: The Dead Thieving Father and Son It was such a strange sound – they couldn’t block out the noise no matter how hard they covered their ears – it was as if the spirits were screaming from a pain imprinted on their very souls.

It was scary even to those just listening.

The screams eventually subsided, then disappeared altogether.

The undead regained their senses and looked toward Ming Xi’s group blankly at a loss.

One of them wanted to go up and ask, but when he stepped forward, it dawned o n him that he was dead.

The spirits behind him realized the same thing.

The unpleasant realization turned their faces black.

Despite this, they thanked Feng Wu politely for purifying their souls before disappearing into the sky one by one on their way to being reincarnated.

Feng Wu wasn’t a necromancer but she gained a lot of benefits from helping them.

The two undead with the most evil aura remained.

They were hesitant to speak up, but it was clear they wanted to say something.

Feng stared at them with a puzzled expression.

It was clear they wanted to speak, but they were hesitating.

Upon seeing Feng Wu’s expression, Ming Xi asked her if something happened.

Feng Wu didn’t hide anything and told him about the two undead who were behaving abnormally.

Ming Xi guessed the men probably knew something so he asked Feng Wu to ask them.

Feng Wu obediently asked them why they didn’t want to leave.

The two men gritted their teeth, a little embarrassed to speak, but eventually they pulled up the courage and explained the situation.

The two men, one in his fifties, the other in his early twenties, said they were a father and son team who fished on the island.

They were digging on the island one day, when they discovered a cave that didn’t seem to lead out.

They knew they should have reported it to the authorities, but they were a little greedy and wanted to see if there were any valuables hidden inside first.

They weren’t going to hide the existence of the cave; they just wanted to get what they could first before reporting it.

The two didn’t know their greed would harm everyone on the island.

They walked inside for a long time before they finally reached the end of the narrow passage.

By that point they were underground, below the island.

There, they found an ornate box two meters long inlaid with many gems.

The two were just ordinary fishermen; the sight of so many precious stones left them dumbfounded.

A white seal imbued with red magic spells laid in the center of the box.

If they hadn’t been greedy and reported the discovery directly, Mrs.

Normandy would have known it was a high-level seal scroll, the kind generally used to seal terrifying monsters.

But the father and son didn’t have that kind of knowledge.

They were blinded by how valuable the box was.

Since the exterior was so amazing, then whatever was inside had to be valuable.

It only took them three seconds to decide to remove the seal and open the box.

Now, to use the seal to imprison whatever monster inside had taken a great deal of effort, but removing the seal was not so.

The two men easily removed the seal covering the box.

They excitedly opened it to see what was inside only to be greeted by black mist.

That was the last thing they remembered.

The two got themselves killed before even seeing what was hidden behind the mist.

By the time they regained consciousness, they were already part of the undead.

They regained their sanity after Feng Wu purified their spirit.

It was a shocking story.

“What?! It turns out those two ruined the entire island!” The men were so angry they wanted to kill the father and son again with their own hands.

It was all because the two men were greedy that so many people died and the island became a living nightmare.

They had brought disaster to everyone and everything on the island.

No one was sad they two men were dead.

In fact, if they hadn’t died, they would have been captured and killed in front of everyone to avenge all those who had perished.

The two men desperately apologized, but unfortunately no one other than Feng Wu could hear them or see them.

“Both of them be damned!” Goffman wished he could cut them to pieces, but unfortunately, they were already dead and who knew if their bodies were still whole after being exposed to the black mist.

“Have them take us to the entrance.” Ming Xi was more rational than the other men.

He didn’t waste time cursing them but instead focused on finding the entrance and resolving the issue as soon as possible.

They didn’t know what it was that had been sealed away that could make the entire island turn like this.

Whatever it was, it was not simple.

The father and son weren’t villains in the truest sense of the word.

Their greed had blinded them but they never intended to harm anyone.

Once they found out so much blood was on their hands, they desperately tried to think of ways to make up for their mistake.

With such a strong regret in their hearts, even after Feng Wu purified them, it was still impossible for them to reincarnate.

Upon hearing Ming Xi’s request, the two men didn’t even have to think about it.

They agreed immediately.

They led the group to the entrance then proceeded to lead them to the box.

The father and son were in the front, followed by Feng Wu and Ming Xi.

Ming Xi was afraid Feng Wu would be in danger so he held her hand.

Tian Ya followed them.

He was responsible for protecting Ming Xi so he couldn’t be too far away.

It was a narrow passage and only one person could fit through at a time.

Ming Xi and the others had to slide through sideways one by one.

The island was filled with black mist, but oddly enough, the passageway was completely clear and the air was clean.

This was probably why when Mrs.

Normandy sent people to search the island, they failed to find the source.

It was natural to think wherever the source was, it would be the place with the densest amount of black mist.

Who would have thought the source was actually the cleanest, clearest place.

The group walked for a long time before reaching the end.

There really was a box inlaid with precious gems.

And the lid was open slightly.

They could see a steady stream of black mist seeping out from the small gap.

But the mist didn’t rise upwards, instead it sunk down into the ground and disappeared.

This made everyone frown.

“What should we do now? How about we seal it again?!” No one suggested opening the box all the way.

It was already scary enough being partially open.

How the higher ups would react, he did not care.

He just wanted to spend the next few days with his sister.

Feng Wu, was of course, very pleased to see her brother.

The next two days saw the two siblings playing everyday by the beach catching fish and crabs.

Feng Wu wrought disaster to all kinds of fish on the island.

