From Beast Abilities to Sect Grand Master

Chapter 237 Water Monkey

Xiao Tao's father, old Meng, was waiting for them at the port.

His right hand was in bandages, and he walked with a limp due to the injuries he sustained on his knees.

"Father! We had a sumptuous breakfast, and I've brought some of it for you. Here."

Xiao Tao ran over and passed the breakfast from the inn to her father.

Old Meng opened one of the wooden containers and saw what was inside.

Buns, dumplings, meat and noodles.

It was a feast compared to what he was used to.

Old Meng quickly came up to Lin Fan, Ho Ming and Hun Yen Kun.

He clasped his hands and bowed to them.

"Thank you so much for your generosity.

"I'm old Meng. I wanted to bring you around on the boat myself, but Xiao Tao wouldn't let me.

"She's still worried about my injuries, so she will have to go in my place.

"But rest assured that she knows the seas around this region. She has helped me out since she was young," Old Meng said.

Lin Fan nodded and said, "We understand, but we will pay according to her performance."

"Don't worry. I will do my best. Come aboard," Xiao Tao said as she hopped onto the boat that was nearby.

It was a small boat, around five meters long, and could only fit the four of them.

Xiao Tao set the sail up quickly, and they started to move out of the port.

...

Hun Yen Kun stood at the front of the boat with his fan in his hand.

He looked up into the blue sky and said, "The tide calls out, the wind is high,

"Men take their boats where sea meets sky.

"With oars in hand and hearts so bold,

"Chasing silver fish and tales untold."

Blah.

When he finished reciting his poem, Ho Ming went to the side of the boat and vomited.

Hun Yen Kun looked at Ho Ming, shrugged and asked, "It can't be that bad, right?"

Lin Fan rolled his eyes and said, "He's just seasick, I guess. But both can be true at the same time."

"We are near the rocky caves; they're just ahead," Xiao Tao interjected into their banter and pointed ahead.

Walking over to the front of the boat, Lin Fan squinted his eyes and tried to look at the rocky caves.

But it was still some distance away, and all he could see were some rocks.

Barely visible to the naked eye.

Long moustache came over to the side of the boat and asked, "Did you scare them off?"

"Yeah. I did. I'm bleeding to death; get me up onto the boat!" The man's face was pale white as he tried to stay afloat.

Other men quickly came forward and pulled the man up.

They were shocked when they saw the man's back split open.

"What should we do now?"

They panicked and asked long moustache.

Long moustache frowned and said, "Bandage him and stop the bleeding first."

He'd only wanted to scare Lin Fan and the rest with someone pretending to be the Water Monkey.

He hadn't expected those scholarly-looking cultivators to be so strong.

But there was no way back for him now.

Splash.

Long moustache heard a loud splashing sound by the side of the boat.

The other men also heard it and stopped what they were doing.

"You hear that?" one of them said.

Everyone nodded.

Knock.

Knock.

Knock.

The next moment, they heard knocking sounds.

Long moustache gulped a mouthful of saliva and went over to the side of the boat to check.

He bent down and peered into the dark blue water.

"You see anything? Don't be pulling a prank on us. If not, I swear to God," one of the men asked as long moustache was in the same position for some time.

He slowly walked over and bent down to look at what long moustache was doing.

Drip.

All he saw was long moustache's head gone and his blood dripping into the sea.

Before he could cry out, something came out from the sea and lunged at him.

Splatter.

His consciousness went away as his head suffered the same fate as long moustache's.

This got the other men worried as they saw them motionless by the side of the boat.

They decided to check on them and walked towards them together.

Boom.
