Chapter 547: Chapter 546, Getting close, This is not so good, right! _1
Du Ningsun said, "There are still terrifying sea beasts in the deep sea, and these are only low-level ones. Everyone, remain vigilant to prevent the sea beasts from causing trouble. We are all in the same boat now. Let the past be the past; as long as we can safely reach the icy lands, that’s enough. As for past matters, let bygones be bygones. Let’s live in peace and reach our destination."
Li Xiaolu looked back and said, "Okay, let’s all live in peace and make it to the icy lands."
Jiang Chen glanced over and returned to the cabin.
"The sea is indeed dangerous."
"Yeah, if we lose the boat, we’re all dead."
"What was that monster just now? It looked like an octopus."
"It must have been an Octopus Monster. They live deep in the sea. Luckily, the heroine was here; otherwise, we would have been finished."
"It looks like they’ve given up resisting and are prepared to let us journey to the icy lands."
Li Xiaolu said softly, "Be careful. Don’t let your guard down, and don’t forget, they are desperados."
Hearing Li Xiaolu say this, several people nodded. It’s best to stay cautious.
「Three more days passed by like this...」
[Jiang Chen]

True Qi increased continuously, filling Jiang Chen’s Dantian. His Dantian also underwent obvious changes: the original True Qi condensed into a small sphere, a sensation akin to entering the Golden Core Realm. Initially, True Qi was in a gaseous state. As it increased, it turned into a liquid, then fused into a solid, undergoing changes step by step.
「...」
Du Ningsun asked, "How is it?"
"They’ve let their guard down."
"Then we’ll make our move tonight. I can’t have lost this arm for nothing," Du Ningsun said, his expression dark as he looked at his arm.
At this moment, Jiang Chen was lying in the cabin. Wisps of white vapor rose from below.
There’s a problem.
Jiang Chen felt it. The air around him shifted, and he knew Du Ningsun had made his move, planning to capture them all in one fell swoop. Desperados don’t submit so easily. Jiang Chen’s Perception was exceptionally strong, and he immediately left the cabin.
At this moment, most of the Wanderers had relaxed their vigilance and returned to their cabins to sleep. Only a few kept watch, but regrettably, they were unaware of any problems.
「In the next second...」
Du Ningsun and the sailors made their move.
Two Wanderers turned pale. "Du Ningsun, what are you trying to do?"
"Hmph! What am I doing? Do you really think I, Du Ningsun, am so easy to bully? Put down your swords, or you’ll die!"
A Wanderer shouted loudly, "Alarm! Du Ningsun is making his move!"
The sailors behind Du Ningsun laughed wantonly.
"HAHA... they were poisoned a long time ago!"
"This poison will leave you completely weak."
"Drop your longswords, and we’ll spare you!"
The faces of the two guarding Wanderers changed drastically. They too sensed that something was off. They called out a couple of times, but there was no response.
KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!
A Wanderer knocked on a cabin door.
KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!
No response.
KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!
Still no response.
Du Ningsun’s eyes flashed with Killing Intent as he snarled, "I’ll give you one more chance! Drop your longswords, or I’ll kill..."
CLANG! CLANG!
The longswords dropped to the ground.
"Bring everyone to the deck! I want them to know who the real boss is," Du Ningsun commanded.
All the Wanderers were brought to the deck. At this moment, everyone looked ashen. Their True Qi was sealed, making them unable to mobilize it. Without their True Qi, the Wanderers were no different from ordinary people.
Li Xiaolu looked even more desperate. Despite all her calculations, she never expected to fall into this trap. At this point, she couldn’t understand how they had been poisoned.
Du Ningsun looked at Li Xiaolu’s figure and said with pride, "Can’t figure it out, can you? Why you were poisoned when you didn’t eat our food or drink our water?"
Li Xiaolu glared at Du Ningsun and said angrily, "Don’t forget, I’m a member of the Qianren Association! If you dare to lay a hand on me, the Qianren Association won’t let you go!"
Du Ningsun sneered, "The Qianren Association? Do you really think you can escape?"
"If you kill all of us, wouldn’t that raise suspicions? I am a Disciple of Elder Xue of the Qianren Association, and my master is a Seventh-stage Expert!"
"Boss Du, if you have the guts, kill us all!"
"Hmph, if you kill us, you’ll be buried with us too!"
The Wanderers chimed in one after another, but their hearts were in turmoil. What if he really attacks? They’re all desperados!
Du Ningsun just smiled, unconcerned.
Kill them all? That’s not a bad idea, but it would inevitably draw the Qianren Association’s attention. Du Ningsun was a desperado, but not a fool. He had already thought of a plan.
Du Ningsun said with a smile, "My dear, how could I bear to kill you? It won’t be me who does it. Tie her to the mast!"
Two sailors stepped forward and quickly tied Li Xiaolu up. Li Xiaolu was furious. Without her True Qi, she had absolutely no way to resist.
"What exactly do you want to do?"
"What do I want to do? Killing you would be letting you off too easy. Now, let them have their fun first." Du Ningsun looked at the crowd and said with a laugh, "I’ll give you a chance. Anyone who wants to live can get intimate with her for a while. Those who don’t, I can send them on their way early."
Hearing his words, everyone’s faces changed dramatically.
What? She’s a Disciple of the Qianren Association! Who would dare approach her...?
Du Ningsun said coldly, "Why the hesitation? I’m giving you a chance to live, and you don’t want it? An opportunity to get intimate with her, you don’t want that either? Li Xiaolu is quite beautiful, isn’t she? Those who want to get intimate with her, stand to the left. You’ll get your chance. Those who don’t, stand to the right, and soon you’ll be food for the fish in the sea. You have ten breaths. After ten breaths, those on the left will live; those on the right... hmph!"
The twenty-odd Wanderers heard this and all fell silent.
"Nine."
"Eight."
"Seven."
「...」
Some began to move leftward. After the first person, a second followed, then a third, then a fourth...
Li Xiaolu’s face turned ashen. She understood Du Ningsun’s intentions. He wanted to humiliate her.
"Sorry, but we have no other choice."
"We just want to live."
"Yeah, we all just want to stay alive."
"Sorry."
Du Ningsun laughed heartily. "These are the people you wanted to protect? Don’t you feel like dying now?"
A sailor looked at Jiang Chen and asked, "Kid, why aren’t you moving to the right?"
Jiang Chen said, "My legs are weak."
The sailor scoffed, "Weak legs? Your courage is pathetic!"
Du Ningsun glanced at Jiang Chen and said with a laugh, "You’re Jiang Chen, right? You’ve often passed me information. Now, I’m giving you an opportunity. You can be the first one to try. Go ahead now. Get intimate with her."
Jiang Chen looked at Li Xiaolu and said awkwardly, "This doesn’t seem very appropriate!"
"What? You don’t want to?" Du Ningsun sneered.
"I may like beautiful women, but she’s not willing," Jiang Chen replied.
"You’re quite the chivalrous one, aren’t you? Well, you don’t have a choice. Either you get intimate with her, or I’ll throw you to the sea monsters."
"Actually, I have a third choice."
Du Ningsun’s eyebrows furrowed. "What?"
"And that is to take all of you down."
Silence. The scene fell completely silent.
Everyone looked at Jiang Chen with astonishment. None of them had expected that the first to stand up against Du Ningsun would be him.
Li Xiaolu was shocked. In such a situation, he still stood up.
Du Ningsun’s brow furrowed in concern. At that moment, he felt that Jiang Chen was completely different. Wasn’t he a coward? How could he possess such an imposing aura?
