Chapter 686: Chapter 281: Guess Whether I’m a Man or a Woman_2

Not far away.

There were experts from the [Heaven and Earth Alliance] hidden in the shadows, their eyes flickering as they coldly glanced towards Elder Lie Huo.

To Elder Lie Huo, these people seemed to be of little consequence.

Or rather, these people were simply beneath his notice.

"By my calculations, it’s a little over a month until the three-year deadline..."

Elder Lie Huo’s heart surged.

Once the three-year deadline was up, the Gang Leader would be beyond rescue.

"Jiang Shi... Jiang Shi, can you truly arrive in time by the end of the three-year period..."

He muttered to himself.

Suddenly, footsteps sounded.

They brought a long shadow, casting towards Elder Lie Huo.

The long shadow carried an indescribable eerie aura, like a strange prison, trapping one’s heart and preventing escape.

Elder Lie Huo paused, his brows furrowed, instinctively sensing something was amiss, and he lifted his gaze sharply, looking across.

But at that look, his eyes instantly narrowed.

"Jiang Shi!"

"Elder Lie Huo!"

Jiang Shi’s voice rang out, "Where is the Gang Leader?"

Elder Lie Huo took a deep breath and said, "Have you found a way to save the Gang Leader?" 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

"It should be about ready. How would we know if we don’t try?"

Jiang Shi asked.

"Alright, then follow me!"

Elder Lie Huo, suppressing his shock, turned and walked towards a distant location.

He really hadn’t expected it, having just thought about Jiang Shi, and Jiang Shi appeared before him in an instant.

After years of no contact, this man’s cultivation had deepened further.

At least, even he hadn’t noticed how Jiang Shi had appeared.

In an unremarkable courtyard.

Elder Lie Huo walked over, gently pushed open the front courtyard gate, then lightly knocked three times on the wall, causing a hidden secret chamber to slowly open.

Inside, a pungent medicinal scent immediately spread out from here...

Jiang Shi’s brow furrowed, his gaze swept around.

Inside the secret chamber, a burly figure sat cross-legged, motionless, with eyes closed, seemingly sitting there for years.

Jiang Shi’s gaze focused, scenes of the past flashed through his mind like a slideshow.

He exhaled softly and said, "Let me try."

Stepping forward, gazing at the Gang Leader of the Sea Whale Gang, Yuan Fuhai, Jiang Shi raised his hand and pressed lightly at the area behind him. His whole body’s thick power surged like a torrent into the Gang Leader’s body.

Intense light radiated instantly, enveloping the Gang Leader of the Sea Whale Gang.

Simultaneously, a pungent odor began to gradually emanate from the Gang Leader’s body...

Thousands of pores seemed to ooze black liquid...

The poison that had originally accumulated in his body was fully expelled under Jiang Shi’s powerful force...

After several hours passed.

The commotion within the secret chamber finally subsided gradually.

The entire floor was covered with concentrated poison, emitting a pungent odor.

The originally motionless Yuan Fuhai suddenly opened his eyelids, but his face flushed red as he spat out a mouthful of blood.

Elder Lie Huo’s expression changed, exclaiming, "Gang Leader..."

Huff, huff...

Yuan Fuhai gasped heavily, showing surprise in his eyes as he looked around and said, "Where is this place? Where is that brat Yang Tiandao?"

"Gang Leader, you are truly awake, are you unharmed?"

Elder Lie Huo was incredibly excited, saying, "We’ve left the Southern Wilderness, entering overseas islands. You have been asleep for three years, all thanks to Jiang Shi for waking you up!"

"What?"

Yuan Fuhai’s pupils contracted, "I’ve been asleep for three years?"

But soon his mind churned, and he remembered everything.

Indeed, he had been severely poisoned and ambushed. He had no choice but to unleash a forbidden technique to scatter his enemies, then lost consciousness, knowing nothing further.

Unexpectedly, three years had passed!

Suddenly, he looked at Jiang Shi and said, "Young man, I was right about you. Good, really good, this old man owes you a favor."

"Gang Leader, you’re too kind. Without your nurturing back then, how could I be where I am today?"

Jiang Shi replied.

Yuan Fuhai suddenly showed suspicion, scrutinizing Jiang Shi closely, his pupils contracted, and he gasped, "Jiang Shi, could it be you’ve also reached the Blood Pill?"

"More or less."

Jiang Shi smiled slightly.

Blood Pill...

That was something from a distant past.

"What, Jiang Shi has also reached the Blood Pill?"

Elder Lie Huo showed surprise, immediately looking towards Jiang Shi.

"Gang Leader, what are your plans next? Honestly, you’d better stay hidden on this island."

Jiang Shi said softly, "Now, Great Heng has long changed. The Alien Race has emerged, with treacherous changes, the [Thirty-Six Alliance] is long gone, Yang Tiandao is dead, you’d better not return."

"The Alien Race beyond the Primordial Great Mountains has come out?"

Yuan Fuhai was surprised again.

"Yes."

Jiang Shi nodded lightly, suddenly a thought crossed his mind, and he directly imprinted the significant events of this time as a spiritual mark into the hearts of Yuan Fuhai and Elder Lie Huo.

Their bodies shook as they quickly absorbed the information.

At this sight, their brows furrowed, their hearts were alarmed, and their expressions quickly turned solemn.

After a long while.

Yuan Fuhai sighed deeply.

"It’s unimaginable... in just three short years, the outside world has changed so drastically..."

"Indeed, the Golden Spirit Sect is just gone like that..."

Elder Lie Huo sighed.

"Jiang Shi, you’re right. Given the current state of Great Heng, even if we return, it would be to no avail."

Yuan Fuhai chuckled bitterly and sighed, "We might as well hide on this island and live out our remaining days!"
