Chapter 301 Uncharted Waters: Daughter of the Dragon (End)

The sea was filled with smoke and several large ships were constantly bombarding.

There was fighting everywhere on the pirate ship. The sounds of swords clashing, wailing, and cannon fire mixed together and echoed throughout the sea.

On the deck of the pirate ship, Princess Yongqing wielded her Embroidered Spring Sword and chopped the enemy's scimitar in one stroke.

The pirate captain quickly raised his left hand and tried to pierce Princess Yongqing's neck with the hook on his wrist.

Princess Yongqing swung her sword and chopped off his hooked prosthetic hand.

The wounds inflicted by the red-glowing Xiuchun Knife looked like they had been burned.

The pirate captain staggered back a few steps, leaning against the cabin and roaring, his eyes began to glow a strange red, but before he could get up, he was pierced through the heart by the Embroidered Spring Knife and nailed to the cabin.

Princess Yongqing drew out the knife expressionlessly, and the blood on the blade evaporated before it could even drip off.

On the deck, Hongguang was struggling with the first mate of the pirate ship. He dodged flexibly and occasionally pulled a pirate over to block the knife for himself.

Princess Yongqing took one look at him and walked into the cabin. When she saw the helmsman from Malacca hiding under the rudder, she was about to call him out, but a hidden arrow flew over and pierced the helmsman's head.

Princess Yongqing turned her head to look outside, only to see a green snake tail flash by.

It's that woman again!

Princess Yongqing fixed her eyes and broke the window to chase after him.

Uesugi Rumi turned around and looked at Princess Yongqing, and the giant snake coiled on her shoulder was also spitting out its tongue.

Princess Yongqing took a step and flew over, but she didn't expect that Uesugi Rumi would jump onto the deck in a flash.

When Uesugi Rumi saw Hongguang, she immediately slid over and tried to catch him.

"Be careful!" Princess Yongqing shouted loudly.

Hongguang was stunned and almost killed by the first mate's sword, but he also saw Uesugi Rumi rushing towards him, and he screamed and tried to run away.

The big snake on Uesugi Rumi's body hissed and flew out of her body and directly wrapped around Hongguang.

Hongguang was instantly entangled by the big snake and fell to the ground. Uesugi Rumi quickly walked up to him, grabbed his collar and ran towards the side of the boat.

The female guard on the deck who had shot a crossbow arrow at Hongguang raised her hand and shot a crossbow arrow at him.

Uesugi Rumi rolled over to avoid it, and Hongguang took the opportunity to struggle away, rolling on the ground several times to avoid Uesugi Rumi.

The big snake wrapped around him suddenly tightened, and Hongguang roared in pain. Looking at the tongue so close to him, Hongguang tried hard to take out a knife from his sleeve and stab the big snake.

The big snake let go of him instantly, suddenly grew bigger, and opened its bloody mouth to swallow him in one gulp.

Uesugi Rumi screamed to stop it, but it was too late.

Princess Yongqing arrived at this time, jumped onto the big snake, and stabbed it directly with a knife in her backhand.

The giant snake twisted its huge body in pain, and everyone on the deck was thrown out.

Uesugi Rumi drew her samurai sword and chased after Princess Yongqing.

Princess Yongqing didn't even look back, she lowered her head and shouted to Hongguang: "Let's go!"

Hongguang jumped up, jumped onto the chain with the help of the female guard, and ran towards the Pinghai.

After Hongguang jumped onto the chain, he looked back and saw Princess Yongqing chopping Uesugi Rumi with a knife and sending her flying. The big snake spurted blood and quickly shrank, wrapped around Uesugi Rumi and jumped into the sea. Princess Yongqing also followed suit and jumped into the sea.

Hongguang looked down at the sea and saw a giant snake twisting its body and swimming continuously under the water. Princess Yongqing stuck a knife into the snake's tail and was dragged away.

The giant snake dragged Princess Yongqing toward the Malacca Strait, which was shimmering with storms.

"Save the princess!"

Hongguang shouted anxiously, jumped into the sea with a splash and grabbed the big snake's tail.

"Princess!" The female guard on the pirate ship also shouted anxiously when she saw this scene.

A speedboat also quickly adjusted its direction, but no one was seen when it reached the edge of the strait.

"It's over, the princess has entered the strait!"

In the sea, there was a flashing thunderstorm overhead, illuminating the seabed clearly.

Hongguang held his breath and held the snake tightly. Uesugi Rumi looked back and slid down the snake's body, slashing the broken samurai sword in her hand towards Hongguang's neck.

