Starting with the titmouse, seventy-two transformations

Chapter 361 Killing the General, Subduing the Naval Commander, and the Ancestor's Standoff (Taking leave tomorrow)
On the surging river.

A giant ship lay on its side in the water, bobbing up and down, creating countless ripples, like a blue dragon struggling to survive.

Donglong!
This legendary treasure ship, which once roamed the Great Dragon River with its illustrious achievements, commanding the respect of countless powerful clans, sects, and merchants, and intimidating billions of aquatic creatures, is now as helpless as a lamb awaiting slaughter.

"Du Renwang, this is outrageous! Your Du family dares to storm the military town and slaughter the navy. Are you perhaps planning a rebellion?"

Just then, a furious shout rang out from inside the Donglong.

Immediately afterwards, a figure leaped out from the misty glow, wearing spiritual armor and a divine weapon, his square face stern and cold, shouting loudly.

Chunyu Donglong!

The garrison commander of Lianjiang Town, a demon-slaying general, is said to have once been an elder of a major sect, and later joined the ranks of Grand Commandant Song Yingtian, where he was proficient in naval warfare.

It can be said that over the years, relying on his flagship Donglong and his elite troops, he has been a veritable "local emperor" in the Lianjiang Town area.

They set up checkpoints to collect taxes, intercepted ships to extort bribes, and used all sorts of methods. They colluded with local powerful clans and sects to interfere in trade activities on the Dalong River. Relying on their government connections and the power they wielded, they made a fortune.

It can be said that if you want to do business in Dalongjiang, you can't afford to offend this person.

Unexpectedly, today I was chased and forced to flee in panic, like a stray dog.

At this point, even their flagship, the Donglong, had been overturned, leaving them only able to make empty threats.

Most of the naval commanders, captains, lieutenants, and centurions of Lianjiang Town who used to follow him and abuse his power to do evil are now drowning in the water, their fate unknown.

As for the "Du Renwang" he mentioned, this Du family patriarch, dressed in a tall hat and wide belt, had already arrived riding the waves, his expression indifferent, and his gaze not even on him.

Instead, they watched from several miles away as the warship slowly retreated.

The patriarch of the Su family.

"Du Renwang, this is no longer the time when you were in power six hundred years ago. Now the spiritual tide has been revived, and heroes from all over the world are as numerous as carp crossing a river, and there are even people with unparalleled talents like Grand Commandant!"
Our Great Yu is a land of outstanding people and abundant resources, with countless elite soldiers. We are bound by the laws of Great Yu. You... speak your mind properly. If you have any complaints, you can raise them with the court. Do not resort to violence and murder at the drop of a hat, lest you bring trouble upon yourself!

As an ancestor, even if you don't think of yourself, you should at least think of your descendants and the Du family of Bohai!

Seeing that Du Renwang did not kill him on the spot, Chunyu Donglong secretly breathed a sigh of relief and quickly gave him a long and earnest plea.

She used Song Yingtian as a threat, then offered words of comfort and persuasion, showcasing her flexible personality and silver tongue.

This demon-slaying general, renowned for his imposing presence and martial prowess, unexpectedly possessed such exquisite "eloquence."

pity--

Du Renwang frowned, giving him a cold glance, his eyes filled with disgust:

"Noisy!"

Before he finished speaking, the river beneath his feet suddenly boiled, and the surging liquid rose up, transforming into a crystal-clear water dragon with prominent horns and a length of hundreds of feet from head to tail.

With a roar, it swooped down towards Chunyu Donglong.

"you--"

Chunyu Donglong was terrified. He screamed and his body swayed as he fled in a blur. But after only ten or so feet, he was caught up by the water dragon and immediately submerged.

"what……"

Amidst screams, the water dragon shattered and returned to liquid, falling back into the Dalong River.

But Chunyu Donglong is no more.

Only a large ship, resembling a blue dragon, remained on the water, lying horizontally on the river, rising and falling with the waves.

