Chapter 1838: A Safe Arrival
Mentor Zhou looked at everyone speechlessly, but he would believe them for the time being. He finally said with a nod, “Fine then, let’s pick up the pace and see if we can catch up to Wei Xu and them.”
Even though Wei Xu was heartless to him, he couldn’t pay back in kind!
Qiao Mu silently lowered her eyes.
Duanmu Qing coughed lightly and said, “We will do our best to sail faster, but we have no idea when this s.h.i.+p might go back?”
“What do you mean?”
“Duanmu is suggesting that it might have been sailing with the tide at the beginning. It might have to turn back after a while!”
Zhou Danjin’s eyes lit up. “You mean that this s.h.i.+p’s owner had especially come to rescue you guys? After escorting you to safety, the s.h.i.+p will immediately navigate back?”
Everybody nodded together. “That’s right, Mentor. It’s just as you said!”
Zhou Danjin promptly remarked with a smile, “Mentor does not know which master rescued you guys, but if there is the opportunity, Mentor would like to meet him to thank him properly.”
Everybody laughed dryly and subconsciously eyed Qiao Mu, who was standing quietly.
“Would you like some breakfast?”
“Yes, yes, yes!” Zhou Danjin immediately raised his hands in approval. He had been braving the winds and waves the whole night. It was simply an appalling experience.
He was still fine earlier, but his entire belly was rumbling now that breakfast was mentioned.
Soon, the golems served Mentor Zhou four kinds of pastries, four types of congee, and several appetizers. They were all placed in front of Mentor Zhou in a spread.
The mentor was moved and immediately teared up. He picked up a meat pastry with his chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth before sighing with emotion, “This breakfast is so sumptuous. I haven’t eaten such plentiful pastries and congee in years!”
That’s right, they had been thinking the same thing earlier.
Nowadays, only people who weren’t just simple nouveau riches could eat seven to eight different types of food for breakfast…
The s.h.i.+p traveled steadily for some time. When they could just about see the flag of one of Polan Prefecture’s cities on the horizon, Qiao Mu secretly ordered the golems to put on an act of returning back.
Everybody immediately leaped into the air to depart from the Scarlet Sky Breaker.
Zhou Danjin sighed with emotion as he stood in the air, watching the Scarlet Sky Breaker s.h.i.+p departing swiftly and steadily.
Tut tut, which master’s s.h.i.+p was this? It possessed such solid defense and speed that it would take a divine-realm expert a considerable amount of time to break past this s.h.i.+p’s defensive mechanisms.
As Zhou Danjin watched the Scarlet Sky Breaker disappear on the horizon, he was unaware that this nouveau riche senior he was wors.h.i.+pping was actually Qiao Mu.
Of course, he was even more oblivious to the fact that the water child had merely brought the Scarlet Sky Breaker back into Paradise Planet.
After continuing to fly forward, they glimpsed a gargantuan aerial centipede sprawling on the beach to rest.
Those civilians who had been in the large cabin had all gotten off the centipede’s back safely. However, many of them had run to the water to throw up the moment they got off.
There truly was no other choice. It had been a b.u.mpy ride through the windy and rainy night. It was already miraculous that they didn’t fall off the centipede.
On the other hand, Mentor Wei Xu currently had his back to them, and it looked like he was arguing with someone.
The other party ferociously drew his sword and posed to attack. Wei Xu couldn’t help geting enraged, but Mentor Hu grabbed his sleeve to calm him down.