Hongguang was so scared that he let go immediately and was washed away by the surging sea. In the moment of danger, Princess Yongqing reached out and grabbed him.

Hongguang wanted to scream after surviving the disaster but his mouth was filled with sea water.

At this time, the three of them had reached their limit of holding their breath. Uesugi Rumi had no choice but to pat the big snake, and the big snake suddenly rushed out of the sea. The three of them took the opportunity to breathe.

There was a raging storm overhead, and the flashing thunder illuminated the faces of the three people clearly.

The snake's tail was bleeding and had a scimitar stuck in it. It jumped out of the sea and then fell down weakly.

The big snake tried hard to maintain its balance to prevent itself from falling to the bottom of the sea.

The three of them were floating on the sea holding the big snake.

"Draw your sword! Or we three will die!"

Uesugi Rumi suddenly shouted to Princess Yongqing in extremely standard Ming Dynasty Mandarin.

Princess Yongqing looked at her coldly and twirled the knife in her hand vigorously.

Hongguang was scared to death. He looked up at the storm in the sky and quickly helped to persuade Princess Yongqing.

There is no boat here. If the big snake dies, the three of them will really have no choice but to wait for death here.

Princess Yongqing finally stopped, but she didn't draw her sword. She just stopped using more force.

Uesugi Rumi breathed a sigh of relief, stared at Princess Yongqing and said, "Let's stop fighting for now. I can take you across the Malacca Strait."

Hongguang immediately said: "Do you think we are stupid? There are pirates all over the strait. We have to wait here for the Ming fleet to come in!"

Princess Yongqing didn't say anything, Hongguang was right.

However, how could Uesugi Rumi wait here for the Ming fleet to come in? She directly controlled the snake and rushed towards the depths of the strait.

The big snake and the three people quickly disappeared in the endless storm.

At this time, on the other side of the strait, all the pirates who arrived here first were quietly staying on the sea.

On the Black Octopus, several captains were sitting on the deck looking towards the strait.

After a while, someone suddenly looked at the old captain sitting on the deck and asked, "Black Octopus, is what you said true? Is that guy really the blood of the King of the Sea, the key to unlock the treasure?"

The old captain tapped the chair with his whip without answering.

Seeing that he didn't answer them, the pirate captains were a little annoyed, but intimidated by his reputation, they all endured it.

At this moment, they were looking at the strait flashing with storms and could not help but start talking about it.

They were all worried about whether Uesugi Rumi could bring the person back.

Soon a giant snake rushed out from the stormy strait, with three people hanging on its body.

Everyone on the Black Octopus saw it and couldn't help but come to the side of the boat and shout.

"Why is there one more person?"

"Looking at his clothes, he looks like someone from the Ming Dynasty."

"She is the princess of Ming Dynasty!"

There was silence on the pirate ship for a moment, and then everyone cheered. They didn't expect that the snake woman could capture the princess of the Ming Dynasty.

Only when they got closer did the pirates see clearly that it was not the Snake Woman who grabbed Princess Daming, but Princess Daming who put the knife to the Snake Woman's neck.

The glowing red blade burned Uesugi Rumi's skin red.

Hongguang looked at the huge Black Octopus and never thought that he would come back one day.

On the Black Octopus, the old captain suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Hongguang soaking in the sea.

Hongguang subconsciously hid behind Princess Yongqing.

Princess Yongqing looked up at the sail with the black octopus printed on it, then glanced at the pirates on the pirate ship without any change in her expression.

The old captain stood up, looked at the pirates and said, "Bring them up!"

At this time, on the other side of the Malacca Strait, the Pinghai had turned around and was preparing to bypass the strait to head to Lanka Island.

No one chose to risk crossing the Malacca Strait, seemingly without concern for the princess's safety.

On the other side of the strait, on the Black Octopus, Princess Yongqing sat on the steps of the deck, with the knife in her hand still on Uesugi Rumi's neck.

The surrounding pirates wanted to rush over, but were stopped by Uesugi Rumi's samurai.

The old captain looked at this scene and did not choose to take action, but just ordered the fleet to set off towards Lanco Island.

I don’t know how long it took, but the sea had already fallen into night.

On the deck, Princess Yongqing also figured out the situation. She looked at Hongguang and asked, "Are you really the blood of the King of the Sea?"

Hongguang shook his head to indicate that he didn't know.

"What's with the mark on the back of your hand?"

"I grew up in Malacca and was captured by the old man."

