Chapter 3214: These People Might Be Sacrifices
Lin Moyu recounted the history of the Xuan family of Xuanguang City as if reciting from memory.
Others might not know these things, but the Lufen Chamber of Commerce did.
Lin Moyu had spent a large sum to buy the most comprehensive information from the Lufen Chamber of Commerce, including details on all the forces in the Southern Continent.
So naturally, Lin Moyu knew everything clearly.
As for what they were going to do with the Buddhist clan, that was Lin Moyuâs own analysis.
When Lin Moyu said these things, the three menâs faces changed drastically.
Lin Moyu hadnât lowered his voice when speaking. There were quite a few people on the ship, and many had heard.
Xuan Daoguang shouted angrily, "What nonsense are you spouting!"
Lin Moyu chuckled, "Letâs just say Iâm talking nonsense. As for what youâre going to do in the Western Continent, you know that yourselves."
The faces of Xuan Daoguang and the other two became extremely ugly, gloomy with thick killing intent.
Lu Xichuan seemed to understand Lin Moyuâs true intention. Lin Moyu spoke this way to deliberately provoke them.
If they hadnât thought about killing Lin Moyu before, now they had completely developed the intention to kill.
Lin Moyu did this to give them a reason to make a move, and then counterattack.
"Mr. Lin is not someone to be trifled with," Lu Xichuan realized that Lin Moyu wasnât an easy person to deal with.
Behind his seemingly calm face was hidden a terrifying killing intent.
When the first mockery came from them, Lin Moyuâs killing intent was already boiling.
Not only did he want to kill them, but in a few words, he had also put their family in danger.
There were many people here, and one could imagine that this matter would surely spread.
When it reaches the Wu familyâs ears, how would they view Xuanguang Cityâs disloyalty?
One could imagine that in a year or so, life in Xuanguang City wouldnât be easy.
He could imagine that Xuan Daoguang and the others must be regretting now why they mocked Lin Moyu.
Whatever Lin Moyu said had nothing to do with them, but now they had truly brought trouble upon themselves.
Lin Moyu no longer paid attention to Xuan Daoguang and the others, his gaze turning to the distance.
A huge whirlpool appeared ahead, like a giant mouth slowly rotating in the Realm Sea.
The massive whirlpool, over hundreds of li in diameter, swallowed endless seawater every second.
From afar, it looked as if there was a terrifying giant beast under the sea, seemingly about to drain the Realm Sea dry.
An inexplicable sense of pressure came head-on.
The appearance of the great whirlpool attracted everyoneâs attention.
When the warship was a hundred li away from the great whirlpool, everyone heard the roaring sound coming from the whirlpool.
The roar of the water flow was like thunderclaps exploding in their minds.
Some Dao Venerables with insufficient cultivation let out screams, not daring to look anymore.
The great whirlpool seemed to have infinite magical power; not everyone could look at it.
Lin Moyu looked at the great whirlpool expressionlessly. There was some curiosity in his eyes about what was beneath the great whirlpool.
Soon, the warship flew by the edge of the great whirlpool, coming as close as fifty li at the nearest point.
Here, one could feel the terrifying suction of the great whirlpool.
The Hurricane Warship glowed faintly, its formations operating to offset most of the suction.
Some remaining suction force penetrated through the formations and fell on the warship, causing it to shake unsteadily.
Some people, affected by the suction, instantly lost their balance and instinctively wanted to fly.
At this moment, Lu Xichuan shouted loudly, "Donât fly!"
The clever ones immediately suppressed the urge to fly.
But some still flew up. In an instant, the penetrating suction seemed to have found its target, all suction force concentrating on those who had flown up.
With a scream, that person was immediately pulled over by the overwhelming suction.
That person was a first-level Dao Venerable cultivator, completely unable to resist the suction.
Fortunately, there was a fifth-level Dao Venerable powerhouse beside him. With a wave of his hand, he summoned a long whip that flew out and wrapped around the person, forcefully pulling him back.
