Chapter Seven Hundred and Seventy – Green Silk

“They’ve come.” Nian Lu said with a depressed expression, “Two mo marshals, a great army. Aiya, I suddenly feel the pressure is great!”

Laying on his back, head cushioned on his arms, Ma Fan chewed on a stalk of grass as he stared in a daze at the sky. He seemed to not hear what Nian Lu had said.

Lei Peng rumbled out, “Do you know why you feel like this?”

Nian Lu stilled and asked curiously, “Why?”

Lei Peng used his large fists to beat his steel-like chest and said proudly, “Because you are too small! Only a man of steel like myself can remain composed even if Mount Tai collapses!”

“So we can use the words big-chested and brainless to describe you!” Nian Lu retaliated.

Lei Peng said proudly, “The greatest tragedy is to look like a female but be flat-chested.”

Nian Lu was furious. “You look like a female! I am handsome! You have no taste and accuse others, I think that you don’t want to leave!”

Lei Peng curled his pinky and said with a snicker, “Come! Let’s fight! If you don’t, you’re a girl!”

The furious Nian Lu howled, “You’re a girl!”

The two started to fight without another word.

Ma Fan chewed his grass and ignored the two fighting furiously around him. He looked idly at the sky with an expression of pleasure.

Moments later, he stood up and spat out the grass in his mouth. He dusted off his clothes and said lazily, “Let’s go, stop playing around, we need to work. Two mo marshals have come a long way, we need to give them some face, we cannot let them leave disappointed!”

The surrounding battalion members puffed out their chests. Each of them had excited expressions.

There were many people among them that had followed Ma Fan to fight Xu Kong Temple, but Ma Fan Battalion was much stronger than they were in the past.

Looking at his members, Ma Fan smiled freely. He was full of confidence.

Brring, brring, brring!

Sharp alarms constantly started to sound. This meant that the enemy were within three hundred li of them. In the sky, scouts were flying at high speed, some of them landing and others taking off.

The defense line made from seal formations started to light up and the battalion members started to move at high speed

The atmosphere suddenly became heavy.

The battle was about to start at any moment!

———

The roiling black sea was endless

The inky black sea water gave off an unique odor that was noxious. Even weirder was that the odor was extremely permeable. Even though they stayed inside the transportation ships, that faint odor could not be avoided.

The black sea moved relentlessly as though there were monsters moving beneath. The strong wind on the surface was as sharp as blades. Those that were slightly weaker could not leave the ship’s cabin.

Zuo Mo and the others stood at the front of the boat, ignoring the howling wind.

“Such a strong wind!” Ceng Lian’er sighed in surprise. Her long hair danced in the wind like black snakes. Her floor-length red dress did not move at all and made her seem weirdly beautiful.

“It really is rare.” Wei Sheng nodded. When the wind came near him, it would silently disappear.

Zuo Mo rubbed his chin and looked around. He murmured to himself, “If we can find astral fiends in here, they would be high grade!”

He motioned towards the sea, and a dragon of water rose out. It flew in front of Zuo Mo and turned into a black ball of water.

After inspecting the black ball of water, Zuo Mo said thoughtfully, “This black water is very strange and is full of yin energy. There is nothing in the water, but why is it black?”

He handed the water ball to Lil’ Pagoda. Lil’ Pagoda’s head shook like a rattledrum. It clearly disliked the black water. Zuo Mo was even more puzzled. Lil’ Pagoda had digest yinyang and the five elements, meaning it could digest almost everything. Theoretically, no matter what kind of water it was and because water was within the five element,s it should be within the boundaries of what Lil’ Pagoda could absorb.

But Lil’ Pagoda expressed a rare repulsion.

This guy was not a picky eater. Something that even a glutton who ate everything did not like, this was interesting!

Suddenly, Zong Ru opened his eyes, his dried-out finger pointing in a direction. “What is that?”

Everyone looked along Zong Ru’s finger and all showed surprise.

Not far away in the sky, a thin green strand floating in the air. This green strange was extremely thin and difficult to detect if one did not look closely. The strong wind did not damage it at all. The green strange moved along the wind.

No one could name it. Even a fanatic about treasure like Zuo Mo could not recognize what that green strand really was.

Suddenly, Zuo Mo felt a slight pain on his hand. He looked down and saw Lil’ Black on his hand furiously waving its antennae.

Zuo Mo stilled and then had an expression of ecstasy.

Treasure!

It definitely was some treasure!

“Fly in that direction!” Zuo Mo promptly shouted at the top of his lungs.

Hearing his command, the transportation ship immediately turned and flew in the direction of the green strand. Wei Sheng and the others knew Little Mo Ge well. Something that could make Little Mo Ge this excited was definitely outstanding. Anticipation flashed across their faces.

It did not seem far yet the ship flew for a full two hours.
