Within seconds, the gazes that looked at Yang Dingtian were filled with reverence, as if they had just seen a celestial body.

Of course, what Yang Dingtian had manufactured was gunpowder.

Charcoal could be found anywhere, and in this world, niter, which was called white flint, was a lot more powerful than the earth’s niter.

In this world, sulfur could be replaced by sulfuric crystal stones, and they were a lot more potent than sulfur as well.

Therefore, the explosives that were created were several times stronger than the gunpowder created on earth.

Inside each silk package, there were about five to ten kilograms of gunpowder. Naturally, the explosion was extremely astonishing.

To prevent misfire, Yang Dingtian had separated all the Inferno Island fleet far apart. Otherwise, if a package of gunpowder were to explode while it was on the ship, the aftermath would have been severe.

And to keep it a secret, Yang Dingtian got Ling Wu to prepare dozens of stuff personally. However, he had only used three of them. Ultimately, the creation of the gunpowder compound was done by Yang Dingtian alone. As for placing the gunpowder package into the silk package and oil paper, it was all done with the assistance of the Black Blood Cavalry brothers.

****************************

Qin Huaiju was immediately rendered stupefied when he saw the scene from the backlines. Never had he imagined there would be such a conclusion.

Just dozens of silk packages had actually caused him to lose over 20 ships as well as several hundreds of pirates.

Furthermore, the remaining pirates had turned ashen due to fright. Some of them had even knelt down and kowtowed with their lives because they thought that what happened a moment ago was done by the thunder god.

“Don’t tell me I have to retreat like this?” Qin Huaiju muttered in his heart, “No, I will not resign myself to this. I have become an overlord from an illegitimate child that was bullied by everyone. I must not admit defeat.”

Afterward, he yelled out, “Charge forward, charge forward! The distance between us is only two miles apart. Once we charge over, they would be dead. They only had dozens of those heavenly thunders. They had already finished using all of it.”

Along with the instructions being passed down, those fearless pirate leaders immediately sailed the ship with all their might as they charged towards the Inferno Island fleet.

All of the pirate ships had rushed over.

This Qin Huaiju truly possessed a terrifying gambling ability!

Yang Dingtian smiled coldly. “I was just worried that you would not rush over.”

“Release…” Yang Dingtian commanded.

Immediately, dozens of silk explosives were thrown out by the catapults.

“Boom, Boom, Boom…”

There was another round of world-shaking explosions.

Countless pirates died horribly, and dozens of ships had suddenly torn apart.

“Release…”

“Release…”

“Release…”

Along with Yang Dingtian’s orders, explosive packages were being hurled out wave after wave.

Countless world-shaking explosions and blaze were being released.

The pirate ships that numbered more than a hundred had practically been completely destroyed in the two to three miles distance as they rushed over.

Only three to four ships had managed to break into the Inferno Island fleet. However, this was purely done by luck. The pirates on the ship had completely been frightened to the point that their soul had broken down as they excreted themselves. Before they even got near, over a hundred Black Blood Cavalry brothers pounced over impatiently as they massacred the pirates on the ship.

In a span of 30 minutes, all of the pirates had been completely wiped out.

There was only one ship remaining that was ten miles away. That was Qin Huaiju’s flagship!

A moment ago, he seemed as if he had been struck by lightning when he saw that the pirate ships were being destroyed one after another, and countless of his subordinates had died horribly. At the start, it felt like his heart was bleeding. However, when it was near the end, he had turned numb from the pain.

This was a part of his foundation. He was nothing in the Northwest Qin City. Even Qin Huaiyu’s servant didn’t look at him in the eye. Over there, his life was like a dog.

After which, when Qin Huaiyu proposed to impersonate the Black Blood Cavalry to ruin Yang Dingtian’s reputation, no one in the Northwest Qin City was willing to accept this assignment because this was an utter dirty job. Furthermore, it was a dirty job that one wouldn’t be freed from. It was like a urine pot that could be replaced anytime. It was that sort of dirty job.

However, Qin Huaiju accepted it. Afterward, he took over a group of bullies and losers from the Northwest Qin City as he set up a team of several hundred men. After half a year, it grew stronger over time as it had grown to thousands of people.

Over here, he felt that his life had been started afresh. After that, it rose to the feeling of as if he had become the emperor.

He was the emperor of the sea region that spanned over a thousand miles. He could kill whoever he wished to and would be able to sleep with any woman he wanted.

In this half a year, he had no idea how many people he killed or how many women had he defiled.

He was envious and hated Yang Dingtian because Yang Dingtian was just a nobody, yet he could become Dongfang Niemie’s disciple and Ximen Wuya’s son-in-law. Most importantly, he actually obtained Ximen Yanyan.

He had met Ximen Yanyan before. She was an astonishing beauty. However, he had never dared to dream of obtaining Ximen Yanyan. He had a lot of women before, but they weren’t even comparable to one of Ximen Yanyan’s fingers even after adding all of them up together.

However, Yang Dingtian was actually able to obtain Ximen Yanyan. Why? How? Therefore, he felt a particular kind of satisfaction when he impersonated Yang Dingtian to do evil.

