Chapter 741: Suspicion with the Hissing Moon Island
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Meanwhile, in a secret area of the Endless Eastern Sea, Island Master of the Hissing Moon who was in solitary training shot a glance at his communication jade plate. A cold sneer overflowed from the corner of his mouth. “Darn it, how many days has it been since the two Coiled Dragon orders were sent? Who does that naive girl think she is? Humph, I will just pretend that I’ve received nothing!”
After he said this, he shut off the communication jade plate and brushed it aside.
…
Qin Wushuang stood with his hands behind his back and tried to not expose his emotions. Although he was incredibly nervous, it was inappropriate for him to show it excessively.
Su Mi had changed from the amiable manner she had had with Qin Wushuang and his people as she now looked more serious. With a cold and stern tone, she said, “You four, a group of my brother’s uncle’s friends went missing in the nearby territorial water of the Endless Eastern Sea. Is it true that each of your houses do not hold any news, or are you working half-heartedly and feel my words are not powerful enough?”
How could those four leaders dare to act like pretentious pricks before Su Mi. They immediately pointed to the sky and vowed, “Miss Su Mi, do you think we would not be truthful or use our best efforts for you? We have not received any information and we would not dare to speak nonsense before you.”
“Do not fool me, everyone knows that each of your sects have your own intelligence systems. You would know first hand if the wind was swaying the grass.”
Those four leaders cried out in grievance. “Miss Su Mi, this time, we truly have not received any information, or else, how could we dare to play tricks before you?”
With her charming face, Su Mi revealed an ashen face as she looked at these four guys coldly.
“It seems I cannot get anything out of your mouth. People have gone missing around this area. Very good, I don’t need to use the Coiled Dragon order to oppress you! Listen well you four, whoever receives any exact information, you will have the chance to receive a strong weapon beneath the Supreme Dao weapons!”
As soon as those four leaders heard these words, their hearts thumped all of a sudden.
Within a thousand mile radius, these leaders could be considered the most prestigious figures among the area. Yet across the entire Falling Treasure Gulf, they were only second or third tier warriors.
They only possessed strength to be at the Perfect Void Martial Stage. To them, it would definitely be a great attraction to receive a weapon beneath the Supreme Dao.
One could not blame them when their eyes shone.
“The two leaders of the Hissing Moon Island and the Scarlet Bright Cave Dwelling did not come, so they are of great suspicion. Go investigate. Since I spoke the word, certainly I will honor my commitment. Remember, only the first one who sends the most useful information will be qualified to get the weapon. The others will have their efforts in vain.”
“Yes, Miss Su Mi, we will go now to investigate, please rest assured. If they went missing around this area, regardless of what has happened, we will get some clues.”
Those four leaders declared their position after making the solemn vow. Then, they turned to leave.
Su Mi said with a cold sneer, “These guys would not let out the hawk if they don’t see the rabbit. If I had not been considering our reputation, I should have told them that they would be killed if they came back with no news. I trust it would have increased their efficiency.”
It was inappropriate for Qin Wushuang to make decisions without permission. Everything could only go according with Su Mi’s ways.
After having waited for half a day patiently, the Island Master of the Hundred War Island was the first one to send back information. “Miss Su Mi, per the information, the Hissing Moon Island Master has already been out for more than half a year. He has not returned so far. The Cave Master of the Scarlet Bright Cave Dwelling has also been in solitary training within the cave dwelling for about three months.”
“What is the use of this rubbish information?” Su Mi asked bluntly.
“Ha ha, since the Hissing Moon Island Master is not present, I plan to see for myself. Those guys of the Hissing Moon Island are always undisciplined and out of control, perhaps I can get some useful information from them?”
“Alright, make it quick.”
Su Mi frowned for this Hissing Moon Island could be said as a fastidious figure of the Falling Treasure Gulf. It was because this Hissing Moon Island was located at the border of the Falling Treasure Gulf territory and belonged to a controversial area.
On one hand, the Hissing Moon Island belonged to the Falling Treasure Gulf. On the other hand, the Hissing Moon Island was also making contact with the Green Universe Gulf. That Green Universe Gulf was territory to the Horn Dragon Clan.
They were never in good relationship with the Falling Treasure Gulf Coiled Dragon Clan. Therefore, to the Falling Treasure Gulf, this Hissing Moon Island was always a fastidious figure.
If she was not considering the problem with reputation, per the personality of the Coiled Dragon Clan, they would have stomped the Hissing Moon Island flat. It’s just that they never had the proper excuse or evidence.
Su Mi mumbled to herself coldly, “Hissing Moon Island, hopefully it’s not related to you…”
Qin Wushuang volunteered, “Sister-in-law, I want to make a trip to that Hissing Moon Island.”
Su Mi said while feeling embarrassed, “Brother Wushuang, if you go to that Hissing Moon Island now and they received news ahead of time, they could make counter plans against you. That would not be good.”
“With the Coiled Dragon order sent, they have already learned about your position. Brother, I will go with you,” Shang Ye said.
At this moment, news came again from that Hundred War Island Master. “Miss Su Mi, according to my investigation, this matter is most likely related to the Hissing Moon Island!”
“Oh? Why do you say that?” A joyous expression was exhibited in between Su Mi’s brows.
“I just captured a low subordinate of the Hissing Moon Island and interrogated him. During the time when the Hissing Moon Island Master was absent, a guy named Ke Da has been incredibly active and is hunting everywhere at the Endless Eastern Sea. It seems that a while ago, he attacked a boat of all human martial artists.”
When Su Mi heard up to this point, she shouted, “Alright, do not beat the grass to scare the snake, we will head over now.”
