If others ran into wards or tactical formations, they would worry about how to
crack them .
Jiang Chen seldom had such worries . He would try to interpret the deployer's
way of thinking and technique .
He saw what was odd about the stone gate . The ward had been deployed
only five years ago, but the deployer intentionally made it look older .
Unfortunately, the other pirates didn't believe him .
Then everyone looked towards Fan Tianyin .
They wondered what her expression was behind the veil, but her knitted
brows had explained she was hesitating .
"I will never give up the treasures just because of what this guy said!" Tu
Tiandao made his attitude clear .
Before interest, he was even less afraid of Fan Tianyin .
"Jiang Chen, just open it," said Fan Tianyin .
Jiang Chen wasn't surprised . He just shook his head gently .
"Jiang Chen would never lie to you!" Tang Shiya expressed her support for
Jiang Chen right away .
However, she lowered her head as soon as Fan Tianyin threw her a glance .
She didn't dare look into the latter's eyes .
"I can open it, but I won't go inside," Jiang Chen said .
"Then you won't have a share of the treasures . " Thinking he was playing
another trick, Tu Tiandao turned black .
"How will you be able to share the treasures if there is none . "
Laughing coldly, Jiang Chen didn't want to argue with them . He said, "I'll open
the gate of the ward for you . Then I'll bid my farewell . "
"Go back to the Sea Conqueror to wait for us . I'll give you the control of the
ship," Fan Tianyin said .
Tang Shiya pulled Jiang Chen's clothes from behind before he could respond .
She wanted him to agree .

At the same time, she said, "Even though you don't believe Jiang Chen, I
believe him . "
Jiang Chen was still hesitating, not about whether to go into the gate, but
whether to talk Fan Tianyin out of it .
But judging from the other pirates' expressions, he knew his persuasion
wouldn't work .
So he lifted the ward of the stone gate . Since he had managed to see the flaw
about the age, of course it was easy for him to lift the ward, too .
The emptiness in the gate was filled by lights that looked like watermarks .
A pirate reached into it . He felt he had reached into water .
"Get prepared . Brace yourselves up," Fan Tianyin told them .
Seeing Jiang Chen crack the ward so easily, what he had said weighed more
in the other pirates' heart .
But they wouldn't give up . They insisted on taking this risk .
"Are you really not gonna enter it?"
Fan Tianyin asked him for the last time .
"I won't do something that will bring me into trouble . "
There were no treasures inside . Of course Jiang Chen wouldn't go inside .
"I'm now giving you the control of the Sea Conqueror . You can go back to
save those people . "
Fan Tianyin gave him a round jade .
Holding the jade in hand, Jiang Chen established a connection with the Sea
Conqueror immediately . The ship was like his four limbs . He could control it at
will .
"Jiang Chen, let's go . "
Seeing the two gazing at each other, Tang Shiya urged him unhappily .
"Take care . "
Jiang Chen told her . Then he flew back to the Sea Conqueror with Tang

Shiya .
From the air, he saw Fan Tianyin and the other pirates walk into the gate one
by one .
"You're too softhearted . "
As if she had detected something, Tang Shiya said, "You'll get involved with
that woman sooner or later in this way . "
"I know how to decline her," Jiang Chen said .
"Jiang Chen, don't forget that woman is a pirate, and a pirate head . No one
knows how many people she killed . "
Tang Shiya said in anger, "Many of those on the Evilest Island are innocent
people . "
"Shiya, why are you so afraid of her?" Jiang Chen asked abruptly .
Tang Shiya was too surprised to respond him quickly . She looked nervous .
She said after a good while, "She is a Celestial Venerable . Of course I'm
afraid of her . "
"That's all?"
Jiang Chen looked at her seriously . Tang Shiya also turned to look at him .
Then, smiling at each other, they stopped talking about it .
After going back to the Sea Conqueror, Jiang Chen released the captives of
the Ten Symbols Alliance first . Then he knew the truth of the Evilest Island
from them .
Fan Tianyin didn't lie . The Ten Symbols Alliance's strategy was to use the
blood of those innocent men to satisfy the so-called evil spirit on the Evilest
Island .
What was ironic was the Ten Symbols Alliance would still have casualties
while picking the Extreme Primordial Fruits on the island .
Tang Shiya said, "Jiang Chen, now the Sea Conqueror is under our control . If
we capture those pirates, too, it will be a great merit . "
"Yeah?" Jiang Chen was surprised to hear that .

"These pirates are usually hiding on the islands . There are so many islands
on the sea that no one exactly knows where they are . It's a rare chance that
they've got together . "
Tang Shiya continued, "By then, you, the Marquis Champion of the Flying
Dragon Dynasty, will be famous all over the Realm of True Force . When you
go to the Flying Dragon Dynasty, you'll have real power . "
"That's what you think? Really?" Jiang Chen asked .
"Yep . "
Tang Shiya nodded . She said, "Isn't it what we came here for? Or, are you
feeling sorry for that woman?"
Jiang Chen couldn't help but frown . She had expressed her jealousy and
suspicion many times .
"Have you ever heard about what happened to the son of the leader of the
Tianyi School?" Jiang Chen asked .
"Anything wrong? I know him . He went to the banquet, too . " Tang Shiya
wondered why he had suddenly brought this up .
"He is alive?"
"Of course . "
Tang Shiya's answer proved Fan Tianyin's story was false .
Her version contradicted Fan Tianyin's . He didn't know whom he should
believe .
"Let's go to the Evilest Island first," Jiang Chen said .
"Okay . "
Seeing him unwilling to attack the pirates, Tang Shiya was disappointed, even
a little sad .
Going back to the sea area close to the Evilest Island, the Sea Conqueror
was ready to dive into the water .
"Look up!"
Someone on the deck suddenly pointed at the sky . Numerous lights flew over,
with long airflow behind .
Jiang Chen made the Sea Conqueror's weapons ready .
"Celestial Venerables . Lots of Celestial Venerables!"
They saw figures when the lights had been close enough .
It was a team mainly formed by Celestial Venerables . There were about 40 or
50 people .
"Which force is powerful enough to form such a team?!"
Those on the ship were puzzled . Then the same name occurred to them .
The Sacred Martial Arts Institute!
However, sending such a team was even rare for the Sacred Martial Arts
Institute .
There weren't many Celestial Venerables in all . It wouldn't be wise to send
lots of them to gain a victory . If the enemy was a great Venerable, they would
just send a great Venerable to deal with the enemy .
The team didn't stop when they had been over the Sea Conqueror . They only
slowed down .
Jiang Chen saw something odd . The team formed two defensive circles .
One formed the inner ring, and the other formed the outer ring .
Those in the inner ring were obviously very different from those in the outer
ring .
At the center of the rings was a youngster in flamboyant clothes . His airflow
was also the most brilliant .
He lowered his head, seemingly having perceived Jiang Chen's look . The two
made a brief eye contact .
The youngster smiled . It wasn't a friendly smile, but a disdainful one, as if he
was in a higher position .
He looked away and kept flying .
Shortly after the team had left, a man from the team flew towards the Sea
Conqueror .
"He is from the Sacred Martial Arts Institute," Tang Shiya said seriously, after
seeing that man's face .
