"Sigh!"
Du Feng sighed and shook his head. He wasn't feeling sorry for the explorer's death, but he felt that the explorer had used the Meteor Butterfly Sword Technique blindly. The sword was like a meteor, the body was like a colorful butterfly. It was all about flexibility and not about the speed of the charge. No matter how fast the charge was, it would be useless against a strong opponent.
The anchor thrower didn't expose any Cultivation from the start. He was probably a pure body cultivator or a demonic race. Those barbarians that didn't rely on qi Cultivation and used their physical strength to fight. The explorers who had just died were all at the Guru Realm. Obviously, they had been used as lab rats.
A majority of the explorers that boarded the Winter Thunder were Master Realm Cultivation. They were hoping for a sea voyage to have a drastic change in their fate. Origin Realm experts were usually well-prepared and had a higher chance of survival in the first half of the journey.
There were some peak stage Origin Realm ninth level Origin Realm experts who already had the conditions to breakthrough to the Void Sea Realm, but they intentionally suppressed their Cultivation. They might have the triangular token in their hands and were waiting to breakthrough after entering the Three Mountains Hidden Domain. By then, they would be able to slaughter everyone and snatch away all the treasures.
"You, clean up the deck."
Just as Du Feng was about to return to his room, he suddenly heard someone shouting at him.
"Are you sure it's me?"
He wasn't too sure because those who were picking on him were all Master Realm explorers. The strength he displayed was at the seventh level of the Origin Realm. Among the entire team of explorers, they were considered to be above average. Furthermore, after the commotion he caused in the East Harbor City, most people already knew about Captain Du's story.
"That's right, it's you. Clean up this place, or else you will be the next one to be fed to the fishmen."
That guard stayed on the ship for a long time and might not know Du Feng. He was also an Origin Realm Cultivation and felt that Du Feng wasn't anything special. Besides, the deck was filled with their guards. How could they possibly rebel?
"Do I need to clean up all the trash?"
Du Feng stopped and turned to ask the guard.
"That's right. Clean up all the trash, not even a strand of hair."
The guard was just testing the waters. After all, Du Feng's Cultivation Level wasn't low. If Du Feng didn't listen, he couldn't use force. After all, he was just an ordinary guard, not a guard captain. If it was just a personal conflict, his colleagues might not necessarily help him. Now that he saw Du Feng take the initiative to ask, he felt that he had pinched a soft persimmon and grinned proudly.
"Alright!"
Du Feng agreed and actually started cleaning. First, he shot out a water column. The water column slithered along the deck like a snake, sweeping up the dirty blood and broken internal organs left by the anchors. After a while, the deck was cleaned up as if nothing had happened.
"Hmm, you've cleaned it up pretty well. Hurry up and throw all the filth out. Don't be an eyesore here."
After the water column swept up the filth, it was still circling on the deck. The originally transparent water column had turned dark red due to the tainted blood. It twisted and turned like a blood-red python.
"Didn't you say to clean up all the trash, not even a strand of hair?"
Du Feng still didn't throw the water column into the sea. Instead, he let it continue to swim on the deck. This ability to control water wasn't ordinary. Even many Origin Realm martial artists couldn't do it.
"That's right. Even a strand of hair will be thrown to feed the fishes."
The guard placed his hands on his waist proudly. Actually, it was just a threat. Who could tell if there was a strand of hair? He didn't expect this explorer to be so timid and actually look for a strand of hair. Since he was willing to clean, then let him do it for a while longer.
"Don't worry. I'll clean it up soon."
The water column slithered across the deck like a blood-red python and soon reached the guard. It was as if it had come alive and even opened its mouth.
"Master guard, don't move. The strand of hair is on you."
Du Feng suddenly exclaimed, as if he had lost control of the spell. The dark red water column really did turn into a blood-red python, coiling around the guard's leg. Before he could react, it opened its mouth and bit down. Not too much, not too little, just enough to swallow the entire head.
"Evil creature, don't you dare run!"
Du Feng quickly rushed up, as if he wanted to stop the blood python from harming the guard. However, after the blood-colored python bit the guard's head, it actually flipped over and fell into the vast sea with him. There was already dirty blood and broken internal organs. Now that the guard's head was bitten open, the smell of blood was especially strong. A group of Metal-Toothed Pomfrets that were following the Winter Thunder pounced on the guard. In just a breath's time, the guard was bitten until only white bones were left.
"Tsk tsk tsk … the trash should be cleaned up now."
Du Feng didn't care about the guard's death. Instead, he lowered his head and carefully examined the deck. After making sure there were no dirty things, he raised his head and smiled at everyone.
"Hiss …"
The people who stayed on the deck to watch the show all gasped. This person looked honest and cowardly, but they didn't expect him to be so ruthless. It turned out that the trash he said he was going to clean up was the guard who made a fuss. Now that the Winter Thunder was in the sea, he didn't intend to stay on after killing the guard. If he was kicked off the ship now, he wouldn't even have a place to stand.
"What are you looking at? Go back to work."
The guards were all waiting for the captain's order. As soon as the captain gave the order, they would pounce to avenge the dead guard. But the strange thing was that the captain actually ordered them to be more obedient.
Du Feng tidied up his clothes and put away the waist tag that he accidentally revealed. He had wanted to keep a low profile, but he didn't expect that someone would come looking for trouble on the first day. As the captain of the city guard, it was fine to kill a guard who dared to talk back to him. Besides, he had caused such a ruckus in East Port City that it was impossible that no one knew about it.
At that time, even the chief captain, Rong Tianyi, was helping Du Feng openly and secretly. The captain of the guards instantly realized what was going on. Not only did he not hold Du Feng responsible, but he also told the other guards to go back to work. Even if he wanted to deal with Du Feng, he would have to wait until they reached the deep sea. If they fought now, unless the captain and the deputy captain intervened, the guards and sailors would definitely be at a disadvantage.
"Brother Du, you're really good. We're at sea."
