?Chapter 713: Chapter 313: Lost Soul Island Chapter 713: Chapter 313: Lost Soul Island Facing Changyun Yuanlei’s complaints, Lin Jing not only offered no comfort, but instead looked at him with great interest.
“Since you have returned from Lost Soul Island, does that mean you have the sea charts for Lost Soul Island and the Soul Tomb, right?”
Changyun Yuanlei paused for a moment and then spoke,
“The reason I was able to come back from Lost Soul Island was partly due to luck; I just happened to encounter someone who was returning to Seaheart Island.”
“I also spent some Spirit Stones to help him with a favor, and only then did he agree to bring me back.”
“As for the sea chart to Lost Soul Island, I indeed have it—it was given to me by that person…”
At this point, Changyun Yuanlei looked at Lin Jing and asked,
“Big Brother!”
“Do you want to go to Lost Soul Island and then leave the Sea of Strange through the Soul Tomb?”
Lin Jing nodded, “I’m indeed considering that.”
Upon hearing this, Changyun Yuanlei hurriedly began to dissuade him,
“Big Brother!”
“It’s not that I want to stop you…”
“Although there are rumors that one can leave through the Soul Tomb, it is extremely dangerous.
Recklessly entering could very likely turn you into one of the walking corpses inside.”
“Besides, the rumor that one can escape through the Soul Tomb is just that—a rumor.
Many of the walking corpses in there are people who died trying to break into the Soul Tomb.
You really mustn’t be foolish, Big Brother.”
Changyun Yuanlei’s words of caution were well-intentioned, and Lin Jing was naturally aware of that.
However, what he did not know was that Lin Jing possessed the Five Elements Command Token, which involved matters too significant to reveal recklessly.
Therefore, Lin Jing could not divulge the situation regarding the Five Elements Command Token to Changyun Yuanlei.
Thus, he had no choice but to say,
“I’m just planning to take a trip to Lost Soul Island to scope out the situation.
As for the Soul Tomb, I will investigate thoroughly after I get to Lost Soul Island before deciding what to do next.”
Upon hearing this, Changyun Yuanlei fell silent.

Then,
Lin Jing looked at Changyun Yuanlei and said,
“Let me see that sea chart of yours.”
Changyun Yuanlei nodded, and then pulled out a rolled-up sea chart from his Space Ring and handed it over to Lin Jing.
After receiving the sea chart, Lin Jing unfolded it right away.
This chart was quite comprehensive, detailing most of the islands in the northern part of the Water Element Realm.
Lost Soul Island was depicted at the very top of the sea chart, isolated and alone, at the northernmost edge of the entire Water Element Realm; beyond Lost Soul Island, there were no other islands.
To the north of Lost Soul Island was the marked Soul Tomb.
After examining the map, Lin Jing said to Changyun Yuanlei,
“Let’s go!”
Changyun Yuanlei glanced at the third floor above then asked Lin Jing,
“Big Brother, don’t you want to go upstairs and look around?”
Lin Jing nodded and replied,
“My purpose here was to buy a sea chart to find a way out.
Since you’ve already told me, and I also have this sea chart, naturally there’s no need to go up there anymore.”
Upon hearing this, Changyun Yuanlei said nothing more but nodded,
“Alright then!”
After that, he left Haiming Tower together with Lin Jing.
The reason Lin Jing was in such a hurry to leave was actually due to a warning from the Yan Family’s ancestor.
The Yan Family’s ancestor had told him to leave this place as soon as possible, presumably because it wasn’t very safe here.
…
On the way out, Changyun Yuanlei was sullen the entire time.
It wasn’t until after the two of them had left Fortune Immortal City that Lin Jing asked Changyun Yuanlei,
“What’s the matter with you?”
Changyun Yuanlei sighed and said,
“I originally thought you, Big Brother, would stay for a while longer.
I didn’t expect you to leave so soon.”
After Changyun Yuanlei finished speaking, Lin Jing looked at him and then said directly,
“Why don’t you come with me?”
Lin Jing’s words took Changyun Yuanlei by surprise, and he pointed to himself in astonishment,
“Ah?”
“Me?”
Lin Jing nodded,
“Yes, you come with me for a trip to Lost Soul Island.”
“After all, we’re just going to check things out, and if it’s not feasible, we can still come back.”
Lin Jing had his own reasons for inviting Changyun Yuanlei.
Initially, Lin Jing didn’t think he would leave in such a hurry.
He had wanted to learn more about the Lin Family from Changyun Yuanlei, but the turn of events forced Lin Jing to leave sooner than expected.
If he left like this, he wouldn’t be able to learn any news about the Lin Family.
So,
Lin Jing thought that it might be better to have Changyun Yuanlei accompany him to Lost Soul Island.
As for Changyun Yuanlei’s safety after reaching Lost Soul Island, with Lin Jing there, there was naturally no need to worry.
Moreover, even if Lin Jing truly planned to leave, he would make arrangements for him beforehand.
…
After hearing the invitation, Changyun Yuanlei did not immediately accept, but instead became pensive…
Seeing Changyun Yuanlei hesitate, Lin Jing then added,
“What’s wrong?
“Do you have any attachments left on Fortune Island?”
“If that is the case, I won’t insist.”
Changyun Yuanlei scratched his head, seeming somewhat embarrassed,
“It seems…”
“I don’t really have any attachments here on Fortune Island.”
Then, Changyun Yuanlei looked at Lin Jing with a determined gaze as if he had made up his mind, and said,
“Alright…
“Big Brother, I’ll accompany you to Lost Soul Island.”
…
…
Lin Jing didn’t dawdle.
After resting for the night, he set off with Changyun Yuanlei just past noon the following day.
As they left, passing through Fang Market, they heard rumors of cultivators from Seaheart Island having arrived, apparently in pursuit of someone.
Lin Jing didn’t know whether the cultivators from Seaheart Island had come in search of the Yan Family’s ancestor, but he knew he had to leave as quickly as possible.
Then,
Without further delay, Lin Jing took Changyun Yuanlei and left Fortune Island.
