Chapter 345 Yingzhou Island
"How can it be!"
"Hey, you're kidding, right..."
"That's the Nine Nether Palace! How could it be here..."
Several martial artists at the Lotus Realm were drenched in sweat, their expressions visibly tense.
Ye Kang frowned. He had never seen this force in the Outer Seas Guide.
Like most people, he had never heard of this name before. Someone asked, "Seniors, what exactly is the Nine Nether Palace?"
The young diviner said with a stern face, "The super demonic forces on the outskirts of the Coral Islands, and the combined forces of the entire archipelago, are only enough to rival the Nine Nether Palace."
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes widened and their legs began to tremble involuntarily.
Ye Kang was also startled.
The outer seas are already a behemoth to us, and it takes the combined efforts of all of them to fight against the Nine Nether Palace. Just how powerful are these demonic forces!
The fortune-telling youth looked at Ye Kang again: "Are you sure you didn't see wrong?"
Ye Kang turned his head and looked at the sea, without replying.
There was no need for a reply, because a gigantic, jet-black ship emerged from the storm, its black flag fluttering in the wind, and a swirling demonic aura that transformed into dark clouds that blotted out the sun.
Qu Yifan took a few steps back, his face turning completely pale.
"It's over, it's over, this really is the Nine Nether Palace, I never thought I, Qu, would die here..."
Ye Kang looked at the Carp God.
The latter looked up: "The Carp God knows nothing."
"..."
Ye Kang frowned deeply. Even his innate talent for good fortune was being masked by this terrifying demonic aura. Just who was this person?
Thinking of this, Ye Kang had already grasped the jade talisman given to him by Miss Wanyi, ready to run away at any moment.
Just when everyone was in despair, a sword light suddenly broke through the hurricane and shot towards them at an illogical speed.
The sword light stood in mid-air, transforming into a figure in green robes.
Qu Yifan's face lit up with joy upon seeing the newcomer: "Grandmaster!"
Everyone looked up, gazing at the figure with the menacing sword light.
Qu Yifan's grandmaster was only one person, and that was the strongest person on Yingzhou Island, the Supreme Ancestor of Yingzhou Sect, the Golden Sword True Man, Qu Yang.
Ye Kang's gaze sharpened, and he concealed his aura.
Like Senior Nie Qing, he is a Grandmaster of the Divine Sea Realm.
Master Jin Jian didn't even look at them; he simply bowed silently to the giant black ship.
“Your Highness, you have come to the wrong place. This is not the sea area of the Nine Nether Palace.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the giant black ship stopped.
Without a word, the giant ship turned around on the spot, carrying away boundless demonic energy, and left swiftly.
The storm stopped, and the weather cleared up.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank you so much, Master Jinjian! You saved our lives!"
"The Yingzhou Sect's righteousness is admirable! This junior admires it!"
The passengers on the boat bowed deeply to the Golden Sword Master, their gratitude overflowing. The Golden Sword Master glanced around, lingering a moment longer on the Carp God, before saying, "Let's go, let's leave this place as soon as possible."
"Yes, Grandmaster!"
Qu Yifan immediately mobilized the crew to rush back to Yingzhou Island at full speed.
Only after the Golden Sword Immortal transformed into a stream of light and departed did Ye Kang breathe a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, a Divine Sea Realm expert intervened, saving his life.
However, could the "Ninth Prince" that Jin Jian Zhenren just called out be the owner of that giant ship?
Ye Kang inexplicably thought of Jiu Fuzi.
Well, here comes another Ninth Prince.
Why does everyone like to call themselves "Your Highness" these days?
Aren't they ashamed?
……
And the other side.
On the black giant ship, a handsome young man in bright clothes held a clam-woman in his right arm, wantonly kneading her.
The clam maiden, writhing in pain from his kneading, quickly changed the subject, saying, "Your Highness, why be afraid of that sword cultivator? Does he dare to block the way to the Nine Nether Palace?"
The boy looked down at the clam woman who was speaking.
He lifted her chin, revealing her proud, snow-white breasts.
"Afraid? When the Nine Nether Palace does things, who have we ever been afraid of? If we're talking about being afraid, it's only that my brothers will find out I've disobeyed orders again and ventured into the human race's sea without permission, and that I'll be punished by them."
"That's what His Highness said."
The clam girl quickly smiled apologetically while trapping the boy's large hand between her legs.
The boy revealed a wicked smile, sticking out his tongue, which was none other than a scarlet snake's tongue.
"There's no mistake. This scent that's attracting me means there must be a hidden dragon on that ship. Once I bring this news back, even my elder brother won't be able to scold me."
……
Yingzhou Island Wharf.
The ship finally arrived safely.
Ye Kang, leading the carp spirit, was the last to disembark. Just as he was about to leave, Qu Yifan caught up with him.
"Fellow Daoist, please wait a moment!"
"What can I do for you, Mr. Qu?"
“Fellow Daoist, my master sent me a message when he left. He told me to keep an eye on you, saying that you are not simple. I thought about it and realized that you could see the Nine Nether Palace flag from so far away, so you must be no ordinary person. I came here specifically to make your acquaintance.”
Ye Kang laughed after hearing this.
The Golden Sword Master's intention was clearly to warn him to be careful and vigilant, but this guy took it as an invitation to befriend him.
Indeed, it made sense to have him watch the boat.
Ye Kang did not refuse, but smiled and said, "That's very good. I am Wang Yintai, and she is my colleague and friend, the Carp Goddess."
"Greetings, Brother Wang, and young friend, Carp God."
Qu Yifan solemnly cupped his hands in greeting, then extended his hand in invitation: "It is an honor to meet you two today. I must do my best to be a good host. I have membership cards for all the restaurants on Yingzhou Island."
"How can this be so embarrassing?"
Just as Ye Kang was about to decline, the Carp God raised his head: "The Carp God is hungry."
Okay, then there's no point in making excuses.
"Thank you very much, Brother Qu."
"No problem, no problem, please."
Qu Yifan led the way, and the three walked through the town. Ye Kang also occasionally looked around at the local customs and people.
Although not as large as Wanghai City, it was still fully equipped, and there were martial artists in uniform everywhere. The island scenery was quite unique.
Qu Yifan said, "Brother Wang, is this your first time visiting Yingzhou Island?"
"I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Brother Qu."
"Not at all, all guests are welcome. If you don't mind, brother, I'll give you a proper introduction..."
Qu Yifan was an extremely outgoing person. In just a few words, he addressed Ye Kang as a brother without any hesitation, treating him as a close friend.
Through his introduction, Ye Kang also learned about the story of the three islands in the East China Sea.
Originally, there were no sects on the three islands. However, several hundred years ago, three natives of the islands had a fortuitous encounter and, by supporting each other, cultivated together to the level of Grandmaster.
The three did not forget their roots; they returned to their respective hometowns, founded martial arts sects, and became powerful figures in their regions.
For example, the Golden Sword Master was born in Qujia Village, so most of the people in Yingzhou Sect are surnamed Qu.
As they talked, the three entered a restaurant. The owner naturally recognized Qu Yifan and immediately served the highest-grade dishes.
Ye Kang thanked him repeatedly, but Qu Yifan waved his hand and said, "It's just a little food, nothing to mention. But Brother Wang, is there anything you need to do on Yingzhou Island?"
really.
Ye Kang smiled slightly.
This guy may seem a bit dim-witted, but he didn't forget to ask Jin Jian Zhenren for information.
Ye Kang picked up a cup of wine and said earnestly, "To be honest, Brother Qu, there is something I want to do. I came here to find a disciple of the Yingzhou Sect."
