As such, Yu Yangtao had little confidence. He was no way near Chen Sha’s prowess.

  That was not all. The scary explosion was neutralized by Chen Sha with his iceberg. Then, he broke apart the iceberg and turned it into a make-shift boat. Another two powerful auras ascended from underwater.

  Both Wang Yangying and Yang Qian were here, too.

  Three B-tiers!

  Cold sweats began to appear on Yu Yangtao’s forehead.

  On the Deep-sea Feng Li, the crew who cheered on earlier had gone silent. Their morales had been overwhelmed by deep fear.

  To them, B-tier auras were terrifying. They seemed to have lost control over their consciousness and body.

  “What are we going to do?”


  “Three B-tiers! Can we survive this?”


  “Should we attack? The cannons on our vessel might be our only chance!”


  The C-tier gunners were scared and panicked. They had lost all their composure.

  They could only turn to Qin Feng and placed their remaining, timid hope on him entirely.

  To their horror, Qin Feng had disappeared from the control room.

  He Jia was stunned. “Where’s Governor Qin?”


  Qin Feng had left without saying a word when they needed him the most.

  One of the crew members was flustered and shouted, “Where is he? Don’t tell me he had run and abandoned us here!”


  “Shut up. Look!” Sun Tianyuan yelled back. His sight was fixated on the front window of the vessel. A man was standing proudly outside, on top of the submarine surface.

  It was none other than Qin Feng. He had walked out fearlessly.

  The crew members gripped their fists tightly, wondering what Qin Feng would do next.

  “He wants to challenge B-tiers?”


  “How? He is merely a C-tier!”


  “It’s useless. Should we make a run for it?”


  Among them, He Jia was the only one who overturned her doubt into unwavering faith.

  “I believe in Governor Qin. He is a man with power beyond our imagination.”


  The others could hardly agree with her sentiment. “So what? The opponents are B-tiers!”


  “Governor Qin might have hidden his true strength. Still, he is C9-tier at best. That’s not enough to fight three B-tiers at once. Moreover, we are talking about Chen Sha here!”


  Chen Sha, a merciless pirate, a devil in this unforgiving ocean.

  Qin Feng was facing an emperor that had survived this ocean.

  The waves roared furiously. The vessel under Qin Feng and the ice under Chen Sha were wobbling.

  Their eyes met and they could feel the killing intent in each other’s sight.

  “I want to meet your master. What are you, a C-tier, doing out here?” Chen Sha’s voice was filled with subtle anger.

  The loss of the Sea Devil Vessel was extensive. A deep-sea vessel cost at least a trillion. This was the first time Chen Sha had experienced such a huge defeat in his years of piracy.

  Chen Sha swore he was going to tear the person responsible for the destruction of the Sea Devil apart.

  Qin Feng replied, “I am the captain of this vessel!”


  Chen Sha could no longer hold back his fury. “Great! Since when did a mere C-tier become so fearless? But it matters not. I will know who’s behind you once I take your life!” He boosted his conscious power. Instantly, snowy runes sprang up and spread rapidly across the sea.

  The runes instantaneously froze the raging sea. The ice stretched violently and reached Deep-sea Feng Li in no time.

  Aptitude users inside the vessel were terrified. They knew this was Chen Sha’s ability barrier. If they did not retreat now, the vessel would be trapped inside the ice floe and their lives would be at Chen Sha’s mercy.

  But since they did not receive any orders from Qin Feng, they neither retreated nor retaliated.

  Qin Feng did not hesitate and raised his equally powerful fire runes.

  Scarlet runes spread around the periphery of the vessel and boiled the seawater. The water eventually turned red and transformed into molten lava.

  The lava collided with the incoming ice floe and……

  Boom!

  The two flows of energy crashed and created a deafening explosion.

  A thick fog ascended but was quickly blown away by the strong wind.

  Qin Feng kicked his legs and lunged forward. His momentum was so unbelievably huge that it pushed the vessel a few hundred meters backward.

  “Pull out as far as possible!” Qin Feng delivered his order through his consciousness.

  The crew in the vessel was first stunned, then reacted instinctively. They did not expect Qin Feng to effectively resist Chen Sha’s assault. Being freed from the predicament, they acted frantically to steer the vessel away from the scene.

  Chen Sha was even more infuriated seeing that the Deep-sea Feng Li was escaping.

  Qin Feng was somehow looking down on him.

  “You think you can hold me back by yourself?” Chen Sha said and once again triggered his conscious power.

  Each ability user had his or her own Diamond Starglobe full of runes on it. These runes would turn into ability when released. Chen Sha’s rune volume was apparently tremendous.

  Also, there was seawater everywhere. The water could be turned into ice anytime and used by Chen Sha. The geographical advantage boosted his ability by at least three more levels.

  From his perspective, he could slaughter Qin Feng with ease.

  Instantly, the ice on the frozen sea surface was molded into one after another ice javelin and was shot toward Qin Feng.

  There was visibly no gap between the packed spearheads.

  ‘Just some ice javelins!’ Qin Feng sneered and triggered his Diamond Starglobe. Enormous fire runes appeared out of thin air.

  Though Qin Feng had zero advantage in this battleground, he compensated it with his seemingly endless fire runes.

  The runes had also turned into one after another fire javelin that was headed right at the incoming icy rain.

  The two abilities collided.

  Bam! Boom! Bam! Boom!

  The ice shattered and the fire exploded.

  Chen Sha’s face contorted into a grimace.

  The person in front of him was just a C-tier but time and again, he had successfully nullified his attacks. This pissed him off.

  “Again! Ice Cyclone!”


  Qin Feng did not back down.

  “Fire Dragon!”


  “Roar!”


  Two giant dragons of opposing elements rammed in midair.

  It once again ended in a draw.

  They fought feverishly on the sea surface and none refused to back down.

  But soon, they realized Qin Feng had not been going at full strength.

  Even under such conditions, his fire runes continued to assault Chen Sha and he gradually gained the upper hand.

  Not only were Chen Sha’s comrades surprised, but Yu Yangtao, who initially planned to help, realized that there was no room for him to intervene.

  ‘Jeez!’ Yu Yangtoa gasped and muttered, ‘Where did this guy come from?’
