Light Fortress

Chapter 1800: Chapter 426: Trust, Kill (Part 2)_3

Light gauze and radiance flowed.

She stepped out of the Cloud Ship, into the void of the Old World. The sacred brilliance of the Light Domain poured out, illuminating the pitch-black void. At this moment, Batu suddenly realized something important. freewёbnoνel.com

He had never noticed that the glow emanating from Meng Xizhou was so dazzling.

The light of the Lord Divine felt oppressive and stern.

The current radiance.

Instead made one feel relaxed, healed.

Is there truly a difference between light and light? But which kind of light was he seeking?

"Before I return, I leave the management of this Cloud Ship to you... The West Continent Fleet must not cross this boundary."

Meng Xizhou softly said, "Batu, can you do this?"

A dazed Batu came to his senses.

He knelt on one knee and said word by word, "Lady Divine, please rest assured."

...

...

In the void, the Eastern Continent Source Energy Boat Fleet was arrayed and hovering, advancing swiftly.

"Young Master, currently we have not discovered..."

Luo Yu’s spirit connected to the closed network of these dozen Source Energy Boats, following the clues from the Heavenly Eye explosion in the Deep Sea, the fleet arrived at the explosion site outside the snowy mountains.

The orderly origin matter clues pointed towards the path Silver Fox had left.

Although Gu Nanfeng’s mission was to find Gu Shen, he currently had no other way but to follow the Extraordinary Aura left by Silver Fox, as the Old World is too vast for aimless searching, which would be less efficient.

Just as the Eastern Continent Fleet advanced rapidly towards the location where Silver Fox was trapped.

A Black Silver Airship appeared on the flight path.

"Wait! There it is!"

Luo Yu’s eyes lit up; his voice became excited and thrilled.

"Young Master, it is Gu Shen’s airship!"

Everyone saw the images of the Silver Bombardment on the umbrella defense line earlier, and the airship driven back by Green Silver was the one in front!

Gu Nanfeng took a deep breath, he opened the Lan Qie Domain, came out alone onto the side of the ship, squinting at the swiftly arriving Black Silver Airship... at this moment, there was only one person on the airship.

Moments later.

The Eastern Continent Fleet had an additional unmanned autonomous airship, and the only "sole survivor" Bai Xiu on the Black Silver Airship was invited onto the main boat where Gu Nanfeng was.

"What happened in the Old World?"

Gu Nanfeng asked urgently, yet Bai Xiu only shook his head; after their eyes met, Gu Nanfeng understood Bai Xiu’s meaning.

He waved everyone away, including Luo Yu.

When there were only two of them left.

Bai Xiu began to speak; he narrated exactly what transpired after the Black Silver Airship left Chanyi City... what he personally witnessed, he described in detail.

In the Calamity Barrier, Silver Fox was held by Origin Strong People from the Traveler Clan and was still embroiled in a fierce battle.

And the events he did not witness.

Bai Xiu told the truth about them too.

On the way back, they encountered the dying White Lizard, but did not see any trace of Rustbone.

Bai Xiu was suspicious of the "White Lizard", but before he acted, Gu Shen made the first move.

Lastly, when heading back to the Fortress, they were bombarded.

After detailing all these events.

"This bombardment was likely initiated by the Deep Sea; it does not want Gu Shen to enter the Five Continents." Bai Xiu said, "Gu Shen told me to take this airship to a place... he told me that if I encountered someone trustworthy on the way, I should share this ’truth’."

The Deep Sea planned this chaos!

"Do you think I am someone trustworthy?" Gu Nanfeng heard this truth, but his expression remained unchanged; instead, he posed this question.

He hardly interacted with Bai Xiu and had almost no dealings.

When it comes to interactions.

Their only connection was Gu Shen.

But when discussing trust between them... while Gu Nanfeng pondered his heart, he acknowledged he wasn’t at a level where Bai Xiu could trust him unconditionally.

"No."

Bai Xiu shook his head, "This is what Gu Shen said."

"Mu Wanqiu, Shen Li, Gu Nanfeng, Lin Lin."

Bai Xiu spoke four names; he slowly said, "According to Gu Shen, if I encounter these four people in the Old World, I can reveal the ’truth’."

After leaving Gu Shen, the flight path of the Black Silver Airship traversed against the Extraordinary Aura left by the Silver Fox... This segment very likely would encounter Source Energy Boats tracking the aura.

In Gu Shen’s opinion, those he could trust were not limited to these four.

But judging from the current circumstances, likely these are the ones reachable in the Old World.

Gu Nanfeng felt somewhat relieved.

He continued to ask, "If you hadn’t encountered me, but someone else instead?"

"I would confirm whether the Deep Sea has already issued a wanted order..."

"If it has?"

"If it has, then the truth is Gu Shen betrayed humanity, and I am also a victim."

Bai Xiu expressionlessly said, "Finding reliable allies is only one of my objectives. If I can’t find them, I will keep going until I reach the ’end’."

"The end?"

"I will not return inland through the North Continent Fortress... I will sail east along the Northern Fortress, ultimately heading to the East Sea."

Little Xiuzi softly said, "As for the final destination, it is the East Sea."

The East Sea is vast.

And Bai Xiu had no intention of providing Gu Nanfeng the coordinates of this location.

Their time exchanging words was not long; having confirmed this encounter was not accidental but meticulously crafted, Gu Nanfeng finally breathed a sigh of relief, and solemnly asked, "So where is Gu Shen?"

The person he most wanted to meet now was neither Silver Fox nor Bai Xiu.

But Gu Shen.

The wanted order issue can be resolved.

Gu Nanfeng feared most that the chaos orchestrated by the Deep Sea was not meant to permanently mar Gu Shen’s reputation; as long as the Eastern Continent Fleet returned to the Fortress, Mr. Bai Shu and Her Majesty the Empress would naturally restore Gu Shen’s reputation.

If this chaos affecting the Old World concludes with Gu Shen’s death.

Then reputation would indeed become irrelevant.

"I do not know Gu Shen’s specific coordinates."

Bai Xiu took a deep breath, "He said he was facing the pursuit of a very powerful person."

"So you just left? You didn’t stay with him?"

Gu Nanfeng asked anxiously; however, just as he spoke, he paused.

Considering Gu Shen’s current state, he mentioned a very strong, very powerful person.

Someone requiring Bai Xiu to be driven away for him to face alone... freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

Combining with the previous occurrences in Light City...

Who that person is.

It’s honestly quite obvious.

Gu Nanfeng suddenly realized that before he left the umbrella defense line, he hurriedly ended the Spiritual Link, the last contact he had with Meng Xizhou.

He suddenly knew how to find Gu Shen.

Gu Nanfeng lowered his voice, which echoed in the command room.

"Luo Yu, turn around."
