After Ye Wanwan said that, Haitang's expression shifted. "Um … Why?"
Ye Wanwan was silent for a long time.
"Haitang, you … don't need to know too much about this matter. Just do as I say. I need to verify it," Ye Wanwan said.
"Alright, I understand." Haitang agreed. "I'll go back and prepare first."
"Thank you." Ye Wanwan nodded lightly.
As soon as Haitang left, a light voice was heard from behind Ye Wanwan. "Xiao Feng, long time no see."
This voice was unfamiliar yet incredibly familiar to Ye Wanwan.
Ye Wanwan reflexively turned around.
A faint smile hung on the man's face as he stared at Ye Wanwan with his long and narrow eyes.
The man in front of her seemed to exude a scholarly aura from his very bones.
"Brother Ziran?!"
Ye Wanwan was startled when she saw the man but quickly regained her wits.
Ye Wanwan naturally wasn't unfamiliar with this man. He was her sworn brother, Wen Ziran.
"It really is you."
Wen Ziran chuckled lightly and slowly walked toward Ye Wanwan.
Soon, Wen Ziran reached Ye Wanwan. "I haven't seen you for so many years, but your voice hasn't changed. I just don't know if your appearance has changed."
"I haven't. I'm more or less the same," Ye Wanwan replied with a smile.
In Ye Wanwan's memory, Wen Ziran was born blind and couldn't see anything.
"Brother Ziran, when were you captured?"
Ye Wanwan asked with a frown.
Although First Elder of the Fearless Alliance had speculated earlier, Ye Wanwan didn't expect to actually see Wen Ziran here.
"Not too long ago … That's not important. What about you? Where have you been all these years? Why did you leave the Fearless Alliance without a word?" Wen Ziran asked.
Ye Wanwan didn't explain in detail.
Ye Wanwan and Wen Ziran hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they chatted quite a bit as they sat on the side.
Ye Wanwan and Wen Ziran had known each other for more than a decade, so Ye Wanwan understood him very well. With Wen Ziran's strength, he absolutely wouldn't have been captured and brought to a place like this if he wasn't blind.
After learning about Ye Wanwan's plan, Wen Ziran was startled. This meant it wouldn't be long before they successfully left this island.
"Actually, I don't think the Martial Arts Union has any ill intentions toward the people captured on the island," Wen Ziran quietly said to Ye Wanwan a while later.
Ye Wanwan furrowed her brows. Wen Ziran's thoughts were similar to Ji Xiuran's.
"Most of the people imprisoned on this island are people who brazenly rejected the direct descendants' invitation. I don't think it's a coincidence … Furthermore, the Martial Arts Union wouldn't capture us for no reason," Wen Ziran said.
Ye Wanwan didn't refute this, but she didn't agree with it either.
It was still unclear what the Martial Arts Union's goal was.
However, there was one thing. Capturing everyone on the island, restricting everyone's freedom, and imprisoning them for an indefinite period of time was not a good deed in itself.
"Say, don't tell me you don't want to go out?" Ye Wanwan glanced at Wen Ziran.
Wen Ziran shook his head and said with a smile, "Why would I? Who wants to be imprisoned on this island? It'd naturally be best if we could leave."
"I'm very curious — with your strength, how were you captured and brought here?" Ye Wanwan asked Wen Ziran.
"Actually, you can't say I was captured and brought here." Wen Ziran shook his head. "I previously accepted a mission to investigate this island, but I encountered people from the Martial Arts Union guarding the island's surroundings before I even set foot on the island. I was tricked onto the island."
Ye Wanwan: "…"
