Gu Qingxi had already discovered that after Huo Xiaodao and Murong Yi started playing chess for a while, Phantom's eyes would occasionally look over, as if he was observing them playing chess.
Gu Qingxi even suspected that Phantom was interested in Gobang and might have already watched it.
Suddenly, Phantom stood up abruptly, looking into the distance with a stern face.
Gu Qingxi also followed his gaze, released his divine sense to investigate, and frowned slightly.
A group of ship beasts were approaching this side quickly.
Murong Yi and the others also noticed Gu Qingxi's actions and released their divine sense to investigate.
"One, two... eight, nine, ten." Murong Yi counted the number of ship beasts in front of him in a low voice.
There were a total of ten ship beasts in front! The
leading ship beast was particularly large and very fast.
Phantom felt the fleet approaching, and a look of disdain appeared on his face, and there was a strong sarcasm in the depths of his eyes.
The fleet soon appeared in everyone's eyes.
At this time, Gu Qingxi had a more intuitive understanding of the poverty of the ship they were on.
The fleet approaching them had a four-story cabin on the back of the leading ship beast, and each floor had many separate rooms. The higher the floor, the more luxurious the doors. The
other ship beasts had three-story cabins on their backs. Although they were not as luxurious as the leading ship, they were much better than the open-air ship they were on.
Moreover, a gorgeous emblem with the same pattern was engraved on the main body of each ship.
The passengers on Gu Qingxi's ship were extremely excited after seeing the emblems on those ships.
It was the fleet of the general!
It must be the general who came to encircle and suppress the pirates. They were saved!
Phantom stood at the bow, looking at the fleet that was changing its formation and preparing to surround the ship under his feet, his eyes were as cold as ice.
Huo Xiaodao leaned on the side of the ship and looked at the fleet not far away curiously. The leading ship beast was indeed very big, but it was still far inferior to his own roar.
Gu Qingxi and the others were also observing the fleet in front of them.
It was obvious that these ship beasts were well-trained, and the people on the fleet were not ordinary residents of the abyss.
The people on the fleet were all dressed in uniform, like guards. Although the weapons they used were different, there were swords, spears, and axes, but the handles of all the weapons were the same color and pattern.
This was more like a well-trained army.
The octopus crew came over and whispered something that confirmed Gu Qingxi's guess.
"Miss Gu, this fleet is led by the general. He has been suppressing pirates. No, to be precise, he has been chasing Phantoms on the sea for many years." After the octopus crew member finished speaking, he lowered his voice very low. "The general is indeed suppressing pirates on the orders of the king, but it seems that he is mainly trying to strangle Phantom. The other pirates are just incidental. It is said that the general and Phantom have a personal grudge. That's why he did this."
The other passengers were clinging to the side of the ship at this time, looking at the fleet that surrounded them in front of them with excitement, and they wanted to jump off the ship beast immediately and swim towards those fleets.
However, considering the group of flashing teeth swimming under the ship beast, no one dared to act rashly.
Ten ship beasts surrounded the ship beast where Gu Qingxi and the others were, but kept a long distance.
Obviously, the general knew very well the power of the flashing teeth driven by Phantom.
Soon, a voice came from the big ship at the head of the fleet. The voice was deep: "Phantom, surrender. You should know that your black fish can't deal with so many of our ship beasts."
Phantom stood at the bow, letting the sea breeze blow his long hair wantonly. There was no expression on his handsome face, just a faint sentence: "You can try."
Did the fleet come to try?
No.
Phantom Pirate is the most special pirate on the sea. Although he has always been alone, he makes the ships on the sea tremble with fear and terrified. Even those fleets with more than a dozen sea beasts are not as fierce as his reputation.
The black fish he drives are the nemesis of all ship beasts.
The deep voice just now sounded again: "Phantom, don't think I don't know that the feed for your black fish is running out. You can't drive them if you can't feed the black fish. You can't escape this time!" Phantom
heard this, his face remained unchanged, and he just said faintly: "Don't fart, if you want to fight, hurry up."
The fleet was silent instantly.
Gu Qingxi could even imagine the twisted look on the face of the person who shouted after hearing what Phantom said.
Then the two sides were in a stalemate.
Wan Ling couldn't help it: "Master, the other side is really cowardly. They shouted a lot of harsh words, but they didn't dare to move."
Gu Qingxi replied to Wan Ling: "That's because the other side is not sure whether Phantom's Flash Tooth Ling is really out of food. The most important thing is that they don't know that the black fish driven by Phantom is Flash Tooth Ling. Without Phantom's restraint, the real slaughter will begin."
"Ignorance, stupidity!" Wan Ling bared his teeth, "If Phantom is really killed, it will be a disaster. But, Master, don't you think Phantom is not the unforgivable pirate in the mouths of the crew?"
Gu Qingxi heard this, thought about it, and directly opened the spiritual eye to Phantom.
After taking a look, Gu Qingxi felt a burning pain in his eyes and immediately closed the spiritual eye.
"Qingxi! What's wrong with your eyes?!" Murong Yi exclaimed, looking at Gu Qingxi and asked.
"No bleeding." Gu Qingxi subconsciously wiped the corner of her eyes and felt that except for the burning pain just now, there was no other discomfort. And when she touched the corner of her eyes, there was indeed no bleeding. What was Murong Yi exclaiming?
Lekong glanced at Gu Qingxi, silently took out a small mirror from his arms, and held it in front of Gu Qingxi.
Then Gu Qingxi saw that her eyes were red, just like a person who was possessed.
"Have you opened your spiritual eyes?" Lekong asked in a low voice.
Murong Yi slowly tilted her head and looked at Lekong, wondering in her heart, as a monk, why would he carry a mirror with him? It's really carried with him! He took it out of his arms, not from the storage bag!
"Yes." Gu Qingxi nodded.
"What did you see?" Feng Xiatian asked in a low voice. Lekong
was also curious about what Gu Qingxi saw that made her eyes red like this.
Gu Qingxi did not answer immediately, but looked up at the leading ship beast in the fleet ahead and whispered: "Rumors and truth, sometimes there is a huge gap between the two."
Everyone was stunned when they heard this.
Feng Xiatian and Lekong knew best what Gu Qingxi's spiritual eyes meant.
They both looked at the phantom in astonishment.
So, the phantom was not as evil as the rumors said?
Then, what about those rumors?
