The three of them entered the fishing boat and hid in the cargo bay. There were meat and vegetables everywhere, and the smell wasn't good. However, this was the safest place to start the boat, so no one came to patrol.

With such a tight space, Feng Ning Yan had no choice but to stick close to Shen Ling Jue's side.

The fishing boat was speedily sailing in the direction of the current. Looking at the compass, it was indeed heading towards an island in the southern region of the sea.

Shen Ling Jue calculated the speed of the boat. Two hours later, he said, "Prepare to disembark."

Although she couldn't see what was happening outside, she was certain that the ship was still deep in the sea and hadn't landed yet.

"Disembark now?" She couldn't help but question him.

"We can't get ashore at the docks." Shen Ling Jue said in a low voice, "Before the ship sailed, the sailors didn't inspect the cargo warehouse, and they rarely inspected the ship after it sailed. This means that when they boarded the island, there were naturally some people who closely inspected the people and cargo."

Feng Ningyan frowned. "But we are so far from the island. If we disembark, we will be discovered floating on the surface of the sea."

Jing Qi smiled and handed her a long reed, "That's why I prepared this."

Feng Ning Yan received it and took a look. It turned out to be a hollow reed tube. She smiled.

This really was a necessary tool for diving. Even if he was short of breath, he was not afraid.

All three of them went to the stern of the ship and used the hook to hook the boat. They quietly slipped into the sea.

1,000 feet away, there was a small island lit up by lights and a small dock could be vaguely seen.

There were patrolling men walking around the dock and shore. Whether it was the people on the boat or the cargo, they would have to face a strict investigation if they wanted to land here.

Jing Qi was extremely impressed, "Your highness has really divine foresight."

"We'll go up to the island from the north." Shen Ling Jue dived into the water as he spoke.

Feng Ningyan and Jingqi followed closely behind, also diving.

The three of them were powerful martial artists. Although they were fighting against the current, they still managed to reach the north side of the island.

Here, there was a tall reef and some tall trees, which were just enough to conceal their figures and allow them to be on the island without anyone noticing.

Shen Ling Jue went ashore first. When he saw two patrolling black clothed men approaching, he hurriedly turned his head and made a gesture to Feng Ning Yan and Jing Qi, implying: Two enemies, kill them.

This gesture was not as complicated as the signal given by the lights in the Prince's Mansion when he was commanding the extermination of the killer. Feng Ning Yan understood immediately.

The three of them quietly surrounded the two patrolling guards. Shen Lingjue pointed at one of the dead points, while Jing Qi covered the other person's mouth and twisted his neck, causing him to die.

They dragged the two patrolling guards into the rocky beach, stripped off their clothes, took off their medallions, and took out their swords.

When Feng Ningyan saw that the two of them had changed into the island's patrolling uniform, she anxiously asked, "The two of you have already changed clothes, what should I do?"

Shen Ling Jue smiled and said, "Let's find a chance to kill another one."

Feng Ning Yan blew her hair, so she could only do this.

They quickly approached the center of the island, sticking close to the rocks and trees. The goods had already been checked out and were being shipped to the island one by one.

However, when the three of them quietly approached the center of the island, they discovered that there wasn't even a small house. The place was filled with strange rocks and trees, as if it was a deserted island without any signs of human habitation.

The island people carried food and water into the rubble and suddenly disappeared. Not a single one came out.

Feng Ningyan suddenly realized, no wonder these people's skin looked so pale. It turned out they were a group of rats living underground.

"Split up and look for the tunnel."

Shen Ling Jue's figure flashed, like a phantom, he appeared in the middle of the pile of strange rocks.

Feng Ningyan knew in her heart that this was the enemy's lair, so it was definitely very dangerous. However, it was too late for her to get to him first, so she could only give a light leap and chase after him.

In the middle of the pile of strange rocks were some small trees that looked like a group of ferocious devils at night.

When Feng Ning Yan approached, she could smell the scent of blood.

This was the smell of human blood. She, who had seen many corpses on the battlefield, was extremely familiar with them.

Weird, why is there such a strong smell of blood in this place?

She slowly walked forward and discovered that the smell of blood was getting stronger. She was extremely confused and followed the smell. Not far away, she suddenly stepped onto a cold flat ground.

She lowered her head and saw that it was clearly a thick layer of grass. How could it have such an ice-cold feeling?

Startled, she bent over to brush away the layer of green grass. It was not sand but a rusted iron plate.

"Yes!" It must be here! "

She quickly uncovered this layer of grass and saw that there was indeed an iron plate underneath with a protruding tiger's head on it.

She immediately imitated the cry of the seabirds, luring Shen Ling Jue and Jingqi over.

Shen Ling Jue glanced at the tiger's head, then gave a faint smile, giving Feng Ning Yan a thumbs up.

Then he squatted down and looked for a moment, three fingers in the center of the tiger's head and in its eyes. He turned left a few times, turned right a few more times, and pressed down.

Compared to the mechanism of the Thousand Blessings Pavilion, this was simply child's play.

Feng Ning Yan was overjoyed and wanted to be the first one to jump in.

He quickly stopped her and threw a boomerang into the tunnel.

After a moment, the boomerang turned back and Jing Qi nodded towards Shen Lingjue and Feng Ning Yan. Because the boomerang did not attract the attention of the people in the tunnel, it meant that there were no guards at the entrance.

The three of them then jumped to the bottom of the tunnel.

When he reached the bottom, he saw that he was actually in a large stone hall.

There were four tunnels around him, and the entrances looked exactly the same. At most, he could walk two people side by side.

There was not a single light in the passage, and the end could not be seen.

This was bad.

Since they had entered the center of the island, there was no need to talk about the dangers. Right now, there were four paths; one was real, the other was a trap. There was no way to tell.

He could not use the boomerang to probe any further. If he was discovered, it would be impossible for him to escape.

Feng Ning Yan couldn't help but look at Shen Ling Jue.

Shen Lingjue turned around to look at the four entrances, tightly holding onto Feng Ning Yan's hand, softly asking, "How did you discover the entrance just now?"

Feng Ning Yan was startled, and recalled the disgusting smell of blood from earlier, and her heart suddenly lit up.

"The smell of blood …"

"The smell of blood?" Shen Lingjue looked at her doubtfully, while Jing Qi did not understand either.

Seeing their blank expressions, Feng Ningyan suddenly realized a problem.

She could smell the nauseating smell of blood, but Shen Lingjue and Jing Qi actually didn't smell it.

Was there something wrong with her sense of smell?

That's not right! If her sense of smell was just an illusion, how could she possibly rely on this smell to find the entrance to the tunnel?

She couldn't help but walk towards one of the tunnels. She felt that there was a smell of damp mold inside, but the smell of blood wasn't very strong.

She hurried to the other passageway and finally found one. The thick smell of blood wafted into her nostrils.
