Witch, I'm really not the Deep Sea Ancient God!

Chen Qi steered the Nearshore Dominator back from Scorched Earth Town.

"Huff..."

Chen Qi gasped heavily as his body underwent the effects of the "Sage's Medicine," growing hotter and hotter.

Fen stood in the center of the island, gazing at the ground beneath her feet for a long time without shifting her eyes.

Bree and the Water Elf, having repaired the ship, were resting in a corner of a ramshackle wooden hut in the middle of the island.

Soon, he noticed the indentation in Chen Qi's chest and the blood-red wound on his shoulder.

"Were you pursued?"

"Yes, I encountered some troublesome matters."

Chen Qi tossed an apple pie from his backpack card to Bree.

"Fen..."

Chen Qi said to Fen.

"I'm thinking about our future plans..."

Fen closed her eyes, speaking somewhat mysteriously.

"There's delicious dessert!"

Chen Qi said cheerfully.

Fen turned her head subconsciously, approached him calmly, and took an apple pie:

"Thinking requires sugar."

An excuse of a glutton... Chen Qi thought to himself with a mental chuckle.

Delicious! Fen, who hadn't had sweets in a long time, took the apple pie and nibbled on it bit by bit.

Immediately after, she quickly shifted her gaze to the injuries on Chen Qi.

Chen Qi shared the encounter with the Third Rank Hunters in Scorched Earth Town.

"Being hunted by six top-notch experts..."

Bree crossed his arms, feeling a bone-chilling cold:

"Qi, you should seek some protection, either from the Golden Flower Bird Kingdom's shelter or from our Ice Demon Pirate Group's protection. Sadly, most of the time, our captain is off on adventures..."

"Six Third Rank Hunters of eminent life force..."

Bree sighed deeply, trying to put himself in Chen Qi's shoes and finding no possibility of escape except for using the "Captain Summoning Technique."

Chen Qi said quietly:

"Yes, especially Supernova An, she is stronger than I remembered." Experience exclusive tales on My Virtual Library Empire

An, known as 'An Aotian,' isn't so named without reason, aside from various face-slap plots and adventures, she also possesses certain special qualities that allow her to gain profound insights and reach a whole new realm in the face of near defeat!

Chen Qi now had the confidence to beat An, provided it was a fair duel with full intelligence.

Fen, however, displayed a worried expression, asking doubtfully:

"How did they find us? Did they use some kind of special relic?"

"Yes, a mirror associated with the Lamp Phase..."

Chen Qi propped his chin in his hand.

Atop the vast sea, his Deep Sea Affinity sensed something special emanating from Loren—a mirror with the ability to track.

"A mirror associated with the Lamp Phase..."

Fen looked puzzled.

"???"

Chen Qi too showed a puzzled expression, as Fen seemed to know the origin of this relic.

Fen explained:

"It seems one of the Witch Relics of the Lamp has been made into a mirror."

Witch Relics... Chen Qi inquired further:

"Are you sure?"

Fen shook her head, ultimately dismissing her own thought:

"It's unlikely, the Witch Relic of the Lamp Phase is in the hands of a top-tier Extraordinary Organization. My teacher once offered a large amount of extraordinary materials as a reward to borrow this relic, but in the end, the organization refused..."

Given her teacher's status, she was unable to get the Witch of the Lamp's relic, let alone those Third Rank Hunters.

"This isn't necessarily the case..."

Chen Qi mused silently.

Above the Witch Sea, there's an incredibly powerful but extremely chaotic Extraordinary Organization known as the White Dove Newspaper.

A troubled little blue flower appeared above Fen's head as she worried:

"If it truly is a Witch Relic, then even buying an anti-divination tool, or your inspiration being stronger than theirs, might not be enough to evade tracking."

"..."

Chen Qi's expression grew serious, and he clenched his teeth lightly.

If they really held that relic, his predicament was far more troublesome than he imagined.

I must head for the Witch Sea as soon as possible, seize the occupation card of the Deep Sea Hunter, and then advance to become a legend... Chen Qi resolved internally.

However, his preparations were currently inadequate.

Fen's potion was not yet complete, and besides, he was unable to construct a sufficiently powerful ship in a short period of time.

The most important thing was, even if all preparations were complete, for him and Fen to head to the Mist Sea, it was still far too dangerous.

Unfortunately, they currently couldn't seek the help of the Ice Demon Pirate Group.

But regardless, they had to move forward.

