An innocent man will get into trouble because of his wealth!
This saying was perfectly illustrated by the residents of Chi Tong Island!
The residents of the island, who had always stood aloof from worldly affairs, also cultivated, but their cultivation was not very high. For example, the old Island Master was only at Dao Change Realm Level 3. The dozen or so brawny men beside him were obviously the island's guards. Their cultivation level had only just reached the Dao Change Realm.
If they were in the Cloud Sea Empire, they would be considered experts. However, in a place like this, they were not very strong.
Against the invasion of outsiders, countless residents died in battle. However, they could not stop the invasion.
In a short year, the residents of Chi Tong Island were reduced to only 10% of the original population.
Left with no other choice, the old man could only risk his life to purchase the pagoda from the outside world, regardless of the cost.
The tower could be controlled from afar and was quite powerful. The island owner relied on this to defend against the enemy's attacks a few times.
However, after the enemy was defeated, they did not give up. They even prepared to call for more experts to help.
From then on, the people on the island were on high alert. If they met any outsiders, they would attack!
This was why when Qin Yi got close, no matter how he tried to explain, he was attacked by the tower's white light!
After listening to the old man's explanation, Qin Yi's expression finally eased up.
"If that's the case, it won't be long before they launch another attack?"
The old man had a bitter expression as he nodded weakly. Then, he raised his head to look at Qin Yi and said, "Young hero, we do not know when the enemy will attack. Once the other party enters the island, our entire clan may become prisoners. In order to not implicate the innocent, it is best that you leave quickly. "
Qin Yi fell into deep thought. To be honest, he was not a person who liked to meddle in other people's business. Although the people in front of him were pitiful, they did not have much to do with him. Furthermore, he had Yun Die 'er with him. He had to consider Yun Die' er's safety. He could not risk himself.
According to the old man, the people who invaded the island last time were all experts at Dao Change Realm Level 4 and above. It was very likely that the next ones to arrive would be Dao Palace realm experts.
Although he had many tricks up his sleeves that allowed him to deal with Dao Palace experts, he was still a Dao Palace expert. However, it was definitely not an easy task to defeat him. Most importantly, even the Island Master did not know exactly how many experts the other party had gathered.
If there were too many enemies, it would be hard for him to escape!
However, after careful consideration, he still decided to stay.
The most important thing was Yun Die 'er's physical condition. If she didn't rest for a few more days, her body wouldn't be able to take it.
Furthermore, after such a long journey, the Space-Breaking Boat was extremely worn out. If this continued, it would affect the lifespan of the space-breaking ship.
Also, they had been sailing for a month and were surrounded by an endless sea. If he missed this piece of land, he didn't know how long it would take to find another place to stay.
Therefore, after careful consideration, Qin Yi decided to stay and rest for a few days.
After hearing Qin Yi's decision, the Island Master frowned: "Young hero, you're still young. If something were to happen to you on our Chi Tong Island, this old man will feel very guilty! "
Qin Yi waved his hand and said indifferently: "You don't have to worry about this. Qin Mo is forcing me to stay. Even if something happens in the end, it has nothing to do with you! Furthermore, I see that there aren't many people on your island. One more person means one more helper, right? "
The old man hesitated for a long time before finally nodding his head: "Since that's the case, then young hero, please disembark. After resting for a while, we'll be on our way! "
Qin Yi did not say anything. He only controlled the space-breaking boat to land slowly.
Then, he helped Yun Die 'er down from the boat.
After touching land and feeling the stability of the ground, Yun Die 'er's expression looked much better.
It seemed that this time, Qin Yi did not make the wrong decision.
"This young lady, you don't look too good."
The old man looked at Yun Die 'er and frowned: "If young hero doesn't mind, please stay at my house for a few days."
Qin Yi chuckled and said, "Thank you very much."
After saying this, he supported Yun Die 'er and, under the escort of the Island Master and the dozen or so men, they set off towards the island.
"Qin Yi, what happened just now? I don't think they are evil people. Why did they attack us just now? "
Just now, Qin Yi had stopped the space-breaking boat at a very high altitude. Yun Die 'er did not hear the conversation below. After seeing the attitude of the people on the island, she was also very confused. The difference in their attitude was a bit too big.
Qin Yi laughed and said: "It's just a misunderstanding. Now that we've explained things clearly, everything will be fine. "
He did not intend to tell Yun Die 'er about the danger on the island. Right now, she still needed to calm down. If she knew about that kind of thing, she would not be able to calm down and rest.
Luckily, Yun Die 'er was not scheming and did not doubt Qin Yi's words. She did not ask too much and, with Qin Yi's support, entered the depths of Chi Tong Island.
Not long after, they saw the village. Outside the village, there were tall stone walls. Around the stone walls, there were watchtowers with people patrolling.
Seeing that the Island Master had brought people back, the people inside did not think much and directly opened the door.
After entering, Qin Yi discovered that the village was much bigger than he had imagined. The houses inside were tall and full of people.
However, there weren't many people in this huge village, and it seemed rather deserted.
Even if there were people on both sides of the road, they would discover that this group of people did not show much kindness towards the two outsiders, Qin Yi and Yun Die 'er. Instead, their faces were full of wariness and vigilance, as if they would attack at any time.
Qin Yi naturally knew the reason for this. However, the more Yun Die 'er looked, the more confused she became. When she wanted to ask Qin Yi about it, she was interrupted by Qin Yi.
"Die 'er, every place has its own habits. Don't mind it, just rest. "
Yun Die 'er's black brows slightly furrowed. She could clearly sense that Qin Yi was hiding something from her. However, since Qin Yi did not intend to say it, she would not pursue the matter.
