Facing a desperate situation
Little Miss Muddle was a little nervous when she saw everyone looking at her. She stuttered, "Yes, yes. I … I can try to modify the main cannon, but it will take time, and … and Senior Brother Yang's Pure Yang Eye."
"That's not a problem." Yang Hongwu was very generous. The Pure Yang Eye was a good thing. If it could save lives, Yang Hongwu would not be reluctant to part with it.
"How long will it take?" Tian Zhenyun asked.
It was a distance of thirty miles. It would not take long for the enemy to reach them. Time was of the essence. They would probably catch up in a few dozen breaths.
"Yes, very soon. Just a while, a while. About a hundred breaths," Little Miss Muddle said.
A hundred breaths, this … this was not a short time. They would not be able to hold on.
"A hundred breaths, we should be able to hold on," Feng Gaoge said.
"Oh no, there's another Emperor-class Specter Ship." Suddenly, Yang Hongwu's expression changed. He smiled bitterly when he heard Mao 'er's reminder. It was not just an Emperor-class Specter Ship. No, there was another fleet of Specter Ships. There was even an Emperor-class Specter Ship among them.
"What?" Everyone was shocked.
"And it's not just one warship. There's a fleet of Specter Ships. In addition to the Emperor-class Specter Ship, there are five Emperor-class Warships," Yang Hongwu said.
"How … how is this possible? The Ancient Nether Clan does not need to spend so much effort for a single Emperor-class Warship." Tian Zhenyun's face darkened. The disparity in strength was too great. There was no way they could win. They did not even have a chance to escape.
If there was only one Emperor-class Warship, there was still a chance to escape. But now, there was a fleet of warships. It was impossible to escape.
"Surrender." At this time, the warship received a signal from the Ancient Nether Clan.
"Surrender?" Tian Zhenyun sneered. "Impossible. You must be dreaming."
"We won't make things difficult for you. As long as you hand over one person, we will let you go," the Ancient Nether Clan member said.
They were actually here for one person?
Who was that person? Why did they make such a big fuss? Why did they spend so much effort? That didn't make sense.
Everyone on the scene looked at each other in dismay. It was really strange. Everyone on the battleship was here, but it seemed that no one was worthy of their attention. No one was related to the Ancient Nether Clan.
Yang Hongwu frowned and thought of a possibility.
Yang Hongwu had heard from Tian Zhenyun that one of the Ancient Nether Clan's Innate Skills was Invisibility. His Battle Spirit Shadow, Little Rui, was the Shadowless Sacred Body. Her concealment and stealth skills were unparalleled in the world. It could be said that no one in the Ancient Domain was more powerful than her in terms of concealment and stealth skills.
If so, then it was likely that these fellows' goal was him. To be more precise, they had come for his battle spirit, Ying Xiaorui.
Of course, this was only Yang Hongwu's guess. Whether or not this was the reason had yet to be proven.
"Why should we believe you?" Yang Hongwu suddenly had an idea and said.
Tian Zhenyun looked at Yang Hongwu and frowned slightly. He didn't think that Yang Hongwu was really going to hand over the person they wanted, right?
However, since he did so, he had his reasons. It could be seen that Yang Hongwu was not only talented, but also a person with his own ideas and great wisdom. He would not be so reckless and impulsive.
"You have no other choice." The Ancient Nether Clan member laughed loudly and said, "It's worth it to exchange one person for all of your lives. Otherwise, you will all die here."
"Who is this person? Why is he so important to you? Why do you have to pay such a big price to find him? " Yang Hongwu said again, "If you don't want to say it, we would rather die than hand him over."
"That's not for you to consider. The person we are looking for is a person with the Shadowless Battle Body. He is in your battleship. As for the rest, don't ask. Just hand him over." The Ancient Nether Clan member said.
"Shadowless Battle Body? No, that's not right. We don't have anyone with the Shadowless Battle Body here. "Tian Zhenyun frowned and said.
Among all the people here, Tian Zhenyun, Gu Xiaoxuan and the others, none of them had the Shadowless Battle Body. Yang Hongwu had the Golden Dragon Sacred Body and Yi Xue 'er had the Zombie Battle Body. Could it be someone from Yang Hongwu's Small World?
Since none of the people present were from Yang Hongwu, there was only one possibility: they were from Yang Hongwu's small world.
Everyone looked at him.
Yang Hongwu smiled bitterly. Sure enough, the person they were looking for was Ying Xiaorui.
"It's not me. The people in the Small World don't have the Shadowless Battle Body. However, my battle spirit has the Shadowless Battle Body." Yang Hongwu explained.
"Your battle spirit is Ying Xiaorui?" Gao Qingqing asked.
She knew about Ying Xiaorui. Yang Hongwu had taken a risk to go deep into the Skeleton Village for Ying Xiaorui, his battle spirit.
He didn't expect that the Ancient Nether Clan had come for Yang Hongwu's battle spirit. This was troublesome.
Ying Xiaorui was Yang Hongwu's battle spirit. Once a battle spirit had signed a contract, it couldn't be removed unless a Great Emperor took action.
"This is troublesome." Sha Peng murmured.
"At worst, we'll fight to the death." Tian Zhenyun said, "We just need to hold on for half a day. In half a day, the leader and the others will arrive. At that time, we won't need to be afraid of the Ancient Nether Clan."
Feng Gaoge smiled bitterly. Half a day, how difficult was it to hold on for half a day? It was simply impossible. Under the siege of two emperor-level ghost ships and several king-level warships, it was impossible to hold on for half an hour. How could they hold on for half a day?
Yang Hongwu thought for a moment and said, "Seniors, please hand me over."
"No, absolutely not." Gao Qingqing hurriedly said, "We, the Heavenly Spirit Peak, have never abandoned our companions for a chance to survive. No one in the Tianyi Immortal Mansion will drag out an ignoble existence for their own lives."
"That's right. I, Tian Zhenyun, can't betray my own disciple for my own life." Tian Zhenyun echoed, "Qingqing is right. At worst, we'll die. However, even if we die, we'll make the Ancient Nether Clan pay a great price."
Tian Zhenyun's eyes flashed with determination.
"Even if we die, we must die with dignity."
"There's no need for that." Yang Hongwu said, "Seniors, they're looking for me. There's no need to make such a meaningless sacrifice. Besides, I may have a way to escape."
"Besides, if I alone can save everyone's lives, it's worth it."
