Chapter 12: The Wrecked Ship Returns Home (Part 2)

  Ten whole days passed, and Leixing Feng finally saw a small boat. It was a small fishing boat, slightly larger than the one Leixing Feng had now. He immediately rowed towards it with all his might, and the speed of this small boat was terrifying. A white foam trail appeared at the stern of the boat, as if it were flying across the water's surface. In just over ten minutes, he caught up to the distant boat.

  The people on the other boat also saw Leixing Peak, originally wanting to avoid it, but when they saw the speed of Leixing Peak's small boat, they knew there was no way to escape. The speed was not something that an ordinary small boat could have, it was too fast, like a shooting arrow, and they knew it wasn't an ordinary person's boat, so avoiding it would be useless.

  That small boat was going too fast, and even if it caught up with that ship, it had to circle around the small boat several times before stabilizing.

  "What? Old Zhang! How come it's you?"

  Zhang Lao Da was also stunned, he didn't expect it to be Lei Xing Feng either. He said: "Oh my, is that little brother? How come you've been out for a whole rainy season without returning? Zhou Lao Da has been waiting for you..."

  "Lei Xingfeng asked: "How is he? And Little Xin, are they okay?"

  "Good, very good," said Zhang Lao Da with a smile. "Hey, this boat of yours..." It was only then that he noticed the broken-down boat, which probably only Lei Xing Feng could use. There was nothing inside, just an empty hull floating on the water's surface, without even a cabin board, a bare boat, as if it had been looted clean.

  Lei Xingfeng smiled wryly and said, "Someone was fighting, and it affected me, so..." He couldn't explain in detail either, and explaining to an ordinary person wouldn't make any sense. He said, "Old Zhang, can you take me back to the market? Hehe, I'm lost."

  Zhang Lao Da opened his big mouth, and after a while, he said: "My goodness, others are fighting, your boat... uh, got lost, okay, okay, you come over, tie the boat to mine, I'll take you back."

  Lei Xingfeng had been working hard for several tens of days and finally could rest. He tied the small boat to Zhang Lao's boat as promised, then boarded Zhang Lao's boat and asked: "How far is it from here to the market?"

  Zhang Lao Da let out a bitter laugh and said: "Half a day, hurry up, maybe not even half a day... Ah, right, your small boat earlier, how did it go so fast?"

  Lei Xingfeng smiled and pulled out a stainless steel oar, causing the small boat to sink down a bit. He said, "I'll use this oar."

  Zhang Lao Da took one look and knew it was a steel rattle drum, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Good fellow." He had long known that Lei Xing Feng was a cultivator, so he was surprised by the sudden appearance of the steel rattle drum, nodding his head in agreement: "I can't even shake this kind of steel rattle drum, it's too heavy."

  Lei Xingfeng smiled and said: "I'll row the boat, you point out the direction."

  Zhang Lao Da knew that Lei Xing Feng was dissatisfied with his own slow pace and also wanted to conserve some energy, so he smiled and said: "Alright, but you have to use my oar. My oar can't withstand your strength." He pulled out his own oar and placed it on the oar rack at the side of the boat, helping Lei Xing Feng set up the steel oar frame, smiling as he said: "Okay, now it's your turn." Actually, he was also curious about how Lei Xing Feng could use such a heavy oar.

  Lei Xingfeng just lightly pulled the oar, and the small boat seemed to be struck by a giant beast, suddenly surging forward. Zhang Lao Da was shocked and couldn't help but exclaim: "So fierce!"

  Rowing is just one step forward, one step back, and the oar draws a zigzag shape on the water surface. The small boat relies on this force to move forward, but Leixing Peak's strength is too great, and after advancing and retreating several times, the boat has already flown quickly.

  The gap in strength between ordinary people and cultivators is really too big, and there's no comparison between the two.

  In less than half an hour, Leixing Feng had already seen the shadow of the market on the water's surface. He sighed and said: "On the lake, it is really difficult to find a fixed place... It has been more than half a year, and I have just found my way back."

  "Otherwise, if it weren't for Old Man Ao, no one would dare to run far. We all stay around the market, not more than six or seven days' journey away. If we go too far, we might get lost. Every year, several small boats go missing, hehe, you're still quite lucky."

  There are still many small boats docked at the market wharf, but it's not yet fishing season, so most of the boats are still in the market. In a dozen or so days, there won't be even a few small boats left here.

  When the two small boats docked, the entire dock was in an uproar. Leixingfeng had already been quite famous at the dock before the rainy season arrived. After all, a cultivator so young would definitely attract attention. Moreover, his relationship with the ruler of the market also inspired fear.

  Lei Xingfeng, from the secretive wheel master before he left to the four-ring true body of the great wheel true person after he returned, his personal cultivation was also turned upside down. With his cultivation, in some medium and small-sized sects, he could be called a king or overlord.

  Zhou Tong and Zhou Xin saw Leixing Peak, as if they were in a different world. Looking at the small boat of Leixing Peak again, Zhou Tong said: "Encountered water bandits? It's good to be back, it's good to be back."

