Chapter 903: Overbearing Tactics
At this moment, two disciples from prominent families walked over from the deck, discussing matters when they noticed a girl embedded in the shattered cabin nearby.
The girl's beauty and figure immediately caught the attention of the two disciples, their eyes widening in awe.
They were so captivated that they nearly drooled.
Such a stunning woman was something they had never encountered in their lives.
Exchanging a glance, the two immediately harbored wicked thoughts and quickly dragged the girl out.
They began showering her with flattery and sweet talk, trying to deceive her.
"Get lost!"
Mei Xian'er, with her delicate face, coldly tossed them into the dark sea.
She didn't care which powerful family they belonged to.
The seawater instantly swallowed the two, as if the dark waters hid something unknown.
But even after throwing the two fools into the sea, Mei Xian'er's anger remained unquenched.
Her jade-like hands clenched into fists, her delicate body trembling with rage.
She had never encountered such an insensitive man in her life.
First, he had thrown her over his shoulder, and now he had kicked her away. Such actions were simply unthinkable for a man.
Furious and beyond reason, she removed her disguise, intending to rush to the third floor, drag Yi Feng out, and give him a good beating, then demand to know if he was even a man.
However.
Just as she was about to leave, a familiar voice came from behind.
"What a coincidence, why are you here?"
Hearing this voice, Mei Xian'er's anger flared.
Because the person speaking was none other than Yi Feng, the very man she wanted to beat up.
She turned around, ready to strike, but Yi Feng quickly stepped back.
"Just now, I ran into a lowly female scammer at my room's door, and you happen to be here. You're not that scammer, are you?"
After saying this, Yi Feng looked at her with suspicion.
But after a moment of thought, he shook his head and muttered, "Although you're coincidentally here, upon closer consideration, it probably isn't you."
"That scammer used such a crude trick, claiming she was poisoned and needed to dual cultivate with me. Afterward, she said I wouldn't need to take responsibility and even offered me benefits. Such a low-level scam clearly shows a lack of intelligence."
"And you, after all, are the captain here. You lack nothing, and you don't seem that foolish."
"So, it's probably not you, right?"
After his analysis, Yi Feng looked up at Mei Xian'er and asked.
But he didn't realize that Mei Xian'er's anger had reached its peak upon hearing his words. Her jade-like hands clenched into fists under her robe, her nails digging into her palms, wishing she could tear Yi Feng apart on the spot.
At the same time, she began to doubt herself.
Was her acting really that bad? Was it truly as terrible as Yi Feng described?
This blow to her confidence was something she had never experienced before.
Seeing the disdain in Yi Feng's eyes, Mei Xian'er made a decision.
No.
She couldn't let him know that the girl earlier was her.
"Of course, it's not me."
She maintained a cold expression, slightly raising her chin and responding indifferently.
"Ha, I knew it wasn't you. You're the captain, after all. How could you do something like that in secret?" Yi Feng laughed.
"Of course."
"As the captain, how could I be that kind of person."
Mei Xian'er quickly distanced herself from the scammer.
"But speaking of that scammer, I still want to vent a bit. Claiming to be poisoned and needing to dual cultivate, then offering me benefits. How could anyone be so stupid? No one in the world would fall for such a trick, right?" Yi Feng continued.
Mei Xian'er's breathing grew heavy, her fists clenched tightly under her robe, making cracking sounds.
"What, does the captain not agree with what I said?" Yi Feng pressed.
"I, I agree."
Mei Xian'er's face had turned completely dark, her fists clenching even tighter under her sleeves.
"Oh, by the way, Captain, you still haven't told me why you're here. Shouldn't you be on the fourth floor?" Yi Feng asked suspiciously.
"Uh, I..."
Mei Xian'er's face darkened, hesitating for a long time before speaking with an air of righteousness, "I received a report that a female scammer had appeared on the eighth line's ship, so I came down to investigate."
"Oh, I see. So that's why the captain is here," Yi Feng said, suddenly understanding. "Then, Captain, you must ensure that this scammer is brought to justice."
"Don't worry, as the captain, I won't let her deceive anyone on my ship."
Mei Xian'er raised her hand to cover the gloom on her face, coughing lightly and speaking solemnly.
"With the captain here, I won't worry about it anymore."
"Farewell."
Yi Feng turned and left.
Behind him, Mei Xian'er was already gritting her teeth in anger.
But just as Yi Feng took a few steps, he turned back again.
She quickly looked away, maintaining her composure.
"Uh, the room you gave me is quite comfortable. I won't hold the fourth floor incident against you."
With that, Yi Feng walked away, hands behind his back.
But this final blow sent Mei Xian'er into a rage.
What did he mean by "I won't hold it against you"?
She hadn't even settled the score with him yet.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
In her extreme anger, the seawater nearby erupted with explosions, sending water dozens of feet into the air.
In her entire life, Mei Xian'er had never been so thoroughly defeated by a man.
She looked up at the distant port, an idea forming in her mind.
"Little brat, since you want to play, I'll play with you. Let's see how you escape my grasp."
With a wave of her hand, Mei Xian'er issued a command.
Soon after, the eighth line ship docked at the port.
Countless cultivators who had been waiting eagerly at the port prepared to board, only to be stopped by the ship's crew.
Not only that.
The cultivators already on the ship were also forcibly driven off.
This sudden turn of events threw the entire port into chaos, with protests and curses filling the air.
By the window on the fourth floor.
Mei Xian'er sat with her long legs crossed, holding a cup of tea and watching the chaos below, completely unfazed.
"Hmph, what do you think you're doing?"
At that moment, a middle-aged man from the crowd being driven off leaped into the air, shouting angrily, "I am Qin Batian, the Island Lord of Fengtian Island! Why are you driving me off the ship? Just because you're from Linglong Pavilion, does that mean you can act so tyrannically?"
"Yeah, exactly!"
"Why are you driving us off?"
With Qin Batian leading the charge, the crowd's emotions surged, and they began shouting curses, almost storming back onto the eighth line ship.
But at that moment.
A red light flashed from the fourth floor, breaking through Qin Batian's defenses with overwhelming force and sending him crashing into the dark sea.
Fortunately, they were near the port, so he survived, but he was severely injured. Climbing out of the water like a drowned rat, he hung his head and dared not speak another word.
Linglong Pavilion's overbearing tactics immediately silenced the rest of the crowd, who could only watch helplessly as the eighth line ship drove everyone off and sailed away.
Mei Xian'er, sipping her tea by the window, paid no attention to the commotion at the port. Only when the eighth line ship had left the port and was surrounded by endless seawater did she slowly set down her cup.
"Someone, bring that boy up here."
She said leisurely.
