Chapter 1257 Preparing to Set Off

Chen Fan chatted with Xia Bingqing for a while.

They exchanged a few words.

"Enough with the nonsense!" Xia Bingqing said impatiently, spitting again, "Finish up what you're doing and get back here!"

"If I don't come back, what do you think I'll do to you!"

"Alright, alright..." Chen Fan stopped his teasing and listened to Xia Bingqing.

"That's more like it!" Xia Bingqing snorted proudly.

Chen Fan just smiled.

He didn't say anything more.

After a while, the call ended!

At this very moment, his expression turned serious.

He gazed intently out the window.

His eyes were deep.

Kunlong Island, here I come…

He felt a touch of helplessness thinking about it!

If he didn't make it back, what about Xia Bingqing…

Alas, he sighed and shook his head. Never mind, he wouldn't think about it anymore!

Before long, An Ye arrived and knocked on the door…

"Boss, everything is ready!"

"Do you want to see?"

Chen Fan paused for a moment, breaking his train of thought, "Yes… let's go take a look!"

"Alright!"

Immediately, they drove to a private pier in Zhonghai.

An Ye had prepared a luxurious cruise ship here.

Chen Fan, led by An Ye, entered the ship. An Ye pressed a switch, and moments later, metal plates rose on both sides.

A dense array of firearms appeared, turning the space into an arsenal!

Chen Fan was surprised, "You've prepared so much!"

An Ye replied, "The more we prepare, the more security we have!"

Chen Fan thought it made sense and nodded, "Yes… that's true…"

"Alright, that's it!"

"Yes!"

An Ye responded and then asked, "Boss, do you want me to bring everyone from the An Ye organization?"

Chen Fan casually replied, "No need. There might be some danger, and it's not necessary to put ordinary people at risk!"

An Ye was moved, thinking how great his boss was. He nodded, "Alright, I understand!"

"Yes, yes!"

"You may go!"

"I'll stay here alone for a while!" Chen Fan said.

An Ye heard this, pondered for a moment, and then left without saying another word.

Soon, Chen Fan was the only one on the vast cruise ship.

He was alone.

Lying on the deck.

Gazing at the azure sky…

It was as if all his thoughts were carried away by the sky at that moment.

"Old man, I hope you're still here!"

Chen Fan muttered.

Gradually, he drifted off to sleep.

Soon, it was the next day.

Today was also the day to set sail. Chen Fan asked An Ye to notify the sect leaders of the Thirty-Six Sects. About an hour later, the leaders of the Thirty-Six Sects slowly appeared.

These individuals were all figures of influence and naturally reluctant to be controlled. Therefore, they were completely indifferent to Chen Fan's words.

Most of the time, they simply ignored him.

Each of them seemed to be saying, "You want to command us? Dream on!"

Of course, Chen Fan noticed some subtle signs, but he didn't pay much attention, as this trip to Kunlong Island was a collaboration in the first place!

An Ye came to Chen Fan's side and whispered, "Boss, these people seem to be putting on a united front, but their hearts are not in it!"

"And it looks like they don't want to listen to you at all!"

Chen Fan had noticed this as soon as they boarded, but he didn't address it. "Don't bother with them. These old fellows are all calculating, and who knows what they're thinking!"

"Yes… that's true…"
