81: The arrangement of the great elder is 50-50 with Lan Kun!

In the direction of the capital, inside the Grand Elder's office.

At this moment, the Grand Elder was sitting in his seat, and on his desk lay a fiery red Talent Spiritual Fruit.

Upon hearing the news, the other Elders all put down their work and rushed over.

When they saw the Talent Spiritual Fruit on the Grand Elder's desk, almost all the Elders' faces lit up with happy smiles.

This was the second Spiritual Fruit since the one Lan Kun ate, which allowed him to control lightning-attributed abilities!

The Grand Elder was also very excited when he saw this Talent Spiritual Fruit.

This time, to obtain this Talent Spiritual Fruit and avoid any accidents, almost all the animals on the mountain outside Jia City that were fighting over this Talent Spiritual Fruit were killed!

Among them, there were quite a few protected animals.

However, compared to the value of this Talent Spiritual Fruit, those were no longer important!

Then, the Grand Elder looked up at one of the Elders and asked, "Have the candidates been arranged?"

To maximize the effect of this Talent Spiritual Fruit, they naturally used the same method as when they selected Lan Kun.

They would choose the most excellent and suitable candidate!

The Elder immediately nodded and smiled, "He was selected overnight last night. His name is Zhao He!"

"This Zhao He, during the last selection, was allowed to take leave and go home because of an urgent family matter, so it wasn't his turn!"

"If he were to face Lan Kun, the outcome would truly be about fifty-fifty."

"His family background is also very clean; he is a very suitable candidate! He was picked up from the military region early this morning and is currently awaiting further arrangements."

Hearing the Elder's words, the Grand Elder's eyebrows raised slightly, indicating that this Zhao He was also quite good.

Then he smiled and said, "Alright, arrange for Zhao He to go to the same location where Lan Kun ate the fruit last time."

"This time, let Zhao He also eat the Talent Spiritual Fruit there, and by the way, test his strength."

The Elder nodded upon hearing this and then began to make arrangements for the matter.

Only after he had finished his arrangements did the Grand Elder speak again.

He looked at the Elders with a smile and said, "Let's go, shall we witness it together?"

Upon hearing this, the Elders also smiled.

Although they were Elders, they were quite interested in witnessing the birth of a superpower.

What's more, this was something that would increase the strength of Xia Guo, so they naturally wanted to witness it with their own eyes!

Thus, the Elders, led by the Grand Elder, walked out of the office together...

.........

On the other side, on the sea surface in the direction of the East Sea, Yang Zheng stood alone on the ship's deck, looking at a small island getting closer and closer to his front right, with a lonely lighthouse standing tall on the island.

Just as Yang Zheng was still lost in thought, his son's voice suddenly came from beside him.

"Dad, where are we now?"

Hearing his son's voice, Yang Zheng came back to his senses, then turned his head to look at his son.

Pointing to the small island to his front right, he smiled and said, "We just reached Sihuan Island. It's about half an hour's journey to our small island."

As the large ship got closer to Sihuan Island, the two of them also saw a middle-aged man seemingly patrolling the island's coastline; he was the lighthouse keeper of Sihuan Island.

Over the past ten-odd years, every time Yang Zheng's ship passed by here, he had seen this man on the island countless times, watching him gradually change from a youthful appearance to his current look.

Speaking of which, he quite admired this lighthouse keeper of Sihuan Island; at least, the lighthouse keepers he knew in several other places generally couldn't last this long.

They all eventually couldn't endure the loneliness and solitude and chose to leave, only this lighthouse keeper had steadfastly remained in this position for over a decade.

Yang Zheng didn't know his name, but that didn't stop him from admiring this man.

At this moment, Mao Yushi, who was patrolling the coast of Sihuan Island, also noticed the large ship approaching from the sea.

So he paused slightly and looked over.

After confirming that it was a ship from his own country, he no longer paid attention and continued his island patrol mission...

On the deck of the large ship, the son finally couldn't help but ask Yang Zheng, his heart full of questions.

He asked, "Dad, what exactly is the purpose of taking us to that island?"

Hearing his son ask this question, Yang Zheng's face also broke into a smile, his posture gradually straightened, and he looked in the direction of their destination, smiling, "To find some things your grandfather left behind!"

"Grandfather?"

The young man was stunned for a moment, but quickly understood, and his face immediately broke into an excited smile.

"Dad, did you decipher the blueprint Grandfather left for you?"

Yang Zheng nodded, "Of course!"

Saying that, Yang Zheng took out the blueprint from his embrace and handed it to his son.

As his son opened the blueprint, Yang Zheng confidently said, "Your grandfather's experiences were extraordinary, and the things he left behind will definitely exceed your imagination. When you see them, don't be too surprised!"

The young man heard his father's words and coincidentally spread out the blueprint in his hand.

It was still that very abstract-looking pattern; he didn't even know if he was holding it the right way up.

He couldn't understand the blueprint in his hand at all, nor did he know how his father had deciphered it.

Especially when he heard Yang Zheng's words, the young man's confusion grew even deeper.

Grandfather's experiences were extraordinary? And they would exceed my imagination?

How could that be!

In Grandfather's generation, many things were already outdated. The only thing he could possibly leave for his father was wealth!

Such as gold, jewelry, and antiques.

Regarding this, the young man felt a bit disdainful of Yang Zheng's words.

However, he then thought that if Grandfather had left a large sum of gold, jewelry, and antiques.

With Grandfather's abilities, he couldn't have left just a little; it must be a very large number!

When converted into cash, it would be a huge cash flow!

It wouldn't be too much for him to ask for some pocket money then, would it?

As soon as he thought of this, the young man immediately became somewhat expectant and also wanted to see what Grandfather had left for Dad.

At the same time, the young man did not forget to tell his mother the good news, so that the whole family could be happy together.

The three of them even began to discuss whether to get a cruise ship and go on a sea trip after they got the things Grandfather left behind.

Yang Zheng was also very happy at this moment.

He knew that among the things his father left him, there would definitely be a huge fortune, but what he looked forward to more was not the gold, silver, jewels, and antiques.

What he looked forward to more were naturally those things from the mysterious side!

It's just that currently, the closer they got to their destination, the more anxious Yang Zheng felt. He didn't know if there were such things among what his old man left him...

He thought a lot, a lot.

If his old man had possessed those things, he probably would have used them already, and wouldn't have died prematurely from illness.

But if not...

Yang Zheng shook his head, casting the thought aside.

He decided to go and see first...
