Chapter 169

Originally thought that after finding the Hidden Island, Yunxia Sect was destined to become famous all over the world this time but I didn’t expect that now the big ship has been blown to pieces. In this way, even if the people who are still alive get some treasures in this Hidden Island, how can they return to Yunxia Sect?

Without that sturdy big ship, even a Divine Movement Jing expert would not be able to fly across this nearly ten thousand miles.

A sense of grief and a hint of unease welled up in the hearts of the three disciples of Yunxia Sect. The three of them were all young and had never encountered any great hardships. First, they were attacked by sea monsters in the sea, witnessing the deaths of countless fellow disciples and elders with their own eyes. Human life was as fragile as an ant. If it weren’t for their good luck, they would now be like those people, with their corpses becoming the food for fish and beasts. Fortunately, they escaped from danger, and now they were trapped on this isolated island with no hope of going home, so they naturally felt sad.

Senior Sister Qing, don’t worry. Junior Brother will definitely find a chance to take you back.” Miao Lin was well-versed in the art of courting girls. Although he was also panicked and at a loss in his heart, he knew that this was the best time to show himself, so he quickly said, with his sincere heart showing on his face.”

Yu Aoqing was already in a bad mood. Hearing him speak so boastfully, she couldn’t help but sneer and said, “What ability do you have to take me away？ Can you build a big ship that can withstand the attack of monsters？”

“No.” Miao Lin was questioned and his expression became embarrassed.

“Then can you fly across this ten thousand miles？” Yu Aoqing pressed again.

“Nor can…”

“If you can’t, then shut up！” Yu Aoqing vented all the anger that had been pent up on the big ship these days. If it weren’t for the fact that they were now in trouble, I’m afraid she would have already attacked Miao Lin.

That Zhang Yu quickly persuaded, “Senior Sister Qing, don’t be angry. Miao Lin just said it casually.”

“Hmph！” Yu Aoqing flicked her hair and turned around to walk along the beach. As she walked, she said coldly, “Not having much ability yet wanting to be a hero, overestimating oneself！”

Zhang Yu quickly followed.

Miao Lin had good intentions to comfort, but was coldly ridiculed by Yu Aoqing with sarcastic remarks. His face also looked a bit unpleasant, and he softly muttered a sentence. A hint of resentment and venom flashed in his eyes, and then he turned his head to look at Yang Kai, with killing intent surging, seemingly wanting to vent his anger on Yang Kai.

“Take him with us！” Yu Aoqing’s cold words came from the front.

Miao Lin quickly responded. He gave Yang Kai a hateful look and then pushed him.

The four of them walked in one direction along the beach. Although Yu Aoqing didn’t say what she was going to do, Yang Kai knew that she wanted to look for those Yunxia Sect disciples who had scattered because of fleeing for their lives.

This was undoubtedly a correct approach. Now they were alone and weak. Without the presence of elders, naturally they should look for people to gather.

But after walking on the beach for a whole day, they only found four people in distress. Moreover, only two of them were Yunxia Sect disciples, and the other two were actually ordinary people. The others all didn’t know where they had scattered.

The team expanded to eight people, but the overall strength didn’t increase much. These five Yunxia Sect disciples were all disciples of the younger generation.

The last two Cloud Mist Sect disciples they found were also a man and a woman. The man was called Qi Yuan and the woman was called Luo Qianqian. Their strengths were not so great, probably between the peak of Qi Movement and the Lihe Realm.

Not being able to find the elders, Yu Aoqing seemed a bit flustered. Among the five Cloud Mist Sect disciples here, her strength was the highest, having reached the sixth layer of the Lihe Realm. The others were all inferior to her. Moreover, she usually had a rather high status in the Cloud Mist Sect, so naturally everyone looked to her as the leader and hoped that she could lead them out of this mess. The burden on her shoulders made her feel a bit at a loss.

At night, the three ordinary people were ordered by the Cloud Mist Sect disciples to pick up some firewood. They lit a bonfire by the beach. Everyone gathered around to discuss what to do next.

Some people suggested going to look for the elders again, while others said to stay here and wait for others to come and find them. The opinions were not very unified.

In the end, it was Yu Aoqing who spoke up and said, “Since we have entered the Hidden Island, we can’t waste this opportunity. Tomorrow we will go into the island to investigate. Maybe we will meet our uncles and masters. Even if we don’t, if we obtain an opportunity, maybe we can leave here and return to the Cloud Mist Sect.”

Everyone felt that what Yu Aoqing said was reasonable. Moreover, the wealth and opportunities are in the Hidden Island were also the biggest reasons that made them.

After they finished discussing, Yang Kai then spoke up in a submissive manner, “Several experts, when you enter the island, can you not bring the three of us？ We are just fishermen by the sea. In case we encounter any danger inside, we won’t be able to fight like you. We can only become a burden…”

The other two ordinary people also thought this way, but they didn’t have the courage as Yang Kai to bring it up. At this moment, upon hearing this, they all looked at Yu Aoqing with some anticipation.

They knew that the decision-making power was in Yu Aoqing’s hands.

Zhang Yu’s beautiful eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she nodded, saying, “Hmm, bringing you guys is indeed a burden.”

Originally, she thought Yu Aoqing would agree to leave these three ordinary people here, but unexpectedly, Yu Aoqing just thought for a moment and then shook her head, smiling faintly and saying, “You were brought in by my Yunxia Sect. Leaving you here, maybe you will encounter some danger. It’s better to follow us and there is still hope of getting out alive.”

