The Beautiful CEO's Super Soldier King-Chapter 1785: Mysterious Island
Fortunately, with Ye Chenfeng and the captain stabilizing the ship, otherwise, it would’ve been disastrous for all onboard.
This time, the ship seemed to have struck a massive reef, but the good news is that the terrifying force has vanished, and the ship will no longer be dragged along.
Ye Chenfeng returned to the deck, where everything was clear and open.
The starry sky was dazzling, the sea calm and tranquil; everything was beautiful.
But as Ye Chenfeng gazed around into the distance, he suddenly realized that everything beyond a kilometer was shrouded in darkness, his vision or spiritual power couldn’t penetrate it at all.
Not only was the sea like this, but so was the sky. This region of the night sky had no mist to obscure it, while all around was darkness.
This feeling was as if they had arrived in another world.
It was very strange indeed, and Ye Chenfeng’s brow furrowed deeply.
Soon after, Ye Chenfeng discovered the reason for the collision earlier.
They had reached an island, where the ship was now beached on the shallows.
The island was pitch-black and extremely quiet.
Ye Chenfeng sensed around and found nothing unusual.
"We will stay here tonight and set out again tomorrow."
Ye Chenfeng instructed.
He asked Chu Fengyu and Ye Tiankuang to explore the island with him, while the others guarded the ship.
Ye Chenfeng actually wanted Zero to investigate, but the guy couldn’t be found.
"I’ll go too."
Zheng Xinyi came over.
Ye Chenfeng didn’t hesitate, nodding, "Alright then."
The four set out to explore the mysterious island at night.
"You two head that way, and we’ll go this way. If there’s any situation, signal us, and we’ll meet up here when finished."
After the arrangements, Ye Chenfeng and Zheng Xinyi went east, while Chu Fengyu and Ye Tiankuang went west.
"Finally, it’s our world of two."
Zheng Xinyi showed no sign of fear; instead, she was excited, a smile on her lips.
Ye Chenfeng almost spat blood, "I mean, Miss Zheng, we’re probably facing a situation even I can’t control. How can you still find the mood to smile?"
"Why not smile? It’s such a good world of two, so romantic!"
Zheng Xinyi was utterly indifferent.
"Puff!"
A wave of heat surged over, mixed with a humid breath, making them uncomfortable.
The two traversed through the woods without any anomalies.
"See, there’s nothing happening, right?"
Zheng Xinyi couldn’t help but say.
Ye Chenfeng said in a deep voice, "Take a look behind."
"Huh? What’s going on?"
Zheng Xinyi turned and exclaimed in surprise.
The ship had disappeared, leaving only an empty sea not far away.
"What’s going on? Why is the ship gone? Could something have happened to them?"
Zheng Xinyi’s face showed a hint of seriousness.
Ye Chenfeng pursed his lips, "Nothing will happen. With Zero and the others there, even if something did happen, they’d signal me. It’s most likely the secret of this island. Unless we uncover it, it’s unlikely we’ll be able to leave."
"Really? That serious?"
Zheng Xinyi was no longer as carefree and carefully followed behind Ye Chenfeng.
"Come on, you’re an expert of the Innate Sixth Layer Heavens. Do you have to act like an ordinary person?"
Ye Chenfeng remarked.
"In front of you, I’m no different from an ordinary person."
Zheng Xinyi rolled her eyes.
"This island is indeed strange. Clearly, no one’s in sight, yet it feels crowded."
Zheng Xinyi instinctively said.
Ye Chenfeng nodded, "Yes, I feel it too."
"Look over there!"
Suddenly, Zheng Xinyi pointed ahead, where several black shadows flashed.
"Follow them!"
Ye Chenfeng and Zheng Xinyi moved like trailing shadows, instantly appearing where the black shadows had been.
But there was no sign of any shadows here...
In another direction, shadows flickered again. Ye Chenfeng and Zheng Xinyi pursued once more but still captured nothing.
"I think we’ve arrived at the Ghost Island!"
Ye Chenfeng chuckled.
"Ghost Island? Could it be that what we saw earlier were all ghosts?"
Zheng Xinyi asked.
Ye Chenfeng’s smile deepened with a meaningful expression, "Others might have trouble, but I have a way. Hold my hand tightly."
Ye Chenfeng was like a hunter, lurking, ever ready to strike.
"Swish..."
Several black shadows appeared not far away, and Ye Chenfeng moved, invoking the speed of Wind Leaves No Trace.
Simultaneously, Ye Chenfeng employed the Space Law, ensuring that no shadows could escape.
Almost at the instant the shadows appeared, Ye Chenfeng was upon them, striking swiftly.
"Puff!"
...
As soon as Ye Chenfeng touched these shadows, they immediately disintegrated into dust, dispersing into the air.
"Huh? What is this?"
Ye Chenfeng frowned deeply.
He and Zheng Xinyi exchanged a glance; they had both seen that the shadows wore pirate costumes from the 16th century.
Ye Chenfeng didn’t think much, directly touching these figures, unexpectedly, they crumbled like weathered statues from a thousand years ago.
"Not what I imagined; I initially thought they were illusions or mirages, not expecting them to be actual entities."
Ye Chenfeng mumbled in confusion.
"What do we do now?"
Zheng Xinyi asked.
"We’ll head to the west side; perhaps our two watchmen have run into trouble."
Ye Chenfeng said, swiftly leading Zheng Xinyi across the island.
On the other side, Chu Fengyu and Ye Tiankuang also quickly discovered the disappearance of the ship, but as Heavenly Realm experts, they naturally weren’t afraid, continuing through the island’s woods.
"Though we fear neither ghosts nor demons, it’s better to be cautious."
Chu Fengyu reminded once.
Soon, they too noted the presence of flickering shadows moving about.
"Sure enough, something’s amiss! Let’s chase and see!"
However, after several pursuits, they gained nothing.
"Don’t you feel occasional airflows breezing by? I think maybe something on the inside is causing illusions?"
Chu Fengyu asked.
"I think it’s possible. With the ship’s disappearance and shadows appearing, we’re either hallucinating or it’s a mirage."
As he spoke, Ye Tiankuang thrust his palms out, unleashing Crimson Flame True Essence, forcing back the wind around them.
Their vision and senses greatly improved.
More shadows appeared ahead, this time several dozens of shadows crisscrosed each other like phantoms, creating an eerie atmosphere.
"Hmph, those guys are here again. This time, don’t let them go!"
Shadows flashed before them as Ye Tiankuang and Chu Fengyu launched simultaneous attacks.
Meanwhile, Ye Chenfeng and Zheng Xinyi hurriedly rushed towards the west side. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
All along the way, shadows flickered but showed no hostility to Ye Chenfeng and Zheng Xinyi.
So they were simply ignored.
"We’re close, just three hundred meters away."
Ye Chenfeng could already sense the presence of Chu Fengyu and Ye Tiankuang.
"Not good; retreat!"
At that moment, Chu Fengyu and Ye Tiankuang’s alarmed voices sounded from not far away.
"Let’s go, something’s happened indeed!"
Ye Chenfeng immediately quickened his pace.
