The hardness of her teeth and the pain that almost knocked her teeth out proved to Kasumi Akiko that this was indeed a real stone.
Kasumi Akiko woke up from a dream when she heard Liao Zixuan’s voice. She quickly followed behind him and the two of them left Kondo Naosuke’s secret room.
After they left, the pressure on the young military official who was still holding on a moment ago finally lessened. He bent his back a little and let out a few long breaths.
After that, Kondo Naosuke did the same thing as Kasumi Akiko. Even as the owner of the ruler, he became suspicious. However, the result was the same. He used all his strength, but he did not see any movement from the ruler.
“Sigh…”
This sigh could be because he was unwilling to accept the blow to his strength, or it could also be because he felt a little heartache for his broken ruler. This was a masterpiece that he had imported from Gui Li.
Speaking of Gui Li…
The news of the Astorokis ‘return was huge. As a high-ranking official of the Grand Fudge, Kondo Naosuke naturally paid special attention to it and participated in the investigation. He knew a lot of information.
He seemed to have seen a document that was to be handed over to the Palace Minister. It said that the “Qilin Pavilion”, one of the five elements of Gui Li, attached great importance to the Astorokis’s disaster. It even reached the point of sending a diplomatic envoy.
At first, the young military official suspected that there was some big shot on the ship who had returned. However, based on today’s return trip, other than a merchant, there seemed to be no other people who had returned…
No! Wait a minute!
Suddenly, an idea flashed across Kondo Naosuke’s mind.
The Gui Li people and the people of the Thousand Islands looked very similar, and it was impossible to tell them apart just by looking at their appearances. Could it be that Senior White, who had suddenly appeared, was also a passenger on the Astorokis?
If he calculated the time, it just happened to be right!
Moreover…
Kondo Naosuke quickly found a document of the passengers on the ship that he had been investigating. As expected, the person with Lord Bai was one of them.
No wonder…
Kondo Naosuke suddenly felt that he had seen a corner of the fog.
According to the society, the Astorokis had encountered the legendary deep-sea serpent, but now it had miraculously returned safely…That’s right! Other than Senior White, Naoto Naosuke couldn’t find any other reason to get close.
So… The person that the Qilin Pavilion was really looking for was Senior White?
To be able to make Gui Li Wuxing pay so much attention to him, not hesitating to engage in international diplomacy, coupled with his terrifying strength, Kondo Naosuke’s eyes lit up! Two words flashed across his mind!
This time, it was no longer a ‘monster’, but…
Immortals!
He had long heard of the immortals of Gui Li. Legend had it that some could fly into the sky and some could control swords. The immortals were extremely mysterious and their cultivation techniques were unique in the world. They were divided into many realms. He did not expect that he would be able to witness it with his own eyes today…
Ah! Damn it!
At first, he had thought of Senior White as a monster!
It was too rude! After this matter is over, I must apologize again!
Kondo Naosuke was extremely angry and regretful.
After some brainstorming, Liao Zixuan’s loyalty to the young military official was completely maxed out. Kondo Naosuke no longer had any concerns. After pondering for a moment, he quickly walked out of the secret room.
Three days…
Although he was nervous, he had secretly transferred a group of soldiers to White Plume Island in the name of changing positions. This way, it was not easy to be discovered, but…
I don’t care anymore, let’s fight!
Kondo Naosuke was ready to give it his all. He could tell that Liao Zixuan’s attitude was that the sooner the better. He would do it to the end and not be afraid of being exposed. He was prepared to prepare the ship now and inform the soldiers, and then tomorrow night…
He directly led his troops and traveled by boat overnight!
They could either take down the enemy’s stronghold in one fell swoop, or…The next morning, a large number of soldiers were found missing and arrested.
Originally, he had planned to leave without returning, and his selfish motives were even greater. His main goal was to rescue Kaho and send her out of the Thousand Islands.
But now…
Perhaps, he could really…Change the Thousand Islands!
“You heard the conversation in the room. I’m going to White Wing Island soon.
I can’t take you with me because the method is very special. ”
After coming out of the Great Fuxing Hall, Liao Zixuan said goodbye to Xia Qiuzi beside him.
He thought that it would take a lot of persuasion, but unexpectedly, Kasumiakko obediently nodded.
“Alright, Bai Xian…Senior White, even if you were to take me there, White Feather Island would still take more than half a day by boat. I still have relatives waiting for me at the Moon Abyss Island, so I can’t go too far.
After such a big accident happened on the Astorokis, it was not easy for them to get off the ship. It turned out that someone at home missed them and did not hurry home to report their safety. Instead, they were running around with him…
Xia Qiuzi also understood what Liao Zixuan meant. She scratched her head awkwardly and explained,
“Senior White, it’s fine. My sister is the only one at home, and she’s the one who makes fireworks. It’s going to be the Divine Wizard election soon, so she’s probably busy every day. It’s fine if I go back a little late!”
Unfortunately, after his explanation, he only received a glare from Liao Zixuan.
“Then, then I’ll leave! I’m going home now! “Xia Qiuzi shrunk her neck and quickly waved goodbye before turning around to leave.
However, before she left, she still mustered up her courage and said to Liao Zixuan very seriously,
“Senior White! I sincerely wish you all the best in martial arts! I hope that the real-life model of this novel can have a perfect ending, so… So I will wait for the official news!
Xia Qiuzi ran away after she finished speaking, while Liao Zixuan shook his head. To have a recorder…lt wasn’t that bad. After the Players descended, it could be considered as a means of publicity?
Liao Zixuan seemed to understand why the snake would retain some of Kasumi Akiko’s memories about the ” cycle “.
Then…
Liao Zixuan returned to his wolf cub mentality and sent a telepathic message to Vivian. Although White Plume Island was half a day away from Moon Abyss Island, just as Kasumiko had said, it was still a long boat ride.
However, at this distance, the little girl could still teleport her Summoned Beast back to her side.
This was also a special method mentioned by Liao Zixuan.
Soon, he established contact with Vivian, which showed the efficiency of Liao Zixuan’s decision. After he was done, the little girl arrived at White-feathered Island by boat.
With a flash of white light, the wolf cub’s figure disappeared on the spot.
When he reappeared…
The first thing that caught the wolf cub’s attention was the thick smell of herbs. When the wolf cub opened its eyes, it found itself in a small straw hut.
“I’m sorry, Xiao Hei. Wait a moment. I’m a little busy here…”
In the hut, Vivian did not look at her cub immediately, which was rare. Instead, she was in a room that should be similar to a kitchen, focusing on cooking a clay pot.
Steam was rising from the clay pot. The thick medicinal smell that the wolf cubs had smelled earlier came from here.
Fortunately, the astrological girl, Mei Ji, was also in the room, acting as a temporary wolf crawl. After she picked up the wolf cub, she whispered into his ear and explained.
“Blackie, we found a village nearby according to the general location on the map of White Plume Island. Vivian said that she wanted to get some information, but she found that many people in the village were sick.
Strange illness…
That’s right! In the performance of the candidate for the Divine Wizard, the man who rushed onto the stage seemed to be a resident of White Plume Island. He had also mentioned the strange disease.
The wolf cub frowned. Judging from Vivian and Maggie’s current state, the illness might not be so simple.
After that, Vivian wiped the sweat off her forehead. After the herbs were finally cooked, she said to the wolf cubs worriedly,”
“Xiao Hei, do you still remember that when we met in the forest, I was picking herbs to treat my brother?”
coma De…
Vivian nodded at the wolf cub’s thoughtful look.
“The illness in this village is very similar to my brother’s symptoms at that time, so I suspect that it’s also…Fallen Abyss!”
