Chapter 46 A Feast for Crows

Xiao Bai stood at the bow of the boat with his hands behind his back, speeding through the vast sea of ​​clouds.

The strong wind whistled past with a rumbling sound, but his clothes and hair did not move at all.

The Xuanjie Daomeng boat is a dark black spiritual boat shaped like a long sword, five meters long and six feet wide, and can carry up to fifty people.

The pentagonal spirit-drive wheel on the hilt is a spirit-stone drive device that can modify the proportion of the five elements of spirit power at any time according to the environment in order to obtain maximum thrust or the most energy-saving flying speed.

There is a concave cabin on the sword body and a viewing platform on the bow. The outside of the hull is covered with a layer of light sky-blue light, giving it a perfect aerodynamic shape and defensive formation.

The Discipline Hall of Xueyan Sect and the Ministry of Justice of the imperial court are both equipped with a Xuan-level Taoist Alliance boat to strengthen their ties with the Taoist Alliance.

Generally speaking, a Xuan-level Daomeng boat requires at least one Jindan cultivator to control it with ease.

According to the rules, two deputies are also required.

But on the boat today, besides Xiao Bai, there was only Zhang Yufeng.

Xiao Bai felt something was wrong and asked directly:

"Generally speaking, shouldn't there be three boatmen on a Xuanjie Dao League boat? Why is Zhang Zhijie the only one piloting the boat this time?"

Zhang Yufeng looked normal and was serious.

"If Master Xiao was afraid, he should have told us before boarding the ship. Then the Discipline Elder might have brought a few more people to protect us."

Protect us?

Xiao Bai didn't feel any danger. He stood with his hands behind his back, looking normal.

"There's nothing to be afraid of. I just simply think that this is unreasonable."

Zhang Yufeng had a blank expression on his face, feeling that he could control this new uncle at any time.

"So...Master is afraid of me?"

Although he called me "Uncle Master", his tone was that of an elder addressing a younger person.

Even though Xiao Bai unexpectedly showed a talent in swordsmanship that was not inferior to Lan Daozi during the sect inspection ceremony.

However, as the chief disciple of Discipline Peak and possessing the cultivation level of the early Golden Core stage, Zhang Yufeng finds it difficult to take Xiao Bai, who is only at the Qi Refining stage, seriously.

Although he has a high talent for swordsmanship, he is only at the Qi Refining stage after all. How can he be worthy of Elder Yuhu? Perhaps, his future has unlimited possibilities.

But right now… he was just a pawn.

"Afraid of you? Who do you think you are?"

Xiao Bai retorted to Zhang Yufeng with one sentence.

He was not afraid of Zhang Yufeng. Any problems that occurred during the journey would be the responsibility of the Taoist Alliance.

No matter whether he is a good guy or a bad guy, Zhang Yufeng doesn't have the courage to do that.

Even if the Taoist Alliance really wanted to kill him, they would not do it on the way to the Taoist Palace.

At least we have to wait until he takes office as the arrest supervisor, and then arrange some unexpected accidents when arresting the criminals, and then put the blame on the criminals, so that it would be safe.

Zhang Yufeng was a little confused by Xiao Bai's criticism, so he lowered his posture and explained seriously:

"The reason why I am accompanying my uncle alone is mainly because I think there may be danger along the way. I am weak and it is inevitable that more people will not be able to provide adequate protection. Only when you and I are in danger can I do my best to abandon the ship and escape to protect my uncle."

What kind of Versailles explanation is this?

Xiao Bai was annoyed by what he heard.

"Stop talking nonsense and just sail the boat."

After saying this, Xiao Bai stood at the bow, overlooking the dark jungle below, and always felt that there were ferocious beasts staring at him...

Zhang Yufeng saw Xiao Bai's worry and comforted him:

"This area belongs to the Dao Alliance's flight route. Not to mention the Jindan-level beasts, even the Foundation Establishment-level beasts have been basically captured. There are no beasts that can threaten us right now."

Xiao Bai thought to himself: Speak nicely and don't raise the flag.

