Four days later.
Lu An sat cross-legged on the beach. He slowly opened his eyes and let out a long sigh.
The weather was clear and there were no clouds in the sky.
That terrifying storm had finally passed yesterday. The storm had lasted for three days, and that terrifying aura had allowed Lu An to experience the power of nature.
Now, the weather had completely cleared up. Coupled with the warm sea breeze, the sand on the beach dried up very quickly. People who had been cooped up for three days could not help but come out to take a breather. They sat on the beach and enjoyed the warm winter breeze.
In three days, the three of them lived under the same roof. Their relationship had also improved by quite a bit. Although Yao still did not speak much, it was obvious that she had become more cheerful after they became more familiar with each other. She also shared many of her experiences on the road with the two of them. However, she did not mention anything about the Sengoku that Lu An was curious about.
Of course, since Yao did not say anything, Lu An would not ask, nor would he express his desire to know.
Xiaotong also talked about many things during the three days, including the situation in South Sea City, the various families, and the situation on the ocean. However, Lu An did not take note of these things. He did not want to stay in South Sea City for too long. Especially now that he had successfully cultivated Wrath of the Ocean, he wanted to leave as soon as possible.
Starting from Meteor Trail City to Middle Border City, he already understood that there were countless troubles in the city. Compared to that kind of trouble, he could either find a secluded place to cultivate or go on a real adventure.
After a while, it was almost noon. It was also time for lunch. For the past three days, the three of them had been eating dry rations. Although Lu An did not mind, he knew that the two girls were not used to it. The weather finally got better, so he was ready to catch some fish to eat.
Lu An stood up and walked to the surface of the sea under the curious gazes of the two girls. Due to the waves, many fish were washed close to the island. In addition, the water was extremely clear. Even if one did not dive into the water, they could still see it on the surface.
When Lu An stepped on the water, the water under his feet instantly froze. He walked on the surface of the sea, leaving a path of ice on the surface of the sea.
When the two girls saw this, their eyes could not help but light up. This kind of behavior was extremely dazzling no matter how one looked at it!
This was indeed something that Lu An could not do in the past. However, ever since he had successfully cultivated the Wrath of the Ocean, he had discovered that not only had his control over the Deep Ice increased tremendously, but he had also gained a considerable understanding of its cold air. Not only could he release ice now, he could also release cold air. For Lu An, this was not a small breakthrough.
When Lu An walked about ten feet away, he lowered his head and looked into the sea. There were quite a few schools of fish swimming in the sea. Lu An noticed a relatively large one and instantly waved his hand. In an instant, a long icicle extended from his hand!
The icicles pierced into the water, heading straight for the fish that was about one zhang deep, and accurately pierced it. Then, Lu An retracted the icicle bit by bit and caught the fish in his hand.
After repeating the process, Lu An soon returned with three fish in his hand. Placing the three fish on a rock, Lu An began to drill wood to start a fire.
Seeing this, the two girls could not help but be stunned. Yao asked curiously, "Aren't you a Heavenly Master? Can't you just release your flames?"
Lu An smiled awkwardly and said, "I want to try drilling wood to start a fire."
Actually, he was also feeling bitter. He wanted to release his flames too, but the Nine Heavens Sacred Flame was too domineering. He was afraid that once it touched the fish, the fish would be burned to ashes.
Fortunately, Lu An had a lot of experience in starting a fire, so he quickly started a fire. After the three fish were processed and placed on top, a fragrant aroma soon appeared.
Smelling the aroma, the two girls' stomachs grumbled in hunger. When Lu An distributed the grilled fish to them, they quickly took it and ate it.
Now, they felt that such a simple grilled fish was very delicious.
With one big fish each, the two girls quickly finished the fish in their hands. They saw Xiaotong lying comfortably on the beach. Even Yao had a rare look of relief on her face as a smile appeared on her face.
Escaping from a disaster, this feeling made her heart, which was originally filled with despair, feel a lot of hope.
In this world, that person was not the only one.
At the side, Lu An had also finished eating his fish. He held a blade of grass in his mouth as he looked at the distant sea with a serious gaze. Since the storm had passed, they could not possibly live here forever. They had to think of a way to leave this place.
The choice was very simple. They could either wait for a ship to pass by, or build a ship and leave. However, Lu An was never a person who would sit and wait for death. Hence, he immediately stood up and looked at the two girls on the beach.
"I'm going to build a ship." Lu An said, "The two of you stay here and don't run around."
Although the island was not big, it was still an island. The forest was also very deep. He was afraid that something would happen to the two girls if they got lost. The two girls obediently nodded. After all, Lu An was their only hope to survive.
Not long after, Lu An carried two big trees and walked out. Following that, he used various methods to build a ship. This time, he wanted to build a big ship. Furthermore, he had experience working at the docks, so he more or less had some understanding of building a ship.
While Lu An was busy, the two girls came to his side to see if there was anything they could help with. However, they were rejected by Lu An. Lu An began to busy himself in front of the two big trees. He was very methodical.
Not long after, the bottom of the ship was built by Lu An. The bottom of the ship was four feet long and two feet wide. It was enough for the three of them to do anything on it. Yao and Xiao Tong watched from the side. They did not understand why Lu An was so young, but he knew so many things.
However, just as Lu An was about to change his direction to continue building, his body suddenly trembled as he looked at the distant sea.
The two girls were also stunned. They followed Lu An's line of sight and looked over. Soon, they saw a big ship coming from afar!
There was a ship!
Seeing that, the two girls immediately jumped up in excitement! It was not as simple as a ship. There would also be people on it who would tell them where they were and the direction!
Lu An was also very excited. However, after two breaths, his face sank. The ship was still very far away from them, but it was indeed heading in their direction. However, he really did not understand. No matter what, they were still in the deep sea. Why would a ship appear at this time?
Lu An put down the things in his hands. He stood at the edge of the beach and looked into the distance seriously. As he was a Taoist Master, his five senses were much better than ordinary people. He could see things that the two girls could not see from a distance. However, when the ship got closer, he finally saw it clearly.
He frowned instantly, and his face sank instantly!
"It's a pirate ship," Lu An said in a deep voice.
The moment they heard Lu An's words, the two girls' bodies stiffened. The joy on their faces also came to an abrupt end. They knew that Lu An would not lie to them. Their faces were replaced by panic.
"What should we do then?" Xiao Tong asked anxiously, "Should we hide and come out after they pass by?"
At the side, Yao nodded in agreement. The two girls looked at Lu An. After all, Lu An was their pillar now. Everything depended on Lu An.
Lu An's brows furrowed slightly as he carefully examined the appearance of the ship. The ship was not black. The sails were not black. There was also no red eagle. However, Lu An remembered that the Heaven Fiend Pirate Group was the most famous one in the entire sea region. They had a Level Three Heavenly Master. In other words, the other pirate groups did not have a Level Three Heavenly Master.
Thinking of this, Lu An turned to look at Yao and asked, "Can you give me the Power of Blessing now?"
Yao was stunned. Although she could not give it to outsiders, Lu An had already made an exception. She did not mind breaking it a few more times. She nodded and said, "Yes."
"That's good." A bright smile appeared on Lu An's face. The seriousness from before had completely disappeared.
Seeing the change on Lu An's face, the two girls were a little puzzled. They did not know what was so funny about pirates. Yao asked, "What should we do?"
"It's very simple." Lu An looked at the pirate ship in the distance again. He smiled and said, "Rob pirates."
