was the steward of the mansion.Song Jian asked, "How is it, have you finished counting the losses""My lord, the results are in."The steward said, “Just now we had a total of one hundred and eight serv..."To the best of this old man's knowledge, that is not true."

Su Qing said, "The Yao Ming Sea is home to many dangerous sea monsters. Ordinary cultivators wouldn't dare to go out, or they would only become the food of the sea monsters."

Even cultivators who have reached the powerful Nascent Soul stage, the tribulation period, wouldn't dare to wander about at random. For this Demon Abyss Sea is boundless and endless, with no direction or destination in sight. There's simply no telling where it ends, let alone what one could possibly find there.

Ye Bufan nodded, this was understandable. Danger was secondary; the most important thing was direction.

Su Qing said again, "Young Master Ye, if I were you, just stay on this Beiling Island. The old man only has one daughter, and as long as you are willing to stay, I will immediately pass the position of island master to you."

"Here, we have everything. In the future, we will have many children with Shuang'er and live a happy life together, wouldn't that be wonderful!"

It's obvious that the old man genuinely wants to keep Ye Bufan here.

Upon hearing about childbirth and raising children, Su Ling霜's cheeks flushed red.

But she was not a shy woman, so she followed up with: "Yes, my husband. Since we can't find our way back, why don't you stay here"

Su Ling霜 is now determined to this man before her. After all, she was originally a very traditional woman, and after paying respects to heaven and earth, she would be loyal to him with all her heart.

Secondly, she genuinely felt a sense of love at first sight. This man was exceptional and outstanding in every way, and to top it off, he was incredibly handsome.

I've met many outstanding men over the years, but compared to the one in front of me, they all pale in comparison.

Ye Bufan shook his head slightly. He was absolutely impossible to stay here, no matter what, he had to leave Yaomeng Hai and rush to the Barbaric Continent.

Su Qing didn't know how to leave. Perhaps others would, at least the three tribulation period experts from the Tonghai League should know more information.

No matter what, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, we must not give up.

Facing the pleas of his daughter and son, he remained silent, changing the subject instead: "What's going on today And who are these Meng family father and son"

When this topic was brought up, Su Qing let out a long sigh. Her expression held a mixture of worry, helplessness, and melancholy.

“The previous Meng Sheng and Meng Qi father and son came from Xihuan Island, and together with Beiling Island, they belonged to the Tonghai League’s Seventy-two Islands.”

But their strength is extremely powerful, ranking among the top three in the seventy-two islands. Compared to them, our Beiling Island is much weaker and not on the same level of strength.

And this Mong Qi person, not only was he ugly in appearance but also cruel by nature and extremely lustful. He was the most notorious scoundrel among the Seventy-Two Islands."

Ye Bufan said, "So Lord Su knew they were coming to propose marriage, so he wanted to hold the wedding in advance"

"Even relying on hydrangeas to find people is a bit too rash, isn't it"

Su Qing sighed again: "There's no other way. I know very well what kind of people the Meng family father and son are. Calling it an engagement is practically the same as kidnapping, there was no room for refusal at all."

Out of desperation, I thought of this way—to find a husband for Shuang'er beforehand and marry her off. As long as she has a husband, the Meng family wouldn't dare to propose again.

But for a time, no suitable candidate could be found. All the prominent figures on the Seventy-Two Islands feared the might of the Meng family and no one dared to accept this marriage proposal.

I have no other choice but to come up with this half-baked plan. I'll have Shuang throw a ball of embroidered silk, and whoever it hits is the one we choose.

"I didn't expect to hit Young Master Ye, it seems that Heaven favors the Su family and bestowed upon us such a husband."

At this point, a smile couldn't help but creep onto the corner of his lips, clearly extremely pleased with his son-in-law.

