Chapter 1158 Mirage Island (1)
Yun Lintian took a deep look at Yang Chen and said. “Since you have decided it. Work hard. We need you in the upcoming battle.”
“I will try my best.” Yang Chen said solemnly.
After exchanging a few words, Yun Lintian left Yang Chen with Divine Phoenix and went out. He was preparing to visit Mirage Island and then the Golden Mountain Ruins.
During this period, Shen Mingjun and his wife stayed in the Divine Phoenix City most of the time. π£π¦π₯π―π°π£π¦π.π°π³π¨
Seeing Yun Lintian coming, Qin Mei greeted him with a warm smile. “You’re here. Have you eaten yet?”
Yun Lintian was speechless by her enthusiasm. He smiled and replied. “Thank you, aunty. I already had lunchβ¦ Uncle, Aunty, my business here is done, and I plan to leave now. Do you want to leave together?”
“Let’s go.” Shen Mingjun had no objection. He couldn’t wait to return to Mirage Island right away.
On the side, Qin Mei looked at her husband in dissatisfaction but didn’t say anything.
“Alright. We will leave now.” Yun Lintian contacted Yun Lingwei to bring the skyship over, and everyone quickly boarded it, setting off to Mirage Island.
“Our Mirage Island isn’t far away from the Southern Continent. We should reach there in two or three hours with this speed.” Inside the lounge, Shen Mingjun said. “However, it needs a special method to go there.”
After saying this, he took a small compass made with a strange grey-colored jade and handed it to Yun Lintian. “You can give this to the pilot.”
Yun Lintian looked at the compass briefly and saw the arrow point in one direction. He then handed it to a disciple nearby, telling her to take it to Yun Lingwei.
“I have never been there before, but I heard that the scenery on the island is very beautiful.” Nantian Fengyu said while eating a cheesecake. Since she was going to the Golden Mountain ruins with Yun Lintian later, she naturally came along.
“It is indeed beautiful. Moreover, there are a lot of delicacies. I will bring everyone to see them.” Qin Mei said with a smile.
Meanwhile, Shen Liqiu looked at the scene in a complicated mood. She had vowed that she would never return to Mirage Island again, and here she was on the ship heading back home.
Qin Mei seemed to notice this. She grabbed her daughter’s hands and asked. “Why? Are you feeling uncomfortable? Don’t worry. No one will force you to do anything this time.”
“Mhm.” Shen Liqiu responded with a low hum while glancing at her father, who didn’t seem to care about her.
Qin Mei said further. “You don’t know that your Second Aunt has been worrying about you all this time. She has even cut ties with your father. You should visit her later.”
“Really?” Shen Liqiu was surprised.
Her second aunt, Shen Shuchun, was the one who doted on her the most since she was young. Shen Liqiu remembered that she fought hard in order to object to the marriage between her and Lei Jun. She didn’t expect her to go to this extent.
Shen Liqiu glanced at her father and said coldly. “Did you treat her badly during this period?”
Shen Mingjun said indifferently. “You should know her more than me. Do you think I can do anything to her?”
“That’s good to hear.” Shen Liqiu pursed her lips and stopped talking with him.
“Headmaster, there’s something wrong below. I think you should take a look at it.” A disciple suddenly walked over and said.
Yun Lintian’s brows raised slightly. He got up and went to the deck, followed by everyone.
When they looked at the sea below, their expressions immediately turned solemn. Normally, the Endless Sea’s surface was a deep blue color, but now it had become deadly black, filling with a death aura.
“It’s faster than I thought.” Yun Lintian frowned deeply. He thought that it would take around a year to reach this point. Obviously, the Poison Valley was working hard to prepare for the return of their leader.
“With this, people cannot travel by sea anymore. Everyone will be locked down on their continents. Unless the top forces jointly open the grand teleporting formation.” Han Bingling said with a serious expression.
Once the transportation stopped, everything would slowly crumble. Materials and resources would be in shortage and might cause riots all over the place. At that time, people would start to rob and kill each other more than before. It could be said this move from Poison Valley was very effective.
Shen Mingjun’s brows knitted together. Mirage Island might be self-sufficient, but it couldn’t deny that it still needed to import a lot of outside resources to strengthen itself. This would affect the island significantly.
He thought for a moment and turned to Yun Lintian. “Can we set up a grand teleporting formation between the island and the other continents?”
Yun Lintian naturally understood the problem the island would face. He agreed readily. “There’s no problem with it. However, as far as I know, Mirage Island’s strongest point is how it is isolated from the outside world. If we set up the formation, it may lead to a disaster later. Are you sure you want to do it, Uncle Shen?”
Although the grand teleporting formation would be set up in secret, it couldn’t deny there was a chance to be discovered. If that happened, anyone could use it to reach the island. The worst scenario was that Poison Valley used it to invade the island. It would easily deal a fatal blow to the Shen Clan.
“Risks and opportunities are always coexisting. If I choose to stand by and do nothing, the entire island will gradually decline one day. Moreover, my Shen Clan and the Poison Valley cannot live under the same sky. They will definitely come for us, no matter what.” Shen Mingjun replied calmly.
Yun Lintian nodded slowly and expressed his thoughts. “How about this? We will set up only one formation that leads to the Northern Continent. Then you can go to the other continents through the formation there. With this, your risk will be reduced a lot. It’s much better than setting up a few formations.”
Shen Mingjun took a deep look at Yun Lintian and said. “Thank you.”
