Saburo Kohara is merely a gang leader in Sapporo City; he might be familiar with the grassland here but definitely cannot regularly appear here.

So regarding the matters on this grassland, at most he would have only heard about them.

Even Saburo Kohara knows, which indicates that many others know as well, perhaps Qin Fang and his group are not the only ones who have seen that scene; some might have witnessed it earlier.

But as for the result, it's undoubtedly true that no one has been able to discover why such mysterious phenomena appear on Lake Heart Island.

If that weren't so, then surely someone would have targeted here long ago, and it wouldn't still be unoccupied, since that magnificent architectural complex clearly is not an ordinary place, and Hokkaido Shrine would certainly have taken action.

Yet, Qin Fang and his group had just seen clearly that Lake Heart Island is simply a deserted island, nothing of interest there, really isn't appealing.

Moreover, Lake Heart Island's area isn't large, and it's situated at the center of the lake deep in the grassland, even developing it would be a hassle, let alone inhabiting it.

This discovery amazed Qin Fang and his group, while also filling them with an unusual sense of eeriness, giving them the feeling that this island was rather strange.

"Anyway, I think we should go and take a look at Lake Heart Island… I feel that what we saw isn't that simple!"

After a brief moment of silence, Qin Fang couldn't help but express his thoughts.

Though what one's eyes see isn't necessarily real and can often deceive, Qin Fang felt the island was quite suspicious.

Even though he had seen it fairly clearly with binoculars earlier, noting even the few trees on the island, he felt uneasy without personally setting foot on Lake Heart Island.

"I'll go with you…"

Almost as soon as Qin Fang expressed his thoughts, Monk Wukong immediately chimed in, clearly sharing the same idea as Qin Fang.

"I'll go too!"

Ji Xiang, with his energetic and curious nature, also promptly added his intention.

As for Song Qingshan, although he remained silent, he stepped forward, making his intention quite clear. All four had seen that scene which then abruptly vanished; they probably wouldn't sleep soundly without personally solving this mystery.

"Young Master Qin, are you really going over?"

At this moment, Hattori Sanzo and Qin Zi caught up with them. Although they hadn't witnessed anything like Qin Fang's group, seeing the lake naturally reminded them of Saburo Kohara's earlier warning and Qin Fang's group's unusual behavior, prompting them to ask.

They weren't foolish; even though Qin Fang's group hadn't said much, they recognized something was wrong with Lake Heart Island or assumed the group had discovered something, urging them to investigate further!

However, the problem was, despite having seven people now, the strongest are Qin Zi and Hattori Sanzo, yet neither saw anything.

"You guys stay here, we'll go check it out and come right back…"

In truth, Qin Fang had planned to go alone, making it easier for him to move freely and handle any danger himself.

Yet, with the others so determined to join, being his regular companions, Qin Fang couldn't be too indifferent, so he couldn't refuse; thus, they decided to go together.

While Qin Fang's group could leave, Qin Zi and Hattori Sanzo had to stay behind, besides they needed to keep an eye on the Sakura.

Hattori Sanzo had lost a wrist, though the wound had healed, getting into the water was still inconvenient, even if he wished to join.

Qin Zi wanted to go, but being a woman among a group of men going into the water seemed inappropriate… Qin Fang, though not having accepted this Japanese female slave, didn't wish to suffer any loss.

Thus, they left the three behind to wait, while Qin Fang and his three companions went straight into the water, heading directly towards Lake Heart Island.

Fortunately, none of the four were inexperienced swimmers, skilled in swimming and backed by powerful True Qi, making the mere one or two kilometers of water surface trivial for them.

Upon entering the water, Qin Fang released Little Dragon, sending it ahead to Lake Heart Island to explore.

If it were just Qin Fang alone, he'd ride Little Dragon straight there, but with company, revealing Little Dragon became inconvenient.

It's akin to the death of Miyamoto Musashi, as Ji Xiang and others still believed Qin Fang used Tang Sect's poison to kill Miyamoto Musashi.

Unfortunately, they never imagined Miyamoto Musashi wasn't killed by their poison, but by the poison of Little Dragon… which even surpassed the venom of the Golden Crested Snake, leaving the poisoned without cure!

Of course, Little Dragon has many talents, notably its Water Control Technique, nearly divine in nature, making it invincible in the water.

Though Qin Fang's Swimming Skill was seldom used, he had honed it to advanced level, swimming like a fish, effortlessly gliding through the water, though he remained the fastest among them.
