Chapter 4640: Arriving at the West Island

Originally, there was still a 90% chance of death, but if someone were to cause more trouble, then it would really be 10% certain death.
The crowd was scared because they didn’t know the details. If they knew that Lin Yi had the Jade, they wouldn’t be so scared. Lin Yi’s method was the same as when he was at the escort party in the South continent, using the Jade to signal the direction.
Bang! Bang! As they advanced, everyone suddenly heard a slight collision sound. As expected by the helmsman, they had obviously hit a reef. All of them were immediately on guard. If it was really a large reef, it would be a big problem.
However, what happened next was completely out of everyone’s expectations. Although they could always hear this kind of light collision sound every now and then, it was far less intense than they had imagined. If it was only this degree, it was completely within the tolerance range of the giant treasured ship.
“How is this possible?!” It wasn’t just the helmsman-everyone was stunned as well, including Gongyang Jie and LAN Tiefu. They all looked at Lin Yi in disbelief. This wasn’t something a normal person could do, unless Lin Yi was far stronger than them and could see through the fog with his spirit sense, but that was impossible!
The people on the giant treasured ship were only shocked. At this time, the spirit beast Masters on the ship were already stunned. Looking at the outline of the treasured ship quickly disappearing from their sight, all of them had a horrified expression on their faces. Wasn’t it too fast?
The reason they had chosen to move within the sea fog was that they were afraid that the other party would run away at all costs. After all, the speed of any treasured ship was not comparable to that of ordinary ships. Only by having the sea fog seal their movements would they have a chance of success. Putting aside the heavenly treasures on the ship, the value of the treasured ship alone was enough for them to live a carefree life.
However, they had never expected that before they could even start attacking the defensive array, the other party would actually run away as if they had taken the wrong medicine. Moreover, it looked like they had intentionally rushed into the group of reefs. What should they do?
The sea mist didn’t affect spirit beast Masters much, but it wasn’t to the point where they could ignore it. If they were driving like Lin Yi, they’d be in big trouble if they hit a few rocks and made a hole in the bottom of the boat.
The spirit beast Masters looked at each other and gave up. Treasure ships were hard to come by, but as long as they had enough patience, there would be another chance. These spirit beast Pirates were lawless, but they valued their lives very much. They wouldn’t risk their lives like Lin Yi even if they were beaten to death …
Under the cover of the sea fog, the giant treasured ship galloped at its maximum speed for two hours. Everyone on the ship was also on tenterhooks for two hours, especially the helmsman who was most proficient in Maritime Affairs. He was so scared that he was numb.
A layman would just be watching the show-they’d probably just find it amazing, but to a practitioner like him, Lin Yi’s actions were completely subverting his entire world view! He’d been driving in the fog for two hours, and nothing happened to him-there was actually a way to drive a treasure ship like this?
After a few more moments, the view before him suddenly brightened up. The visibility that had been a mere ten Zhang suddenly increased to several thousand Zhang, and it was rapidly increasing. The heavy sea Fog quickly disappeared without a trace, and the scene before him once more became an endless blue sky and white clouds.
“Alright, I’ll leave the rest to you.” Only then did Lin Yi signal the helmsman to take over, and the crowd erupted in cheers. Everyone thought that they’d be skinned alive if not dead this time, but they didn’t expect Lin Yi to just do this and pass it without any trouble!
“Little Junior Brother, you’re amazing!” Shangguan LAN ‘er grabbed Lin Yi’s arm and said happily, dancing with the little Curly Bear. The people around them quickly made way for her. This little thing was still holding a pair of giant scissors in his hand, so they couldn’t let it cut their manhood.
“Other things aside, this kid does have his own set of moves.” In the corner, lingchong and Zhaoming looked at each other, envious and jealous as they watched Lin Yi become the hero of the crowd.
In fact, even LAN Tiefu, who was against Lin Yi at the start, couldn’t help but look at Lin Yi in a different light. He’d never interacted with Lin Yi before, and all he knew about him was from rumors. He thought that Lin Yi was just like MA dang Qiang, the so-called super rookie King, a pretty face with fame more than strength. He didn’t expect Lin Yi to be capable.
“You’re indeed the winner of the escort party in the South continent. You’ve really opened my eyes this time.” Gongyang Jie said faintly as he looked at Lin Yi.
Lin Yi was surprised. Gongyang Jie knew about this? However, after thinking about it carefully, the law enforcement Hall under this fellow was not only the law enforcement agency of the North Island’s three pavilions, but also an Intelligence Agency. Something that even Shangguan Tianhua knew about would naturally not be a secret in his eyes.
“Hall Master Gongyang, you’re too kind. It’s just a small trick, not worth mentioning.” Lin Yi said with a humble smile.
Gongyang Jie didn’t say anything else. After exchanging a glance with LAN Tiefu, they both disappeared into the crowd. Since the crisis was over, they should continue to protect Shangguan LAN ‘er in secret. They couldn’t just stand there and do nothing.
They didn’t talk for seven days, and the ship finally arrived at the dock. It was two days late because Lin Yi took a big detour, but it was still better than being trapped in the fog, or the spirit beast Pirates.
It was only two days late anyway. Ning Xuefei’s birthday party was in three days, so it didn’t matter.
The arrival of the giant treasure ship caused the originally busy West Island Pier to become even more lively. The pier was bustling with people, and almost everyone nearby had squeezed over to watch the show.
Lin Yi and Shangguan LAN ‘er led the way out of the ship, while the rest of the people lined up according to their status. Gongyang Jie and LAN Tiefu were the only ones who disappeared, as they wouldn’t show their faces in public.
“Hello, miss Shangguan. I’m Feng Lu, the special envoy for this reception. I’m here under the orders of the island master to wait for the distinguished guests from the North Island. You’ve had a hard journey.” A woman from the crowd came up and greeted.
Lin Yi sized the woman up. She had the face of a young woman, but her looks were average, as if she didn’t go through any cosmetic changes. What shocked him was that this Feng Lu didn’t give off the aura of a master, but she was a master of the xuansheng stage!
It seemed that the West Island was filled with experts! (To be continued.) ”
