" I swear, once I go back... I will make sure that this kid will suffer heavily. Lying and coming to this God-forsaken place without telling anyone, he is lucky that I am with him or else who knows!" Ma Jiu grumbled as she directed the motorboat towards the island while following the one which was ahead of her. 

Su Qian also had the same thoughts, she was only holding herself back from hitting Su Qingzhao because she was worried that he will make a scene in front of everyone and refuse to listen to her which was why she did not say anything to him but inwardly she was dissatisfied with Su Qingzhao as well, now she only hoped of dragging this stupid boy back to the city and give him a good lesson! 

Behind her, Yang Yiling and Rong Si did not speak instead they simply looked at the island with wary expressions and then Su Qian heard Yang Yiling say, " This place doe…doesn\'t it look weird. I mean—— it sort of looks…. I don\'t know how to phrase this,"

" Evil. It looks evil," Rong Si joined her hands together as if she was praying and then muttered, " Dear Lord, please protect us!" 

She did not have a good feeling towards this island but she could not leave her friends behind either which was why she could only follow them even if this place looked dangerous. 

While Su Qian and the rest were praying for their safety and a safe trip, Su Qingzhao and the rest were zooming past the clear water with a smile on their faces. 

" Hahaha! This is so cool! It feels like I am flying!" Su Qingzhao laughed as he drove the motorboat, he looked at the island and ignored the sudden chill which was climbing on his spine and thought that it was nothing but the sudden drop in temperature since they were getting close to the island and nothing else. 

"That\'s right! It is so much fun!" Luo Shan agreed and asked Su Qingzhao to increase the speed of the motorboat such that they will be able to get to the island as quickly as possible. 

Qin Lu and Zou Shen also nodded and agreed with Luo Shan, they asked Su Qingzhao to increase the speed while looking at Huo Lan who was sitting on the motorboat with them. They wanted to show off just how brave and thrill-seeking they were since Huo Lan liked boys who were daring. 

While Luo Shan was urging Su Qingzhao to increase the speed of the motorboat, his bag which was hanging around his neck by a sling was dropping in the surface of the water. Huo Lan of course noticed this but she did not say anything to warn Luo Shan, in fact, she wanted to see whether or not that thing will be able to attack Luo Shan here or not, if so then it would mean that her plan was excellent and without a flaw. 

" Come on young master Su, increase the speed of the boat! Are you afraid of your aunt?  Is that why you are not increasing the speed?" Luo Shan teased as he boldly laughed along with Qin Lu and Zou Shen, his hand placed on Su Qingzhao\'s shoulder.

When Su Qingzhao heard Lu Shan teasing him, his face flushed red and he increased the speed of the motorboat at once which caused Luo Shan to yelp in surprise.

" Haha, who is scared now!" Su Qingzhao taunted the man behind him who rolled his eyes and said, " Oh come on I was just surprised!" 

While the three young men were teasing and taunting each other with Zou Shen speaking to Huo Lan, a shadow which seemed to be following their boat for quite some time appeared closer as it grew bigger and bigger. 

The thing which was inside swam closer to the bag which was slung around Luo Shan\'s neck and then reached out its bony finger to catch it but as soon as the thing touched the bag and pulled it back… the talisman inside Su Qingzhao \'s packed glowed and then shot a white light which was so brilliantly white that no one was able to catch it in the sunlight which seemed to be blinding. 

The white lights struck the hand which was reaching for the bag causing it to swim back inside the water without making a noise. 

But even so, Luo Shan who was almost dragged into the water felt something pull his bag and turned to look at the black shadow which was swimming away. 

" Eh?" He muttered as he looked at the big shadow but then his gaze fell on his bag which was floating in the water and he yelped in surprise again,  " Oh no, why did no one tell me that my bag was in the water?" He sullenly pulled the sling bag out of the water\'s surface and looked at the dripping fabric with a frown on his lips as he mused, " Now all my snacks must have been ruined!" 

" This is why I asked you to bring a backpack idiot!" 

" Who is the idiot? Can\'t you see that backpack of yours is taking up such a huge space?" 

" Why you…" 

While the two men quibbled, Huo Lan looked at Luo Shan and frowned, \'he is fine? How?\'
