The poorest rich man novel (Chen Hao)

Chapter 782 Legend of the Hidden Dragon Island

For the past few days, Master Ghost had been coordinating his Nine Dragons Algorithm and the

Ashura Compass to come out with an accurate derivation.

It was rumored that the Dragon Squad was first formed some ten thousand years ago.

Of course, it might not have been known as the Dragon Squad back then.

However, they shared the same origins as the Dragon Squad who mainly worked underground.

Just like Bai Xiaosheng from the Wuxia novel, the Asura Compass documented each and every

anecdote from all these years in a detailed manner.

By affirming the facts derived from the Nine Dragons Algorithm with the information contained in the

compass, it could convey any incident in a comprehensive manner.

Master Ghost had relied on this to uncover the location of Hidden Dragon Island. Furthermore, he

found out that the owner of the island was responsible for the Chen Family’s problems in terms of

origin.

“At that time, I heard from Madam Gu that the pioneers of the Chen Family were a family full of superior

cultivators. However, something had caused the Chen Family to perish overnight, and they hit rock

bottom!”

“As for my grandfather…” Chen Hao hesitated for a bit when he mentioned his grandfather. He then

continued, “As for him, he was the only one from the Chen Family who survived. He wanted to seek

vengeance from the Gu Family and seize a magic tool from them, but had failed to do so. Hence, he

ran away and lived in seclusion on Hidden Dragon Island, carrying a great secret with him at that time.

After living alone on the island, he then established the current Chen Cultivator Family, followed by our

Chen Family—both families were single-handedly brought up by him!” explained Chen Hao, thinking

about all the clues he had gathered.

Master Ghost shook his head instead. “Mister, what you have said is more of a summary of the entire

story; you have omitted several key elements. From what I have gathered from the Ashura Compass,

your grandfather… well, Chen Diancang is a fairly complicated person. He seems to be closely related

to a legend that has existed all this while on Hidden Dragon Island!” he said.

“The legend of Hidden Dragon Island?” asked Chen Hao in a surprised manner.

“Yes, Hidden Dragon Island is located in the mysterious territorial waters of the current South Yue.

Rumor has it that a legend had existed tens of thousands of years ago—the legend of the Devil

Incarnate!”

Master Ghost looked at Chen Hao, who had an inquisitive look on his face.

He then turned to Long Ye, who also looked just as puzzled.

“According to the legend, there were many fishermen who fished in that sea tens of thousands of years

ago, but something very peculiar happened—large groups of fishermen began to disappear

mysteriously!” he said.

“At that time, everyone thought that they had simply gotten lost at sea. However, any fisherman would Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

have a sense of direction in the water—they were practically born with that intuition. How could it be

possible for them to lose their way at sea?”

“Other fishermen started to guess that there could’ve been monsters in the sea, or they might have

encountered a typhoon that swept them away to other islands!”

“They prayed sincerely until one day, a group of fishermen who went out to sea encountered a typhoon

which brought them to a deserted island. Upon arriving at the deserted island, they discovered

numbers of mummified corpses!”

“Those corpses were precisely the fishermen who went missing! The group of fishermen panicked

because some of those bodies belonged to fishermen who had just gone out to sea a few days earlier.

Obviously, they had been sucked dry by someone!”

“This terrifying discovery made everyone restless. As soon as the typhoon lost momentum, the men

carried the bodies back to the fishing village. When they returned to the village, everyone in the village

had been mummified; their blood had all been sucked dry!”

“The fishermen were in absolute grief. They risked their lives in search for those who were still alive,

but only one idiot survived. The fishermen then asked him about the incident…”

“The idiot drew everything he saw on a piece of paper. Hehe, the fool seemed to have a habit of

drawing as his artwork was quite decent. The fishermen noticed that he drew a three-eyed monster

with a pair of big feet. Its feet were almost as long as half a human’s body!”

“Moreover, this monster had a very long tongue, with hair reaching its waist. It even knew how to

produce human speech!”

“According to the idiot, a villager had asked him what he was doing there when he first saw the

monster. However, it asked him in return, wanting to know if he was at Hidden Dragon Village.”

“After a kid told him he was indeed at Hidden Dragon Village, the monster executed every single

person there. He was extremely ruthless!”

Master Ghost continued on with the story.

The villagers were extremely furious, so they started looking for people who possessed magical

abilities to fight off the Devil Incarnate.

They wanted revenge.

Not only was the Devil Incarnate skilled in killing people with ease, nobody expected him to possess

great supernatural powers. Thus, many great mages had lost their lives from this.

In the end, the remaining villagers had also lost their lives.

Only the idiot managed to stay alive.

After witnessing the death of the great mages and the whole village caused by the Devil Incarnate, he

suddenly came to his senses, realizing that he was no longer an idiot.

Hence, he decided to take revenge after recalling the incident that happened to him when he was

younger.

There was once an expert who had given the idiot some guidance; if a fierce-looking stranger with

murderous intent approached their village, he would have long hair that reached his calves, three eyes

and a pair of huge feet.

If the monster really showed up, it would mutilate the lives on the island because Hidden Dragon Island

had the fortune of the universe. It was here to cultivate.

Should the idiot really find himself in that situation, he had to burn a special joss stick. As soon as the

joss stick was lit, the expert would appear and slay the demon!

It was the greatest thing the idiot could ever rely on, and he did exactly as he was instructed.

That night, there were streaks of lightning and bolts of thunder on Hidden Dragon Island; there was a

heavy downpour.

It so happened that the Devil Incarnate had discovered life on the island. Thus, it was coming to

consume that idiot.

At that moment, there was a bolt from the blue. A Daoist priest in a dragon robe had appeared, battling

against the Devil Incarnate.

Nevertheless, he was still no match for the monster. In the end, he finally sacrificed his Essence so that

he could give the Devil Incarnate a deadly blow to seal his death!

However, the Devil Incarnate was extremely cunning. Right before his death, he unleashed his own

Essence, transforming it into a demonic light of legacy, also known as the Demon Legacy.

It was a form of consciousness which had been looking for a host to achieve what it meant by rebirth.

This Demon Legacy would slowly take over a human’s mind, who would feel the urge to stir up trouble.

If this really happened, the universe was bound to face a disastrous catastrophe!

Master Ghost paused for a bit before continuing, “After that, nobody visited Hidden Dragon Island for

more than several thousand years. That particular part of the water has since been named as the

Forbidden Sea. As for the idiot, no one knew where he went. It was not until decades ago when a

cultivator moved to the island and founded the Chen Family. The patriarch of that family is Chen

Diancang!”

Master Ghost glanced at Chen Hao.

After hearing Master Ghost’s revelation, Chen Hao could not help but tremble all over.

Although he refused to believe it, at least he had not met his grandfather yet. He did not want to believe

that his lovely grandfather was someone like this.

Chen Hao felt his heart racing after hearing his grandfather’s name coming out from Master Ghost’s

mouth.

“I find it hard to believe that with the superiority my grandfather has, he would want to live in seclusion.

What was his purpose of doing so?” asked Chen Hao, confused.

Master Ghost shook his head. “It is very complicated, and no one knows what Chen Diancang’s goal is.

However, I think you will be interested in one of the records involving him from his early years. At the

same time, you will have a new perception toward Chen Diancang!”

“Huh?”

Chen Hao looked at Master Ghost, puzzled.

“You mentioned earlier that Chen Diancang’s original family was a family full of cultivators, but they

perished overnight! Mister, do you know who was the one who killed the entire Chen Family?” asked

Master Ghost, who suddenly lowered his voice.
