The sea was calm and tranquil. When He Yiming returned to his original location, he saw a man and a beast floating in the sky and on the sea, staring at each other. He couldn't help but reveal an expression of not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
These two fellows still didn't see eye to eye with each other, just like before.
Coming to the surface of the sea, He Yiming gently stroked the white horse Lei Dian who had already recovered some of its energy. He sighed softly and said, "Lei Dian, this time it's all thanks to you."
He wasn't exaggerating at all. If the White Horse Lightning hadn't made a move, even if the three of them had joined forces, they still wouldn't have been a match for the Yu family's Great Ancestor.
He Yiming and the others wouldn't have been able to contend against a powerhouse at the peak of humanity, even if it was the Yu family's Great Ancestor, who couldn't use the Divine Soldier's Great Ancestor. He Yiming wasn't confident that he could escape from the Yu family's Great Ancestor without the White Horse Lightning as his mount.
After all, a powerhouse at the peak of humanity was much faster than a Five Qi Supreme Venerable.
The White Horse Lightning neighed softly. Although a faint electric glow flickered on its body from time to time, the danger it gave off wasn't as frightening as it had been at the beginning.
Of course, this wasn't because the White Horse Lightning could control its own power, but because the power it had just released was too strong, so it had somewhat calmed down now.
Bao Zhu kept neighing on He Yiming's body, as if it was describing its achievement in hunting down Hao Xue. It stretched out its white front hooves with a proud look on its face.
He Yiming shook his head in amusement. However, it was strange that Bao Zhu's blood-stained front hooves were now completely pale. Although the little fellow had washed them with seawater, they were still too clean.
White Horse Lightning took small, quick steps and circled around He Yiming's body. It slowly neighed softly, as if it was asking something.
He Yiming had an extraordinary relationship with it, and after fusing with Lightning's power, the White Horse Lightning had become even more powerful. It even seemed like it had developed a consciousness.
At this moment, He Yiming could clearly sense that the white horse was asking him what to do next.
He Yiming frowned slightly. He didn't know what to do with the White Horse Lightning at the moment.
After witnessing its all-out attack with the Yu family's ancestor, He Yiming knew that the chances of him continuing to keep the White Horse Lightning by his side were infinitely close to zero.
Not to mention unleashing all of its power, even if it unleashed only 1% of its power, it would cause irreparable damage.
He Yiming and the others had tried their best to escape from that enormous bolt of Lightning. They didn't dare to get caught up in it, let alone the others.
Before White Horse Lightning could fully control its power, it couldn't be allowed to appear in front of others. Otherwise, it would be a disaster.
He Yiming gently stroked the white horse's neck, feeling the faint, tiny electric sparks that numbed the palm of his hand. He Yiming considered for a while, and finally said, "Lei Dian, I'll find you an uninhabited island. You can live there for a while."
He Yiming's heart was filled with reluctance when he made this decision. However, he had no other choice.
White Horse Lightning tilted its head and blinked its big, beautiful eyes. In the end, it nodded helplessly.
Baozhu hummed a few times and waved its little front hooves vigorously. It looked like an orator who was stirring up people who believed in him. It looked funny, but there was an indescribable meaning to it.
"What is it saying?" He Yiming asked curiously.
108's calm voice rang out behind him. "Baozhu, tell the white horse to quickly control its power of Lightning. When the time comes, they will go to the Crying Ghost Ridge to meet the Dragon-Snake."
He Yiming was slightly stunned. He couldn't help but laugh. Baozhu, this little guy, actually wanted to show off in front of the Dragon-Snake. It was quite ingenious.
However, as long as he saw that Baozhu didn't object to being separated from the white horse for the time being, he knew that even this little guy was extremely afraid of the white horse's uncontrollable power of Lightning.
He Yiming raised his head and looked into the distance. "Let's go after the old ancestor of the Yu family first. I don't know if we can catch up."
108 shook his head slightly. "The chances are slim," he said.
He Yiming's heart immediately sank. If even 108 said that the chances were slim, then it was really impossible.
He Yiming sighed softly and said, "We have to give it a try."
He waved his hand and everyone went straight into the distance …
※ ※ ※
They followed the direction of the old ancestor of the Yu family. However, after a day, even He Yiming lost the confidence to catch up.
Although this person was actually a puppet and didn't have any intelligence, his speed was so fast that He Yiming and the others couldn't catch up to him at all.
Moreover, along the way, who knew what unforeseen events would happen that would cause the old ancestor of the Yu family to stop or change directions.
This vast sea was undoubtedly a good place to dispose of stolen goods, but at the same time, it was also extremely difficult to track him down.
If the white horse didn't have the Lightning on its body, then with its extreme speed, there might be a chance to catch up. However, the chances were slim now.
