I think my luck is turning around.

At this moment, An Ge suppressed her inner fear and looked at Ji Xia. She didn't know why he was saying this, but An Ge was determined to purify Nange Island.

"Ji Xia, how do you feel about what you're talking about?"

An Ge's problem was within Ji Xia's expectations. As someone who had experienced it firsthand, he knew all too well what it was like inside. It looked prosperous and desirable, but upon closer inspection, it couldn't withstand any scrutiny.

What's the most bustling place you've ever seen?

What does this question mean? An Ge didn't understand, but she still gave her answer: the most prosperous cities are naturally the first-tier cities. An Ge casually named two places.

Ji Xia simply nodded. It was indeed a bustling place, a place that some people longed for. However, compared to that, Nangka Island was a more prosperous and peaceful place than those cities.

There is no pressure there, no pressure of life, no oppression of work, no repression of surviving for tomorrow.

Ji Xia was originally content with this kind of life, but after living there for a while and thinking about it carefully, she discovered that many things were not right!

"A place where you can survive without a job, and live without labor, seems unreal, but upon closer inspection, it's terrifying."

Ji Xia's words didn't frighten An Ge, but the underlying interests seemed a bit off.

Ji Xia continued.

"In prosperous places, there are no poultry or livestock raised, but there is an inexhaustible supply of chicken, duck, fish, and meat. There are no farmlands to cultivate, but there is an endless supply of vegetables, rice, and flour. There are no vast forests, but there are pavilions and towers that are constantly being built."

Where these supplies came from is unknown, but I do know that once you leave the bustling area, you will see abandoned farmland, dried-up ponds, and over-logged forests.

Thinking about it this way, I felt even more uneasy. I continued to walk deeper into the pit, and I saw a pit that could never be filled. I saw many people, many lifeless people.

I've met some of them, and I haven't met others, but they all look the same: emaciated.

The people I've met, their former appearances are etched in my mind—once healthy, plump, now all the same in that pit: shriveled corpses.

Ji Xia had already closed his eyes. He didn't want to talk anymore. He was thinking about that scene, and what he saw was simply indescribable!

An Ge didn't quite understand because she had never seen it before and therefore couldn't empathize with it. All she felt for Ji Xia was sympathy.

Ji Xia paused for a moment, then continued, "I left that place in a panic; I dared not linger there."

I continued walking inside, and it felt like I was back in a bustling area. But this time I was clear-headed; I didn't go back, but instead went to a new place.

I came across a new pit, another one that was never full. There were no people inside, no corpses, only red water.

The smell was overwhelming; you could tell it was blood. The blood must have come from the dried-up corpses. I heard someone call my name from behind. I turned around and saw the people who should have been lying in the pit. Terrified, I kept running.

Then he ran to the cliff face, saw there was no way out, and jumped off.

An Ge didn't understand, but putting herself in Ji Xia's special position at this time, she figured it out. After all, he hadn't died, and being captured was worse than dying.

With this jump, Ji Xia left Nangge Island. He floated in the sea, looking at the island. It didn't seem strange, but he felt a bit empty, which was quite eerie.

After Ji Xia finished speaking, she sighed, recalling how terrifying those two pits were. An Ge put the pistol back into her spatial bag. She was actually alright; she didn't understand what Ji Xia meant by telling her this, but she truly had a stronger determination to purify that place.

Perhaps Ji Xia's goal was to make An Ge more certain of her thoughts, or even to bring An Ge into her plans, even though Nan Ge Island was not a benevolent place.

Ji Xia looked at Ji Xixi at the door and gestured for her to close it. Once the door was closed, all sounds outside ceased. This room was absolutely safe!

"What's your plan?"

Ji Xia's question made An Ge feel somewhat uneasy. How did he know that she had a plan? How did he guess it?

"my plan?"

An Ge looked at the tightly closed door and Ji Xixi standing outside. She knew that Ji Xia had closed the door for the sake of secrecy. An Ge stopped hiding it and revealed her plan.

"As you all know, that place is a mess. I found a way to cleanse and purify it in the script, so I'll purify it."

But looking at your plans now, mine seems like a lower-level version.

Your plan covers more issues across the entire island…

Before An Ge could finish speaking, Ji Xia interrupted her, stating his position directly.

“We don’t want to purify Nangkak Island, we want to make Nangkak Island disappear.”

Didn't your script tell you the true purpose of Nange Island? The two pits there are used for cultivation; it's a magical artifact used to absorb the cultivation power of others.

The entire Nangge Island was originally a place where ancient demon gods cultivated. In order to become more powerful, the ancient demon god Jing captured many cultivators and threw them into pits to absorb their cultivation.

Later, it was directly suppressed in the deepest part of the East Sea by an ancient god, but that was a very long time ago. That ancient god has been quietly staying in the deepest part of the East Sea for a long time, without making any moves.

This gave some people an opportunity to transform Nange Island into a new world, but the essence remained the same: cannibalism.

An Ge also had an "aha!" moment after hearing this story. Mu An, because of her authority, never told her these things; she only learned them from Ji Xia.

So the original owner of this place was Jing, not the current person. So how did the current owner find Nangkaku Island?

An Ge stood there quietly, lost in thought. Her own thoughts were being led astray again, and she now completely supported Ji Xia's ideas.

"So, are our goals the same now?"

As Ji Xixi spoke, An Ge looked over. It seemed that Ji Xixi was now considering joining the plan, but once on the island, her ability to even protect herself was limited.

“If you join, Lin Jingqing will join as well, and our chances of winning will increase.”

Ji Xia didn't say anything, nor did he intend to hide anything from An Ge, so he didn't care what Ji Xixi said.
