Ye Fei urgently said, "It will take a very long time to get everyone onto the ship!"

According to his estimate, by the time the Purgatory Fire engulfs the entire Hualien Town and falls into the sea at the bottom of the cliff, at least a thousand people would not have been transferred onto the massive ship.

If by then no solution to stop it has been thought of, we would have no choice but to abandon those thousand people and let the three massive ships outside the gap sail away. Otherwise, everyone who has already been rescued onto the ship would be swallowed by the Purgatory Fire falling into the sea.

But who has the authority to make the decision to abandon over a thousand lives?

"Even if it's just one person who isn't rescued, they should not be abandoned!" Ye Fei said to Xie Xiaofeng by his side.

Xie Xiaofeng nodded, showing agreement with Ye Fei's words.

"Let's go down and help with the rescue," Xie Xiaofeng said to Ye Fei, "Let's not worry too much for now, save as many as we can."

Ye Fei nodded. Just as he was about to leave with Xie Xiaofeng hand in hand, a flash of purple door suddenly appeared in the night sky.

Then, Chen Hao jumped out from it.

Although he had only just promised Ye Yuqiao not to leave for long, thinking of the situation on Calabash Fairy Island, he couldn't sleep and quietly came while Ye Yuqiao was asleep.

After quickly glancing at the Six Finger Mountain, which had collapsed two peaks, Chen Hao landed beside Ye Fei and Xie Xiaofeng.

"Chen Hao, how did you get here?"

Ye Fei asked in surprise, "Is your wife okay?"

Chen Hao shook his head: "It's okay, it was just a false alarm."

"We really needed her help just now; otherwise, we couldn't have handled those black lion beasts."

Chen Hao gave a slight smile and then looked down at the distant sea where the three rescue ships and the people fighting to be rescued onto the ships were.

"How did the people of Hualien Town get over there?" Chen Hao frowned and asked, "They didn't jump off this cliff, did they?"

"It was Ye Fei!" Xie Xiaofeng replied, "He manipulated the sea water to rise up, forming an incline, and then people slid down the incline over there."

Hearing Xie Xiaofeng's explanation, Chen Hao's face immediately showed an expression of disbelief.

"Chen Hao, can you think of a way to stop the flames and lava on Six Finger Mountain?" Ye Fei's expression suddenly turned solemn, "They will soon devour this place and the sea below, and there are still so many people who haven't been rescued onto the ship."

Chen Hao nodded: "It's possible! But Yuqiao said that to completely get rid of that glowing tree and the black lion beasts, we would need to destroy Six Finger Mountain, perhaps even the entire island, otherwise she would not leave Purgatory Fire on this island."

Ye Fei nodded with complete confidence: "I know. We just need to delay the fire and get everyone onto the ship!"

"I can manage that," Chen Hao calmly said.

After speaking, he teleported above Six Finger Mountain, already holding the Nether King's World-Slaying Blade in his left hand.

He gathered a large amount of Nether King's Power in the Nether King's World-Slaying Blade, then threw the blade into the Purgatory Fire between Six Finger Mountain and Hualien Town.

Instantly, a large area of the Purgatory Fire nearby was frozen into sparkling and translucent ice, halting the spread of Purgatory Fire towards Hualien Town.

Seeing this, Ye Fei and Xie Xiaofeng exchanged glances and showed relief on their faces.

Everyone can be saved now; there's no longer the dilemma of whether to abandon more than a thousand people.

After Chen Hao landed back beside the two of them, the three went to the three giant ships together to help with the rescue.

Over an hour passed.

With everyone's combined efforts, all the residents of Hualian Town were successfully rescued onto the giant ships, during which Chen Hao infused the Nether King's World-Slaying Blade with the Nether King's Power three times.

Most areas of the Gourd Immortal Island had already been devoured by the Purgatory Fire, looking from afar like a mortal Purgatory.

Standing on the giant ship and looking at the Gourd Immortal Island, Ye Fei lamented, "There goes the Gourd Immortal Island! I was thinking of bringing Yan Ru here for our honeymoon, to take the world's most thrilling cliff bungee jump together."

"As long as two people love each other, any place is the same for a honeymoon!" Chen Hao said, patting Ye Fei's shoulder.

"I get what you mean," Ye Fei replied with a small smile towards Chen Hao, "When I get back, I'll definitely take the initiative."

After speaking, Ye Fei took out his cellphone to check, and then said with surprise, "Yan Ru just called me!"

"Her calling you this late could only mean two things: either she's worried about you, or there's an emergency at home."

Ye Fei's face suddenly turned somber, worried that Yan Ru's father, who was also his father-in-law, had encountered some trouble. So he dialed Yan Ru's number and walked towards a secluded area.

Just then, Hua Shan silently returned to Chen Hao's side.

"I didn't expect you to come back." Hua Shan sighed.

"If I didn't come back, you would definitely go to the Netherworld to find me, which would disturb my wife's rest, so I might as well come back on my own." Chen Hao said.

Hua Shan laughed heartily twice, "And you're so sure about that?"

"Because you've got thick skin!"

Hua Shan laughed again, albeit with a slightly embarrassed expression this time. He then looked at the increasingly distant Gourd Immortal Island and asked, "If it weren't for the help of you and the Nether King couple, Campus Hero, and those Onmyoji, just relying on our Superpower Organization wouldn't stand a chance against those beastmen. Haven't you ever considered joining us?"

"We're already the rulers of the Yin Realm and the Netherworld, would we be interested in joining some strange organization in the mortal world?" Chen Hao said with a half-smile.

"That's true," Hua Shan said, looking disappointed, "but I hope we can continue to cooperate in the future."

"Now we have a problem," Hua Shan quickly changed the subject, "Since we've destroyed the Gourd Immortal Island, the authorities will definitely want to settle scores with us and classify us as dangerous criminals. When do you plan to escape? I bet there are already a lot of police officers waiting at the O city port to apprehend us."

"What!" Xie Xiaofeng, standing beside Chen Hao, was shocked, "It was us who defeated the Black Lion Beast and then saved over six thousand people!"

Hua Shan snorted in disdain: "Kid, you're too naive. Do you really think the authorities will report news about unscientific things like the Black Lion Beast? It's definitely going to be attributed to the operations of a transnational criminal group, and we'll be the ones shouldering the blame."

"Hua Shan's right!"

At that moment, Ye Fei came back from the call, looking nonchalant as he said, "Despite the gratitude from the people on the ship now, once we land, they'll blame us for destroying their homeland!"

The words of Hua Shan and Ye Fei were a real eye-opener for Chen Hao and Xie Xiaofeng.

"To be a hero, one must bear these criticisms and charges!" Hua Shan continued.

Ye Fei nodded vigorously, strongly agreeing with this point.

"I'm off, see you another day!"
