Hu Xian 'er looked at Hu Ding, then she smiled faintly and said, "Eighteenth Uncle, you've worked hard this time. Did you encounter any trouble?"
Hu Ding shook his head and said, "Not really. Other people don't know about the Little Crane Grass. Naturally, there wouldn't be any trouble. Although the Liu Family knows about the Little Crane Grass, they wouldn't reveal it. Therefore, this information is still a secret. However, we still need to be careful."
Hu Xian 'er nodded, then she turned to Hu Quan and said, "Big Brother Hu Quan, let's set sail. We'll return home as soon as possible. Then we can rest assured." Hu Quan nodded, then he immediately commanded the people to set sail.
Hu Xian 'er turned to Hu Ding and said, "Eighteenth Uncle, you should take a rest. You've worked hard along the way. Now that we're on the ship, as long as no one gets on board, there shouldn't be any problems."
Hu Ding nodded, then he turned his head to look at the Little Crane Grass. Then he looked at the Little Crane Grass's Grass Soul. Then he sighed and said, "This kid is an anomaly. I only hope that he'll be successful in the future."
Although Hu Ding had been secretly protecting the Little Crane Grass these past few days, he still couldn't keep an eye on the Little Crane Grass all the time. Moreover, besides the time when the Little Crane Grass showed his talent in front of Hu Xian 'er, he didn't show it anywhere else. Because of this, Hu Ding didn't know about the Little Crane Grass's talent. He only knew that the child was very smart, but he didn't know about the Little Crane Grass's talent as a Plant Master.
Hu Xian 'er looked at Hu Ding and knew what he was thinking. She smiled faintly and said, "Eighteenth Uncle, you can rest assured. The Little Crane Grass's talent is absolutely top-notch."
Hu Ding nodded, then he turned around and entered the cabin. The Little Crane Grass didn't care too much, he was still standing on the deck. Although he didn't understand all of Hu Ding's words, he still understood some of it. He secretly vowed in his heart that he must learn this skill.
Although Hu Ding boarded the ship, there weren't any changes. Hu Ding spent a lot of time in his cabin and didn't come out. Even if he came out, it was impossible for him to find a seven-year-old child to chat with. Moreover, Little Crane Grass had been studying hard these past few days. Even if he wanted to chat with Little Crane Grass, he couldn't find her. Because of this, the ship returned to its peaceful state.
After another three days, they would arrive at Lingshan City in about five days. The ship was sailing on the river, and the journey was smooth. However, Hu Quan's expression changed slightly. After a while, Hu Quan's expression changed completely. He immediately shouted, "Everyone, be on guard. Women, return to the cabins and distribute the weapons." Following Hu Quan's words, everyone on the ship was alarmed. The women on the ship all entered the cabin, while the men all took their weapons. Their expressions also changed.
At this time, Hu Ding also came out of the cabin. He looked at Hu Quan and said, "Quan, what's going on? Why are we distributing the weapons? "
Hu Quan cupped his fist towards Hu Dingyi and said, "Eighteenth Lord, it's been almost two hours since this morning. However, we still haven't met a single boat on this river. This is very abnormal. This is the Wu Ling River, one of the busiest waterways in the Saber Spirit Country. Not meeting a single boat on this river for almost two hours is very abnormal. Unless someone is blocking the boats on both sides of the river. If that's the case, then things will be troublesome."
Hearing Hu Quan's words, Hu Ding smiled faintly. Then he nodded and said, "Alright, be careful." After he said that, he walked to the bow of the ship and stood there quietly.
At this time, Hu Xian 'er also came out of the cabin. She also heard Hu Quan's words, so she didn't say anything. She just looked at Hu Ding and said, "Eighteenth Uncle, do you want to release the Green Hummingbirds?"
Hu Ding shook his head and said, "Not now. Alright, you don't need to worry. Go back to the cabin and take care of yourself as well as that kid." Hu Xian 'er nodded, then she turned around and left.
Although Hu Xian 'er was also a Plant Master, what she learned was different from Hu Ding. Hu Ding learned how to use plants to fight while she learned how to treat people. Because of this, she didn't have any fighting strength. At this time, she would only be a burden if she stayed on the deck.
Little Crane Grass also heard the movements outside. Upon hearing this, he couldn't help but stare. Then his expression changed. He couldn't help but think about his experience on the Liu Clan's ship. This made his expression unsightly.
