âEven God Realm warriors cannot cross the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist!â Shi Yan was startled. His eyes were flooded with astonishment, bewilderedly looking at Ye ZhangFeng and Lin Ya Qin at the side.
Xia ShenChuan estimated the Vein Spirit Pellet in his hand. His face displayed the caution as if the Vein Spirit Pellet suddenly became heavy.
Lin Ya Qin didnât really care. She stood there, looking casually from east to west and didnât seem to pay attention to the othersâ conversation.
Ye ZhangFeng revealed an improper smile. However, his eyes seemed to contain some hidden meanings.
âHave you really crossed the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist?â Xia ShenChuan contemplated for a while before asking again with a more somber face.
Ye ZhangFeng nodded and smiled.
âHow could you cross the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist?â Obviously, Xia ShenChuan didnât believe him right away. Even the God Realm warriors couldnât have crossed that place, what did he have to be able to do so?!
âHehe, I canât tell you this.â Ye ZhangFeng revealed a broad smile and deliberately said, âAbout this, our Old Master actually has some tricks. It will be nearly impossible for ordinary people to survive after entering the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist. However, we are a little bit more special. Moreover, the Old Master has been living there all year-round, he obviously isnât scared of the anomalies of that place.â
âYour Master has been living inside the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist all year-round?â Xia ShenChuan couldnât help but scream with astonishment.
Lin Ya Kiâs face was still incurious. She seemed to feel that Xia ShenChuan was way more surprised than he should have been.
âThatâs true.â Ye ZhangFeng nodded, âOur Old Master has been living there. Both of us have also spent most of our time there.â
Shi Yan tightly knitted his eyebrows. He suddenly had a suspicion that this little rascal probably had ulterior motives in coming to see him.
âWhy have you come to the Endless Sea?â Xia ShenChuan asked.
âIt is boring there, so I have gone out to find some fun.â Ye ZhangFeng comfortably replied. As he saw that everyone all showed their suspicions, he awkwardly smiled and added, âAh, Iâve come to the Endless Sea to find something as well.â
âFind something?â Shi Yan squinted and coldly asked, âFind what?â
âHehe.â Ye ZhangFeng just laughed without replying. He obviously didnât want to answer it.
Shi Yan frigidly harrumphed and didnât know what to ask for now.
âDo you need the Vain Spirit Pellet or not?â Ye ZhangFeng seemed to be impatient. âIf you donât need it, then give it back to me. This kind of toy is not cheap. I am still a little bit regretful.â
Xia ShenChuan tightly closed his hand at once. His appearance looked like he would never let go of it at any cost. He gritted his teeth and resentfully said, âI need it. Tell me, what is your condition?â
âCondition?â Ye ZhangFeng hesitated for a while with his strange eyes before bursting out laughing and saying, âPresently, letâs not discuss the condition. Wait until Xia Jing Hou recovers then I will come and talk to him. Itâs useless to talk to you now. You canât understand nor possibly make any decisions by yourself. â
Xia ShenChuan was angry; his face didnât look good.
âI am just telling the truth.â YeZhangFeng didnât care about it. Instead, he smiled and waved at Shi Yan while speaking, âAlright, I will not disturb you anymore. Wait until the meeting on the island is over, and I will come and find you. I have come here just to give Xia Master the Vein Spirit Pellet, nothing else.â
Under the astonished eyes of Shi Yan and Xia ShenChuan, Ye ZhangFeng stretched his arms pulling Lin Ya Qin and walked out without caring if that girl had agreed or not.
After leaving, Lin Ya Qinâs eyes were half closed forming a new moon while amiably looking at him, âLittle Bai, why did you give the Vein Spirit Pellet to that old man? That old man is only at the Earth Realm, how much value does he have? Many people know how precious the Vein Spirit Pellet is. If the Old Master knows that you have impulsively given it to the others, you are going to have a hard time.â
Ye ZhangFeng coldly harrumphed and said, âDo you think I was willing to do it? In fact, the Old Master has told me to give this spirit pellet to the Master of the Xia family. Perhaps, the Old Master has refined this Vein Spirit Pellet specifically for Xia Jing Hou.â
Lin Ya Qin was bewildered, suspiciously shook her head and said, âHow come? According to you, Xi Jing Hou is only at the First Sky of the Spirit Realm and is often in his state of being insane. How could the Old Master become so preoccupied with him?â
âXia Jing Hou used to cross the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist and was one of the very few high-class warriors who had safely gotten out of it. The Old Master used to meet him inside of the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist that year; otherwise, Xia ShenChuan wouldnât have been able to know about the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist that much, which has proved that Xia Jing Hou had told him about this.â Ye ZhangFeng seriously said.
âHe crossed the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist?â Lin Ya Qiâs eyes brightened, she seemed just to have figured out something and shouted, âAh, thatâs right. Xia Jing Houâs insanity is caused by that area inside the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist?!â
âYou have finally figured it out.â Ye ZhangFeng smiled and said.
