That face.
It entered her field of vision.
Instantly, she froze in place, her mind struck as if by lightning.
"What?"
"It's actually him?"
"How is this possible?"
Even from just a side profile, Jiang Zhi recognized him immediately.
This face was far too familiar to her.
At this moment, she couldn't find words to describe the tumultuous waves in her heart.
It was truly unbelievable.
This almighty expert with incredible power turned out to be the Human Immortal she had encountered several times on the island.
She felt as if the heavens were playing a cruel joke on her.
"Oh, it's you."
At this moment, Yi Feng also turned his gaze towards her, instantly recognizing Jiang Zhi, and said with a smile, "As I expected, you've finally come to my place."
Regarding Jiang Zhi's appearance,
Yi Feng wasn't surprised in the least.
This Dark Shadow Island wasn't particularly large, but it wasn't small either.
However, the only place on this island where one could find nourishment was here with him. Once people on the island learned of this place, there was hardly any reason not to come.
Jiang Zhi's eyes widened.
He... He knew I would come all along?
Jiang Zhi found it hard to believe.
"Yes, I knew from the beginning that you would come," Yi Feng directly saw through Jiang Zhi's thoughts and said with a faint smile, "But you, stubborn and mischievous as you are, if only you had believed me earlier, why would you have suffered so much?"
"I..."
The scenes of her refuting Yi Feng in the past flashed vividly before her eyes.
"Give up, a Human Immortal can't possibly survive..."
"Don't struggle in vain anymore, no one can survive on this island..."
"You're just a Human Immortal too, where does this confidence come from..."
"..."
Thinking of this,
Jiang Zhi's face turned bright red with embarrassment, feeling too ashamed to face him, wishing she could find a crack in the ground to hide in.
But come to think of it,
Who could have known that you were such an almighty expert with incredible abilities?!
You disguised yourself as a Human Immortal, who would have believed you?
"Alright, since you're here, make yourself at home!"
"I'm going back to my room now, I have some matters to attend to."
Yi Feng waved his hand and walked back to his room after speaking.
After Yi Feng left, a group of people surrounded Jiang Zhi.
"Miss Jiang, from your conversation with the master just now, it seems you knew each other before?"
"Yes, yes, you seem to have had prior contact with the master?"
Everyone asked eagerly.
"Uh, that's right..." Jiang Zhi responded awkwardly. Under the expectant gazes of everyone, she recounted her encounters with Yi Feng when she first arrived on the island.
"Oh my, Miss Jiang, you were truly foolish!"
"Indeed, it's obvious that the wolf was killed by the master."
"Yes, and those Shadow-Devouring Fish, they were real ones. It's just that with the master's power, he wasn't afraid of them at all. And you, you silly girl, thought those fish were harmless. You were lucky, or you would have been done for long ago."
Everyone discussed animatedly.
Their words made Jiang Zhi's face flush red down to her neck. She lowered her head and explained defensively, "I just had no idea about the master's true power."
"But come to think of it, even though you looked down on the master so much back then, he didn't hold it against you at all. He even chatted with you just now like old friends. This shows that the master values you highly!"
"Old Demon Lu is right, the master clearly thinks highly of you."
"Miss Jiang, please take care of us in the future."
"Yes, please put in a good word for us when you're with the master."
"We'll be counting on your help from now on."
All of a sudden, everyone's attitude towards Jiang Zhi changed dramatically.
Because it was very likely that Jiang Zhi would become a favored person in the master's eyes in the future.
...
In the room, Yi Feng stroked his chin.
This trip out with Gong Chen, they had enjoyed food, drinks, and fun for several days without encountering any danger. No one dared to provoke him, making him realize the benefits of being a powerful expert.
Thinking of this, an idea suddenly occurred to him.
So he called out, "Old Gong!"
"Master, I'm here." Gong Chen came before Yi Feng respectfully.
"I've decided to relax the conditions and attract more people to come here," Yi Feng said casually.
Hearing this, Gong Chen was shocked.
"Master, do you mean...?"
"That's right."
Yi Feng nodded and said, "From now on, everyone on this island, as long as their character isn't particularly vile, can theoretically come here. Even if their cultivation level is a bit low, it doesn't matter."
"What a great fortune for the world!"
"A great fortune for Dark Shadow Island."
Gong Chen immediately knelt on the ground, overwhelmed with excitement.
"Uh, you don't need to be so excited."
Yi Feng was somewhat speechless.
This guy, did he think he was giving back to society and sheltering refugees?
What he wanted was to attract as many powerful individuals as possible to serve him.
It was a precaution, in case something really happened one day, he would have enough people to protect him.
"Master, say no more. I understand the profound meaning behind this!"
"I'll go tell the others right away."
With that, Gong Chen ran off to inform the others.
His face was flushed with excitement.
He had made up his mind that after he left this time, he would do whatever it took to get his son, who was outside, into Dark Shadow Island.
If there was really no way to get him in, he could always chop down a couple of envoys from the Heavenly Immortal Palace. That should be enough to get him locked up here.
And there were a few old friends who were doing quite well outside.
In the past, they always complained that he didn't tell them about good opportunities. This time, he was going to make sure they were all properly informed.
