Lin Chen looked at Yuan Tiangang and said calmly, "Alright, tell your n to retreat."
"Yes!" Yuan Tiangang nodded.
Yuan Tiangang leapt back onto the warship.
At this mont, all the M Country officers were dumbfounded.
"You have three minutes to retreat to M Country, or die!"
The officers had just witnessed Yuan Tiangang's power, and hearing his words sent a chill through their hearts. They quickly retreated according to Lin Chen's instructions.
anwhile, over at E Country, Lin Chen had Long Lao deliver a ssage, successfully getting them to retreat back to E Country.
The world war crisis had finally been averted.
Lin Chen exhaled deeply, suddenly rembering sothing.
"Tiangang, do you know my father's whereabouts?"
Lin Chen knew that Yuan Tiangang held a significant position in the martial arts world over the years, possibly possessing information even Lin Chen was unaware of.
"Your father should be with Xu Fu," Yuan Tiangang replied solemnly.
"Xu Fu?" Lin Chen felt the na was sowhat familiar.
Yuan Tiangang said, "Xu Fu was the Taoist sent by Emperor Qin Shi Huang to find the Immortal Pill. He actually found it but didn't give it to the Emperor, choosing instead to consu it himself."
"Xu Fu?" Lin Chen was sowhat speechless. This guy seed older than Yuan Tiangang; it was clear he would be even more formidable and difficult to deal with.
"Xu Fu has been at the God Realm since the Tang Dynasty; he should have understood the Apocalypse years ago, yet oddly hasn't left Earth for the Immortal Realm," Yuan Tiangang said solemnly.
"Do you know where my father is being held?" Lin Chen asked.
Yuan Tiangang nodded, "A few years ago, I received intelligence about your father. He was being held in Bermuda."
"Bermuda!" Lin Chen was montarily stunned.
Bermuda is Earth's most mysterious place, and Lin Chen hadn't expected it to be Xu Fu's lair.
"Gather your people; let's raid Xu Fu's Bermuda," Lin Chen said with determination.
His father being captured had always been a source of anxiety for him. Now, he had finally received news about his father, and even if Bermuda were a perilous place, Lin Chen had to venture there.
Lin Chen returned to Hua Xia and saw Xue Ying and the others.
Yet, as he scanned the crowd, he suddenly paused.
"Where's Xiaowen?" Lin Chen knew that with his return, Xiaowen would have definitely greeted him.
Upon hearing Zhao Xiaowen's na, the expressions of the few won showed signs of sadness.
"What happened?" Lin Chen asked.
At this mont, Xue Ying stepped forward and handed a letter to Lin Chen.
Lin Chen opened the letter, realizing it was from Zhao Xiaowen.
"Brother Lin Chen, I'm leaving, going to the place I belong. eting you has been a delight, and every day with you has been my happiest. Now I must go. You have Ying, Xiaohua, and Qin Lan, so missing
won't make a difference. Forget , perhaps this is our fate—destined yet unpaired, love yet unable to accompany. Even if you reach the Immortal Realm one day, don't co looking for , just consider
a dream, a speck of dust..."
Lin Chen read the letter, holding it tightly.
The letter was stained with tears, indicating Xiaowen wrote it while crying.
"What exactly happened?" Lin Chen's eyes carried a deep coldness.
Xue Ying sighed, "Lin Chen, two people ca that day, taking Xiaowen away. Their strength was too formidable; we couldn't stop them."
Lin Chen furrowed his brows, finally understanding why Zhao Xiaowen wouldn't let him search for her. The people were from the Immortal Realm, and she worried Lin Chen would be no match for them, hence she emphasized forgetting her in the letter.
"Xiaowen, I, Lin Chen, believe in my own effort, not fate. No matter how powerful those who took you are, I will find you."
Seeing Lin Chen silent, Xue Ying was sowhat worried, "Lin Chen, are you alright?"
Lin Chen shook his head, "I'm fine. By the way, did Xiaohua go to the Immortal Realm as well?"
"Yes!" Xue Ying nodded.
Lin Chen took a deep breath, "Alright, let's leave it for now. I will find them in the Immortal Realm, but I have sothing else to handle currently."
...
In Hua Xia, Mount Kunlun, within a spacious hall, several figures sat at the table.
These people were Hua Xia's martial arts elites: Zhang Sanfeng, Li Chunfeng, Yuan Tiangang.
"Heh, Yuan Tiangang, we haven't t in a long ti, it's surprising your abilities have beco so strong," Li Chunfeng said to Yuan Tiangang with a smile.
Yuan Tiangang smilingly nodded, "Back then, we collaborated, yet due to differing views, went our separate ways. But it's unexpected we can cooperate once again after a millennium."
As they spoke, suddenly footsteps echoed from the entrance, followed by a graceful figure rushing in.
The figure, without hesitation, lunged towards Lin Chen.
"Brother Chen, I finally see you again." Seeing the strange looks from the elderly n, Lin Chen was rather speechless.
"Why are you here as well?" Lin Chen asked, puzzled.
Alice smiled, "I must help Brother Chen!"
At this mont, a regal woman walked in, and Lin Chen imdiately recognized her as Alice's mother, Elsa.
"Senior Elsa, you're here too," Lin Chen greeted with a smile.
"I had no choice; my daughter seems bewitched by you, willing to risk everything to bring
here to assist," Elsa said helplessly.
"I surely rember Senior Elsa's kindness towards ," Lin Chen said with a grin.
Afterwards, so of Yuan Tiangang's subordinates also arrived.
However, Lin Chen knew Yuan Tiangang had complex subordinates; under Yuan Tiangang's combined force and persuasion, they all beca Lin Chen's devoted followers.
Lin Chen briefly introduced the intel Yuan Tiangang possessed.
Yuan Tiangang said solemnly, "Bermuda is inherently a wondrous place; there lie many shipwrecks, seemingly created by Xu Fu's design, evidently wanting nobody to disturb that place."
So the Bermuda mystery remains unsolved year after year.
"Everyone mustn't underestimate this operation; Bermuda is foggy year-round. If caught in the mist, all navigation software fails."
"We'll have to rely on our senses to go in," Lin Chen said solemnly.
Lin Chen knew his ti was similarly tight, fearing Xu Fu already knew about Yuan Tiangang defecting to Lin Chen. If discovered, there's a high chance of secretly relocating his father.
Then all efforts would be for naught.
Yuan Tiangang nodded in agreent, "Xu Fu is suspicious by nature; upon receiving information, he's likely to relocate the master's father, so we must act promptly."
"Alright! Let's depart to Bermuda now; I'm going to face Xu Fu," Lin Chen said with determination.
