Upon hearing the name Black Dove, Yang Zhen immediately jumped up and shouted, “Run, run quickly!”
Everyone was startled by Yang Zhen’s sudden outburst, and the infamous reputation of the Black Dove had everyone on edge. They hurriedly turned their flying ship around, trying to avoid the ominous muzzle of the Black Dove’s cannon.
The moment their ship, the Edge Blade, had appeared, the muzzle of the Black Dove had already started to emit a terrifying fluctuation of True Essence. A violent energy swirl gathered above it and ignited instantaneously into a horrifying light column that rushed towards the Edge Blade.
Yang Zhen’s face turned pale, he muttered to himself, “I’m done for, I haven’t even married yet, and I’m going to end it here?”
The Chief Sister’s face was equally grim. Her giant sword emitted a horrific energy wave, and she shouted, “Watch out!”
Everyone looked horrified, but they could only watch as the beam rushed towards them.
If the charged True Essence cannon hit the Edge Blade, a single shot would be enough to tear the ship apart. Those with weak cultivation levels wouldn’t be able to withstand even the residual energy waves; they were certainly facing imminent death.
Liu Shanquan’s face turned ashen. He glanced at the Chief Sister, then at Yang Zhen, screamed, and then charged at Yang Zhen, tackling him to the ground. “What are you doing? Get off me now!”
Yang Zhen had goosebumps all over him. He looked up and saw Liu Shanquan’s face filled with horror, looking straight at Yang Zhen and saying, “The Chief Sister saved my life from the edge of death. She told me to protect you. Even if I die, I won’t let a single hair on your head be harmed!”
All around was a cacophony of terrified voices, everyone desperately trying to change the direction of the Edge Blade. Yang Zhen was stunned, looking at Liu Shanquan, whose face was pale and struggling, he was almost moved by him.
The guy named Lin Shilang had already crawled under a table, his head covered with a heavy pot lid. He watched Yang Zhen with a face full of jealousy, a sharp sting of envy in his eyes.
Yang Zhen wanted to hack this bastard to death, he had never seen someone with such strong jealousy in his life.
He thought Lin Shilang had always picked on him only because the Chief Sister was too close to him. But now, he saw that Lin was so psychologically twisted he was beyond saving.
Buzz!
The entire Edge Blade suddenly trembled, as if it was being shook by some terrifying wave.
The next moment, everyone started to cheer, only Liu Shanquan was still closing his eyes, showing his loyalty.
“If I die, Brother Yang, you must go to my home and tell my poor mother that I… I… Eh? I’m not dead?”
Yang Zhen quickly pushed Liu Shanquan away, jumped up and rushed to the window.
Missed!
Scared me to death!
Yang Zhen was really shocked this time. The two ships were only two thousand feet apart, and they had missed?
Everyone was cheering. The feeling of escaping death caused everyone to emit the wildest screams, even the Chief Sister was no exception. She just stared at the Black Dove on the opposite side, grinding her teeth, her face gloomy.
“What are you all waiting for? Let’s get the hell out of here!” Lin Shilang crawled out from under the table and urged urgently.
Yang Zhen kicked Lin Shilang away and said, “Leave here? No way! They scared me shitless, and just leave like this? Fire at them, if we don’t blast it to smithereens today, from now on, Yang Zhen will be known as False Yang!”
The surrounding cheers suddenly stopped, everyone looked at Yang Zhen with bewildered faces.
Lin Shilang burst into laughter, pointing at Yang Zhen and said, “Yang Zhen…oh no, False Yang, you want to blast the Black Dove into pieces, how are you going to do it? With your fist?”
Liu Shanquan leaned in closer to Yang Zhen, and said with a strange expression, “Brother Yang, our accurate shooting range is twelve hundred feet, but the Black Dove’s range is fifteen hundred feet. We’re three hundred feet short. If we fight them, we’ll simply become live targets!”
The Chief Sister also tried to persuade him, “Yang Zhen, I want to pulverize that bastard Hei Xiao into pieces more than you do. But as Liu Shanquan said, we are three hundred feet short of their accurate shooting range. These three hundred feet will nearly make them invincible. Unless we also have a True Essence cannon with a fifteen hundred feet precise shooting range, there’s no way…”
It was crystal clear, in this current predicament, the Sword Edge could only try to outrun the Black Pigeon for as long and as fast as they could before it caught up.
At this point, nobody questioned why the Black Pigeon was there, for once it entered aiming range, it would be too late to escape.
“Yang Zhen, do you truly believe you can do everything? Who doesn’t want to rip the Black Pigeon to shreds right now? Do you have a plan?” Lin Shilang sneered, brushing the dust off his clothes.
Yang Zhen stared at Lin Shilang and asked, “What if I do have a plan?”
Lin Shilang, taken aback, burst into laughter, and said, “If you do, then I, Lin Shilang, will chase after the Black Pigeon with my True Essence cannon!” “Those are your words!” After Yang Zhen finished speaking, he walked over to a window, punched and shattered the crystal glass, picking up the remaining pieces.
“What are you doing?” The eldest sister frowned, then curiously asked.
“Crafting!” Yang Zhen answered without turning his head.
Everyone looked startled, Lin Shilang sneered: “You can’t possibly expect to create a True Essence cannon, could you?”
Yang Zhen looked up at Lin Shilang, turned to Liu Shanquan and said, “Starting from now, you are the second-in-command of Sword Edge. I can enable you to blast a hole through Black Pigeon from two thousand feet away, dare to try?” “From two thousand feet?” Lin Shilang cried, “You must be joking! At two thousand feet, Black Pigeon will look no bigger than a horse. You claim you can blast a hole through it, it’s just absurd!”
While working with the crystals, Yang Zhen asked Liu Shanquan again, “Dare to try?”
Liu Shanquan stared hard, “Why not give it a shot!”
“Good!” Yang Zhen nodded: “Second-in-command!”
“Present!”
“Toss this noisy guy out for me!”
Liu Shanquan eyeballed Lin Shilang with a sour expression.
Lin Shilang sneered, “Try touching me and see what happens!”
Clang!
A crowd gathered around Lin Shilang, Liu Shanquan gave a creepy grin. After the elderly sister and Little Huan, he was the most popular person on Sword Edge. It wouldn’t be a problem for him to throw Lin Shilang out of the inner cabin, even off Sword Edge, as long as the eldest sister didn’t object.
“How dare you!” Lin Shilang roared, exuding an aura of power, his gaze drifting towards the eldest sister.
The eldest sister didn’t bat an eye. She squatted down in front of Yang Zhen, watching him sort out the crystals, curiously asking: “What are you making? What’s its use?”
“A sniper scope with eight-times magnification. It’s pretty useful, could be used for chicken!”
“Chicken?” The eldest sister questioned, “We could have chicken even without it!”
Yang Zhen exclaimed in surprise, and looking up at the eldest sister, asked, “Have you ever tasted chicken? How about I take you for some someday?”
“Sure!”
Lin Shilang saw that the only one who could potentially prevent the conflict, the eldest sister, was casually discussing cooking chicken with Yang Zhen, his face turned ashen. After a long glare at Yang Zhen, he coldly grunted and stormed out of the inner cabin.
It wasn’t long before an enhanced sniper scope with eight-fold magnification was completed in Yang Zhen’s hands.
Liu Shanquan approached the scope with astonishment, and asked, “This thing, it can hit the Black Pigeon from two thousand feet?”
