Abyss Game: I am covered with cheats

"So, which direction should we head towards the Imperial City now?"

Following behind Bai Xia, Xu Tong asked this question.

The main reason being that he had just arrived in this instance and didn't have a map of this world. Forget the Imperial City, even if you asked Xu Tong where he was, he wouldn't be able to tell you.

Asking others for directions? He hadn't encountered many normal people along the way. They would point and gesture vaguely, acting as if their brains hadn't fully developed, pointing forward and then backward, only to tell him after a long time:

"I don't know."

If you don't know, then what are you pointing at!

Helpless, Xu Tong could only place his hopes on Bai Xia. Since he was an agent of the Ancient God, he should have some ability, no matter what.

To Xu Tong's question, Bai Xia smiled slightly.

"I can find the way, but the journey will be a bit bumpy. Can you handle that?"

Xu Tong: "Do I have a choice? I can't find the way myself."

Hearing this, Bai Xia nodded. "Alright, follow me. We'll take the waterway first."

"Taking the waterway, along this river, will save a lot of time."

Xu Tong nodded slightly. "That makes sense, but what kind of bumps are we talking about?"

Bai Xia grinned.

"You'll find out soon enough."

Xu Tong suddenly had a bad feeling.

Walking along the riverbank, the two soon saw something resembling a fishing boat dock. A small boat floated on the surface of the river, secured to the edge of the dock with a thick rope to prevent it from drifting away with the current.

The boat wasn't small, capable of accommodating at least a dozen passengers. There were already people on the boat, and just from their aura, it was clear that these guys were not ordinary.

Bai Xia came to the dock and asked the boatman, "Hello, we want to go to the Imperial City. Can we get on board?"

As soon as they heard that they were going to the Imperial City, the passengers on the boat immediately looked sharp, as if they all knew what each other was thinking.

This group of people were all martial artists.

They were all aiming for the title of Martial Arts Overlord!

The boatman didn't have any objections. "Twenty taels of silver per person. We are not responsible for any dangers along the way."

"Twenty taels of silver? Are you robbing us?" Xu Tong was dumbfounded. He wasn't responsible for the dangers along the way? What a joke!

He could just rob them directly, but he thoughtfully provided a boat to take you part of the way.

The boatman curled his lips. "This has been the price for years. Take it or leave it. If you want to get to the Imperial City from here, by the time you arrive, the day lilies will be cold."

Rubbing his temples, Xu Tong chose to compromise. "Alright, you have the boat, you make the rules. Bai Xia, pay up."

Bai Xia blinked. "Where would I get money?"

Xu Tong: "Are you saying that I have to pay for your boat ride too?"

Bai Xia: "Isn't that obvious?"

Xu Tong: "Give me a receipt, and I'll get reimbursed from the Material Controller later."

After paying forty taels of silver, Xu Tong and Bai Xia boarded the boat and found a seat near the edge.

Xu Tong's gaze swept over the boat, and there were quite a few hostile gazes.

After all, everyone's goal was to compete for the position of Martial Arts Overlord. If they could eliminate some of their competitors in advance, their competitiveness would definitely increase greatly.

Xu Tong was always prepared, but soon, he saw a string of text in the crowd.

A name was floating above someone's head, and that person also looked up and met Xu Tong's eyes.

Xu Tong: "Hello."

Shen Yu: "..."

After seeing Xu Tong's face, Shen Yu stood up directly, holding a long spear in his hand.

Shen Yu: "Come on."

Xu Tong: "Come on what?"

Shen Yu: "I lost to you last time in Sin City, but not this time. I have transformed."

Xu Tong frowned.

"Did you lose your virginity?"

Shen Yu: "..."

Xu Tong definitely didn't want to fight Shen Yu right now. After all, there were so many interested parties around watching, and he didn't want them to reap the benefits.

Moreover, fighting Shen Yu would definitely be troublesome. In the Sin City instance, Xu Tong had already seen Shen Yu's strength. Fighting this guy would definitely require him to use the backup hidden energy of the Outer God's power.

It would be better to postpone the battle with this guy a little.

"Sit down first. We can talk about it later," Xu Tong said seriously, talking nonsense. "I'm a little seasick right now. You wouldn't take advantage of me, would you?"

Listening to Xu Tong's words, Shen Yu really thought about it seriously, and then nodded. "Okay, then I'll wait until you get off the boat and adjust your condition before we talk. I'm not a petty person who takes advantage of others."

After speaking, he sat back down in his seat, curled up. His already short stature was like a little dog among this group of martial arts masters.

Bai Xia leaned closer to Xu Tong and asked, "Is this guy socially awkward? It feels like no one is talking to him."

Xu Tong: "Shh, don't ask about this kind of thing. It will hurt his fragile heart."

Shen Yu: "..."

Seeing that it was almost time, the boatman got up, stepped on the bow of the boat, stuck his head into the cabin, and shouted, "Get ready to set sail! Does anyone have anything else to say? I'm too lazy to pay attention to you if you do. We're setting sail now!"

Unfastening the rope, the boatman steered the boat, sliding downstream along the river.

The setting sun slanted down, and in the swaying reeds, the orange-red sun cast its faint light on the surface of the river, sparkling, with a bit of beauty.

"It feels quite peaceful along the way," Xu Tong said, his gaze sweeping over the martial artists around him. "No one is planning to make a move. It feels like everyone is planning to wait until they get off the boat."

Bai Xia hummed an unknown tune, not answering Xu Tong's words.

This made Xu Tong have some bad premonitions instead.

Sure enough, within seconds, an abnormal situation occurred.

Bright flames suddenly lit up in the reeds. Although dusk wasn't dark, this dazzling firelight was truly frightening.

Clusters of fire lit up from the reeds, and several larger boats surrounded them from all directions.

Countless water bandits stood at the bow of the boats, looking at the boat in front of them with greedy eyes.

"Hehehe! Boss! We have a big harvest today! Looking at the clothes of these people on the boat, they must all be rich!"

Hearing this, a man with an X-shaped scar on his face came out from the largest boat, his gaze sweeping over the martial arts masters on the boat.

"Damn! It's actually him!"

The martial arts masters on the boat recognized this person at a glance and exclaimed.

"Water Ghost, Du Mengfan!"

"It is said that this person has reached a terrifying 57th place on the Earth Ranking of the martial arts masters' Heaven and Earth Rankings. How terrifying!"

Everyone's eyes scanned internally, but found that there wasn't even a master on the Earth Ranking on the boat.

"This is bad. It is said that Water Ghost is not only good at swimming, but also highly skilled in martial arts on a turbulent boat, and can even compete with the top ten masters on the Earth Ranking. How should we fight against him now?"

"In my opinion, it's better to surrender directly!"

The "martial arts masters" on the boat chattered and discussed for a long time, only to come up with the result of surrendering.

Xu Tong was speechless.

At this time, one person stood up silently in the crowd.

Du Mengfan's eyes fell on the person who stood up, and he grinned.

"Not bad, you are the only one willing to resist me. I will give you respect."

The person who stood up was none other than Shen Yu.

At this time, Shen Yu's face was solemn. Although his height was not high, he had forcibly walked out with a two-meter aura.

He came to the bow of the boat and raised the spear in his hand.

Then.

"I'm sorry... Vomit..."

He saw Shen Yu趴on the bow of the boat, vomiting a large pool of vomit into the river.

Bai Xia: "..."

Xu Tong: "Now I know why he believed I was seasick."

How come this guy is seasick himself!
