The crew on both the front and back ships stood on the deck, watching this harrowing scene.
They were all worried for Xiang Ying and Jie Chen.
Scar face couldn't find Xiang Ying, and instead heard that she had jumped into the water to repair the second ship's cabin.
He was so scared that he ran to the stern, where a crowd had already gathered.
The soldiers discussed among themselves—
"Why would she do that? To help us? Or to save their own people from Xizhou?"
"I don't know... But what can a woman do anyway? Don't let Jie Jianjun also lose his life over this!"
Scar face immediately retorted angrily, "What about a woman? Weren't you born of a woman?"
"When something happens, a woman dares to show such courage, while you guys on the deck are nothing but cowards!"
"The second ship not only carries Xizhou's prisoners but also our own brothers!"
With that, he turned and walked away.
Leaving the soldiers ashamedly looking at each other, eventually bowing their heads.
