722: Chapter 722: The Final Secret of This Island 722: Chapter 722: The Final Secret of This Island Su Hui stared at the flaming large wooden ship in front of her, filled with despair and helplessness.
Just when everyone else felt the sa anguish, a door in the nearby wall opened, catching everyone’s attention.
With a serious look on his face, Gu Fan stumbled in carrying an unconscious Lin Xi, followed by Qian Feng.
“Brother!” Gu Ling rushed over imdiately upon seeing them.
Noticing Gu Fan’s expression and Lin Xi’s frail state, she quickly asked, “What happened to Lin Xi, what on earth happened?”
“Take care of Lin Xi for .” Gu Fan handed Lin Xi to Gu Ling, and then without another word, he headed towards the burning ship.
Everyone stared at Gu Fan, puzzled by his actions, but felt sothing was greatly amiss.
Upon seeing Qian Feng, Qian Ying imdiately asked, “What the hell happened, big sister?
Why does second sister look so terrible?”
With a regretful look, Qian Feng explained, “Gu Fan had a lot of his Qi drained by the Wandering Sea Ghosts and ran out of vitality.
And Qian Ye, being the fool that he is, gave his own life force to Gu Fan.
That’s why they’re in this state.”
Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked.
Apart from Su Hui, who had known earlier, no one realized just how dire Gu Fan’s condition was.
Su Hui walked over to Gu Fan.
“What’s the plan?”
“No plan.
Just rolling the dice like before.” After saying that, Gu Fan let out a self-deprecating laugh before turning back to ask, “Xiaoling, tell .
Have you sensed anything?”
“I have not sensed any danger.” Gu Ling’s response caught Qian Feng’s attention, making her even more certain of Gu Ling’s extraordinary talent.
Now, Gu Fan looked at the burning ship with interest, a corner of his mouth raised, continuing to approach it, entirely unafraid of the blazing flas.
Lu Yi beca worried, “Gu Fan, this is not a ga.
Return quickly!”
Su Hui also felt danger, but just when she tried to pull Gu Fan back, a woman in red reappeared, taunting him, “What, are you not content, to die here in this hidden base?
Do you prefer to perish within these flas?”
“How could I?
I plan to make it out alive.” Gu Fan’s grin was full of aningfulness, giving an impression of absolute certainty.
The woman in red didn’t seem bothered, “The base is about to collapse and there’s no way out.
I don’t know where your confidence cos from.”
“Because you won’t let anything happen to .” After he finished speaking, Gu Fan continued to walk forward.
“I trust Xiaoling’s judgnt.
If she says there’s no danger, then there’s no danger.
The violent shaking of the base is just your deliberate attempt to scare us.
It won’t collapse.
Plus, your duty is to protect this place, not destroy it.”
At these words, the woman in red froze before her face turned sour.
“Very well.
It is indeed impressive that the Destiny Stone chose you.
You definitely have so tricks up your sleeve.” As she finished speaking, the shaking of the secret base ceased.
The crisis was lifted.
Everyone was in disbelief.
They had all felt so hopeless monts ago.
The woman in red still seed to have the upper hand.
“Even if this place doesn’t collapse, you still can’t leave.
I completely control this place.”
“Correct, you do control this place.
But as long as we board this ship, we can leave and won’t need to deal with you anymore.” After finishing, Gu Fan continued onward, getting closer to the burning flas.
The woman in red beca alard.
“Gu Fan, what are you doing?
Do you think your mortal body can extinguish these flas?”
“I can’t extinguish these flas, but you can.
You wouldn’t just stand by and watch die, would you?” As Gu Fan said this, the corners of his mouth lifted, as though he was expecting the woman in red to do sothing.
The woman in red huffed coldly, “Why should I extinguish the flas?
Why should I save you?
Give a reason.”
“Because I was chosen by the Destiny Stone, which was created here.
And your duty is to protect this place.
Simply said, you’re defending the wishes of everyone on this base.
If the people of the base didn’t want outsiders to enter, you would keep them out.
If the people of this base hoped that soday the Destiny Stone would guide soone to complete a certain mission, then you would definitely not let the chosen one co to harm.
Am I right?” Gu Fan’s words were emphatic and decisive, as he stared solemnly at the woman in red.
“Don’t walk any further, you’ll really burn to death.” The woman in red spoke casually, but her words held a hint of acknowledgnt, as though Gu Fan had understood correctly.
As she t Gu Fan’s gaze, the woman in red asked another question, “How do you know the Destiny Stone chose you for so mission?”
Gu Fan forced a laugh, “After everything that’s happened, all with a strong connection to the ancient Super Civilization, and knowing that the Destiny Stone was created by said civilization, this is what I deduced.
On top of that, I was nearly turned into a Wandering Sea Ghost by Lisa, and I almost died at the hands of Qian Feng both tis, the secret base violently shook and saved at the last mont.
Plus, there was one ti when I almost t disaster, I saw your terrified expression.
I knew then that you didn’t want anything to happen to .”
Upon hearing his words, the woman in red was quiet for a while, before finally releasing a laugh that seed to ease her tension, “Then what’s your attitude now?”
“Suddenly, I beca interested.
I want to know what mission the ancient Super Civilization wanted to fulfill.
So, I don’t need this anymore.” Gu Fan took out a chip from his pocket, and threw it into the sea of flas.
The woman in red nodded approvingly, and then the ceiling began to spray a large amount of water, dousing the flas.
“This large wooden ship is not made of ordinary wood.
The flas cannot destroy it.
I wish you a safe return.” After saying that, Lisa vanished.
Upon witnessing this, everyone was stunned, then burst into cheers, rushing towards the wooden ship.
“Oh my god, we can finally go ho.
Long live return ho!” Lu Yi got on board, unable to help but break into a dance.
Gu Fan, Su Hui, and everyone else boarded the ship.
The large wooden ship then started moving, surging towards the passage, plunging into the sea and, just like before, surfacing at sea level.
Just as everyone was looking forward to a smooth return journey, Gu Ling spotted sothing and her face changed color.
She pointed towards the direction of the island, “Everyone, look quickly!”
“What?” As everyone turned to look, their faces changed in shock.
They could hardly believe their eyes.
A giant sea turtle, with the island on its back, was propelling itself through the sea with strong, purposeful strokes.
Only then did everyone understand the true secret of the island’s mobility in the sea— an absolutely astounding revelation.
As everyone was still processing this, watching the giant turtle growing further and further away, the large wooden ship carried everyone and erged on the ocean’s surface.
Right at that mont, Xiaohu was in a daze on the deck.
Seeing everyone pop out of the sea, he imdiately started waving his hands in joy, calling out everyone’s nas.
