Chapter 654 - The Mole Making Their Move
Chapter 654: The Mole Making Their Move
Naturally, experts who were only half a step into the Divine Transformation Realm never received that kind of treatment. However, their names were still recording on a special list so they wouldn’t be missed.
One of the reasons why the Blood Wolf Pirate could be carefree in the nearby seas for so many years was because of their strength.
Otherwise, the Blood Wolf Pirate would have been wiped out long ago. Among the tens of millions of people in the nearby coastal cities, many of them wanted to annihilate the people from the Blood Wolf Pirate.
Huang Zhao looked at Zhang Qifeng and slowly said, “You know it’s me, yet you’re still not retreating and getting out of here!”
Zhang Qifeng had put him under immense pressure. That kind of unscrupulous and contemptuous look in his eyes obviously indicated that even those who were half a step in the Divine Transformation Realm were nothing to him.
Zhang Qifeng grimly smiled and said, “Hahahahahaha, you are still alive. Do you think that I am afraid of you? None of you will be able to escape today. I heard that the longevity grass is on your ship. If you hand it over right now, maybe I’ll grant you a swift and painless death!”
The expression on both Huang Zhao and Xu Tianying’s faces changed upon hearing this.
How did Zhang Qifeng know that there was longevity grass on board?
This time, it could be said that their journey out to sea had been very secretive. They had not told anyone at all. Even if outsiders knew that they had gone out to sea, it was impossible to know that they were looking for the longevity grass.
The longevity grass itself was very rare. Even if its existence was known somewhere, someone would’ve taken it a long time ago.
This was because the longevity grass was known as one of the main medicinal materials for refining the longevity alkahestry pill.
The Xu family had accidentally found an everlasting kind of grass while they were trading at sea.
This was kept a secret among members of the Xu family. How did Zhang Qifeng know about it?
Xu Tianying’s face became even uglier. At first, she thought she was merely unfortunate to have met the Blood Wolf Pirate. Now, it seemed that it was not bad luck at all; someone on her ship turned out to be a spy.
Someone had sold their information and tried to get rid of them with the help of the Blood Wolf Pirate.
Xu Tianying instantly thought of the rumors that had been circulating among the various cities in coastal areas. One major reason why the Blood Wolf Pirate could not be wiped out was that many people had wanted to use them to root out those who were too inconvenient to eradicate.
It was just that this rumor had not been confirmed before. Now, she could finally confirm that the rumors were true. Some people saw the Blood Wolf Pirate as a group of criminals who specialized in doing things that were inconvenient for others to do.
What she found even harder to accept was that, upon thinking about the matter further, the mole had to have been someone in their family. Even when their family was in such a shaky position, someone was still willing to betray them.
“It seems that there is no room for negotiation. That means all we can do now is fight!”
Huang Zhao looked at Zhang Qifeng coldly. He no longer had any way to retreat, considering that Zhang Qifeng and the Blood Wolf Pirate refused to let them go.
Boom!
Two experts who were half a step in the Divine Transformation Realm unleashed their own terrifying force. It was like two massive winds colliding in the air.
It set off a frenzy that even shook the ships.
The confrontation began instantly. Zhang Qifeng was the supreme master of the fist’s will with a pair of iron fists, while Huang Zhao was good with using ice magic. He almost froze the sea with a wave of ice and snow all over the sky.
On the other hand, Zhang Qifeng constantly bombarded the sky with a pair of iron fists, hitting the ice and snow.
The confrontation between the two experts had attracted everyone’s attention almost instantly. However, to the Xu family’s dismay, the outcome of the confrontation was practically determined from the very beginning.
Being constantly attacked by Zhang Qifeng, Huang Zhao kept retreating. There was no way for him to fight back at all. After a while of being hit with several punches, Huang Zhao spat out fresh blood from his mouth.
“Hahahaha! I didn’t expect you to be seriously injured from that, old man! It just so happens that I can kill you more easily!”
At that moment, Zhang Qifeng laughed. To his surprise, he had noticed that Huang Zhao was weak. Huang Zhao could no longer bear the attacks before Zhang Qifeng could even finish.
There was only one reason for this: Huang Zhao was injured.
It wasn’t even that hard to determine how he sustained such an injury. It happened during the process of looking for the longevity grass.
“Even heaven is helping me. They want to destroy you as well!”
After discovering Huang Zhao’s weakness, Zhang Qifeng immediately threw out a pair of iron fists without mercy.
Zhang Qifeng wanted to kill Huang Zhao while he was injured!
Uncle Chang quickly said, “This is bad. Young lady, take the longevity grass and leave immediately. Otherwise, the Xu family will be finished!”
At that moment, he realized that their previous plan was now useless when Zhang Qifeng did not give them any room to escape.
Now that Huang Zhao had also been dragged into it, the original plan was no longer possible.
Suddenly, a figure then swept onto the ship.
With a wave of his hand, he made the guards of the Xu family around them fly and fall directly into the endless sea.
The figure was a hooded man who said in a low voice, “It’s too late to leave now!”
Xu Tianying immediately responded, “It’s you!”
Although she could not see the person’s face clearly in the dark, it was impossible for her to forget the man’s voice.
“Zhang Tianmian!” Uncle Chang suddenly revealed the figure’s identity.
The man lowered his hood, no longer hiding his face. was no longer hiding as he put the hood down. He was a tall middle-aged man with a square face who stood upright.
“You! How could you betray the Xu family?!” Xu Tianying immediately responded. This was because the man in front of her was the Xu family’s worshippers, specifically worshipping Xu Tianying’s cousin.
He was also an expert who was half a step in the Divine Transformation Realm!
Naturally, the mole in the Xu family was revealed the second that he appeared.
It was her cousin, Xu Tianzhi.
Zhang Tianmian slowly said, “I’m not betraying you, I’m trying to save the Xu family! Did you guys genuinely think that no one would know what you guys are thinking? Can the longevity grass truly make the person who is willing to make the Xu family take risks by fighting against Yun Longzhai help the Xu family? You guys are so naive!”
“The only way to save the Xu family is to die! The longevity grass belongs to Young Master Tianzhi!” Zhang Tianmian hummed coldly. As he waved his hand, a qi-condensed hand was suddenly formed.
This hand directly grabbed at Xu Tianying. Uncle Chang, who was in front of Xu Tianying, tried to stop the attack, but he was immediately sent flying by the hand. Once he crashed on the deck, he kept coughing up blood.
He could not stop the attack even a little!
This big hand did not slow down as it continued to head towards Xu Tianying.
Suddenly, a bolt of electricity fell from the sky and shattered the big hand.
