Lightning flashed as torrential rain poured down.
The storm at sea was terrifying. The curtain of rain seemed to merge heaven and earth into one, while bean-sized drops came crashing down, making it hard to keep one's eyes open.
Su Xiao stood at the prow of the Doom, looking through the curtain of rain at the enemy below on the sea. The enemy came from Holy Spirit Paradise and was named Glutton.
