Chaotic World of Martial Arts: I Have a Spirit Pearl of Desire

"What?! Go back?!"

Lao Mu, Monkey, Da Kui, and A Shui were instantly struck dumb, completely stunned on the spot, even doubting whether there was something wrong with their ears.

The brothers ahead launched a piercing arrow; it was a critical moment, a matter of life and death.

Chen You, as the leader, actually chose to back down and return home?

If this gets out, people will question it!

"Didn't you understand? I said, go back!!"

Chen You turned around, his deep, cold eyes sweeping over the four of them. He exuded a suffocating aura and shouted sharply!

"...Yes!" Old Mu and the others trembled.

Although his mind was filled with shock and confusion, he dared not disobey Chen You's absolute authority. He could only grit his teeth, turn the boat around, and quickly row back the way he came.

Along the way, the river flowed swiftly.

Several patrol boats belonging to the Luo family in the distance rushed toward the direction of the distress signal after seeing the Cloud Piercing Arrow, but Chen You's boat was going against the flow of people, which looked extremely strange.

They hadn't rowed far when two warships sped towards them. They were Luo Sanqian and Sun Xian, two other patrol squad leaders under Chen You.

"Brother Chen!"

The two men stood at the bow of the boat and bowed to each other from a distance.

After the ceremony, both of them had furrowed their brows, their faces filled with bewilderment and surprise.

The arrow that pierced the clouds clearly exploded in the direction of the boat, so why did Brother Chen drive the boat in the opposite direction to the rear?

"Brother Chen, something big has happened over there, shouldn't we..." Luo Sanqian couldn't help but ask.

Chen You raised his hand to interrupt him, his eyes cold and deep, and said in a tone that left no room for doubt: "You two, bring all your men and come with me."

"this…………"

Luo Sanqian and Sun Xian exchanged a glance, both seeing shock and hesitation in each other's eyes.

Ignoring the distress call from the Piercing Arrow is a major taboo in the gang rules.

Now, Chen You not only refuses to rescue people, but also wants to mobilize the strength of their two teams to go back with him.

"Didn't you understand? Hurry up!!"

Chen You's face appeared cold and hard as iron in the river mist, and his tone exuded a chilling and domineering aura that brooked no dissent.

The next moment, the ship accelerated, like a ferocious beast breaking through the waves, and rushed out first.

Sun Xian and Luo Sanqian looked at each other, completely clueless about what Chen You was up to.

Ignoring the signal is already a violation of gang rules. If it delays important matters, no one can bear the blame from above.

However, no matter how strict the rules of the gang are, they can't supersede the boss right in front of you.

On this river, Chen You is their everything!

The two men steeled themselves, gritted their teeth, and waved to their gang members behind them, shouting, "What are you all standing there for? Turn the boat around and follow Brother Chen's boat!!"

"yes!"

Although the gang members behind them were full of doubts, they could only loudly agree.

The three warships traced three sharp arcs on the river surface, quickly merged together, and broke through the waves to return.

After driving for a while, the waves on the river gradually subsided.

Chen You stood at the bow of the ship, turned around, and slowly swept his cold gaze over the more than twenty men on the three ships behind him.

These twenty-odd people were all skilled and capable, and at this moment they all looked doubtful, hesitant to speak.

Chen You pressed down on the black sand blade on his back, his qi and blood subtly calming, an invisible pressure emanating from him. He shouted sharply, "I know you're all wondering why we didn't go to the rescue when there was a warning arrow! But I tell you, we have a very important mission today! What's ahead is just a diversionary tactic by the enemy; sending more people will only lead to disaster!"

At this point, Chen You's eyes suddenly turned incredibly sharp: "Listen up! From this moment on, everyone is on high alert. No one is allowed to leave the group! Anyone who dares to leave without permission or make any unusual moves will be executed!!!"

The moment the word "斩" (cut) was uttered, the air seemed to freeze.

Chen You did this precisely to completely eliminate the possibility of someone in the team secretly tipping them off.

The crowd was awestruck by his resolute killing intent; any wavering in their hearts vanished instantly. They straightened their backs and shouted in unison, "We will obey Brother Chen's orders! We dare not leave the team!"

"Alright!" A cold glint flashed in Chen You's eyes. "Everyone, hold your breath and follow me!!"

