Chapter 226 Youths Carried by Sea

Sikong Qianluo held back her spear and Mu Chunfeng also kept his sword.

This duel was way too dazzling. Even they wanted to know the final outcome.

Who was going to win? Tang Lian with his profound internal strength, who was steady and unswerving, or Lei Wujie who was showing off his abilities with his heroic spirit in the clouds?

A soft cough sounded from behind them. Xiao Se, who had pulled out the silver needle in his forehead, had draped on the fur coat and walked out of the cabin. He leaned against the side and watched the duel.

That was the collision between the Milky Way and the sword of flowers.

The flowers withered instantly, but the Milky Way became brighter!

Lei Wujie did not give in. His eyes instantly flashed red, and around him, steam began to form. He was going to ignite this Milky Way!

Tang Lian scoffed, and waved his left hand. The light of the Milky Way had yet to dissipate and another Milky Way appeared!

"Haah!" Lei Wujie turned his body and prepared to attack with another sword move.

But, Tang Lian slammed the Milky Way down on top of Lei Wujie’s head, and then tipped his toes onto that Milky Way to leap back onto the ship. He didn’t have the martial arts that Lei Wujie used to walk freely on the sea, so once his palm strike was successful, he retreated back onto the ship.

Lei Wujie lost with his sword move, and he was smashed into the sea. Suddenly, he began to flounder frantically, one hand holding the Heart sword and the other flapping with the waves. The scene was a far cry from the extraordinary grandeur he displayed earlier. Now, he was half-choking on seawater, and half shouting, "I… I can't swim, ah! Help! I can't swim!"

Tang Lian used too much of his qi with that palm strike. Presently, he closed his eyes and sat down cross-legged to start his meditation quietly.

Xiao Se didn't seem to care whether his good brother lived or died. Once he saw the outcome, he yawned with disinterest and walked back into the cabin.

Sikong Qianluo looked innocently at Mu Chunfeng. "I… can’t swim either."

"Help!" Lei Wujie was losing his voice. "I can’t swim, ah… help."

Mu Chunfeng lifted his visor and said helplessly, "Pull him up."

"Yes, sir." Someone immediately followed his order. He waved a flag in his hand, and a large fishing net was ejected from under the boat. The net closed around Lei Wujie who was not far away, and several boatmen pulled him together. Lei Wujie was completely drenched and looked utterly wretched as he crawled out of the fishing net. He lay flat on the deck, panting loudly while looking up at the sky.

"Da-shixiong is indeed da-shixiong. Wujie is full of admiration!" Lei Wujie said with difficulty.

Tang Lian was halfway through his meditation. He opened his eyes and said slowly, "If I don't teach you a lesson, you won’t learn to respect this shixiong."

Mu Chunfeng suddenly laughed out loud. He was very happy. Although he had yet to arrive at the Three Snake Islands, had not caught that giant Iron Crystal, had not succeeded in making the medicine for his older brother, he already felt that he had gained something even more precious on his trip. Even if he turned back now and went home, he would have felt that the trip was worth everything. Everything was worth it! He couldn’t stop laughing and he didn't want to stop laughing.

Sikong Qianluo looked at him like he was an idiot. "What on earth are you laughing about?"

Mu Chunfeng suppressed his laughter and said, "In the Qingzhou Mu family, I’m always treated like a misfit. Do you know why?"

"Because you’re not interested in business, and studied medicine instead?" Sikong Qian wondered.

"That is one of the reasons. You know I’m the third son of the Mu family, but you don't know the specifics of my generation in the Mu family. I have two younger sisters, a second older brother who died when he was very young. Then, there’s my oldest brother who has an affliction so he may not have heirs. So I am the next head of the Mu family, but right now, I don’t want to inherit this wealth that’s as vast as the sky. I only want to treat my brother’s affliction. Once my brother is cured, then according to the traditions of the Mu family, he will naturally be the head of the family. So, in the eyes of the Qingzhou people, I’m a fool." Mu Chunfeng chuckled. "But Miss Qianluo, do you think I am a fool?"

Sikong Qianluo said angrily, "The family has a wealth of money, but are not amenable to reason. How is that smart? You Qingzhou people are the real fools."

"That’s right. Back then, four of the Seven Managers came to me in private and dissuaded me from doing this. They all said they would support me, and they will definitely do their best to assist me in the future, and wanted me to stop doing such a stupid thing." Mu Chunfeng raised his head. "But I said to them, look at a mouse which still has its skin, how could man have no proprietary? If man has no propriety, then why does he not die?"

"They said that I studied too much until I’ve gone foolish and my mind was full of benevolence and morality. But they were the foolish ones. A man can live for a hundred years but you can’t bring a single piece of wealth with you, but you could leave behind ties of friendship and sentiment. Yet, they couldn’t judge for themselves which was more important," Mu Chunfeng continued to say. "So I left Qingzhou, left those people, and now that I’ve met you all, I’m really very happy."

"What’s that to do with us?" Sikong Qianluo was still puzzled.

"I think that you’re all the same as me," Mu Chunfeng said. "You can tell a person’s heart from their martial arts. I have seen yours, and they’re excellent! I like you all very much!"

"How are we the same?" Sikong Qianluo was a little vexed. If Xiao Se was the one standing here in a conversation with Mu Chunfeng, he would definitely not be like her, only asking why and how.

"We’re youths," Mu Chunfeng said these two words slowly.

"We are all youths. We’re not sad when we lose, and we’re not humble when we win. Sword in our hand, righteousness in our heart. When we look at the sea in the distance, our hearts fill with boldness. When we see flowers in full bloom, we do not hide the joy in our hearts. The road ahead may be dangerous, but we don’t know how to feel fear. With our companions at our sides, we only want to get drunk on wine and sing loudly. We laugh when we feel like laughing, curse when we feel like cursing. There are thousands of books about how to live in the world but you should ask to move and act with your heart!" Mu Chunfeng said all this in one breath.

Sikong Qianluo could only stare blankly at his words. All that happened was two guys fought against each other on the sea, and frankly, they only exchanged a move each. But, this Mu Chunfeng was moved so deeply. She thought to herself, rich people are really difficult to understand and rich people who have studied a lot are even more crazy in their heads.

"The most important point is that we have one more thing in common." Mu Chunfeng laughed again. He pressed a finger lightly and walked out of the Overlord’s Armor. His white robes fluttered in the wind, giving off an air of an immortal. "We’re all good-looking people."

"We can call a good-looking person a youth. But, a not so good-looking person can only be called a young man." Mu Chunfeng made a final conclusion.

But this sentence caught Sikong Qianluo's heart. She was so deeply moved as to feel the need to express her emotions. She was simply a girl, a girl in full bloom and vigour. To her, there’s nothing happier than hearing others say she’s beautiful. She nodded vigorously. "You’re right about that!"

Tang Lian and Lei Wujie had finished recovering their breaths at this time. Of course they also heard what Mu Chunfeng said earlier, and the pride in their hearts had also been aroused. In their eyes, Mu Chunfeng was no longer someone to latch onto for his money and influence, but finally, he was a ---- comrade.

They exchanged a meaningful smile.

Mu Chunfeng gathered his sleeves and shouted, "Prepare wine!"
