Su Ping and Meng Yao travel by sea on Meng Yao's vessel, the Wave Breaking. Su Ping is curious about the Divine Wind Sparrow's tribe, while Meng Yao expresses frustration at using the advanced ship for mere sightseeing. They have traveled far from Jianghai, reaching the southeastern edge of Dragon Nation.

"Su Ping, if we don’t reach within thirty minutes, we’ll pause and I’ll send a message to the adults, and dispatch one or two more Spirit Saint Level Beastmasters to escort you."

Su Ping raised his eyebrows: "Isn’t that a bit much?"

Isn’t he just out for a sightseeing trip? Is it really necessary to exaggerate so much?

Qiao Yan shook his head: "Your identity is special now, you should also understand what happened with Nie Chuan back then. The attention and assassination of talented Beastmaster Breeders from enemy nations by different countries has never stopped.

You are the most outstanding breeding genius in Dragon Nation for many years, I can’t let anything happen to you, even if it means my death, and I can’t take the risk."

Su Ping nodded.

He wouldn’t joke around with his own life.

After all, when they left this time, apart from Zhu Hong, no one knew.

After a pause, Meng Yao continued:

"But you don’t have to be too afraid either. I estimate that your kid strength now should be much stronger than that of Nie Chuan back then.

Not to mention, just your few pet beasts and this little bird, I estimate that even if an Emperor Level Beastmaster came, they might not be able to have an easy time against you."

The two chatted idly, suddenly, the Divine Wind Sparrow on Su Ping’s shoulder began chirping excitedly.

Then, it gently flapped its wings and took to the air, pointed to an island gradually appearing at the farthest point of vision and cheered.

Extremely joyous.

They’ve arrived!

Su Ping’s eyes also lit up.

However, Meng Yao beside him gradually frowned.

The Spirit Saint Level strength allowed him to, unlike Su Ping and the Divine Wind Sparrow circling in mid-air, perceive the entire ocean, which even extended as his psychic perception.

This was the special aspect of his meditation method.

And precisely because of this, he suddenly discovered that the island surrounded by the sea right before them seemed a bit off in his perception.

"Po Lang, slow down, launch the invisibility probe disguised as a fish."

He softly spoke.

As expected, the massive warship beneath slowed its movement significantly.

And within just a few minutes, Po Lang transmitted a scene back.

This image made both Su Ping and Meng Yao’s brows furrow tightly.

The interior of the island was invisible, but on the other side of the island, a similarly sizable ship docked at the shore.

Most crucially, the ship had two flags.

The first flag bore a bizarre pink petal, standing upright on an entirely white flag.

Even Su Ping could recognize this flag.

This was the flag of Sakura Country!

As for the second flag, it was entirely crimson with a red ghost head printed on it. The text was in Sakura Country’s language, even if Po Lang didn’t sync the translation, Su Ping could understand some:

’Akaoni’

Meng Yao’s eyes slowly narrowed, emanating a cold gleam:

"Po Lang, dive underwater, Su Ping, follow me and let’s take a small boat to check it out, this is for your protection."

He didn’t ask Su Ping to cautiously stay put, not even to turn back directly.

Po Lang’s transmitted image showed clearly that this so-called Akaoni ship wasn’t even a mechanical pet beast, the aura fluctuated weakly, estimated it’s not powerful, evidently not targeting Su Ping.

Su Ping nodded, accepting the mechanical sensing protection ring handed by Meng Yao, a thrill he hadn’t noticed flashing in his eyes:

"Alright."

...

This is a very bizarre small island.

The island isn’t big, actually, its diameter barely reaches less than two kilometers.

However, the terrain on the island is extremely peculiar.

There is a smaller valley, only a few hundred meters long and a few dozen meters high.

Calling it a valley is a bit generous.

Even stranger, in the center of this valley, a thick mountain wall almost cuts the valley’s gap horizontally.

Nevertheless, a peculiar passage breaks through the mountain wall.

The passage spans only a few meters, yet stretches out dozens of meters, connecting the entire valley.

Within the valley, endless howling wind even solidifies into tornadoes whipping through the caves.

This is a naturally formed wind eye.

The unending wind within the valley, compressed by this natural vortex wind eye, forms the purest wind elements.

This is evident from the abundant wind elemental energy on this unnamed small island, and the freely available low-level wind system resources.

Furthermore, wind elemental spirits floating around the small valley surrounding the vortex are newly born under the nourishment of the wind eye.

Moreover, it seems that some wind system pet beasts have also taken up residence here.

However, today, this place isn’t as tranquil and harmonious as it should naturally be.

The traces of humans have added a touch of bloodiness.

On the other side of the island, fierce winds rage, echoing ghostly cries.

Two figures stand on the ground, gazing up at the sky.

Alongside, several wind element spirits are being captured or directly exterminated by pet beasts.

Yet, these figures pay no attention to the equally precious surrounding wind elements, directing all their focus on the few pet beasts in the sky.

In the sky, a total of ten pet beasts are engaged in fierce combat!

The numbers aren’t equal.

Three Emperor Level pet beasts distinctive of Sakura Country are among them: Double-headed Ghost Pigeon, Great Heavenly Dog, Flying Head General, high overhead, encircling a massive adult giant blue Divine Wind Sparrow with a wingspan nearly three meters.
