Chapter 1080: The End of the Xiang Clan, Heading Out to Sea!

Kuaiji Commandery bordered the sea.

After parting with Yi Yi Xiaochuan, Hearing Xiang Liang and his group headed toward the seaside.

The old land of Wu and Yue had a highly developed fishing industry.

Now, although the two states of Wu and Yue were things of the past, some of the customs here had been preserved. Through his connections in Kuaiji, Hearing Xiang Liang and the others found some fishermen with extremely skilled boat-handling techniques. These fishermen made their living on the sea all day and were very familiar with the nearby islands.

At this moment, they were going to escort Hearing Xiang Liang and the others to an island very suitable for living.

On the island, there were also some people who were unwilling to submit to Qin rule hiding there. To survive, some of them had gradually become pirates on the sea.

Of course, Hearing Xiang Liang and the others were not afraid of so-called pirates; after all, they were from a military background, and they were extremely skilled at suppressing bandits.

At this moment, they were going to the island just to live for a few years.

Although he kept saying to Yi Yi Xiaochuan that Yushu was just a barbarian woman and there was no need to care about barbarian people, in the end, he was the one who chose to make the first concession. For this concession, he even gave up a lot.

This was not because Hearing Xiang Liang was moved by the relationship between Yi Yi Xiaochuan and Yushu, but simply because he cared about Yi Yi Xiaochuan.

The sea breeze blew gently.

Hearing Xiang Liang and the others stood by the sea, looking at the vast ocean ahead, watching their men move many weapons and supplies onto the ships one after another. They were somewhat lost; Chu was an inland country. After the destruction of Chu, although they had been hiding in Kuaiji, they had never been to the sea.

Seeing that everything had been moved and they were just waiting to board the ships to head to the island,

at this moment, teams of government soldiers suddenly appeared.

Someone's exclamation sounded: "Don't let them escape! The person in front is the wanted criminal Hearing Xiang Liang, the son of Xiang Yan of Chu! He escaped from the execution ground before!"

"Whoever can capture them will be heavily rewarded!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of Hearing Xiang Liang, Xiang Yu, Fan Zeng, and others who were preparing to board the ship changed drastically.

So, this was the disadvantage of leaving Kuaiji.

In Shanyin County of Kuaiji Commandery, with the protection of Governor Yin Tong, even as wanted criminals, they could walk in the bustling streets, arrogant and unrestrained. But after leaving the scope of Shanyin County, they needed to be careful.

After all, their arrest warrants had not been revoked.

This time, when going to the sea, they had thought that their movements might be exposed, leading to unnecessary trouble, so they had been as low-key as possible.

As a result, they hadn't expected that an accident would happen just before they were about to board the ship.

Facing the encirclement of the government soldiers, Hearing Xiang Liang appeared extremely calm.

"Board the ship quickly!"

The few of them immediately boarded the ship and prepared to leave.

However, the government soldiers naturally wouldn't allow Xiang Yu and the others to leave just like that. Because many people knew that this group of wanted criminals had extraordinary strength after Xiang Yu raided the execution ground and saved Hearing Xiang Liang, the number of people capturing Hearing Xiang Liang this time was slightly larger.

A great battle broke out.

The battle started quickly and ended just as quickly.

Even though Hearing Xiang Liang and the others had extraordinary martial arts, this was not a chaotic era, and the Qin Guo had not reached a demonic state. They hadn't taken advantage of the chaos in the world to establish their own foundation and rise against the trend.

At this moment, they were just a group of brutes with some martial arts skills.

Facing the encirclement of the well-equipped Qin army, they did kill some Qin soldiers at first, but this action made the Qin army even angrier, and they launched a fierce attack on them.

Although some people boarded the ship in the chaos, many were still left behind. Facing the arrows of the Qin army, their martial arts were of no use, and they were killed on the spot.

The next day, on the sea, on a raft, a figure was crawling. Suddenly, he spat out a mouthful of foul-smelling saliva; it was seawater he had accidentally swallowed.

The figure crawling on the raft suddenly opened his eyes as he spat out the seawater.

A painful expression appeared on his face: "Uncle, Mr. Fan..."

Yesterday afternoon, the encounter just before boarding the ship kept appearing in Xiang Yu's mind.

Because of Yi Yi Xiaochuan, they finally decided to go to sea and stay for a few years. As a result, they didn't expect that an accident would happen at the last moment, and a group of government soldiers suddenly appeared to encircle and kill them.

If it were ordinary government soldiers, Xiang Yu and the Xiang clan members wouldn't be afraid. Over these years of lying low, the Xiang clan had never forgotten the hatred of the destruction of Chu. Everyone had martial arts skills. But the elite level of this group of government soldiers was beyond their expectations.

They were well-equipped, numerous, and each had extraordinary strength.

Even though the ship was right in front of them, they didn't have the chance to board it.

In the end, under the encirclement and killing of the Qin army, they suffered heavy casualties. To protect him, his uncle was pierced through the heart by arrows and died.

Xiang Yu wanted to kill his way back to avenge his uncle, no matter what, he had to retrieve his uncle's body. As a result, Mr. Fan stopped him. Mr. Fan sacrificed his life to let him escape.

In the end, Xiang Yu boarded a ship and sailed away. The Qin army pursued from behind. Under the attack of the Qin army, the ship was destroyed. With the help of a raft after the ship was destroyed, Xiang Yu survived.

513

This was the depths of the sea, with no land or islands in front or behind, but Xiang Yu firmly believed he could live.

Because he had to live.

Only by living would there be hope to avenge his uncle, Mr. Fan, and the many members of the Xiang clan who had died.

When he was a boy, the words his uncle said in his ear echoed constantly in his ears.

In the past, he didn't take them to heart. Now, after his uncle, Mr. Fan, and others died, these words became clearer and clearer.

"Ying Zheng, Qin Guo, I, Xiang Yu, swear here that I will make you pay the price!!!"

Xiang Yu's voice echoed over the sea, then was covered by the sound of the waves. ===== CHAPTER 1082 =====