Bitch！ Yang Kai cursed in his heart. How could he not know what Yu Aoqing was up to？ This woman with an extremely beautiful face but a vicious heart definitely wouldn’t be so kind-hearted.

Although he thought this way in his heart, on his mouth he had to be grateful and thankful, secretly sighing that he was probably going to move around with the people of the Yunxia Sect for some more days.

This is also okay. Anyway, he didn’t know much about this Hidden Island. It just so happened to follow them to check out the situation. When it really comes to a dangerous moment, is he still afraid that he won’t be able to find a chance to escape?

At night, the five disciples of Yunxia took turns keeping watch at night.

The next day, the group of eight people stepped into the Hidden Island to explore.

As soon as they entered the island, Yu Aoqing revealed her true purpose and asked one of the ordinary people to walk in the front to explore the way, while the others followed behind.

Although this person was extremely terrified, he had to obey under Yu Aoqing’s threat.

It was only at this moment that everyone knew why Yu Aoqing insisted on bringing ordinary people along. It turned out that they were used to explore the way.

After walking for a long time, they went deeper and deeper. There were towering ancient trees all around, Youdaoplaceholder0. The clattering sound made people feel frightened. The ordinary person walking in the front to lead the way was like a frightened bird. His legs went weak and he fell to the ground, crying and begging for mercy.

Several people from Yunxia ignored him and kept threatening. After a long time, that person finally summoned up the courage to move forward again.

When it was noon, a row of fruit trees suddenly appeared in front. There were some bright red fruits on them. No one knew what kind of fruits they were, but they smelled quite fragrant.

The group was tired and hungry. Seeing so many fruits at this moment, their appetites were naturally greatly aroused, and they couldn’t help but swallow their saliva.

Luo Qianqian reached out and picked one, and was about to taste it when Yu Aoqing suddenly shouted coldly： “Wait！”

Luo Qianqian’s movement stopped, and she looked at herfeel uncertain: “What’s the matter?”

Yu Aoqing’s pretty face was cold as she took the fruit over, and her beautiful eyes turned around on the three ordinary people.

Seeing her expression, everyone knew what she was going to do.

When they didn’t know whether the fruit was poisonous or not, the best way was to find someone to taste it first. The expressions of the two ordinary people became flustered, and they didn’t dare to look at her. Yang Kai also pretended to be like this.

But Yu Aoqing took a fancy to Yang Kai precisely. She walked up to him, stuffed the fruit into his hand, and said, “Eat it.”

Yang Kai endured the anger and didn’t flare up. He lowered his head and looked at the fruit in his hand, and took a sniff at the tip of his nose. Intuitively, he felt that it was not poisonous. But in this world, there are beneficial and harmful things. Who can say for sure？

“Eat it. It’s not poisonous.” The voice of the Earth Demon came over. “This little bitch is really not a good thing.”

“You recognize this？” Yang Kai asked uneasily.

“Yes.”

If it weren’t for the reminder of the Earth Demon, Yang Kai would have made a big fuss even at the risk of revealing his identity. But since the Earth Demon said it was not poisonous, then of course he could eat it. Anyway, he was also hungry.

With a clear mind, his face was still full of difficulties. Looking at the fruit in his hand, it was like the most powerful poison. Under the repeated urging of Yu Aoqing, Yang Kai reluctantly took a bite.

It had a very fragrant taste, sweet in the mouth, a bit like a ripe persimmon, but much more chewy than a persimmon.

“Eat more.” Yu Aoqing ordered with a cold face.

“Demon Earth, if I can kill this woman, you must torture her soul well for me.” Yang Kai secretly gritted his teeth in his heart.

“This old slave obeys!” Demon Earth hehe responded.

Until Yangkai finished eating the whole fruit, the other seven people remained motionless, all eagerly awaiting his reaction. Until Yangkai finished eating the whole fruit, the other seven people remained motionless, all eagerly awaiting his reaction.

After waiting for a full half an hour and seeing that Yang Kai was still fine, Yu Aoqing couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief and waved her hand, saying, “You can eat now. We’ll rest here for a while and then set off later.”

Upon hearing her say so, Miao Lin and Qi Yuan quickly stepped forward to pick the fruits. The three female disciples of Yunxia didn’t take action. In a short while, Miao Lin and Qi Yuan picked a lot of fruits and handed them to the three women.

Miao Lin didn’t stint in praising verbally： “It’s still Senior Sister Qing who has a delicate mind. If it weren’t for you leading this time, I’m afraid we would have been poisoned to death in a few days.”

Zhang Yu also said, “That’s right. I’ve long heard that Senior Sister Qing is extremely intelligent. Now that I’ve seen her today, it really lives up to the reputation.”

Hearing such praise, a faint smile appeared on Yu Aoqing’s cold face.

Yun Xia and the other five were feasting over there, and Yang Kai and the other two ordinary people were not idle either, constantly stuffing fruits into their mouths.

There was a row of fruit trees here that had borne a lot of fruits. The eight people ate and took, leaving all the fruits wiped out.

After being full and satiated, they set off again. Perhaps because Yang Kai had taken on a lot of risks when testing the fruits, this time the person leading the way in the front was still not him, but another ordinary person instead.

After walking for a short while, Qi Yuan suddenly pointed to the side and said, “Look over there, there’s something flashing！”

Everyone looked in the direction he pointed, and indeed found that there was a glimmering light in the grass over there.

“Go and take a look.” Yu Aoqing issued the order.

Soon, everyone arrived thirty zhang away from the flashing place. Yu Aoqing’s cautiousness was once again manifested. As usual, she asked an ordinary person to go over and test it, while she herself remained in place.
