Gu Long's World: Starting with the Legend of Chu Liuxiang

Scarlet Persian carpets covered the long steps, and floor-length curtains made of velvet hung in the windows and doors.

The general's battle robe was also scarlet, as if every inch of it was stained with the blood of his enemies.

Two men stood behind the general, swords at their sides.

An old woman with a face full of wrinkles still had hair as black as a young girl's, while a young woman with beautiful features had gray hair at her temples.

There was only one thing in the cabin that was pure black; it was completely black, so black it shone.

No matter who enters the cabin, this thing will immediately attract their attention.

The black panther lay at the general's feet, as quiet as a sleeping cat.

The second general was also a woman, tall and wild, like a black panther lying at her feet.

"Check-in!"

"Sign-in for General Leopard Princess successfully, and obtained the location of the Heavenly King Island of Information History."

"Successfully checked in with the old sword attendant woman and gained three years' worth of internal energy."

"Successfully signed in with the young sword attendant woman and gained three years' worth of internal energy."

Jiang Fengyue was secretly delighted. Just when she was wondering where to find Shi Tianwang, General Leopard Girl brought her the location of Shi Tianwang.

General Leopard said sternly, "You have some nerve to board my ship."

She seemed to tacitly agree that once Jiang Fengyue and Chu Liuxiang boarded the ship, they were already her prisoners.

Chu Liuxiang laughed and said, "If I had known there were generals like the Second General on the ship, I would have regretted not coming here sooner."

The general glanced at Chu Liuxiang, then at Jiang Fengyue, and said, "I know you. You are the famous Chu Liuxiang."

She clearly did not recognize Jiang Fengyue.

Chu Liuxiang smiled and said, "In terms of reputation, I'm afraid I'm inferior to King Shi."

General Leopard Princess shouted, "What is your purpose in coming to this sea area?"

Chu Liuxiang said in a deep voice, "I am only curious about one thing now. Why did you send someone to kidnap Hu Tiehua? Could it be that you are afraid that Princess Yujian will marry into the sea and steal your favor?"

General Leopard Princess nodded frankly and said, "Yes."

She added, "Right now, I'm the person King Shi favors most. He even appointed me General Leopard Princess. If she comes, what am I?"

Jiang Fengyue interjected, "If King Shi truly loved you, why did he marry her?"

General Leopard smiled and said, "Because she is a princess, and I am not. It seems I was born only to be someone's concubine."

Chu Liuxiang gave a wry smile.

General Leopard looked at Chu Liuxiang and said, "I can let you go, but I hope that Commander Chu can do me a favor."

Chu Liuxiang asked in surprise, "What is it?"

General Leopard Princess said, "Kill someone for me."

Chu Liuxiang frowned and asked, "Who?"

General Leopard Princess said, word by word, "Princess Jade Sword."

Chu Liuxiang frowned even more.

Jiang Fengyue coldly said, "Apart from King Shi, I'm afraid no one in the world would want to see Princess Yujian marry into the sea."

General Leopard Princess smiled and said, "In that case, aren't we all doing the same thing?"

Jiang Fengyue said, "You're wrong. It's because the one who deserves to die is definitely not Princess Jade Sword."

General Leopard's expression changed slightly, but she still forced a smile and asked, "What does this mean?"

Jiang Fengyue asked, "Do you know why we went to sea?"

General Leopard Princess replied, "I don't know."

She could never have imagined that someone would specifically come to the sea to find King Shi, because doing so was no different from committing suicide.

Jiang Fengyue sneered, "Just to take Shi Tianwang's head."

General Leopard's expression changed drastically upon hearing this.

Jiang Fengyue then slowly said, "The one who deserves to die is not Princess Yujian, but King Shi."

General Leopard Princess shouted, "How dare you! You have such audacity! I will not let you leave this ship alive today!"

The two swords behind General Leopard were drawn, piercing the air like bolts of lightning, and thrusting towards Jiang Fengyue.

Unfortunately, any sword in the world was like scrap metal in front of him.

As soon as Jiang Fengyue drew his sword, the old woman and the young woman fell to the ground.

Until his sword was sheathed, no one knew when he had made the move.

Jiang Fengyue approached General Leopard Princess step by step.

General Panther Princess finally felt fear. She slapped the black panther lying at her feet awake and shouted, "Stop him!"

As if understanding General Leopard's words, the black panther pounced on Jiang Fengyue.

There is nothing purely black here anymore. Even though the black panther's skin and fur are black, its blood is not black.

Jiang Fengyue drew his sword and slashed down, splitting the black panther in two. Crimson blood fell onto the equally crimson Persian carpet.

……

Jiang Fengyue and Chu Liuxiang returned to their warship, and Jiang Fengyue took over the helm from Zhang San.

If you look back now, you will see several ships slowly sinking.

Before long, only one ship remained in that area of ​​the sea.

As the sun dipped below the horizon, everyone breathed a sigh of relief in the twilight.

Zhang San sighed softly, "I really shouldn't have underestimated you. Whether on land or at sea, you always have a way to solve any problem."

Chu Liuxiang smiled and said, "If it weren't for the ship you built, we would probably have been buried at sea long ago."

The sun slowly sank into the sea, night quietly fell, and it was time for the weary to rest.

Jiang Fengyue, however, was still gripping the helm tightly; he seemed to never need to rest.

He hasn't had a peaceful life in a long time, and even if he doesn't go looking for trouble, trouble will definitely come knocking on his door.

Jiang Fengyue didn't feel tired; he only felt fulfilled. Perhaps this was the kind of life he wanted.

He's always been someone who can't sit still.

Zhang San walked up to him, ready to take over his shift, and asked, "When are we returning?"

Jiang Fengyue shook her head and smiled, "We're not turning back."

Zhang San exclaimed in surprise, "You don't mean you're still thinking of finding that Heavenly King Shi?"

Jiang Fengyue said, "I went out to sea specifically to find him, I can't just return empty-handed, can I?"

Zhang San muttered, "But his subordinates are already this troublesome. If this entire sea area belongs to him, who knows how many dangers are lurking there? Besides..."

He paused for a moment, then continued, "Besides, it would be difficult for us to find where Shi Tianwang is."

Jiang Fengyue released the helm with both hands, patted Zhang San on the shoulder, and smiled, "Look ahead."

Zhang San looked up and could vaguely see the endless beach. They hadn't returned to the mainland, but the island in front of them was so big that even from a distance, the outline of the island couldn't be seen.

This island is at least larger than four or five Bat Islands combined.

Zhang San exclaimed in surprise, "There are places like this overseas? I've never heard of them before. They're even more amazing than Bat Island!"

Jiang Fengyue laughed and said, "When you see a place like this, you should be able to guess who lives up there."

Zhang San exclaimed, "You mean...?"

Jiang Fengyue said, "King Shi."
