God of Fishing

Chapter 707: Xia Xiaochan Gone Missing

Refining with the Demon Purification Pot required nothing but imagination and an investment of spiritual energy.

Han Fei's first thought was to fix the Water Dividing Seal, which had been broken earlier. It showed that even an ultra-quality spiritual weapon with a sealed soul still wasn't good enough against a Heavenly Talent.

As it happened, the Water Dividing Seal was a great weapon to slap people, except that his technique was too lousy.

Also, Han Fei thought that the approach that the technique adopted wasn't powerful enough. He decided he should get a powerful seal technique from the Logistics Division and deduce it to a higher level.

Inside the Demon Purification Pot, a harpoon was refined into a big seal, and the materials were being compressed crazily.

A seal must be small enough to be held in one hand. When it was thrown out by a technique, it could turn large and heavy and smash the enemy.

A moment later, Han Fei took a deep breath. He had consumed two million points of spiritual energy in storage when the small seal slowly flew out of the Demon Purification Pot.

Information popped up in Han Fei's eyes.

<Name> Golden Seal

<Introduction> This is a weapon forged with the Red Sun Mystic Crystals. It weighs 88,000 kilograms and can penetrate any armor at a high speed.

<Quality> Semi-Divine Weapon

<Sealed Spirit> None

<Recastable>

<Unrefined>

Note: Because of the restrictions of its materials, it can only be reforged into a semi-divine weapon at best.

Han Fei weighed the Golden Seal and felt that it was too light.

"As I expected, it can't compare to Needle. It weighs only 88,000 kilograms. But it's a semi-divine weapon anyway, and it must be of a high quality. After all, it was rather large as a harpoon, and it's now so small after being refined into a seal."

After storing the Golden Seal, Han Fei took a glance and realized that he only had 560,000 points of spiritual energy left, not enough to refine another semi-divine weapon. He had to eat fruits for a couple of more days before he continued his work.

On the next day, after the training with the 108 Desolate God Body, Han Fei found two million more points on his badge. He had slightly more than 2,160,000 points.

At the bottom on the front of the badge were the words, "Guardian of the Sea" and a pattern above it with the number "30" next to it.

Also, after the title was added to the badge, Han Fei saw that the badge was covered in a bright sheen.

As it happened, You Lingyun and Wu Xiaoxiao were walking over to him.

Wu Xiaoxiao spoke first, "Captain, our team should be on duty today. You haven't been around, and Deputy Commander Cao is always too busy studying poisons to set sail with us. So, we've been going to the sea with only four of us."

Han Fei hummed a response. "That's fine. I can tell that You Lingyun will become an intermediate Hanging Fisher very soon. You'll have a breakthrough in a couple of days, right?"

You Lingyun nodded. "That's right. There will be a breakthrough within three days."

Han Fei said with a smile, "After your breakthrough, I'll name you the captain. Then you can hire someone else for the team."

You Lingyun slightly changed her expression, and Wu Xiaoxiao simply grabbed Han Fei's clothes and said cutely, "Captain, are you going to abandon us?"

Han Fei hurriedly pulled his clothes back. "Let's just talk, alright… I'm just too busy to be a captain!"

Wu Xiaoxiao said cautiously, "But isn't being a scout your main job?"

Han Fei simply changed the topic and said, "Hey, do you know why this badge is glowing?"

Everybody finally noticed Han Fei's badge. They all gasped, and Gu Daliang asked in shock, "Captain, what have you done?"

Han Fei scratched his head. "Huh?"

Leng Hui explained, "You can't get the honor as a Guardian of the Sea without making huge contributions."

You Lingyun added, "It's impossible to get an honorary title through regular defense battles, unless it's a massive battle and you make major contributions. Or, is there something we don't know about?"

Then, You Lingyun and the others all stared at Han Fei.

Han Fei came back to himself. "Hey, it's nothing. I merely proposed a possibility to refine semi-divine weapons. It hasn't been verified yet…"

"Semi-Divine weapons?"

All of them were shocked. It was already hard enough to get ultra-quality weapons with sealed souls unless they got four stars. But their captain had already got four stars and become a refiner soon after he arrived, not to mention that he even got an honorary title.

It was certainly impossible to tell You Lingyun and the others about the exploration in the treasure trove.

Han Fei couldn't help but smile. "It's nothing. Let's go on patrol! We haven't done reconnaissance for a long time… Right, Wu Xiaoxiao, have you changed your technique?"

Wu Xiaoxiao was amused. "I changed it two months ago."

"Oh? Is that so? Practice it harder and try to become an intermediate Hanging Fisher faster. Your breakthroughs are too slow. Look at me. I'm already one."

Wu Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes and thought, I won't compare myself to you…

…

In the sky above the Skeleton Shore, Han Fei spread out his senses. "There are few creatures here today!"

You Lingyun asked, "They weren't poisoned yesterday?"

Han Fei scoffed. "How could they have all been poisoned?"