They needed to speed up, to advance to legend as soon as possible... Chen Qi pulled out the sea map of the Ice Demon Pirate Group and asked,

"Fen, when will your potion be complete? What raw materials do you still need?"

To venture into the Mist Sea, a large quantity of Sage's Medicine was essential, and even with the Lamp Moon Sea Dragon Fruit, collecting other herbs would still require time.

But there was no time to delay under the current circumstances, they needed to gather the herbs in the fastest, quickest way possible.

Fen's lips curled up slightly as she sipped the tea handed to her by Water Elf No.2,

"As for acquiring the herbs, I've already thought of a plan."

She extended her index finger and placed it on the sea map, at the trading spot frequently visited by people from the Golden Flower Bird Kingdom, the Hundred Flowers Merchant Ship.

On the Hundred Flowers Merchant Ship, rare herbs were traded, and at the same time, in this place, there were as many as twenty Third Rank Transcendents stationed.

Also, the giant beasts 'Mountain Beasts' domesticated by the Golden Flower Bird Kingdom sheltered the entire Domain.

Fen stood up, made a swinging motion with a magic wand, and said,

"This action is my plan!"

The action of hitting someone on the back of the head was really practiced... Chen Qi and Bree simultaneously showed expressions of shock,

"Witch, you're planning to rob the Hundred Flowers Merchant Ship?"

If they wanted to gather a large amount of materials in the short term.

Robbery was indeed a good idea, and besides, robbing the Hundred Flowers Merchant Ship possessed some danger for them, but it was not impossible... Chen Qi silently pondered.

However, they had already been firmly surrounded by the Black Whale Group and the Sea God Pirate Group.

If this continued, wouldn't they be making enemies of the whole world?

Bree added,

"Of late, due to the abundant resources of the Crack Tide, the Golden Flower Bird Kingdom dispatched quite a few mysterious Transcendents to the Witch Sea. If we rob the Kingdom's ships, it's extremely dangerous..."

Fen looked up and snorted coldly,

"Robbery?"

"You actually think I, the Witch, would come up with such a boring plan."

"!!??"

Chen Qi fell into thought.

Could it be that Fen had a more secretive plan, possibly through a method of 'threatening'?

Bree took a deep breath as he recalled the legend of the Flower Witch. It was said that the Flower Witch, to obtain a herb from a Saint, implanted seeds in his wife and daughter.

The wife and daughter, who had been planted with seeds, completely became the playthings of the Flower Witch.

It was said that the Saint, upon seeing his wife and daughter played with by the Flower Witch, plunged into an indescribeable frenzy.

However, to accomplish these manipulations, the difficulty was very high...

"Ignorant, why would I use something as uninteresting and joyless as robbery."

"Is that all you can think of?"

Fen shook her head, clearly disappointed with the two of them.

Then, she stood up, picked up her magic wand, and gently tapped the soil beneath her.

"My plan, the Witch's plan!"

"Is farming!"

Afterwards, she held the magic wand like a hoe, making the motion of tilling the earth.

Fen's hoeing motion was exceptionally standard, revealing that she was a professional master of farming.

"Farming..."

Chen Qi blinked, momentarily shocked by Fen's idea.

No, it was her arrogant expression that threw me off, something I should have thought of earlier... Chen Qi criticized himself internally.

Truly worthy of someone who will become the Vegetable Witch!

Fen rubbed her nose, proudly stating,

"My Life Technique, besides being able to absorb the Life Energy of plants, can also accelerate the growth of plants."

"Of course, this growth can't be applied to high-rank herbs, but with the Lamp Moon Sea Dragon Fruit, even without high-rank herbs, I can create Wise-Level potions."

"And to acquire these herbs, all we need are seeds and a piece of fertile land. Under the effect of my Life Technique, in just ten nights, these seeds will become rare medicinal herbs."

She took out a green bottle filled with Life Essence and shook it.

"I've inherited the knowledge of the Flower Witch and have quite some insights into farming."

"Plus, with the brewing of the herbs, as long as we get the seeds, these manipulations will only need a month's time."

A month to complete all these preparations... Chen Qi couldn't help but marvel at Fen's speed.

Having finished explaining the series of manipulations, Fen walked over, patted Chen Qi on the shoulder twice,

"Once the potion is brewed, we'll head to the Mist Sea to look for the Deep Sea Hunter Occupation Card!"

Afterward, she took the magic wand and, with the breeze blowing, handed Chen Qi a freshly made bottle of Sage's Medicine, unable to suppress a triumphant smile,

"Qi, for your advancement, I, the Witch, will assist you!"