After He Yiming gave up on the chase, everyone turned around. Under 108's lead, they finally returned to the sea area where they first encountered the silver eels.
He Yiming naturally didn't know the direction, but the sea map of this southern border was stored in 108's mind. As long as he led the way, he would naturally be able to send everyone to their destination.
After another half a day, the White Horse Lightning reluctantly stayed behind on an uninhabited island.
Although the area of this uninhabited island wasn't very large, it wasn't too small either. There was a dense forest on the island that was dark and eerie.
However, in the waters of the southern border, it would be very difficult to find an existence that could harm the White Horse Lightning. Therefore, He Yiming naturally didn't worry about the safety of the White Horse Lightning.
Subsequently, He Yiming carried the Baozhu and, under the guidance of 108, finally arrived at the largest island in the southern border, Liu Li Island, which had the most abundant Qi of Heaven and Earth.
Looking from the sky, this was a huge island that was not inferior to the Penglai Immortal Island in the slightest. Although he could only see a little of the coastline from afar, with He Yiming's eyesight, he could naturally see the ships docked outside a port and the busy crowd.
Judging from the bustle of the harbor alone, this place seemed to be much more prosperous than the Penglai Immortal Island.
When He Yiming came here, he didn't use the Divine Light of the Five-element Ring to fly, but used the invisible light of the Aurora Sword, so there was no light on his body. Similarly, at the request of He Yiming, 108 also didn't have any light on his body.
However, since he had already arrived at Liu Li Island, He Yiming naturally wouldn't hide anymore.
In order to avoid any misunderstandings, he didn't hide his whereabouts. Instead, he greeted 108, released the Light of the Five-element Ring, and swaggered down from the sky with the pretentious 108.
After seeing the rare five-colored light and seven-colored light in the sky, the harbor suddenly became chaotic.
The people living on Liu Li Island, even ordinary people who didn't practice martial arts, understood the identity of the people who came at this moment.
For a time, this chaos spread rapidly, and everyone's eyes were filled with strong surprise. Of course, there was also deep reverence in the depths of these people's eyes.
This was the respect and fear for powerful superiors from the bottom of their hearts, because they all knew that in front of the Great Venerable Five Qi who could fly with the Divine Light, their lives were indeed as insignificant as ants.
Soon, He Yiming landed with Baozhu in his arms.
When they landed on the harbor and looked around, the thousands of people here all lowered their gazes respectfully.
The originally chaotic and busy harbor instantly became extremely quiet. Other than the sound of waves crashing against the rocks, there was no other sound.
A fierce man hurried over from afar. He looked at He Yiming and the others from afar, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. His feet seemed to fly, and he immediately rushed over at his fastest speed. He bowed deeply to the two of them and said, "I'm Zhuang Weixi of Liu Li Island. Greetings to Great Venerable He and Great Venerable Bai."
He Yiming looked at him and asked with a smile, "The three ships from the Grand Divine Wind Palace have all arrived?"
This person must have recognized him because Jin Zhanjiang and the others had instructed him. If not, how could this person recognize him?
Zhuang Weixi replied respectfully, "Venerable Jin and Venerable Wei of the Grand Divine Wind Palace have arrived on Liu Li Island with their three ships. Furthermore, Venerable Li has spread the portraits of the two of you throughout the island. He said that as long as there's any news of the two of you, it must be passed on immediately."
He Yiming nodded slightly. After hearing this person's words, he was completely relieved.
Although He Yiming had held back the Silver Eels and dispersed them under the furious roars of the two Saint Beasts, there were definitely many Silver Eel Spirit Beasts among the tens of thousands of Silver Eels.
These spirit beasts were far more powerful than ordinary spirit beasts, and they were in the vast sea, so He Yiming was still quite worried about the safety of these people.
Of course, he was not worried about Jin Zhanjiang and Wei Zongjin, but about the ordinary sailors on the three ships.
"Brother Jin and the others, where are they?" He Yiming asked with a nod.
Zhuang Weixi hurriedly replied, "Venerable Jin and the others have already gone to the island. If you're willing to move, how about I accompany you?"
He Yiming smiled and nodded. "Thank you for your trouble, Mister Zhuang."
Zhuang Weixi waved his hand and said, "You flatter me, you flatter me …"
He repeatedly said that he didn't dare, but he was quite surprised in his heart. In his life, he had seen a lot of masters. However, not to mention a Five Qi Supreme Venerable like He Yiming, even an ordinary Innate Expert would treat him as nothing.
Faintly, he seemed to feel that the Five Qi Supreme Venerable in front of him was somewhat different from the martial arts experts that he had met before, but he could not tell what was different about him.
Under Zhuang Weixi's lead, everyone boarded a luxurious carriage and headed into the distance, leaving behind countless people at the dock who were discussing excitedly.
