After getting Jiang Chen's affirmative answer, Tang Shiya was so excited that she walked closer to him and kissed him on the right cheek gently. It was a bold thing to do. She flushed, her chest heaving up and down rapidly.
Jiang Chen touched his cheek. The confusion on his face started to disappear. Suddenly it dawned on him why he had been feeling so weird.
"Let's go."
Tang Shiya kept walking ahead, but closer to him.
"Okay."
Jiang Chen, already relieved, stopped struggling. Walking shoulder to shoulder with her, he said, "You seem to have changed a lot since we met for the first time in the Water Dragon City. "
Tang Shiya said seriously, "If I treated everyone in the same way, wouldn't it be terrible? "
"So I should feel honored?" Jiang Chen said, smiling.
"What do you think?" Tang Shiya got closer. She locked her arm in his, feeling very happy.
The dream girl of numerous men in the Realm of True Force was holding him tightly. Jiang Chen felt incredibly happy.
After dusk, the two arrived at the Sunset Light Gulf. It was a famous spot in the Realm of True Force. Endless possibilities were hiding at the bottom of the sea. There used to be a glorious country around this gulf. However, as time passed, only some old relics were left here.
Jiang Chen could still see many run-down buildings on the coastline. If one took a close look, it was possible to find the traces of a city that used to lie here.
According to Tang Shiya, the Sunset Light Gulf was not only a place for practicing, but also a place for treasure-seeking. However, after so many years of exploration, all of the treasures on the continent had been taken away. For the moment, people could only go under the sea to try their luck.
"This whole place belonged to that kingdom, from the gulf to that end. There are relics of many cities under the sea."
Pointing to the sea in front of them, Tang Shiya said, "There are also many shipwrecks. Someone found a big ship out there and got very rich."
Then she looked toward Jiang Chen. Seeing him hesitating, she said, "Do you still want to focus on practicing?"
"The big forces of the Realm of True Force would be humiliated if we could find treasures in only one month," Jiang Chen said.
"All right. Let's go to sea."
"Okay."
The two flew out of the gulf and over the sea. There were endless islands in the sea beyond the Sunset Light Gulf, where many fierce beasts were living, but the two weren't looking for them.
Also, many cruel villains and bandits were living on these islands to hide from the Sacred Martial Arts Institute and other powerful forces. The bandits were what they had come for. It wasn't Tang Shiya's idea, but the tradition of the forces of the Realm of True Force.
Young Venerables were expected to fight against these bandits to enhance themselves and gain more experiences of duels. Once they succeeded, what they would get was not only fame, but also the wealth of the bandits.
...
Jiang Chen didn't know that not long after he and Tang Shiya had flown out of the gulf, two groups had appeared in the Sunset Light Gulf.
One of them was from the Shangguans, and the other was from the Mad Dragon Dynasty. They had all come for Jiang Chen. Both forces had sent two Spiritual Venerables and a team formed by about ten Martial Venerables, all of whom were elites. They looked mighty and resolute. It was a strong squad, but they were only going to deal with a Martial Venerable. It seemed they were using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.
"If Jiang Chen had stayed in the Holy Martial Arts City, we wouldn't have had any chance to destroy him. However, since he left the city without anyone's protection, he is courting death," a Spiritual Venerable of the Shangguans said. Jiang Chen killed one of their young masters. A shoot-to-kill order was given when Jiang Chen set out for the Holy Martial Arts City.
"Mad Dragon Dynasty, Jiang Chen must have an extremely valuable treasure with him, powerful enough to kill Spiritual Venerables. Don't wake a sleeping giant when we find him," the other Spiritual Venerable of the Shangguans said loudly.
However, the reaction of those from the Mad Dragon Dynasty was very plain. The two Spiritual Venerables of theirs were wearing heavy armor. So were their Martial Venerables. Their Spiritual Venerables only nodded perfunctorily. Then they led their men into the sea.
"What a one-track mind these military men have."
"Whatever…. Let them handle Jiang Chen. Two dogs strive for a bone and a third runs away with it. Let's be the third dog."
Then, the Shangguans' team also left.
Jiang Chen and Tang Shiya had only just left an island. Not seeing any bandits there, they had only killed some fierce beasts. However, they had only started. If they had been able to find the bandits so early, these bandits living on the islands would have been extinguished a long time ago.
"Jiang Chen, look there."
Tang Shiya suddenly found something when they had been flying over the sea for a little while.
There was a giant ship far away, with its lights on.
"Let's go and see," Jiang Chen proposed. Tang Shiya and he flew over quickly. In approaching it, they found it was a commercial ship. Jiang Chen released his holy awareness. He found that the strongest people on the ship were only in the Reaching Heaven State. And he also found some corpses on the deck. The hulk was full of arrows. Everyone on the ship looked downcast.
Jiang Chen and Tang Shiya landed on the ship. Their appearance put these people on guard immediately. They approached them with weapons in hand, intending to surround them. However, they could see fear and timidity in these people's eyes.
"Don't worry. We're not bad people. We only want to ask for some information," Tang Shiya said.
Many of these people felt relieved, maybe because of the way Jiang Chen and Tang Shiya dressed. They didn't correspond to the enemy's image in their mind.
"Put your weapons down."
An emotional voice rang out. Then a large, middle-aged man ran over in haste. Glancing at Jiang Chen and Tang Shiya, he knelt down. "Young heroes, please help us!"
Since he had knelt down, the other people on the ship also knelt.
Jiang Chen and Tang Shiya were puzzled. They had no idea why these people had made such a request.
"Stand up. Tell us what happened," Jiang Chen said.
The middle-aged man got to his feet. He told them he was the captain of this ship, and the ship belonged to a chamber of commerce. The thing all sailors were afraid of happened to them – they had run into pirates.
"Then why are you here? You look fine," Jiang Chen said confusedly.
The middle-aged man explained to him. It turned out the boss of the chamber of commerce was traveling with them and so was his daughter, a girl of about 15 or 16 years of age. The ringleader of the pirate gang took a fancy to her. He wanted to marry her. He wanted the girl to accept his proposal, instead of forcing her into marriage. However, if she didn't accept, everyone on the ship would be killed.
The pirates would come back next morning.
Jiang Chen and Tang Shiya had come at a very bad time, when they were extremely desperate, but their appearance also brought them hope.
"What state are the best of those pirates in?" Jiang Chen asked.
"Martial Venerable. The preliminary stage of Martial Venerable." The captain glanced at Jiang Chen and Tang Shiya with care, afraid his answer would scare them off.
"We've started this journey to pick a fight with these pirates. We'll help you." Tang Shiya didn't take it seriously since their rivals didn't sound very strong.
The captain was pleasantly surprised. He kept expressing his gratitude to them and invited them into the cabin.
