Standing on the prow, Xu Hai looked very elegant in a splendid silver-white robe. He looked at Zhang Ruochen, standing above the water level, and said with a smile, “Zhang Ruochen, why did you stop escaping?”

Zhang Ruochen had a look at the ship on which Xu Hai stood. He saw six corpses falling on the deck, gushing fresh blood. Obviously, they had just died.

The six dead people were soldiers of the Primitive World in Xu Hai’s squad.

Zhang Ruochen asked, “Why did you kill them?”

Xu Hai said with a smile, “I can’t let it out that I have come here to kill you. If they talk nonsense about me killing a fellow warrior from Kunlun’s Field after returning to base, I’ll be punished by the Ministry of War.”

Zhang Ruochen said, “So, you killed them to keep their mouths shut.”

“If it were not to form a squad to leave Huangyu Island, do you think I would take the same boat as them?”

Xu Hai said again, “Furthermore, this wasn’t murder. Upon reaching the base, I’ll tell the government officials at the Ministry of War that they were killed by aboriginals from Xuanwu Primitive World. As a result, their families will be given large pensions.”

Zhang Ruochen asked, “If I kill you, will the Ministry of War give a pension to the Saint Xu Gentry?”

Xu Hai looked solemn and cold. But soon, he roared with laughter, saying, “Zhang Ruochen, are you dazzled by your reputation as the No. 1 on the

Heaven

Board

? You really think that you’re invincible simply because you can’t find a decent opponent? But to tell you the truth, you’re just an ant in front of masters in the Fish-Dragon Realm.”

Zhang Ruochen said, “Isn’t it too early to jump to that conclusion? Only after having a fight will we know who is stronger, right?”

Xu Hai said, “You’re so arrogant and conceited. In the case, as your elder brother, I’m responsible for teaching you how to conduct yourself with humility.”

“Master, you don’t need t deal with a warrior in the Heaven Realm personally. I’ll kill him for you.”

A monk in the Fish-Dragon Realm came out from behind Xu Hai.

He was Xu Qianling, an elder of the Saint Xu Gentry.

Armed with a four meter Black Golden Stick, Xu Qianling took a step and rushed out of the ship. Treading on top of the waves, he struck Zhang Ruochen first.

Seeing that Xu Qianling rushed out, Xu Hai did not start making his moves, for the moment. He thought to himself that Xu Qianling was strong enough to cope with Zhang Ruochen.

“Xu Qianling had reached “Bone Refining to Jade” of the Third Change in the Fish-Dragon Realm. He was powerful enough to not be compared with warriors in the Heaven Realm.”

“Even if Zhang Ruochen ranked first on the

Heaven Board

, he could not be stronger than Xu Qianling.”

“What’s more, Xu Qianling was the disciple of the Saint Gentry, so he was stronger than an ordinary monk in the Third Change in the Fish-Dragon Realm. Even if he fought with a Fourth Change monk, he might not be defeated.”

“How could Zhang Ruochen possibly defeat him?”

Xu Hai had confidence in Xu Qianling. Thus, he was too lazy to start making a move. After all, you don’t need a sledgehammer to crack a peanut.

” Swoosh!”

Xu Qianling’s Genuine Qi was abundant. It surged through his arms and into the Black Golden Stick, a tenth level Genuine Martial Arm.

He brandished his war staff, stirring a layer of seawater into a wave that surged towards Zhang Ruochen.

Spurred by the strength of Xu Qianling’s staff technique, waves smashed against Zhang Ruochen’s Celestial Bodyshield and flung him about 30 meters away .

“Haha! The number one on the Heaven Board is nothing more than an ant in front of a Fish-Dragon Realm monk.”

With a laugh, Xu Qianling held the war staff and launched an attack once again.

Zhang Ruochen steadied himself and stopped retreating. He pulled the Abyss Ancient Sword out and turned his arms quickly over the water to stir up a circle of waves.

Water rotated around the blade like a stream.

With the sound of a crack, the circle of waves froze and turned into numberless three inch ice knives.

“Out!”

Zhang Ruochen swung his arm and the ice knives flew at Xu Qianling like a rain of blades.

“Heaven Shaking Fury.”

Xu Qianling chopped downwards with his stick.

The Black Golden Stick formed a 30 meter long shadow as wide as a bowl. It stroke downward and shattered all the ice knives into a fine powder.

The huge staff shadow contained the most frightful force. It depressed the whole surface of the water, stirring up waves about 30 meters tall.

Zhang Ruochen immediately put his sword sideways to block. Sword Breath came out endlessly, like a body flying up. It formed a large bell of Sword Breath.

” Pow!”

In an instant, the huge staff shadow shattered the large bell of Sword Breath, and he was struck and flung away once again.

His sword hand suffered a minor injury and throbbed.

“Zhang Ruochen,