As a result, his words came true! Ten minutes later, Zhang Yufeng's words really became a jinx.

The originally clear sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds.

Black crow!

Dense swarms of black crows swooped down from the dark swirling clouds, one after another attacking the boat.

Their eyes have red spiral pupils and their beaks are as sharp as swords.

Although a single black crow is generally only at the Qi Refining Stage, their number is extremely large, exceeding 100,000!

The defense of the Taoist Alliance's boat was very effective, and the black crows were burned to ashes by the green light formation.

Unfortunately, the soundproofing effect of the formation was really poor, and the shrill screams kept tearing Xiao Bai's scalp.

"Didn't you say that there were no ferocious beasts threatening us?"

Zhang Yufeng steadied the boat, trying his best to stay calm, muttering to himself: "This is a beast tide... Only the Demon Alliance has the ability to launch such a large-scale beast tide. It seems that someone in the Demon Alliance wants your life... Stand still, we need to speed up!"

After saying this, the boat switched to full thrust.

But the bow of the ship was constantly hit by black crows, which seriously slowed down the flight speed.

Demon alliance?

Xiao Bai felt a little strange.

Yu Hu's contact person in the Demon Alliance, the black sheep old woman, said that she would not care about her Taoist partner...

Why did you suddenly attack him?

At this time!

Some of the black crows flew after the boat and changed their attack mode.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Before they encountered the green light formation, they suddenly exploded!

The ship shook violently.

Once the Black Crow in the Qi Refining Stage self-destructs, it will release a spiritual pressure that exceeds the peak of Qi Refining and is close to the Foundation Establishment Stage, thereby destroying and consuming the green light formation of the boat.

Zhang Yufeng felt the pressure and had to re-examine Xiao Bai's value.

"There is a master controlling the beast tide. It seems that Master Uncle is not an ordinary person."

Xiao Bai was speechless. Still chatting at this time?

"You found out too late."

A ruthless war of attrition begins...

Brilliant fireworks exploded in front and behind the ship, making a deafening sound.

The boat could not escape the pursuit of the beasts, and the hull was constantly shaking from the bombardment.

Zhang Yufeng sat cross-legged at the stern of the boat, steering the boat. His face was extremely pale and he was on the verge of fainting.

As the saying goes, fortune and misfortune go hand in hand. Xiao Bai felt that all the kidney stones left over from his previous life were shattered.

It was a good thing, plus he had the elixir in the jade pot to save his life, so he was relatively calm.

Crash...

Zhang Yufeng spat out a mouthful of blood.

"At this rate, the boat won't be able to hold on. We'll have no choice but to abandon it and flee. I'll carry you on my flying sword!"

Xiao Bai felt that the two of them had become a feast for the crows, so he simply sat there and waited to die.

"My intuition tells me that there might be an ambush outside. It is better to live and die with the boat."

Zhang Yufeng was stunned, wondering why Xiao Bai had such a suicidal idea.

"Don't worry. Generally speaking, the person who controls the beast tide is not too strong, otherwise he would not bother to control the beast tide. I will get off the boat first and explore the way for Master Uncle."

Xiao Bai nodded.

"Be careful."

Zhang Yufeng set the boat to self-propelled mode and jumped off the boat.

Although the autonomous mode could not last too long, it was enough for him to find the person controlling the crow tide.

As a result, just as he jumped off the boat, a giant crow in the Jindan realm hidden in the beast tide suddenly appeared and stabbed his chest with one claw...

If Zhang Yufeng hadn't reacted quickly, this claw would have pierced into his lower abdomen and crushed his dantian!

Coming back to his senses amid the gushing blood, Zhang Yufeng immediately drew his sword and slashed at the giant crow.

Xiao Bai was speechless. This guy was simply a flag saint! At the same time, a mechanical sound mercilessly struck into his mind -

[Ding——The system detected the suspected evil behavior of the second female lead Xiahou Muyun. Do you want to conduct a remote sensing inspection immediately? 】

Is this matter related to Mu Yun?

Xiao Bai was shocked.

【immediately!】

【immediately!】
