Moreover, although the goods that Wei Zhaotong had entrusted to them this time were extremely valuable, they weren’t too big in size. Even if the four of them were included, two flying spirit beasts would be enough to handle them. No matter how one looked at it, it was much more cost-effective than going by sea, right?

The two looked at Lin Yi in disdain. They didn’t want to talk to him at first, but they remembered Qi Wenhan’s special instructions before they left. In the end, they could only patiently explain.

“The saliva ROC Island is only a few dozen miles away from the southern island. Not only is there miasma and fog, but there are also many powerful vicious birds and spirit beasts in the nearby airspace. If an ordinary flying spirit beast flies into their territory, it is very likely that it will be attacked. At that time, it will be a living target and simply seeking death.” Li Yanji curled his lips and said.

“but, is there no danger in the sea?” lin yi blinked. the spirit beasts were scary, but from what he knew, the sea beasts weren’t easy to deal with either.

“not bad, there’s no danger in the sea.” li yanji looked at lin yi in disdain before continuing to explain,”although the sea beasts wreak havoc in the sea, they never dare to approach the southern island. therefore, there have never been any sea beasts in the sea region near the southern island.”

“i see. thank you for your guidance, brother li.” lin yi nodded in thanks.

Li Yanji’s disdainful expression eased a little. He nodded slightly and didn’t say anything.

Lin Yi didn’t really care about that-he was thinking about what that thing had told him before. The spirit beast clan claimed to rule over all the spirit beasts in the world, but the other powerful spirit beasts on the other islands might not acknowledge it, but they’d never conquered any sea beasts.

Between the spirit beast clan and the sea beast clan, well water does not interfere with river water. Since the southern island was the base camp of the spirit beast clan, it was reasonable that there were no sea beasts in the surrounding sea.

However, Lin Yi couldn’t help but be confused when he thought about the thing. It had been a long time since he last communicated with it, but he could feel that there was nothing wrong with it now. It seemed more like it was in closed-door training, which was why it was isolated from the world.

As for how its primordial spirit, which was residing in the Jade space, cultivated in seclusion, no one knew.

What Lin Yi was curious about now was how this thing would react to the fact that they were so close to the southern part of the island. It was an elder of the spirit beast clan, after all, and even if it didn’t complete its mission, it should at least have some ideas now that it was back.

But the problem was that the thing didn’t want to come out on its own, and Lin Yi didn’t want to disturb it. He’d have to wait until it came out.

As they spoke, the sailboat quickly left the harbor with the wind. What Lin Yi didn’t know was that not long after they left, Cheng Qitian and his men came chasing after them.

“Where’s that Ling Yi? Where is he?” Cheng Qitian asked as he scanned the busy dock, not seeing Lin Yi anywhere.

The power of the poison eyes mercenary group wasn’t to be underestimated. It had only been a few hours since Lin Yi used the alias Ling Yi, and he hadn’t even used it publicly, but his lackeys had already found out.

He had just received news from his minions that Ling Yi had appeared at the harbor again!

He didn’t expect that the opportunity to take revenge would come so soon!

Cheng kangtian didn’t say anything and immediately rushed over with Ah Kong. Just in case, he even brought a few Masters of the late golden core stage and above from the mercenary group. This way, even if Qi Wenhan was present, he wouldn’t be at a disadvantage.

“Young master Cheng, they’ve already left …” One of the men in charge of keeping an eye on the dock replied weakly.

“What? He left?” Cheng Qitian was instantly enraged. He kicked the man to the ground and cursed,””Useless trash. You saw them leave, but you didn’t stop them. You just stood there and watched?”

“Young … Young master Cheng … It’s not that I don’t want to, but I really don’t dare to. They’re using the Qitian bodyguard agency’s name to escort goods, and they’re goods from the Hong Chamber of Commerce. How could I be so bold …” The subordinate was on the verge of tears.

At a place like the sea Pier, if he were to attack Ling Yi directly, a normal person would think that he was robbing an escort. If he offended Qitian bodyguard agency and Hong Chamber of Commerce at the same time, how was he going to live in the future?

“Did you go on an escort mission?” Cheng Qitian’s expression softened. If that was the case, not to mention his underlings, even if he was present, he probably wouldn’t dare to. After all, even the poison eyes mercenary group wouldn’t dare to provoke these two families at the same time.

“Yes, yes, I saw it with my own eyes. It’s true.” The subordinate hurriedly nodded.

“hmph, then i’ll let you off this time.” cheng qitian snorted, then looked at the sea in the distance and growled with a ferocious face,””you’re going on an escort mission, right? very good, i don’t believe you won’t come back … wait, what did you say? they are the hong chamber of commerce’s escort?”

“yup!” the subordinate nodded.

“Hehe, that’s good …” Cheng qiantian said something strange and turned to leave.

………………

The journey continued for three consecutive days. Just as Qi Wenhan had said before they left, the journey was uneventful and they did not encounter any risks or accidents.

However, Lin Yi and the others didn’t let their guard down just because of this. The four of them took turns to guard the lookout tower, and the alarm would go off if there was any movement.

However, although there was an observation tower, the view was not good. The sea was completely covered by the sea fog, and the visibility was extremely low.

According to what Lin Yi knew, the fog would only get bigger and bigger if they kept going, and it would turn from a harmless fog to a poisonous one. This meant that they weren’t far from saliva Peng Island.

According to what li Guan said, when the time comes, they will have to take a special miasma avoiding pill to prevent the poison from being too deep. After all, even if it’s a Jindan stage expert, there is a limit to the resistance.

Of course, it was precisely because of the dense Sea Fog that this place was so inaccessible. Moreover, there was no need to worry about the attack of sea beasts, so there was almost no danger to speak of.

In addition to taking turns to keep watch and maintaining enough vigilance, the only thing the four of them had to do was to control the direction of the sailboat according to the pointer of the compass. For a Jindan stage master, it was not difficult to control the ship with a little practice.

At this time, Guan Zhiyuan was on duty on the lookout tower, li Yanji was in the cockpit controlling the ship, and Lin Yi and Huang xiaotao were standing on the deck, looking around.

The visibility was only 30 to 40 meters, and they were in the vast sea. What they could see on the deck was very limited. It was an extremely monotonous gray, and the only sound they could hear was the sound of water flowing. (To be continued.) ”