Of course, he was also somewhat grateful for Yang Dingtian deep within his heart because Yang Dingtian had beaten Qin Shaobai to a cripple. He was just purely envious of Yang Dingtian, but the hatred he had for Qin Shaobai was entirely in his bones. In the Northwest Qin City, Qin Shaobai was only second to Qin Huaiyu’s pet. Usually when Qin Huaiyu bumped into Qin Huaiju, he would still display the most basic courtesy towards him. But when Qin Shaobai bumped into him, it was as if he had deemed him as a pig or dog.

***********************************

But now, he was filled with inexhaustible hatred towards the person that had destroyed everything before him. It was to the point that it had exceeded the hatred he had for Qin Shaobai.

He had no idea who this person was. However, he knew that this person was certainly someone not from Inferno Island. If Inferno Island had such genius, it wouldn’t have declined to such an extent.

Endless hatred had engulfed his heart, and endless flames were blazing crazily.

“Who, who is the one who destroyed my Qin Huaiju’s foundation. I’m going to dismember you into thousands of pieces…”

Suddenly, he howled out. He had even forgotten to impersonate Yang Dingtian anymore under his extreme wrath.

He then gave an insane command for the big ship to charge towards the Inferno Island fleet.

At the start, how could those pirates that had been scared stiff dared to charge over? Wouldn’t it be bringing about their own destruction?

Qin Huaiju immediately flew into a rage. He raised his sword and started a massacre on his ship.

Immediately, dozens to a hundred people had died horribly under his sword while the rest of them jumped into the sea to flee for their lives.

Suddenly, the big ship was only left with Qin Huaiju alone as the ship swirled around the sea.

Qin Huaiju had a special trait. He was afraid of water.

That’s right. Although he was a Martial Mystic expert, he was still afraid of water. Because of the time, when he was five years old, his mother had brought him to meet his biological father for the first time, which also happened to be the lord of Northwest Qin City.

Instead of being loved, the Qin City Lord had grabbed him and thrown him into the pond to drown because his mother was a shameful woman.

Of course, he didn’t die and was saved by the Qin City Lord’s wife. However, after experiencing the near-death experience in the pond as well as seeing his mother being thrown down to her death from the upper floors, he became afraid of water since then. He wouldn’t even dare to go inside a bathtub.

Even though he was afraid of water, he still accepted the task of impersonating Yang Dingtian and became the pirate chief.

However, he had spent all of his time inside the base and had never head out to sea personally.

Today, he thought that it would be a complete massacre of the other side for this great war with Inferno Island. He had only followed out to the sea because his mood was great. But unexpectedly, he ended up with a not-so-desirable conclusion.

At this moment, he was the only person remaining after all his killings, and he wouldn’t be able to sail the ship alone.

Immediately, he was trapped by the spins of the ship alone and could only yell for help.

When Yang Dingtian saw this, he sneered and said, “Surround him!”

Suddenly, dozens of ships rushed towards Qin Huaiju’s ship and surrounded it with a semicircle formation.

“Release…” Yang Dingtian gave his orders suddenly.

All the catapult on the ships resonated as they hurled dozens of explosive packages over like heavy rain.

Instantly, that spinning ship was completely surrounded by dozens of explosive packages.

“Boom…”

“Boom…”

“Boom…”

A series of world-shaking explosions resonated out as countless blazes were ignited on the surface of the sea.

That big ship was like a toy as it was being torn to shreds immediately. Countless fragments flew out everywhere!

“Release…”

“Release…”

“Release…”

Although that big ship had already been engulfed by the raging flames and had been completely damaged, Yang Dingtian still gave the command to continue hurling the explosive packages.

Because there were still a lot of explosive packages not used, this kind of potential self-harming weapon must not be kept.

Therefore, the catapult kept on hurling tirelessly. The surrounding surface of the sea around the big ship was filled with raging flames, making it look extremely stunning.

After exploding for over a dozen minutes, Yang Dingtian gave the command to stop, leaving behind dozens of explosive packages where he would look after them himself. He might possibly need it when he would launch an attack at Black Blood Island.

Meanwhile, the big ship could no longer be seen on the surface of the sea while logs of wood fragments floated around. It was a complete mess.

As for Qin Huaiju, his figure could no longer be seen!

************************************

“Hurray!!!”

Immediately, everyone cheered crazily!

They won. Previously, they had never thought of winning. But unexpectedly, not only had they won, it was done without any difficulties. There was practically no casualty on their side.

“Bang…”

It was at this moment, a ship ahead suddenly exploded.

The whole ship had exploded out abruptly. The warriors on the ship flew to the sky as their blood splattered out.

Immediately after, a figure that was covered in blood shot out from the sea suddenly. He held a sharp sword in hand and charged towards the fleet like lightning as he slaughtered frenziedly.

It was Qin Huaiju. During the explosion of the explosive packages, he had finally overcome the fear he had for seawater. He suddenly jumped down to the sea and dived down to the seabed to avoid being injured from the raging flame.

He thought that he was about to die the instant he had jumped into the sea because even when he was in the bathtub, he felt that he was about to suffocate. But unexpectedly, the instant he jumped into the sea, the phobia he had for water had instantly vanished without a trace and was substituted by the inexhaustible rage.

He then charged towards the Inferno Island fleet from under the water.

He wanted to rely on himself and killed all of his enemies. After which, he would rely on himself and made a comeback as he built an even stronger foundation.