  "Zhou Xin was very nervous and asked: "Lei Gege, are you okay? Didn't get hurt?"

  Lei Xingfeng rubbed Zhou Xin's head and laughed: "Nothing, just the boat was destroyed, found a new small boat, but this little boat is also almost scrapped, haha."

  "It doesn't matter, as long as brother can come back safely."

  Lei Xingfeng's heart moved slightly, and he thought: "This little guy is quite good."

  Before Leixingfeng could speak, someone had already come over. It was Zhonggeng's servant, who had been waiting at the dock specifically for Leixingfeng. Seeing Leixingfeng return, he immediately stepped forward to speak, while another servant quickly ran back to report.

  At first, Lei Xingfeng went to Yu Huo Lake with the star python, but as a result, he provoked a giant lake star python, which almost made Zhong Gang's army defeated. From that moment on, Lei Xingfeng became famous among the cultivators in the market, so when Lei Xingfeng returned, someone immediately came to greet him, which was not surprising.

  Moreover, Lei Xingfeng had once instructed Zhong Geng and Wu Zhen, master and disciple, who thus advanced in rank, which even more made the local practitioners revere him as a divine being.

  Soon, someone came to invite Lei Xingfeng over.

  Lei Xingfeng didn't stay at the dock for too long, he still had to buy another boat from Zhong Geng, and he had promised to give Zhou Xin a boat, no matter what, he had to do it, so he got up and followed the servant to Zhong Geng's residence.

  Zhong Geng, Wu Zhen and Han Liubao came out together to greet them.

  "Long time no see, haha."

  Zhong Gang took a few steps forward, smiling and saying: "Yes, Lei brother, once we go out, it's the rainy season, hehe, I heard that your boat was destroyed, can you tell me about it? If you need us, just give us a shout, hehe." This is to help with the punch.

  Lei Xingfeng said, "That was my two sisters fighting... and it also destroyed the city, killing tens of thousands of people. What can I say?" He smiled and said, "It's okay, if it's broken, just break it, and buy a new one."

  Since Lei Xingfeng doesn't mind, Zhong Geng certainly won't make a big deal out of it. Please go home, Lei Xingfeng.

  After a few people sat down, Lei Xingfeng took a glance at Zhong Geng and smiled: "Not bad, one rainy season has completely solidified his cultivation."

  Zhong Geng burst out laughing and said, "Yes, yes, I've been working hard for a whole rainy season. I haven't gone out, but fortunately, I caught a lake star python while fishing, which exchanged for many useful things. Right, go bring the trunk from my room."

  Two servants immediately brought over a large wooden chest and placed it beside the four of them.

  Opening the wooden box, it was filled with gold and silver rings. Zhong Geng said: "This is your share from last time's fishing and hunting trip. Because the body of Hu Xingmang wouldn't keep for long, they were all exchanged for ring money."

  Lei Xingfeng said indifferently: "Leave one bag of gold rings, the others... exchange for a small boat, yes, just like the last time's small boat will do."

  Wu Zhen said, "A small boat that can't be used won't cost much money, at most it's just a few dozen gold rings, and it's already the best small boat." The value of the gold ring is extremely high, and it can be used anywhere, it's a standard hard currency, so using gold and silver rings is actually more cost-effective than bartering.

  Lei Xingfeng nodded and said: "Alright, leave the money for buying a boat, I'll take care of the rest."

  Zhong Gengsong held his breath, fearing that Lei Xingfeng would not accept it, which meant that Lei Xingfeng was dissatisfied with the allocation. For him, this was a very unfavorable thing. His next step in promotion still needed Lei Xingfeng's guidance, and he did not want to offend such a major sect disciple. Until now, he still thought Lei Xingfeng was a disciple of the major sect who came out for training.

  Wu Zhen did not dare to delay and immediately ordered his men to buy a new boat, while Lei Xingfeng put away the extra money.

  Just then, a man rushed in, shouting: "Master, master, it's bad, it's bad! Someone has broken into the market and is going to occupy it!"

  Lei Xingfeng looked up and smiled, "Isn't this Tian Dabiao?" He had no good impression of Tian Dabiao at all. A typical local tyrant who only knew how to bully the weak.

  Zhong Geng slightly furrowed his brow and said: "What's with the 'calm down' nonsense? You're a cultivator, not an ordinary person!"

  Tian Dabiao's voice suddenly became smaller as he saw Leixing Peak, and he said: "Master, it's true... someone has really come to kill us. Outside the market, there are more than 30 boats, and three large ships, all of which are large sailboats, and their strength should not be weak!"

  Zhong Geng took a glance at Lei Xingfeng and thought to himself, "Luckily Brother Lei has arrived. With the two of us being Wheel Masters, what's there to be afraid of?" He didn't know that Lei Xingfeng was no longer a Wheel Master, but rather a True Person-level expert, a true master of the Great Wheel.

  "What's the panic? Let's go take a look!"

  The four of them stood up, and Wu Zhen called over several servants and family members, and they all walked out together.
