Just at this moment, a group of pirates riding mutated beasts galloped on the surface of the sea. They rode the water from afar, kicking up huge waves. Then, they appeared as fast as lightning and blocked the two's path.
Pirate robberies happened every day in the Black Sea. It was not strange at all.
On the reef, Xiao Chen thought, This group of pirates is pretty strong. They should be able to force out some of Yue Bingyun's true strength.
However, the situation did not develop as Xiao Chen expected.
When the Thunder Fire Sovereign's descendant, Xia Luo, saw this group of pirates riding mutated beasts, he rejoiced in his heart. He had been worrying about not having a chance to show off. This group of pirates really came at the right time.
Hiding the joy in his heart, Xia Luo put on a furious expression and said, "Bunch of trash! Quickly scram. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless."
"Haha! Where did this Bai Face come from? Are you trying to be a hero saving a damsel in distress? Kneel and beg for mercy, and we can spare your life. However, you have to leave this woman behind. "
"That's right. We are not interested in men. If you want to live, then scram."
The group of pirates guffawed, ignoring Xia Luo's words. They all looked at Yue Bingyun with glowing eyes.
In their eyes, Yue Bingyun was like a fairy. Her figure was exquisite and exquisite. She had an extraordinary air, and her skin was like rosy clouds. Her beautiful eyes were like limpid autumn waters, giving her a boundless charm.
The more the mighty pirate leader looked at Yue Bingyun, the more tempted he became. Eventually, he could not help roaring, "Kill this Bai Face and snatch this woman back."
Xia Luo stepped forward and blocked Yue Bingyun. He said, "Bingyun, leave these pieces of trash to me. Don't dirty your hands."
Right after Xia Luo spoke, he formed hand seals and quickly threw a palm strike. Clumps of profound flame imprints flew into the bodies of the charging pirates.
The profound flame imprints seemed to be incorporeal. In an instant, they entered the bodies of these pirates. No matter how they tried to block them, it was useless.
These pirates found this strange. However, after they circulated their energies and discovered that there were no major problems, they continued charging over with sinister smiles.
"Acting all mysterious. Watch this old man tear you apart!"
Dozens of pirates leaped into the air and charged towards him. If he was surrounded, he would be in big trouble.
Xia Luo smiled coldly and said, "Reckless! You don't even know my Xia Clan's Thunder Fire Mark? Die!"
With a loud shout, Xia Luo pointed a finger at the sky. A bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, followed by the sound of thunder.
The instant the thunder boomed, the body of the martialist who had been imprinted by the fire seal instantly turned red. Then, there was a loud explosion. His body was like gunpowder, exploding until there was nothing left of his flesh and blood. It was a tragic sight.
The rumbling thunder was like the fuse of dynamite. In an instant, more than half of the pirates surrounding Xia Luo were killed.
The remaining people who did not die were frightened out of their wits. Xia Luo forced them to retreat repeatedly in a sorry state.
The pirate leader on the exotic beast cried out inwardly. He hurriedly said, "Retreat!"
The many pirates who had long lost the will to fight immediately retreated like a receding tide, disappearing from the duo's vision.
Xia Luo was in high spirits, a pleased smile on his face. He turned his head and asked, "Bingyun, are you alright?"
Yue Bingyun's expression did not change at all. She said politely, "Young Master Xia, it is better to address me as Yue Bingyun. Many thanks for helping out earlier."
Xia Luo's expression turned somewhat awkward. He said, "It's good that you are fine. This journey is very dangerous. Pirates come and go frequently. However, with me around, I can guarantee Miss Yue's safety."
On the reef, Xiao Chen felt somewhat disappointed. If Xia Luo had not made a move, Yue Bingyun would have had to save herself.
Xiao Chen would have been able to unravel the other party's mysterious veil and see how strong she was.
However, this Xia Luo's Martial Technique also piqued Xiao Chen's curiosity. After imbuing the Thunder Fire Mark into the martialist's body with thunder, it was incomparably profound.
After thinking for a while, Xiao Chen gained some understanding of the principles of this Thunder Fire Mark. After he figured it out, he realized that it was not as miraculous as it looked.
The Fire Fire Mark, which looked like it was made of good materials, would shatter the moment it came in contact with a cultivator's protective Quintessence, turning into countless tiny imprints that pierced through the protective Quintessence like air.
After that, the imprints would stick to the cultivator's skin through the pores. Naturally, when one looked into the body, one would not discover anything strange about it.
As for how to use thunder and lightning to gather these scattered imprints and explode them, one could only figure it out after reading the secret manual for the Thunder Fire Mark. Just by observing it, one could only get a rough idea.
However, for Xiao Chen to be able to see this far, he already had a way to break this Thunder Fire Mark.
This trip to the Black Sea had given Xiao Chen many pleasant surprises. This trip had not been in vain.
Be it the World Hunt of that pirate leader or this Xia Luo's Thunder Fire Mark, they were all unique Martial Techniques that broadened his horizons.
"Hey, Miss Yue, can we go now?"
After dealing with the pirates, Yue Bingyun was not in a rush to leave. She seemed to have made some new discoveries, so Xia Luo asked out of curiosity.
Yue Bingyun seemed to have confirmed something. She smiled and said, "There's no rush. I met a friend. Let's wait for him."
