Transmigrating into Murong Fu, may you have many children and much happiness.

Chapter 211 The Sinking Ship, Chapter 52: Killing Cai Jing

Murong Fu's family members exchanged glances and laughed. The young master had broken through, so this cannon was indeed no longer needed.

Everyone rushed back to put out the fire.

Only a few children remained on the shore, watching Murong Fu soar into the sky.

"Wow, Daddy can fly!"

"Idiot, this is a grandmaster."

"This is clearly Daddy."

"Father is a Grandmaster now; only Grandmasters can fly..."

As Murong Fu walked in the air, many different thoughts came to mind.

"So high, even higher than when I flew as a kite."

Is this the realm of a Grandmaster?

Although Murong Fu had defeated a grandmaster long ago, he relied on the overwhelming nature of his invisible sword energy to break through the sweeper monk's qi barrier.

Although he already possessed strength comparable to a grandmaster, he was not a grandmaster after all, and there were many special abilities of grandmasters that he could not use.

Take, for example, walking on air.

Flying has always been the dream of humans, terrestrial creatures. That's why he immediately took to the sky on a kite after mastering the lightness technique of "Treading on the Moon and Leaving Fragrance".

Unfortunately, the effects of the Forgetfulness Pill haven't worn off yet, so I'm not feeling happy.

If I were in my normal state, would I be so enraged that I completely ignore my happiness, or would happiness temporarily suppress my rage?

Murong Fu didn't bother to argue anymore, because he had already reached the airspace above the fleet, at a position of more than a hundred feet.

The fleet below was completely unaware that a small black dot in the sky was actually a person.

Even if someone sees it, they'll just think they're seeing things, or that it's some kind of bird.

Suddenly, someone noticed that the black dot was growing rapidly.

The soldiers on lookout duty on the neighboring ship had just spotted a shadow when they heard a loud crack.

Murong Fu had already crashed into the ship next to him. Then, wood chips splintered and scattered everywhere.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

Of these dozens of ships, most were medium-sized vehicle ships, about ten meters long and two meters wide, which were paddlewheel warships.

The remaining ships were the main warships, which were 25 meters long and 4 to 5 meters wide, with iron-clad bows and floating platforms on both sides, and were called seagoing ships.

Murong Fu trampled on a sea raft. This type of ship has a split design with watertight compartments, so even if one or two holes are made and water gets in, it will not affect the ship's movement.

However, Murong Fu activated his inner energy, forming a semi-circular energy shield around himself. Therefore, when he crashed into the ship, he did not make contact with his legs, but rather the entire semi-circular energy shield directly impacted the hull. Murong Fu crashed into the sea, directly breaking the entire Haijuan ship in two.

With the keel broken and scattered, the ship naturally fell silent.

The fewer than two hundred soldiers on board all fell into the water, struggling, sinking, and fighting for survival in the raging waves caused by the impact.

After falling into the water, Murong Fu used his internal energy to create a sealed space around himself. After glancing at the scenery in the lake, he quickly surfaced again.

Standing quietly on the water's surface.

"monster!"

"It was a monster that sank the warship!"

The lookout, who had just witnessed something fall and sink a nearby warship, roared in despair.

He recounted the scene of seeing the monster.

Murong Fu was sharp-eared and sharp-eyed; he could not miss the slightest movement within a hundred feet of him.

He appeared before the emotionally distraught soldier like a gust of wind, or a beam of light, and said:

"You saw me?"

What brings you to Canhe Village?

The soldier was terrified; his Adam's apple bobbed, his eyes gradually lost focus, and he fainted.

Murong Fu was devoid of emotion at this moment, so he couldn't feel any disappointment or speechlessness. He then found the highest-ranking officer on the ship, who had fought alongside the Song army in Xiangyang and would naturally recognize people.

He then flashed in front of him, grabbed him by the neck, and dragged him to the bow of the ship.

He then said coldly, "What brings you to Canhe Village?"

Then, using his Dragon-Capturing Skill, he grabbed a knife from a distance with his right hand and casually unleashed sword energy.

It also cut the ship he was on diagonally into two pieces.

The rumbling sound of breaking timber was caused by the water waves squeezing and breaking it as the ship sank.

"I'll tell you, I'll tell you!" The officer wasn't exactly a pushover; he immediately kowtowed repeatedly while giving Murong Fu the answer he wanted:

"It was Lord Cai Jing. Lord Cai Jing led our navy to Yanziwu and Canhezhuang to wipe out the rebel Murong Fu."

Although Murong Fu remained expressionless, he knew in his heart that he had experienced this situation far too many times in the past.

"Murong Fu has rebelled?"

"I don't know... I was just following orders, I didn't know anything."

Murong Fu did not make things difficult for the officer; they were indeed acting under orders.

The enemy is not here, not even on that huge official ship.

Murong Fu had already spotted the luxurious official ship half a mile away.

They even saw the middle-aged man in official robes at the bow of the ship, looking in their direction.

The enemy is not him; the enemy is in Bianjing (Kaifeng).

Murong Fu knew that these soldiers knew nothing, but their attack on his Canhe Village was not something that could be easily dismissed.

So, Murong Fu stepped into the air and landed on a nearby ship, this time unleashing the Five Star Sword Qi with his true sword.

