Under the hazy moonlight, the Black Awning Boat drifted with the waves.
Lin Bai and Jiang Xuansu sat aboard the boat, speaking softly heart to heart.
Jiang Xuansu hesitated for a moment. Her pretty face flushed slightly as she asked in a low voice, "So, have you started a family on the Barren Ancient Continent?"
Before she could hear Lin Bai's answer,
Lin Bai suddenly rose and turned to look behind the stern.
Jiang Xuansu asked in confusion, "What is it?"
Lin Bai sneered disdainfully. "There really are some Demon Race fools who aren't afraid of death. They've come here to die."
A fire had been burning in Jiang Xuansu's heart. She had finally managed to ask this question after making so many mental preparations and building up so much courage.

Jiang Xuansu abruptly stood up. Her expression turned solemn, her gaze icy.
Her beautiful eyes stared toward the rear of the boat. If looks could kill, that group of Demon Race members would already have been sliced into a thousand pieces by Jiang Xuansu.
On the calm river behind the stern, waves a hundred zhang high suddenly surged up and crashed toward the Black Awning Boat.
The waves blotted out the sky and covered the earth as they rolled downward, intending to swallow the Black Awning Boat whole.
Yet just as the waves crashed against the Black Awning Boat, a streak of sword light suddenly swept past and cleaved them apart.
Crash... The waves did not fall back down. Instead, they floated in midair.
More than twenty members of the Demon Race rode the waves, looking down from above
