Chapter 334: No Slight Difference

This battle which was a fight for their lives was a huge test for the three who were in it.

There’s a king right behind her, and a herd of beasts surrounding them. If they made any mistake, they would all die instantly.

I worked so hard to finally escape from that old, disgusting drug lord and dying here as a result is unacceptable . Lu Mingshu gritted her teeth.

After they switched places, she turned to Jiang Yuan. “Prince Jiang, you have the control of this boat, right?”

Jiang Yuan looked up at her right after she killed a water beast. She gritted her teeth and sent Lu Mingshu death glares. She’s doing it on purpose! She’s trying to force me into giving out my secret. Even though Jiang Yuan knew that doing so would benefit all of them, she can’t help but feel unhappy at Lu Mingshu using tricks on her. Ever since she became Prince Jiang, nobody dared to do this except Lu Mingshu!

Jiang Yuan rolled her eyes and threw the badge over in anger. “Take it! Activate it with soul energy and it can form temporary boundaries which can last one attack from the freezing spirit phrase. Don’t waste it because you need an extreme amount of soul energy for this and even I can only use it three times.”

Lu Mingshu caught the badge and nodded her head: “Okay.”

Lu Mingshu smirked. She indeed did it on purpose to force it out of Jiang Yuan. Because nobody would give away such things to another’s possession easily, and by doing so, she’ll need not waste her breath on convincing Jiang Yuan.

The King of Beasts dashed up to them and created waves with it’s tails.

“Incoming!” Jiang yan yelled and wanted to attack.

Lu Mingshu glance over at her and increased her volume. “Prince Jiang, I don’t think I’ve given any command.”

“you——”

It was not what Lu Mingshu said that made Jiang Yuan unhappy. But it was her tone that somehow hinted that she’s better than Jiang Yuan making her boil. Jiang Yuan took in a deep breath and calmed herself down before answering. “But miss Ji, we can’t just sit here and not do anything, right?”

The boat is now already mid air, thrown up by the waves, and it was soon going to fall back into the water, with the king of beasts coming for them again. This time, it is not aiming for the water, but the boat.

Jiang Yuan’s heart already inher throat.~ If this attack hits us successfully, the boat will surely be turned into ashes. Without the boat? Our ability will go drop by at least thirty percent! If Lu Mingshu can’t deal with this, I’ll take control back no matter how bad it will make me look!~

Suddenly, the king of beast’s tail is above her head.

The sky turned dark immediately as the tail covered their light.

“Keep still!” By reflex, Jiang Yuan was about to counterattack, but Lu Mingshu’s command stopped her and she managed to keep herself still. But the tail that was right above her head made chills run down her spine.

As the tail got closer to her—-

A light shone past, and the boat suddenly turned, making the tail miss by a few centimeters. The huge energy near the boat sent it flying away, and Jiang Yuan felt like it was going to break the boat apart.

Since I chose to believe in her, then I should at least keep my promise before anything happens.

The boat made another turn and swiftly went past the huge waves.

In no time, the sky lit up, and the king of beasts was no longer coming after them.

As Jiang Yuan was about to heave a sigh of relief, a group of beasts were now surrounding their boat once again.

“Don’t move!” Lu Mingsu commanded again.

The water beasts pounced up towards them one after another, and even though their strength was nothing compared to the king of beasts, a group of them made things hard.

After the close shave, Jiang Yuan had let her guard down and took a quick glance at Yan Wugui. To her surprise, he was standing there casually, fiddling with his weapon as if he was on a cruise.

Maybe this girl is that powerful?

Seeing how calm Yan Wugui was, Jiang Yuan felt more confident and at ease. She then looked back at Lu Mingshu, to see that under her control, the boat was going up towards the four water beasts!

“Ahhh!” Jiang yan cried. She raised her hand unconsciously and got into a defensive posture.

However, in the blink of an eye, the king of beasts landed an attack , launching a huge wave that sent the boat flying up once more, just barley scraping past the four beasts.

“whoosh!” the small boat fell back into the water and continued to speed foward.

The four beasts which they passed by were now behind them, and just nice, they met up with the king of beasts and were crushed within a second.

Jiang Yuan’s jaw dropped at this scene. They were being surrounded by the herd of beasts and nearly died! But we managed to escape just like this, and we haven’t even done anything! Miss Ji didn’t even activate the defence in the boat!

What the heck?!

But Jiang Yuan wasn’t the only who who was taken aback.

The cultivators who were trying to seize this chance pass the second round were dumbfounded too.

“Wha—what the hell. Even this is possible?!” They stared at the battle, jaws wide open. The three people on the boat seemed to have not done anything yet they managed to escape in the blink of an eye without even doing anything!

Everyone here is a cultivator, but this was something that none of them had ever seen before.

On the Chu’s family boat, Chu Zhengyan was knocked down by a feather.

“What the heck, are my eyes playing tricks on me? They did nothing to control the boat but got out safely?!”

“Yeah, your eyes are fine.”His junior brother nodded and answered in a monotone voice.

“This is…unbelievable…” Chu Zhengyan stared at the blank space, dumbfounded. “Brother Yun, do you agree?”

Floating cloud nodded his head, his voice was deep: “mhm….”

Seeing his reaction, Chu Zhengyan smiled thinly. “Is brother Yun worried what changes these two cultivators might bring to the debate?”

Floating cloud gentleman said in a deep voice: “With their ability, getting into the 3rd round, might be….”

“Indeed.” Chu Zhengyan thought for a while and laughed, “But whatever, if anything goes badly, we will bring Qin Jun over.”

Floating cloud gentlemen glanced over at him and did not reply.

~This prince chu, who is also called the pretty prince seems to be a gentleman in front of others, but not in reality. Three of the princes going against one is not a very nice sight, and me and Qin Jun would think twice before doing so. But he does not seem to care about this.~

Oh and one more….

“Oh yeah, the two from the Ji family seems to be similar to brother Yun!”

This sentence made the floating cloud’s gentleman heart skip a beat. He looked over but Chu Zhengyan’s eyes were still stuck on the battle. “Their seal seems faint at first, I thought it was because their blood isn’t that pure thus that’s why but when they activate their soul energy, it’s very obvious!”

Jiang Yuan helped them to fake it, and Yan Wugui had redrawn it faintly again. If the seal only appears when they activate their soul energy, it will reminds others lol of the floating cloud gentleman, making them suspicious. Thus Jiang Yuan tried her best and this was the best she could do.

“Mhm.” Floating cloud gentleman muttered.

Seeing that he did not have much reaction, Chu Zhengyan continued. “Where is brother Yun from though, do you coincidentally have the same bloodline as the Jis?”

The floating cloud gentleman glanced over at him coldly. “Don’t all the cultivators in this world have the same ancestor? Brother Chu thinks too much.”
