1830 Benefiting from Their Glory

Afterwards, the captain and his crew used the same method to haul Tie Feng from the water.

Tie Feng had fainted, but it was more likely out of fear. Besides getting bitten twice on his arm, his other injuries were minor.

This was the complete opposite of Zhang Wudan whose left leg had been completely bitten off. The wound on his right leg was also very serious, and it looked like it could only be amputated.

Everybody was apprehensive as they peeked at Qiao Mu's party.

These young people looked gentle and refined, yet who knew they would turn so cruel and savage once they made a move?

Qiao Mu walked to the edge of the ship and skimmed the water. She then tossed another pill into the water.

Soon, those sharks that had congregated into a school also started dispersing slowly. The captain let out a long sigh of relief. However, he was full of bewilderment when looking at Qiao Mu.

Meanwhile, Qiao Mu turned to walk toward the cabin.

The captain hastily called after her with an obsequious smile. "Miss, please wait. Later, I will prepare three small cabins for you all, free of charge. I hope you will enjoy the more comfortable accommodations."

Qiao Mu raised an eyebrow but left without saying anything.

However, Qi Xuanxuan swept him a look before saying with a smile, "Then thanks for the trouble."

This captain was probably spooked by the ruckus they had made.

In truth, they didn't care whether they stayed in the large or the small cabin. In any case, they would reach their destination in seven to eight days. It simply didn't matter that this leg of their journey ended up being a bit more tiring.

Yet the captain did not think this way. After this event, the captain wished for nothing more than to worship Qiao Mu's group like his ancestors.

Hence, Qiao Mu and the rest passed the remaining days peacefully.

The five mentors also benefited from their students' glory, getting two aristocrat cabins to share. Not only did they not need to crowd inside the large cabin with other people, but most importantly, they did not need to pay for the upgrade. Only fools would reject such an offer.

Qiao Mu and Xuanxuan naturally stayed in the same room.

When Qiao Mu looked up at Xuanxuan, she saw the latter walking inside with two apples.

"Hey." Qi Xuanxuan walked over with a smile and plopped down beside Qiao Mu. "I just heard, that Young Sir Zhang from Hongyuan Island has been refusing to get his leg amputated for several days. But his leg has been festering so much that he might die if this continues, so he finally agreed today."

"When I passed by just now, I heard that dumb*ss screaming and shouting inside."

Qiao Mu nodded tranquilly as she leafed through her book.

If that Zhang Wudan had not insisted on causing her trouble by relying on his clan's clout, she wouldn't even look him in the eye.

Qi Xuanxuan nimbly peeled an apple and handed it to Qiao Mu. After peeling the other one, she munched on it.

It was crisp and sweet. Being a foodie, Qi Xuanxuan shone with happiness.

Qiao Mu glanced at her speechlessly before lowering her head and flipping the page. "Should we first eat our fill at a restaurant when we get to Polan Prefecture?"

"Yes, yes." The foodie's mood immediately brightened, sweeping away the listlessness from the past few days.

A nearly imperceptible smile surfaced on Qiao Mu's lips. She set down her book and said, "Let's go. Come out with me for fresh air."

"Okay, okay. Let's go out for a stroll together. Frankly speaking, it's unbearable having to hole up in this cabin all day long."