Led by Chen You, the three ships silently deviated from the regular patrol waterway, passed through a hidden reed bed, and headed straight for the private code of the Hundred Refinements Armory on the river!

A moment later, under the cover of night and the thin mist on the river, the group finally caught a glimpse of the giant black ship moored in a secluded spot at the dock.

Just then, a dull splashing sound came from the water in another direction.

Several warships bearing the Luo family's insignia were converging on this side at an extremely fast speed.

Chen You gazed intently into the distance, the darkness unable to obscure his keen eyesight.

He immediately recognized the graceful and beautiful figure on the lead ship.

It was none other than Luo Haitang, the deputy instructor of the Luo Family Water Village!

"Hey, it's the deputy coach leading the team!" Luo Sanqian exclaimed with delight upon recognizing the newcomers.

The tension among his men immediately eased, and with the deputy instructor present, their confidence surged.

Chen You withdrew his gaze, glanced at his twenty-odd men behind him who were beaming with excitement, and said in a deep voice, "Listen up! According to the intelligence I've gathered over the past few days, this ship belonging to the Hundred Refinements Armory is not an ordinary cargo ship at all, but a black ship used for kidnapping and abducting people! Those imprisoned on board are all innocent women from poor families in the surrounding area!"

"What??"

"These beasts!"

Lao Mu, Luo Sanqian, Sun Xian, and the others were stunned, and then their eyes blazed with barely contained rage.

Everyone naturally knows about the recent disappearance of the woman.

I never dreamed that this was the work of the Hundred Refinements Armory.

Chen You gripped the black sand blade on his back, his eyes icy, and continued his mobilization: "As far as I know, there are only about forty guards on this ship! Now, with the deputy instructor's team attacking from both sides, we have the numerical advantage! In this battle, we must completely take them down, rescue those women, and thwart the Hundred Refinement Armory's conspiracy! Do you have confidence?"

"have!!"

More than twenty gang members were aroused and roared in unison in low voices, their fighting spirit soaring to its peak!

"Very good, go!"

At Chen You's command, the three warships, no longer concealing their movements, roared out of the waves like arrows released from a bow, heading straight for the enemy ship!

"Whoosh!"

As soon as the warships approached, Chen You's figure soared into the air like a roc spreading its wings. He lightly touched the water with his toes, rose several meters into the air, and landed steadily on the deck of the enemy ship.

"Who is it?"

From the shadows at the bow, a guard from the Hundred Refinements Armory, who was on patrol, was startled by the sound, shouted sharply, and drew his sword to step forward.

However, all that responded to him was a cold glint of light that seemed to pierce through the air!

Chen You flicked his right hand, and two throwing knives flew out in a blur, striking his opponent's throat with perfect accuracy.

"Pfft!!"

Blood splattered everywhere. The patrolling guard's eyes bulged out, and he gripped the throwing knife to his neck with both hands. Before he could even let out a scream, he collapsed heavily to the ground.

"Whoosh!"

Immediately afterwards, Luo Sanqian, Sun Xian, Lao Mu and others jumped onto the ship like tigers among sheep, their feet striking the deck with a dull thud.

"Oh no! Enemy attack! Enemy attack!!!"

Just then, the guards deep inside the ship finally spotted the uninvited guests and started shouting hysterically. The urgent alarm shattered the tranquility of the river.

"Whoosh!" Chen You's eyes narrowed, and the throwing knife in his hand shot out like lightning once again!

Unfortunately, the guard who shouted was extremely cunning; he suddenly ducked his head and narrowly avoided a fatal blow.

Using the cover, he scrambled and crawled deeper into the cabin, still shouting for help.

Inside the ship's cabin, in a luxuriously furnished room.

Stanley Tong, the former strategist of the Black Shark Gang, was leisurely sipping a cup of hot tea.

Hearing the noise and shouts outside, his hand holding the teacup trembled.

The door was flung open, and two soaking wet guards rushed in, kneeling on one knee, cold sweat pouring down their faces: "Master, something terrible has happened! It's...it's the Luo family, they've sneaked up here!!"

Stanley Tong frowned slightly and put down his teacup: "How could that be? Didn't the instructor deliberately lure them away?"

"It's true! Several of our brothers in the front cabin have already died!" The guard's voice trembled. "The leader... the kid who's leading them, it's Chen You!"