Ye Bufan said, "Aren't you and Xihuan Island both part of the Tonghai Alliance Shouldn't they care about their reckless behavior"

Su Qing shook her head. "The Tonghai Alliance is an organization that faces outwards, defending against demon beasts and attacks from other gangs, but its internal management is extremely loose."

"It has always been a system of might makes right, where the strongest one rules."

Ye Bufan nodded and then asked, "Since that Mongqi had his eye on Miss Su, why did he wait until today to propose"

"It wasn't that old geezer, the Grand Elder, who caused this trouble, otherwise, with West Circumference Island being dozens of thousands of miles away from North Ridge Island, he would have no idea I existed."

Su Lingfrost, standing beside him, spoke up. Due to anger, two blushes rose on her cheeks.

Ye Bufan was a little surprised: "Is there a traitor inside the island"

According to the information I have, this is indeed Elder's doing. The old geezer secretly sold my daughter to the Meng family father and son.

Su Qing sighed here, "I have no sons under my knees, only this one daughter. If I marry Su Ling霜, there will be no one to succeed me."

According to the rules of Beiling Island, in this situation, the position of the island master would be passed on to Elder Nie Baishun.

Ye Bufan nodded, as expected, where there are people, there is a world of chivalry. It seems that the struggle for power exists everywhere.

He then said, "In that case, Lord of the Island, just eliminate this traitor."

"It's not that easy."

Su Qing's face was full of helplessness, "This Nie Baishun guy is cunning and extremely good at scheming. "

He sold my daughter to Xihuan Island this time, not only wanting to use someone else to kill but also to gain a huge profit. It is said that he traded for a seventh-grade pill that can improve cultivation.

His previous cultivation was only slightly inferior to mine, but now that he has been aided by a seventh-grade pill, he will probably soon be able to break through to the later stage of the Nascent Soul.

Ye Bufan saw his worry and waved his hand casually: "Isn't it just a late stage of integration I'll help the island owner solve it."

The situation is not as Ye Gongzi thought.

Su Qing said, "Our Bei Ling Island has its own rules, which is the survival of the fittest."

Nie Baishun reached the later stage of Hunyuan, I guess he would gather all the elders on the island and publicly challenge me.

In this situation, I can't refuse or interfere, I can only rely on my own strength to fight.

If Young Master Ye makes a move, regardless of the outcome, I will lose my position as Island Lord and be scorned by everyone...

He was speaking when suddenly a shout came from outside the hall.

"Su Qing, come out! You are not worthy to be the island master of Bei Ling Island. Today, I, Nie Baishun, challenge you..."

Everyone in the hall changed their expressions. Su Ling霜 cursed, "This old bastard came really fast."

It seems this old geezer has finally broken through, but it doesn't matter. Whether it's a blessing or a curse, it can't be dodged. What's meant to come will come eventually.

"It's just death anyway, I'll give my all to tear a piece of flesh off him."

Su Qing obviously had made up his mind to die: "Young Master Ye, the only thing that worries me is Frost."

After I die, take her and leave Beiling Island. Find a safe place to live.

"Father, I don't want to..."

Su Lingxiang's voice trembled with emotion, just as she was about to speak, Ye Bufan waved his hand to interrupt her.

"Alright, alright, don't make it sound like the end of the world. It's not a big deal, I'll take care of it."

"From now on, everything will go my way, or you and your daughter will face the consequences."

"This…"

Su Qing had a puzzled expression on her face, wondering what Ye Bufan could possibly do to help her.

But at this time, it was obviously too late for him to ask further, as Nie Baishun outside had already called out for the second time.

"Su Qing, are you afraid to come out Are you going to be a turtle hiding its head You're not even worthy of being the island master!"

Yè Búfán said faintly, "Let's go take a look."

After saying that, he strode towards the outside. The father and daughter of the Su family exchanged glances and followed him out.d a faint ripple, which soon subsided and returned to its previous calm. This clearly demonstrated the formidable strength of this formation.Seeing this scene, Fang Jing's only remaining worry complet...
