607: Big Fish

In contrast, Wang Yan didn't overthink things.

He still stuck to his own ideas.

The fundamental reason for this change in attitude was that the Third Prince, Dongfang Yao, was currently the strongest.

Not asking for his opinion would be somewhat disrespectful.

At this moment, Dongfang Yao heard the question.

He immediately revealed a smug smile, a hint of disdain in his eyes.

It was as if a long-held knot of Qi had suddenly been released.

When Wang Gou saw this scene, his earlier suspicions grew even stronger.

He had already felt that this matter could not possibly be as simple as it appeared on the surface.

Now, it seemed there were still unknown secrets within it.

He had even begun to form a certain conjecture.

Perhaps this person in front of him was the one among the many princes who had entered, the one who kept a low profile.

Just as he was pondering, Dongfang Yao spoke.

"Fifth Brother, let's go straight across this lake. Taking a detour might waste even more time."

"And going over the lake will not take much distance, saving time."

As soon as these words were spoken, Dongfang Chen didn't even think, and simply nodded.

Wang Gou's heart immediately sank.

This scene was no longer just the reduced effect of strength brought by power.

One must know that no matter what, Dongfang Chen would always have his own thoughts and opinions before.

One could even often see him contemplating the problems alone.

Now, he made a decision simply because of someone else's words.

Why was this happening?

It was at this moment.

Dongfang Chen waved his hand.

An enormous warship appeared on the lake.

Finally, he was the first to fly onto it.

The others followed behind, and before long, everyone had boarded the ship.

Only the two members of the Wang family remained there.

Wang Yan did not move because Wang Gou did not move.

The main reason Wang Gou did not move was that he felt something was amiss.

At this moment, he naturally did not intend to go up.

When Dongfang Chen saw this, he was momentarily stunned and couldn't help but ask,

"Why aren't the two of you getting on the ship? Are you planning to part ways here?"

As soon as these words were spoken, both of their expressions immediately turned grim.

Wang Gou still didn't intend to board the ship, but Wang Yan shook his head gently at him.

Then he whispered in his ear,

"At this time, it's better to go with the flow. I actually also have an ominous premonition."

Hearing this, Wang Gou nodded.

Then the two of them boarded the ship together.

Dongfang Chen sneered at this scene.

Then he ordered his subordinates to continue sailing.

Before long, this large ship was already heading towards the center of the lake.

It wouldn't take long before it could completely pass through.

Wang Yan looked at the calm lake and turned to Wang Gou, saying,

"Dongfang Chen's attitude towards us seems to have changed. Is it also related to the True Immortal? His Third Brother shouldn't have such a great influence on him, even changing his entire personality."

"If it were before, I would never have tolerated such treatment."

Wang Gou narrowed his eyes.

"You also think something is wrong? Such a rapid change in personality definitely indicates a problem."

"It seems the Alliance we agreed upon earlier should be null and void."

As soon as these words were spoken, Wang Yan was momentarily stunned.

"What do you mean by that? It can't be just because of an attitude problem..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly realized.

His expression instantly darkened.

It seemed that there truly might be a problem with that pool of water.

Otherwise, such a drastic change in attitude and personality within such a short period of time was almost impossible.

Could it be that some old monster had taken Possession in that pool of water?

But so many people had immersed themselves in it, and there seemed to be no problem.

Just as the two of them were thinking this, the ship suddenly swayed.

Immediately after, directly in front of them, a colossal water column suddenly appeared on the previously calm lake.

Following that, an enormous fish soared out.

It arced through the air, then plunged back into the lake, stirring up monstrous waves.

A terrifying roar emanated from the fish's mouth.

All the surrounding water, at this moment, formed a colossal vortex, engulfing the entire ship in its center.

Everyone looked closely; the fish's scales were iridescent, revealing a vast and majestic aura.

Its Qi was terrifyingly immense, even causing a suffocating sensation for some Cultivators with weaker cultivation.

Upon seeing this, both Wang Yan and Wang Gou were momentarily stunned.

Then their expressions turned grim.

This large fish was not weak.

The Qi it displayed was no less powerful than the giant snake they had encountered before.

They had struggled so much to deal with it before, and now encountering it in the water would be even more difficult.

How should they deal with it?

At this moment, Dongfang Chen also spoke, but he did not immediately call for everyone to attack.

Instead, he looked at the Third Prince beside him.

"Third Brother, how should we deal with this large fish?"

"Of course, we go forward and hunt it down. Are we just going to waste time here?"

Dongfang Yao's words were not polite.

Yet Dongfang Chen seemed to agree wholeheartedly, nodding his head.

Immediately after, he lunged towards the giant fish.

Seeing this Prince make a move, many other Cultivators followed suit.

However, the two members of the Wang family felt their hearts sink.

What was happening?

One must know that Dongfang Chen had never made a move before.

Not to mention, at this moment, under someone else's reprimand, he actually took the initiative to go forward.

And this person was the former Third Prince.

The two, who already felt something was amiss, could now almost confirm it.

As everyone rushed towards the water surface.

The enormous fish stirred up monstrous waves.

A single flick of its tail instantly sent a large number of Cultivators into the lake.

A terrifying tremor resounded.

Immediately after, some Cultivators on the deck immediately formed a battle formation.

Terrifying spells were cast.

The continuous fluctuations of spiritual energy dyed half the sky in various colors.

All sorts of spells emerged one after another.

And the large fish's eyes rolled.

Immediately after, a layer of black armor condensed on its scales.

The next moment, all the spells hitting the black armor had almost no effect.

Immediately after, the large fish flicked its tail again.

Like a mountain collapsing and a sea overturning.

Countless waves immediately surged up, crashing towards the ship, which was like a small boat.

Boom! Boom!

A terrifying tremor sounded.

A light blue barrier immediately appeared on the hull.

The next moment, it collided with the water.

But it was only for a moment.

The barrier immediately disappeared.
