Volume One, Chapter 355
Zhao Fu searched for the fifth piece of Sea Demon Jade and arrived at a reef-covered area. Seeing a stone house ahead, he flew over.
A frail old man emerged from the house. Watching Zhao Fu land before him, he asked, "What do you need?"
Zhao Fu smiled. "I want the Sea Demon Jade in your possession!"

The old man narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhao Fu. "Is that so?"
Zhao Fu said with a smile, "Try me if you don't believe it!"

Zhao Fu smiled. "I have already collected four pieces.
