"Wait, what did you just call him, Lord Sea God?" The female City Lord, at first, thought she had misheard. She looked at Geng Nian with disbelief.
Hearing this, Geng Nian remembered that she didn't know Ye Feng's identity. He immediately explained, "Uh, I forgot to mention, City Lord, Ye Feng is the successor of the Sea God!!"
"What, the Sea God's successor! Him?"
Upon hearing this, the woman was initially skeptical. She looked at Ye Feng with suspicion. This person was actually the successor of that legend?
As the City Lord of Lost City and a member of one of the former guardian families, her lifelong dream was to become like the Sea God.
Yet, Geng Nian was now telling her that this ordinary person, who hadn't even reached the Heaven Human realm, was the Sea God's successor?
Honestly, if she hadn't heard it with her own ears, she would never have believed it.
She turned and carefully examined Ye Feng. Her beautiful eyes, sharp as sword qi, seemed to pierce through him. "How can you prove you are the Sea God's successor?"
Seeing this, Ye Feng wasted no words. The Sea God's Trident materialized directly from his brow, and waves of Sea God's might emanated from it, surging towards the woman.
"This is..."
Instantly, the woman's beautiful eyes widened as if she had seen something incredible. "The Sea God's Trident, the Sea God's weapon from back then?"
"That's right!"
Ye Feng nodded. "This is the Sea God's Trident left behind by the Sea God. Now, do you believe my identity?"
"This!!"
Upon hearing this, the female City Lord's expression changed drastically. Finally, she did something that surprised Ye Feng, yet was also within his expectations.
She directly knelt on one knee and said respectfully, "I, Mo Qianning, the fifth thousand five hundredth generation successor of the Mo family, one of the Sea God's guardian families, and the current City Lord of Lost City, pay my respects to the Sea God's successor!!"
Seeing this, Ye Feng's brow twitched. However, he did not dare to presume his status and quickly said, "City Lord Mo, you are too kind. Please rise."
This was a Heaven Human realm expert. He really couldn't let this woman kneel for long.
Hearing this, Mo Qianning said no more. She slowly rose, returning to her previous demeanor. However, judging by the expression on her face, her heart was extremely unsettled.
Seeing this, Geng Nian on the side couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Just now, he was truly worried that Mo Qianning would directly ignore Ye Feng's identity, which would have been terrible.
However, before he could relax for long, the next second, Mo Qianning frowned and said coldly, "Even though you are the Sea God's successor, your actions have still placed Lost City in danger!!"
Hearing this, Ye Feng's initially happy expression faltered. After thinking for a moment, he said, "I know that. So, the urgent matter at hand is to find a way to solve this problem."
"What method do you have?" Mo Qianning looked at Ye Feng and said, her expression unchanged by his identity.
It was clear that the reason she had knelt just now was solely due to Ye Feng's status as the Sea God's successor. However, with Ye Feng's current strength, it was unrealistic to expect her to submit.
Ye Feng naturally understood this and immediately frowned. "Which city is closest to Lost City? Can we transfer everyone there?"
However, Mo Qianning shook her head. "It's too far. It takes at least a month to get from here to Empty Sky City. With so many people, large ships simply cannot transfer them all."
"A month, that long?"
Hearing this, Ye Feng also frowned. There were as many as 400,000 people in Lost City. A large ship could carry at most 40,000 people at a time. To transfer everyone, it would take at least ten trips, which was simply not enough time.
However, soon, Ye Feng thought of something and said, "I have an idea. Perhaps we can have everyone transfer to Shattered Spirit Island first."
"After the cleanup by Bixi last time, there won't be any terrifying monsters coming there for a while, so it can hold on for some time!"
"Shattered Spirit Island? Bixi?"
Hearing this, Mo Qianning was somewhat confused. She didn't know what had happened, but she still said, "Even if what you say is true, it's just like drinking poison to quench thirst. In the long run, there will still be danger."
"I know that!" Ye Feng nodded. "However, I have my own way of dealing with what comes next. Of course, this will require City Lord Mo's cooperation."
"What do you mean?" Mo Qianning was immediately puzzled.
Hearing this, Ye Feng immediately told her his plan to leave the Silent Soul Land. After hearing it, her entire expression was one of surprise.
Ye Feng, was he planning to bring everyone to Earth?
At first, she still couldn't quite believe it. After all, as the City Lord of Lost City, she knew very well that even with a transit token, it was impossible to leave.
But then she thought, Ye Feng was the Sea God's successor, perhaps he had a way. Only then did she nod.
Seeing this, Ye Feng immediately said, "Since that's the case, there's no time to delay. Let's set off quickly. Geng Nian, you are responsible for transferring the people of Lost City to Shattered Spirit Island."
"City Lord Mo, you will accompany me to the bottom of Shattered Spirit Island to check the situation, to inspect the underwater passage!!!"
Hearing this, both of them agreed without any objection and nodded simultaneously.
Soon, the large ship slowly set sail, carrying the first batch of people towards Shattered Spirit Island.
To speed up the transfer, Ye Feng was not stingy at all. He directly took out several thousand high-grade spirit stones and gave them to Geng Nian, telling him to travel at full speed.
With these spirit stones, a journey that would normally take several days was instantly shortened to one day, which Ye Feng was very satisfied with.
Seeing this, Mo Qianning was once again shocked by Ye Feng's astonishing wealth. Just as she was about to say something, a figure appeared on the coast in front of them.
"Le Yao!!"
Ye Feng's face lit up with joy. The next second, he quickly walked over. During this period, the thing he worried about the most was this woman. Therefore, the moment he saw that she was fine, Ye Feng's hanging heart finally relaxed.
Seeing this, Le Yao seemed not surprised at all. She glanced at Ye Feng indifferently and said, "You're here, kid. I thought you had died out there!"
"Uh..."
Ye Feng immediately rolled his eyes speechlessly. The way she said it, it was as if he was bound to die outside.
"By the way, let me introduce you, this is..."
Ye Feng glanced at Mo Qianning behind him and was about to introduce her, but at this moment, Le Yao stopped him with her hand and said, "No need for introductions. People from the Mo family, I know them!!"
"Hmm? You know?"
Seeing this, Ye Feng couldn't help but be surprised. However, when he thought about how this woman had lived from ancient times to the present, he immediately understood.
On the contrary, Mo Qianning looked at Le Yao with a slight frown, but in the end, she didn't say anything, simply treating her as Ye Feng's friend.
Seeing this, Ye Feng wasted no more time and immediately said, "Alright, since everyone is here, let's set off. Water Stabilizing Pearl, come out!"
As he spoke, the Water Stabilizing Pearl immediately transformed into a giant circle, enclosing the three of them, and then swam towards the sea surface.
To prevent the situation from happening last time, Ye Feng accelerated this time. Soon, the three of them arrived at the high-grade spirit stone mine.
At this moment, a scene that surprised all three of them simultaneously unfolded...
