Chapter 1566: Chapter 1566: Someone on the Island

Chu Feng exclaimed in surprise, immediately drawing Lin Yingying, Shen Feng, and Shen Yan’er over.

They thought there might be treasures in the hall, so they all went over to take a look.

Who knew it was empty inside.

“What are you shouting about? I thought there was treasure inside!”

Lin Yingying rolled her eyes at Chu Feng.

Chu Feng entered the hall and, gazing at the intricate architecture, arrogantly said, “Ordinary! This young master is appreciating the exquisite craftsmanship of ancient architecture.”

Everyone laughed and scolded, then moved on to admire other places since there was nothing inside.

Long Fei and Lin Yingying found a pavilion to sit down in. Though they were under the sea, it was as bright as daylight inside without a hint of oppression.

Moreover, the Spiritual Energy around was abundant, making this place an excellent sanctuary for cultivation.

Long Fei took out the Enlightenment Tea Leaves from Mount Wudang, brewed them, and filled a cup for Lin Yingying. He stared at her sternly and said, “From now on, no more adventuring for you, understand?”

Lin Yingying took a sip of tea, looked at him, and laughed lightly, “You want me to be a housewife?”

“Wouldn’t that be nice?”

Long Fei blamed her for being too reckless just now, as without various fortuitous protections, Lin Yingying might have been in danger.

Lin Yingying playfully replied, “Not every woman likes to be a housewife after marriage. I used to be your boss, and I still am. I’m the CEO in the mundane world, and here, I am too. Your bunch of disciples will be under my management from now on.”

Long Fei smiled, looked at the scenery around, and said: “Alright, this is your sanctuary, so naturally, you make the decisions.”

Lin Yingying raised her cup with a smile and clinked it with Long Fei’s, using tea as a substitute for wine.

Long Fei knew her stubbornness and dedication to her career. If she had nothing to do, idleness wouldn’t suit her.

Now the mundane world was to be fully migrated here, and settling on the mainland wasn’t the best plan.

Although they had established a foothold on Mount Songshan back on land, the people there were originally disciples of this world.

Outsiders would inevitably stir conflict upon arrival.

Furthermore, the various sects on the mainland saw him as a thorn in their side.

If he were to add more people to the Songshan Sect, it would surely alert the other major sects.

Thirdly, the Demon Calamity was about to break out.

The mainland would surely be the fiercest battleground, with rivers of blood flowing by then, and no one knew how bad it would get.

Therefore, he needed a backup plan, leaving a reserve force overseas for unexpected needs.

Outside here was an island, not small in size.

Long Fei planned to go out and have a look later. If suitable, it could serve as a base.

In peacetime, they could train outside, and in wartime, they could hide behind the Crystal Barrier.

Lin Yingying finished her tea, spoke seriously to Long Fei, “We came to this world in haste, without tidying up matters in the mundane world. The Domain Gate we entered through has closed, so we need to find another way back. Once the home matters are settled, we can return.”

Long Fei replied, “Rest assured. There’s a space rift on Mount Tai, which won’t close yet. Once we explore the outer island, I’ll take you back.”

Lin Yingying nodded, not afraid that the Crystal Palace would be taken by others.

This place is not only protected by a powerful Formation outside but also with powerful restrictions beneath the palace.

Now that the palace has acknowledged its master, it can’t be taken by others.

After a while, Chu Feng, Shen Feng, and Shen Yan’er finished their tour and came back to sit with them.

Long Fei asked, “Did you find anything?”

Chu Feng shrugged and sighed, “It’s completely emptied. There’s not even furniture inside.”

Shen Feng laughed, “Brother Chu is too greedy. This is a peerless treasure, comparable to True Immortal Level. Just having this Crystal Palace is a heavenly blessing!”

Shen Yan’er teased, “He not only wants furniture, but probably also wants a few maids!”

“Alas, since when has Miss Shen become a worm in my stomach?” ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ 𝗻𝗼𝘷𝗲𝗹•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝕟𝕖𝕥

Young Master Chu looked at Shen Yan’er with a smile, surprised that his reputation had reached even this lady, who knew his personality so well.

Shen Yan’er wrinkled her nose at him, shyly hiding behind her brother.

Everyone laughed heartily, fortunate to be sitting there sipping tea after their narrow escape from the brink of death moments ago.

Long Fei poured more tea for everyone and curiously asked Shen Feng, “How did you and Yan’er get to the seabed? Was it also for this underwater palace?”

Shen Feng replied, “No, we followed Ashiya Douman to the seabed. He was developing a Demonizer army in Dongying, and we wiped out a group. We couldn’t catch him this time, but he still managed to escape.”

Shen Yan’er, blushing, said, “Anyway, thank you all this time.”

“Since when has Miss Shen learned to be polite?”

Long Fei teased, making Shen Yan’er’s face even redder, as she shyly gave him a side-eye.

He asked the siblings, “What are your plans? Will you return to the mundane world, or continue cultivating in this world?”

Shen Feng said, “We still need to go back to the mundane world, as things aren’t all squared away yet, and we need to stay longer.”

After saying this, he looked at his sister and added, “Yan’er could stay, however.”

Shen Yan’er hurriedly said, “Brother, what are you talking about? I want to stay with you.”

Lin Yingying laughed and teased her, “Don’t worry; your brother didn’t say he’d sell you to us. If you’re going back to the mundane world, we are, too.”

“Why are you all bullying me!”

Shen Yan’er truly felt she couldn’t talk with them anymore, so she got up and left to wander in the nearby garden.

Everyone felt joy at her shy demeanor.

Not only Long Fei and the other two, but even Shen Feng felt his sister was a bit odd.

Usually, she wasn’t this shy around men, but only in front of Long Fei did she show a bit more of a little girl’s demeanor.

Long Fei asked him, “Brother Shen, what are your plans after dealing with matters in the mundane world? Will you return to Mount Shu to continue cultivating?”

This had always troubled Long Fei, as he and Mount Shu were now at odds.

Having Shen Feng and Shen Yan’er around would make them future enemies.

Shen Feng understood Long Fei’s implication and said solemnly, “Both my sister and I have received the legacy from Mount Shu. As the saying goes, ‘A teacher for a day is a father for life,’ so we can never betray our sect. Even if there are many wrongs with Mount Shu, we still must prioritize its interests. However, Mount Shu is Mount Shu, and our friendship is our friendship. Unless absolutely necessary, we won’t make things difficult for you.”

This topic felt heavy, as no one knows what the future holds.

Chu Feng changed the subject, “Alright, why worry about big sects? We’ll deal with future events in the future. Let’s go breathe some fresh air and check out the outside island after finishing our tea.”

Long Fei and Lin Yingying exchanged smiles, understanding Shen Feng’s point, and said nothing further.

After finishing their tea, everyone got up and headed out together.

The inner and outer worlds were entirely different—a warm sun bathed them as soon as they reached the ocean’s surface, making them feel the vastness and beauty of the world.

The island ahead was surrounded by lush green trees, comparable in size to Penglai Island in the outside world.

The central mountain peaked at a thousand meters, spreading out in slopes, encircled by a ring of beach.

The stones above were all blue jade-like, creating a beautiful scene many times more unique than islands in the Maldives.

Such wondrous islands are scattered throughout the seas in this world and are actually not uncommon.

It’s just that Long Fei and the others had never seen one before, and as they toured the void, they were utterly amazed.

They went together to the central part of the island and found traces of human activity.

There seemed to be a Taoist temple with a grand hall, pavilion, fake mountains and lakes, and even specially-planted exotic flowers and grasses!
