Chapter 253 Mermaids Block the Way
A tall, muscular young man with brown hair and a cold expression complained, "Yu's ability to control the wind is the best among us, so why does he also need to use the Lightness Technique?"

"At this rate, we won't be able to catch up with that female cultivator at all."

Jin Yuan glanced at Yan Huoyi and said, "When the Feathered Clan spreads their wings, they become too conspicuous and will attract the attention of the Human Clan."

However, Yanhuoyi's words also make sense; they are being left behind.

After a moment's thought, he said, "I will lead the Merfolk to pursue them by water, and you can provide support from behind, is that alright?"

The young man from the Feather Clan nodded: "We will follow Lord Jin Yuan's arrangements."

Yan Huoyi gave a perfunctory "hmm," a lukewarm response with a hint of sarcasm, "Then we'll have to rely on your Merfolk."

The Yanhuo tribe inherently dislikes water, and the idea of ​​going out to sea to intercept people was something the Yanhuo Yi were very unwilling to do. If it weren't for Li Shuo's threat that the Yanhuo tribe would voluntarily withdraw from the Quan Sect if they were unwilling to work for the sect, how could he possibly have accepted this thankless task?

Regardless of the internal strife within the Quan Sect, no extraordinary person would willingly leave the sect.

In the end, the Quanzong sect is still ruled by Zhu Bei and Li Shuo, and Yan Huoyi can only swallow his dissatisfaction.

Whether the task was performed well or not is another matter.

Aren't there quite a few people who failed their missions before? I really don't know what that woman Zhu Bei is up to, insisting on arguing with Luoxia Jushi's guest.

Don't they realize that most people who can be associated with the Hermit of Sunset Glow are not ordinary individuals? Haven't too many people been harmed in the past year?

It's a pity that within the Spring Sect, the Fire-Slaying Clan is outnumbered and unable to control the power. Instead, they are constantly used as pawns by other clans. Dangerous tasks are assigned to members of the Fire-Slaying Clan, who are then given the pretext that the Fire-Slaying Clan is the strongest among all the alien races within the Spring Sect. Bah!

He looked at Zhu Bei, Li Shuo, and several other merfolk, and their combat strength was not weak. Why didn't they send their merfolk to do dangerous missions?

The claim that the Merfolk are not good at fighting is clearly an excuse to preserve their own people.

Yan Huoyi sneered inwardly, but did not forget to use his Wind Control Technique to keep up with the speed of the Feather Clan disciples.

The sea surface shimmered, glistening with a cool mist.

The water rippled outwards in layers. Yu looked down at the swimming merfolk and thought to himself, "Once we reach the sea, it will be the territory that the merfolk are most familiar with. Their speed in water is no less than that of our Feather Clan in flight. In a few more hours, we should be able to catch up with that human female cultivator."

On the vast expanse of water, a lone awning boat was tossed about by the current. Ning Fusang heard the rushing water, which sounded like thunder.

She took out her binoculars and looked around, only then did she see the azure water flow, cut in half, and flowing vertically downhill.

"Fusang, what do you see?"

The silkworm wriggled its body and crawled to her side.

Ning Fusang put down the telescope, indicating that it should look for itself.

I've seen Ning Fusang use this precious silkworm spirit several times before, and I've always been very curious about it. It jumped in front of the telescope and looked out.

On the vast expanse of water, there was nothing. As the boat rocked, it finally saw a straight horizontal line. Beyond that line, there was no more water, but rather a series of continuous mountain ranges.

But with so much water, there must be a place to go. The silkworm spirit turned its head and whispered, "Is there a cliff ahead?"

The little black dragon, curled up on the flagpole of the water-controlling flag, suddenly spoke up: "I'll go and see how deep the water is."

Qian Yuan leaped into the water, and like a fish in water, quickly disappeared into the shadow of the covered boat.

Ning Fusang played with a bright blue silk fan, studying the purpose of this treasure.

The Twin Dragon Scissor-Shaped Lamp is for slaying sea beasts, the Xuanhuang Water-Controlling Flag can subdue waves, and the Pixiu House-Protecting Talisman is for activating protective barriers around a house. Only this Minggui Green Silk Fan remains undiscovered; the treasure Kuge has collected seems to be nothing more than a small, light silk fan. Ning Fusang placed the fan aside, slowing the speed of the awning boat until Qian Yuan returned from his scouting mission.

"Fusang, it seems like something is following us underwater. Is it a water spirit?"

Ning Fusang closed her eyes and sensed the surroundings. At that moment, a dull chiseling sound came from the bottom of the awning boat. She stood up at the bow, looked at the water, and coldly shouted, "Come out!"

Wow!

The girl threw her sword, and the awning boat flew high into the air, transforming into a small walnut boat that landed in her palm.

Ning Fusang stepped on an ordinary seventh-tier spirit sword, "Qing Suo," and made a sword incantation. Another spirit sword, "Hong Zi," flew out of the water, and a faint blood color spread across the water's surface.

A mermaid corpse drifted across the sea, swept by the current towards a cliff.

"So they're mermaids." The silkworm spirit's eyes widened, but then she realized something was wrong. "How come mermaids are in this area?"

Ning Fusang understood that the merman had been chased out of Shangling City.

Back then, she allowed the mermaid girl to leave Qingbo Cave Lake without pointing out that her departure was intended to allow her to reap the benefits one day and follow in the footsteps of the mermaids to find the ruins of the royal court.

But unexpectedly, she met the Bitter Song Deputy Envoy of the Merfolk and learned clues about the royal court ruins from him.

Ning Fusang didn't know why she would let the merman follow her, but she figured it was probably due to two factors: the Guixinzhai key and the Kuge Mansion.

Ning Fusang was more inclined to believe that the young man from Guixinzhai had revealed that he had taken the key that Kuge had entrusted to Guixinzhai.

After all, the fact that Ku Ge's mansion has stood in Shangling City for so long, and that the things he buried have never been taken by anyone else, shows how strong the barrier around his mansion is.

Even Ning Fusang couldn't guarantee that she could cleave through the mansion's barrier with a single sword strike.

Several merfolk emerged from the water and surrounded Ning Fusang. Jin Yuan gave the order: "Capture her alive!"

Lord Li Shuo said that she possesses secrets concerning the Merfolk race, therefore, even if he desperately wants to avenge his fallen kin, he must restrain himself.

The silkworm spirit stared wide-eyed in astonishment, somewhat doubting its own ears.

They want to capture Fusang?

But aren't they only at the sixth level of the cultivation realm?

Ning Fusang lifted her eyelids slightly, stood on the flying sword, her clothes fluttering, and called out, "Qianyuan."

Jin Yuan looked up at the girl riding a flying sword, her brows furrowing slightly. Did she have an accomplice?
After a long while, there was still no movement in the sky. Several elite members of the merfolk breathed a sigh of relief. Unbeknownst to anyone, a long black shadow was slowly approaching from the water.

"What's wrong? I suddenly have a feeling of unease."

"I'm also a little panicked."

Jin Yuan immediately ordered in a deep voice, "Without waiting for Yan Huoyi and the Feather Clan, make your move!"

A column of water shot into the sky and crashed into Ning Fusang. With just a light flick of her sword, she caused a continuous drizzle to fall on the water's surface.

She held back her strength in that sword strike because Qian Yuan didn't like eating corpses.

slam-la-

The sound of splashing in the water was exceptionally loud, and Jin Yuan realized something was wrong. Looking back, she saw several of her clansmen being swallowed whole by a dragon!
"A dragon?!" He was horrified, his voice trembling.
