Chapter 41: The Lei Clan’s Three Fiends

Dream Dao Attainment, Opening Scheme Against Cultivators

Dream-Making Expert

Above the sea, under dark clouds and crashing thunder.

A tower ship, clearly a tiny bit more advanced than the Treasure Armor Ship Lin Qi and the others rode, hovered in the air above the ocean.

Three identical Daoists sat cross-legged atop the flag sails, coldly watching a Treasure Armor Ship break through the waves.

“Here comes work.”

The three spoke in unison, then suddenly rose. The tower ship beneath them immediately moved toward the Treasure Armor Ship.

Before it even drew close.

Cannon ports extended from the tower ship the three were on, mounted with the same Fire God Cannons as the Treasure Armor Ship.

The cannons roared, and battle erupted in an instant.

Lin Qi was baffled. Dodging cannon fire, he looked toward Xiao Mingcheng and the others in the cabin.

“Oh no, it’s the Lei Clan’s Three Fiends.”

“Senior Brother Yang, act quickly, we can’t let them get any closer.”

Xiao Mingcheng shouted. Hiding in the cabin, not daring to show his head, he cursed the three Lei brothers inside his heart.

The script wasn’t written like this.

We agreed they’d wait until Lin Qi was lured off the ship before making a move.

Chen Fan and Xiao Wei also looked like they were doubting life itself.

Big Brother, are you sure these are the helpers you contacted?

These damn cannons are about to blast our faces off.

“Just who are they?”

Lin Qi was a little lost.

One moment they had been leisurely searching beneath the sea for traces of demon beasts.

The next, they leaped out of the water and ran headfirst into an ambush, a cannon shot to the face.

Lin Qi couldn’t understand it.

Though he vaguely detected the flavor of a conspiracy.

But that shouldn’t be.

After meeting Xiao Mingcheng and the others, he had prided himself on doing nothing to expose his identity, nor flaunting his wealth to stir men’s hearts.

Could it be he had boarded a pirate ship?

For the moment, Lin Qi couldn’t think of a motive for Xiao Mingcheng and the others to scheme against him.

So he had no choice but to treat the attack before him as an accident.

And it did seem like an accident.

After all, the enemy ship’s cannons weren’t only aimed at him.

Maybe they really had just run into pirates?

Only, did the world of cultivation even have pirates?

Lin Qi thought to himself, then spoke again. “Their firepower is fierce. Dive beneath the sea and shake them off.”

“Senior Brother Yang, we can’t shake them off.”

“They’re on a Gold-Armor Ship. It’s superior to our Treasure Armor Ship in every way.”

“We can only fight head-on!”

“Besides, they’re the notorious Lei Clan’s Three Fiends. They betray their masters and ancestors, and stop at nothing evil.”

“Running into them, we can only fight to the death.
