Chapter 513 Liu Ci's Past
night.
After instructing the Carp God to take good care of the house, Ye Kang went directly to the dock.
Zhang Zuisheng had already prepared the boat, and besides him, there was Fang Yu and another protector.
Including Ye Kang, there were a total of four Divine Sea Realm experts who went to celebrate the birthday of Blood Shark Ancestor, which was already a great honor.
After Ye Kang boarded the ship, Fang Yu ordered the ship to set sail, while looking at Ye Kang with a bewildered expression.
"Goodness! You're serious, kid. I didn't believe you when Fang Wuji told me, but you really did reach the Four Pillars level!"
Fang Yu is currently the fourth pillar, and has been stuck here for quite some time.
Seeing Ye Kang's rapid progress, he felt a mix of emotions.
Zhang Zuisheng slumped on the high place and mocked, "Fang Yu, kid, I told you not to cultivate properly. The younger generation has already caught up with you."
Fang Yu looked helpless: "Uncle Zhang, how can you blame me? If you don't improve your cultivation soon, he'll probably catch up with you too."
"You brat! You dare to talk nonsense about your martial uncle! You're being punished with ten jars of fine wine!"
Fang Yu chuckled and waved his right hand, and ten jars of fragrant spirit wine appeared on the deck.
“Uncle Zhang, your relationship with me is the best. I prepared this for you when I received the mission, so you can have a good drink.”
Zhang Zuisheng's eyes widened, and he instantly grinned from ear to ear, nodding repeatedly and saying, "Good, good, good! The Fang family's 'Fiery Fire' liquor is indeed excellent. Uncle-Master is so generous; you can make up whatever you want and curse me however you like!"
After saying that, Zhang Zuisheng picked up a jar of strong liquor and poured it directly into his mouth, quickly losing consciousness.
Upon seeing this, Ye Kang couldn't help but smile knowingly.
These two are such a handful; going on a mission with them will probably keep you entertained.
Soon, the ship was on its way to the Blood Shark Palace.
As dawn broke, the sea gradually came into view.
Ye Kang and Fang Yu leaned against the railing, each holding a fishing rod.
Ye Kang was using the custom-made fishing staff that Helian Yingxiong had given him, and it was extremely effective, catching fish one after another.
Fang Yu looked anxious, but no fish took the bait.
Ye Kang smiled and said, "Brother Fang, can I ask you a few questions?"
Because Ye Kang's cultivation has improved, he is now of the same generation as Fang Yu, so he no longer needs to call Fang Yu "Uncle-Master" and can treat him as an equal.
But Ye Kang wasn't used to being called "senior brother" all of a sudden, so he simply called him "Brother Fang."
Fang Yu nodded and said, "Go ahead and ask, but I'll be charging you."
"What does Brother Fang want?"
"Hehe, lend me your fishing rod for a couple of days."
"Of course it's no problem."
"Ask away. I often escort merchant ships, and I know all the gossip about the Coral Islands."
Fang Yu proudly puffed out her chest and said confidently.
Ye Kang whispered, "Brother Fang, I want to know, what exactly did Liu Ci do to Crimson Fire Island?"
Fang Yu was stunned for a moment: "You really want to know?"
"After all, I am Liu Ci..."
"That's true, but I must remind you to stay calm after you hear it."
"I will."
Ye Kang looked puzzled, thinking, "Could it be that serious?"
Fang Yu then said, "The story begins when Liu Ci, representing the Tyrant Whale Sect, went to Crimson Fire Island to deliver wedding gifts."
"At that time, the wedding of the young master of Crimson Fire Island and the young lady of Ten Thousand Snake Island was approaching. Liu Ci accepted a mission from the sect to send gifts while secretly investigating the relationship between Crimson Fire Island and Ten Thousand Snake Island to see if the two islands had truly made peace."
"Who knew that this kid, in order to get information, took a different approach and secretly contacted the young lady of Ten Thousand Snake Island. On the eve of her wedding, she won his heart and insisted on eloping with him."
"Although this kid is bold, he's not stupid. He rejected her to her face, and as a result, the young lady of Ten Thousand Snake Island made it clear to everyone that she would marry no one but Liu Ci."
"That was the wedding day, with both sets of parents and envoys from all the sects present. For such a disgraceful incident to occur, the Crimson Fire Island Master would want to tear Liu Ci apart."
Upon hearing this, Ye Kang's face began to twitch.
Good guy!
This Liu Ci really lives up to his reputation; how could he make a girl call off her engagement after just one meeting?
Fang Yu continued, "Later, the wedding ended in discord. Blood Shark Palace, out of consideration for the Tyrant Whale Sect, did not speak up, but Crimson Fire Island was furious and had no choice but to turn its anger towards Ten Thousand Snake Island, which had broken off the engagement."
"The Fire Roc on Crimson Fire Island is naturally able to restrain the venomous snakes on Ten Thousand Snake Island, but Ten Thousand Snake Island is not made of clay. The two sides fought several real battles, resulting in many deaths and injuries."
"In the end, Blood Shark Palace intervened to mediate when it saw that both sides were about to escalate the war. However, the two sides are still hostile to this day and could break out into a fight at any time."
Ye Kang was stunned. This chain reaction was too serious, directly turning two allies into blood enemies.
No wonder Qi Youshan warned himself that it was best not to get close to Red Fire Island.
If Zhang Zuisheng hadn't been around, he wouldn't even know how he died.
Ye Kang then recalled Li Youcai from the Eastern Demon Sect during the trial at Dangxia Mountain.
He and Liu Ci were old acquaintances, and he had also told Ye Kang about the past of Chihuo Island, which was largely the same. However, in his words, Liu Ci was an even more heinous scoundrel.
Fang Yu smiled and said, "Actually, Liu Ci did a very good job on this mission. The sect only asked him to investigate, but he went and exceeded expectations, permanently dividing the two islands. The sect leader even secretly praised him for it."
"Then why were you imprisoned again later?"
"That's all in the future. His merits cannot cover up his demerits. He's done far more outrageous things than this. You'd better not know."
Ye Kang nodded, indicating that he would heed the advice.
"Alright, I've finished telling you the story. Now it's time for me to play with your fishing rod."
Fang Yu rubbed his hands together, looking expectant.
Ye Kang handed over the fishing rod, then took the ordinary fishing rod from Fang Yu and continued fishing.
Two hours later.
Ye Kang filled the bucket again, but Fang Yu still hadn't filled it at all.
……
With the sect leader's admonition, Ye Kang behaved very well this time. Many accidents and mysterious events occurred on the flight path.
But he remained focused and did not disembark, staying on the boat and meditating silently.
Soon, another few days passed.
The system notification sounded.
