The Green Dragon Takes Flight
The Alamaria Spirit Ship struggled to regain stability after the two enormous fireballs exploded nearby, leaving several sails burning above the deck.Captain Gong remained at the helm while sailors hurried between the damaged rigging, attempting to contain the flames before they spread.The vessel had avoided a direct collision, but the pressure waves had strained its masts and disturbed the balance required for steady flight.One sailor pulled against a loosened rope and called, "Keep the damaged sail from falling, because the burning cloth could reach the deck!"Two companions rushed to assist him, struggling against the wind as glowing fragments drifted downward through the rigging.Captain Gong examined the ship's heading and ordered the crew to maintain its northern course until the immediate damage could be controlled."Do not attempt another reckless
Snow Beneath the Moon
The Alamaria Spirit Ship maintained its northern course while the sailors gradually returned to conversations interrupted by their earlier escape.Ning Ju remained near the observation deck, keeping the Eastern Mansion vessel within sight despite its greater distance behind them.The sky had been reasonably clear throughout the journey, allowing scattered stars to remain visible around the pale spring moon.That familiar appearance began changing when dark clouds gathered across the western heavens and spread toward the route ahead.At first the sailors paid little attention, assuming the clouds belonged to an ordinary change in weather above eastern Logun.Then the stars gradually disappeared behind the thickening darkness, leaving the surrounding sky unusually dim for a night illuminated by moonlight.One sailor looked upward and asked, "Is a storm approaching, or have we entered a region where the weather changes suddenly?"His companion examined the sails and answered, "The wind h
The Pride of Alamaria
Nearly half an hour passed after Captain Gong's sharp maneuver, and the Alamaria Spirit Ship continued moving north without suffering another interruption.The larger Eastern Mansion vessel remained behind them, its distant outline appearing smaller whenever the sailors examined the dark western sky.The crew gradually resumed ordinary tasks, encouraged by the growing separation and the absence of attacks from their pursuer.Captain Gong continued supervising the helm, aware that a successful maneuver could be undone by complacency during the remaining journey.The men serving beneath him were less cautious, particularly after repeated observations confirmed that the pursuing vessel had not regained its earlier position.A sailor securing a rope grinned toward his companion and said, "Our captain made that large ship look helpless with a single turn."His com
The Captain's Desperate Turn
Ning Ju recognized the Eastern Mansion banner above the approaching Spirit Ship, and the blood gradually drained from her face.The larger vessel was advancing from the western sky, its course bringing it steadily closer to the Alamaria Spirit Ship heading north.Although considerable distance still separated them, Ning Ju understood that the approaching ship carried someone far more dangerous than its visible armaments suggested.Cold sweat gathered at her temples as she remembered Guo Jiang's overwhelming Banxiang cultivation and their final conversation inside Eastern Mansion.He had allowed her to leave because of their shared past, but that mercy had never amounted to permission for further attacks against eastern Logun.Ning Ju gripped the railing and thought, "If he has followed us from Jinhung, then he has already decided this matter cannot be ignored."
The Banner from the West
By the third night watch, the Almaria Chamber of Commerce had begun preparing its personnel to leave Shiwei City.The compound remained orderly despite the urgency, with guards and attendants following established instructions rather than spreading rumors about the reason for departure.Ning Ju had finished preparing her belongings, although she still did not know whether Sakimoto would accept the evacuation himself.The decision to move north had already shaped the preparations, because other foreign forces were expected to be operating in that direction.She understood that the withdrawal represented preservation rather than a new offensive, especially after the losses suffered in Jinhung.The Spirit Ship waited above the city, its crew attending to the ordinary preparations required before leaving the coastal trading region.Below, the night watch continue
Chapter 416: The Gap Between Two Realms
Sakimoto stood beside the map of Alamaria and Logun, his question still carrying the confidence of someone accustomed to superior martial status.Ning Ju listened without immediately answering, because she understood that contradicting his pride too quickly might only deepen his resistance.He interpreted her silence as hesitation and continued explaining why he considered evacuation an unnecessary surrender of their position."I have reached Kaishi, Ning Ju, and the authority of a Green Dragon Rider was earned through hardships you understand better than most."His voice remained controlled, although the way his hand tightened against the table betrayed the importance he placed upon recognition."Guo Jiang may have been talented in Yin Continent, but we have advanced far beyond the lives we lived there."Ning Ju watched him carefully, remembering the strengt
