The Immortal Cultivation World of Male Inferiority and Female Supremacy-Chapter 263. The Loyal Zhao Luofei

The Heavenly Sword Sect, being one of the Five Greats of the Cultivation World, has a shining reputation that Di Ao surely must have heard of; it’s impossible for him to underestimate the aid sent by the Heavenly Sword Sect.

Just when Fang Zhou was puzzled, the entire ship suddenly jolted forcefully once again.

This shock far exceeded the previous collision between the two ships, and many people lost their balance and fell.

"Crack—Crack—"

The sound of shattering quickly came from beneath the ship, and the whole large ship began to tilt.

Fang Zhou hurriedly looked towards the river surface, only to see the river surging, waves rolling, as if something gigantic was moving underwater.

That explains it!

Fang Zhou was certain that the creature underwater was Di Ao’s real trick, while the two rogue cultivators were merely foot soldiers.

The giant creature underwater smashed the large ship open, swam away, and then swiftly came back for another hit.

The tilting ship finally couldn’t withstand the second hit, even the keel was broken, causing the entire ship to split in half, rapidly sinking into the water.

The battle on the deck was forcibly stopped, and the survivors screamed as they fell into the water with the ship debris.

Gou Cheng reacted swiftly, making a sword gesture with one hand, and the jade pendant hanging at his waist immediately transformed into a Spirit Sword, lifting him into the air.

Gou Cheng naturally did not forget Qiao Sen, grabbing her to take her up into the air as well.

Qiao Sen let out a sigh of relief; when the ship cracked, she was almost scared stiff, her legs were still weak.

"Thank you, Immortal Master Gou Cheng. Wait, where’s Mr. Ling?"

After catching her breath, Qiao Sen began to thank Gou Cheng, but halfway through she remembered Fang Zhou, subconsciously asking aloud.

Gou Cheng: "..."

Both their expressions stiffened.

Fang Zhou was currently pretending to be Ling Xiaoyue, an entry-level Qi Refinement cultivator; his Spirit Sword was retracted upon leaving the Heavenly Sword Sect, flying would expose him, wouldn’t it?

But neither Gou Cheng nor Qiao Sen considered this, treating him as a Perfect Foundation Establishment cultivator, so they didn’t bother about him.

The two hurriedly looked down, noticing waves rolling below, the river was turbulent, and Fang Zhou was nowhere to be seen.

However, neither was very concerned, at least Fang Zhou was certainly not in any danger.

...

At the moment of the ship sinking, Fang Zhou watched Gou Cheng flee with Qiao Sen but didn’t bring him along, and almost could not hold back from cursing.

Couldn’t you just lend a helping hand to your brother?

Fang Zhou didn’t think Gou Cheng forgot, but felt he did it on purpose, just like Xuan Ling always doing some insignificant things to annoy him.

Fang Zhou was now playing as the weakling Ling Xiaoyue, naturally unable to fly, and could only fall into the water with the ship.

Just as well, he wanted to see what kind of creature was swimming underneath.

Once in the water, the icy, bone-chilling river surrounded Fang Zhou.

Fang Zhou held his breath; after Foundation Establishment, Spiritual Energy can to a certain extent replace food and oxygen, long periods without breathing were manageable.

Fang Zhou widened his eyes, searching all around. Sadly, the river was somewhat murky, plus the obstruction from the shipwreck, he couldn’t see the giant aquatic creature’s traces at all.

Since there was no sign here, Fang Zhou could only continue sinking, intending to search deeper.

He did not notice, a silhouette was rapidly swimming towards him.

The person swimming over was Zhao Luofei; during the ship’s sinking, Zhao Luofei’s attention was not on Qiao Sen but on Fang Zhou.

Qiao Sen had the Heavenly Sword Sect’s immortals protecting her, Zhao Luofei was not very worried. However, she felt that the Heavenly Sword Sect’s immortals had a considerable misunderstanding regarding Fang Zhou’s impersonation of Ling Xiaoyue and were unlikely to protect him.

