Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The Fishbone Gang’s big ship docked at the back of Crab Island. During the day, they sent a few pirates to investigate Crab Island. At night, the big ship sailed to the surface of the sea and carefully looked out for any news of Yongxing Trading Company activity.
When it was almost noon that day, a few pirates excitedly returned. “Boss, the Yongxing Trading Company’s merchant ship is heading to the sea ahead.”
The Fishbone Gang leader sneered. “Good! The trap is set and the fish has taken the bait! Everyone, rest well. We’ll set off after dark!”
After dinner, when the sky gradually darkened, the Fishbone Gang’s large ship set off.
The expressions on the faces of everyone in the Fishbone Gang were very conflicted. There was an anticipation for the potential spoils of war mixed with anxiety of the unknown. The guards of the Yongxing Trading Company were not pushovers.. Their spirit energy was not low, especially when those commanders were all at the level of a spirit emperor, however, they did not know how many people had traveled on the ship this time. It would be fine if there were fewer people, but if there were more people, then the odds were against them.
When it was almost midnight, everyone saw the cargo ship of the Yongxing Trading Company in the distance. The ship was brightly lit, and people were constantly diving in the nearby waters.
“Boss, could it be that they are collecting water-proof beads? Didn’t they say that there are no water-proof beads in this area?” One of the Pirates looked at the divers and asked in puzzlement.
“Could it be that they are looking for your treasure? Boss, could there be some treasure buried here?” A pirate said excitedly.
Yu Hai, the leader of the Fishbone Gang, rubbed his chin then said in a low voice, “Lower your voice! What you said made sense. There were very few demon beasts in this area, and there were no sea clams. The Yongxing Trading Company might really be looking for some treasure here. Let’s wait and see if they find anything. No one is to make a sound or light up any lamps.”
Yun Chujiu’s little heart was beating non-stop. The place where the Yongxing Trading Company’s ship stopped was precisely the place where she had escaped from the enchantment. Why would the people of the Yongxing Trading Company be looking for something there? Could it be a coincidence?
That’s right, the place where she was trapped would not have set up an enchantment for no reason. There must be some secret hidden in there, and it was connected to the ancient sword tomb. It must be something big!
Yun Chujiu poked her head out, her eyes shining as she stared at the Yongxing Trading Company’s ship. If those people were really looking for something under the barrier, perhaps she could follow the clues and find the culprit behind the abnormality in the ancient sword tomb.
Four hours later, they heard cheers coming from the Yongxing Trading Company’s ship. Because they were afraid of being discovered, the Fishbone Gang’s ship was anchored far away, so they did not see what they had fished out from the bottom of the sea.
Yu Hai, the leader of the Fishbone Gang, waved his hand. “Go! Let’s catch them off guard!”
Following Yu Hai’s command, the large ship rushed toward the Yongxing Trading Company’s ship.
The people of the Yongxing Trading Company quickly noticed the Fishbone Gang’s ship approaching. They were clearly well-trained and immediately went into battle mode.
“Yo! Isn’t that great leader Yu Hai? Why, have you thought it through? Do you want to join our Yongxing Trading Company?” Shan Yanghu said with a fake smile.
Yu Hai sneered, “Join the Yongxing Trading Company? Humph! Your reputation isn’t as good as that of us pirates. I don’t want to be stabbed in the back and work like a dog for others!”
“You! Yu Hai, don’t be so shameless! Our boss only loves you because you’re talented. That’s why he has invited you over and over again. Otherwise, do you really think that you’re that special? Since you’re not here to join us, it means you’re here to find trouble. With so few people with you, you actually dare to plot against the Yongxing Trading Company? You’re sailing to your death!” Shan Yanghu said savagely.
