Chapter 11
Volume 1: Chapter 20: Refugee (2)
Not only did they drive Miao Yi back into the cabin, they even locked the cabin door. Miao Yi was speechless. He could only open the small window and breathe in some fresh air.
Because Miao Yi was bored, he spread out the blanket given by the order of the unacquainted Madame and sat in a lotus stance as he cultivated.
Time pa.s.sed imperceptibly, and already it was late at night. With his keen senses, Miao Yi noticed another s.h.i.+p approaching. At first, he did not take it seriously, but soon the sounds of clanging, fighting and screams of fear rang out.
The sounds caused Miao Yi to recall the fights that took place in the Boundless Secular World.
"Pirates! Pirates! Protect Madame!"
It was the voice of that steward.
Miao Yi opened his eyes and rapidly stood up, grabbing the wooden spear. He walked to the door and with just a push, the door immediately flew out.
In a flash, he dashed up to the deck and saw a s.h.i.+p sailing right beside theirs. In the opposite s.h.i.+p, many pirates with sabers in their hands were jumping and climbing onto this s.h.i.+p, waving their long sabers and shouting wildly to induce fear.
There were many people fighting with the pirates on the s.h.i.+p Miao Yi was in, but it was obvious that the one’s defending were no match for those pirates that made their profits by licking blood off their sabers. Quite a number of people had already been slashed by sabers and were left collapsed on the ground. Especially when the pirates’ archers fired their arrows, killing many of the men defending the s.h.i.+p Miao Yi was on. The defending men could only retreat as many of their own forces were killed.
A few falcula ropes were hurled over. The pirates leaped out from the sails of their s.h.i.+p wielding their sabers and slid directly along the ropes towards the master’s cabin. It was obvious that they were trying to capture the leader first in order to capture all the followers.
If they could seize the master, the others would stop fighting back to save their master’s life. This way, the losses during the attack would decrease. These pirates seemed very experienced. It was obvious that this wasn’t the first time they had done something like this.
The fight outside was extremely terrible. Screams of maids could be heard from the master’s room, accompanied by cries of children. The steward was also shouting in the master’s room, ordering the men to stop the pirates from coming in.
Sou! The sound of a sudden, sharp burst of wind sounded as Miao Yi moved the long spear. With a "Duo" sound, a white feather arrow trembled as it hit the spear shaft. It almost shot Miao Yi’s head.
With a shake of his spear, the white feather arrow rebounded from the spear shaft. He waved the spear, which measured up to one zhang long, at the archer who was holding onto the mast.
Bang! The shapeless force blasted the archer who was about to fire again. The archer spat blood and fell, cras.h.i.+ng onto the deck. He stopped moving after struggling for a while.
Miao Yi was dumbstruck by what had happened. He didn't expect that the opponent would be this weak. Immediately, Miao Yi realized that he was no longer an ordinary being, as ordinary beings wouldn't be able to withstand his own transcendence energy.
Clang! The pirates had already broke in the door of the master’s cabin room.
Without any time to ponder, Miao Yi darted up in a flash. As he dashed into the room, the transcendence energy bursted out from his body and immediately blasted the group of pirates, causing them to spit blood as they flew out.
Simultaneously, Miao Yi dashed into the room and thrust his spear through the heart of the pirate who had his saber up in the air and was about to slash the steward.
As the pirate collapsed, the saber in his hand fell to the ground with a clang, landing near the steward.
The terrified steward, the lady
