Chapter 1049: Everyone Was Gone
Whoosh!
A beam of golden light was flashing ten thousand meters up in the sky where ordinary people couldn’t see.
Even though the planet was suppressing Chen Fan’s power and his power could only reach the Golden Core Level, his speed was still fast. He flew in the sky like a supersonic fighter with a trace of a few hundred feet of white smoke behind him. Looking up from the ground, the sky seemed to have been split in half.
“Quack!”
Some giant birds a hundred meters long flew across the sky. They were discontented when they saw a human trespassing their territories, but Chen Fan immediately got rid of them. Those who stood in his way were crushed to pieces.
“Faster, faster!”
There seemed to be a fire burning in Chen Fan’s mind.
Jin City and Chu Zhou City were only five hundred miles away and Chen Fan was almost there. Chu Zhou City still looked the same as before, but there were more people. The buildings that used to have just thirty floors back then had a couple of hundred. Countless young people in fashionable clothes were wandering on the streets. Chen Fan looked at them like people in the 90s looked at people in the 21st century.
But Chen Fan didn’t care about that at all and he went straight to Yunwu Mountain.
This was the place Chen Fan had been stationed in.
He had formed many arrays there, just in case. Before he left the planet, he once told Chen Huaian that if they lost East Mountain, they could move to Yunwu Mountain, one of the escape routes of the North Qiong Sect. The villas on the top of the mountain had also been built by the North Qiong Sect and they gave one to Auntie Tang.
“Swish!”
Chen Fan landed on the top of Yunwu Mountain.
He searched every corner of the mountain with his Immortal Will, especially the secret mansion inside. Chen Fan had stored lots of elixirs, weapons and food there and he even formed a hidden array, which was enough for Chen Huaian and the others to hide there for decades.
However.
Chen Fan discovered that the furnishings were still in place, the arrays had never been opened and the things in the base hadn’t been moved, either. It seemed that Chen Huaian, Fang Qiong and the rest of them had never been there.
“How is that possible? Did someone attack the North Qiong Sect back then? Perhaps Xiao Qiong and the others couldn’t escape in time?” Chen Fan wondered.
If it weren’t for the fact that the Soul Tablet was still there, proving that they were alive, Chen Fan would have been enraged and turned the planet over to look for the murderer.
“No, there are a few other bases. They might be hiding somewhere else.”
As he thought of this.
Chen Fan turned into a beam of golden light and shot up into the sky again.
It was morning time, so many residents had gone out and started cultivating. Although the world had changed a lot and Spirit Qi had been restored, the Spirit Qi on Yunwu Mountain was particularly active, which made it a famous sacred ground. The houses there were so expensive that even ordinary heavy hitters were unable to afford them.
When Chen Fan left, an elegant forty-year-old woman came out of the villa on Yunwu Mountain and she was surprised to see Chen Fan.
“Xiao Fan.”
However.
Chen Fan had disappeared.
The woman stayed there for a while with confusion in her eyes. Her heart felt empty, as if she had missed something. In the end, she sadly walked back into the villa.
And Chen Fan had no idea about it. He was going to the next base anxiously. Before he left Earth back then, he had built some secret bases in a few places, so people of the North Qiong Sect and the Chen family would have places to hide if someone attacked them.
He went to seven bases.
Each of them looked fine and the Dharma Arrays were still operating. Not even a candle was moved and not a single trace of people was found.
“Xiao Qiong, grandpa, where are you?”
Chen Fan became more anxious as he looked around. Even though the Soul Tablet was there, it could only prove that Fang Qiong and the others were alive, but were they OK? Prisoners in jail, beggars under the bridge and slaves in chains were all alive, but they would rather be dead.
When Chen Fan finished checking the seventh base, he looked extremely serious.
“There’s just Yingzhou Island left. If they aren’t there, I’ll have to turn the planet upside down. I must find them no matter what.”
Yingzhou Island.
It was located in Bohai Bay; it had been developed by a Golden Core Lord of the East House in ancient China. It was kind of a famous cultivation place on Earth in the ancient times. When Chen Fan occupied it, he had strengthened the arrays there to hide the island and used it as the last base of the North Qiong Sect.
“Boom!”
When Chen Fan opened the gate of Yingzhou Island, an enormous swirl appeared on the vast ocean. After entering, Chen Fan saw an astonishing sight.
The entire Yingzhou Island was full of Spirit Qi. Many beasts were flying in the sky and each one of them was at the Connate Level.
Roar!
A hundred-feet white snake in the sky was surrounded by fog and had horns on its head like a dragon, carrying a terrifying energy of the Golden Core Level. On the ground, a gigantic turtle with thunderbolts surrounding it was crawling. There was even a beautiful white horse with wings on its back speeding as fast as lightning.
“White Snake King, Black Water Turtle, Flying Horse...”
Chen Fan was shocked and thrilled at the same time.
He was shocked because he scanned the whole Yingzhou Island with his Immortal Will, but there was no sign of Xiao Qiong and the others. They didn’t seem to have come to this place at all, which disappointed him. And yet, what thrilled him was that those Golden Core Beasts were the ones Chen Fan had tamed back then. He finally met “someone familiar,” even though they were just a group of monsters.
“Screech!”
Then, there came the sound of an eagle. Chen Fan looked up and saw a giant golden eagle dozens of feet large, flashing towards him. Its feathers were all gold in color and were sharp like swords. Its claws seemed to be able to crack rocks. Its energy had even reached the mid-stage Golden Core Level. Once it appeared, the other beasts were also frightened and they lowered their heads in fear.
“You?”
Chen Fan looked up.
This giant eagle with golden wings was the beast Chen Fan took to Yingzhou Island, the same that followed him to conquer Earth.
The giant eagle was flying in the sky arrogantly, but it was stunned when it saw Chen Fan. It widened its eyes and flapped its wings quickly, trying to run away.
“Come over here!”
Chen Fan waved his hand. The giant eagle was then pulled to Chen Fan by an unimaginably powerful energy and its body even shrank to half a meter in size.
“Why? Aren’t you happy to see your Master?” Chen Fan said expressionlessly.
The giant eagle immediately shook its head and rubbed itself against Chen Fan’s shoulder.
“All right, that’s enough. Let me ask you, have you seen your female Masters and my grandpa, Chen Huaian? Where have they gone?” Chen Fan asked.
The giant eagle tilted its head and pondered for a while, then sent its Immortal Will.
Although it couldn’t speak, it could communicate with its Immortal Will.
Chen Fan frowned as he listened. “You’re saying they used to come to see you the first few years after they took you to Yingzhou Island, but they suddenly disappeared six or seven years ago and have never been here since.
“Six or seven years ago exactly?” Chen Fan asked again.
The giant eagle couldn’t think of the exact time no matter how hard it tried, so Chen Fan captured the other beasts and asked them one by one. In the end, he confirmed that it was “six years ago.”
Chen Fan’s eyes popped out.
