After things calmed down here, Quan Cang looked at the other ship with worry in his eyes. The spirit boat of Qingtao Valley and the one of Zhentian Clan were far apart; he could only see a small white dot on it, barely able to make out what was happening on it. A woman walked up to Quan Cang, saw his worried face, and smiled, saying, "Junior Brother, do you want to see your sweetheart?"
Quan Cang frowned, pursed his lips, and shook his head. "She's my junior sister. She's in Qingtao Valley, and I'm worried about her safety."
The woman smiled faintly, a hint of realization in her eyes, and didn't ask any further questions. Quan Cang understood her meaning: he wasn't allowed to like or look at other women. This woman was a disciple of the Zhentian Clan. She had started showing favor to Quan Cang on the first day he boarded the ship. This senior sister cultivated the Path of Ruthlessness, wanting to kill her lover to prove her Dao. However, she hadn't found anyone on the second level suitable. This time, she came to the third level to choose a suitable Dao partner, cultivate feelings, and then kill her husband to prove her Dao.
Everyone looked at Quan Cang with strange expressions, their demeanor unusual. Quan Cang pursed his lips, his face pale, pretending not to know anything and feigning ignorance.
On Xu Yuehuai's side, everyone fought hard. When the third bolt of lightning struck, the entire spiritual energy shield was broken. Elder Zisang was shocked and hurriedly used his power to repair the spiritual energy shield, but the entire ship had already capsized more than halfway, and everyone began to tilt towards the side of the ship.
Xu Yuehua frowned; the situation was dizzying. She was thrown overboard and, thankfully, reacted quickly enough to grab the edge. However, the spirit boat remained unstable. Ji Yuanchi fell to the edge, unable to get up. Looking at Xu Yuehua outside the boat, her heart was in her throat. "Yueyue! Hold on to me!"
Ji Yuanchi moved closer to Xu Yuehuai, wanting her to grab her hand, but the distance between them was three or four meters, making it impossible for her to reach. The spirit boat was also shaking incessantly, preventing Ji Yuanchi from standing up.
Xu Yuehuai gripped the edge tightly, but he felt it was futile. His hands gradually lost strength, the shaking of the spirit boat made his hands slip, and the spiritual energy in his body was almost depleted from repairing the spiritual energy shield.
Xu Yuehuai will definitely not die here today. She still has Yuan Shui, which she can summon to help pull herself up. However, summoning him too easily may bring disaster upon herself in the future.
"What are you still arguing about, woman! You're about to die! Do you know what's down there? Let me out right now!" Yuan Shui was anxious and helpless inside the space. Xu Yuehuai had locked him inside, preventing him from getting out on his own. He could only wait for her summons.
Everyone on the spirit boat was thrown about, and like Xu Yuehuai, another person was thrown out of the boat. Yu Ze had half his body outside, his hands tightly gripping the railing, trying to use the leverage to climb back in, while shouting, "Help me! I'm falling! Help me! If my father finds out I died here when we get back, you'll all be in big trouble!"
Yu Ze hadn't assessed the situation properly and was still threatening everyone, but no one could care about his safety now, as they were all struggling to protect themselves. Moreover, in terms of the level of danger, Xu Yuehuai's side was in a more precarious situation. At least he still had half his body inside the spirit boat, and he could still manage to climb in if he tried hard enough.
Ji Yuanchi was so anxious that she almost cried when she realized she couldn't get through. She kept trying, but she made no progress at all. Meanwhile, when the spirit boat capsized, Pu Erge's head hit the edge and he briefly lost consciousness. Fortunately, he was lucky and was not thrown out directly, but just stuck on the edge.
When he woke up, all he could hear was Ji Yuanchi's heart-wrenching roar.
Just as Xu Yuehuai was about to lose her grip and was about to use her Yuan Water, she suddenly felt a force lifting her up from behind and from the front, as if trying to pull her up.
She looked up and saw a faint ghostly shadow, desperately trying to pull Xu Yuehuai up.
She looked in the direction of Fu Ziyi, who was standing next to Ji Yuanchi, his face pale and a bloodstain on his lips, looking quite gruesome.
Seeing her looking at him, Fu Ziyi smirked and said, "Junior Sister Xu, you can't die! I haven't had enough fun yet! Hold on tight!"
It was obvious that Fu Ziyi had used up almost all of his spiritual power, which was why these ghosts were so weak.
The two ghosts, one in front and one behind, actually pulled Xu Yuehuai a little closer, making Ji Yuanchi so happy she almost cried.
Xu Yuehuai was not one to sit idly by and wait for death. After realizing that she had climbed up a little, she adjusted her posture and began to climb up on her own.
Elder Zisang and two other elders were busy stabilizing the spirit boat. All three of them were injured and bleeding to some extent.
When Xu Yuehuai came up, Ji Yuanchi breathed a huge sigh of relief. She relaxed, lay down beside her, and tears streamed down her face.
At this time, the spirit boat gradually returned to normal, and everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The situation wasn't as critical for Pu Tianyi in the neighboring Qianlibao. Upon seeing the situation in Qingtao Valley, his heart was in his throat, fearing something might happen to them. However, since they were on the left, they couldn't see what was happening on the right side of the ship.
After things returned to normal, everyone sat on the ground and cried their hearts out. Xu Yuehuai's hands were trembling. Because he had been hanging outside for too long, no one paid any attention to Yu Ze's cries for help. In the end, he had to climb up on his own, which resulted in an injury to his arm and his face was as black as ink.
Elder Zisang and the other two sat on the deck, panting, and said to everyone, "Everyone, quickly get yourself together. There's one last time. Before the lightning strikes, everyone get back inside!"
Elder Zisang's intentions were clear at this moment: to lead everyone to repair the spiritual energy shield before the lightning arrived, and then hide inside after it arrived, knowing that the spiritual energy shield was destined to break and the lightning was destined to hit the ship, which might capsize again.
No one dared to delay and immediately did as Elder Zisang instructed.
Those from Thousand Mile Fortress who witnessed this scene were filled with doubt and asked the elder, "Has their sect become so poor? Why don't they have life-saving magical artifacts like ours?"
The man meant no harm, but his words were hurtful. The elder was silent for a moment before replying, "A lot has happened in Qingtao Valley this year. All the spiritual artifacts were used to protect the valley from being trapped by miasma. I did not bring any spiritual artifacts with me this time."
The disciples were all taken aback by what the elder said.
Pu Tianyi stood there with his hands clenched into fists, his face grim. He even felt a hint of resentment towards Zi Sangyi. If he hadn't forcibly locked onto Xu Yuehuai, none of the three of them would have ended up in Qingtao Valley.
