Marrying Wife and Concubine Together: After Rebirth, I Remarried the Scumbag's Father on the Sp

The saintess stepped forward and took her arm: "It's not too late to come now. Are you hungry? I've had the kitchen make you some chicken noodle soup!"

Lin Yiwan was really hungry; she had been extremely exhausted the night before.

The group went to the dining room and each drank a bowl of fragrant chicken noodle soup.

Lin Yiwan felt that such days were truly comfortable. No wonder it was called Fairy Island; it truly deserved to be called a paradise on earth.

After eating and drinking their fill, the two followed the saintess to that very mysterious secret room.

She said worriedly, "Ah Yan, Ao Ge and I have tried everything but haven't been able to open it. I wonder if you have the ability!"

Zhan Yan smiled, his eyes narrowing: "Mother, it seems your brother Ao isn't omnipotent after all!"

The saintess frowned and glared at him: "Don't talk nonsense. He is skilled in both literature and martial arts, and is also the wise and powerful prime minister of the Li Kingdom. He is already very capable, okay?"

Before Zhan Yan could say anything, Min Ao said with a happy expression, "Thank you for the compliment, Madam!"

Lin Yiwan almost chuckled to herself. It turned out that Min Xiang, who seemed as cold as ice, was actually so obsequious in front of his mother.

Sure enough, one thing brings down another thing!

Zhan Yan couldn't bear to see how much Prime Minister Min's wife doted on him, so he immediately strode forward and pushed him aside.

The stone wall was covered with green moss, and the cool, damp air was filled with the scent of aged pine resin. The candlelight was dim, and the bronze chains in front of me gleamed with an eerie light. The rust on the chains looked like congealed blood, and when they were shaken slightly, they made a soft tinkling sound.

In the corner, a dark wooden shelf was filled with pottery jars sealed with cinnabar seals and yellowed ancient books. Between the pages were dried, exotic flowers, and with a casual movement, powder would fall in a flurry.

The central stone platform was covered with dark-patterned animal hide, and a black jade compass was embedded in it, its pointer firmly fixed in the northwest corner—where a stone door engraved with cloud and thunder patterns wafted out from the crack in the door, carrying a sandalwood and cool fragrance.

Ancient runes were carved into the stone wall, and the flickering candlelight seemed to indicate the presence of living creatures.

Concealed bronze buttons are located on both sides of the compass. Pressing the left button will automatically rotate the pottery jar on the stand, revealing a hidden compartment underneath; turning the right button will trigger a groove in the ground, which will pop out three poisoned black iron spikes.

"Retreat quickly!" Zhan Yan was the first to react, immediately protecting the others as they retreated.

The black iron spike clattered to the ground, and the surroundings instantly returned to silence.

Min Ao couldn't help but say, "Ayan, this mechanism is really dangerous, so please be careful!"

Zhan Yan was also shocked and broke out in a cold sweat. He hadn't expected there to be Xuan Tie Poison Spikes.

He quickly regained his composure and said, "I was a little careless just now. Everyone step back a bit, let me take a closer look!"

He soon discovered that the bottom of the stone gate was engraved with a nine-square grid of grooves, and three of the positions were empty.

He carefully examined the directions and confirmed that they were indeed the three cardinal directions: east, south, and north.

He quickly spoke up: "Empress Dowager, Wanwan, Prime Minister Min, please go and check if there are any square objects in the east, south, and north directions?"

The three of them divided the tasks and quickly found a small box.

They didn't dare open them and sent them all to Zhan Yan.

Zhan Yan pried open the box with his dagger and saw three square seals inside.

Lin Yiwan asked curiously, "What is this? It even has some runes carved on it?"

Zhan Yan replied, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be the key to open the stone gate. Let's quickly insert these three seals into the slots!"

Lin Yiwan did as instructed. After the seal was placed, she saw the entire slot suddenly sink, and then the stone door slowly opened.

The sudden golden light almost blinded the four of them, and Min Ao immediately helped the Holy Maiden cover her eyes.

Upon seeing this, Lin Yiwan couldn't help but glance at Zhan Yan: "Can't you learn from your mother's arrogant brother?"

The saintess suddenly laughed, pulling her hand away from Min Ao's and saying, "Ayan is still young. When he reaches Ao-ge's age, he will also be thoughtful and considerate!"

Zhan Yan immediately spoke up: "Wanwan, did you hear what Mother said? I'm still young, but her Aoge is already old!"

Min Ao frowned immediately. Why did he want to beat Zhan Yan up?

That brat, he's always targeting him!

Could it be that you have some kind of dissatisfaction with him?

Perhaps sensing his annoyance, Lin Yiwan immediately pushed Zhan Yan into the stone chamber.

All that could be seen were gold ingots piled up randomly everywhere, along with some jade and glass, which were simply exquisite.

Lin Yiwan exclaimed in surprise, "No wonder the houses outside are inlaid with gold. It turns out the island owner is incredibly wealthy! Look at all this gold and silver jewelry, it's more than the combined treasuries of Li Kingdom and Sheng Dynasty!"

The saintess chimed in, "This is probably a treasure vault, but I wonder if there are any other treasures besides gold and silver?"

As they talked, the two continued walking inside.

Soon Lin Yiwan saw a box. She went over and opened it, and found that it contained many picture books.

She curiously opened it, and her expression suddenly became serious and complicated.

Zhan Yan leaned closer and asked, "What did you find?"

Lin Yiwan lowered her voice and said, "This actually shows the steps of a kidney transplant!"

Zhan Yan was shocked: "Kidney transplant? You mean an organ from inside the abdomen?"

Lin Yiwan nodded: "Yes, the booklet explains that all of the body's organs can be replaced. Wherever it's damaged, you just cut it off, and the person can still live!"

Zhan Yan immediately frowned, and said with a solemn expression, "Wanwan, this is too unbelievable. Who exactly is the island lord?"

Lin Yiwan couldn't guess; she was very interested in those picture books.

This was a field she had never been exposed to in her many years of medical practice, and she wanted to learn it.

The saintess and Min Ao continued to explore inside, and soon brought out many seeds.

They exclaimed with delight, "With these seeds, we can take them to the island so that the local people can also taste this fresh and delicious fruit!"

Lin Yiwan didn't want to leave; she planned to copy all those picture books.

Although there are still some things I don't understand now, I can go back to the capital and study them with my maternal grandfather.

This will be a major breakthrough in her medical career.

The group rested on the island for about ten days before preparing to return to Li Kingdom.

The large ship arrived exhausted of supplies, but returned with its hold fully loaded.

They left without taking any valuables, except for some fruit seeds.

The two large ships sailed into the sea and were instantly shrouded in white mist.

Lin Yiwan turned to look at Fairy Island, only to find that she could no longer see it.

She couldn't help but ask in shock, "Mother, we could see Fairy Island just now, why has it disappeared?"

The saintess was also very puzzled, and she immediately ordered the large ship to turn back.

However, even though they hadn't been away from Fairy Island for long, they could no longer find any trace of the island.

The saintess murmured, "How strange. It vanished as if it had never existed. What could have happened?"

Everyone was puzzled and remained silent.

Finally, Min Ao spoke up: "Everyone must keep this experience to themselves, otherwise, many people will risk coming here to search for the island, and they may end up losing their lives here!"
