Chapter 333 Meeting an Old Friend, The Current State of the Ideal Country, and Major Problems at Senlong Harbor (Part 2)
Two shouts echoed in the air, and the scene instantly fell into dead silence.
All eyes turned to the man and the dog, the scene was incredibly complex.
Although this suddenly appearing big shot was very powerful, I have no way to repay the life-saving grace.
But there's no need to be this obsequious.
Besides, this man and his dog are well-known professionals in Senlong Harbor. If outsiders knew that the young talents of Senlong Harbor were to immediately claim kinship with him, the harbor's reputation would be ruined.
Hmm, it seems the entire Senlong Harbor is completely rotten. Oh well, that's alright.
A few quick-witted fellows rolled their eyes and shouted, "Thank you so much for saving our lives, sir! If you don't mind, we'd like to become your godfathers!"
The unfilial son turned and glanced at the group of guys, his icy blue eyes filled with speechlessness.
"Where did this idiot come from? He's a lunatic."
Little did they know, Xiao Yun, on the other side, was speechless as he looked at the young jailer and his rebellious son.
"Are these two guys really that agitated?"
As he approached, he also discovered the existence of the rebellious son through the contractual connection.
He originally intended to deal with the deep-sea demon whales before making contact with them.
But who knew that these two naive guys would immediately claim kinship?
"Although I disguised myself very well, if someone knew their true identities, wouldn't I be exposed?"
""
Xiao Yun sighed helplessly and glanced coldly at Kong Changhao and his rebellious son.
The man and the dog also realized what was happening, and at the same time lowered their heads, weakly raising their eyes to look at Xiao Yun.
"Forget it, it's not easy for a half-grown child to wander around outside with a half-grown dog."
Xiao Yun's heart softened immediately, and he beckoned to the two of them: "Come here, let's talk when we get back."
Just then, the Mirror arrived and stopped beside the corpse of the Deep Sea Demon Whale.
Kratu emerged from the vortex, its rotting tentacles tearing at the severed body of the deep-sea demon whale. Its domineering aura spread out, driving away the wild monsters in the sea who wanted to scavenge.
At the same time, it also dispelled the last trace of greed in the hearts of the onlookers.
As everyone could tell from the time Xiao Yun stayed, he was a seventh-ranked individual and had relied on external forces to kill the Deep Sea Demon Whale.
There were quite a few seventh-sequence professionals present, a group of stray dogs who had lost everything. They had just watched Xiao Yun finish his battle and, being outnumbered and outmatched, had hoped to get a share of the spoils.
But when a mobile alchemy workshop and a monstrous undead sea monster appeared, they instantly understood.
The person in front of me is someone I can't afford to offend.
"I wonder which big guild member they are—"
Just as everyone was speculating, Kong Changhao and his rebellious son happily followed Xiao Yun to the [Mirror].
On the deck, Jing Feiwan was directing Eric to dismantle the deep-sea demon whale when he saw a man and a dog and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Hey, isn't this Changhao and his puppy? Long time no see, did you miss your big sister?"
Jing Feiwan smiled, pinching one cheek with one hand, her face full of joy.
"It's only been a few days, and the puppy has grown so handsome. Tsk tsk tsk, talent really makes a difference."
"Hehe, thank you so much, Sister Jing—oh no, thank you so much, Mommy Jing, for the compliment."
The unfilial son, halfway through his sentence, instantly realized the extraordinary relationship between his master and Jing Feiwan, and immediately changed his words.
"Heh, you're quite quick-witted at times like this."
Xiao Yun sneered and punched it.
"Hey, go easy on him, don't hurt my precious son."
Jing Feiwan rolled her eyes at him, then smiled and took the heart of the deep-sea demon whale, letting her unfilial son hold it in his mouth.
"Eat more, my good son, look how thin you are."
"Uh-huh."
The unfilial son nodded vigorously, enjoying Jing Feiwan's caresses, his eyes fixed on the heart that was twice the size of his own, drool dripping down the deck.
A heart of the Overlord level! After absorbing all the energy inside, and once the Spirit Realm grows stronger by the end of this month, wouldn't I be able to advance to the Overlord level?
Thinking of this, it couldn't help but hum softly.
"Smell it, that's enough. This is the core of my transformation into the Undead Deep Sea Demon Whale. If you actually eat it, I'll stew it for you tonight."
