********************************
At the same time, in a remote location across the surface of the Aman River.
Xi Lei’s Duke Ming suddenly felt cold shivers travel from his spine down to his thighs.
“Young Lord, you’re shivering.” Because Luo Yun was gripping Feng Ming’s hands, he was the first to notice his shivering body.
His tone, however, no longer was ridiculing or disdainful as it had been in the past.
He did not have the ability to mock Feng Ming after this night. The powerful Xiao Family, who for 100 years celebrated their famous ability to deter enemies, was the target of bitter defeat.
Floating on the Aman River, they were overwhelmed by the sound of cold wind and the burning of flames. Still burning, while emitting bright light and producing red, hot flames, was the Xiao Family ship’s famous fleet sailing banner.
After the first round of intense fighting, their bodies reeked of blood and their physical strength completely drained.
From the direction of the mysterious enemy ship, the sound of an unusual horn could be heard. It was as if a lingering ghost was howling towards the night sky. Once the terrifying sound of the horn ceased, the whole river became deathly quiet and still.
At this moment, if a new attack were to occur, it would surely lead to the whole army being destroyed.
The shadow of death descended heavily on the hearts of those present.
The atmosphere seemed to be frozen, everything surrounded by a deathly stillness that made the situation all the more hateful. The amount of wood scraps in the water lessened and the impact made by the crashing ship had significantly reduced, but the situation remained bad. The sails of the 6th big ship, where Tong Kingdom’s Royal Uncle was, caught on fire with flames that were quickly spreading. Wood scraps violently crashed towards the bottom of the ship, creating holes. Water from the river rushed into the bottom cabins through the holes causing the ship to tilt on its side.
Their faces were all white as sheets for they already lost control of the fleet’s helms. Don’t even mention the possibility of dealing with half of the pirate ships when even coping with one common warship was a difficult task to accomplish without paying a hefty price.
“Where did all these pirates actually come from?” Feng Ming’s question attracted the attention of the men on board. These were all men who had faced death calmly without even a flinch. Standing at the forefront of the ship, they all stared bewilderingly upstream in the direction of the enemy’s main ship.
Rong Hu abandoned the arrows, returned his sword to his hand, and went to stand beside Feng Ming. He stared deeply at the source of their incoming crisis. “They’re strong. I fear that they may be the infamous pirates of Dan Lin, known for their fierceness and cruelty.”
Feng Ming let out a sharp breath.
This time, they may actually die in an unjust way.
He had only thought the biggest issue he may face during his journey was encountering the Kingdom of Li’s lunatic king. If that were the case, he could just use his father’s name to save himself.
Who would have thought that pirates would attack them at the Aman River, stopping them from moving any further? No matter how much Feng Ming racked his brain, he could not understand how he could have offend so many people.
Recalling Zi Yan, Feng Ming’s heart skipped a beat.
In order to solve his future troubles and open up a path to transport the sand, Feng Ming first had to deal with Dan Lin’s pirates.
Currently, Dan Lin’s pirates are attacking our Xiao Family’s ships with no apparent reason. Don’t tell me…
“Zi Yan!” Feng Ming cried out, feeling something was wrong, he looked at Rong Hu.