At this time, someone knocked on the door. Before Little Crane Grass could open the door, the door was pushed open. Ling 'er walked in and didn't say anything as she pulled Little Crane Grass outside.
Little Crane Grass was confused by Ling 'er's actions. He asked, "Sister Ling' er, where are we going? Did something happen? "
Ling 'er replied, "Let's go to the Young Miss' room. The Young Miss wants to watch you study." Ling 'er didn't tell Little Crane Grass that they might be attacked. She was afraid of scaring Little Crane Grass.
When Little Crane Grass heard this, he didn't struggle and followed Ling 'er to Hu Xian' er's room. Hu Xian 'er was sitting in the room with a nervous expression. This was the first time she encountered this kind of thing. When she was in the family, she was well protected. Later on, she went to the Sovereign Saber Pavilion. The Sovereign Saber Pavilion was very safe. And with her status, no one dared to say a harsh word to her. Therefore, she really didn't experience this kind of thing before. Although Hu Ding was outside, she was still very nervous.
Now that she saw Little Crane Grass, Hu Xian 'er relaxed. It was as if having one more person in the room would give her a sense of security.
After entering the room, Ling 'er let go of Little Crane Grass. Little Crane Grass bowed to Hu Xian' er. Hu Xian 'er nodded and said, "There's something going on outside today. Don't go out. Just stay in my room and read." Little Crane Grass nodded. Then he took out a book from Hu Xian' er's room and started reading.
There were many books in Hu Xian 'er's room. Most of these books introduced various plants. And these books were exactly what Little Crane Grass needed. In the past, the books that Little Crane Grass read were mainly about medicinal herbs. Aside from medicinal herbs, there were very few other plants. However, Hu Xian 'er's books were different. Her books introduced plants. Plants weren't all medicinal herbs. Because of this, Little Crane Grass has been reading books about various plants these days.
Although Little Crane Grass knew that something happened on the ship, he didn't make any preparations this time. The reason why he made those preparations last time was because he felt that it was necessary. But this time, he didn't feel that he needed to make those preparations. Because of this, he didn't make any rash movements.
Hu Xian 'er looked at Little Crane Grass who was seriously reading a book and couldn't help but sigh. She really couldn't understand Little Crane Grass. She knew that with Little Crane Grass's intelligence, it was impossible for him to not know what happened on the ship. In this case, a seven year old child like him didn't panic at all. Instead, he was able to read a book.
Hu Xian 'er immediately thought of the information they received before. It said that Little Crane Grass had already encountered danger on the Wu Ling River. At that time, he relied on his wit to escape. At that time, she was still skeptical. But now, she believed it. Just by looking at Little Crane Grass's calmness, she could tell that he was stronger than her.
She didn't know why, but when she saw Little Crane Grass's calm appearance, Hu Xian 'er also calmed down. She was no longer nervous. She also picked up a book and slowly flipped through it. On the other hand, Ling' er was somewhat restless, but this didn't affect the two.
At this time, Hu Ding was looking ahead. In front of him, a ship was slowly approaching. At the same time, behind their ship was another ship. These two ships weren't smaller than the Hu Clan's ship. Moreover, according to their sailing route, they seemed to want to ram the Hu Clan's ship.
Hu Ding's expression changed. He coldly snorted, then he turned to Hu Quan and said, "Quan 'er, get ready. Those guys want to ram the ship. Do you want to go to the shore?"
Hu Quan shook his head and said, "Eighteenth Master, you don't need to worry. Our Hu Clan's ship is made of ten-thousand-year-old Iron Birch. They want to ram our ship with their ship? What a joke."
Hu Ding nodded, then he said, "You're an expert in fighting on the river. You just need to guard your ship. Leave the rest to me. I want to see who these people are."
As the two spoke, the two ships were getting closer and closer to the Hu Clan's ship. The ship behind them didn't seem to have any intention of slowing down. Although the ship in front was going against the current, there were two rows of large oars on both sides of the ship. They were constantly paddling, so the ship's speed wasn't very slow.
As the three ships slowly approached, Hu Quan and the others could already see the people on the two ships. There were a lot of people on the two ships. Each of them was wearing a pair of shorts, and the ship was covered with a piece of cloth, making it impossible for people to see their faces. They all had weapons in their hands, and each of them had an ominous glint in their eyes.
