Chapter 854: Various Forces Enter the Game!

The sea area, a steamship was speeding at full throttle...

The steamship provided by the General's Mansion was evidently specially selected for its speed, which was somewhat faster than the average steamship.

By now, less than an hour after ChuanMingmeichi and Dong Tian Yizhi's group had entered Ancestor Fu's Sanctuary, the steamship beneath Chen Tang's feet was only two hours' sailing distance from Tianqi Island, having gained a considerable lead.

The seascape at dawn was extremely beautiful, with Chen Tang, Yamada Keiko, Nangong Aoyue, and Qiao Hai now standing on the deck, looking into the distance.

But the group had no mood to appreciate the seaside sunrise; their gazes seemed to stretch the long distance, reaching toward the still unseen Tianqi Island.

Further back, on the sea about an hour's sailing distance away, another steamship was also speeding at full throttle, closing the gap fiercely.