As expected, Zhao Luofei saw that Gou Cheng only rescued Qiao Sen, blatantly ignoring Fang Zhou who was within reach, letting him fall into the water as the ship broke.

Zhao Luofei was extremely angry, feeling more sympathetic towards Fang Zhou, so she followed suit by jumping into the water, intending to rescue him.

After jumping into the water, Zhao Luofei looked around for Fang Zhou’s figure, quickly finding him. Yet, she saw him sinking further.

Shocked, Zhao Luofei thought Fang Zhou couldn’t swim, immediately swimming over; as she was dissatisfied with the slow speed, she even removed her armor, leaving only her lightweight clothing.

Fang Zhou was seeking the traces of the aquatic creature, suddenly sensing someone swimming behind him, and soon found himself pulled by the shoulders and turned around.

Upon seeing Zhao Luofei appearing before him, Fang Zhou was somewhat surprised, but more so, touched.

That bastard Gou Cheng deliberately abandoned me, while this Long-legged General is truly loyal, even jumped down to save me.

There’s definitely an opportunity to send you two collections of old teacher Ji’s works as a gift; everyone exchanges some tips.

But then Zhao Luofei’s actions left Fang Zhou staring wide-eyed in shock.

She actually kissed him fiercely, prying open his mouth with her tongue, transferring air over.

Fang Zhou was dumbfounded; are you actually here not to save but to take advantage of me?

Well, Fang Zhou certainly knew Zhao Luofei thought he was drowning, thus rescued him this way.

This left him somewhat amusedly helpless, never expected he’d one day experience this nostalgic classic plot, and might even not know who’s taking advantage of whom.

However, Fang Zhou was indeed uninterested and had no mood to exploit the situation at this time, he stretched a hand trying to push Zhao Luofei away, while turning his head in another direction.

Zhao Luofei misunderstood Fang Zhou’s actions as a drowning person’s struggle, tightly hugging his body, swimming agilely with her legs, intending to bring him to the surface.

Fang Zhou didn’t dare exert too much strength, fearing Zhao Luofei would discover his hidden strength, could only let her carry him to the water’s surface.

But before Zhao Luofei could bring Fang Zhou to the surface, a violent current disoriented them both, sweeping them back underwater.

A massive dark shadow swiftly swam beneath, stirring countless torrents.

That giant aquatic creature finally appeared.

Fang Zhou disregarded exposing himself, and with a thought, the Xuanyuan Sword shot out from his gourd.

He had placed the entire Sword Box within the gourd, which allowed him to control only the Xuanyuan Sword by releasing it.

The grey Xuanyuan Sword was inconspicuous in the river, and Zhao Luofei did not notice it.

Fang Zhou manipulated the Xuanyuan Sword, shooting it towards the giant shadow in the water, and hit it instantly!

"Roar—"

A deep roar immediately rang out from underwater, shaking the river waters wildly, the swirling currents intensified, stirring up numerous sediment.

Zhao Luofei also noticed the giant aquatic creature and tightly hugged Fang Zhou, wanting to swim upward, but was pulled deeper by the swirling currents.

Fang Zhou was left helpless by this incapable teammate; if you hadn’t come, I could have handled it alone.

Now Fang Zhou couldn’t push Zhao Luofei away, only controlling the Xuanyuan Sword to pursue the giant aquatic creature.

That thing was injured by the Xuanyuan Sword, darting around frantically.

The surrounding currents grew increasingly fierce, while Fang Zhou was fine, Zhao Luofei had never experienced such a situation, even more thrilling than riding a roller coaster, being tossed dizzy, she nearly vomited, unable to discern directions.

More and more underwater sediment was churned up, making the river even murkier.

Fang Zhou’s sight quickly lost the giant aquatic creature’s trace, he sensed danger but given the swirling currents, escaping with just legs was futile. He could only recall the Xuanyuan Sword, planning to retreat.

Before the Xuanyuan Sword returned, the river suddenly split open in front of him, revealing a massive dark shadow.