Xiao Yun's cold voice rang out from the contract, and the rebellious son's wolfish face instantly fell.
I was wondering why it always felt a little off; now it's just right.
The owner remains as heartless as ever.
Xiao Yun glanced at it, kicked its belly, and gestured for it to help dismantle and transport the deep-sea demon whale.
After his rebellious son left, Xiao Yun looked at Kong Changhao, who remained silent until now, and sighed.
Kong Changhao's body stiffened, and he lowered his head, sighing inwardly, "Brother Xiao probably doesn't like how I look now. And rightly so, what's wrong with a disheveled drunkard—"
'
Suddenly, a warm, large hand pressed against his head interrupted his thoughts.
The hand gently rubbed his head as it always had, and Xiao Yun's gentle voice made him feel a little dazed: "Xiao Changhao, it must be very hard for you to be all alone."
Although he didn't know why Kong Changhao had come out alone and ended up in this state.
But he knew that this kid in his early teens must have worked very hard to get here and meet him.
Through the contact of their palms, Xiao Yun could feel that Kong Changhao was trembling slightly.
He was trying his best to suppress his emotions, to appear stronger and more like a reliable adult.
However, he failed.
"Wow! Brother Xiao Yun, you're finally here—"
Kong Changhao wailed and cried loudly, recounting his experiences along the way as if pouring beans from a bamboo tube.
Some of these experiences made even the seasoned Jing Feiwan's heart clench, her eyes reddening, and she took out a tissue to wipe away his tears.
Xiao Yun listened calmly throughout, a gentle smile always on his lips.
But the constantly shifting emotions in his eyes betrayed his inner turmoil.
More than ten minutes later, Kong Changhao's voice grew increasingly hoarse, and he finished speaking.
"Chang Hao has grown up. Golden Flash, he's become a well-known professional."
Xiao Yun smiled and patted his shoulder, as if he were doing it for a real man.
He didn't mention those painful things, nor did he mention his missing master's wife or his deceased master's grandfather.
He simply said calmly, "Go back and rest, get a good night's sleep, take a shower, shave, and change into some new clothes when you get up."
"We will make everything alright."
Kong Changhao nodded emphatically and hummed in agreement.
Then, a shadow crossed his brow, and he opened his mouth, about to say something, when Jing Feiwan interrupted him.
"Alright, alright, your brother Xiao Yun is back, what else do you need to worry about?"
Before Kong Changhao could react, Jing Feiwan pulled him towards the cabin: "Come on, let's pick a comfortable bedroom. Do you want the upper deck or the lower deck?"
"Uh, thank you, Sister Jing, I'm fine with anything—"
Once the two entered the cabin, the smile on Xiao Yun's face vanished instantly.
Kong Changhao's account just now included not only his own adventurous experiences, but also his most cherished ideal world, and the current situation of others.
"It's even worse than I predicted—"
According to Kong Changhao, after he fell into a deep sleep, Ji Mingyu and Wang Tianyuan, who were the pillars of the Ideal Country, had a quarrel.
The argument went simply: Wang Tianyuan angrily accused Ji Mingyu of being the only person with the talent for "chaos" who could see through Gu Shen's scheme, yet he did nothing, ultimately leading to the disaster.
Especially regarding Ji Mingyu's decision to exile and resurrect Professor Cheng, Wang Tianyuan directly stated that this decision was utterly idiotic!
"If the whole process had gone wrong by even one step, Gu Shen's bastard scheme would have failed. He's a master of feigned ignorance, while you're just a complete idiot!"
Ji Mingyu offered no rebuttal to Wang Tianyuan's accusations.
The next day, he left a note explaining that he was going to find Mrs. Cheng, and then vanished without a trace.
Originally, it would have been fine if only Ji Mingyu had left. After development, Ideal Kingdom had become a well-structured guild, and it wouldn't have collapsed even if one or two important figures were missing.
The problem is that after Ji Mingyu left, Zhong Mo suddenly became depressed for some reason, and started to do nothing in the dormitory.
Even here, it can barely hold on.
However, after entering the Sea of No Division and the birth of the Spirit Realm, those in the Ideal Kingdom who possessed the Fire Seed and did not break the master-servant contract as Xiao Yun requested suddenly encountered problems. Their life and death became out of control, affecting the safety of the Ideal Kingdom.
Left with no other choice, Su Muqing and the little fire dragon Norton led the group away from the Ideal Country to seek a solution to the problem.
