If others ran into wards or tactical formations, they would worry about how to
crack them.
Jiang Chen seldom had such worries. He would try to interpret the deployer’s
way of thinking and technique.
He saw what was odd about the stone gate. The ward had been deployed
only five years ago, but the deployer intentionally made it look older.
Unfortunately, the other pirates didn’t believe him.
Then everyone looked towards Fan Tianyin.
They wondered what her expression was behind the veil, but her knitted
brows had explained she was hesitating.

I will never give up the treasures just because of what this guy said!
Tu
Tiandao made his attitude clear.
Before interest, he was even less afraid of Fan Tianyin.

Jiang Chen, just open it,
said Fan Tianyin.
Jiang Chen wasn’t surprised. He just shook his head gently.

Jiang Chen would never lie to you!
Tang Shiya expressed her support for
Jiang Chen right away.
However, she lowered her head as soon as Fan Tianyin threw her a glance.
She didn’t dare look into the latter’s eyes.

I can open it, but I won’t go inside,
Jiang Chen said.

Then you won’t have a share of the treasures.
Thinking he was playing
another trick, Tu Tiandao turned black.

How will you be able to share the treasures if there is none.

Laughing coldly, Jiang Chen didn’t want to argue with them. He said,
I’ll open
the gate of the ward for you. Then I’ll bid my farewell.


Go back to the Sea Conqueror to wait for us. I’ll give you the control of the
ship,
Fan Tianyin said.
Tang Shiya pulled Jiang Chen’s clothes from behind before he could respond.
She wanted him to agree.
At the same time, she said,
Even though you don’t believe Jiang Chen, I
believe him.

Jiang Chen was still hesitating, not about whether to go into the gate, but
whether to talk Fan Tianyin out of it.
But judging from the other pirates’ expressions, he knew his persuasion
wouldn’t work.
So he lifted the ward of the stone gate. Since he had managed to see the flaw
about the age, of course it was easy for him to lift the ward, too.
The emptiness in the gate was filled by lights that looked like watermarks.
A pirate reached into it. He felt he had reached into water.

Get prepared. Brace yourselves up,
Fan Tianyin told them.
Seeing Jiang Chen crack the ward so easily, what he had said weighed more
in the other pirates’ heart.
But they wouldn’t give up. They insisted on taking this risk.

Are you really not gonna enter it?

Fan Tianyin asked him for the last time.

I won’t do something that will bring me into trouble.

There were no treasures inside. Of course Jiang Chen wouldn’t go inside.

I’m now giving you the control of the Sea Conqueror. You can go back to
save those people.

Fan Tianyin gave him a round jade.
Holding the jade in hand, Jiang Chen established a connection with the Sea
Conqueror immediately. The ship was like his four limbs. He could control it at
will.

Jiang Chen, let’s go.

Seeing the two gazing at each other, Tang Shiya urged him unhappily.

Take care.

Jiang Chen told her. Then he flew back to the Sea Conqueror with Tang
Shiya.
From the air, he saw Fan Tianyin and the other pirates walk into the gate one
by one.

You’re too softhearted.

As if she had detected something, Tang Shiya said,
You’ll get involved with
that woman sooner or later in this way.


I know how to decline her,
Jiang Chen said.

Jiang Chen, don’t forget that woman is a pirate, and a pirate head. No one
knows how many people she killed.

Tang Shiya said in anger,
Many of those on the Evilest Island are innocent
people.


Shiya, why are you so afraid of her?
Jiang Chen asked abruptly.
Tang Shiya was too surprised to respond him quickly. She looked nervous.
She said after a good while,
She is a Celestial Venerable. Of course I’m
afraid of her.


That’s all?

Jiang Chen looked at her seriously. Tang Shiya also turned to look at him.
Then, smiling at each other, they stopped talking about it.
After going back to the Sea Conqueror, Jiang Chen released the captives of
the Ten Symbols Alliance first. Then he knew the truth of the Evilest Island
from them.
Fan Tianyin didn’t lie. The Ten Symbols Alliance’s strategy was to use the
blood of those innocent men to satisfy the so-called evil spirit on the Evilest
Island.
What was ironic was the Ten Symbols Alliance would still have casualties
while picking the Extreme Primordial Fruits on the island.
Tang Shiya said,
Jiang Chen, now the Sea Conqueror is under our control. If
we capture those pirates, too, it will be a great merit.


Yeah?
Jiang Chen was surprised to hear that.

These pirates are usually hiding on the islands. There are so many islands
on the sea that no one exactly knows where they are. It’s a rare chance that
they’ve got together.

Tang Shiya continued,
By then, you, the Marquis Champion of the Flying
Dragon Dynasty, will be famous all over the Realm of True Force. When you
go to the Flying Dragon Dynasty, you’ll have real power.


That’s what you think? Really?
Jiang Chen asked.

Yep.

Tang Shiya nodded. She said,
Isn’t it what we came here for? Or, are you
feeling sorry for that woman?

Jiang Chen couldn’t help but frown. She had expressed her jealousy and
suspicion many times.

Have you ever heard about what happened to the son of the leader of the
Tianyi School?
Jiang Chen asked.

Anything wrong? I know him. He went to the banquet, too.
Tang Shiya
wondered why he had suddenly brought this up.

He is alive?


Of course.

Tang Shiya’s answer proved Fan Tianyin’s story was false.
Her version contradicted Fan Tianyin’s. He didn’t know whom he should
believe.

Let’s go to the Evilest Island first,
Jiang Chen said.

Okay.

Seeing him unwilling to attack the pirates, Tang Shiya was disappointed, even
a little sad.
Going back to the sea area close to the Evilest Island, the Sea Conqueror
was ready to dive into the water.

Look up!

Someone on the deck suddenly pointed at the sky. Numerous lights flew over,
with long airflow behind.
Jiang Chen made the Sea Conqueror’s weapons ready.

Celestial Venerables. Lots of Celestial Venerables!

They saw figures when the lights had been close enough.
It was a team mainly formed by Celestial Venerables. There were about 40 or
50 people.

Which force is powerful enough to form such a team?!

Those on the ship were puzzled. Then the same name occurred to them.
The Sacred Martial Arts Institute!
However, sending such a team was even rare for the Sacred Martial Arts
Institute.
There weren’t many Celestial Venerables in all. It wouldn’t be wise to send
lots of them to gain a victory. If the enemy was a great Venerable, they would
just send a great Venerable to deal with the enemy.
The team didn’t stop when they had been over the Sea Conqueror. They only
slowed down.
Jiang Chen saw something odd. The team formed two defensive circles.
One formed the inner ring, and the other formed the outer ring.
Those in the inner ring were obviously very different from those in the outer
ring.
At the center of the rings was a youngster in flamboyant clothes. His airflow
was also the most brilliant.
He lowered his head, seemingly having perceived Jiang Chen’s look. The two
made a brief eye contact.
The youngster smiled. It wasn’t a friendly smile, but a disdainful one, as if he
was in a higher position.
He looked away and kept flying.
Shortly after the team had left, a man from the team flew towards the Sea
Conqueror.

He is from the Sacred Martial Arts Institute,
Tang Shiya said seriously, after
seeing that man’s face.
