Ke Ai de Xiao Yu

Chapter 40 Encountering the Storm

Boss Xiao asked, "Why? We haven't reached our destination yet?"

Captain Zhou also looked puzzled and said, "Kid, what are you talking about? Where else would we go fishing if not forward?"

Ye Feng didn't know how to answer them.

He just felt that the trident gave him a very strange feeling, and he couldn't explain why.

"Uh, I feel like the weather might change. How about we come back another day!" Ye Feng said.

Boss Xiao, however, smiled and said, "Don't worry! We checked the weather forecast when we came. It's sunny, calm, and there's nothing to worry about!"

Xiao Feifei also chimed in, "Ye Feng, what's wrong with you? Why are you suddenly so scared?"

Ye Feng was speechless. He genuinely felt that something was wrong ahead and was trying to warn everyone.

Captain Zhou also said, "Kid, is this your first time out at sea? It's normal to be nervous the first time. You'll get used to it after a few more trips!"

"Fine, fine! Whatever you say!" Ye Feng saw that he couldn't persuade them and had to give up.

After all, he only felt that something was wrong, but he didn't know what it was.

However, after they continued forward for about two or three minutes, the sky suddenly began to change. The originally sunny sky started to show dark clouds.

And the dark clouds gathered more and more, until the entire sky began to dim.

"Hmm? What's going on? Why has the weather changed?" Captain Zhou, who was sitting inside the cabin, suddenly ran out and looked at the sky.

At this moment, Boss Xiao and Xiao Feifei also ran out, looking at the rapidly darkening sky with panic.

"What's going on? We clearly checked the weather forecast, and it said it would be sunny all day!" Xiao Feifei said in disbelief.

Xiao Qinghai beside him said, "The sea conditions are unpredictable, and the weather forecast isn't always accurate. It looks like we need to turn back!"

Boom!

Suddenly, a violent thunderclap sounded from the sky, followed by a flash of lightning that streaked across their heads, startling everyone.

Xiao Feifei screamed and took a few steps back, almost falling.

Fortunately, Ye Feng reacted in time, grabbed her slender waist, and prevented her from falling.

"What are you doing? Don't think you can take advantage of me!" Xiao Feifei suddenly said.

Ye Feng was speechless. "I... I was just helping you because you were about to fall. You ungrateful wretch, biting the hand that feeds you!"

At this moment, the sky began to flash and thunder, and it started to rain. The strong wind howled incessantly. The once calm sea suddenly became turbulent, like a giant beast trying to swallow everything.

"We can't go on! Turn back quickly!" Boss Xiao shouted.

Captain Zhou, hearing this, was about to turn back, but the next second, his expression turned to horror.

Because a wave nearly two meters high was rushing towards them from not far away. It was moving so fast that they had no time to dodge. Finally, the giant wave hit the ship, causing the entire vessel to shake violently.

The people on board were thrown off balance and fell in a very messy manner.

Xiao Feifei, who was clinging to the ship's railing, was about to be thrown over the railing as the ship tilted sharply due to the impact of the giant wave.

Seeing this, Ye Feng quickly reached out and pulled Xiao Feifei back from the brink of falling.

However, before they could feel relieved, they suddenly saw an even larger wave approaching them from a distance. Its height was at least seven or eight meters.

And behind that giant wave, there were several more, one after another, each taller and more terrifying than the last, as if there was no end...

"We're finished! We've encountered a storm and giant waves!"

Boss Xiao was terrified at the sight, his face filled with regret.

He regretted not listening to Ye Feng. Now, encountering such giant waves, which might not be seen even once in a decade, he knew that everyone on the ship might be sacrificed.

After all, a seven or eight-meter wave crashing down would be too much for a fishing boat to withstand. Even if it didn't break, it would capsize.

What was even more terrifying was the countless, furiously surging waves behind them. They had no chance of survival.

As the giant waves drew closer, everyone's faces showed despair.

However, at this moment, Ye Feng stood on the deck, staring at the colossal waves, his brows furrowed, his expression somewhat ferocious. A golden trident pattern appeared on his forehead.

"It's over, it's over! Are we going to die here!" Captain Zhou despaired.

By now, the giant waves were less than ten meters away. Seeing how easily the waves could cover the top of the ship, everyone became even more desperate.

Just as the giant waves were about to crash onto the fishing boat, everyone closed their eyes in fear, preparing to meet their death.

At this critical moment, they didn't notice Ye Feng, who was staring intently at the terrifying waves, roaring in his heart, "Will of the sea, I, in the name of the Sea God, command you to calm down!"

As he spoke, he fully activated the Sea God's power within his dantian, his eyes bloodshot from the exertion. Finally, the trident pattern on his forehead emitted a dazzling golden light that flashed and disappeared.

The giant wave that was about to capsize their ship suddenly sank in front of them, with only a few splashes of water spraying onto everyone.

The turbulent sea also calmed down instantly, and the subsequent giant waves all vanished.

The fishing boat only swayed slightly before becoming stable, and then the entire world fell into silence.

Seeing this, Ye Feng couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, his face pale and exhausted. He slumped onto the deck.

After more than ten seconds, everyone still hadn't opened their eyes, seemingly believing they were all doomed and had kept their eyes tightly shut.

Seeing this, Ye Feng finally spoke, "It's okay now, the giant waves have subsided!"

Hearing Ye Feng's words, they slowly opened their eyes.

"What? The giant waves have subsided?"

"This... what's going on? Where are the giant waves?"

"Hey, the rain has stopped, and the dark clouds have dispersed. What's going on?"

Everyone looked puzzled, as if what had just happened had never occurred. Could it be that everyone present had hallucinated?

But they looked at each other and saw that everyone's clothes were wet, and they felt the coldness on their bodies, knowing that what had just happened was definitely not a dream.

No one knew exactly what had happened, which left everyone present stunned and standing in place.

"What are you all standing around for! Control the heading, we've drifted off course!" Ye Feng shouted from the deck.

Captain Zhou, seeing this, hurried to control the heading.

The others, meanwhile, hugged each other, grateful for their narrow escape.

"We clearly saw a raging storm and towering waves at sea just now, how did they disappear all of a sudden? This is too strange!" Boss Xiao said in shock after recovering from his daze.

At this moment, Captain Zhou said, "It must be the protection of the Sea God..."
