Every passing minute and second was agony for everyone!
They could no longer see the murder scene behind them; endless darkness filled their anxious sight as the entire fleet sailed into the vast unknown.
They had just sighted the edge of the green bubble layer when everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
A scream!
"Behind us, it's coming, it's coming…" Lookout Wang Donglai yelled, and then, all the Ghost Ships spotted the dark shadow chasing them.
It made no attempt to hide, stirring such obvious turmoil.
Its huge size and striking spectral transformations disturbed the darkness behind, creating clear ripples; it wasn't moving fast, far from using its full strength, yet it was enough to chase down this prey.
Leisurely, as if all the Ghost Ships were its meal on a plate.
There was no time to form ranks, it seemed their only option was to scatter and flee!
