The Deadly Hitwoman: The Heiress's Special Abilities

Chapter 1071: Chapter 1071: Shuiqi Island

Ning Shiqi deliberated for a long time, and ultimately determined that the shortest route required passing through three more islands to reach their destination, Minghan Island. As for the total time needed, it would depend on how long they stayed on each island.

However, this was already the shortest route. No matter how they maneuvered, it was impossible to go directly to Minghan Island unless they continued to wait on Xia Gui Island until the two islands happened to move into adjacent positions, and as Xia Wu mentioned, that might take at least one or two years.

So rather than waiting here for so long, it would be better to take a detour. Maybe if they’re lucky, they might find Yun Zidu before reaching Minghan Island?

Thus, after confirming the route and discussing it, they decided on the departure time.

The next destination was Shuiqi Island.

Han Jing asked Xia Wu, ”Have you been to Shuiqi Island?”

Xia Wu shook her head, ”No, but I’ve heard that Shuiqi Island is a beautiful place, ranking third among the Thirty-two Islands of the Human Domain, ahead of Xia Gui Island. The wife of Shuiqi Island’s Island Master, Shui Jingmo, is Feng Peining, sister to the Island Master of Phoenix Island. Shuiqi Island is most renowned for its picturesque scenery, said to be in no way inferior to that of the Upper Three Realms.”

Han Jing’s eyes almost fell out, incredulously saying, ”Are you talking about Phoenix Island of the Divine Domain? This... is this appropriate?”

Xia Wu explained, ”Indeed, this matter was quite sensational, known throughout the Futu Realm. However, Shui Jingmo is truly gentle like water, with looks as picturesque as a painting. Feng Peining fell in love at first sight and refused to marry anyone else. Being the youngest sister of Feng Island Master, the Feng Family’s power in the Futu Realm is second only to Sky Extreme Island, so she didn’t need to marry for alliance. Ultimately, Feng Peining married Shui Jingmo as she wished, with their love envied by many. Naturally, no one else had anything to say.”

”Then... what about Feng Peining’s strength? Has she reached the Divine Level?” This was Han Jing’s concern—what if they accidentally offended her? That would be trouble!

Xia Wu nodded, ”Yes, Feng Peining’s strength has reached the first rank of Divine Level. Moreover, throughout the Futu Realm, apart from Sky Extreme Island, the most powerful person I know is the youngest daughter of the Phoenix Island’s Island Master, who is also Feng Peining’s niece, reaching the seventh rank of the Divine Level; she is a true genius. Unfortunately, I haven’t met her.”

Han Jing said with a bitter face, ”I hope everything goes smoothly as we pass by Shuiqi Island!”

”Don’t worry, as long as we don’t have any conflicts with them and merely pass through, it shouldn’t attract attention.” Xia Wu was merely comforting Han Jing, as she also felt uncertain. After all, Shuiqi Island truly is the most unique among the Thirty-two Islands of the Human Domain. It’s unavoidable; after all, its Island Master is the brother-in-law of the Phoenix Island’s Island Master in the Divine Domain!

”Then what about the upcoming Zhu Guan Island and Yunzhu Island? They shouldn’t have anything special, right?” Han Jing asked.

”Zhu Guan Island indeed has nothing special, ranking in the last ten of the Thirty-two Islands. Although Yunzhu Island isn’t very highly ranked, it has the support of Yunwu Island from the Immortal Realm, but it’s manageable. So the most critical part remains the visit to Shuiqi Island. As long as we pass smoothly through Shuiqi Island, we should reach Minghan Island soon.”

Han Jing nodded, ”That’s good, let’s hope for some good luck!”
