Imperial Treasure

Chapter 543 - 355 River God

——————

Scary?

Feng Sha had long known that Sui Yi’s Demon Que Sword was a very strange and terrifying weapon, while Second Master Gong and the others had only just learned of it, having caught a glimpse not long ago, so they had some psychological preparation.

But they still subconsciously looked toward the Sword Bag on Sui Yi’s back.

Yet Feng Sha and the others didn’t quite understand why the usually taciturn Sui Yi kept questioning this fat man, and what his intentions were.

They couldn’t understand, but at this moment, Sui Yi and Pork Rong were locking eyes, the former as cold and indifferent as ever, her eyes bright, while the latter nervously chuckled, putting on somewhat of a dumb act...

The boatman paddled, the oars slicing through the water, creating a splashing sound. The water of Green Lake was extremely clear and pure, reflecting the blue sky, with unending clusters of reeds in the river, making it appear exceptionally tranquil and beautiful.

In this setting, the group felt as if they were out for a spring outing, rather than heading toward a terrifying territory in search of someone’s chance at life..

Amidst the sound of water, they heard Sui Yi ask, "You could even smell the Sword Qi of Demon Que, so you must surely be able to smell the scent of weapons a hundred meters away, right..."

The fat man’s expression stiffened, and just as he was about to make a move, Sui Yi’s hand, fast as lightning, grabbed his collar.

That two-hundred-pound physique was abruptly lifted by the arm, and flung away!

With a loud bang! The large body was thrown over ten meters away, about to crash into the water and create a huge splash when, to everyone’s alarm, they saw Sui Yi had already leaped into the air, dashing forward ten meters. She stepped on the back of the fat man, pushing him directly into the water with one foot, reached behind her, and with a clank, drew her sword!

Whoosh~ A round, sweeping slice, cleaving through the water surface...

"Swish~" a narrow crescent of Sword Qi, carrying a sharp slash of water, cut diagonally across!

A clump of reeds was cleanly sliced through at the waist, the stems falling, followed by a scream from behind.

"Not good, we’re being ambushed!"

Second Master Gong and the others were not fools. At this moment, they knew there was an ambush within those reed clusters.

They didn’t have Sui Yi’s skill of gliding on water, but they all had guns!

As their bullets were fired!

From behind several clusters of reeds, individuals also stood up shooting bullets!

Several of them targeted Sui Yi!

At that moment, as Pork Rong still splashed around in the water, Sui Yi had already used the momentum to jump to the nearest reed cluster behind a boat. Those on the boat were either cut down by her sword or knocked off the boat by her. She stood on the rocking boat, her right hand wielding the Demon Que Sword, brilliantly parrying the incoming bullets with clanks.

This scene was very frightening, frightening Third Lady Yin and the others so much they almost couldn’t hold onto their guns.

Previously, they thought this girl was a drag, which was simply blind!

Ultimately, it was Second Master Gong and his men who reacted swiftly, while those who had been concealed in the reeds, planning to ambush, were now hindered by the reeds, unable to see the location of Sui Yi and others. Sui Yi, already aware of people hidden behind the reeds, took the opportunity to fire wildly, killing most of their group.

Suddenly, a whistle sounded, and those men began to abandon their ships and jump into the water..

"They’re running!"

"Haha, they’re running!"

Second Master Gong didn’t plan to pursue them, considering the enemy’s numbers weren’t small, and their origins unknown; chasing them seemed unwise.

Besides, they were pressed for time.

"If anyone is injured, tend to your wounds... Boatman, were you scared?" Second Master Gong turned to the boatman, smiling warmly.

The boatman, previously terrified, was still shaken, trembling, he said, "You all, what kind of people are you, shooting and killing without even blinking an eye.. I.."

"Isn’t it you who brought us here..." Second Master Gong’s gun was already pressed against his head.

And Second Master Gong One’s gun was also pressed against the temple of the boatman on Sui Yi’s boat.

Although previously terrified, that boatman now seemed somewhat calmer, saying, "I knew this wasn’t going to be an easy job... Among the groups I’ve dealt with these days, yours was particularly noticeable~~ But greed sways the heart.."

This person was unexpectedly calm?

Mount Mover slightly narrowed his eyes, "In this day and age, cases of black tour guides are common, so a few shady characters in these hills aren’t unusual, but I sense you’re not panicked at all, as if you’re not worried we might kill you~~"

Who among those present was inexperienced? Yhan Qingwu might have the cleanest hands, but the others had blood-stained hands and extraordinary experiences. At that moment, all eyes were intently on these two boatmen, with the air of ready to devour them alive.

"Hehe, you can’t kill us... Do you know where you are? This is Hanmu Crossing... the River God protects us. If you dare kill us, it will emerge and devour each of you completely!"
