Chapter 106
Sarah Heim’s thoughts were extremely messy and vague . There was no way to put them into a complete sentence . It was like a person with a talking disability . Its words were unclear and stammering . Sui Xiong had put a little bit of effort into understanding every word .
This sea monster from the legend seemed not to have met any mighty existence in which it was able to communicate with for a very long time . It talked a lot all at once . Pell-mell, disordered, long-winded, it sounded like a boring, chatty old person—-not to mention an old person with Alzheimer’s .
Talking with it was not pleasant, but Sui Xiong was still patient, slowly gossiping with it . Under his suggestion, Sarah Heim retrieved its power . Therefore, the original stormy sea with black-clouded sky suddenly became calm and clear as if everything was just a delusion a moment ago .
The captain was happy, hurriedly ordering the sailors to raise the sail, using up a magic scroll to create a strong wind to push the boat faster, like running for their lives out of Hell Bay .
Haiz, it was not like “running for life”, but it was basically running for life . . . .
While under the calm sea, Sui Xiong and Sarah Heim were still gossiping—— Sarah Heim did most of the talking, Sui Xiong was only in charge of listening and asking questions .
It was really hard to meet an existence that was on the same par as it, Sarah Heim’s level of gossiping was very high . It talked nonstop . It also didn’t have any sense of keeping secrets . It immediately answered what Sui Xiong asked and simply told him everything it knew . Regarding things it didn’t know, it would tell him that it didn’t know .
When Sui Xiong asked it why it appeared here, it was suddenly stimulated . After roaring for half a day, it finally calmed itself again and told Sui Xiong the reason .
Not too long ago, Sarah Heim could sense the breath of a long-time enemy-Tim Thrall . It followed its breath to find it and passed this place—–according to its sense, the breath was still ahead .
Sui Xiong immediately thought of the accident on the sea before, he couldn’t help but silently guess . . . Does Tim Thrall perhaps stop in the Horn-shaped Barren Land? Or maybe it has already left but hasn’t gone too far?
However, there was one thing he was very curious about . Sarah Heim and Tim Thrall were both incarnations of the “Living Tsunami” – Sarah Clement . Logically, they were blood brothers . Why did Sarah Heim call Tim Thrall a “long-time enemy”?
After he asked about this problem, Sarah Heim’s answered, “That year, when they were split from the corpse of Sarah Clement,the split divinity and remaining God Power of Sarah Clement could not help them deify . The intuition told them that as long as they could kill the opponent, swallow the divinity and God Power of the opponent, they could promote their natural life . Even though it couldn’t help them to deify, at least it could help them become outstanding among the Semi-Gods .
But what was more important was that their strengths were divided into “storm” and “tsunami”, and their powers couldn’t be completed . The reason why Sarah Heim was a little bit slow and foolish was because of this . It wanted to fix itself, to have full intellect and clear thinking . To do that, it had to kill Tim Thrall and recover the entire power .

Of course, the most important reason was very simple—it hated Tim Thrall . And the opposite party must feel the same way too .
“But why do I feel the key point is completely opposite . . . ” Sui Xiong silently ridiculed, swimming like an arrow with his new friend in the sea, following its sea, bolting every which way .
Of course, he didn’t forget to leave Lei a message telling his loyal knight not to worry about him .
Sarah Heim’s strength was a little bit stronger than Tim Thrall’s . But its movement was quite slow . Therefore, even though it could sense Tim Thrall’s breath, it couldn’t chase Tim Thrall, but was just wasting its strength following behind . But with Sui Xiong’s help, the situation was totally different . Although this was just Sui Xiong’s avatar here, whose fighting force was way weaker than his original body that was constantly gathering strength in the Northwest mainland’s sky, it was still able to help Sarah Heim speed up .
Under the help of Sui Xiong, Sarah Heim took back a tremendous amount of its power, and turned into a raging tornado on the sea, leisurely swimming toward the Horn-Shaped Barren Land .
Honestly, its speed couldn’t be considered fast . In Sui Xiong’s perspective, it was indeed not much different from a turtle . However, Sarah Heim was extremely satisfied with this speed—which was already the highest speed it had ever had in its life . Moreover, it could guarantee that Tim Thrall couldn’t possess such a speed!
As long as it could maintain the current speed, following its natural sense, it would not be long until it could catch up with Tim Thrall, and completely destroy this rascal, which had been fighting with it for countless months and years!
Time flew very fast on the sea . In a blink, it had already been more than a month . Lei’s group had arrived smoothly in the Blue Moon Kingdom . After a little rest, they found a boat to get to Garles city right away . Although it was a cargo ship and the resting conditions weren’t considered good to those who were in a hurry to find clues, a little bit of hardship was not too much more to endure .
After an unpleasant trip, they finally reached their destination, arriving in the Garles city .
The name Garles City came from the ‘bay leaf’, a local specialty . It was an important spice, which only grew around the Garles city . It was an excellent seasoning . Although there were some variants, which were not suitable for food, they could be used for makeup . Bay leaf’s grass was the most important resource of this city, also the origin of the city’s name—–“Garles” was the local pronunciation of the “bay leaf” .
