Chapter 1462: Chapter 553: Storming the Island (Part 2)
But no one expected that the ship that arrived would be this one.
Where is Su Mo?
Where is the big ship?
Where is the expert?
While still in shock, they saw the person rowing on the ship take out a Token from his chest and shout loudly:
"I am Jiang Lan, Deputy Hall Master of Dark Dragon Hall!
"Hurry... give me a hand!!"
The Dark Dragon Hall disciples only then realized that his ship was already half submerged and would be completely flooded if they waited any longer.
In a daze, someone promptly tossed a rope with a hook at the end.
With a click, the hook latched onto the side of the boat.
Then they pulled hard, both groups exerting effort, and Jiang Lan’s small boat sped towards the shore.
The boat then fiercely crashed into the edge of the rocks.
Jiang Lan let out a scream, thinking for sure he would get a bloody head.
Instinctively using Qinggong, he never expected to actually leap up into the air.
He paused briefly, surprised:
"Is this truly a divine calculation?"
He stepped through the air and landed on a large rock.
Turning back to look at the sea, there was nothing but the shattered planks of his own small boat.
"This... Deputy Hall Master?"
The Dark Dragon Hall disciples on both sides were somewhat hesitant.
Who dares to call themselves the Deputy Hall Master?
Jiang Lan extended his hand and casually tossed a Token; the two disciples carefully examined it and immediately nodded repeatedly:
"It truly is the Deputy Hall Master!"
Then the next thing they said was:
"Take him down!!"
Jiang Lan was furious:
"You dare to lay hands on me?"
His words had not yet faded when he heard a series of sounds, and the hidden Dark Dragon Hall disciples suddenly appeared.
In just a moment, dozens of people surrounded Jiang Lan completely.
Then, one of them spoke loudly:
"The Hall Master has ordered that Deputy Hall Master Jiang Lan, who betrayed from within and colluded with external enemies, is to be killed without question by any Dark Dragon Hall disciple upon sight!!"
"...Bullshit!"
Jiang Lan shouted angrily:
"After killing him, what’s there to ask? Who is in charge on this island? Bring them to see me!!"
"I’m afraid that’s impossible."
The person who spoke earlier smiled again:
"You are now a criminal and not qualified to see our Master.
"However, the Hall Master did say... that if you admit your mistakes now, kneel and surrender.
"We might spare your life."
"Hahaha!!"
Jiang Lan laughed in anger:
"When the tiger falls to the plain, you dogs dare to bully it; it is already a capital offense.
"If you don’t retreat, don’t blame me for being ruthless!"
With these words, there was no turning back.
A few Dark Dragon Hall disciples exchanged glances and immediately leaped up, thrusting their palms down in the air, aiming at Jiang Lan’s shoulders.
Jiang Lan took a deep breath and pulled out the copper tobacco pipe from his chest.
With a casual flick, there was a buzzing sound.
Two heads soared into the sky.
The next moment, Jiang Lan shifted his steps, the copper tobacco pipe in his hand shaking open, pointing, stabbing, chopping, and sweeping.
With a casual flick of the finger, none of these surrounding Dark Dragon Hall disciples were able to withstand a single move.
In just a moment, they were lying scattered all over the ground.
But at this moment, another sound of ripping clothes in the wind arose.
Jiang Lan looked up, realizing that this would lead to endless trouble.
Even though his martial arts were strong and his Inner Strength was deep, he would eventually exhaust his energy.
Continued fighting like this would trap him to death sooner or later.
Su Mo forced him to get on the island; now trapped in this impasse, he was not desperate.
He still had strategies to think of.
But he could not stay by the shore waiting for death.
Thinking of this, he stepped forward and shouted angrily:
"Get out of the way!"
His figure flew like the wind, sweeping away the nearby Dark Dragon Hall disciples, their limbs scattering.
The fortunate ones had their heads severed painlessly.
The less fortunate had their bodies cut in half, lying on the ground without dying immediately, their screams piercing the sky.
"He wants to break through!
"Don’t give him a chance!"
"Deputy Hall Master Jiang Lan has betrayed Dark Dragon Hall and deserves to die!!"
"The Hall Master said to take him alive for a public trial in the hall!!"
"When did the Hall Master say that?"
"The Hall Master indeed said that!"
"Let’s take him down first!!"
Amid the noisy commotion, Jiang Lan led this group and directly charged onto the island.
Not long after they left, a figure emerged from the water.
After slightly stretching his muscles and circulating his Inner Strength, the layers of white gas rose, drying his clothing.
Then he heard an exclamation:
"Who are you?"
Turning around, he saw an uninjured Dark Dragon Hall disciple with a shocked expression.
The person smiled slightly:
"I am Su Mo, here for the fame."
"Su... Su Mo!?"
The Dark Dragon Hall disciple’s eyes suddenly widened in shock.
He wanted to speak further, but Su Mo snapped his fingers.
The disciple groaned and fell silent completely.
Su Mo exhaled softly and looked up at the island.
This area was still deserted.
Ahead lay a stretch of forest.
The sparse forest was clearly artificially planted for wind protection.
Beyond this windbreak was open ground.
Peering over, he vaguely saw a building nestled against the mountains, with dense hills behind.
"That must be Cui Xin Temple, right?"
Su Mo’s lips curled into a slight smile, then he glanced at the Dark Dragon Hall disciples.
He pulled a set of clothes from one of them and put it on.