Now that Murong Fu has reached the Grandmaster level, his aura surges like a river and is as powerful as the sea. The Overlord Sword no longer has the previous limit on the number of uses, and the Righteous Sword can now extend to a distance of ten zhang, which is more than thirty meters.

With a gentle wave, the entire ship split into two sections again; with another wave, it became four pieces.

During this time, some soldiers were cut in half at the waist, but most of them fell into the water.

But regardless, Murong Fu no longer cared.

He is now a heartless, destructive machine.

Four, five, six, fifty-one, fifty-two!

All fifty-two warships sank into Taihu Lake.

The power of a grandmaster is terrifying!

By this time, the official ship carrying Cai Jing had already noticed something was wrong and had begun to flee.

Although Murong Fu claimed to have destroyed fifty-two warships, it took less than half an incense stick's time, so Cai Jing's official ship naturally couldn't go very far either.

Half an incense stick's time had passed when Cai Jing was still sipping tea. Suddenly, he heard a commotion and frowned, asking:

"Who is making a fuss? What is causing this disturbance?"

His guard hurriedly said, "Sir, a ship has sunk."

"Hmm?" Cai Jing's brows furrowed further, and he asked in a deep voice, "Where?"

Then the guard stood at the bow of the ship and pointed.

Cai Jing stepped forward and saw the second ship begin to sink, followed by the third and fourth.

Cai Jing realized something was wrong and immediately shouted, "Retreat! Pass on my order to retreat!"

The people on the ship were then mobilized and the retreat began immediately.

A profound fear rose within Cai Jing, and he muttered to himself:

"How could this happen? How could this happen?"

Before he came, he had researched Murong Fu and knew that he was the leader of the martial arts world in the Central Plains and had many skilled subordinates.

However, he was confident that no matter how high his martial arts skills were, he was still afraid of being burned by fire.

The plan was to reach a suitable distance and then continuously bombard the area with fire- and poisoned arrows and crossbow bolts, killing everyone in the entire Canhe Village without leaving a single one alive.

Although those officials didn't possess the ability to kill a man in ten steps, the common people and skilled fighters who died at their hands...

They are no less numerous than those so-called experts.

They are adept at using their overwhelming power to suppress people, leaving them unable to breathe or make a sound.

But... he never expected that Murong Fu had some kind of trick up his sleeve that allowed him to sink the ship half a mile from the shore...

A water ghost? Or what?

"* Murong Fu, that treacherous traitor, is too ruthless. I must return to the capital and petition the Emperor to bring in more soldiers."

"Must be beheaded and displayed to the public! No, torn apart by five horses!!"

"Does Lord Cai have a grudge against Murong Fu?"

Suddenly, Cai Jing heard a faint voice beside him and subconsciously said, "I have never seen that thief."

"Huh?!?!" Cai Jing suddenly felt something was wrong, looked up and found a young man who didn't look like a human standing next to him.

Scattered at his feet were the heads and blood of his guards, the warm blood flowing onto the soles of his shoes, which startled him and made him take two steps back.

"Who are you?!" Cai Jing exclaimed in terror, then looked around and shouted, "Guards! Guards!!!"

Strangely, the only sounds on the ship, besides the howling wind, were his own heartbeats. The ship, which had been noisy just moments before, suddenly became deathly silent.

The young master said, "I have killed all your guards."

"I am Murong Fu. I heard you've been looking for me?"

Cai Jing had never seen such miraculous skill before, and his first instinct was to kneel down and cry out, "Hero, spare my life!"

But reason prevailed over his subconscious, and he calmly said, feigning composure:

"Yes, he is indeed a handsome man."

I have long admired Young Master Murong's reputation. His Majesty has sent me to invite you to the capital for a chat.

"To be granted land and made king is a piece of cake!"

Murong Fu looked at the other person's slightly trembling legs, a physiological reaction of an animal upon seeing its apex predator.

Out of control.

Then I looked at Cai Jing's hands, which were gripping the railing tightly and whose veins were bulging.

He said emotionlessly, "As expected of Lord Cai Jing, even on the verge of death, he can still lie through his teeth."

He then glanced at the two officials of Suzhou City kneeling on the ground. Although he had never met them before, Murong Fu knew their names as the prefect and the vice-prefect, and they matched the information on the favorability system in front of him.

He then asked, "Lord Chen, Lord Su, are you both here to arrest me as well?"

The two men were so frightened that they kowtowed repeatedly, but because of their large size, they could not kowtow as fast as an average person.

But he didn't stop moving, his attitude was commendable, and he didn't stop talking either, saying one thing after another:

"It was Lord Cai who arrested us, Young Master Murong, you must be right!"

"We are Young Master Murong's best friends, how could we possibly harm him? It's all because of Cai Jing, that corrupt official Cai Jing!!!"

Murong Fu then asked Cai Jing:

"Lord Cai, why did Zhao Xu want to kill me?"

Just as Cai Jing was about to speak, he suddenly heard Murong Fu say again:

"Forget it, let's go to the capital together and ask him."

Upon hearing this, Cai Jing was overjoyed and was about to agree when he suddenly saw his perspective shift several times. Then he saw Murong Fu extending his large hand towards him, followed by... eternal darkness.
