When the smoke from shelling had stopped for a moment, finally it was where the fighting will turn into critical juncture when the ragtag army was getting ready for a second attack. Suddenly everyone heard a roaring sound coming through the sky.
“What is that noise?” The crowd looked up with strange expressions.
It was a fire red signal bombs flashing straight into the sky. Su Su narrowed her eyes then laughed in a low voice, ” They are going to retreat.”
Su Su has been waiting for this withdrawal order. Because it showed that Tantai Ye Lie was still alive and awake, if not him, no one would do such a dare to withdraw the army. If he died, Liao Yue will never mind dying with him, they will never withdraw. Although he hugged her and threatened her really badly, but if he died this time, it was a real pity. Yes, his life was also very difficult especially now.
Sure enough, as Su Su said, the red signal bombs in the air after the explosion, that huge warships immediately withdraw into the fog and the warships next it soon disappeared one by one in the fog also.
A moment ago the war was in full swing. Right now the dazzling sea has been restored to calmness. Ma Shu also have some reaction, looked at Su Su and asked, “Are we to pursue them? “
Su Su gently shook her head, ” Hard pressed enemy should not be chased. We should also go back.” Su Su noticed that before and after the attack, Liao Yue marine forces can actually still maintain their formation as they evacuated without dragging its feet. She now have an insight about Liao Yue’s marine forces, it was powerful. If not for Liao Yue’s withdrawal, they would still be fighting at the sea.
Their ship slowly landed back to the shore. Su Su was also relieved and her heart was worried about that person. Su Su chuckling, “Uncle Ao, I will leave the rest of the things behind to you.”
Her little hidden thought, Ao Tian naturally knew, waved his hand, replied, “You can go.”
Su Su turned around, ready to jump off the bow but the watchman standing on the look- out platform gazing at the distance suddenly exclaimed in alarm, “Wait! Look, what is that?”
Su Su turned back. She only saw a white mist, nothing special actually. Then she kept staring at it and what seemed to be slowly breaking out from the white fog, it is … …a ship? Su Su’s heart leaps as she rushed to the bow to observe closer. Indeed there were three ships moving towards them. The hulls of the ship were gigantic and the sails above were white like snow with the huge word “MO” hanging at the upper right corner.
These were… … Mo ships? If it were not for flying flag on the snow white background and the word “MO”, she really cannot believe what she was seeing with her eyes. Su Su felt funny inside. Mo Yuan has always been low-key. Thinking of Mohist people, honestly they were really out of the ordinary. These full- bodied white ships looked more than the pagoda against the Ju Ling Island’s black ship, which now looked garish in comparison.
Everyone stared at the three ships, their hearts has not settled yet after the fighting that just happened moments ago making their hearts remained very vigilant. Su Su said, “These are the Mo warships, as I can tell.”
The white ships gradually drifted nearer. It's plain white body have neatly arranged forts with white smoke still coming out of it, showing the intensity of shelling that happened just moments ago.
The three ships docked slowly. Su Su glanced at Ao Tian. He slightly raised his eyebrows while Su Su put on a welcoming smile. The two exchanged silent glances, then together got off from the ship, turned towards the white ships in which several men disembarked.
These people were all men about forty something years old with faces were devoid of expression. There were led by a man in his early 40’s with black gown. They looked at Su Su and Ao Tian, then he turned around in circle as if searching, eyes full of coldness.
Su Su wanted to laugh so hard. No introduction needed. One will immediately know that this group of people must be Mohist people with that look of indifference and coldness just how Mo Yuan was really like.
“Where is the Shǎo Master?” (Shǎo meaning lesser, as a prince to a king)
Shǎo Master? Su Su brows slightly twist after realizing something. Li Yang called him ‘the master’ and then these people were the elders of Mo family? Su Su replied with smile, ” Shǎo Master is naturally resting on the island. He is a distinguished guest, how can we put him in dangerous situation?
"Where is Li Yang ?” The man seemed to be impatient.
Su Su slightly frowned, but still replied, “Li Yang has never left Shǎo Master Mo all along, where Shǎo Master Mo is, there he will be.”
“Take me to Shǎo Master.”
Streaming across Su Su ‘s eyes was a streak of light beam. She laughed, “I let you take a little rest for a while and I will tell Shǎo Master Mo to come to you.”
The man looked at Su Su, the tone was the same which was very cold, "You don’t have to. Why don’t you just tell me where the Shǎo Master Mo is?”
Su Su smiled. Now, she could feel that these people were exactly like Mo Yuan ! This was really ridiculous. Su Su’s hands started playing her purple scales fan, facing the man’s cold line of sight, looking at him directly before she broke into a chuckle, “This is not Mohist, since you came to the Huan Lang Island, you might as well do how things are done here!”
The man who had a dead pan expression all the while had a slight changed in his countenance and finally he could no longer ignore Su Su and coldly asked, “Who the hell are you?”
Su Su gently smiled, "How rude of me I forgot to introduce myself. I am Su Su.”
Hearing her last name, that person frowned, “Su’s?”
“Su , it is. ” This time Su Su did not look at his expression. She turned to the person behind her and said,” Ma Shu, give greetings to our guests. “
Ma Shu was in the Huan Lang Island all his life. He had seen a lot of people visiting the island and some of them are disorderly and quarrelsome. He hurried himself to the front and led the way.” Guests please. “
The man looked and saw Ao Tian beside Su Su standing. Finally, they did not say anything more and went to follow Ma Shu.
When the few people already left, Ao Tian laughed, “How come they suddenly flare in anger?
“Better watch out because they are unpleasant and could turn objectionable and unpleasant!”
They bullied Uncle Mo Bai before and then later Ah Nuan also. She was a family but was disregarded and not even cared for. She has been quite critical of the Mohist from the very start. The man also does not dare to look straight at her in the eye. She focused her attention to him but his eyes kept moving left to right. They might be indifferent in terms of political things and material pursuits but then treat and look at her with coldness for crying out loud! This is simply outrageous. Is Mo that amazingly great?! Well, who cares because she was not simply absorbing such treatment and endure.
