"The Kraken?" Zuan's expression was somewhat strange. He had seen this monster in the secret realm before, and it seemed to have a special ability...

Just then, the window next to them suddenly cracked open, and a tentacle swept towards the two of them, clearly sensing the scent of delicious flesh and blood.

Just as the tentacles were about to reach the table, Zuan casually waved his hand and said, "Get lost!"

The chopsticks in his hand shot out like a beam of light. The tentacles, which had been unable to be breached by the attacks of so many guests, were directly pierced and absorbed into his body by these chopsticks. The special mucus on his body surface seemed to have no effect at all.

A piercing scream rang out, and the glass in all the restaurant's windows shattered. The tentacle, in pain, instantly retracted.

Immediately afterwards, the countless tentacles that had been so imposing on the ship seemed to be startled and all retreated back into the sea, while a huge figure fled in panic beneath the surface.

The sailors on deck, and countless cultivators who had survived the ordeal, watched this scene unfold:

Why did that monster suddenly leave?

"Perhaps our attack just now had an effect; it knows we're not to be trifled with."

"Hehe, I'd rather believe it was full than that. Just now, countless guests and sailors had their flesh and blood sucked dry by its tentacles."

...

Ultimately, everyone deduced the most reasonable reason: the heavy weapons on the ship were about to be deployed, and the monster, somewhat wary and having eaten its fill, chose to leave.

Only Shang Hongyu knew the real reason, and she stared at the man opposite her in surprise.

Although the window had shattered and debris was flying everywhere in the restaurant, there seemed to be an invisible force field around the table where the two were sitting, keeping all the debris out.

The dishes on the table, even the wine glasses, were all intact.

Noticing her expression, Zu An smiled and said, "Wasn't I handsome just now?"

Shang Hongyu blushed and quickly looked away: "Hmph, he's about the same as the Dragon King, I've seen plenty of those."

She knew very well that although the Dragon King was not afraid of the giant sea monster, he was basically relying on the natural pressure of the dragon bloodline. If they were to actually fight, he probably wouldn't be able to do what he just did with such ease.

Zuan didn't take it seriously. He simply took out a porcelain bottle and casually waved it. The pinkish slime left by the injured tentacle was directly sucked into the bottle.

Seeing this, Shang Hongyu's eyes widened: "You're not a good person."

Zu An was taken aback: "What do you mean by that?"

Shang Hongyu pointed at his porcelain bottle: "The slime of the Kraken has a strong aphrodisiac effect, especially on women and females, and has an extremely domineering effect. Who do you intend to use this to deal with?"

At this point, she crossed her arms tightly to her chest and leaned back slightly: "You're not planning to use it on me, are you?"

Zuan: "..."

He said irritably, "If I really wanted to do something to you, why would I need something like this? The reason I collected this is because this viscous liquid is an extremely high-quality ingredient for making medicine. It is very rare, so I naturally kept it when I saw it."

"So you know how to make medicine... Wait, what did you mean by what you said earlier? What do you mean by 'If you want to do something to me, why would you need something like this?'" Shang Hongyu looked at him angrily.

Zuan chuckled and held up a finger, waving it: "Have you forgotten the special effect of my healing energy?"

Shang Hongyu then recalled the scene when he healed her wounds. Although it was only for a moment, she estimated that she would never forget that feeling for the rest of her life.

If you have that ability, you really don't need to use the Kraken's slime to do those things.

"Pah, vulgar!" Her cheeks flushed, and she spat.

Zuan: "..."

I was clearly explaining things to this woman, was it easy for me?

Just then, they heard noisy footsteps outside, and the two quickly looked away.

"Let's go out first," Shang Hongyu suggested. If other people came in and saw the two of them safe and sound, it would inevitably arouse suspicion.

"Alright." Zu An stood up and casually flicked his hand, shattering the chairs the two had just been sitting on into pieces, as if they had been ravaged by his tentacles.

Shang Hongyu nodded secretly; this man was indeed thoughtful.

Soon a group of sailors came in and were somewhat surprised to see the two of them: "You two are lucky; you weren't eaten by that monster."

Shang Hongyu patted her chest and said with a look of lingering fear, "Luckily, we hid in a corner, and the monster suddenly left, which saved us from disaster."

Zuan watched with amusement as she completely fooled the sailors; it seemed women were all born actresses.

Soon the two arrived on the deck, enjoying the sea breeze and watching the sailors busily repairing various parts of the ship. Many rooms had been smashed to pieces by the huge tentacles, and even several of the ship's massive ballistae had been destroyed.

The ship's doctor had a relatively easy job, only needing to comfort the guests in each room, since the previous round had mostly resulted in deaths, with no injuries.

Looking towards her room in the distance, Shang Hongyu couldn't help but feel a little happy: "It seems we're quite lucky; the room is safe and sound."

Is there some kind of arrangement in the dark?

“If that guy dares to damage our room, he won’t be leaving,” Zuan said casually.

Just then, a few customers passed by and overheard his words. They couldn't help but roll their eyes and say, "What nonsense are you spouting?"

That woman looked like a fool, to be fooled by such a flimsy lie. But she wasn't good-looking, no wonder she was so naive.

Zuan: "..."