As the Coiled Dragon flying boat started, the thousand mile journey took only a matter of a few hours. Soon, they arrived at the Hissing Moon Island.
When people of the Hissing Moon Island heard that miss Su Mi had come, everyone had wondered what was happening. A few Island Masters of the island were all extremely cautious as they went out to welcome her.
“We didn’t know that miss Su Mi was coming. We are honored by your presence, excuse us for not going out to meet you, ha ha.”
Su Mi looked at these three deputy Island Masters coldly. “Where is your Island Master?”
“He went out to train and has not come home for almost half a year. Miss Su Mi, why are you looking for my Island Master all of a sudden?”
“Humph humph, the Hissing Moon Island Master is having a big temper. I sent the Coiled Dragon order and there was no news from him at all.”
The Coiled Dragon order of Su Mi only reaches the first leader. Therefore, these deputy Island Masters were at a loss and looked at each other with dismay. They had no idea such thing had been sent.
In terms of strength, indeed the Hissing Moon Island was the strongest existence in the surrounding tens and thousands of miles of territorial water. Compared to the Hissing Moon Island, regardless of the Soul Turtle Island, the Hundred War Island showed clear disparity to them.
Due to this fact, that Hissing Moon Island Master felt that he had the capital to contend with two major dragon clans and wanted to gain the greatest benefits.
“Miss Su Mi, Island Master, perhaps he’s in solitary training and hasn’t received the message.”
“Yes, it must be a misunderstanding. How could the Hissing Moon Island dare to play tricks before Miss Su Mi?”
Su Mi said lightly, “I do not want to speak anymore nonsense. I only want to ask you guys, my brother’s uncle’s family and colleagues went missing when they came to visit the Endless Eastern Sea. For this matter, someone said the Hissing Moon Island is to blame.”
The expression of the three deputy Island Masters changed at the same time… Brother’s uncle’s clansmen? It sounded to be a deep relationship. It was no wonder that miss Su Mi was mustering a large force.
However, they had not seen such people and had now idea what she was talking about.
“Miss Su Mi, could there be some misunderstanding? Now it’s the three of us governing this Hissing Moon Island. We know all movements that happen under our watch. I vow to the sky that we never did such a thing. Miss Su Mi, how many people have gone missing? What do they look like?”
“Yes, I heard that miss Su Mi’s uncle is a human martial artist. No human martial artists have come to our Hissing Moon Island for a very long time.”
“Humph, you do speak pretty words. Is there someone named Ke Da here?” Su Mi asked coldly.
“Yes, there is such a person.”
“Ke Da is the trusted aide of the Island Master.”
“Then this Ke Da, does he do everything under your eyes?” Su Mi kept asking.
“This… Ah, not to hide it from you, Ke Da enjoys the love from the Island Master. We truly cannot monitor the things he does. However, would that kid have such guts to harm your relatives?”
“Don’t be in a hurry to say this matter has no relationship with you, first call that Ke Da to meet us here.”
“Alright, we will send people to call him now.”
“No need to send your people, use your spiritual perception. Also, do not tell him what is it about.”
“Ok, we will listen to you.”
Although these three deputy Island Masters were all domineering figures of the area, they did not dare to act defyingly before Su Mi, despite being at the Perfect Void Martial Stage and on par with Su Mi and Shang Ye.
However, she’s the princess of the Coiled Dragon Clan, how could they neglect her?
When Ke Da received the message, he was unconcerned when he looked at it. “Why are these three old guys looking for me?”
He did not pay attention to it and threw the communication jade plate to the side.
The three deputy Island Masters took turns to summon him and all showed an indefinite gloomy expression. This Ke Da was becoming more arrogant and did not even bother with their spiritual perception call.
“What else is there to stall with?” Su Mi’s cold and stern voice sounded again.
“No no, this Ke Da has been spoiled to some extent during usual times. Although the three of us are deputy Island Master, we cannot make him come.”
“Is that right? For a tiny leader, the three of you deputy Island Masters cannot order him to come together? Such an unbridled guy. Good, since you cannot call to make him move, tell me his location, we will go to him personally.”
The expression of one of the deputy Island Masters changed suddenly. ” How could we trouble miss Su Mi to go personally?”
In fact, they were not worried of miss Su Mi going to look for him and whether it might be impolite. Instead, they were worried that the Hissing Moon Island would be in great trouble if this matter was truly related to Ke Da.
“Lead the way up front, if you stall any longer, I will not hold back,” Su Mi said coldly.
The three deputy Island Masters looked at each other with dismay, yet they could not turn her stubbornness. They could only guide Su Mi to walk towards Ke Da’s residence.
“Boom!”
Su Mi used her dragon whip to tear down the defensive barrier at Ke Da’s home directly. She shouted, “Ke Da, get out here!”
Ke Da had been enjoying his time. Upon getting shouted at by a woman’s voice, he was greatly enraged. “Where did this woman come from? She dares to talk to me like this?”
One of the deputy Assistant Leaders shouted, “Ke Da, do not be impolite, it’s miss Su Mi here!
As soon as Ke Da heard these words, his surge of evil intentions were instantly vanished. He walked out quickly, yet he was willing to walk closer. Instead, he said from a far distance, “Miss Su Mi? I have never interacted with you, now what is the meaning of you coming up to smash down my door so aggressively?”
Without speaking a word, Su Mi used the dragon whip to wrap up Ke Da.
Ke Da gave a cold sneer and with a flash, he evaded the move as if he was a slippery fish. With an indifferent tone, he said, “Miss Su Mi, you have an invaluable and honorable body, it will not look good if an offense is committed.”
