Qiushui Fishing Town.

This was the fourth day that Lei Wujie and the others came to this city, and also the third day they’d set off. It was also the day they had agreed with Mu Chunfeng of the Mu family to set sail. Early in the morning, Lei Wujie and the others packed up their bags. For the past few days, they had already moved out of the inn and moved into Zhenzhu’s home at her invitation. In fact, Lei Wujie felt sorry for the inconvenience, but Xiao Se said that the Five Grand Eunuchs had always acted without regard for the aftermath so staying there was also to protect Miss Zhenzhu.

"Miss Zhenzhu, please take care of these two fine yebei horses," Lei Wujie said with a smile as he stroked the horse's head. These two horses had been following Xiao Se and Lei Wujie since Fallen Snow Villa and in the past year, they had ridden thousands of miles together so they also developed an attachment for Lei Wujie.

"Don't worry, leave them to me." Zhenzhu smiled.

Lei Wujie patted the horse's neck and suddenly said, "If we don’t make it back, don't sell them. After a while, there will probably be a group of people coming here. If they claim to be from Snow Moon City, then you can entrust these two horses to them."

"Don’t make it back?" Zhenzhu was taken aback.

"What do you mean don’t make it back? You jinxed it." Tang Lian patted Lei Wujie's head with his hand. "Don't talk nonsense."

Lei Wujie laughed and said, "That's true. Right now, we don’t even know if we can go, let’s not talk about whether or not we can make it back."

Xiao Se walked to Lei Wujie's side and yawned lazily. "Are you asking for a beating?"

Lei Wujie shrugged. "Don't worry, I know you want to go to Penglai Island to cure your injury. Whether it’s the Grand Eunuch of Sword or a wind-riding immortal, just leave them to me."

After hearing their conversation, Zhenzhu hesitated for a long time but she still went ahead and asked, "Although it’s a little bold of me to say so, and I haven’t seen much of the world, I can tell that you’re not disciples from an ordinary big family that have come out to play. Who are you, really?"

"My name is Lei Wujie." Lei Wujie smiled. "That’s my real name. I’m not very famous in the martial world. My shixiong is Tang Lian, regarded as an outstanding talent of the younger generation in the martial world. This is my shidi, hey, what are you staring at me for, you entered the sect a whole incense stick later than me. This shidi is called Xiao Se. His previous name is a little more intimidating, but that’s all in the past. Now the three of us have left our sect to explore the martial world. In the martial world, everyone calls us…"

Zhenzhu's eyes widened, gazing at Lei Wujie with admiration, waiting for him to say his next words expectantly.

Tang Lian and Xiao Se also looked at him, thinking in their head, this guy is about to come up with some ridiculous nonsense.

"Three Youths of Snow Moon." Lei Wujie slowly spit out these four words.

Tang Lian felt his cheeks go red and an inexplicable sense of shame rose in his heart. Xiao Se simply rolled his eyes and sighed in his heart. When he first met Lei Wujie, he was a fool. He didn't expect that a year later, he became a bigger fool.

However, Zhenzhu's eyes flashed. "Snow Moon City. Now, I remember. It is the legendary number one city of the martial world."

"Yes, we’re from there." Lei Wujie lifted his luggage. "Miss Zhenzhu, hope we meet again." Then he strode forward, swaggering with confidence.

Tang Lian and Xiao Se respectfully bid farewell to Zhenzhu with clasped fists, and thanked her for her hospitality over the past few days. But Zhenzhu's eyes followed that Lei Wujie, who strode away without the least bit of propriety.

"Aye, I don't quite understand the thinking of youths." Tang Lian sighed.

After the three people bid farewell to Zhenzhu, they headed for the fishing port and walked up to the shoreline. They saw the cedar longboat which had raised its long sails, the phoenix on it spread its wings and fluttered in the wind, looking as if it was about to take off. Mu Chunfeng stood on the bow, his white robes fluttering in the wind. He stood against the wind, looking into the distance, and behind him stood the armored spear warrior, also looking into the distance silently.

"This Mu Chunfeng is quite poetic. Didn't he say that he wasn’t in good health? What’s he doing outside in the wind?" Lei Wujie muttered.

As if he’d heard Lei Wujie's words, Mu Chunfeng turned around and saw the three people off the side of the boat. He bowed his head in acknowledgement.

"So he came out specially to meet us." Lei Wujie suddenly realized.

"Let's go." Suddenly, Xiao Se tipped his toes and leaped up. He exerted his peerless lightness skill and with a few jumps, stepped onto the ladder. It only took him a few moments to reach Mu Chunfeng's side.

Mu Chunfeng's expression changed drastically. "Cloud Step Wind Riding Skill!"

Xiao Se nodded but didn’t say anything. Then, Tang Lian and Lei Wujie also followed after him and arrived. Mu Chunfeng nodded and greeted, "Xiao Se, Lei Wujie, Tang Mohe."

The last name caused all three of them to start. Tang Lian had almost forgotten the name he’d made up casually. It took him a long time to react and hurriedly nodded. "Hello, Mu-xiongdi!"

"The guests are all here. We set sail," Mu Chunfeng announced loudly.

The spear warrior raised his spear and waved it vigorously. Seeing the signal, the boatman at the bow immediately blew the horn in his hand. When the rest of the crew heard the sound of the horn, they each began their own preparations.

"Have you found all the skilled snake catchers you needed?" Tang Lian asked.

Mu Chunfeng nodded. "Pretty much. The only thing I was afraid of was if the three of you didn’t come. Then, no matter how many skilled snake catchers I recruit, it would be in vain."

"Don't worry, as long as you abide by our agreement, we will naturally help you." Xiao Se yawned and looked out at the seabirds taking off from the surface of the sea.

At this time, the cedar longboat turned its bow, and Lei Wujie looked out at the endless sea. He felt a surge in his heart. "This is going out to sea! We’re really going out to sea!"

"Lei-xiongdi, this must be your first time out to sea," Mu Chunfeng asked with a laugh.

"I grew up in Jiangnan since I was a child, and have never had the opportunity to see the open sea like this," Lei Wujie replied truthfully.

"Excited?" Mu Chunfeng asked again.

"I kind of feel… like I can’t wait to see what’s coming," Lei Wujie said.

Mu Chunfeng let out a long exhale. "Actually, I am too."

"Huh?" All three of them were stunned.

"I have never seen the open sea," Mu Chunfeng said with emotion. "I’m also very excited."

The person in charge of this trip, equivalent to the captain, turned out to be someone who had never been out to sea. Both Xiao Se and Tang Lian silently began to worry about this trip.

At this moment, they heard the sound of a flute, and everyone hurried to look for the source of that sound. They saw a small boat coming from a distance. The person standing at the bow of the boat was playing a flute, and he had a long sword hanging from his waist. The man wore a purple python robe, clearly with no intention of hiding his identity.

Mu Chunfeng frowned tightly. "Purple python robe. That’s the uniform of an eunuch from the imperial palace. Who’s this person?"

"Sure enough, what must come will come." Tang Lian sighed lightly. "I thought we would be able to escape."

"Since we can’t escape, let’s fight." Lei Wujie clenched his fingers around his sword tightly.