Princess Yongqing did not ask any more questions, and soon the pirate ship followed the sea chart of the treasure map and entered a fog. After sailing in the fog for an unknown period of time, the fleet finally broke through the fog and came out.

The old captain stood up and looked at the foggy island ahead and couldn't help but said, "Misty Island."

"Not even half of the fleet came out!"

Suddenly someone came to report, and the pirates all looked around and found that more than half of the fleet was indeed missing.

But they hoped for this, as this would reduce the number of people fighting for the treasure.

There were also people on the deck thinking about how to snatch Hongguang away and monopolize the treasure of the King of the Sea alone.

No, it should be said that it occupies the clues of the treasure!
Uesugi Rumi also looked at Princess Yongqing, who had always controlled her life and death, and said, "Let's join forces. Once we get to the island, you won't be able to survive!"

Princess Yongqing silently moved her knife away. Uesugi Rumi thought that Princess Yongqing agreed to her suggestion, but before she could show any excitement on her face, she saw the Xiuchun Knife placed on Hongguang.

Uesugi Rumi: “.” As expected of a Ming princess!

Hongguang: "It's hot, can you put the fire down?" We're one, princess, please be careful!!!
Princess Yongqing ignored him, but at this time Uesugi Rumi had already taken the opportunity to escape.

The surrounding pirates gathered over and were all dumbfounded when they saw this scene.

They all cursed the snake girl's subordinates, saying that if they had not stopped them before, they would have snatched Hongguang away long ago!

Now they can only compromise temporarily.

It didn't take long for everyone to reach the island.

After all the pirates entered the Misty Island, dozens of Ming Dynasty treasure ships suddenly appeared on the horizon.

The entire Ming fleet that was rumored to have suffered a shipwreck in the storm appeared.

A general on the treasure ship in the front looked at the empty pirate ships docked in front of the island and waved his hand to speed up the fleet. At the same time, a sturdy soldier picked up a long bull horn and blew it.

On the Misty Island, Princess Yongqing's ears moved slightly, and the old captain walking in front paused and then continued to move forward.

At this time, Hongguang was being escorted by Princess Yongqing, but he kept scolding the old captain.

"Old man! You knew it all along, didn't you?"

"Am I really the blood of the King of the Sea?"

"You treat the blood of the King of the Sea like this and ask me to bring you a urine bucket!"

Princess Yongqing was annoyed by his words, so she slapped him on the face with the knife in her hand and said, "Shut up!"

Hongguang said "oh" and shut up.

The old captain looked back at Princess Yongqing, a complicated look flashing in his eyes.

Princess Yongqing twitched her nose slightly, and her eyes narrowed slightly as she looked at the old captain under her visor.

At this moment, a strange sound suddenly rang out in the foggy jungle, and everyone was on high alert.

Suddenly, a scream of fear was heard from the team, and then it disappeared.

The terrifying atmosphere instantly made everyone nervous, and the surrounding fog seemed to be alive.

The pirate leaders suppressed their fear, stopped the riot in the team and forced them to move on.

But the fear will not disappear, it will only accumulate. Screams continue to be heard in the team, and with every scream, one person disappears.

Soon they came to the center of the island, in front of a huge waterfall. The falling water of the waterfall emitted thick mist.

“Can we just walk through the waterfall?”

“This waterfall looks so weird!”

But when they thought about the endless treasures behind the waterfall, everyone couldn't help but cheer.

It wasn't me who died before!

Now that I have come this far alive, the treasure will belong to me!

After passing the waterfall, a huge cave appeared before everyone.

In the middle of the cave there is a deep green pool, and in the middle of the pool grows a tree, a tree made of gold!
There is a ray of sunlight shining above the golden tree, making the whole tree emit an alluring glow that makes it impossible to open your eyes.

There are also many boxes and antique treasures under the tree.

All the pirates rushed over uncontrollably, trying to grab the treasure.

However, the pirate leaders did not care about these things. There were very few things here, and they were more concerned about where the real treasure of the King of the Sea was.

That would be a treasure that even dozens of ships couldn’t carry away!
"The clue to the treasure map is on that tree?! How do I get it?"

Someone looked at the old captain and asked.

The old captain looked at Hongguang and said, "Go over and smear the blood on the golden tree."

Hongguang looked at the hungry wolf eyes of the crowd and said stiffly: "No!"

"If you don't go, you will all die!" The pirates around them all drew their knives and pointed them at them.

Hongguang looked back at Princess Yongqing helplessly, then walked with her to the golden tree and cut his palm and rubbed it on the tree.