Wu Xiaoxiao said, "It may sound unbelievable, but Deputy Commander Cao's poison was truly terrifying. Those creatures all mauled each other, and the poison spread everywhere. Did you not see that nobody scavenged on the Skeleton Shore today?"

Han Fei frowned. "Is it really so powerful?"

Leng Hui explained, "All the poisoned creatures will spread the poison. However, it seems that the toxicity will drop as it spreads out. Its symptoms are similar to those of the Poison God."

Han Fei was rather shocked. No wonder Cao Qiu charged such a high price. He really had developed a powerful poison.

Han Fei decided that he should talk to him later and see if he could get some of the new Poison God Plus.

Two hours passed.

Han Fei shook his head. "Forget it, I haven't seen a single exotic creature today. Let's head back!"

Gu Daliang was confused. "There aren't many exotic creatures even on other occasions…"

Han Fei was lost for words. Why do you keep undermining my authority?

Han Fei said insightfully, "Daliang, you're just too frank. By logic, a frank person should be a fast cultivator, but look at yourself… Is your weapon box full now?"

Han Fei was going to talk Gu Daliang into buying more weapons on credit, when he saw a boat flying towards him at a high speed with Le Renkuang on it.

Han Fei waved his hand. "Le Renkuang, what brought you here? I went to your place yesterday and you weren't there."

However, when Le Renkuang came closer, Han Fei noticed something wrong.

Le Renkuang was always smiling under normal circumstances. He often made jokes with Han Fei and then discussed what to eat with him.

But this time, Le Renkuang looked quite awful and panicked.

Han Fei's heart became heavy. "What happened? What's wrong?"

Le Renkuang said with shivering lips, "I'll tell you, but don't get too excited yet. Things might not be very serious."

Han Fei instantly became grave. How could things not be serious when he was so panicked?

Nearby, You Lingyun and the others sensed Han Fei's different vibe, which became oppressing.

How could he have unleashed such a horrifying pressure when he was merely an intermediate Hanging Fisher?

Han Fei said impatiently, "Tell me. What happened? You're here, but Zhang Xuanyu, Luo Xiaobai and Xia Xiaochan aren't…"

Suddenly, Han Fei trembled, as Liang Tian mentioned earlier that Luo Xiaobai was involved in an operation with the Scattered Stars First Unit.

Instantly, Han Fei roared, "Did anything happen to Luo Xiaobai?"

Le Renkuang quickly shook his head. "Not her, not her."

Han Fei was relieved, but then he got anxious again. If it weren't Luo Xiaobai, and because Zhang Xuanyu was with the inspectors and should be safe, Xia Xiaochan was the only person who was always out.

BAM!

Spiritual energy exploded from Han Fei. "Did anything happen to Xia Xiaochan?"

Le Renkuang said in panic, "Don't be excited, don't be excited. She's just not back yet. It's possible that she will return soon."

Hum!

The Wind God Boat appeared in the sky. Seeing that, Le Renkuang recalled his boat and jumped on the Wind God Boat. "Wait a moment, don't get excited yet."

Han Fei glanced at You Lingyun and the others. "You go back now."

Leng Hui simply controlled the boat to fly away quickly.

Wu Xiaoxiao asked, "Hey, why are we leaving so fast? It's possible that the captain needs our help."

Leng Hui said casually, "We won't be of any help."

"How do you know? Didn't you see how terrifying the captain became?"

"The captain's friends can't be weak. Do you think we can defeat the captain if we fight him together?"

Wu Xiaoxiao cried, "But we can still do our part!"

Leng Hui shook his head. "We'll only hold him back. Don't forget that our captain has seniors on the Scattered Stars Island."

You Lingyun agreed, "That's right. We probably won't be of any help even if we go with him."

…

On the other hand, Han Fei held back his fury and asked coldly, "How did she go missing? Doesn't the Dark Hunter Legion always go hunting together? Tell me."

Seeing that Han Fei calmed down, Le Renkuang said, "This is what happened. I received a mission to deliver assets from Xia Xiaochan's Dark Hunter Legion today. They're large batches of Spirit Awakening Fluid. During the mission, I overheard that Xia Xiaochan might have been attacked… I asked them further and learned that Xia Xiaochan left her team and went missing."

Han Fei asked, "Did they send a search party?"

"They refused to tell me."

Han Fei frowned, and his lips twitched hard. "Didn't you tell them of our relationship? You could've revealed the Thug Academy too!"

"I did! But they kicked me back."

Han Fei's eyelids shivered. "F*ck. When did it happen?"

"A moment ago. The assets must've just been shipped to the Logistics Division. I came to you the moment I learned of the news."

Han Fei clenched his fists, narrowed his eyes, and took a deep breath. "If I go to the Dark Hunter Legion, will they ignore me?"

Le Renkuang shrugged. "Probably. The Dark Hunter Legion always keeps its secret."

Han Fei's lips trembled. "Let's go to the Empyrean Waterfall!"
