“Master…”
“Chef!” greeted Shen Ying as she hurled the tree into the water. Pulling the two men along with her, she jumped into the river. “Start the boat quickly, go, go, go!”
“Master, what happened?”
“Eugh!”
Before Shen Ying could explain further, Lonemoon, who was holding onto the floating tree trunk, started vomiting his guts out. He learnt for the first time that, in addition to airsickness, seasickness and motion sickness, there was also running sickness. That idiot Shen Ying had been running way too fast.
“I’ve no time to explain, row quickly!” urged Shen Ying.
Despite his bafflement, Yi Qing nevertheless obediently conjured a wind seal. Immediately the three of them floated towards the center of the river. Standing atop the tree trunk, the three of them finally reached the center of the river.
Suddenly they heard an angry roar from the river bank, “Stop, you two rascals!”
A figure clad in blue suddenly appeared on the banks. The immortal Qi enveloping its body was so dense that it stunned even Ge You. With widened eyes and an incredulous expression on his face, he asked, “Young Emperor Xun, why are you here?” Xun Shu hardly ever stepped out of his Shang Dong Immortal Residence.
But Xun Shu ignored him. Instead, he picked up a piece of a fallen leaf on the river bank and conjured a hand seal. Instantly the small leaf transformed into a huge leaf. Xun Shu threw the leaf into the water and jumped on top of it. Then, he steered the leaf boat and headed towards the three Invincible Sect members, all the while roaring, “Where do you think you’re going? Come back!”
Ge You: “…” What’s happening?
“Holy shit!” Turning back to look, Lonemoon’s green face instantly turned white with fear. “How did he manage to catch up so quickly? Shen Ying, I thought you lost him?” Then in a frantic tone, he urged Yi Qing, “Chef, quickly, go like the wind, don’t stop!”
“But you were the one who’s been telling me not to run so fast!” retorted Shen Ying, rolling her eyes. Otherwise, Xun Shu would not have caught up to them.
“Bloody hell! You call that running? That was teleportation!” Lonemoon felt like puking. Taking a deep breath, he said, “Besides, why did you pull out that entire tree?”
“Because you kept saying, the tree, the tree… That’s why I went back to pull it up!”
“Did I say tree? I meant the tree leaf!” Next time, can you listen properly before you act?
“…” You gave the wrong instructions and now you blame me!
“OK, forget it, help to row will you!” Giving Shen Ying a push, Lonemoon exhorted, “Quickly, once we enter Yu Feng Immortal City, we’ll be safe. Only sword immortals can enter that city, he won’t be able pursue us any further.”
At the same time he conjured a wind seal. Immediately a strong gust of wind rushed towards them, causing the whole tree to shoot like an arrow towards the sword Qi enshrouded bank opposite. Once they entered Yu Feng Immortal City they would be safe once they entered ….
Five minutes later, they reached Yu Feng Immortal City.
The three of them gazed at the man standing before them. Dressed in blue robes which were splattered with dirt, his entire body exuded a murderous vibe.
Lonemoon: “…”
Shen Ying: “…”
Yi Qing: “…”
There was a dead silence.
“Heh… heh heh… heh heh heh!”

You must be kidding me!
Why hadn’t anyone told him that Xun Shu was also a sword immortal!
“Run, continue running!” Xun Shu’s seductive face was filled with anger. Glaring daggers at them, he snorted. “Hmh! I’ve never met such shameless people like you!” They had not only destroyed the best-quality immortal sword he had, they even dared to pull out his Winter Spirit tree. He would never rest until he had removed every one of their hides!
“Heh heh heh, … Xun… Young Emperor, I just want to tell you… Would you believe us if we told you we didn’t mean to pull out your tree?”
“Hmph!” Xu Shu snorted coldly, his whole body trembling with rage. “If you were me, would you believe it?”