The golden tree quickly absorbed his blood. The golden leaves began to shake, and then a golden fruit grew out. It was engraved with mysterious patterns, and if you looked closely it looked like a star map.

At this time, the pirates were all amazed at the magic of the golden tree. Hongguang took the opportunity to pull off the fruit and shouted to Princess Yongqing: "Run!"

Hongguang said this and ran away with the golden fruit, but Princess Yongqing did not move.

Hongguang ran a few steps before looking back, and found that Princess Yongqing's sword had already caught fire, blocking all the pirates who wanted to chase him.

Hongguang was stunned. He didn't expect that Princess Yongqing would take the initiative to stay behind and let him go first.

Hongguang looked at the golden fruit in his hand and then at Princess Yongqing. He gritted his teeth and threw the golden fruit directly at the old captain.

"Old man! Pick it up!"

The old captain looked up subconsciously, and immediately swung the whip to wrap around the golden fruit and pulled it back.

All the pirates looked at the old captain.

"Old octopus! Hand over the stuff!"

The old captain weighed the golden fruit in his hand and said with a smile, "Come and get it if you can."

A big battle was about to break out, Hongguang ran over, grabbed Princess Yongqing's hand and was ready to run.

Princess Yongqing looked at him and asked, "Don't you want to be the king of the sea? Why did you hand over the things?"

"The King of the Sea is not as important as the Princess!"

Princess Yongqing looked at him, broke free from his arms, turned around and rushed towards the center of the fighting.

Hongguang gritted his teeth, picked up a scimitar and rushed over!

Hongguang blocked a sneak attack from a pirate and stood behind Princess Yongqing, saying with a smile: "I heard that the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty cannot abandon the princess! I won't do that either!"

The corners of Princess Yongqing's eyes twitched slightly under her visor.

The old captain was waving his whip and fighting with the pirates. The whole cave became a battlefield and everyone was fighting.

Some went for the golden fruit, some for the treasures, and some for the golden tree.

Everyone was fighting, but Princess Yongqing had only one goal, which was the golden fruit.

Hongguang was also cooperating with Princess Yongqing to fight for it.

"Hey! Old man!" Hongguang suddenly shouted, and while the old captain was not paying attention, he snatched the golden fruit and threw it at Princess Yongqing.

The old captain angrily whipped Hongguang to the corner of the cave, chased after the golden fruit, and killed several pirates who blocked his way.

After Princess Yongqing got the golden fruit, she ran towards the golden tree, stepped on the golden tree, took out a sealed copper tube from her waist, twisted it with both hands and pointed it at the skylight.

A red light suddenly shot out, flew straight into the sky and exploded above the island.

At this time, outside Misty Island, on the Ming fleet, the young general saw the signal and immediately waved his hands and shouted: "Prepare the cannons! Bombard!"

Countless flames spewed out, and shells emitting black smoke flew towards the entire Misty Island.

The pirates in the cave were still chasing Princess Yongqing when they felt the earth shaking.

The cave also began to shake violently, and the ceiling above suddenly cracked, allowing countless waters to pour in.

Hongguang stood up in the corner of the cave, rubbing his chest. He ran to Princess Yongqing and kicked a pirate away, pulling her and shouting, "It's going to collapse. Run!"

But just as he finished his words, the entire cave collapsed, and the waterfall outside poured back in, washing everyone away.

Hongguang held Princess Yongqing tightly, and just as he emerged from the water to take a breath, he saw a big green snake swimming in the water.

"Our ship is coming!"

After an unknown amount of time, the island became quiet. By a stream, a large green snake slowly crawled into the woods, but an embroidered spring knife suddenly flew over and stabbed in front of it.

The big snake looked back and saw Princess Yongqing looking at him with the golden fruit in her hand, while Hongguang was holding a dagger against Uesugi Rumi's neck and looking at him with a smile.

At this time, outside the Misty Island, a huge black octopus suddenly emerged from the bottom of the sea, with the Black Octopus on its head.

The old captain stood on the boat and looked at the Misty Island and shouted: "Hongguang! I will definitely catch you!"

At this time, a ghost ship also turned into mist and slipped away silently.

(I can’t write well, haha. Short stories are still not good. The details and character creation are not very good. I wrote a lot of foreshadowing, but there was no chance to expand it. I will make up for it after the book is finished.)
(I have been slow to update these past few days, please forgive me. These chapters are not well written, and I have told you that you can skip them and it will not affect the later plot. You can criticize me for not updating often, but don't criticize me for cheating you out of money. I told you before I wrote that you can skip them and it will not affect the plot.)