After that, Wang Tianyuan was left to fend for himself, and coupled with his already volatile and arrogant personality, he practically turned the country into a one-man show. This led to widespread resentment within the Ideal State.
Kong Changhao didn't know what happened after that, because when Su Muqing left, he left with his rebellious son, embarking on a journey to find Xiao Yun and the possibly still-living Professor Cheng.
Xiao Yun rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on: "It seems like we have some news, but the details are completely incomplete."
"The Sea of No Points is too vast; Chang Hao alone simply cannot gather complete information."
Xiao Yun sighed softly, sorting through everything before him, and gradually began to make sense of things: "Although A Yuan and Lao Pang are a bit weak in management, they are still capable. Plus, Teacher Jiang and the others are all here, so the whole thing will definitely not collapse, it's just a bit chaotic."
Xiao Yun roughly judged that as long as he returned to the Ideal Country, this chaos would quickly subside.
"Of course, this is on the premise that everyone still recognizes me as the president."
Xiao Yun smiled and quickly put this pointless suspicion out of his mind.
"On the other hand, Susu and Little Fire Dragon are in a more troublesome situation."
"The people they took with them should be the now-famous Undead Clan, but there are some problems with this."
In Eric's earlier account, the undead were described as insane and extremely aggressive, wanting to turn everyone into undead.
But this is definitely not something Su Muqing and Little Fire Dragon could do.
A cold glint flashed in Xiao Yun's eyes, and he roughly guessed what was going on: "There are some ambitious people mixed in, and there may be a scoundrel like Gu Shen stirring things up."
"After we finish dealing with the Senlong Harbor matter, I need to go find Susu and Little Fire Dragon. Their situation is probably not good."
Xiao Yun's eyes were full of worry, and he was somewhat anxious.
If it weren't for the contract he signed with Nicholas, and his unwillingness to betray his conscience and the entrustment of the dead, he would have wanted to let Senlong Harbor fend for itself.
However, he quickly regained his senses and began to formulate a plan.
"Senryu Harbor is rich in a substance called 'biogel,' which can be used to reattach severed limbs and missing organs."
"After alchemy modification, it can even be used to modify armed human bodies to achieve the effect of rapid strengthening."
"Recently, its administrators and research team were studying goblins and preparing to try to cultivate life using [biogel] as a substrate—but they accidentally caused a large number of goblins to escape, leading to the current situation."
The above information was provided by Nicholas. Kong Changhao, as the person involved, also provided detailed information about the goblins.
"Goblins, just like in games and movies, have a strong reproductive drive, are quite intelligent, can set up all kinds of traps, cast curses in inconspicuous places, and weaken their enemies—and they are also very resilient and grow very fast."
"The reason why Senlong Harbor fell so quickly is because a goblin high priest who almost reached the legendary rank appeared among the goblins here. With the help of a power called 'totem,' he can even possess true legendary rank strength."
Xiao Yun organized all the information and quickly came up with a plan.
"There is a system that can predict the location of traps and curses on the island in advance, so these are not a concern."
"As for the rest—just push forward without hesitation."
After the battle with the Deep Sea Demon Whale, Xiao Yun had a general understanding of his current strength.
With all buffs activated, killing a top-tier opponent is a breeze, and the Goblin High Priest in his normal state is nothing to fear.
With the addition of Kratos and the newly joined Deep Sea Whale, both of whom can be upgraded to legendary status at any time using the Ring of Death, even if the High Priest has a trump card, they are definitely no match for him.
"If all goes well, it should be over soon."
Xiao Yun felt a little more at ease.
Just then, a ship approached.
Several powerful-looking professionals with extraordinary presence stood on the deck, bowing respectfully to Xiao Yun.
"Sir, we would like to ask for your help in reclaiming the harbor. Whatever reward you require, we will do our best to provide it. We will also share any information you may have."
"That's exactly what I came here for, so come up and say it."
Xiao Yun waved his hand casually, beckoning them to come up.
The reward was secondary; the main thing was that these guys were clearly high-ranking officials from Senlong Harbor, and the information they knew could help him refine his plans.
"With information from these people, things might go more smoothly."
As Xiao Yun listened to these people's stories, he organized the information in his mind while casually opening the panel and using up his last refresh opportunity for the day.
But when the preview information appeared before his eyes, Xiao Yun suddenly realized...
"The problem with Senlong Port is probably bigger than I've seen."