âThatâs why.â Lin Ya Qin understood and nodded, âNo wonder the Old Master has agreed to give him one Vein Spirit Pellet. If the Vein Spirit Pellet can cure him then it is surely a blessing in disguise, he will most likely be entering the new realm directly.â
âIt can be said that as he could get out of there alive and has also been in this state of insanity for that long but hasnât died yet, so he is not just a normal man. I think he has soon found something, and if the Vein Spirit Pellet can help his mentality regain its normal functions, he can at least enter the Second Sky of the Spirit Realm and will perhaps perceive some kind of magic. The thing that the Old Master wants are the experiences that this guy has been through.â
âWho are those two people?â After Ye ZhangFeng and Lin Ya Qin had left, Xia XinYan knitted her eyebrows while asking Shi Yan with suspicion. âIs it true that you have just met them?â
âI have just met them.â Shi replied with a miserable smile. âI didnât expect the situation of what just happened. The identity of those two people is mystical. Moreover, they are not from the Endless Sea for sure.â
âI have never heard that anyone could live inside the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist before. It is strange indeed.â
Xia ShenChuanâs eyes flared up a strange light while holding the Vein Spirit Pellet. âThis Vein Spirit Pellet looks like it has some possible effects indeed. Perhaps it will be able to cure the strange sickness that is ailing your great grandfather.â
Xia XinYanâs face was excited. âIf great grandfather can recover, the Xia family can be freed from the current situation.â
âOf course.â Xia ShenChuan replied with a confident face. âIf your great grandfather didnât become like this, in the Endless Sea, people like Gu Shao and Yu Qin would have had to pay their respects in front of him. In the five Seas, the people who can defeat your great grandfather is only numbered on oneâs fingers.â
âWhy did he become like that?â Xia XinYan asked with a little bit worry. âEvery time the Reincarnation Martial Spirit of the Xia family breaks through to the new realm, there is always a high possibility of losing oneself. If so, could it be that I might also encounter it in the future?â
âIt isnât similar to your imagination.â Xia ShenChuan shook his head. âAlthough our Reincarnation Martial Spirit has the possibility of being possessed by the Devil (it is translated from a Chinese term âqigong deviationâ which indicates that something has gone wrong in spiritual or martial arts training, or physiological disorder during or after the practice), it is not as serious as you have imagined. No one of the Xia familyâs ancestors had ever encountered the insanity as your great grandfather has.â
âSo why has Great Grandfather been like that?â
âPerhaps it has something related to the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist.â Xia Shen Chuanâs face was heavy, seeming not to be very sure about it either. He told Xia XinYan the story despite Shi Yanâs presence. âFifty years ago, when your Great Grandfather had just entered the Spirit Realm, he suddenly wanted to take a risk to barge into the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist. He had stayed there for nine years before returning. Not long after that, he became like this. Before entering the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist, your Great Grandfather was totally normal. I think that something had definitely happened inside of the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist that had made him become like this.â
Shi Yanâs face became horrific.
âDo the other two people know about the story of Great Grandfather?â Xia XinYan lucidly thought about this.
âProbably.â Xia ShenChuan was not very certain. âI have decided to give this Vein Spirit Pellet to him because the duration that he can maintain his consciousness is getting shorter. If it continues like this, he wonât possibly be perspicacious anymore. We have to try even though there is just one thin ray of hope left.â
Xia XinYan slightly released a sigh and didnât say anything further.
âShi Yan, why did you look for me?â After having talked for a while, Xia ShenChuan suddenly remembered that Shi Yan coming here should be for something. He couldnât help but ask.
âLeave the ten islands taken from the Gu family and the Heaven Lake Divine Land for later. The Xia familyâs members should go to the Snow Dragon Island. If we can gather our forces, it will be easier for us to support each other.â Shi Yan quickly said without wasting any more time. That was what he had wanted to discuss with Xia ShenChuan.
Currently, the Demon Dwellers were storing up and gathering forces in the Kyara Sea. They could have launched their attacks at any possible time.
The Xia family was presently in the middle of the Hengluo Sea and the Black Water Sea, which was a relatively sensitive area. The Demon Dwellers probably wouldnât have paid attention to it. However, if they did take actions, the Xia familyâs forces would hardly be able to resist them.
âSnow Dragon Island.â
After contemplating for a while, Xia ShenChuan firmly nodded eventually. âOK, I will immediately arrange this after my return.â
âYou can transmit the information now if possible. As soon as possible.â Shi Yan said.
After considering, Xia ShenChuan also thought that the idea was right and said, âAlright, I am sending the message now.â
Shi Yan slightly revealed a smile, looked at Xia XinYan, winking at her and said, âShall we take a walk?â
Xia XinYanâs face blushed. She stealthily had a quick glance at her grandfather. As she saw Xia ShenChuan seemed not to have any reactions, she then slightly nodded and followed Shi Yan.
On the coast of the Sun Island, the ocean breezes were gently blowing.
Shi Yan and Xia XinYan were sitting together on a huge green stone.
Under the chilly moonlight, the two of them were watching the sea in the gentle breeze, enjoying the peace that belonged only to the two of them, for now.
Shi Yan slightly stretched out his hand, holding Xia XinYanâs small hand and giggled.

Xia XinYanâs face reddened. She threw him a quick glance, struggled a few times but couldnât get out of his grab. Hence, she stopped struggling and said with a weak voice, âTime flies. It has been three years already.â
âThatâs right. Honestly, in recent years, we havenât had many chances to meet each other. We have always been in a hurry, having quickly parted after just a short time of being together. It has always been a very long time before we could see each other again.â Shi Yan released a sigh. âI had many thoughts when I had just arrived at the Endless Sea. My cultivation has had big improvements in recent years, but our relationship doesnât seem to have much progress. Shall we change a little bit?â
Shi Yanâs flaming eyes fixed on her appealing body. His fervid eyes concealed many inner meanings.
Xia XinYanâs snow-white neck slightly reddened; her eyes were bashful. She blamed him with a low voice, âWhy do you always have these kinds of things in your head?â
âPlease âŚâ Shi Yan giggled, forcefully embraced her waist and pulled her charming body closer to his.