Hu Quan wasn't afraid, he turned his head and said, "Go to the cabin and tell the women to stabilize the ship." One of the women nodded before she turned around and left. Outsiders didn't know what the Hu Clan's ship was, they only thought that it was a passenger ship. What they didn't know was that the Hu Clan's ship was designed according to the form of a warship. The hull was made of high-quality Iron Birch, which was stronger than steel. Moreover, it was very heavy, making the ship more stable than an ordinary ship. Moreover, there were mechanisms in the cabin. There were several hidden water wheels below the ship. These water wheels could be used in place of oars. When going against the current, the ship could move normally.
Naturally, the water wheels could also play a role in stabilizing the ship. The women on the ship weren't only used for cleaning and cooking, they were also trained. They could be in the cabin and move the water wheels, making the ship more stable. They could even participate in battles when necessary. This was because the ship was equipped with small boats.
Boom! The ship behind hit the Hu Clan's ship. However, the hull of the Hu Clan's ship only shook slightly, it didn't shake too much. Then the ship in front also hit the Hu Clan's ship. However, the Hu Clan's ship was still stable, it didn't look damaged at all. The sturdiness of the Hu Clan's ship was beyond the expectations of the people on the other two ships. They stared for a moment, but then under the command of their leader, they took out their weapons and rushed towards the Hu Clan's ship.
However, before they could even reach the Hu Clan's ship, they were greeted with a rain of arrows. These arrows were all shot with great strength, and they killed several people on the spot. However, those people didn't stop. Instead, they howled and rushed to the Hu Clan's ship. Upon seeing this situation, Hu Quan's expression changed slightly. This was because he knew that those who could face the rain of arrows and still rush forward were people who had seen blood on the battlefield. Such people weren't easy to deal with.
Hu Ding stood at the bow of the ship, looking at the opposite ship. He didn't even look at the people who rushed onto the ship. This was because they were all soul bearers and couldn't cultivate. In front of him, they were just like ants. Hu Ding could sense his true enemy and the enemy on the other side.
The people who rushed towards the Hu Clan's ship seemed to know Hu Ding's strength. Although they were attacking the Hu Clan's ship, none of them dared to approach Hu Ding. It was as if Hu Ding was invisible, he didn't exist at all.
Hu Ding looked at the people who jumped onto the ship, but the people on the opposite ship still didn't show themselves. He couldn't help but coldly snort. Then he waved his hand and a green energy swept out. Therefore, the masked people who were swept by the energy were all sent into the river.
"Hahahaha, you're worthy of being the Hu Clan's Ling Yu. You really have some skills. This old man will meet you today." Then a figure came out of the ship and rushed towards Hu Ding.
Although this person's face was covered, the soul above his head was a ferocious-looking large dog. The large dog stood three feet above the person's head, its eyes were glowing red as it stared at Hu Ding. It seemed like it would pounce and bite Hu Ding at any time.
However, Hu Ding knew that it was impossible for a soul to directly harm a person. Although the large dog looked ferocious, it couldn't really hurt him. However, Hu Ding was able to get a lot of information from the large dog. Beast Soul Masters were different from ordinary Soul Masters. Beast Soul Masters had living souls. For example, if a child had a dog beast soul, then when he was born, the beast soul above his head would also look like a small dog. As the child slowly grew up, the beast soul above his head would also slowly grow. But if the child had been kind to others, then the dog soul above his head would also look cute and harmless. But if the child had been cultivating and killing, then the beast soul would become very ferocious, as if it wanted to devour someone. This was the biggest difference between a Beast Soul Master and other Soul Masters.
There were a lot of Beast Soul Masters in the Soul Realm. Just by looking at this person's soul, Hu Ding really couldn't tell his identity. So when Hu Ding saw this person rushing over, he just coldly snorted and said, "Hiding the head but showing the tail, you're just a dog." Then he waved his hand and shouted, "Ling Yu's Wind." His two hands were like two branches as they went straight towards the person.
That person seemed to know Hu Ding's strength. His body rolled to the side to avoid Hu Ding's move. Then he pounced on Hu Ding like a hungry dog and shouted, "Hungry Dog Pounces." His two hands were like claws as they went straight for Hu Ding.
Hu Ding looked at the opponent's move. His body moved to the side and then he kicked out. One was Old Tree Coiling Roots, which went straight for the opponent's lower body. Both of them moved and jumped into the air. The other was Yellow Dog Piss, which went straight for Hu Ding. The two people exchanged punches and kicks as they fought.
