The prolonged silence atop the western camel hump gradually wore away Hai Zongming's patience.
"Jiang Wang, we could have resolved this matter peacefully. But you had to make things so ugly!"
As his words fell, Hai Zongming's hands were already outstretched and lifting upwards.
Suddenly, the sound of the tides echoed from the western camel hump.
There were no rivers nearby, so where did the tidal sound come from?
But the sound of the tides became clearer and stronger, and increasingly powerful.
It originated from the depths of the earth!
Hai Zongming had tapped into an underground river and was mobilizing it with a secret technique!
He had not wanted to resort to such measures, as completely altering the local landscape could easily draw the ire of the local powerhouses. But he was even less willing to keep waiting here with Jiang Wang. After all, this place was not in the Near Sea Archipelago, where his power base lay.
Waiting for too long could lead to unforeseen changes.
