That person was Fang Mingsu, Ji Moqing's brother-in-law.
Zhou Wen didn't know Fang Mingsu, but Shiraishi Satomi had long known his name. If she had met Fang Mingsu in the past, Shiraishi Satomi would definitely have turned around and left under such circumstances. She definitely wouldn't have given Fang Mingsu a chance to see her.
However, with Zhou Wen beside her, Shiraishi Satomi didn't believe that she needed to run.
Although Fang Mingsu was very strong and was known as one of the four new War Gods of the Federation — his Guardian had already reached the Terror grade — Shiraishi Satomi didn't believe that he was stronger than Zhou Wen.
Ji Moqing lowered her head and didn't say a word. She had also witnessed Zhou Wen's strength. Even such a terrifying Ghost Train had been slapped to death by his Life Soul. Such strength was probably not much weaker than Fang Mingsu.
Now that she was in Zhou Wen's hands, she was afraid that Fang Mingsu would be threatened by Zhou Wen and company because of her.
"It's Fang Mingsu," Shiraishi Satomi whispered when she saw that Zhou Wen didn't seem to recognize Fang Mingsu.
So he's Fang Mingsu? Zhou Wen sized up Fang Mingsu and felt somewhat curious.
He was curious about Fang Mingsu not because of how strong he was or how famous he was, but because Fang Mingsu was one of the four new War Gods of the Federation with An Tianzuo.
Zhou Wen was mainly curious about how strong a person who could be as famous as An Tianzuo was.
Fang Mingsu clearly knew that Ji Moqing was here and had come for her.
The few ships finally stopped when they were a few hundred meters away from Zhou Wen and company. Fang Mingsu stood at the bow and said to Ji Moqing with a smile, "Little Qing, don't worry. Since I'm here, I won't let you suffer any more grievances."
"Brother-in-law." Ji Moqing's eyes immediately turned red.
After all, she was only seventeen or eighteen years old. Although she was rather scheming, it would be a lie to say that she wasn't afraid after being abducted overseas.
Now that Fang Mingsu was here, she finally had someone to rely on. She didn't have to hold on alone, so her emotions immediately surged.
"Don't cry." Fang Mingsu got off the boat and walked on the water step by step. The water didn't even wet the soles of his shoes.
"I've long heard of the Niten Flying Immortal-ryū. I yearn for the name of Sword Sage, but I never expected him to do such a thing. I'm really disappointed. I believe that Sword Sage Sei Gasakai only has an undeserved reputation. Otherwise, why would he do such a despicable thing?" Fang Mingsu said as he walked. Soon, he was less than ten meters away from Zhou Wen and company.
Upon hearing that Fang Mingsu had insulted Sei Gasakai, Shiraishi Satomi was instantly enraged. Although she knew that she was no match for him, she had to unsheathe her sword to defend her master's dignity.
Zhou Wen extended his hand to press down on Shiroishi Satomi's saber-wielding hand. He looked at Fang Mingsu and said, "There's more to this matter. It's not the Sword Sage's doing. Thankfully, this lady wasn't injured. Now that she's returned to you in one piece, why don't we let this matter rest?"
Fang Mingsu didn't answer. All she did was look at Ji Moqing and ask, "Little Qing, did they bully you?"
"No." Ji Moqing hurriedly shook her head.
If it were any other time, with Fang Mingsu as her backer, she would definitely add fuel to the fire and complain. However, after seeing how terrifying Zhou Wen was, she hoped that this matter would pass without further complications.
"I'll leave her to you. We'll take our leave." Zhou Wen gestured for Shiroishi Satomi to throw Ji Moqing at Fang Mingsu before turning the boat around to leave.
Fang Mingsu caught Ji Moqing and asked if she had suffered any grievances.
On the other side, the few boats blocked Zhou Wen and company's path.
"Sir, what's the meaning of this?" Zhou Wen asked Fang Mingsu.
Fang Mingsu didn't even look at Zhou Wen as he continued talking to Ji Moqing.
Many humans appeared on the boat. One of them was a burly man in a military uniform with a huge axe on his shoulder. He said loudly, "Is our marshal's sister someone you can capture and release as you wish? Are you willing if I capture your wife for a month and return her to you? "
"Then what do I have to do to satisfy you?" Zhou Wen felt that although the burly man's words were vulgar, he was right.
This matter was indeed Honn Shinsakura's fault. He couldn't be blamed for being overbearing.
"You can't make the decision on this matter. Let Sei Gasakai talk to us," said the bald man.
"Can you make the decision on the Niten Flying Immortal-ryū?" Zhou Wen asked Shiroishi Satomi.
Shiroishi first shook his head before nodding at Zhou Wen. "I can't make the decision, but you can. Before Master left, he instructed us that our lives were given by you. If you want it, you can take it back at any time."
Zhou Wen nodded and looked at the bald man. "I can make some decisions regarding the Niten Flying Immortal-ryū. I'll get Honn Shinsakura to apologize and let you vent your anger. He didn't do anything out of line. How about sparing his life?"
The bald man was slightly taken aback, as though he never expected Zhou Wen to be so easygoing. He couldn't help but look at Fang Mingsu.
Only then did Fang Mingsu raise his head and look at Zhou Wen. "You can't make the decision on this matter. Take me to Sei Gasakai. He has to give me an explanation personally."
Zhou Wen couldn't help but frown slightly. He looked at Fang Mingsu and said, "This matter has nothing to do with Sword Sage. Why do you have to see him? Do you want to seek justice for her or do you want to go to the Niten Flying Immortal Palace? "
"Both. Lead the way," Fang Mingsu said indifferently.
Zhou Wen already understood that Fang Mingsu's true goal wasn't to save Ji Moqing, or rather, it wasn't entirely to save her. Perhaps Ji Moqing's capture from the beginning was a trap.
Fang Mingsu's true target was the Niten Flying Immortal Palace and Sei Gasakai. There was no doubt about this, but Zhou Wen didn't understand why Fang Mingsu was doing this.
"Sorry, if you want to go to the Niten Flying Immortal Palace, it's best you go by yourself. I don't have the time to accompany you." Zhou Wen gestured for Shiroishi Satomi to continue sailing.
Fang Mingsu frowned slightly. In his intelligence, there didn't seem to be such a person on Fuji Island. The three most important people in the Niten Flying Immortal Palace were Sei Gasakai, Honn Shinsakura, and Shiroishi Satomi.
As for Shiroishi Satomi, she seemed to follow this young man's lead, but this young man wasn't Honn Shinsakura. This left Fang Mingsu somewhat puzzled.
However, the arrow had to be fired. Even if the young man in front of him was as powerful as Honn Shinsakura, it wouldn't affect the overall situation much.
"Brother-in-law …" Ji Moqing seemed to realize something as well. She wanted to tell Fang Mingsu what had happened on Fuji Island, but she was interrupted by Fang Mingsu. He also gave her a reassuring gesture.
"Regardless of whether you have the time or not, you have to make this trip." With Fang Mingsu's voice, the soldiers on the ship had already summoned their Companion Beasts and aimed them at Zhou Wen and company.
The bald man's body was covered in scales. Like a monster, he slashed at Zhou Wen with his ax.
