"Admiral Miao, it's not advisable to stay here for a long time. I'm afraid this ship won't last long. Let's go back to the navy warship first."
Miao Tianqi came back to his senses and nodded quickly.
"Yes, yes, let's get out of here first."
The group of people quickly returned to the navy ship. As soon as they untied the rope, they saw the five-masted ship slowly sinking into the lake, leaving only a piece of floating wood chips and smoke.
Miao Tianqi looked at the silent five-masted ship in front of him. Although he felt sorry in his heart, he also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Pang Wanchun is dead, and the main force of Canal Transport Gang's waterway has been wiped out. Now Canal Transport Gang only has the headquarters of Lakeheart Island, and the Canal Transport Gang leader 'Flying Swordsman' Pang Feilong. At this time, there should not be many talents left in the Canal Transport Gang headquarters."
Miao Tianqi looked relaxed.
"As long as Lakeheart Island is captured and Pang Feilong is captured, this matter will be settled."
Miao Tianqi immediately ordered the naval warship to dock at the Lakeheart Island shore, leaving some soldiers to guard the warship and the prisoners.
He took dozens of soldiers and landed on the island with Su Fei.
The trees on the island are dense, and the night wind blows through the leaves, making a rustling sound. Occasionally, you can hear a few panicked shouts from a distance. It is obvious that the remaining members of the Canal Transport Gang gang have noticed the movement.
The group of people had not gone far when they encountered two teams of Canal Transport Gang warriors patrolling the island. Each team had more than ten people, and the leader was only Xiantian Realm martial artist.
When those Canal Transport Gang warriors saw the navy officers and soldiers approaching, they were about to draw their swords to resist. Miao Tianqi Several Deputy General behind them rushed forward first.
They were already eager to make contributions, but now that their opponent was just Mortal Transformation Realm, they were not willing to let go of the opportunity.
"Look at me."
A Bearded Man Deputy General shouted loudly, and slashed out the long knife in his hand. The sharp wind of the knife instantly forced a Canal Transport Gang little boss to retreat continuously.
Several other Deputy Generals also took action one after another. In the flash of swords and shadows, in just half a stick of incense, the two teams of Canal Transport Gang warriors were completely killed or injured.
Only a few helpers were left who were so frightened that their legs were weak. They fell to their knees and begged for mercy.
"Sir, please forgive me, we are just ordinary members of the gang, we did not participate in the robbery of tax money!"
Miao Tianqi waved his hand and asked the personal guards to tie up the surrendered gang members and take them to the shore for custody, and then led the people deeper into the area.
Along the way, we encountered several waves of defeated Canal Transport Gang disciples, who were either easily dealt with by the Deputy Generals, or simply surrendered and became prisoners. The journey went very smoothly.
About half an hour later, the sound of rushing water came from ahead, and a waterfall about dozens of feet wide appeared in front of us.
The waterfall cascades down from a hundred-foot-high cliff into the deep pool below, filling the air with mist.
On the circular platform in front of the waterfall, a tall man in a purple robe stood with his hands behind his back. Although his face was in his fifties, he had a tall and straight posture and exuded a calm and fierce aura. This man was the leader of the Canal Transport Gang "Flying Swordsman" Pang Feilong.
Miao Tianqi As soon as he saw him, he immediately took a step forward and shouted sharply.
"Pang Feilong, you colluded with the county governor Ren Daowei, robbed the imperial court of five million taels of silver, and even attempted to resist the imperial navy. Now that the fleet of Canal Transport Gang is completely destroyed, you are at the end of your rope. I advise you to surrender without mercy."
Pang Feilong slowly turned around and glanced at Miao Tianqi.
There was no trace of panic on his face, instead there was a hint of sarcasm.
"I managed to break in here. It seems that my cousin Wanchun has died in your hands."
He paused, and his voice suddenly became deeper, with a bit of vicissitudes and hatred.
"In that case, let me tell you a story. More than fifty years ago, our Pang Lineage was just a small Lineage in Lin'an City. My father was a merchant. One day he bought a jade pendant at a low price. The jade pendant was of excellent quality and was worth a lot of money."
"But who would have thought that the Lin'an City county captain at that time knew about this. He came to the door with his men and insisted on buying it for ten taels of silver. My father refused, so he held a grudge."
"That night, he led a group of black-clothed and masked men into our home. Not only did he steal the jade pendant, but he also killed more than a dozen of our Pang Lineage family."
"Wanchun and I were only seven or eight years old at the time. We hid in the dog hole in the yard and watched him stab my father in the chest with a knife, and watched my mother being insulted and killed by his men. I will never forget his proud smile after killing."
Having said this, Pang Feilong's eyes flashed with scarlet red, and the aura around him suddenly became violent.
"From that day on, I hated everyone in the imperial court. Wanchun and I begged all the way to Guangling Commandery and joined Canal Transport Gang. We started from the lowest level of the gang and endured countless hardships before we climbed step by step to where we are today and have the power to compete with the imperial court."
"That five million taels of tax silver was robbed by Pang and Guangling Commandery, who were guarding Ren Daowei, and led Canal Transport Gang. I originally wanted to use this money to recruit troops and unite the demonic forces in the world. When the time is right, I would raise an army to rebel against Great Xuan, and kill all the imperial lords in the world who are just a prey to the common people."
"It's a pity that you still discovered me."
"Failed in vain."
He smiled self-deprecatingly, his eyes fell on Miao Tianqi, his tone was somewhat inexplicable.
"You must be Navy Admiral Miao Tianqi. You seem to be quite capable of destroying my fleet Canal Transport Gang so quickly. However, I wonder if your skills are as good as your ability to lead troops. Do you dare to compete with me?"
Miao Tianqi's cheeks were slightly red. He knew in his heart that the successful destruction of Canal Transport Gang's fleet was all due to Su Fei's ability to neutralize Canal Transport Gang's clippers, and he also saved himself.
And he, Miao Tianqi, was just sitting back and reaping the rewards without putting in much effort at all.
Now that he was so excited by Pang Feilong, he was suddenly speechless and subconsciously looked at Su Fei beside him.
Su Fei noticed Miao Tianqi's embarrassment, took a step forward, and looked at Pang Feilong.
"Gang Leader Pang, there may be reasons for your hatred, but it is an ironclad fact that you robbed the tax collectors and attempted to rebel. There may be scum in the Great Xuan Dynasty court, but you should not regard everyone in the court as enemies, let alone kill those Palace Guard."
"Now that you have become a traitor and are at the end of your rope, I advise you to just go ahead and capture him."
Miao Tianqi became confident when he heard Su Fei speak, and he echoed.
"That's right. Pang Feilong Don't think that I, Miao Tianqi, am afraid of you. Come and fight for me."
Then Miao Tianqi suddenly took a step forward, and True Essence exploded all over his body.
Grandmaster Realm Fifth Layer's momentum burst out, and the surrounding air seemed to be frozen. He raised his palms, and a layer of light white frost condensed on his palms, which was his famous martial arts Frost Palm.
"Pang Feilong, don't be arrogant, today I will show you what I, Miao Tianqi, can do."
Before he finished speaking, Miao Tianqi's body swayed, and his palms were slapping towards Pang Feilong with a biting cold air.
The wind from the palm roared, and wherever it passed, even the water mist in the air condensed into tiny ice particles, reaching Pang Feilong's chest.
Pang Feilong The long sword at the waist was unsheathed, and the silver-white sword light instantly cut through the night sky, rushing towards him like a shooting star chasing the moon.