Lu Xichuan reminded again, "No flying. Feet must not leave the deck. If you canât manage this, please return to your rooms."
Lin Moyu said, "This suction force is quite interesting. It seems to have intelligence, able to seek targets on its own."
Lu Xichuan nodded, "Yes, this is still a relatively small whirlpool. Those larger whirlpools have even stronger suction. Once sucked in, itâs basically impossible to rescue."
Lin Moyu asked, "If thatâs the case, why not take a detour? Wouldnât spending a bit more time be better?"
Lu Xichuan shook his head, "I donât know why either. This route was set by the Three Ancestors and the King of the Realm Sea. We can only follow it."
Since it was arranged by the Three Ancestors and the King of the Realm Sea, there must be deep meaning to it.
Lin Moyu thought for a moment and asked, "Does someone fall into the whirlpool every time?"
Lu Xichuan nodded, "Not every time, but almost. We warn repeatedly, but when facing several large whirlpools, it seems to have little effect."
Lin Moyu asked, "What about the cultivation levels of those who fall in?"
Lu Xichuan thought for a moment, "The highest I know of was a sixth-level Dao Venerable. Most are first to third-level Dao Venerable cultivators. Not many above fourth level."
"Mr. Lin, have you thought of something?"
Lin Moyu shook his head slightly, "Not yet. Senior Xichuan, do you know the location of Dragon Coil Island?"
Humans and beast races resolve conflicts on Dragon Coil Island. For countless years, battles on Dragon Coil Island have never stopped.
There will inevitably be conflicts between the two races over various resources.
But because of Dragon Coil Islandâs existence, large-scale wars havenât broken out between the two races.
Whenever thereâs a conflict, they go to Dragon Coil Island to resolve it.
So on Dragon Coil Island, there are battles every year.
Year after year of fighting hasnât reduced conflicts; instead, blood feuds have increased greatly.
Now the situation on Dragon Coil Island has changed from resolving conflicts to another pattern.
Lin Moyu knew that Dragon Coil Island was between the Northern and Southern Continents, but didnât know its exact location.
Lu Xichuan said, "Dragon Coil Island isnât far from here."
Lu Xichuan pointed in a direction, "Itâs over there, about a hundred thousand li away."
A hundred thousand li indeed wasnât far.
And according to the direction Lu Xichuan pointed, it should also be close to the great whirlpool.
Lin Moyuâs guess gradually became clearer.
"These people might be sacrifices!"
He muttered to himself but didnât say it out loud.
Lu Xichuan asked, "Does Mr. Lin plan to go to Dragon Coil Island?"
Lin Moyu smiled, "Iâm a bit curious."
Lu Xichuan said, "I havenât been to Dragon Coil Island either, and there isnât much information about them. Itâs said that Dragon Coil Island is very large but also very chaotic."
"If Mr. Lin wants to go, itâs best to understand clearly beforehand."
Lin Moyu said, "Thank you for the reminder. Iâll be careful."
The warship passed several whirlpools of varying sizes, each time brushing past within fifty to a hundred li of the whirlpool.
Every time, everyone could feel the suction force.
But with the experience from the first time, no one left the shipâs deck afterward.
After several times, even the first-level Dao Venerable cultivators gained confidence.
As long as they didnât leave the deck, they would be fine.
Lu Xichuan shook his head, "Weâre about to encounter the truly great whirlpool. Iâm afraid a few of these fellows will die."
Lin Moyu said, "Wonât you force them to go back?"
Lu Xichuan said, "The Three Ancestors said to let fate decide. We only warn; we donât manage anything else."
Lin Moyu had roughly guessed the Three Ancestorsâ intention. Perhaps all this was related to the seal at the bottom of the Realm Sea.
Finally, a terrifying whirlpool appeared in view.
The huge whirlpool, over ten thousand li across, roared continuously. The Hurricane Warship began to shake violently.
Suddenly, a scream pierced through heaven and earth!
