Chapter 630B - The Young Maid

Hum –

The boat was covered in brilliant ripples as a barrier shield was raised around it. It immediately began to move forward. Its speed was quick and it left the trading market behind it in several breaths of time.

Bai Lu stood at the ship’s bow, his gaze calm. “It will be around two hours until we reach the great ship. During this period of time, I hope that you can only look through the jade slip that is placed near your seats. There is information recorded within related to the Sea of Bewildering Fog that you should know.

“This venture might be dangerous, but as long as you all remain sufficiently careful I believe everyone will return alive.”

“Humph I hope so!”

It was unknown who sneered but the atmosphere on the boat suddenly turned tense.

Bai Lu faintly smiled. He turned and sat down. His mission would be completed soon…moreover, there was no need to argue with people that were destined to die.

Qin Yu picked up the jade slip. Once he didn’t sense anything wrong, he searched it with his divine sense. After several breaths of time he opened his eyes, his expression calm once more.

There was scant information related to the Sea of Bewildering Fog. But as long as he had the mind to look, he could obtain some harvests.

For instance, the fog within the Sea of Bewildering Fog could confuse the minds of cultivators. Once they were lost they would remain there forever, turning into brain dead people that wandered there until they died.

For instance, special sea tides might carry out stone beads.

When he combined all of this information together and synthesized it, although he didn’t have absolute assurance, it was likely that the Sea of Bewildering Fog was the source of all stone beads in the Sealed Stone World.

The reason Qin Yu was entering the Sea of Bewildering Fog was to find the birthplace of these stone beads.

The wooden boat continued to fly out from the ‘nebula’ of sealed stones. Qin Yu thought of the emptiness behind him when he first arrived.

Could that have been the Sea of Bewildering Fog?

There wasn’t much information in the outside world concerning the Sealed Stone World. Even the Demonic Path’s information had many missing holes in it.

Soon, two hours passed. The boat smoothly flew out from the scope of the sealed stone ‘nebula’.

There was a giant ship anchored in the void. Its flat surface was covered in bumps, as if it were made of scales.

Once Qin Yu approached, his heart chilled and he looked at the ship with a dignified expression. This ship had actually been directly refined from some sort of living being!

This was a ship but it was also a corpse. Even though it had already died, the aura of a living creature had yet to fully dissipate.

It was as heavy and grand as a mountain, pressing down upon one’s chest and making it hard to breathe!

Bai Lu stood up and clapped his hands. “Everyone, we have arrived. Please board the ship according to the described directions. Once you are onboard, there will be others ready to guide you.”

Qin Yu suddenly furrowed his eyebrows. He glanced around, his eyes faint.

In front of him, the pale young maid had eyes filled with pain and guilt. Her lips moved as she muttered, “I’m sorry.”

Qin Yu said, “Whatever choice you make, that is your freedom. There is no need to apologize to me.” Looking at the young maid’s pained and plaintive expression, he couldn’t help but acknowledge that her acting skills were superb. This was something beyond the level of ‘acting queen’.

“Humph!” With a cold cough, the large fellow glared at her, “Yunyun, what are you doing?”

He grabbed onto her shoulders and pulled her into his chest. Then, he looked at Qin Yu, his ugly face twisting together.

“Boy, let me warn you, I won’t say the same words again. Do you understand?”

Qin Yu said, “Don’t worry. I am obsessive about cleanliness so I won’t touch things that have been used.”

The young maid stiffened.

Qin Yu walked away. Since he didn’t want to be bothered with such things he could only use the strongest move in his repertoire.

Although he had no idea what this woman’s goal was, he thought that as long as he said these words he should be at peace for some time.

The large fellow roared out loud, “You bastard, just who do you think you are to insult my woman!”

He fiercely walked forward but was stopped by the young maid. “Don’t. The trade association will not permit private battles. I…I just wanted to express my thanks to him. If he doesn’t want me to approach him then I will stay further away…don’t be angry!”

The large fellow clenched his teeth, “He can consider himself lucky!”

The young maid glanced at Qin Yu’s back, a cold chill in her eyes.

You bastard, just wait for this old lady!

…….

Qin Yu and his group were the last batch of people to board. On this ship that was refined from a giant life form, there were already a hundred people waiting. These people all had the same status as Qin Yu; they were cultivators brought to guard the ship.

That’s right, the explanation that the Three United Trade Association had given them was that these people were needed to protect the ‘treasure box’ inside the ship’s cabin.

“All of the fellow
