Chapter 488 The Shattered Dragon Bone Heavenly Lantern

The Kunlong Battle General informed the Azure Dragon Battle General of his whereabouts, attempting to use a borrowed hand to kill him. Meanwhile, Fang Chen also informed the Killing Spiritual Division about the Kunlong Battle General's whereabouts. Both were trying to use the hands of other people to do dirty work for them, but the result was that Fang Chen remained unharmed on the ship while the Kunlong Battle General's physical body was destroyed.

Although he didn't die, for a Nascent Soul Realm expert to lose their physical body would definitely be quite painful. He probably wouldn't cause trouble for a long time.

"It wasn't a waste to spend those twenty thousand low-grade spirit stones," Fang Chen muttered to himself, then took out the materials for making True Fire Talismans.

In the blink of an eye, a month passed. Fang Chen hadn't taken a single step outside his chamber. The people keeping tabs on him hadn't left at all as well, and had been watching him outside for an entire month.

Today, the massive ship was approaching a bustling port with nearly a thousand vessels of all sizes. Many cultivators stood on the deck, their eyes filled with excitement. They had been on the ship for a whole year and could finally dock for resupply. This opportunity was not something ordinary people would miss.

The voice of Mirror of the Universe suddenly sounded. "Brother, don't you plan to disembark and take a look?"

Fang Chen's eyes flickered. "What's special about this port?"

The Mirror of the Universe wouldn't call him to disembark for no reason.

"In fact, there's nothing special about this port. It's mainly because there's only this one port in the nearby region. Cultivators from all over will stay here, and they might have some good things in their hands. Aren't you planning to purchase treasures for that brat? Maybe you'll find a few here," Mirror of the Universe said.

“Little Chen, what he said makes sense,” Little Sword chimed in for once.

Fang Chen smiled. "I don't need you guys to tell me. I am planning to disembark."

Although the Dragon Soaring Pavilion sold treasures, they didn't have high-grade, yellow-rank treasures. Now that he had more than fifty thousand low-grade spirit stones, the best choice would be to utilize them to increase the power of his Sword Body. Not to mention that those pickpockets were waiting for him to disembark, and Fang Chen didn't want to disappoint them.

Outside, the cultivators who had been keeping Fang Chen under surveillance finally saw him come out of the room. They quickly became excited. One of them immediately activated a Transmission Talisman, while the others followed Fang Chen closely. Seeing that Fang Chen intended to disembark, their excitement grew.

Before long, Old Wang, who had been monitoring Fang Chen, arrived with his men. Upon learning that Fang Chen was disembarking, he immediately led his people to follow the crowd off the ship. After a while, Chen Sheng also disembarked with two female cultivators.

Taking out five hundred low-grade spirit stones, Fang Chen handed them to the owner and casually picked up the Dragon Bone Heavenly Lantern. Rubbing it softly, he asked, "Where does this item come from, and why is it in such a damaged state?"

The stall owner smiled and replied, "I don't know, these are just items I've collected along the way. However, this Dragon Bone Heavenly Lantern likely comes from the legendary Central Continent Empire."

"You're bluffing. How could a treasure from the Central Continent Empire end up in your hands?" someone interjected.

The stall owner's expression turned serious as he glanced at the person. "I apologize, but the seller who gave me this item is indeed from the Central Continent Empire."

"You know sellers from the Central Continent Empire?"

The skeptical person's eyes showed a hint of fear, chuckling awkwardly before falling silent.

"My friend, I'm very interested in this lantern. Could you tell me where I can find the seller? I'd like to ask him about the origin of this lantern," Fang Chen inquired.

The stall owner shook his head and sighed. "It's just a chance encounter, I don't know where he went."

With that said, the stall owner started introducing the damaged treasures in front of him.

Fang Chen stood quietly, his thoughts drifting. He didn't even notice that Old Wang and the others had subtly surrounded him. He took out a Starlight Transmission Symbol and sent a few messages to Fairy Yu, but they were met with silence, like drops in the ocean.

"Something's wrong," Fang Chen muttered to himself. If the Dragon Bone Heavenly Lantern ended up in such a broken state in Fairy Yu's hands, one could imagine the danger she had faced.

Old Wang walked up to Fang Chen and chuckled softly. "My friend, come with us. Our young master wants to meet you, and he's in a good mood today. Perhaps if you perform well, you might be able to stay alive."

Fang Chen nodded. "Alright, I'm not in a good mood today anyway. Lead the way."

Old Wang was taken aback for a moment. He expected Fang Chen to be angry or at least inquire about the situation, but why was he so calm, as if he already knew? However, Old Wang didn't dwell on it. He just smiled slyly and said, "Please follow me."
