Facing an Ancient God for a Year
Chapter 1161 - 1159: The Value of Existence

Chapter 1161: Chapter 1159: The Value of Existence

Time’s plentiful, I say!

Fu Qian is deeply gratified by this decisiveness.

Although he doesn’t believe the other party still has the ability to make him overlook such an extent of a thought void.

But their informed and tactful response allowed him to save some SAN Points, and he could barely negotiate a cessation of crime.

When settling accounts later, he could consider giving them a discount.

In high spirits, Nini Anni seems to have slightly adapted to the new method of movement, trying to move closer to this side.

Even her mouth is moving vigorously, as if she wants to say something.

Is it time already?

Fu Qian realizes something and looks down at himself. Indeed, his flashy outfit has expired.

Just now, she must have been trying to speak to him in the previous way, but unfortunately, he can no longer hear her.

In that case...

Being fair, without saying anything, Fu Qian turns around and leaves.

As he senses the anomaly, the cause of the anomaly is quickly detected as well.

It is a long, whale-like call that traverses the endless waters, resonating uniquely with him, thus causing him to exert a particular influence over his surroundings.

As expected, the trait is heading towards him and the Superior Being couldn’t prevent this, so it chose to make this undetectable.

Of course, there’s something to do before chasing after the source of the sound.

...

Not bad, this place isn’t too far from Vivian’s Floating Island, which is comforting.

Fast as the wind, Fu Qian rushes over the sea, not caring whether such an arrogant gesture would provoke the Superior Being who had already backed off.

Fu Qian even looks forward to their reaction if provoked.

Soon, the giant trees of the Floating Island are already in sight.

The Fishmen still gather at the same spot, only they don’t seem as peaceful as before.

No wonder, after all, the song calling out to them is more anxious.

And unsurprisingly, Delanlay has actually sailed their boat back, maintaining distance and gazing at the Floating Island.

Fu Qian understands this very well. Without a way to disengage, the boat is one of the few bargaining chips they can use for trade, and the buyers are undoubtedly those on the island.

...

"Can you explain what you did?"

By the lakeside on the island, Fu Qian, who returned in an extremely arrogant manner, smiles and looks up at Vivian’s giant face.

The latter’s song had already stopped earlier, and now there’s an obvious anger in her expression as she questions him with a cold voice.

The Second Phase pressure is terrifying indeed!

"I thought you’d want to explain first."

Not only did they slack off but also damaged the production tools—no capitalist could stand that.

Understanding her attitude, Fu Qian shows no signs of embarrassment and inclines his chin towards the entrance of the cave.

At this moment, inside the lake on the island, it’s much busier than last time.

Led by Lann, all the members of the Poaching Group stand quietly in a circle at the cave entrance, oblivious to the conversation.

Of course, from a physiological standpoint, they’re all still very much alive but seem to be in a state of confusion.

Considering that this Divine Envoy might have swallowed a Mermaid, it’s not surprising that she could do this.

This Ranking gap is such that even if her singing is terrible, a mere belch could bewilder the whole group.

The only question is, why the bewilderment?

According to Vivian’s earlier statement, these humans aren’t sufficient to act as detox containers.

"This? I don’t know why they came here either."

Vivian seems not too angry at Fu Qian’s annoying habit of answering a question with another question, just giving a cold laugh.

"Why don’t you ask them for me?"

As these words were being uttered, Lann and his companions involuntarily jolted, as if their souls were slowly being drawn back into their bodies.

And as they unconsciously looked around, they were jolted twice more.

Had they really been dealt with in such a manner before they could even speak?

Seeing the evident shock on the faces of Lann and his group as they noticed Vivian, Fu Qian shook his head inwardly.

"In any case, please believe that we have no ill intentions!"

However, the very next moment, even without needing Fu Qian to speak, Lann and his companions, having heard his words, clearly sensed the confrontational situation at hand.

After a quick exchange of glances, Lann respectfully addressed Vivian who was on the other side.

"Our ship unintentionally fell into this place, and we are trying to find a way out; we came here after hearing the singing."

While speaking, Lann signaled for everyone to back away from Vivian, to clearly demonstrate that they meant no threat.

Their sincerity could be said to be full to the brim in both words and deeds.

Pfft!

Unfortunately, on their third step backward, accompanied by a strange noise, everyone was suddenly lifted into the air.

As if controlled by an invisible force, the next moment their group was compressed into a tight sphere.

The sounds of bones shattering, like bursts of firecrackers, rang out, and the sphere that landed heavily back in the water showed no signs of dispersing.

"Your Excellency..."

True to his role as the group’s spokesperson, Lann, even with blood spurting from his mouth and nose, still managed to secure a prime position within the flesh ball, facing the large beautiful face.

"Please don’t misunderstand, we really have no connection with him!"

Still unclear about the situation, huh!

Seeing this resolute individual still failing to grasp the problem, Fu Qian shook his head inwardly.

Realizing that he was in a standoff situation, quickly disassociating himself and deciding to watch from the sidelines was definitely a smart move.

Moreover, what Lann said was indeed true.

They had no personal connection with Fu Qian; in fact, they had already fallen into an irrecoverable chain of suspicion earlier, so no matter what Fu Qian said or did, Lann, as a shrewd worldly man, would certainly take advantage of any opportunity to dispose of him.

In fact, this was the very reason why they had boarded the island with a speed that shocked even Delanlay.

By that time, Fu Qian had already made it onto the island, and from their perspective, there was simply no other choice.

If there was an advantage to be gained, they had to keep up and not fall behind.

If there was danger, while ascertaining Fu Qian’s demise, they could also maximize their observation of the signs of sacrifice to gather information.

Fu Qian, in fact, had no issues with this; it was natural for people out in the worldly society not to possess the same breadth of spirit as the sea.

The problem with Lann and his people was their foolishness; they did not understand why they were still alive.

Given the vast disparity in Rank, their demeanor had no significance whatsoever.

To Vivian, the only value of these "ants" was their potential positive relationship with Fu Qian.

Not much was needed, just a slight indication to increase the likelihood of controlling Fu Qian.

Unfortunately, Lann immediately denied this possibility at the first opportunity.

"I’ve finished explaining, now it’s your turn."

Undoubtedly, Vivian completely ignored Lann’s final plea of sincerity.

During this time, it was obvious that she had confirmed through observation that there was no longer any trace of the gloves on Fu Qian, and for a moment, her killing intent grew even more astonishing.

"Isn’t it obvious?"

Feeling this sentiment, Fu Qian leapt over to the entrance of the cave, found a spot to sit down, and began to closely examine the other party.

"I’ve destroyed the gloves, and with them, the last bit of Vivian’s pure self perished and dissipated."

Facing that face distorted with extreme fury, Fu Qian continued with a smile.

"Just like Edlar..."

"And Ji Feng..."

"Stella..."

"Liliyana..."
