More than ten days later, Ning Fa, Heavenly Treasure Immortal Merchant, and Luo Feixuan had already left the Qianmo Sea.
Ning Fa smiled at Luo Feixuan. "Fellow Daoist Luo, thank you for understanding."
On the way back, Ning Fa had asked Luo Feixuan to sign a high-grade spirit contract with him, binding her not to divulge any information whatsoever about that spirit island.
After all, Ning Fa intended to use it to settle his rear guard. Although he and Luo Feixuan were temporarily allies, he still had to be cautious.
Luo Feixuan had signed the spirit contract without hesitation, which was why Ning Fa said this.
Luo Feixuan smiled. "It is nothing. I am merely curious—why not remain on that exceptional spirit island and cultivate directly? Ordinary cultivators would never be able to find a place like that."
Ning Fa sighed. "I do not want to leave either, but you know that I have serious trouble hanging over me. If I do not leave, I may draw them there."
Ning Fa had already briefly mentioned his troubles before, yet Luo Feixuan had shown no intention of leaving. Clearly, in her eyes, Shen Cizhou posed the greater threat.
"Then where are we going next?" Luo Feixuan asked again.
A cold gleam flickered in Ning Fa's eyes. "Then we will return openly to the Five Spirits Sea. It is time to settle this score with Qinghong."
Now that he had confirmed Cheng Susu and the others were safe, there was no longer any need to conceal their tracks. It was also time to resolve the aftermath of the Abyssal Heavenly Pool.
And trouble arrived even faster than Ning Fa had expected.
Just a few days after they departed from a large island in the Haoqiong Sea Domain, they were caught up to.
