Ji Chen nodded slightly. “That’s quite apt.”

The other human leader cautiously asked, “Forgive me for being presumptuous, but may I inquire, sir, what brings you to Hometown Island?

There are scarce resources and treasures here, and the crops can barely sustain us, so…”

“I’m here for the Ocean God’s Shrine.”

The human leader’s face lit up with understanding, and he breathed a sigh of relief, saying, “I see, the Ocean God’s Shrine lies about thirty miles to the east of Hometown Island, underwater. You can go straight there.”

During this time, all the ocean lords of the Sea of Death were drawn by that artifact, so it’s not surprising that they were attracted here, but it’s the first time so many armies have mistakenly entered.

Out of curiosity, someone asked, “Sir, I don’t think I’ve ever heard your name mentioned in the Sea of Death…”

“I came here voluntarily from the outside.” Ji Chen said lightly.

The humans, elves, and dwarves present were all stunned.

What a joke. Once you come to the Sea of Death, you can’t leave, and they’ve never heard of anyone willingly coming here in so many years.

Ji Chen didn’t explain much, just said meaningfully, “If there was a chance for you to leave here, what price would you be willing to pay?”

The human leader hesitated for a moment and said without hesitation, “Besides my life and freedom, everything else can be offered as a price.”

The elf leader looked at Ji Chen with suspicion and hesitation and said, “I’m willing to give up everything I have, just to leave this cursed place.”

Ji Chen smiled and didn’t say anything more, turning around and returning to the back of the giant turtle, which slowly retreated into the sea and left.

Not far behind the humans and elves, an old and a young dwarf stood on a rock, watching the giant turtle gradually disappear from sight.

“Grandpa Duke,” the young dwarf suddenly raised his head, his eyes shining with innocence, “If we had such a big turtle, could we leave here? What is the world outside like?”

The scruffy old dwarf with white whiskers smiled kindly, “Perhaps, but Grandpa has been here for half a lifetime and doesn’t know what the outside world has become.”

Little Gavin pouted, his face full of curiosity, “I heard those pointy-eared and human beings say that the outside world has a blue sky, white clouds, a bright sun, and mountains covered with flowers and forests full of birds. I really want to see it with my own eyes!”

Old Duke looked at the eyes full of longing of little Gavin, and for a moment, he couldn’t find the words to say. He also longed for that azure sky.

But he couldn’t be sure if those enemies outside were still looking for him.

And even if the enemies were no longer seeking him, what could he do? His people had already been killed by that infernal demon, and even if he were to leave, he would only be alone.

Rather than continue to suffer, it would be better to stay here until his life ends.

But the only thing he couldn’t bear was what would happen to little Gavin after he died?

He didn’t think those humans and elves would kindly raise a little dwarf!

Old Duke’s thoughts collided in his mind, and his eyes gradually showed a hint of confusion.

As if sensing his emotions, little Gavin tightly held Old Duke’s rough but powerful hand, his eyes earnestly serious.

“Grandpa Duke, Gavin will always be with you.”

Old Duke’s heart trembled fiercely, he forced out a smile and held little Gavin’s small hand with his own, the confusion in his eyes gradually fading, replaced by determination.

“Grandpa will always be with you, and will definitely let you see the blue sky and those white clouds..”
