Xue Mingtai snorted.

"Listen to what I have to say before you comment."

"This isn't over. In 2013, members of a terrorist organization took over a large airliner of a medium-sized country."

"They held all the crew and passengers hostage, demanding the release of their recently captured leader."

"After that, the country sent out their counter-terrorism Special Forces to eliminate the hijackers and rescue the hostages."

"This counter-terrorism mission was carried out flawlessly."

"But, at the very last moment, one of the terrorists holding the plane hostage suddenly went berserk."

"He was incredibly strong, his body as if made of refined steel."

"The SWAT team fired a total of twenty-two shots into him before they managed to kill him."

"Due to this unexpected incident, more than half of the SWAT team were casualties, and a full fifteen innocent passengers perished."

"This terrorist event shocked the world at that time."

"Counter-terrorism experts and some life scientists were at a loss to explain."

"How could an ordinary person possess such terrifying strength and such a perverted level of bodily defense?"

"Later, they performed an autopsy on the terrorist's body."

"Finally, in his heart, they discovered a small, irregular crystal."

"And this crystal bore a striking resemblance to the crystals unearthed from the underground palace of the Parthenon Temple."

Yang Fei was taken aback.

"Damn, could my speculation actually be true?"

Xue Mingtai continued talking.

In his hand, Little Knife didn't stop for a moment, prying open the fractured skull of Poseidon.

However, half an hour later.

After a thorough and meticulous search, Xue Mingtai and Yang Fei ended up empty-handed.

Xue Mingtai muttered to himself.

"Impossible, if the information is accurate."

"As one of the Main Gods, Poseidon should possess a Divine Crystal."

"Could it be that the information was false?"

Yang Fei shook his head, "I thought as much, how could there be any Divine Crystals and True Gods?"

"Nothing but the ramblings of charlatans, deceiving the world for fame and profit."

"I think this Poseidon guy must have practiced some special martial arts, evolved his body, and that's why he was so fearsome."

Just then, Uncle Yu's voice came from the entrance of the cave.

"Young Master Ming Tai, Young Master Fei, Miss Zi Chen has woken up."

Upon hearing this, Yang Fei and Xue Mingtai turned and ran.

In the cottage of Dragon God Cave, An Zichen weakly opened her eyes.

She looked at Xue Mingtai, her expression calm yet filled with deep familial love.

"It's rare for Young Master Ming Tai to honor me with a visit, but I'm afraid I can't keep you company anymore."

Seeing her on the brink of death, Xue Mingtai's heart felt like it was being torn apart as he started to cry.

"Zi Chen my sister, I have wronged you."

The corners of An Zichen's mouth lifted slightly, her cheeks as delicate and beautiful as a snow lotus.

"All right, I'm not angry with you anymore, what's a man crying for?"

Xue Mingtai wiped away his tears, filled with self-loathing.

"Don't worry, I'll take you with me right now, and by any means necessary, I'll make sure you're healed."

A thick fog appeared to condense in An Zichen's eyes.

"Brother, you finally acknowledge me?"

Xue Mingtai gently stroked her forehead.

"Fool, how could I not recognize you?"

"Let's leave right now, to the world's most advanced hospital, where we'll get the top doctors."

"You have to survive."

An Zichen sighed faintly.

"But, I may not make it."

"Brother, if I die, take me back to Zhonghai Liuyuan."

"There, there are such tall buildings, and inside them countless books."

"I want to wait there, for mom and dad to come back... "

As she spoke, her voice became softer and softer, until it finally faded to silence.

Xue Mingtai was shocked, and shouted loudly.

"Uncle Yu, Uncle Yu, come and see what's happened to Zi Chen!"

Uncle Yu rushed over in three quick strides.

He reached out and checked An Zichen's pulse, and was taken aback.

"Miss Zi Chen's injuries have worsened."

"We need to hurry and go, let the internist perform surgery."

Yang Fei held An Zichen in his arms and dashed out of the Dragon God Cave.

Xue Mingtai pulled out a communicator and spoke a few sentences.

A helicopter flew in from the northeast, hovering in front of the Dragon God Cave, and gradually descended.

The huge propellers stirred up a strong wind.

Xue Mingtai climbed up the rope ladder, and Yang Fei handed An Zichen to him.

Xue Mingtai, holding An Zichen, got on the helicopter, followed closely by Uncle Yu.

Amid the helicopter's roaring noise,

the voice of Xue Mingtai was faintly heard coming from afar.

"The affairs of Dragon Island are now in your hands."

"Until Zi Chen's wounds have healed, you are the new Dragon King. Take care!"

The helicopter, amidst its roaring, gradually took off.

Eventually, it turned into a small black dot and disappeared at the horizon where the sea met the sky.

In Yang Fei's heart, it felt as if he was being fried in oil.

Although he had only met An Zichen a day or two ago,

strangely, Yang Fei felt she was incredibly close and warm.

This feeling was like the affection found between family members.

Even if they haven't seen each other for many years, their reunion would still be incredibly heartwarming.

With Xue Mingtai's connections and immense wealth,

Yang Fei believed that he would be able to heal An Zichen.

And on Dragon Island, his own burden was also heavy.

The defeated Raptor Mercenaries and Longbao Guard needed to be continually hunted down.

The native islanders had to be soothed.

And those big rascals from the Southern Thirteen Provinces also needed to be pacified and deterred.

Otherwise, taking advantage of An Zichen's injury,

some people with ulterior motives would inevitably cause trouble.

Thinking this, Yang Fei left the Dragon God Cave and descended the mountain.

The sky gradually darkened, and corpses lay scattered all over the mountain in disarray.

Some bodies' severed limbs were thrown among the rocks and bushes, creating a terrifying sight.

The chaos on Dragon Island had barely begun to subside, and no one had the energy to clean the battlefield.

Just then, the body of Chen Yu twitched.

He slowly lifted his head, his eyes filled with ferocious intent.

Few people knew that Chen Yu's heart was on his right chest.

Yang Fei's sniper bullet hadn't killed the man.

Indeed, with the power of a sniper bullet,

even if it hadn't hit Chen Yu's heart directly, he shouldn't have survived.

However, somehow, he remained clinging to his last breath.

Chen Yu sneered silently.

Under him lay a large, indistinct mass of flesh and blood.

It was a chunk of flesh blown off in an explosion.

When Poseidon was hit by the mysterious bullet,

his body had exploded violently.

And this mass of flesh was blown from Poseidon's body.

But this was not essential.

What mattered was the irregular crystal the size of a thumb in the middle of this mass of flesh.

The crystal, with its mottled and strange patterns, exuded a mysterious aura.

As a Martial Arts Expert of Core Formation to Divine Communication,

Chen Yu could feel the immense and mysterious energy fluctuations within the crystal.

And he had heard clearly every word of the conversation between Xue Mingtai and Yang Fei.

He gasped for air urgently, sneering soundlessly.

Chen Yu exerted force with his fingers and dug out the crystal that represented power and life.

He then crawled like a wild beast into the midst of the rocky growths.

Not far away, the sea began to stir.

Waves surged forth, one after another.

Crashing against the rocks, they whipped up torrents of spray tens of meters high.
