Chapter 163: Chapter 74 Powerful Dragon Fish, Shi Xiaoyuan Transforms
Luoshui River.
The mont he saw the White Dragon Fish,
Shi Xiaoyuan waved his hand.
Everyone instantly unfastened the fish bladders tied around their waists and then took a deep breath inward.
After taking a deep breath, Shi Xiaoyuan’s chest visibly swelled a few centiters in height.
The others did the sa.
Huang San, upon seeing this, did not do as they did.
Because just now Shi Xiaoyuan had promised that all he needed to do was lead the way to the sunken ship at the bottom of the river.
As for what followed, Huang San’s efforts were no longer needed.
To confront a White Dragon Fish, even one that might have awakened its spiritual sense, Shi Xiaoyuan was full of confidence.
Not to ntion, he had the assistance of several capable followers by his side.
In the span of two or three breaths,
the others had also completed the act of breathing in.
Then, just like Shi Xiaoyuan, they all tossed aside the fish bladders.
Because they were about to make their move, having the air-filled fish bladders tied to their bodies in the water would undoubtedly greatly hinder their movents.
One breath exchange was enough for them, who were outstanding swimrs, to last about half the ti it takes for a cup of tea underwater.
This amount of ti, in their eyes, was sufficient.
Enough to end the upcoming battle and easily return to the surface.
Besides, even if they couldn’t finish the battle, they could still retreat first and dive back after preparing adequately.
After all, the sunken ship was right here; it wasn’t going to suddenly disappear.
At this mont,
Shi Xiaoyuan glanced at his n and nodded in satisfaction.
He signaled to them again, and imdiately, they unfastened a few casting nets from their waists.
Two others directly pulled open a fishing net and stood close together.
Then, these n followed closely behind Shi Xiaoyuan, swimming towards the subrged ship below.
Upon seeing this, Huang San watched the gradually vanishing figures of the n and he slowly let out a breath of relief.
Then, he backed up a few ters until he could barely see a silhouette of the sunken ship and then stopped moving.
Just then, he seed to feel sothing.
He instantly turned his head looking towards the right front.
His gut told him there had been so disturbance in that direction.
But where his gaze fell, there was nothing but void darkness, no signs of movent.
“Strange, could I have been mistaken?” Huang San pondered to himself.
Imdiately he looked again more carefully, shook his head slightly, and continued to muse, “Seems like I’m just too nervous!”
Elsewhere.
“What keen perception, he could sense my presence from this distance.”
Jiang Ning watched the direction where Huang San was with considerable surprise.
Huang San’s earlier actions had naturally caught his eye.
At this mont,
inside the cabin of the sunken ship,
if soone were there, they would see a Dragon Fish approximately five feet seven inches long, covered with white scales, swimming leisurely.
Its eyes looking out of the cabin revealed a human-like cruelty.
Anyone seeing that look would know this Dragon Fish had exceptional spiritual intelligence.
To the White Dragon Fish, the approaching people were its prey.
The prey that it had deliberately lured here.
It was well aware that its evolution was imminent and needed a massive amount of high-quality blood food to supply the energy for its transformative evolution.
In the water, the blood food it could find consisted of only common fish and shrimp.
Such ordinary food was sufficient for it to fill its belly, but to provide the energy required for its evolutionary transformation called for a far too large quantity.
So, it set its sights on the blood-rich Martial Artists.
In the eyes of the White Dragon Fish, one blood-rich Martial Artist was of such high quality that it was equivalent to a thousand pounds of ordinary blood food.
It was for this reason that it chose to deliberately let one person go.
It knew that given human greed, there would inevitably be those who were not afraid of death to co seeking.
And these people, at this mont, in its eyes, were typical of those who recklessly courted death.
…
The mont Shi Xiaoyuan led the charge into the cabin of the ship,
his eyes suddenly burst with bright light.
Because inside the cabin, iron ore was piled up like a mountain.
Clearly, this was a cargo ship that once carried iron ore and one day, while sailing on the Luoshui River, it encountered an accident and sank.
No one had discovered it henceforth, or perhaps soone did but they never made it out alive.
Therefore, the cargo ship remained intact until now.
Looking at the mountainous piles of iron ore, Shi Xiaoyuan couldn’t help but feel elated.
With a casual glance, he made a rough estimation in his mind.
He knew that the worth of this batch of iron ore was around ten thousand Silver Taels.
Ten thousand Silver Taels was a huge fortune even for the vast Green Snake Gang.
Although the Green Snake Gang controlled many territories in Luoshui County, making money from taxation, water transportation, and human trafficking,
there were too many subordinates, and the cost for food, clothing, and other expenses was significant.
Joining the gang was essentially risking one’s life for the sake of indulging in luxury, spicing up life, and striving for a rise above the rest.
Therefore, they dared not be stingy with the welfare of the gang mbers.
Moreover, thirty percent of the lower-tier inco had to be handed over to the Cao family.
So even as the Gang Leader of the Green Gang, he was not as wealthy as outsiders imagined.
He was always in need of Silver Taels.
Money equated to Martial Arts resources.
With sufficient resources, he was confident that he could use them to rapidly climb into the ranks of Martial Arts Seventh Grade.
A fortune worth ten thousand Silver Taels was indeed an unexpected windfall for him.
At that mont,
Boom—
Planks shattered and water churned.
“Here it cos!”
The n’s expressions remained unchanged, as though they had anticipated this scene.
Catching sight of that white flash, Shi Xiaoyuan’s heart leaped with joy.
