Lin Fengzi was so shocked that she couldn't speak for a moment.
If it really was those "people" from Crescent Bay who specifically requested Ruan Chen by name, then no one could keep her here.
"Organize your men now and set off immediately!" Lin Fengzi's nails dug deeply into his palms, as if he felt no pain at all. "Stop them and bring Ruan Chen back!"
The man simply shook his head. "Mr. Lin, this is not something you or I can handle."
"But she's not even an adult yet! What can Crescent Bay do with her? Even if..."
Before Lin Fengzi could finish speaking, he suddenly felt a slight dizziness in his head, followed by a sharp and piercing explosion from mid-air. His mental strength level was not considered excellent, and he was slightly unsteady under the sudden impact.
Meanwhile, a large number of people on Haitang Port fell to the ground, some staggering and some sprawling.
This is oppression from a spiritual level.
Ruan Luo, who was arguing with someone about how to buy a fleet of ships with money, looked up and saw a black warship hovering quietly in mid-air.
The arrow hovered in mid-air for a few seconds, as if to declare its existence, circling the crowd once before heading towards the vast sea without looking back.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye.
“That’s one of China’s ten most famous swords!” Someone from Country M recognized it. “I saw it once by chance many years ago; it was the warship form of Zhanlu!”
Why are the Ten Famous Swords here?
"Hasn't it always been said that Zhanlu has been without a master since the great war many years ago? Now it's clear that someone is manipulating Zhanlu to find someone."
"Follow them!"
Ruan Luo didn't understand what the Ten Famous Swords were, but he could tell that the strange black warship had appeared to save his sister. He had already negotiated terms with the fleet that had been temporarily hired, essentially using money to pave a way out.
When Ye Huanhuan learned of the incident, she rushed over immediately. Ruan Luo did not describe the situation to her in a serious manner, and did not dare to say that this group of people were targeting Ruan Chen.
Ruan Yu'er, the little girl, was also very tacit with him and did not let anything slip. After looking at her brother with concern, she made an excuse that she was not feeling well and coaxed Ye Huanhuan to take her away.
Watching the fleet he had hired at great expense set sail, Ruan Luo finally had the mind to talk to Lin Fengzi about what had just happened.
Lin Fengzi looked rather pale, rubbing his temples repeatedly. Many other students were in similar condition, and some even vomited on the beach.
Just now, Zhanlu was too close to them, and Fu Jianzhi did not restrain his spiritual power at all, pouring it out without reservation, which caused a strong pressure and impact on them.
"Fengzi, what's going on here?"
“It’s alright,” Lin Fengzi said, too lazy to explain further. “China has sent people, so Ruan Chen is probably not in any serious trouble.”
He thought Ruan Luo was fine just because she had been standing far away.
"Was that warship from our side just now? A direct flight from China takes more than 20 hours, how come this warship flew so fast?"
Lin Fengzi gave him an annoyed look. "You wouldn't understand even if I told you. Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask."
Ruan Luo was still worried and pressed on, "Is Ruan Chen really alright? Was that warship really able to bring her back?"
Lin Fengzi thought to herself, "Isn't that obvious? That's Zhanlu, one of the Ten Famous Swords. Although I don't know who Zhanlu's owner is, he must be a very important figure in China. Ruan Chen is really lucky. It just so happens that this important figure is also in the US, which is why he was able to react in time."
But then Lin Fengzi thought again, since Ruan Chen herself had a connection with Chi Xiao, was it possible that Zhan Lu's purpose in appearing in the M country was to protect her?
But these are not things he can worry about.
Fu Jianzhi sat in the control room, staring at the vast sea on the monitor screen. Before long, he saw a wrecked cruise ship floating far away on the sea.
The cruise ship lost power, and the bottom was probably taking on water, causing it to list to one side.
The sea around the cruise ship was also tinged with an unusual crimson. Zhanlu's detection system had a wide and clear coverage area. Fu Jianzhi could even see the dorsal fins of sharks rising and falling on the distant sea surface, attracted by the fresh blood.
Zhanlu stopped far away, not in a hurry to get closer.
The speedboat that had been chasing Zhanlu all the way stopped, unaware of what was going on.
Their detection systems were completely unaware of what was happening on the sea surface ahead.
Several shells were fired from Zhanlu's direction, exploding in front of the speedboat. Then, a cold and murderous voice came from Zhanlu's superior position, "Follow me again, and you'll die!"
The speedboat hesitated for a moment, then the people on board shouted into a loudspeaker toward Zhanlu, "We're here to assist you..."
Before he could finish speaking, another shell came flying, this time even closer.
Only after confirming that there were no unimportant people following him did Fu Jianzhi finally maneuver Zhanlu to hover above the cruise ship.
Everywhere you look, there is blood and corpses, clearly indicating that an extremely brutal battle had taken place here.
The bodies that were killed by a single shot did not actually look too bloody—at least compared to the bodies on the deck that had died from fighting each other, they looked much more normal.
There were a dozen or so mutilated corpses lying on the deck. Before they died, they seemed to have experienced a frenzied, bestial fight. There were deep teeth marks on their necks, their arms were torn off, and their hair and scalp were ripped off...
Some people die with their eyes still open, and what they see reflected in their eyes, besides the blue sky and white clouds, is a fear they have never experienced before in their lives.
They seemed to have fallen into a collective illusion, an illusion filled only with killing.
The pungent smell of blood hit him, but Fu Jianzhi's expression remained unchanged. However, he felt nauseous and had to bend over to vomit a couple of mouthfuls of bile before he felt a little better.
Ruan Chen fell into a deep sleep beside him.
Not a single drop of blood stained her fair and beautiful face, though her clothes were stained in several places. She was frowning in her sleep, probably experiencing a bad dream.
But Fu Jianzhi did not wake her up.
When Ruan Chen woke up, all she saw was the white of a hospital, and the bloody smell from her dream turned into the smell of disinfectant in the hospital in reality.
Lin Fengzi, Ruan Luo, and Ye Huanhuan all stayed by her side.
“You’ve been unconscious for five whole days. We’ve done all sorts of tests, and there’s nothing wrong with you, but you just won’t wake up.”
Lin Fengzi asked, "Do you remember what happened?"
