet.”

Qin Yu understood his meaning. He smiled and said, “Of course. I won’t make things awkward for you.”

King Mystery almost exploded with rage. What did he mean by not making things awkward for him? What are you smiling for? You bastard, why don’t you just go and die!

But whether King Mystery was willing to or not, after a day passed it was finally time to meet. A second ship appeared on the Cold Sea. The red lanterns on the bow of the ship were alight, giving off an unexpectedly warm feeling.

Several figures wreathed in black robes stood beneath the lanterns. They silently gazed at the giant ship.

Qin Yu held onto the sleepy and weary Mian Ya. “Senior, let’s go.”

King Mystery was without expression. He pushed open the door and walked out. As he did, he attracted numerous eyes.

Because from the time the great ship set sail, the cabin where Qin Yu and the others stayed had never opened up. They remained silent no matter what invasion or attack they faced from the sea.

Although one wouldn’t receive any harvests if they didn’t risk their life, there were still some people who were discontent about their inaction. This was especially true when they intruded deep into the Cold Sea and the shadow of death hovered over all their heads.

Of course, the incomparably beautiful Mian Ya was also an important reason.

In a normal situation, the brigands would retain their logical reasoning. But in this situation where they had no idea if they would even survive, they didn’t have many scruples left.

Before, some people tried to open the cabin door. And they did succeed. It could even be said that they walked in without much effort.

But that was it.

Everyone who entered the cabin vanished inside, and none of them ever came back out.

After several attempts, the cabin where Qin Yu and his group stayed became a restricted area.

But now, they actually took the initiative to come out. Was it because of the other ship that appeared on the sea?

The Cold Sea was incredibly vast, yet there was only one Black City. And the ships that could sail out from Black City were actually limited.

Only now did the brigands that were shivering in the cold discover that the ship in front of them was an unfamiliar one.

It wasn’t as large as their ship, but it was clearly far superior. As it floated on the Cold Sea, there was no ice covering its surface.

There were four people in black robes. They were thinly dressed and two of them were obviously women.

A strange ship had appeared deep in the Cold Sea, all of its crew wearing robes, with two men and two women…even an idiot knew that things weren’t as simple as they seemed.

So the people on the giant ship remained silent. No one said anything.

Casting Sea could feel the eyes gathering on him from all around. He was the one who issued the order to change course. Now deep in the boundless Cold Sea, they encountered another ship. If he said this was just a coincidence, that would be an insult to their collective intelligence.

But it was impossible for Casting Sea to give a response to this. If the existence of the Nether Royal Bloodline was revealed even a little bit, all of them would have to pay with their lives as the price for this knowledge.

In the silence, King Mystery walked in front. Qin Yu carried Mian Ya in his arms and followed behind. The crowd automatically parted ways.

Countless eyes were filled with awe and confusion.

With a step, King Mystery, Qin Yu, and Mian Ya flew towards the not-too-distant ship.

But just as they flew into the skies, the sea’s surface burst apart. A black shadow rushed out and headed straight towards Qin Yu.

The shadow was long and slender. It was like an arrow that had reached an inconceivable speed.

What was more terrifying was that whether it broke through the sea surface or tore through the air, it didn’t make any sense.

This black shadow was like a genuine shadow.

But shadows could also kill. Qin Yu was well aware of this. Much less, whatever this was that flew out from the sea definitely wasn’t a shadow.

It was dangerous, but Qin Yu wasn’t flustered.

Pa –

With a soft sound, the black shadow hurtled to the side and landed on the giant ship. It was actually a black-banded fish.

Its head was extremely small, only the size of an adult’s knuckle. Its eyes were even smaller, about the size of a grain of rice.

But it was in the state of that amazing speed that this ribbon-like fish had been pierced through between the eyes, its entire head torn apart.

One strike to take its life!

“Swordfish!”

The complexions of countless brigands changed and they all revealed panicked expressions.

There were countless demon beasts in the Cold Sea, and they had encountered many before. But in terms of individual lethality, this swordfish in front of them was second to none.

It was a terrifying predator that hid within the black Cold Sea. Once it selected its prey, it would release a sudden attack.

Even a Demon Commander level powerhouse had no ability to resist the sudden killing attack of a swordfish.

But now, such a horrific killer demon beast of the Cold Sea had been butchered in the blink of an eye?

In fact, they only saw a black shadow flash in front of them. Then, its body had flown past them. They simply had no idea how it died.

King Mystery lightly said, “This fish shall be given to you. Consider it your compensation.”

Casting Sea bowed, “Thank you, my lord.”

His eyes were full of excitement.

Although the swordfish wasn’t the goal he was hunting for and the great business he came for was ruined, he would still be able to sell this swordfish for an amazing price.

King Mystery didn’t say much else. His figure flickered and he appeared on the other ship. Qin Yu was a step behind. As he arrived on the deck, he instantly felt a warmth that he hadn’t experienced for a long time. It was released from the ship and scattered away the chilling cold.

Thinking about it, this was also normal. Since the Nether Royal Bloodline was hidden in the Cold Sea, they had to have a way to resist the cold.

He glanced at the four people completely wreathed in robes. Two men, two women, and none of them were weak.

As Qin Yu observed them, their eyes were also on him. But they soon looked away and bowed in unison, “Greetings, Great Uncle!”

King Mystery nodded, “Let’s go.”

The ship lit with red lanterns turned and sailed deeper into the Cold Sea. They soon became a red dot that finally vanished from sight.

Casting Sea took a deep breath and shouted out, “We’re heading back!”

The giant ship turned around, sailing in the direction of Black City.

Lynx revealed a complex look in her eyes. She started to speak but hesitated.

Casting Sea turned around. He looked at her as well as his other trusted subordinates, “Don’t ask about things you have no need to know about.”

Because if they asked, it would all be in vain. The smarter they were, the more they guessed, the faster they would die…this was forcing him to kill!

But at this moment, Qin Yu’s figure appeared in Casting Sea’s mind. Who was this mysterious young man and what was his origin? Why did he come to the Cold Sea?

Although Qin Yu had been respectful towards King Mystery, Casting Sea didn’t feel much dread in this respect.

Instead, when King Mystery faced Qin Yu, he felt a little tied up…

He took a deep breath and suppressed these thoughts. He shouldn’t think about things he had no qualifications to. He had just reminded others, so why make the same mistake himself?

No matter who Qin Yu was or what he wanted to do, it had nothing to do with him.

The only thing he needed to concern himself with was safely returning to Black City.

…

Casting Sea and the others were freed because someone else had taken their place.

Facing King Mystery’s inquiry, Qin Yu no longer gave a perfunctory answer, but replied in all seriousness – “I want to enter the Cold Sea.”

But in truth, he was already in the Cold Sea. And in an extremely deep and remote region that very few people dared to ever step foot into.

In this situation, he still gave the same answer. A dignified look crossed King Mystery’s complexion as a result.

Qin Yu had given an explicit goal. He wanted to go deeper into the Cold Sea. As for how far, he didn’t give an answer.

To put it in simpler terms – the deeper the better!

Before, it was said that an Abyssal True King’s strength was above all others in the abyss. Besides ultra-existences of the same level, there were almost no dangers that could threaten their safety.

But the Cold Sea was one of them, and the most terrifying kind at that.

The Nether Royal Bloodline had been shunned by the world and escaped to the Cold Sea. Out of all the various abyssal tribes, they understood its dangers the best of all.

Many years ago, there was even a formidable True King of the Nether Royal Bloodline who insisted on exploring the depths of the Cold Sea. He left and never returned.

The result could be imagined!
