Chapter 282

Qin Shiyue was very satisfied with Zhang Xiaohua's cooperation. The situation just now was really critical. If it wasn't for Zhang Xiaohua, he would have been poisoned to death on the ground. Therefore, on one hand, he was ruthless to Situ Yueming and Murong Jian, not letting them live. On the other hand, he was really grateful to Zhang Xiaohua from the bottom of his heart. It was a pity that Zhang Xiaohua was involved in an important matter that the leader of the Divine Sect cared about. Otherwise, he could have made the decision to let Zhang Xiaohua go.

Of course, what he said to Zhang Xiaohua just now was also sincere. He was not a gentleman who did not repay kindness. Qin Shiyue never thought of himself as a gentleman. However, he disdained to be ungrateful.

Everyone followed Lord Xu Jiao around the hall. On the other side of the island, there were a few smaller boats. Everyone sat separately. Although Xu Jiaotong lost her composure just now and didn't get close to Qin Shiyue again, she still chose to sit in the same boat as Qin Shiyue. Although one was surrounded by everyone and the other was standing silently at the bow of the boat, her eyes still secretly and inadvertently glanced over.

After everyone boarded the boat, Lord Xu Jiao gestured to a servant. The servant turned around and soon, a special signal flew into the air. Lord Xu Jiao smiled and said to Qin Shiyue, "Let's go now. Let the men disperse too. It's not good to fight with these navies who don't know the inside story. We might have to meet again in the next day."

Qin Shiyue nodded and said, "Lord Xu Jiao is very thoughtful.

I wonder if we … "

Lord Xu Jiao pointed to the other side of the lake and said, "When we settled down in Jingyue City, the Jiao Palace had already thought about it. Jingyue City isn't our territory, so we always feel like we're under someone else's control. This escape route was arranged long ago and hasn't been used for so many years. Lord Qin, you've got a taste of something new this time."

Qin Shiyue smiled bitterly and said, "Lord Xu Jiao is making fun of me. It's better not to have a taste of something new."

Everyone roared with laughter, and the slightly tense atmosphere was swept away.

On the opposite side of the lake was the back of the manor. It was impossible to reach from either side of the manor on land. The Xu Jiao King purposely left a waterway here, which was blocked by an iron fence. After the small boat passed through, a servant closed the fence. The small boat traveled for a while and entered a rugged bend. Jing Yue City was the estuary of the river. There were many waterways in the city, which were densely packed like a spider web. Under the control of an experienced servant, the small boat quickly passed through many waterways and arrived at a secluded place.

On the shore, the family members had already prepared horses. Even the horse that Qin Shiyue rode over was among them. The Xu Jiao King smiled and said, "Lord Qin, please get on the horse. We'll make plans after we leave the city."

Qin Shiyue nodded with a smile and took the lead to get on the horse. Then, under the leadership of the Xu Jiao King, the group of people quickly left Jing Yue City. Originally, Zhang Xiaohua thought that since the navy was attacking the manor of the Xu Jiao King, why would they open the city gate?

However, things were out of her expectations. There was no interrogation at the city gate and they directly left. Zhang Xiaohua couldn't help but shake her head. This Murong Jian might really be doing this behind the back of General Lu and his seventh uncle's guard.

Seeing that there was no danger and they had safely left the city, Zhang Xiaohua's mind became active again. She was ready to find an opportunity to escape. Could it be that she had to follow Qin Shiyue to that Tenryū Sect?

Just as she was thinking, Qin Shiyue asked, "Lord Xu Jiao, may I ask where are we going?"

The Xu Jiao King said with a smile, "Lord Qin, don't be alarmed. This old man originally wanted to let you do your job well in Jing Yue City. Who would have thought that such a big mistake would happen? Naturally, we can't stay in Jing Yue City any longer.

The things that Lord Sect Leader needs are being transported here by sea. Why don't we go to the sea and welcome them? I think that after you receive the things, you should go to the South Sea Serpent Palace. Since you're already here, I won't be able to live with myself if I don't do my part as a host. "

Qin Shiyue nodded and said with a smile, "Lord Xu Jiao King, you didn't plan to let me go to the South Sea Serpent Palace. This time, no matter what, you have to let me go to the South Sea Serpent Palace to take a look."

The Xu Jiao King said, "It's all this old man's negligence. I just wanted to let you finish your task as soon as possible, but I neglected it. I should accept my punishment."

Then, he looked at Xu Jiaotong and said, "Lord Qin, this time you know the way. If you're free in the future, you can come often."

How could Qin Shiyue not know what he meant? She said repeatedly, "Of course, of course, I will come often."

When Xu Jiaotong heard this, she was also full of smiles and lowered her head to accompany her.

Although Zhang Xiaohua didn't follow behind Qin Shiyue, he had already vaguely heard through his divine sense that they were going to the sea. He couldn't help but be moved when he heard that they were going to go to the sea. The last time he came back from the seaside with his second brother, the accountant of the escort agency told him about the magnificence of the sea. He regretted that he hadn't seen the sea for a long time. Now, he was going to go to the sea. If he could really experience the feeling of the sea, how could he refuse?

