Chapter 1602: Chapter 1602
After the banquet, everything was hosted with resources painstakingly gathered from the three pirate islands.
Long Fei didn’t spend a penny, yet he made friends with a group of Loose Cultivators, leaving behind a reputation of great righteousness on the sea.
Those cultivators who were on good terms with the Three Immortal Islands had eaten Long Fei’s food and drunk Long Fei’s beverages, so they felt ashamed to conduct reconnaissance on the island.
They only glanced around briefly before returning to report the situation to the Three Immortal Islands.
The Disciples of Jade Island were following the plan: some were busy repairing the ring road on the island, others were taking over the pirate assets, and three hundred warships remained docked on the island in batches without returning.
Preparations were being made to renovate the dock and use the three pirate islands as military bases in the future.
Long Fei looked at the map. These three pirates happened to be distributed in three directions from Jade Island.
Later they could serve as a defensive outer circle for Jade Island, forming a second island chain against the Demon Race.
Three days later, all the resources of the pirate Three Islands had been fully inventoried.
Long Fei instructed his people to return all the items registered from the plundering bills to the Loose Cultivators of various islands.
They left expressing endless gratitude, each one content.
The work on each island proceeded in an orderly fashion, with Long Fei assuming the role of a hands-off manager, leaving all these matters to Hua Qianmo.
He took Lin Yingying, Little Kirin, Chu Feng, Ji Wanyu, and Lin Shanshan on a tour around the islands.
Compared to Jade Island, the islands occupied by Sea King Sect, Sea Spirit Sect, and Pirate Sect had a larger area.
The island occupied by Sea King Sect was called Wave Island, where the surroundings were calm like the waves.
They previously engaged mainly in offshore smuggling trades, so they valued the choice of port highly.
This port was exceptional, surrounded by a massive bay providing shelter against sea storms.
Moreover, the water was very deep, with no reefs, making it perfect for docking ships.
Sea Spirit Sect previously excavated everywhere on the sea, similar to the Treasure Hunter Commandant on land.
They enjoyed life the most and found the island with the most beautiful scenery, called Silver Sand Island.
The island’s beaches were silver-white, surrounded by coconut trees, with no significant mountains, the highest point being just over a hundred meters, populated with coconut and bamboo groves.
Pirate Sect’s island was somewhat special, being a defensible island, difficult to attack, known as Hei Sha Island.
Around this island, there was only one suitable dock, and it was littered with reefs, so a slight distraction would cause a shipwreck.
The island was entirely shrouded in darkness, with sparse vegetation.
The ground wasn’t sandy but a rare maritime mining area.
Underneath the mountains, Pirate Sect had excavated several ore veins.
From what’s been dug so far, there was high-quality iron ore with minimal impurities, and it contained a mysterious divine substance, quite different from the normal iron ore on land.
There was also a smokeless coal mine, which was a high-quality deposit.
The coal looked crystal-like, black and shiny, and when ignited, it burned with a full flame without a hint of black smoke.
Pirate Sect did not value comfort but focused on plundering goods and forging weapons.
The cannons of the Three Sects were all made by the masters of Pirate Sect; however, their skills were too crude, still building simple smoothbore cannons, far incomparable to the modern cannons of the outside world.
Long Fei strolled around the island, observing that the resources here were sufficient for a millennium of excavation, later serving as a source of weapons for the Yin Yang Sect.
What he needed to do was not recruit many cultivators, but arm ordinary people.
After all, the physiques required for cultivators were too demanding, and perhaps only one out of ten thousand would possess a special physique.
Most people couldn’t even break through the Enlightenment Realm.
To enable ordinary people to fight against the Demon Race, scientific means had to be devised, with things like mecha warriors, beam guns, and gene modification; with these future weapons, even a child could be extremely lethal.
As night fell, the group stayed on Silver Sand Island where Sea Spirit Sect was located, gathering a pile of firewood for a barbecue.
Such rare peace made everyone feel content, as if they were on a mundane vacation in the Maldives.
For the past few days, Long Fei had been busy handling official matters.
Ji Wanyu hadn’t had a chance to speak with him since she arrived.
She found an opportunity and, when no one was around, stealthily approached Long Fei whispering mysteriously, "Brother-in-law, something big has happened!"
Long Fei was fishing in the sea and, hearing her sudden exclamation, looked around and raised an eyebrow, "What’s the matter?"
Ji Wanyu cautiously used spiritual power to transmit, "I think my sister might be pregnant."
Long Fei stared at her blankly, breaking into a sweat.
Ji Wanyu pulled his arm and urged, "Brother-in-law, don’t be . I think my sister must have acted wrongly because she was confused. Please don’t confront her; talk to her kindly. I don’t want to see you both torn apart."
Long Fei gave a dry cough and asked, "How long has she been pregnant?"
Ji Wanyu replied, "Not long, less than a month."
Long Fei chuckled. This timing matched when he left, who else could it belong to but him.
He told Ji Wanyu, "Don’t go around telling anyone. Keep it a secret for your sister, I won’t blame her."
"Brother-in-law, you’re truly a good man!"
Ji Wanyu was filled with emotions, not expecting such a dignified Sect Master to remain calm even after being cuckolded.
She feared that once revealed, Long Fei would go mad on a killing spree!
She pondered for a moment, feeling something was amiss.
The saying goes, the deeper the love, the greater the hate.
Long Fei’s calmness—could it be that he didn’t love her sister at all?
Disappointment clouded her as she asked Long Fei, "Have you ever truly loved my sister?"
"What do you mean by that?"
Long Fei cast a net and caught a tuna, throwing it towards the beach behind him.
Ji Wanyu got splashed with water, wiping her face with her small hands, she murmured to him, "My sister gave you a cuckold, and you don’t blame her at all? Isn’t it because you don’t care about her?" Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚⚫𝙣𝙚𝙩
Long Fei, holding onto the fishing net, looked at the silly girl with a smile, whispering to her, "Don’t overthink it. The child your sister is having is mine, so of course, I’m not angry!"
Ji Wanyu’s eyes widened, and she was struck dumb.
She stared at Long Fei incredulously, then suddenly hugged his arm and laughed joyfully, "I knew it, I knew something was up. You two are so bad, kept me in the dark!"
Long Fei covered her mouth, indicating she should remain calm.
Such matters couldn’t be spread around; if Lin Yingying found out, she’d kill him for sure.
Understanding the seriousness of the situation, Ji Wanyu smirked and went to grill the fish Long Fei had caught, feeling relieved after resolving this issue.
Lin Shanshan saw her chatting and laughing with Long Fei and curiously asked, "What are you guys talking about, why so happy?"
Ji Wanyu glanced at her, then sneaked a look at Lin Yingying, shaking her head and lying, "Oh, nothing much. I asked your brother-in-law to invest in my project for walkie-talkies, and he agreed."
Lin Shanshan was delighted, as she and Ji Wanyu were just discussing this with plans to develop walkie-talkies in South Yangtze Prefecture first, then expand into mobile phones, launching their modern communications company.
Chu Feng chimed in, "Can I invest too?"
Ji Wanyu giggled, "Of course, our Future Tech Group welcomes all."
Lin Yingying listened and laughed heartily; she had no interest in enterprises in this life, having no further ambition.
Now she just wanted to care for the child in her belly and the Little Kirin, planning to establish a school, giving the children of the Yin Yang Sect disciples a place to study.
