Chapter 370: 370
The water kept bubbling up as if it was boiling and the ship continued to sink .
“The boatmen should go first,” Mu Yi said calmly .
The boatmen who were loyal to Zhu Phoenix Tower . They couldn’t help anymore, so the only way to protect them was to get them to leave .
“Yes, my lord . ” Yun Mengxuan arranged it immediately, but she didn’t agree with Mu Yi .
Most of the boat was submerged after the boatmen left .
“Come out,” Mu Yi sneered .
The ship trembled and the water rippled around it as if a big hand was moving beneath the water’s surface .
“Whoop, whoop!”
Three masked figures in black came out of the water . Each of them held a long and narrow machete .
The three men tried to attack Mu Yi at the same time .
Yun Mengxuan moved forward to block them . Red silk flew out of her right sleeve . and became a red-tasseled spear as she turned it gently .
Yun Mengxuan struck them three times in an instant . She had opened five chakras and was at the top of the second difficulty . The next chakras were going to open, so she could easily beat the three first-class experts easily .
These three men were at most second grade of the first class . What’s more, they just got out of the water and had no rest . They were bound to lose .
The three men flew back into the lake and disappeared .
Yun Mengxuan frowned and wanted to follow but was stopped by Mu Yi . It was dangerous because they didn’t know what was happening under the water . The three men were pawns .
The boatmen who had escaped screamed soon after . They struggled for several moments before sinking into the water as blood bubbled up .
“Holy shit!”
Yun Mengxuan felt ashamed because the three men invaded her territory . Now she was even angrier because the boatmen had been killed .
Mu Yi didn’t stop her and felt a little angry, too . He had sent them away to protect them not have them killed .
Yun Mengxuan flew like a swallow to the lifeboat . She swung the red silk to arouse numerous waves . Then, a black shadow came out from the waves to attack Yun Mengxuan .
Yun Mengxuan swung again with a water arrow and hit the man in his chest .
The man fell into the water . At the same time, the other two appeared behind Yun Mengxuan . They fought with their long machetes, swinging as if they planned to cut Yun Mengxuan into three parts .
Yun Mengxuan didn’t feel scared and was going to fly to avoid their strikes, but there were two hands under the water grasping Yun Mengxuan firmly .

It was too late for her to get the hands off and jumped again .
As Mu Yi was going to rescue her, a man came out and rushed towards him .
The people gathered to kill Yun Mengxuan . It seemed killing Yun Mengxuan was more important than Mu Yi .
“How dare you!”
Mu Yi’s voice was like the thunder, ringing along through the sky and into the earth . The figure who came to Mu Yi was stopped by the voice . The water rolled back and exposed him .
The two men who were attacking Yun Mengxuan were slowed by the voice .
Yun Mengxuan was the only one who was not affected . When Mu Yi opened his mouth, a life-like flame rose on her eyebrow . A stronger breath burst out .
Yun Mengxuan activated the seal of the Rosefinch to improve her strength as if she had opened the next chakras . With this strength, she got rid of the hands and disappeared quickly .
The two long machetes behind her could only cut through her shadow, as the figure under the water came out .
Mu Yi recognized the figure as a woman because only women could join South Phoenix Tower’s core and knew about the seal of the Rosefinch . The traitor, whatever her reason, was here now .
Yun Mengxuan was out of danger so Mu Yi could look at the shadow in front of him intently . The people were dressed the same as the three men from before, but he was stronger than the three . In Mu Yi’s eyes, the man was in the seventh grade of the first class . That’s why the traitor dared to attack him .

However, the breath of the man was very strange . He heard the long narrow machete in his hand .
“Japanese ninja?” Mu Yi guessed .
They covered their heads, but their hair could be seen beneath it . In the Qing Dynasty, all people were meant to cut their hair except the Taoists .
If they were Japanese, they didn’t have to follow the rules because they were winners in the fight a few years ago and had won territory and reparations from the ministers of the Qing Dynasty .
In fact, everyone in the world knew that the Empress Dowager in the Forbidden City, as well as the ministers, were frightened by foreigners . When the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded China, all the people found out that the Qing government was rotten and vulnerable .
Knowing his identity, Mu Yi was more eager to kill him . The man belonged to the top of the second difficulty, but Mu Yi didn’t care as he had already killed someone at that level .
A light chakra came to Mu Yi’s mind, the Life Theurgy . Then he punched the ninja .
The ninja changed his expression and held the machete in both hands to cut through the force .
“Boom!”
The ninja flew away and his long machete was split .
As the ninja retreated, he threw several shadows at Mu Yi .
Mu Yi summoned the Xin lamp . The shadows exploded with black poison and were devoured by the Nanming Li Fire . The fire continued towards the ninja .

The ninja pulled down his mask, bit his tongue and spat out lots of blood as the fire approached him .
Strangely, the blood turned into a mist and did not dissipate . Instead, it twisted into a standing red figure with a wolf head and a pair of wings .
The monster appeared and roared like a wolf . Then, the wings behind him flapped to disperse the fire .
Mu Yi was amused since the Nanming Li Fire was not ordinary fire . It was closer to sky fire . If it could be dispelled easily, the Envoy of the White Tiger’s Flag wouldn’t have lost to him .
The Nanming Li Fire devoured the surprised monster . After a scream, it turned into ashes .
However, as soon as he landed on the lake, the ninja ran . Obviously, he knew that he would die if he kept fighting .
“Stay,” Mu Yi said softly . The ninja heard him clearly . Mu Yi walked for seven steps before his figure was distorted . Then, he appeared behind the ninja instantly .
The ninja went wild again and tried to turn around, but failed as Mu Yi’s fist fell on his back .
“Bang!”
The ninja was smashed into the water like a broken sack .
Mu Yi felt the aura of the ninja disappearing gradually .
On the surface of the water, blood drifted up . After a while, the body of the ninja floated up .
At this time, Mu Yi looked to the other side, where there was an unfinished battle .