She enjoyed everything very much, but she didn’t forget to pack some of the island’s specialty back home.

Juntian couldn’t stay too long.

He was one of the generals and had a lot of responsibilities, so after three days, he had to say farewell to his sister and return to Star Marshall hall.

Feng Wu, Ming Xi and Ai Lin set off the same day.

They chose to return to Zhongyang by boat in order to enjoy the scenery along the way.

Feng Wu was still unaware her precious son had been missing for several days and that the entire school was going crazy trying to find him.

She lived a leisurely life on the boat and ate good seafood every day.

Ai Lin found an opportunity to talk to Feng Wu alone and ask about what happened on Blue Moon.

Once Feng Wu narrated everything, Ai Lin understood.

She was a little envious.

Speaking of the girls, Feng Wu and Zi Cheng were time traveling girls like her.

Zi Cheng had an endless stream of hotties hanging onto her, not to mention the most excellent male protagonist who strove to take care of her every whim.

Feng Wu wasn’t the heroine but she caught the attention of the future Moon emperor.

She did even better than Zi Cheng, who was the heroine of the story.

Then there was the reborn Zo.

Ai Lin heard he had a crush, a girl he liked from his previous life.

It seemed like everyone had someone.

She was the only single dog! It was heartbreaking! Ai Lin took out a compact mirror and looked at her reflection from several angles.

It was really impossible.

She was clearly good looking! Why were there no hotties hanging around her?! It made no sense! As a single dog, Ai Lin felt she’d been stabbed ten thousand times.

Once they got back to the academy, Ai Lin was about to go out and comfort her heart with some delicious food when she heard the news about Feng Wu’s son.

Someone actually dared kidnap the kid! No one knew who did it even after so many days.

Feng Wu was extremely anxious when she found out.

She immediately wanted to go and look for him, but after reading the note Little Bun left behind, she decided not to do anything.

She sat down calmly and went back to eating and drinking like normal.

Her reaction was too abnormal! Was she having a mental breakdown? Jier and the others were worried she was overstimulated.

“Xiao Wu, are you OK?” Ink looked carefully at Feng Wu as she bit a chicken leg.

“Xiao Wu, don’t worry too much.

Xiao Ye will definitely come back safely.” Xi quickly reassured.

“Yeah, Xiao Wu, you have to trust everyone.

With all of us helping, Xiao Ye will definitely come back.” Annika said with a face that said trust me.

Jasmine was annoyed and her heart was conflicted when she saw how everyone was fumbling.

She looked at Feng Wu but refrained from saying anything unpleasant.

She sat and drank her tea quietly.

“I believe Xiao Ye will come back.

Didn’t he write a letter?” Feng Wu said with a straight face after swallowing her bite of chicken.

No way, did she really believe what the little guy wrote? He wasn’t even two! Such a little kid, are you sure you should believe his words so readily? Everyone was silent...

Hahaha...

Suddenly, they didn’t now what to do.

It was a conundrum.

Should they persuade her not to believe the letter or should they persuade her everything would be all right? Both choices left them conflicted.

Her reaction was too hard to handle! In the days following that, many senior brothers and sisters familiar with Little Bun came to comfort her.

They promised they would find Xiao Ye.

They wouldn’t give up until they found him.

He was the school’s mascot! Whoever kidnapped him clearly didn’t want to live anymore! Wait, what was a mascot? On the third day, Feng Wu came back, she received a sealed letter.

There was no sender address, but her name was clearly written on the envelope.

When the old man at the door handed her the letter, Feng Wu had no idea who could have sent it.

The letter answered everything.

The letter, written by the kidnapper, said that if Feng Wu wanted Feng Ye back then she had to go to Sin city alone.

If she brought anyone else, then Feng Ye would be killed immediately.

Feng Wu thought for a few seconds before deciding to go to Sin city alone and picking up Little Bun.

Children shouldn’t play for too long outside.

Master said good children should return home after playing.

magicWhat was Sin city? It was paradise for villains and criminals.

There were no laws or restrictions and the only rule was respect for the strong.

While other major cities restricted the use of magic and martial arts and made murder a crime, Sin city had no such restrictions.

If someone wanted to kill another person in Sin city, no one would stop it.

As long as you were strong enough to do it, you could kill whoever you wanted.

Crimes happened every day; things like theft and abduction were trivial matters.

Sin city had its own set of rules and it always revolved around strength.

Outsiders going in would be eaten alive if they didn’t know how to fend for themselves.

Sin city took in criminals from other cities who committed serious crimes but for whatever reason could not be killed.

Such criminals were not allowed to leave the city.

Like everyone else, whether they survived or not, depended on their abilities.

Because Sin city amplified the darkest part of human nature, even little children learned how to get by.

Don’t be fooled by their youth; some were as ruthless as adults.

In short, Sin city was an extremely dangerous place.

For those too weak, the danger was tremendous.

This was the city Feng Wu would go to alone.

Before leaving for Sin city, Feng Wu called back the irresponsible Lydia and Rui Baby.

The two contracts were living a life of leisure, wandering around all day and playing around all night, never having to answer to their master.

After getting her contracts back, Feng Wu left a note saying she was leaving to go and pick up Little Bun...

and that was it.

After leaving campus, Rui Baby suggested Feng Wu go to the Adventurer’s guild to learn more about Sin city.

A delicate girl asking about such a nasty city caused many of the adventurers there to stare at her.

Some even tried to persuade Feng Wu to think twice about it.

Once a cute girl like her entered, with all the scum in the city, she’d be eaten alive.
