The next morning, in the Tianfeng sea area!
Above the endless sea, the river water was boiling.
On a dragon boat that could accommodate 50 people, waves were set off from time to time, hitting the hull of the boat heavily.
Ye Chen stood at the bow of the boat and looked into the distance. There was no end to the horizon, but he felt inexplicably oppressed.
He, Jiu 'er, and a few guards from the King Mu Fort were the only ones on the deck. As for King Mu and Mu Caiwei, they had already returned to the cabin.
The salty sea breeze blew over from afar, causing Jiu 'er, who was next to him, to hold onto the boat and vomit.
Ye Chen patted her shoulder lightly and secretly channeled some spiritual energy into her. He asked, "How do you feel?"
"I-I feel much better, young master!"
Jiu 'er finally felt less uncomfortable, but her face was still pale, "Young master, don't you get seasick?"
"It's alright!"
Ye Chen chuckled softly and asked, "How long will it take for us to get there?"
"Soon, about half an hour!"
Jiu 'er supported her chin with her hand and said in boredom, "Young master, when we reach the Spirit Fog Island, you must stand far away. Otherwise, it'll be bad if you get hurt!"
Ye Chen was amused by her words. He could not help but say, "Stand far away? Is the martial gathering so intense? "
"Of course!"
Jiu 'er said like beans pouring out of a bamboo tube, "Young master, you don't know this, but every time the martial gathering is held, the five great forces, including our King Mu Fort, will send people. The younger generation of both sides will fight with their true abilities. After all, this concerns the ownership of the Spirit Fog Island, so the battle is very tragic."
She seemed to have thought of something, and her face was filled with lingering fear, "I saw a guy from the Blood Blade Sect kill someone from the Vile Valley with a single slash. And that Vile Valley, I heard that they like to eat human flesh …"
"Did your young mistress participate in the past?"
"No, Young Master Mu Xuanzhen participated in the past, but for some reason, he didn't come today!"
Ye Chen knew that it was because of what happened earlier that Mu Xuanzhen hated him and Mu Caiwei.
"But I'm a little worried about the young mistress now!"
Jiu 'er frowned, her petite face scrunching up. "In this competition, Young Miss has to defeat the Seven Mysteries Mansion, the Blood Saber Sect, and Evil Men Valley to qualify to challenge the City Lord's Residence!"
Ye Chen was surprised. "Why?"
"Because the City Lord's Mansion was the champion of the previous Martial Gathering. As the champion, they only need to accept the challenges of the other four great powers!"
Jiu 'er explained patiently, "Only one of the four forces, including the King Mu Fort, will win in the end. Then, they'll challenge the City Governor's Mansion. If they win, they'll obtain the management rights of the Spirit Fog Island."
…
Half an hour later, the dragon boat successfully arrived at Spirit Fog Island.
As far as the eye could see, there were already many people on the Spirit Fog Island. These people wore all sorts of clothes and did not conceal the fluctuations of cultivation within their bodies.
After King Mu walked out of the cabin, he sized up the crowd on the shore and said in a deep voice, "They're all here!"
"Let's go!" Mu Caiwei's expression was cold as she led everyone onto the Spirit Fog Island.
Ye Chen realized that the aura on her body was becoming more and more chaotic. Although she had become stronger, she seemed to be losing control.
He could not help but follow her and say, "The situation in your body is a little bad. I suggest you sit down and circulate your energy to regulate your breathing!"
"I said it's none of your business!"
Mu Caiwei was as cold as before.
On the other hand, King Mu glanced at Ye Chen coldly and snorted heavily. He did not give Ye Chen any face at all!
If it were not for Ye Chen, why would his daughter have angered Mu Xuanzhen earlier? Why would Mu Xuanzhen refuse to participate in the Martial Gathering with the excuse of being injured?
Without Mu Xuanzhen, it could be said that all the pressure had fallen on his daughter. She had only been cultivating excessively these few days.
Ye Chen could only shake his head secretly when he saw that the father and daughter did not appreciate his kindness.
With their appearance, the crowd in the distance immediately sized them up one after another. Then, countless discussions broke out.
"That's the King Mu Fort!"
"The one walking in front is Ms. Mu, right? She's indeed as beautiful as the rumors say. It's a pity that a piece of trash has taken advantage of her! "
"The brat behind Ms. Mu, I don't even need to think to know that he's that piece of trash? I didn't expect this nonsense to actually come! "
"That's strange. In the previous Martial Gatherings, the King Mu Fort could be said to have turned out in full force. Why don't I see Grand Elder Wu Sansi today?"
"Does that mean that Mu Caiwei will be the only one from the King Mu Fort to fight? Doesn't that mean that we have a chance? "
"…"
Hearing the whispers of these people, King Mu's face turned grim. He did not say anything and led everyone to an extremely spacious, open-air flat ground.
As far as the eye could see, there were three rings that were 15 meters wide standing on the ground. The one in the middle was more than twice the size of the other two.
A young man slowly stood on it. Although the young man had his eyes closed to rest, the aura he emitted seemed to have frozen the entire world.
"It's him!"
Surprise flashed through Ye Chen's eyes because the young man was the one who attacked him on the day of the wedding — Situ Yu, the son of Tianfeng City's City Governor, Situ Yun.
Sensing the faint pressure coming from Situ Yu's body, Mu Caiwei's expression changed. However, it was soon replaced by determination.
At this moment, a hearty laughter came from the side, "Brother Mu, you guys are a little slow!"
The sect master of the Blood Blade Sect, Feng Jingyao, led a few people over slowly. Beside him was Monk Lan from the Vile Valley.
Before King Mu could speak, a gloomy young man behind Feng Jingyao looked straight at Ye Chen, "You're Shi Qianhan?"
The young man grinned, "You're just like the rumors. You're just a piece of trash. I didn't expect you to have the courage to come and watch the martial gathering."
Mu Caiwei looked at him coldly, "Feng Wu, please watch your words!"
A skinny young man stood out from behind Monk Lan, "Ms. Mu, although Brother Feng's words are a little harsh, he's telling the truth, right?"
The skinny young man was so skinny that he was like a bag of bones. However, no one present dared to underestimate him!
It was because the other party was the No. 1 person among the younger generation of the Vile Valley, Fan Hou. It was said that he was also a peak innate stage master, and he was known as the Bloodhand Butcher.
Not only was this person powerful, but the most terrifying thing was that this person's cultivation method seemed to be related to cannibalism. It was rumored that every time he killed an opponent, he would eat their corpses.
Feng Wu chuckled, "If Ms. Mu thinks that I'm wrong, you can challenge Brother Shi to a duel. If he wins, I'll apologize to him personally!"
The older generation witnessed the entire process. However, they realized that Ye Chen had no expression on his face from the beginning to the end.
King Mu waved his sleeve and interrupted their conversation. He said in a deep voice, "Alright, everyone is here. Let's begin!"
