Chapter 4313: 5.0065 Absolute Resolve
Qingcheng Island was indeed sinking.
Qiaomu turned her head and saw a scene of impending disaster.
The entirety of Qingcheng Island was pouring into the sea, the lush green island slowly, bit by bit, disappearing before their eyes.
Qingxuexue and her three hundred personal guards were naturally dumbfounded, frantically rushing to the second-story railing, extending a hand in horror towards the distant Qingcheng Island.
"Mother!"
Mother, was Mother truly so resolute?
[Aunt Ye said that even if the entire island were to completely perish, she wouldn't let this place become the Heavenly Fate's lair. So, this is what she meant?]
Qiaomu watched the slowly sinking Qingcheng Island, feeling a throbbing pain in her head.
Things had escalated so rapidly and unexpectedly.
Originally, there should have been a more suitable way to take Qingye and everyone away together, but now...
"Ha, ha, ha! Did you see it? Did you see it?!" Qinghongse, on the side, pointed at the sinking island in the distance and shouted furiously, "This is my good mother, my good mother!"
While sending Qingxuexue away, she completely disregarded her own life.
If she hadn't been clever enough to escape, she would now be sinking along with everyone else on Qingcheng Island!
Was only Qingxuexue's life important, and hers wasn't?
Qiaomu was currently suffering from a headache and felt a surge of anger upon hearing this woman loudly shouting.
With a slight wave of her small hand, two Phoenix Clan members immediately rushed forward, directly grabbing and tying up the loudly protesting Qinghongse. They even thoughtfully stuffed a strip of cloth into her mouth to gag her.
"Woo! Woo woo! Woo." Qinghongse glared angrily at Qiaomu and the others, her eyes filled with accusation.
Why was this woman so outrageous?
She was merely stating facts; why wasn't she even given a chance to speak?
"Sister Qiao," Qingxuexue was helped to her feet and turned to glance at her third sister.
"Noisy," Qiaomu waved her hand again, and the two Phoenix Clan members dragged Qinghongse towards the cargo hold, directly tossing her inside. With a "clatter," they slid the hatch closed, thus dealing with her.
At this moment, everyone was busy dealing with the swarm of harpy-like creatures flying overhead. Who had the leisure to listen to Qinghongse's commotion?
The ship's speed was not slow, but the harpy-like creatures' flying speed seemed to be even faster.
Qingxuexue's three hundred personal guards continuously fired arrows from the bow, indeed shooting down many harpy-like creatures.
However, after half an hour, although the number of harpy-like creatures had decreased, everyone was panting heavily due to excessive spiritual power depletion.
Continuing like this was naturally not ideal.
Qiaomu narrowed her eyes and took out some spirit recovery potions from her storage talisman, distributing them to everyone.
"Use the spirit stone cannons." Qiaomu stepped towards the ship's ladder at one end, her gaze coldly sweeping over the densely packed harpy-like creatures rapidly surrounding them in the sky.
The Phoenix Clan members quickly gathered around.
Several spirit stone cannons were placed in front of the railing, perfect for bombarding these desperate harpy-like creatures.
With a "clatter, clatter" sound, the little poker face poured out many spirit stones from a storage talisman.
The several Phoenix Clan members standing in front of the spirit stone cannons were stunned for a moment, then prepared to hoist the spirit stones onto the cannon barrels.
However, as the spirit stones piled up on the ground from the storage talisman, everyone's expressions gradually turned to astonishment.
Uh, not done pouring yet? How many spirit stones did Her Saintliness store in that storage talisman?
After a moment of愣, a group of Phoenix Clan members quickly gathered in groups of three to five around a spirit stone cannon.
