Chapter 276 Let’s have hotpot first?
Lu Yuguan stood in front of the mountain gate of Xuanyu Sect, looking at the flying boat summoned by Qi Wei.
Ripples of water flowed on the ship's hull, and the silk hanging from the mast surged like waves in the night wind.
Wen Lanfeng's red dress was particularly dazzling under the moonlight. She was lowering her head to wipe the maple leaf-shaped magic weapon until she caught a glimpse of the cold figure in the shadows.
"Pan Yin?"
Lu Yuguan's pupils suddenly shrank, and fire suddenly rose from his fingertips.
The python demon that had kidnapped him for three days and three nights was now coiled on the deck of the flying boat, its dark green scales reflecting the moonlight, and a familiar sneer floating in its vertical pupils.
Qi Wei's bone bell rang softly: "Fellow Daoist Pan is the guide this Saint Son has invited. There are many demonic beasts in the Canghai Sea. Fellow Daoist Pan's demonic perception can keep us safe."
Wen Lanfeng suddenly sneered: "They are just a bunch of furry beasts, and they are not worthy of being in the same position after all."
"Friend Wen, please be careful with your words." Pan Yin's snake tail wrapped around the mast, and his voice brushed past Wen Lanfeng's ear. "I am now the chief disciple of Demon Mountain Peak. If I were to make a mistake, the power would be unpredictable."
He deliberately revealed the black jade token on his waist, and the green color made Lu Yuguan's eyes hurt.
When the flying boat broke through the clouds, Lu Yuguan deliberately fell behind.
Wen Lanfeng quietly approached him and asked, "Junior brother, do you have a grudge against this python monster?"
Lu Yuguan felt a dull pain between his eyebrows. "It's a long story. He once interfered with the secular world and imprisoned me for three days..."
Wen Lanfeng cursed, "Scum! None of these demon cultivators are good!"
"Senior Sister, calm down. We won't argue with him."
Lu Yuguan said.
The sea breeze carried the sweet and fishy scent of Pan Yin, reminding Lu Yuguan of the feeling of those sticky scales brushing against his ankles.
The speed of the flying boat magic weapon was indeed extraordinary, and it reached the border of the Canghai Sea in just a few days.
"Everyone, the remains of the Mermaid King are right here on the seabed," Qi Wei said. "Tonight, when the moon is full, the sea will recede. We will then take action."
As dusk deepened, the salty sea breeze blew fine sand across the hems of the four people's clothes.
Lu Yuguan felt hungry, so he squatted on the reef and took out food from his backpack.
Seeing this, Qi Wei said, "Junior Brother Lu, I have some excellent fasting pills here. Would you like two?"
"Saint Son, you are too polite. I have not yet reached the Golden Core stage, so I am still interested in these mundane foods."
Lu Yuguan sneered.
Wen Lanfeng's eyes lit up: "Is this Qianhua Lao's hot pot?"
Lu Yuguan praised: "Senior sister, you have good eyesight."
Wen Lanfeng pointed to a bag of sticky things and asked, "What about this?"
"This is a snack made from soybeans," Lu Yuguan said, tearing open the package. "It has a spicy aroma that's sure to make your mouth water!"
In an instant, the spicy aroma of the spicy strips and hot pot base exploded, choking Pan Yin so much that he sneezed three times.
Pan Yin covered his nose and took two steps back, his pupils reflecting the double-boiled pot that Lu Yuguan took out.
"Boy, what kind of food is this? It smells so strong."
Wen Lanfeng threw spirit stones into the pot and lit it on fire: "If Fellow Daoist Pan doesn't like it, why don't you go catch some sea fish?"
Qi Wei was leaning on the wreckage of the flying boat, playing with the bone bell. He chuckled when he heard this: "I heard that python monsters are best at diving into the sea. How about-"
Pan Yin's snake tail slapped the beach, sending up clouds of dust. "Don't treat me like a laborer!"
Lu Yuguan slowly picked up the spicy strips and dipped them in the hot pot. The red oil, wrapped in a strange fragrance, went straight into his nostrils.
Pan Yin's Adam's apple rolled twice, and finally he swung his tail and dove into the waves: "Wait!"
Wen Lanfeng chuckled.
At this moment, Qi Wei's bone bell suddenly trembled, and his moon-white wide sleeves wrapped around Lu Yuguan and he retreated three steps.
“Get out of the way!——”
As he spoke, three poisoned iron nails rubbed against the hot pot and were driven into the sand, and boiling oil poured onto the sea surface, making a sizzling sound.