A dignified demon-slaying general, the naval commander of Lianjiang Town, and a Yellow Court cultivator who had mastered the Lesser Heavenly Circuit, died without even lasting a single move.

Not even a trace was left.

The whole process was done casually, as if it were a theatrical performance.

Even the Donglong, built at great expense and touted as being able to withstand a 100,000-strong elite navy—

None of them had any effect whatsoever.

“The cultivation of this Du family patriarch, who instantly killed Chunyu Donglong at the Great Completion of the Yellow Court, is probably already at the Profound Realm, or even further…” Liu Sheng was secretly shocked. The overwhelming combat power displayed by the Du family patriarch made him feel immense pressure.

This is too terrible!

It even made him secretly wonder if that old dog Song, who had usurped the position of Grand Commandant for decades, wielded immense power and controlled countless resources, had also reached the Xuan level in cultivation.

If that's the case, wouldn't it be... for Master to go to the capital to seek revenge on him?

A lamb thrown into the tiger's den?!
"Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng!"

"Our ancestor is mighty! Our ancestor is invincible!"

……

Just then, the roars of the Du family echoed across the surrounding river, the sound waves surging.

After witnessing the terrifying combat power displayed by the Du family patriarch, the Du family members were greatly encouraged and spontaneously cheered, feeling proud of themselves.

In an instant, shouts rose one after another on the river, the people were of one mind and their morale was high.

Under the command of their respective ship owners, they launched wave after wave of fierce attacks on nearby naval warships.

Crossbow shooting, dart throwing, boarding, boarding ships, hand-to-hand combat...

They rushed forward, fighting bravely against the enemy.

In contrast, the morale of the imperial navy in Lianjiang Town plummeted, leaving them bewildered and at a loss.

Even the commander-in-chief of the army was killed on the spot, leaving not even ashes. What do they have to fight with?

They were already at a disadvantage in terms of strength, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to break through the military town's checkpoint. Now, even the Donglong, which carried the hopes of turning the tide, has capsized in the water, and the garrison commander has been publicly killed...

The trend is over!

Faced with the Du family's frenzied and relentless attacks, they were unable to mount any decent resistance and suffered repeated defeats.

Lost!

Totally defeated!

As the first captured warship changed hands, it became as if the virus was contagious, with one naval warship after another being captured along with its crew.

With such meager pay each month, why risk your life?
While the Du family fleet was busy forcing surrenders and incorporating them, Du Renwang, the patriarch of the Du family, had already sailed forward and arrived at the warship where the patriarch of the Su family was located.

Two auras, far more powerful than Huang Ting and the Great Demon, rose up and clashed head-on.

The turbulent waters surged and billowed, as if two terrifying water monsters were fighting and battling underwater.

A murderous aura surged, and killing intent soared to the heavens.

Countless aquatic creatures, including fish, shrimp, crabs, and turtles, could not withstand the impact and died instantly, floating belly up on the water.

As far as the eye can see, they are densely packed and stretch as far as the eye can see; there are probably no fewer than a million of them.

"Senior Du!"

At this moment, the Su family patriarch appeared on the warship. He stood on the deck, looking solemnly at Du Renwang, who was dressed in a tall hat and wide belt. After a moment of silence, he slowly bowed in salute.
"Junior Su Chengzhu..."

"I don't want to know who you are."

The Du family patriarch spoke indifferently, his gaze icy and his tone domineering:
"You hunted down my Du family's eldest daughter and conspired with others to plot against my Bohai Du family..."

Tell me, how should this debt be settled?

Upon hearing this, the Su family patriarch immediately knew that things would not end well today, and his eyes narrowed instantly.

Talented people emerge in every generation. He was sixty years younger than the Du family patriarch. By the time he became famous, the Du family patriarch's reputation had long been buried in the dust of history.

Therefore, he had heard about the deeds of the Du family patriarch, but he could not empathize with them.

Who isn't a peerless figure who dominates his generation, with an arrogant spirit?
If we can't reach an agreement, then let's fight!
