“Mentor, isn’t that not too suitable!” The little fatty hastily protested, “Look at how urgent the situation is right now. There’s also so many people outside waiting for us to rescue them!”
“Don’t worry, us mentors will be taking care of the people in the large cabin. You just need to take care of yourselves.” After saying this, Zhou Danjin left Qiao Mu’s room with Wei Xu and the rest.
The students looked at each other before Ma Ta couldn’t resist cursing, “These screwy troublemakers. What should we do now?”
If they couldn’t summon their flying beasts, did this mean they had no choice but to swim back?
Qiao Mu took out a small porcelain bottle in heartache. She poured out two pills and passed them to Duanmu Qing and the little fatty.
“Find an opportunity later.” Since the mentors were prohibiting them from using flying beasts, then that meant they wanted them to continue flying?
Although they had already traveled for several days by ship, there were still two days left before they would arrive at Polan Prefecture. How was it possible for them to fly using their own energies? Additionally, there was nowhere for them to rest along the way.
“Qiaoqiao!” The little fatty suddenly bolted up and stuttered, “Don-Don’t we ha-have that, that Scarlet Sky Breaker ship?”
He purposely lowered his voice with a guilty conscience. He peered around them, as if afraid the mentors would suddenly pop out from some nook or cranny.
Qiao Mu nodded and shot him a glance.
Duanmu Qing stated dryly, “The problem is how to avoid the mentors!”
“Right, right, right.” Those screwy mentors even prohibited them from using flying beasts. How could they make an exception for them to use the Scarlet Sky Breaker ship?
The little fatty lowered his voice even further. “Qiaoqiao, tell us. We’ll do as you say!”
Qiao Mu cast him a glance but didn’t say anything. She walked up to the window and observed the gradually darkening sky.
Everybody didn’t have much appetite due to the rocking ship. They merely munched on a peach and called it a meal.
By the time night completely fell, the entire ship shook from getting hit by a humongous wave, as if it wouldn’t even last 15 minutes.
The captain had his men control the wheel with all his might, but the waves were truly too big that the ship could only get knocked around in the raging sea.
Suddenly, the women sitting apprehensively inside the large cabin heard a huge boom.
It sounded like some kind of large fish had crashed into the side of their ship. Everybody had their hearts in their throats.
Immediately after, the nervous women heard the floorboards underneath them start splitting and cracking.
This sound simply snapped everyone’s nerves.
“Ah!” Sis Qi jumped up while holding her daughter Huanhuan. She hugged the latter tightly, her face paling from fright.
Zhou Danjin walked outside gravely and hollered, “Everybody, come out quickly.”
Wei Xu also walked out and leaped agilely into the air. At a wave of his hand, a huge aerial centipede appeared in the sky with a hiss.
The commoners who had rushed out from the large cabin in a panic all received a shock.
At last, they alighted that aerial centipede with Mentor Zhou and the others’ urging.
Meanwhile, Qiao Mu’s group also came out when they heard the ruckus. They looked at the aerial centipede but did not even bat an eyelid.
