This young man completely assumed an air of superiority. He didn't take Qin Heng and Du Pingshu seriously at all, as though they were insignificant insects to him, and giving them the right to choose their own deaths was already an act of great mercy.

The people around were immediately stunned, looking incredulously at the young man. Their eyes widened as if they had seen a ghost.

Are you kidding me? Where did this guy come from, to actually suggest that Qin Heng and Du Pingshu commit suicide! Who does he think he is? Qin Heng is the heir to the Daqin Group, and Du Pingshu is also of the legitimate line of the Du family! You, dressed in a bizarre fashion, thinking you're so cool, what are you really!? Actually wanting them to commit suicide?? You must be sick of living!!

"Who is this kid? Didn't I hear him call Gao Yao 'brother' just now?"

"Damn! Could it be Gao Yao's brother? He's screwing over his own brother!"

"Gao Yao might have had a slim chance of survival, but now his brother is going to get him killed!!"

The surrounding people all shook their heads. They looked at the young man with disdain, their gazes as if looking at a dead man.

Such a death wish!! To dare be so arrogant in front of Qin Heng and Du Pingshu, he's truly courting death!!

When Qin Heng heard the young man's words, he was slightly stunned and looked over. He realized that the young man had the peak cultivation of the Transcendence Realm, just one step away from stepping into the Innate. Moreover, he had a very close connection with the Water Spirit Energy in the world. This indicated that the cultivation technique he practiced had a strong affinity with Water Spirit Energy. On this ocean, it was his turf.

Even an ordinary Innate Grandmaster might not be his opponent. Not bad in terms of strength.

But in Qin Heng's eyes, even if this young man were a hundred times, no, a thousand times stronger, he wasn't worth mentioning, able to be killed with a slap. The gap was just too large.

Of course, the young man had no awareness of this fact at all.

In my view, Qin Heng is at most a rich young master with a little bit of kung fu. Such material isn't worth mentioning in front of a powerful martial artist. As a martial artist at the peak of the Transcendence Realm, I've already killed so many similar wealthy young masters that I can't even remember the count.

"What, it seems you two don't want to commit suicide!" the young man looked at Qin Heng and Du Pingshu with a scornful gaze and sneered, "Two insects, do you really think you can turn the tables in front of me?"

With the young man's cultivation, it was simply impossible for him to sense Qin Heng's power. He could only assume Qin Heng was an ordinary person. In my eyes, ordinary people are like insects. Weak to the extreme, easy to crush with a simple gesture.

"Boy, do you know who you're speaking to?"

"Didn't you see your brother Gao Yao scared like a dog? Yet you still act so arrogantly!"

"Tsk tsk, truly bringing disaster upon your own brother! Gao Yao is done for! Completely done for."

All the people around were shaking their heads. Their gazes towards the young man were filled with contempt, believing him to be a naive youth unaware of his own limitations.

Du Pingshu was also a bit dazed. Looking at the young man, a mocking smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Young man, this is an adult's world, not something that can be changed just by being childish."

Clearly, Du Pingshu took this abruptly appearing young man for a naïve youth.

"Gao Yue! What are you doing out here, and still dressed like that?" Gao Yao's frown deepened and he said, "This has nothing to do with you, I can handle it all myself!"

He didn't know his brother's strength and assumed Gao Yue had come out to cause trouble. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novèlfire.net

"Hahaha!! Brother! You still don't know who I am!" Gao Yue suddenly burst into laughter, looking around with an expression that turned chillingly cold, like a Heavenly God looking disdainfully upon the world, and snorted, "All those who mocked me just now must pay a price!!"

BOOM!!

As the Internal Force within Gao Yue began to circulate, the Water Spirit Energy in the world also surged tumultuously along with him. The originally calm sea surface immediately became roiling with waves, and the smoothly sailing luxury cruise ship began to rock!

Gao Yue spread his arms wide, using his Internal Force to communicate with the Yuan Qi, stirring the waters. With a cold smile, he looked at Qin Heng and said, "Mortal, you see my power now! On the high seas, I am everything, I am invincible!!"

"What is going on!? Oh, my God! The ship is starting to sway!"

"Damn it! Is there a disaster coming, a storm!? But it was clear just now!"

Many people on the deck panicked. They had no idea what was happening.

"Insects! Your lives are now in my hands!!" Gao Yue's entire body was shrouded in a hazy mist, hidden within, becoming deeply mysterious as he declared loudly, "With just a thought, I could flip this entire ship, and you all would be buried in the sea!!"

The moment Gao Yue uttered these words, the deck fell eerily silent; everyone looked at him in stunned disbelief. Just now, perhaps no one believed such words. But now, Gao Yue is actually shrouded in mist. This is clearly not something an ordinary person could do. Could it be, could the surging waves really be caused by him? How could that be possible! How could a human manipulate the waves out of thin air!?

"Gao Yue, did you do this?" After confirming that Gao Yue had such incredible abilities, Gao Yao immediately became overjoyed and exclaimed, "My good brother, kill Qin Heng and Du Pingshu for me now! Kill them!!"

As long as those two people are dead, today's events can be treated as if they never happened and will no longer affect me. No, not just those two people.

"That's right, Gao Yue, sink this ship! Sink it!!" Gao Yao shouted excitedly, looking at Qin Heng with wild laughter, "Young Master Qin, weren't you arrogant just now! Didn't you think you had me all figured out just now! Now fight back! Hahaha!!"

Gao Yao laughed wildly, with no restraint. But the people on the deck were plunged into sheer panic and despair, feeling the waves surge ever more violently, even as a tsunami over ten meters high rose ahead, crashing towards the cruise ship!!

It's all over! Completely over! Why would such a thing happen on a simple trip to Chongming Island!! Many felt their hearts turn to ash, filled with regret. We're doomed!! If we perish at sea, there's a ninety-nine percent chance of death!!

WHOOSH!!

Just at that moment, Red Flame Maiden, who was beside Qin Heng, suddenly made her move. Like a swift gust of wind!

With a flash, she instantly appeared beside Gao Yao. She then reached out—

THUD!!

With a muffled sound, Red Flame Maiden easily pierced through the mist protecting Gao Yue. Her pale fingers clasped onto Gao Yue's neck, instantly severing the connection between his Internal Force and the outside world.

Instantly, all the anomalies on the sea calmed down, as if nothing had happened. Many people who had been screaming in terror were suddenly confronted with calmness, leaving them somewhat confused. But they knew that the previous ordeal had been caused by Gao Yue! Immediately, all eyes turned towards him.

"How, how can you be so strong!?" Gao Yue incredulously gazed at Red Flame Maiden. I feel completely defenseless in this woman's grasp! How can this be possible! I received the legacy of an ancient Divine Skill; my strength far surpasses that of an ordinary Grandmaster. How can I not even defeat a woman!!

"Immortal Venerable, how would you like to deal with him?" Red Flame Maiden calmly asked Qin Heng, as if she were casually holding an ant, her tone very casual.

"Kill him," Qin Heng said indifferently.

"No! You can't kill me!" Gao Yue started to panic, saying, "My master is a Soldier Master on Chongming Island, comparable to a Martial Saint. If you kill me, it will immediately draw him here!! Then, none of you will survive!!"
