Something strange happened in the Seven-Day Village.
The Island Master and others waited outside. Though they were somewhat worried, it was their duty, and they couldnât move from their post.
Jing Fengyun, Mi Lingyue, and three others were all there.
They all watched the exit to see if Smiling San Sheng would come out of the village.
They all kept a distance from each other and silently waited.
Two figures emerged from the exit. They were walking side by side. This surprised everyone.
It was Smiling San Sheng.
He appeared scholarly. He was fanning himself. The words, âUnrivaled in the Worldâ flashed on his fan.
At first, they thought of going up to greet him, but without any warning, he and the woman with him disappeared.
He had nodded briskly before he vanished. It was a farewell.
âHow did he disappear?â the young woman asked.
Everyone had the same question in their mind.
It was at that moment that Li realized Smiling San Sheng was not someone he could afford to offend.
At Nine Falling Island, two figures appeared among the mountains.
One looked like a scholar, and the other was a woman in a red and white gown.
As soon as they appeared, Jiang Hao let go of her hand.
At that moment, the golden ring flew to his wrist.
He planned to go to Ancient Spirit Island first and then return to Chaos Stone Island.
After all, he still needed to find Ran Hui and ask him if he and his wife had made their choice.
With a golden ring buried on the island, it would be convenient.
He would retrieve it before returning. The ring was imbued with Hong Yuyeâs power, so he didnât have to worry about being discovered.
There was no need to rush.
However, he didnât know if Ran Hui could wait for him. Perhaps they would. The commotion on the ship was so great that no one would dare to harm them.
Moreover, the person who had provided them with the ship tickets surely had made arrangements for them.
They must have settled down somewhere on the island.
At the harbor town, Jiang Hao found the person with the highest cultivation realm in charge. She was a woman with a divine cultivation realm.
âSenior,â said the woman politely.
âIs Ancient Spirit Island far from here?â Jiang Hao asked.
When he arrived, he paid attention to the Nine Nether, and with the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl, there hadnât been any trouble.
As soon as he left the Chaos Stone Island, it became more active.
It seemed that the seal needed to be made stronger.
âItâs some distance away,â said the woman as she handed over a map. Jiang Hao wasnât a stingy person, so he let the woman name her price.
She kindly offered it for ten spirit stones.
âYour price is quite fair, young friend,â said Jiang Hao as he accepted it. However. he didnât take the man with him. He needed to check its contents
first. With his current wealth of 130,000 spirit stones, ten more wouldnât hurt.
âBy the way, do you have September Spring Tea here?â Jiang Hao asked.
The woman broke into a cold sweat. âIâm sorry to disappoint you, but we donât have such expensive tea here.â
Jiang Hao nodded and left.
Seven days later, Jiang Hao stood on the sea and looked at the massive island shrouded in mist. He let out a sigh of relief.
They had finally arrived.
The journey had been quite troublesome.
He had used the Light and Dust Technique to the extreme. His figure could often be seen on the sea surface.
The path shown on the map was considered safe. âThis island is larger than Chaos Stone Island.â
They arrived at the shore and stood in front of a city.
âAncient Wind City⌠Madam Gongâs mansion is here,â Jiang Hao said. Hong Yuye wasnât in a hurry. âShe gave you her entire mansion?â
âMore or less.â Jiang Hao nodded.
âLetâs go in and take a look,â Hong Yuye said.
Jiang Hao began queuing up to enter the city.
Unlike other places, the security here seemed particularly strict.
âMr. Zhu, why are you queuing up?
Outside Ancient Wind City, Zhu Shen walked calmly along the road.
He was accompanied by a young man dressed in luxurious attire. It indicated a good social status.
âI just happen to be free, Young Master Chen.â Zhu Shen smiled.
âHaha, Iâve embarrassed myself. My father told me to learn from you,â the young man said sincerely.
Zhu Shen shook his head. âThe son of the Blood Dragon Sectâs Sect Master is of an unattainable status. I canât possibly teach him anything important.â
Chen Zhanzhi shook his head. âMr. Zhu, you must be joking. Who here doesnât know that you are the favorite disciple of the Sixth Master and also in charge of the Sixth Hall? If such a person canât teach me, then who possibly can?â âHmm?â Zhu Shen walked to the back of the line and frowned slightly. He saw the back of the man in front of him. He seemed familiar.
âDo you know him, Mr. Zhu?â Chen Zhanzhi was puzzled.
âI advise you not to say or do anything offensive,â Zhu Shen said.
However, he felt that he might have been mistaken. He hesitated. âHas the ship from Chaos Stone Island arrived?â
âNo,â said Chen Zhanzhi confidently. âIt will take some time. Probably about half a month.â
âThen, I must be mistaken,â Zhu Shen said softly.
However, as he got closer, he felt more and more like it wasnât a mistake.
After learning about Smiling San Sheng, he put in a lot of effort to investigate the person. He had already learned about the personâs appearance.
In terms of appearance and posture, the person in front was a perfect match.
After hesitating a while longer, he took a step forward. âApologies for bothering you, fellow disciple.â
Jiang Hao was observing the figure in front of him. She looked elegant and classy.
However, every time he thought about her, the image of her taking a bath would flash in his mind.
He brushed the thoughts off. If he was discovered, it would be a disaster.
Suddenly, he heard someone call him from behind.
He turned around to see a young man behind him. He had a restrained aura and a brilliance in his eyes.
He was very powerful.
However, the cultivation realm he displayed was only at the early stage of the Return to Void Realm.
âDid you call me, fellow disciple?â Jiang Hao was calm.
âI am Zhu Shen. I thought I knew you from somewhere, so I came to introduce myself,â said Zhu Shen politely.
âPeople call me Smiling San Sheng,â Jiang Hao said calmly as he opened his fan.
âSmiling San Sheng?â Chen Zhanzhi was surprised. He had heard of this name from the ship.
But it didnât make sense. The ship hadnât left the island yet, so how could Smiling San Sheng be here?
âIs he an imposter?â
âWhat brings you here, fellow disciple? I know this place fairly well,â said Zhu
Shen.
âIâm looking for Madam Gongâs mansion.â Jiang Hao fanned himself.
âMadam Gongâs mansion?â Chen Zhanzhi was surprised.
âThat place is not easy to enter. Even though Madam Gong is no longer the Third Master of the Heavenly Tower, she is still a very powerful person. Her mansion is rumored to hide many treasures. Even though no one guards it, no one has dared to enter it,â he said.
âWeâre next,â said a voice from the front.
Jiang Hao nodded and asked Zhu Shen. âDo you know where it is?â
âNaturally, I do.â Zhu Shen nodded with a smile. âI will lead the way for you..â
