"Don't wait. Your mother is fine. Don't worry."
The Second Duke saw Du Feng's concerns and patted him on the shoulder. Liu Fei was indeed under house arrest by the Queen. Fortunately, Du Zhanfei was still in seclusion. As long as the monarch was alive, the old woman would not dare to do anything to Liu Fei. Du Feng's trip to the Qingyang Sect was not only related to his own future, but also the safety of Liu Fei, the Second Duke, and even the entire Rong Tian Nation.
"Rise!"
After everyone was on the flying boat, Elder Tang made a hand sign. The huge boat slowly rose and moved further away from the ground. Looking at the shrinking people on the ground, Du Feng calmed himself down and began to practice.
His Cultivation was stuck at the very special Body Tempering Stage 10. He needed to adjust his state and find an opportunity to break through to the Qi Martial Realm.
"Seventh Brother, look, we are on the clouds."
It was Princess Yu 'er's first time on a flying boat. It was very novel. Du Feng had already been on a flying boat in his previous life, so he was naturally not interested in a flying boat.
"Sister Yu 'er, let me accompany you."
In the past, Yuwen Qingjin used to call Yu 'er Princess Yu' er. After all, she was a descendant of the royal family. However, since they had left the Rong Tian Nation, they would all be fellow disciples of the Qingyun Sect in the future. There was naturally no such difference in status.
"Sit next to me. The boat will shake when we enter the astral wind layer."
Princess Yu 'er did not want to talk to Yuwen Qingjin, but she was too embarrassed to refuse. Besides, he was so strong and fierce. As a girl, she could not help but feel a little scared. At that moment, Du Feng patted the board next to him and asked her to sit.
"A seven-foot man can't even stand steadily. Who is as weak as you? Sister Yu 'er will naturally be protected by me."
Yuwen Qingjin said and wanted to pull Princess Yu 'er's arm, but the boat began to shake violently. At that moment, they were close to ten thousand meters in the air. The astral wind suddenly increased, blowing people around. This was a question that Elder Tang had purposely set up for them. He wanted to see everyone's courage and reaction speed.
"Ah!"
As soon as Yu Wenqing finished boasting, his body was suddenly thrown horizontally. In his panic, he wanted to grab onto something, but he happened to be in the middle of the ship and had nothing to grab onto. Instead, it was the students at the edges who could grab onto the sides of the ship to stabilize themselves.
Princess Yu'er sat beside Du Feng, holding his arm to steady herself. He looked at Yuwen Qingjin worriedly. After all, they were from the same country. If he really fell like this, it would be too tragic.
"Hi!"
Yuwen Qingjin roared, and his body suddenly dropped down. With both legs in a horse stance, the steward steadied his body. Just then, there was a scream accompanied by a pink figure. Zheng Xiaohui couldn't control herself and fell over.
Oh no! Yuwen Qingjin had only just stabilized himself. How could he have the time to care about others? He bent over and lowered his head to let her pass. After all, Zheng Xiaohui's life and death had nothing to do with him.
This was a height of ten thousand meters. If Zheng Xiaohui were to fall like this, Even if she had a Flower Butterfly Warbeast, with her current Cultivation, she could only stay in the air for a few breaths. Such a strong wind would instantly exhaust her Primordial Qi. What followed would be a long process of falling. She would probably be scared to death before she fell to her death. What's going on? Is Elder Tang not going to do anything?
Du Feng patted Princess Yu'er's shoulder and suddenly rushed out. He grabbed Zheng Xiaohui's arm in mid-air and brought her back to sit beside Princess Yu'er. The whole process was like a rabbit falling like a magpie falling like a rabbit falling like a magpie falling like a rabbit.
This … Zheng Xiaohui blushed slightly and held onto Du Feng's arm shyly. After all, they weren't familiar with each other. However, the ship shook again. She was so scared that she couldn't care less about her shyness. She quickly held onto Du Feng's arm tightly, afraid that she would be thrown away again.
Although she was young and not tall, her chest was already well developed. Being held tightly by her arm, it was Du Feng who felt embarrassed.
"Hi! Hi! Hi! "
As the wind grew stronger, Yu Wenqing's horse stance became lower and lower. He kept exerting force to stabilize his body. His center of gravity dropped lower and lower. His butt was about to sit on the ship's deck. Then, he looked at Du Feng who was sitting cross-legged. Two beauties, one big and one small, were holding onto his arm tightly.
There was one person who was standing straight and relaxed in the wind. This person was the Thirteenth Prince who owned the Lightning Tiger. The Heavenly Domain Thunder and Wind Four Directions were indeed powerful. His ability to control the wind was something that those who only knew how to use brute force could not understand.
"Save me! Your Highness, save me! "
A young boy who looked the same age clung to the edge of the ship. As the wind grew stronger, he could not hold on any longer. At this moment, he couldn't care less about his face. He cried and begged the Thirteenth Prince to save his life.
The Thirteenth Prince stood straight in the wind, letting his clothes flutter in the wind. He didn't even look at him.
"Seventh Brother, can you save him?"
The little boy came from the same city as Zheng Xiaohui. Seeing that he was about to fall, she felt sad. She imitated Countess Yu 'er and addressed Du Feng as Seventh Brother.
"Xiaohui, remember, don't do things that are beyond your capabilities. Even if I didn't save you just now, Elder Tang would have saved you. Even if I wanted to save him now, Elder Tang wouldn't allow him to live. "Du Feng sighed and shook his head after saying this.
"Ah!"
With a scream, the little boy finally couldn't hold on to the edge of the ship and fell. Then, a protective shield suddenly rose from the hull. It was as if the entire flying ship was placed in a giant bubble, no longer affected by the wind. The hull was very stable. No matter how strong the wind blew, it was like the calm surface of a lake.
It was only now that Zheng Xiaohui understood what Du Feng meant. Elder Tang had a way to save them from the beginning. The reason why he didn't make a move was because he wanted to see someone die. If Du Feng had really taken the risk to save the little boy, the flying ship might have suddenly accelerated. If that happened, the little boy wouldn't have been the only one to die.
All the disciples who were brought back had to participate in the sect's competition. If the elimination rate was too high, Elder Tang would lose face. Although the number of disciples in this batch was small, the overall standard was not bad. In previous batches, the protective shield would not rise unless eight or ten people fell to their deaths.
