Chapter Four Hundred and Thirty Nine – Cloud Sea Jie. (1/2)

Chapter Four Hundred and Thirty Nine – Cloud Sea Jie.

Three months later.

A non-descript, little black ship appeared at the entrance of the Cloud Sea Jie river.

Everyone inside the Black Turtle squeezed in front of the mirage formation. Looking at the scenery outside, they were very excited.

“We’ve finally arrived! So this Cloud Sea Jie!”

“It’s so beautiful!”

“Yes, it’s the first time I’ve seen a place this beautiful … …”

Under their feet was an endless sea of clouds. Floating among this sea of clouds werewere little islands. The cloud sea slowly floated, and the white cloud energy was faintly discernable like mist.

Suddenly, a big, bright-green bird shot out of the cloud sea, its wings stroked as it furiously flew into the sky and disappeared into the distance in a blink.

“Such fast speed!”

The people that saw this scene all inhaled sharply. The speed of this green bird was something who even A Wen, the fastest one among them, could only gape at.

The expressions of Zuo Mo and few others also changed slightly. They exchanged looks with each other and saw the gravity in each other’s eyes. The green bird’s grade was not low. In Sky Moon Jie, it would definitely be at the top of the food chain.

If the grade of the yao beast in an area were very high, it meant that there would not be a high population of xiuzhe in this area and that the area was not well explored. Yao beasts were not friendly to xiuzhe. Xiuzhe liked to hunt yao beasts, and yao beasts were also showed a similar interest and fondness for xiuzhe.

“There aren’t any people on these islands.” Wei Sheng stared at the island as they passed by. The island was not very large, about fifty mu. Because it was so close, the group could see it very clearly. There were ruins of buildings on the island which indicated that xiuzhe had once resided there.

Thinking about the green bird that had darted by, everyone’s expressions were not very good. Were the ling beasts here left to roam free to such a degree?

“Everyone, be careful,” Zuo Mo ordered.

Everyone immediately focused and prepared their defenses. However, the reality proved they had worried needlessly. Other than that shockingly fast green bird, they did not encounter anything significant along the way.

After the initial novelty passed, the endless cloud sea quickly became dull and boring in everyone’s eyes.

———

After more than a dozen days, just as everyone was feeling restless, an enormous island appeared in their vision. Everyone’s morale rose, but no one had expected that they had to continue flying for three more days before they could be considered near to this island.

They finally realized that the enormity of this island far surpassed their imagination! When they flew closer, this feeling increased. It was like a colossal sea turtle silently floating in the cloud sea. In front of it, the xiuzhe were insignificant like specks of dust!

Approaching the large island, the number of fragmented little islands they could see increased. They were scattered randomly and in various sizes. Some were just dozens of zhang in diameter, while others were tens of thousands of mu in area.

When Zuo Mo and the others flew close, a xiuzhe flew out from one of the little islands. This xiuzhe’s face looked clever. He wore a cloth robe and crisply stopped fifty zhang from the Black Turtle. He made a bow and shouted loudly, “This one is Shang Wei Ming. Bosses, welcome to Dong Sheng Cloud Island. This one hopes your business is prosperous and flourishing! Do you require a guide? This one is a local, so if Boss wants to know of something, sell or buy, this one might be able to offer some scarce effort.”

Shang Wei Ming’s face was open without any shyness.

“Guide?” Zuo Mo felt it was interesting. After thinking a while, he shouted his order, “Get Bao Yi to come.”

As he finished, he flew out of the Black Turtle first. Wei Sheng was worried for Zuo Mo’s safety and also flew out. The other people inside the ship were alert and guarded, to ensure they could respond the moment they encountered any danger. They had slaughtered their way out of Bloody Sky Metropolis Jie and had formed the habit of being alert at any moment.

Shang Wei Ming saw two people fly out of the ship. His expression was steady but he released a breath inside. It seemed that this business was possible!

“This is Dong Sheng Cloud Sea?” Zuo Mo asked curiously.

“Yes, this is Dong Sheng Cloud Sea.” Shang Wei Ming bowed towards the two. “What do I call both bosses?”

“My name is Zuo,” Zuo Mo said with a smile. He pointed at Wei Sheng and said, “He is Wei.”

“Good day, Boss Zuo and Boss Wei,” Shang Wei Ming raised his folded hands in salute and gave his greetings. He examined the two people. Seeing their attire was normal, he was slightly disappointed inside. The black ship behind them was very normal. Shang Wei Ming was increasingly sure that Zuo Mo and the others were just small business merchants.

However, while he felt disappointed inside, he did not allow it to show it on his face. No matter what, it was good that he had business today.

“Have you come to Dong Sheng Cloud Sea for business or to visit friends?” Shang Wei Ming looked as Zuo Mo and asked. He could see that Zuo Mo was the decision-maker.

At this time, Bao Yi hurried over. He bowed towards Zuo Mo, “Boss,” and then bowed towards Wei Sheng. “Teacher Wei!”

“Brother Bao is too courteous,” Wei Sheng said humbly.