People said that the local specialty “bay leaf”grew from the leaf falling from the Holy Tree of the Goddess of Forest/the Goddess of Harvest/ the Goddess of Ocean/ the Moon God/ the God of Swamp (many sects had claimed the Bay Leaf was the masterpiece of their Sect’s God . Many different sects had this same content in the God’s canon) . Although, many people didn’t know the reason why when the leaf fell on the ground, it would turn into grass with a white flower . This kind of Bay Leaf’s grass marvelously grew well only in Garles city and area around Garles city . If it was raised in other areas, the quantity and quality would decrease tremendously .

The one who started selling Bay leaf the earliest was the Wright viscount . For some unknown reason, this family became dilapidated and their business was stolen by the Riley family . After taking over the business in the main share of the bay leaf industry, the Riley focused on maritime transport, and slowly built and expanded the available shallow water port . With the efforts from ten generations, an important harbor city was finally built on the east coast of the mainland .
In early spring every year was the time to harvest the edible high-class Bay leaf, which had gone through an entire winter of aborning . All the sects would join hands to conduct the grand Exploitation Ceremony . In the ceremony, there were not only special performances, but the people in charge of Gods and Saints would also pray for God’s blessing to grant a shower of grace, to cure all pains . Hence, every time winter ended, there would be many hangers-on coming here from many places . They might be here to enjoy a bustling scene, but they were more likely to get some light .
Aromatic herb, shipbuilding, sea transport, trading and tourism, the economic structure of this city was pretty complicated . Anything could bring an abundance of profit . But at least one-third of these profits had fallen into the hands of the Riley family, making them become the genuine ruler of this city .
Through generations, the Riley all worshiped the Goddess of Harvest, which was the biggest influence in this city . They didn’t only have influence in daily life, but in the divine domain, they also had a big impact—-the priests of the Harvest Goddess’ Church through generations were all taken charge of by the Riley . This could show the blessing of the Goddess to them .
Garles city had three harbors in total . Among those, ‘Riley harbor’ of course belonged to the Riley’s . While the other two harbors ‘Aromatic herb harbor’ and ‘Abundance harbor’ were under the control of the union of other organizations . The place where Lei’s group got off the boat was the Abundance harbor .
Although they were in a hurry to find the clue about the accident on sea, they weren’t dumb enough to go straight to the residence of the city Lord . Instead, they found a hotel to arrange everything properly first and then separated to inquire information .
Lei habitually found a person with an abundant information resource . This time, he expressed that he wanted to find the main influences in the city as well as the mighty people who he needed to pay attention to and shouldn’t offend .
This kind of thing was very common . If an experienced adventurer intended to have a long-term development in a place, he would ask in details about the situation of the place . Thus, the information seller didn’t pay attention to that either . After answering several questions, he gave him a thick pile of documents—-without a doubt, there would be significant intelligence in it .
Lei spent some time seriously reading all of these documents . His impression about this city became devastating, —-on the outside, this city was majestic and dazzling . But on the inside, evilness and schemes were in an innumerable succession . It was really a gilded exterior, shabby and ruined on the inside . Only the churches of the Evil Gods had more than ten . Even the number of the lunatic worshipers of the Devil god, who created numerous disasters and terrors, was countless .
What Lei paid the most attention towas the situation of the Riley family of the city Lord . According to the intelligence, the current city Lord was Joseph Riley . He was a superb powerhouse who had stepped into the legendary realm . He was about sixty years old . No matter if it was his body or his mind, they were both in top condition . He had the most assets and most powerful organization in this city . Even he himself was no doubt the strongest . His position was indeed as firm as stone, making all the bandits not dare to have evil intentions toward him .
He had three children . His oldest daughter was Holly . She was thirty-two, lively and healthy . She had become the priest of the Harvest Goddess’ church, and had not married . She was smart and arrogant . Her schemes were extremely unyielding . She would absolutely get revenge if she had a grudge with someone .
His second son – Shane was twenty-six years old . He had got married and had two sons . This young master-Shane was a modest, gentle, and approachable person . His competency was also good; he was an excellent swordsman . But the intelligence emphasized that the young master Shane was not an easy person to deal with like his appearance . Whoever offended him, that person had better find a good tomb then talk about everything else .
The youngest daughter of the city Lord Joseph was Kasari . She was fourteen years old this year . She was the child of him and his second wife, after his first wife had died . This girl was beautiful . She sang and danced very well . Her personality was a little naive . Maybe because everyone adored his youngest daughter, the city lord had arranged an entire army to protect her to avoid any possible danger .
Joseph had been married twice . His first wife was a mighty adventurer, who adventured that year with him . After getting married, she didn’t want to retire and died in an adventure . After that, he married a daughter of a city lord of another trading city . She was an ordinary lady . This year, she was only thirty years old . She really doted on her daughter, loved poetry and play . She herself was also a pretty famous playwright, previously an editor in chief for a play .
Except for that, the Riley family had been through many generations of doing business and developing . They had many branches, which constantly had many outstanding preeminent people . At least one-third of the documents were about the branches and organization under the command of the Riley’s, which made Lei silently frightened .
It seemed like it would not be easy to interrogate the person who has a high possibility of becoming the next heir of the family – Shane Riley, about the clue of the accident on the sea in a city of the Riley’s!
