Chapter 1267 Will Lose
Chapter 1267 Will Lose
His heart leaped into his throat; he felt he was going to lose!
Just as his thoughts were in turmoil, he suddenly heard Lin Yiwan's cheerful voice: "Master Wei, you can open your eyes now!"
Wei Ziyuan subconsciously opened his eyes. He looked around blankly, and a smile gradually appeared on his originally calm face.
He strode up to Min De and said excitedly, "Ade, your master can finally see you! Aren't you happy for your master?"
Min De's expression was bitter. He knew he should laugh, but he couldn't help but laugh.
He could only manage to say, "Congratulations, Master!"
He clenched his fists tightly, a fleeting murderous glint in his eyes.
Lin Yiwan seemed not to notice, and slowly said, "Master Wei, now that I have cured your eyes, you should keep your promise. Please come with me on a trip to sea!"
Wei Ziyuan quickly bowed and said, "Don't worry, benefactor, I will pack my bags right now and do my best to serve you!"
To prevent any unforeseen circumstances, Zhan Yan personally accompanied him to pack his bags.
Min De's face was gloomy and ugly; he was unwilling to admit defeat!
Since we can't monitor them as they go out to sea, we can only send another pair of eyes to follow them.
He thought of the young girl still in the Heavenly Mandate Palace and immediately said, "Your Majesty, I have other matters to attend to, so I will take my leave now!"
Without giving the King of Wu a chance to agree, he hurriedly left.
Lin Yiwan looked at his back and said, "Uncle, you have been too lenient with this Grand Fate Master. He is very arrogant. If you hadn't brought the troops in time, I'm afraid Ayan and I would not have been able to invite Master Wei at all!"
The King of Wu spoke with a complicated expression: "He is the faith of the fishermen of Li Kingdom. His extraordinary skills have made me value him. You will have to be more tolerant of him!"
Lin Yiwan would not tolerate it. As long as she found evidence that Min De had murdered his mother-in-law and Min Xiang, she would take his life.
Master Wei quickly packed his bags and came out, accompanied by a servant.
He said respectfully, "I'm all ready, we can set sail now!"
The King of Wu followed up, saying, "I've also arranged for the ships to be anchored at the seaside. I'll escort you there now!"
When the group arrived at the beach, they were surprised to find a girl in purple already waiting for them.
King Wu was taken aback at first, and asked in surprise, "Min Yue, what brings you here?"
Min Yue first bowed to him before explaining, "I heard that the Lady of the Marquis has found a navigator to search for my uncle, so I wanted to go with them on the ship. My aunt has been very kind to me, and I wanted to do my part for her!"
After saying this, she asked with tears in her eyes, "Your Majesty, you can't even grant me this small wish? You should know that ever since they disappeared, I have been unable to eat or sleep in peace!"
A look of difficulty flashed across the King of Wu's face; he simply couldn't bring himself to refuse her.
Lin Yiwan, however, spoke up abruptly: "I'm sorry, our boat is full. If you want to go out to sea, you'll have to find your own way!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she ignored how unpleasant Min Yue's expression was and urged Lu Na'er and her daughter to board the ship quickly.
Min Yue's maid couldn't stand it any longer and angrily said, "Our young lady is of noble status. You should be the one inviting her onto the ship, not letting these two lowly commoners board!"
Min Yue's expression changed drastically; it was too late for her to stop the maid.
She could only anxiously explain, "Madam, please don't take it to heart. She doesn't know the rules, but I will teach her properly in the future!"
Lin Yiwan said in a deep voice, "It's your business to teach her in the future, but she has offended me and insulted my friend. I will not let her off easily. Zi'er, slap her mouth!"
The maidservant protested in fear, "How dare you! I am the young lady's first-class maidservant. How can you outsiders lay a hand on me?"
Min Yue also looked pleadingly at the King of Wu: "Your Majesty, please help me plead for her. She only made a mistake unintentionally; she didn't mean it!"
The King of Wu ignored her and remained silent.
Zi'er's slap was hard and heavy, and when it landed on the maid's face, the maid screamed in pain.
Lin Yiwan only stopped Zi'er when her face turned bright blue and swollen.
She narrowed her eyes and said, "Miss Min, teach your maid a lesson. If she does it again, it won't be as simple as a slap. I'll take her life myself!"
The cold, ruthless words sent a shiver down Min Yue's spine.
Lin Yiwan stepped over her and boarded the large ship, and soon ordered the sails to be raised and the ship to set sail.
Min Yue then remembered her purpose, and looked at the King of Wu with a complicated expression: "You know that my adoptive father sent me, so why won't you let me board the ship? How am I supposed to explain this to my adoptive father?"
King Wu frowned and said, "Go back and tell him that I can't make that decision about the ship. If he really wants you to go to sea to search for people, then send another ship!"
Min Yue's back stiffened as she watched helplessly as the King of Wu turned and left.
She bit her lip hard and quickly followed behind.
After Lin Yiwan and Zhan Yan boarded the ship, they saw Wei Ziyuan directing the crew.
He hurriedly explained, "Don't be fooled by the calm sea now; it might turn into a raging storm soon. Let's raise the sails now, just in case!"
Lin Yiwan walked up to him and said, "Master Wei, the place where my mother and Prime Minister Min disappeared is called Immortal Island. Have you ever been there?"
Wei Ziyuan was immediately stunned: "What did you say? Immortal Island?"
Lin Yiwan nodded emphatically: "That's right. I just asked Lu Na'er's mother. Her husband was a crew member on that ship, so she knows some inside information!"
A look of worry flashed across Wei Ziyuan's face. He frowned and said, "Immortal Island is a very strange place. It is shrouded in fog all year round. Even very experienced navigators will get lost when they enter that sea area. Why would they go to that place?"
Lin Yiwan sighed helplessly: "They say someone found a fist-sized, top-quality sea pearl on that island and brought it out. Mother and Prime Minister Min are very curious and want to go and find out!"
Wei Ziyuan spoke in a cryptic tone: "I had heard that Min Xiang'ai was adventurous, but I never expected that she would encounter such an accident. Now that they have been missing for so long, we don't even know if they are dead or alive!"
Zhan Yan said without hesitation, "I want to see him alive or dead!"
Just then, Lu Na'er and Zhan Miao suddenly shouted, "Look! A huge wave is coming!"
Wei Ziyuan's expression changed drastically. He looked over instinctively and, sure enough, saw that the waves, almost level with the sky, were roaring and sweeping in.
He urged hurriedly, "Get to the cabin quickly, hurry, hide well!"
Lin Yiwan and Zhan Yan both held the sea in awe, and the two obediently returned to the cabin.
Almost as soon as they took cover, the entire ship began to shake violently.
Zhan Miao was so shaken that she could barely stand. She clung tightly to Zhan Xiaobai, her face filled with terror.