"Friend? Where is he? Why don't I see him? "
An anxious expression flashed in Xia Luo's eyes as he looked around. However, he did not discover Xiao Chen, who was fifty kilometers away. He did not know who Yue Bingyun was referring to.
Yue Bingyun smiled faintly. Then, she turned her head and spoke in sign language.
"Young Master Xiao, how much longer are you going to keep watching?"
This stunned Xiao Chen, who had been observing from the reef. Even from fifty kilometers away, Yue Bingyun had discovered his presence.
"What sharp senses! You are much stronger than this Xia Luo." Xiao Chen muttered to himself. He guessed that Yue Bingyun must have sensed him when he used his Spiritual Sense to scan the other party.
Since he had already been discovered, there was no need to continue hiding. Xiao Chen pushed off the water and executed Thunder Dragon Steps.
Three lightning dragons swam in the water. Four lightning dragons danced at the sides, and three circled above Xiao Chen's head.
The Thunder Dragon Steps, modified from the Blue Dragon Cloud Soaring Art, was mighty and more suitable for Xiao Chen. He could use it as he pleased. In combat, it was even more compatible with his Martial Techniques.
After about seven minutes, Xiao Chen easily arrived fifty kilometers away. He pushed off the water, and ten lightning dragons entered his body.
The mighty aura instantly vanished, demonstrating Xiao Chen's strong control over the Thunder Dragon Steps. He could use it as he pleased, advancing and retreating with a thought.
Xiao Chen slowly landed beside Yue Bingyun. When he landed, he did not cause any splash. He said calmly, "This is a little unexpected. Unexpectedly, I ran into Miss Yue here."
"Haha! Why is it that only you are allowed to come to the Black Sea for experiential training but not me? I also have the cultivation of the Blue Robed Emperor," Yue Bingyun said softly with a smile.
"Young Master Xia, let me introduce you. This is my friend, Mo Yun, from the Kunlun Continent."
Mo Yun?
Xiao Chen wondered why Yue Bingyun helped him hide his identity. However, this was fine. Although not many people knew about the Blue Dragon King in the Black Sea, he could use an alias to save himself some trouble.
Xiao Chen did not deny it, taking it as acquiescence.
Xia Luo smiled straightforwardly. After greeting Xiao Chen, he asked, "I wonder, where is Brother Mo's destination?"
"Black Water City," Xiao Chen answered honestly.
Xia Luo's expression changed, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes. Then, he smiled strangely and said, "Is that so? Brother Mo, think carefully and see if you remembered wrong."
This was already a clear threat, telling Xiao Chen to change his itinerary and not disturb his time with Yue Bingyun.
Crazy! Xiao Chen cursed in his heart. Then, he looked at the other party indifferently and said, "I know better than you whether I remembered wrong or not. There is no need for Brother Xia to worry."
When Xia Luo heard this, his expression turned exceptionally sullen. Unexpectedly, this fellow did not understand his clear hint.
Yue Bingyun smiled and said, "In that case, it looks like I can travel with Young Master Mo on this trip to Black Water City."
As Yue Bingyun spoke, she completely ignored Xia Luo, upsetting the other party.
Black Water City Island was the core island of the Black Water Sea. It was astonishingly vast, so vast that it could no longer be simply called an island.
Even the Blue Robed Emperor would have to spend a lot of time to explore every place.
Of course, this was just to explore every place. If one wanted to study it seriously, even a hundred years would not be enough.
The terrain of the island was extremely complicated. There were mountains, plains, deserts, snowy lands, and all sorts of other landforms. The ruins of the Ancient Era could be found everywhere, attracting many experts to adventure there.
Historically, the many islands of the Black Sea had once been a complete continent. It had its own glorious period, with many heroes, overlords, powerful Sovereigns, and legendary Martial Emperors.
Stars twinkled, looking resplendent and glorious.
However, as time passed, after the continent shattered, very few people remembered that period of history.
Xiao Chen's group of three headed for Black Water City did not move very fast. The main reason was that Xiao Chen and Yue Bingyun wanted to gain experiential training, to see what was different about the Black Sea cultivators.
After walking for half a month, the group saw the outline of Black Water Island. In this half a month, Xiao Chen had had enough of the legendary Thunder Fire Sovereign's descendant, Xia Luo.
Xia Luo felt that he would definitely be able to recreate the Thunder Fire Sovereign's glorious feat one day, so he looked down on Xiao Chen from the bottom of his heart.
Furthermore, Xiao Chen "did not know how to adapt to circumstances," ruining his chance to be alone with Yue Bingyun. This made Xia Luo feel even more upset and depressed.
If not for Yue Bingyun being present, Xia Luo would have attacked Xiao Chen long ago to teach him a lesson.
"There is a small town in front. We can rest there for the night and rush to Black Water City at daybreak. My Xia Clan is rather famous in Black Water City. When we get to the city, I can introduce Miss Yue to the famous Blue Robed Emperor experts of Black Water City. "
As Xia Luo said this, he glanced at Xiao Chen casually, putting on an aloof air.
Xiao Chen felt speechless. Femme fatale. This Xia Luo looked like someone with some strength and was not stupid. However, after getting infatuated with Yue Bingyun, it was like water got into his head.
Xia Luo's actions were all childish. For example, he started to flaunt his clan. This made Xiao Chen feel that it was ridiculous.
