Chapter 291: The Second Question, Who Am I?

Chapter 291: The Second Question, Who Am I?

Fifteen minutes passed.

Fang Chen's divine soul returned to his body. He turned to the captain. “Do as I say, head in that direction,” he said, pointing in a direction.

The captain seemed hesitant to do as told.

The Sixth King exchanged looks with the others before he came up to Fang Chen and whispered, "Sect Leader Fang, are you sure about this?"

Fang Chen smiled. "If you're afraid that you’ll be trapped in the formation, you can leave now."

No one said anything.

Finally, after some consideration amongst themselves, a few Foundation Building Realm cultivators clasped their fists at Fang Chen and then flew away. They really didn’t dare to step into a formation that had been set up by a Golden Core Realm cultivator so recklessly. They had only one life; they didn’t want to gamble it away like this.

Now that these few cultivators had left, there were only a few cultivators aboard the ship, who had decided after much consideration that they’d take the risk. This was a rare opportunity. Immortal Sea Dragon’s cave dwelling had to contain many resources they could use.

"Have you all made your decision?" asked Fang Chen.

The Sixth King nodded. "I trust in your abilities."

Fang Chen returned a nod and turned to the captain. "Set sail."

Sullen, the captain had no choice but to set sail, following Fang Chen’s directions.

"Stop."

"You can go now."

"Turn left by ten yards."

"Hmm, continue forward."

It was about half an hour later that they all noticed that the fog suddenly started to lift, and it wasn’t long before they all saw a port close in the distance!

Everyone took in a sharp breath.

"We’ve already made it?"

They had expected themselves to encounter a few hiccups in their way! This had gone way too smoothly!

There was only one explanation for this: Fang Chen had to have analyzed this formation to the very extreme and understood it thoroughly in such a short period of time!

"It only took him half an hour to crack a formation set up by a Golden Core Realm expert....”

Everyone was shaken.

"There aren’t any Foundation Building Realm cultivators on the island, only some at the Qi Refining Realm, so you don't need to worry. But there are a few areas on the island with formations set up, so you’d better be careful. Don’t be reckless."

Fang Chen smiled thinly. "And what sort of treatment do you want, exactly?"

The middle-aged man frowned. "Do you have a say in that?"

He remembered that there had been only a few disciples here on the island serving Immortal Sea Dragon. He had never seen this masked cultivator before. Maybe he isn’t one of Immortal Sea Dragon’s people?

Fang Chen nodded. "I’m the one calling the shots right now. So, whatever requests you have, feel free to tell me."

The middle-aged man's gaze flickered, and he said in a deep voice, "I have only one request: don’t keep my lady locked up in here. We can't escape from the island anyway."

"I can agree to that request, but you have to answer a few questions of mine," said Fang Chen lightly.

The middle-aged man sneered coldly. "You already know everything you should. There’s nothing else for me to say. Even if you want to kill me, I won’t say another word."

"Tell me about the ancient first family, the Jiang Family."

The middle-aged man was taken aback. His eyes boiling with anger, he shouted, "Are you messing with me?”

"You’re not saying? Then I’m leaving," said Fang Chen, turning to leave.

The middle-aged man’s face sank, and he quickly yelled, "Wait! I’ll tell you!”

Fang Chen stopped and turned back.

The middle-aged man slowly began, "The Jiang Family has been around since ancient times, and we have countless powerful figures. We’re revered as the ‘ancient first family.’"

He didn’t say anything else, only watched Fang Chen silently.

"Is that all?" asked Fang Chen, his brow raised. "You might as well have not said anything. Tell me a little more."

It was then that the young girl spoke up. "Let me handle this, Uncle Zhang,” she said, looking at Fang Chen. "My Jiang Family has once dominated a first-tier empire in the Central Continent. We were invincible. But that was a long, long time ago. As you all know, the Jiang Family has long since declined. I am the last descendent of the family."

‘A once invincible ancient family had been reduced to two people in the Qi Refining Realm?’ pondered Fang Chen silently. That had to be a long, long time ago. But since Immortal Sea Dragon spared an effort to capture these two, then there had to be something about them that was worth the trouble.

Fang Chen smiled. "Now for the second question: who am I?"

The two of them looked at each other. Has this man lost his marbles?

"You Spirit Blood Sect members are really a bunch of lunatics,” growled the middle-aged man.

The Spirit Blood Sect.

‘So it really is the Spirit Blood Sect,’ thought Fang Chen.

Fang Chen was starting to believe Xia Xuanji's words. There might really be a supreme figure behind the Spirit Blood Sect who was lurking in a first-tier empire. That Jade Dragon Battle General who Immortal Sea Dragon had spoken of was likely a Nascent Soul expert!

This was very valuable information, but Fang Chen couldn’t help but feel that he had only scratched the tip of the iceberg which is the Spirit Blood Sect.

"Do you have a place you can go to if you escape from here?" asked Fang Chen. He wasn't interested in these two, but as they said, “The enemy of my enemy is my friend.” Since the Spirit Blood Sect wanted them, he’ll hide them away so they'll never find them!
