Chapter 1356: It Is Not Safe Here

Chen Yu and Liu Ruxi stepped onto the small island; as soon as she stepped off the boat, Liu Ruxi felt a chill wash over her.

There were not many plants on this island, and the sunlight was considered sufficient, yet for some reason, once people came up, they would feel their hands and feet go cold, as if there were something on this small island.

"Cold?" Chen Yu glanced at her.

"It's not exactly cold, but it feels like there is something bone-chillingly sinister here," Liu Ruxi said. "Does this count as Demon Qi?"

"It counts," Chen Yu smiled. "It seems you are very sensitive to these things."

"Nonsense, I deal with these things almost every day now, how could I not be sensitive?" Liu Ruxi rolled her eyes at Chen Yu speechlessly and said, "You have already disrupted my normal life."

"This is your destiny; it is not something I can change," Chen Yu smiled slightly. "I came here to protect you and ensure you don't suffer any harm."

Liu Ruxi couldn't help but glare at Chen Yu, but his statement was still quite pleasing to her, so she reluctantly agreed with his claim.

"Let's go. After arriving here, the Demon-Pointing Needle stopped working; we are too close to her," Chen Yu said. "This small island is composed of several connected islets, so it might be a bit difficult to find her."

"Mm, okay." Liu Ruxi nodded and walked forward with Chen Yu.

The small island was barren, with only an occasional larger plant; the grass on it was gray and withered, and a sense of desolation permeated everywhere.

Chen Yu and Liu Ruxi walked on it for a while when, suddenly, the sound of voices came from ahead.

"Do you know what this island is called? Devil Island. Do you know why it has this name? Just look at the environment here and you'll know."

Following the sound of the voice, a man was seen walking over from one side with three girls.

As the man walked, he spoke with spittle flying: "This time, we are going to challenge ourselves to live on this small island for a week."

"I only brought a Dagger and a set of cookware; other than that, I have nothing."

"Zhang Yang, can you really do it?" one girl expressed doubt. "Where will we find fresh water? Where will we find food?"

"Hehe, don't you worry. I've participated in wilderness survival before and have lived on islands," the man named Zhang Yang said with a chuckle. "With me here, you don't need to worry about going hungry; you'll even be able to eat seafood feasts every day."

"Hehe, keep bragging. If we get hungry, we're going back," a girl laughed.

"Chen Yu, why are there people here?" Liu Ruxi asked, puzzled.

"Looks like they are here for adventure, wilderness survival," Chen Yu frowned slightly.

Currently, a certain well-known internet influencer in the country has been posting wilderness survival videos on his Weibo.

Alone, without bringing fresh water or food, surviving in a certain place for several days and nights.

Such programs are very popular now, and many people are scrambling to imitate them, and the group of people in front of them are those who are surviving on a deserted island.

Liu Ruxi nodded slightly and said, "Should we advise them? Is this place dangerous?"

"It's not a question of whether it will be dangerous, but that it definitely will be," Chen Yu corrected her statement. "But whether these people will listen, I don't know."

"Then what should we do?" Liu Ruxi asked.

"Try to advise them as much as possible. If they really won't listen, then there's nothing to be done; let them be," Chen Yu said.

Liu Ruxi nodded. She and Chen Yu were here to handle serious business; if these people truly refused to listen to advice, then she really had no other way.

"Li Juan, Zhang Li, look, there are people here," one girl pointed toward Chen Yu and Liu Ruxi.

"Huh, there really are people." The two girls also saw Chen Yu and Liu Ruxi.

"Guoguo, didn't Zhang Yang say this place is Devil Island and that the local fishermen aren't willing to come here? How come there are people here now?" Zhang Li asked.

"Who knows? That guy's words aren't reliable. Let's just play for a day and that's it; don't take his words seriously," Li Juan said.

"Based on my experience, there is fresh water in that direction; let's head that way now."

"Zhang Yang, didn't you say this place was a deserted island? Didn't you say no one comes here? Look, aren't those people?" Zhang Li pointed at Chen Yu and Liu Ruxi.

"Impossible, people? Really?" Zhang Yang was slightly stunned. He looked back and saw Chen Yu and Liu Ruxi.

"You two, are you also here for adventure and survival?" Zhang Yang walked over and asked.

"We are not here for adventure," Chen Yu said. "We have serious business to attend to here."

"And this place is not safe. I suggest you leave as soon as possible."

"Haha, not safe? How is it not safe? Is there a Sea God on the sea?" Zhang Yang laughed loudly. "Buddy, I know you want to bring your girl here for an adventure."

"But wanting to monopolize an island is a bit much, isn't it? Everyone is here to have fun; you shouldn't be like that."

"Listen, I am only warning you, I have no other intentions. If you can listen, then listen; if you can't, then forget it," Chen Yu said indifferently. "If you think this place is fun, then feel free to stay a few more days, provided you can actually stay."

"Yo, quite the attitude, huh? Kid, where are you from?" Zhang Yang stared at Chen Yu. "I am from the Outdoor Adventure Club."

"I possess a Level 1 Adventure Qualification. Have you thought about the consequences of talking to me with that tone?"

"Level 1 Adventure Qualification?" Chen Yu laughed. "You actually take this piece of scrap paper seriously?"

The so-called adventure and survival qualifications are just things hyped up by capital to satisfy some people's vanity.

Moreover, the existence of those clubs is merely to harvest leeks.

This guy probably doesn't even know that he himself is a big leek waiting to be harvested.

Although the clubs hold some adventure and survival programs from time to time, most of these programs are pre-arranged.

Otherwise, how could a group of people suddenly have fresh water in the wild, and then suddenly have food? Only an idiot like Zhang Yang would take these things as real, right?

"What did you say? Say that again if you dare. Whose qualification did you say is scrap paper?" Zhang Yang was furious.

"Alright Zhang Yang, everyone is here to have fun, there's no need to be so serious." Guoguo hurriedly blocked both sides; otherwise, the conflict between the two sides would definitely escalate.

"Exactly, everyone is here to play together, there's no need to make it like this." The other two girls also stepped forward to persuade them.

"Chen Yu, we still have our own business to attend to," Liu Ruxi pulled Chen Yu. "It's better not to create extra trouble."
