Two days had passed in the blink of an eye, and the winter rain had been getting heavier. By the next morning, a thick fog had even set in.
"Haha, heaven truly aids us, with this heavy fog on the sea covering our approach, we will be able to get near East Pole Island without anyone knowing!"
In the council hall, Mu Tianye, the Old Eastern King, laughed heartily, exuding an air of high spirits.
At this mont, in the hall, the eight deputy commanders and several lords from the Eastern Border had gathered, and to the left were Ye Feng and his four companions.
To the right, there were also five people, five slender figures in black robes with unusually long arms, nearly reaching their knees, which were very conspicuous. Of course, what stood out the most were their palms, wider than those of ordinary people, with each finger noticeably thicker.
Ye Feng’s gaze sharpened slightly as he took this in; he had realized that these five experts from the Sky Eagle Sect were likely practicing sothing like the Eagle Claw Technique.
Although the Eagle Claw Technique was an Outer Sect Kung Fu, focusing much of the power in the hands, what Ye Feng hadn’t expected was that the Qi Force of these five experts from the Sky Eagle Sect was exceptionally robust, including three Huajin Grandmasters, one Half-Step Martial King, and the person in the center was remarkably a Martial King.
According to Su Kesu, the Lord of the Coastal Ridge, this represented only half of the Sky Eagle Sect’s forces, with the other half already waiting on the ship. This showed the strength of the sect, which was now comparable to the whole Eastern Border.
Ye Feng couldn’t help feeling puzzled. It seed that in the world of commoners, there were indeed hidden dragons and crouching tigers. The saying that there’s always soone better out there really did hold true.
"Gentlen, in order to approach East Pole Island undetected by the enemy, we shall use a cruise ship for our ocean voyage. You all may disguise yourselves as wealthy rchants and the like, with the general guise of heading out to sea for leisure!" the steward of the Eastern Border announced.
The gathered had already been aware of this plan, and the steward’s announcent was simply a formality. Soon, all arrangents were complete and it was ti to set out.
By this ti, Hong Qingyan was already waiting outside the door. Seeing Ye Feng erge, she approached and asked, "Big Brother Ye, you plan to take to sea this ti, even though you said we were going to carry out a dangerous mission. Isn’t it inappropriate to bring along?"
Ye Feng laughed and said, "You’re mistaken; we’re not going to carry out a dangerous mission, but rather to enjoy a cruise. Since it’s for leisure on the high seas, it’s natural to take you with us."
"Really?" Hong Qingyan’s bright eyes lit up at this; the fact that Ye Feng was willing to bring her along naturally made her exceedingly happy.
"Of course, it’s true. Go back and get ready, since we are taking a cruise, we need to dress properly!" Ye Feng laughed.
The truth was that Ye Feng wanted to bring Hong Qingyan, partly because they needed to masquerade as wealthy rchants and partly because the origins and strength of the Sky Eagle Sect were unknown. If Hong Qingyan was left alone in the Eastern Border, it would be dangerous if the sect had ill intentions.
After all, having experienced a past incident, Ye Feng was determined not to let it happen again.
An hour later, Hong Qingyan erged, dressed in a snow-white floor-length gown, walking gracefully towards them. Standing tall at 1.72 ters, her figure was slender and exquisite. While her oval face might not be stunning at first glance, it possessed a distinctive Eastern beauty.
Especially when she put on high heels, Hong Qingyan walked much more slowly, and were one not paying attention, it would be hard to notice her limp.
Following Ye Feng, who also erged step by step from inside, wearing gold and silver, his wrist adorned with a garish gold watch, and seven out of ten fingers bearing agate, jade, and gold rings.
Even around his neck hung a gold chain, and the clothes on his body shimred gold as well. Just one look at his outfit and people would imdiately think of three words: nouveau riche!
"Haha... who would’ve thought, I, the Lord, would one day inherit such a style!" Sima Zhantian burst out laughing on the spot.
"What’s so funny? You bumpkins really haven’t seen the world. You know why I’m dressed up like this? Because I’m so poor, all I have left is money!" Ye Feng said jokingly as he wrapped one arm around Hong Qingyan’s slender, soft waist and gestured with his fingers held up like an orchid.
Xiao Chuanqi and the others laughed even harder, and Sima Zhantian said, "Since we’re all dressed up as rich rchants and tycoons, I’ve got to find myself a girl too. I’ve heard that the Old Eastern King’s backyard is full of sprightly girls. I’m going right now to demand one from him!"
" too. With such a good opportunity, I can’t pass it up!" Li Jingang chuckled and followed Sima Zhantian towards the backyard.
Half an hour later, not only Sima Zhantian and Li Jingang, but even Xiao Chuanqi and the always solemn Xia Lengchan each had a tall woman by their side, all dolled up, while the n exuded a blatantly ostentatious air.
As for the Old Eastern King, there was no need for him to pretend—seeing his rotund figure, sotis Ye Feng couldn’t help but suspect that he was indeed a genuine tycoon turned nouveau riche.
"Are we all ready? Let’s set off!" The Old Eastern King led the way. He wasn’t very tall, with a protruding belly, and with a young woman in each arm, he swayed pompously as he walked, looking every inch the wealthy landlord.
The east side of the Base Camp led to the coast, where a huge cruise ship was already docked. Everyone boarded one by one, and with a deep horn sound, the cruise set out to sea.
It wasn’t until this mont that Ye Feng finally saw the other half of the Sky Eagle Sect’s power, also five elegantly dressed figures, each just as formidable. Especially the one in the middle—he was also a Middle Rank Martial King.
This ant that the Sky Eagle Sect had two Martial Kings, which was indeed a considerable force!
Shortly after, the other five masters of the Sky Eagle Sect ca over. As all ten people gathered together, they sat in the grand hall, exuding a formidable presence, especially the two Martial Kings, who were seated in the main seats, emanating an aura of authority.
Even when the Old Eastern King went up to make small talk, the Middle Rank Martial King, who was the leader of the Sky Eagle Sect, responded with barely a glance, completely disregarding Mu Tianye, the King of the Eastern Border.
Old Eastern King Mu Tianye, feeling snubbed, could only turn away resentfully and walk towards Ye Feng, muttering under his breath, "What arrogance, to behave like this before , I... If it were ten years ago, I would have dealt with him by now!"
Ye Feng couldn’t help but laugh, "I’m afraid that even ten years ago, Old Eastern King Mu Tianye, you might not have been able to deal with him." Read exclusive content at .Côm
At this, Ye Feng shook his head slightly and sighed softly, "A Middle Rank Martial King is indeed a rarity, I wonder where this guy has sprung from. By the way, these two Martial Kings are the leader and deputy leader of the Sky Eagle Sect, what are their nas?"
Still indignant, Old Eastern King Mu Tianye replied, "The leader is nad Sky Splitting Eagle, and his deputy is Sky Splitting Tyrant. It is said that the two are brothers."
"Sky Splitting Eagle?" Ye Feng mused and then shook his head in secrecy; he had not heard of this na before, nor had he seen it in the secret records of the previous era. Of course, this did not rule out the possibility that the two were using aliases.
Suddenly, Sky Splitting Eagle, the leader of the Sky Eagle Sect, whispered sothing in the ear of his deputy, Sky Splitting Tyrant, and right after, Sky Splitting Tyrant stood up abruptly and walked directly over to Ye Feng.
