Chapter 73: The Mad Husband Nie Chen (Part 1)

The violent shaking of the spirit ship was caused by a collision with another spirit ship.

The students of the Heavenly Cloud Palace on board were shocked when they saw the spirit ship that had collided with them.

Mu Zhiying’s expression changed dramatically as she looked at the sail flag on the other spirit ship, and her face turned pale.

“The spirit ship is badly damaged, repair it quickly! If not, it will crash soon!” several students shouted in alarm.

Everyone rushed to the side of the ship to repair the damage with wooden materials and infused spiritual energy to fill the gaps.

Although the spirit ship stabilized, the damage was too severe, and the students’ efforts could only barely maintain its balance.

The spiritual energy inside the spirit ship would soon be depleted, and it would be forced to land.

On the other hand, the spirit ship that had caused the collision changed direction, and its bow was shrouded in a faint light, seemingly unscathed.

“Was it intentional?” Nie Chen’s brow furrowed.

“Perhaps, that spirit ship belongs to the Leiyan Valley,” Mu Zhiying said, her lips pursed and her face pale.

“Leiyan Valley? Why do I sense that you’re not quite right? Is there a grudge between Leiyan Valley and us?” Nie Chen asked, noticing Mu Zhiying’s unease.

In Nie Chen’s mind, the Heavenly Cloud Palace was one of the top powers in the world, and his wife, the Empress, controlled not only the Heavenly Cloud Palace but also the ten Star Luo Palaces, each with immense power.

If all these forces were mobilized, it would be a massive and intimidating presence, and there was no reason to fear other powers.

Mu Zhiying hesitated before speaking, “Senior Brother Nie joined the sect late, so you might not know. It’s not that the Heavenly Cloud Palace fears Leiyan Valley, but we don’t want to cause trouble for the Empress.”

“Trouble?” Nie Chen’s eyes narrowed.

“Yes, Leiyan Valley is under the control of the Emperor Leiyan, one of the three emperors who attacked the Empress in the past. Although the Empress defeated them, she was severely injured and still hasn’t fully recovered,” Mu Zhiying explained.

Nie Chen’s gaze turned cold as he recalled the Seven-Colored Nirvana Flower’s effect and the Empress’s reaction when she received it from him.

“So, you’re worried that the three emperors will join forces again and attack the Empress, and that’s why you don’t want to conflict with Leiyan Valley?” Nie Chen’s voice was icy.

Mu Zhiying nodded, noticing Nie Chen’s frozen expression.

Senior Brother Nie was still handsome, but in an instant, his carefree and playful demeanor changed, and Mu Zhiying felt a sense of security and comfort in his presence.

The air seemed to be filled with a faint, murderous intent.

Just then, the Leiyan Valley spirit ship slowed down and sailed alongside the Heavenly Cloud Palace spirit ship.

Several people from the Leiyan Valley spirit ship boarded the Heavenly Cloud Palace ship, all wearing blue robes with lightning patterns.

The leader, Cheng Xiuming, had a smug expression and laughed at the Heavenly Cloud Palace disciples.

“What a coincidence! I didn’t expect to meet the Heavenly Cloud Palace ship. But your ship is badly damaged, and it’s about to crash. Why don’t you just land and avoid embarrassing your Empress?” Cheng Xiu Ming sneered.

“He’s Cheng Xiuming, a rare genius from Leiyan Valley. He’s not only talented but also has a deep understanding of Lightning. He’s highly favored by Emperor Leiyan,” Mu Zhiying whispered, her teeth clenched in anger.

However, no one from the Heavenly Cloud Palace responded to Cheng Xiuming’s taunts, not wanting to cause unnecessary trouble for the Empress.

“Are you all mute? Or are the Heavenly Cloud Palace disciples all stupid? If you’re smart, you should follow me. Who knows, when the Heavenly Cloud Palace is destroyed, I might spare your lives,” Cheng Xiu Ming mocked.

The Heavenly Cloud Palace disciples were furious, but they didn’t dare respond, fearing that it would lead to more trouble.

But Nie Chen’s killing intent grew stronger, and his eyes turned colder.