"Everyone from the Shadow Sect," Qi Wei said, his fingertips condensing into water blades, "How does it feel to be unable to steal something?"
Three black-robed figures slowly emerged from the shadows. A chuckle rang out from under the veil of the leading woman. "You all from the Xuanyu Sect are coming to Canghai, aren't you just here for a picnic?"
Lu Yuguan picked up the spicy strips and shook them at her: "Beautiful lady, would you like to come down and try some?"
"Rude and outrageous!"
The shadow guard on the left swung out the chain, but it was chopped into pieces by Wen Lanfeng's maple leaf dart.
During the stalemate, the sea surface suddenly exploded with a huge curtain of water, and a strong man with bare upper body jumped out from the hundred-meter-high waves, his bronze muscles shining in the moonlight.
"Man Wuzong is here!" The sound almost shook the hot pot. "Who the hell poisoned the sea? I got diarrhea after drinking a mouthful of seawater!"
Pan Yin happened to be carrying a chimaera out of the water. Upon hearing this, he swung his tail and threw the fish at him: "I was blind and drank the wrong water. Who can I blame?"
"Who the hell are you calling blind?"
The strong man from the Manwu Sect swung a meteor hammer as big as an anchor, shocking Lu Yuguan so much that he jumped onto the reef holding the hot pot.
"My fellow Taoists, the ruins are not open yet, why don't you sit down and have some fish?"
"You bastard!——"
A delicate cry echoed from the clouds as a female cultivator from the Shuoyue Sect floated over, stepping on the moon. Her silver gauze skirt shone with starlight. "Even my Phantom Sea Divine Dragon is sickened by your scent!"
Lu Yuguan shrank back behind Qi Wei: "You...are your stomachs so delicate?"
Before he could finish his words, Qi Wei suddenly grabbed his waist and flew into the air.
"Hey... Qi Wei, what are you doing!?"
Just as Lu Yuguan was about to lose his temper, he heard a loud bang and the reef where he was standing was chopped into pieces by a moon blade.
Qi Wei narrowed his eyes and said, "My dear colleagues, since we are all here to explore the remains of the Shark King, why don't we work together?"
The Manwu Sect man brandished his meteor hammer, "Who doesn't know that the Xuanyu Sect is the only dominant sect? If we try to get the skin of a tiger, we, the smaller sects, won't even get a sip of soup!"
"Soup?" Lu Yuguan asked, holding the hot pot. "How about sitting down and having some?"
"You little slick talker!" the shadow guard shouted as he rushed forward.
Upon seeing this, Wen Lanfeng shot out maple leaf darts like a torrential rain, forcing the Shadow Sect guards to retreat repeatedly.
Her eyebrows raised, and she cursed, "With your mediocre skills, you dare to act so presumptuously in front of my Xuanyu Sect!"
The female cultivator from the Shuoyue Sect landed lightly on a piece of floating ice, the moon wheel in her hand gleaming with cold light, and she glanced at everyone with disdain.
"With this rabble?"
"Sir Qi, are you kidding? My Shuoyue Sect cannot afford to lose this person."
Qi Wei chuckled and said, "This Saint Son naturally knows the reputation of the Shuoyue Sect in the East."
Taking advantage of the stalemate, Lu Yuguan quietly put some ingredients into the hot pot.
The red oil is boiling and the aroma is rich.
He muttered quietly, "Why fight? Why not eat something to replenish your energy first?"
Unexpectedly, this whisper was heard by others.
The sturdy man from the Manwu Sect widened his eyes and roared, "You kid still want to eat? Believe it or not, I will smash your pot with a hammer!"
Lu Yuguan hugged the hot pot tightly and hurriedly jumped behind the three people.
The female cultivator of the Shadow Sect said coldly, "There's no point in talking any more. If you want to fight, then fight!"
The scene instantly became chaotic.
In the chaos, the hot pot flew up and down, and the chili oil splashed all over the head of the female cultivator of Shadow Sect like flowers scattered by a fairy.
"My veil!"
Amidst the shrill screams, the roar of the receding tide came from the bottom of the sea.
Swish! ! !
The moment the hot pot fell to the horizon, the coral palace pierced the waves, and the shadow of the mermaid wandered among the pillars holding a broken harp.
Pan Yin suddenly covered his chest, his golden pupils narrowed into thin lines: "There is a smell of blood in the ruins..."
Qi Wei's bone bell rang out a clear sound, pushing Lu Yuguan towards the main gate of the ruins: "The time has come, the game begins--"
