Chapter 157 Brian Jackson, Ysla's Confusion, A new Quest

“It seems like this monster knows something. Anyway, I have no reason to kill you. Not to mention, I am grateful that someone from that continent was brave enough to ride the boat in this ocean.” Long Tian spoke as he took out a t-shirt from his spatial ring.

He wore a black t-shirt and then released a little bit of spiritual energy around his legs.

Xue Le was still on guard but she didn’t care much about him. She had to look after Fu Chen. His recovery was truly slow despite having the Hongmeng Purple Qi and Healing Energy.

“Ohhh! Is this your lover? Did he take on something above his cultivation? Looks like his body recovering very well. It’s amazing. His body is actually recovering so fast.”

“What kind of energy is that?” Long Tian curiously glanced at Fu Chen and his eyes beamed with excitement as he began to ask various questions.RêAd lateSt chapters at novelhall.com Only

But, neither Xue Le nor Lily replied to him. It wasn’t something they would tell him.

After nobody replied to him, Long Tian heavily sighed and said.

“It’s okay if you don’t want to answer but his consciousness won’t recover very soon. It seems like whatever he did, he hurt his soul as well. It will take him quite a while to recover.”

Saying so, he went to the front and sat down. He had to rest as well. After resting enough, he planned to swim back to the Tiandao Continent. While he was recovering, Xue Le and Lily decided to look after Fu Chen.

Chu Yan and Wu Kong weren’t injured, just exhausted. So, they would wake up soon enough.

As they sailed for quite some time, they started finding a strange movement underneath the ocean. As soon as it happened, Long Tian opened his eyes. He turned his head at Xue Le and shouted,

“Girl, take the boat to the south and try to avoid this movement as much as possible.”

Xue Le didn’t understand the reason but she did paddle to the south. She didn’t want to be caught in whatever was beneath them.

Boom!

Suddenly, a large gust of steam blew out of that part, knocking the entire part of that ocean into the sky.

“W-w-what was that?” Xue Le’s eyes widened as she asked.

“It’s a volcanic eruption. Since the volcano is inside the water, it boils the water into vapor and releases a gust of the vapor toward the sky. If you fall into that gust, you will be fried to death.”

“It was good that you reacted on time.” Long Tian explained as he gave her a thumbs up and smiled.

Xue Le gradually calmed down and slowly took the boat in its original direction.

“What was that? What happened?” Slowly, Chu Yan stood up on his foot legs and asked. He woke up because of that fast turn.

“It was a volcanic eruption. We had to evade it. Sorry, I woke you up. You should get more rest.” Xue Le finally smiled and patted his head.

“Martial Youth List. What’s that?” Xue Le curiously asked.

Long Tian’s expression got serious as he spoke “The List of the geniuses of our continent. There are a thousand geniuses on that list. It is based on the number of people you kill.”

“If you are a human, it depends upon how many monsters, devils, and spirits you kill. If you are a monster, it depends upon how many devils, spirits, and humans you kill. The others are just like that with a slight change.”

“It is a battlefield of geniuses. And, my rank is 90.”

When he said that, Xue Le and Chu Yan’s eyes widened like crazy. They knew the person in front of them had higher cultivation than them. But, they didn’t understand why his lank was so low.

After all, even Chu Yan didn’t have the confidence to fight him.

Xue Le gulped down and asked, “Who is the first?”

When she asked that, Long Tian suddenly trembled. His body was shaking and sweat started coming out of his skin.

Xue Le, Lily, and Chu Yan felt even more strange when he showed a such reaction. They didn’t know how to react to his reaction because he was already the genius of geniuses in their eyes.

After a while, Long Tian controlled his body and took a deep breath.

“His name is Brian Jackson. He managed to rank first from the bottom in a year. And, even though it has been years since he has disappeared, his record is still unbeatable.”

“It was said that his talent was so scary that Darknight Continent sent five Saints to assassinate him. Of course, this is just a baseless rumor but since he hasn’t appeared for years, many still believe in that.”

At this moment, Chu Yan and Xue Le were terrified to the point they were literally shaking. They understood his meaning. Even if it has been over a year, his record hadn’t been broken.

They can’t comprehend just how many people he has killed till now.

They kept this name deep inside their mind. But, it wasn’t just them. Inside Brian’s mind, Ysla was confused.

“Why do I feel like I have heard that name? Why can’t I remember anything? Does this have something to the restriction in my memories? Who is he? Is he the one that put the seal? Or, is he related to the person that did so?”

“Does that mean finding him will allow me to learn the secrets about the system?”
