There were no problems aboard the ship. Everything proceeded as expected, and the voyage could be considered a success. However, as they neared the Shi Empire, the ship's captain appeared to warn the crew to be extra vigilant.At the bow of the vessel, Song Que was admiring the bright moonlit scenery alongside Gong Hye. From there, he could clearly observe the unusual activity among the sailors. Closing his eyes, he spread out his divine sense to investigate further.“We've entered a dangerous region,” Song Que muttered seriously.“Is it so dangerous that even Brother Song feels uncertain?” Gong Hye asked, anxiety appearing on her face.“It isn't that I'm uncertain,” Song Que replied while gently stroking her head. “I'm merely saying that we're currently in an unfavorable situation.”Suddenly, Gong Hye giggled.“Hehehe, I was only joking! If Brother Song is uncertain, then that person must be incredibly powerful. But if Brother Song is confident, then they are probably just weak oppon

Slash! Slash! Slash!Song Que moved with astonishing speed, unleashing three consecutive strikes in three different directions.As the enemies charged toward him with their various weapons raised high, a terrifying force echoed across the battlefield.Before their attacks could even touch Song Que, they were shattered apart.Bodies split in two.Crimson blood sprayed through the air like a scarlet rain, creating a horrifying and tense spectacle.Shadowy figures identical to Song Que danced among the pirates, cutting them down one after another.Meanwhile, his real body remained standing calmly at the far end of the ship beside Gong Hye, who watched everything unfold.“Brother Song is incredible! You can even split your body!” Gong Hye exclaimed in admiration.Her face was filled with awe and amazement.Song Que smiled proudly.“This is a power that was bestowed upon me. Unfortunately, I have no intention of becoming two people when serving you girls.”As he spoke, he gently lifted Gon

“Father…”A gentle voice, soft as a spring breeze, drifted through the door.The moment Zhou Yang heard it, he immediately rose from his chair and walked toward the entrance.He had long missed hearing that voice.Countless times, it had echoed in his dreams and lingered in his ears.Yet when he reached the door, he stopped.Standing silently behind it, he seemed almost reluctant, like a father pretending to sulk.“I’m home, Father!”Zhou Ruyu called out brightly.She reached for the unlocked door, ready to push it open.Beside her, Song Que merely smiled.He already knew Zhou Yang was standing behind the door, waiting.“Welcome home, my daughter.”Zhou Yang whispered from the other side.Joy, relief, and emotion blended together in his heart.He paused briefly, gathering himself before finally opening the door.The door swung open.There stood Zhou Ruyu, her sweet smile as radiant as ever.Beside her, Song Que wore a warm expression, happy to witness the reunion.Zhou Yang fought bac

Ji Mon laughed in satisfaction after defeating Song Que, the swordsman who had previously been famous for easily defeating Wu Nayan. Smiling broadly, he thought, "Wu Nayan, even the man who defeated you has now fallen by my hand. Can you see this from wherever you are?" He gazed at the twinkling stars in the night sky, his heart overflowing with pride.Then his eyes shifted downward and discovered a gleaming sword lying on the ground. Filled with admiration, he picked up the legendary Qilin Scale Sword."What an extraordinary sword. Even without a sword spirit, it is still a remarkable weapon," he said while laughing happily.He was about to store the sword inside his storage ring. However, before it could be put away, a mysterious figure flashed past him with incredible speed. In that instant, the Qilin Scale Sword disappeared.Ji Mon felt a chilling cold pierce through his abdomen. Looking down, he saw blood seeping from a wound in his stomach, slowly stiffening under the cold night

Number Nine glared at Number Seven, anger radiating from the green light surrounding him.“I can handle this matter myself. I don’t need your interference, Number Seven!”The Golden Light raised a hand, cutting off the argument before it could escalate further.“Enough! We must all work together to find the murderer and avenge the deaths of Number Twelve and Number Eleven. We are one organization—do not forget that!”The ten lights nodded obediently, realizing how important unity was in the face of the threat looming over them.Number Ten looked at Number Nine with a determined gaze.“I’ll help later,” he said firmly.Then he shifted to another matter, his tone filled with excitement.“Master, we’ve already found traces of the two Wind Spirits and the Wood Spirit!” he reported proudly.The golden light, representing their Master, smiled in satisfaction.“Good,” he said, his voice gentle yet filled with authority.“Have you begun making your move? The coming full moon will coincide wit
