Chapter 51 Spirit Boat
"Sister, I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."
After walking out of the cave, Lu Xuan quickly came to Ling Xiao, made an apologetic expression, scratched his head and said.
"It's okay, Junior Brother Lu, you don't have to feel guilty. It's just that you waited a little longer. It's nothing."
Ling Xiao looked at Lu Xuan with a smile, without any trace of anger on his face.
“Thank you for your understanding, Senior Sister. Ningyan and Master both had to give me some instructions, so it took some time.
Let’s go now.”
As he spoke, Lu Xuan took out the spirit boat in his hand, threw it on the ground, and infused it with magic power.
The boat, which was originally only the size of a palm, quickly grew larger and expanded to the size of a normal ship.
Judging from the outside, it can accommodate at least a dozen people.
"Is this Master Fanfeng's spiritual boat? It looks really impressive, and there seem to be many formations engraved on the boat."
Seeing this, Ling Xiao narrowed his eyes and an inexplicable look appeared on his face.
Such powerful flying boats are often equipped with various formations, most of which are used for protection, and a small number are used to defend against enemies.
Others are used for surveillance.
Considering the warning that Master Fan Feng had given her before, and her overly protective desire for Junior Brother Lu, she had ample reason to be suspicious.
This spirit boat was equipped with a formation to monitor the two people's every move to prevent her from taking any actions that overstepped the line.
"Tsk tsk, this flying boat is really magnificent. Not only is it a top-grade spiritual weapon, but Master also spent a lot of effort in setting up the formation.
This makes it even more valuable, and it is probably worth half of a top-grade spiritual weapon."
Lu Xuan looked at the luxurious spirit boat in front of him with great excitement, and he couldn't suppress the smile on his face. It was the first time for him to control a flying boat for a long journey.
"Sister, there is no time to lose. Let's set off before the sun sets."
After boarding the spirit boat, Lu Xuan looked back at Ling Xiao who was still standing on the ground, and said excitedly.
"Well, it's better to identify the direction earlier. Otherwise, when it gets dark, I will be distracted by controlling the compass to guide the direction."
Ling Xiao nodded and was about to follow Lu Xuan, but before boarding the spirit boat, she suddenly stopped.
"By the way, Junior Brother, didn't Ningyan come out to see you off? She knew I was going to go with you and spend a few days and nights alone.
She didn’t react at all?”
Ling Xiao raised her eyebrows and asked Lu Xuan with some evil interest. She really wanted to know what Xia Ningyan, the woman, would think after learning the news.
Will that face, which has always been cold and without any emotion, become distorted and full of resentment and hatred?
"Uh, Senior Sister, I didn't tell Ningyan about our trip. I only told her that we were going out to kill a little demon in the Demon Spirit Realm."
After hesitating for a while, Lu Xuan told the truth. He had to ask Ling Xiao to help keep it a secret, otherwise it would be exposed later.
".Oh, no wonder, if she knew you were traveling with me and spending a few days and nights alone, how could she let you go so easily?"
Hearing this, Ling Xiao was a little disappointed, and his eyes, which had originally been bright, dimmed.
"Senior Sister, please don't let Ningyan know about this. If she knew, she would definitely be angry."
"Don't worry, Junior Brother. I won't do anything to embarrass you. Since you don't want me to tell you, then I won't tell you."
Seeing Lu Xuan's worried look, Ling Xiao smiled slightly and told him considerately that he didn't need to worry.
However, a hint of darkness flashed in the depths of her eyes.
Of course I wouldn't tell it, because if I did that, I would have one more handle to restrain my junior brother, which might play a very crucial role at the critical moment.
"Thank you, senior sister." Lu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief. Now he didn't have to worry about being exposed.
Little did he know that his request for confidentiality had been used by Ling Xiao to blackmail him in the future.
"Sister, please sit down. We are about to start the spiritual boat. The acceleration at the start will be a little uncomfortable, but it will be fine once the speed stabilizes."
As he spoke, Lu Xuan took out the control seal of the spirit boat, a burst of light lit up, and the entire flying boat then slowly rose into the air according to his thoughts.
After passing through the clouds and reaching a height of one thousand meters above the ground, Lu Xuan walked to the front of the spirit boat, stared at the sea of clouds below, squinting his eyes in enjoyment.
Then he activated the seal in his hand, activating the formations engraved on various parts of the boat. The spirit beads buried in the cabin also began to provide energy, allowing the boat to speed up rapidly.
hum!
Accompanied by a rumbling sound, a huge thrust came, and Lu Xuan swayed and almost fell.
He had to use his magical powers to barely keep his body steady and avoid falling to the ground.
On the other hand, Ling Xiao just held his sword, leaning quietly against the wall on the side of the boat, as steady as a mountain, not wavering at all.
"Huh~, I almost fell down. I asked you to be careful, but I ended up making a fool of myself."
After the spirit boat finished accelerating, Lu Xuan turned to look at Ling Xiao and smiled awkwardly.
“Junior brother, this is your first time to steer a spirit boat, and being able to do this is already pretty good, there’s nothing to be ashamed of.
At the beginning, Senior Sister was not as good as you."
Ling Xiao still encouraged Lu Xuan with a smile, without a trace of impatience in his expression.
"Sister, please stop comforting me."
Lu Xuan also knew what Ling Xiao was thinking about him. He raised his hand and coughed twice, then continued to control the spirit boat.
Open a layer of defense formation and cover the boat with a solid golden film to prevent it from being hit by any unknown objects during the journey.
At the same time, the exhaust holes under the hull also produce invisible vortices, sucking in the surrounding spiritual energy to replace the reserve spirit beads and provide part of the power.
"Junior brother, let's take turns driving this spiritual boat. You can control it for two or three days in a row and reach the destination directly.
I’m afraid it will take a lot of effort.”
Ling Xiao walked up to Lu Xuan, put a hand on his shoulder, and spoke softly.
"It's okay, Senior Sister. I'm very excited now! I will never get tired of looking at this beautiful scenery. I will come and trouble you when I am really tired."
At this time, the sun was setting, and Lu Xuan looked at the sea of clouds below that was dyed golden red, and felt extremely comfortable.
It's so fun to drive this spirit boat. There are basically no obstacles at such a high altitude. You can speed and change direction at will.
There are also beautiful views to enjoy, the only pity is that the speed is too fast and the wind is too strong, so a protective formation needs to be activated to block it.
There is no way to experience that feeling of speeding.
"Well, Junior Brother, you must remember to tell me when you are tired, otherwise this will continue for several days.
After being overexcited, you will experience unprecedented fatigue, so please take care of your body."
"I understand, Senior Sister. Just go back and sit back. I'll drive now!"
Hearing Lu Xuan's excited voice, Ling Xiao didn't say anything more, but turned and stepped back with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
She had already reminded him, and if his junior brother didn't listen, then that was his own business.
This is perfect. Once we get there, many things will become easy to handle with my groggy junior brother by my side.