The thought of running away just as it arose in his heart disappeared immediately. Anyway, he already had the ability to escape from Qin Shiyue. It didn't matter if he stayed here for a while. He would go to the South Sea first and enjoy the journey with Qin Shiyue. It wouldn't be too late for him to escape when he got tired of it.

The group went out of the city. They didn't go along the main road. Instead, they found a familiar path. After running for a while, they came to a place with lush trees and hills. Lord Xu pointed at a low-lying place with his whip and said, "Lord Qin, please look. Between those two hills is the secret harbor of our South Sea Dragon Palace."

Sure enough, when they turned around the hill, they saw several large ships. Zhang Xiaohua thought to himself, "Are these the ships that go to the sea?"

Everyone abandoned their horses and got on the ship. Their families led their horses to another ship. Then, they raised the sail and the anchor and sailed out of the harbor.

When the ship left the harbor, Zhang Xiaohua found that the ship was sailing on a wide river. The place they had just sailed out of was a rather hidden place where the river flowed back. If they hadn't just come out of that place, how could they believe that there was a harbor between two bare hills?

Not long after, there were many boats on the river, big and small. Some went down with the current, and some went against the current. It was really lively. It was Zhang Xiaohua's first time on a boat, and it was a novel experience for her. She stood by the side of the boat and looked around.

The river was very gentle, and the ship was quite big. It didn't shake very much. Zhang Xiaohua was a little surprised. In the books, it was said that ships swayed violently on the water. Those who had never been on a ship would get seasick easily. However, she didn't feel it at all.

Lord Xu stood at the bow of the ship with Qin Shiyue and said, "Lord Qin, this is your first time on the sea, right?"

Qin Shiyue nodded and said, "The Divine Sect is located in a vast area. It's hard to have a chance to go to the sea. We don't even travel on the water."

Lord Xu smiled and said, "That's good. This time, you can see the scenery of the sea. Besides, I'm a little tired. I'll go to the cabin to rest. Alas, I'm old. My body is unforgiving."

Then, he turned his head and said, "Jiaotong, come here and tell Lord Qin about the interesting things on the sea."

When he saw Xu Jiaotong coming forward shyly, he cupped his hands and turned to enter the cabin.

Qin Shiyue and Xu Jiaotong stood at the bow of the ship, pointing and laughing. Xu Jiaotong gradually got rid of her shyness and smiled brightly. Zhang Xiaohua wanted to listen to some of the experiences on the sea, but as she listened, she became sentimental. Zhang Xiaohua was too embarrassed to listen anymore. She walked to the stern of the ship and enjoyed the scenery on the river.

After a while, the ship left the sea. Seagulls soared, and the sea and sky met. The magnificent scenery made Zhang Xiaohua dumbfounded. In the past, she only saw this scenery in books and didn't feel anything. Now, it seemed like it was ten thousand times more intense than what was described. Suddenly, Zhang Xiaohua had a feeling. The world was so beautiful, and life was so beautiful. If she was lucky enough to travel through thousands of mountains and rivers, how happy would it be?

Looking at the boundless sea, Zhang Xiaohua released her divine sense without limit. Her state of mind was also constantly improving. At this moment, Zhang Xiaohua felt that she was going to fly with the wind!

Perhaps it was because of the vast sea, or the improvement of her state of mind, Zhang Xiaohua felt that her divine sense seemed to be a little stronger, and the range it covered was slightly larger. However, the sea was not as thick as the land. It seemed to be very sticky, and it was difficult for her divine sense to penetrate it. She probed down, but it was difficult to go deep. However, on the boundless sea, her divine sense was a little short. At a glance, the countless stars on the horizon were motionless black dots, which couldn't be seen by her divine sense alone.

Zhang Xiaohua understood that the motionless black dots were the distant ship. It was because it was very far away that she couldn't feel its movement.

At this moment, the sea was a little rough, and the ship was bobbing up and down. From time to time, waves hit the side of the ship. A salty and fishy smell came, which made Zhang Xiaohua feel very refreshed.

After a while, she saw a huge ship coming from the other side. It was approaching them. Zhang Xiaohua was stunned. Was this still a ship?

Compared to the ship she was on, hers could only be called a small boat.

When the huge ship got closer, the Xu Jiao King walked out of the cabin. He looked at the dumbfounded Qin Shiyue with a smile and said, "Lord Qin, please. This is the ship that we should take when we go out to sea. This is just a river boat that sent us here. This ship is too deep in the water, and we can't go to the area around Jingyue City."

Soon, a basket was thrown down from the huge ship, and the people on the small boat were lifted up one by one. Zhang Xiaohua got on the huge ship, and her footing was very stable. There were no bumps and ups like when she was on the small boat. At this moment, the Xu Jiao King explained to Qin Shiyue again, "The sea is the most turbulent, and it's not as calm as the estuary. A river boat is small, and it's only suitable for the river. If it's in the sea, it'll be overturned by a single wave. If you don't take this huge ship, you can't go out to sea no matter what."

Qin Shiyue sighed and said, "Read 65,555 books and travel 65,555 miles. If you don't go to the sea, how can you see such a huge ship?"
