They chatted over tea, and Qin Nan ate Zhu Yu Cao for lunch, while Bai Hao and Meng Zhang didn't need it at all.

With nothing else to do, Bai Hao took Qin Nan for a stroll in the Mirage in the afternoon. The Mirage was quite large, mostly consisting of mountains and valleys, with many villages and small markets.

This mirage is full of life. Compared to the mirage built by Li Yuchu, this is the real Shangri-La, a fairyland on earth.

As the sun set, Bai Hao spoke to Meng Zhang, opened the gate to the Mirage Realm, and led Qin Nan away from the Mirage Realm to the desolate mountain in reality.

Bai Hao handed the crabapples that Bai Weiwei had given him to Qin Nan. Qin Nan was taken aback for a moment when she saw the very familiar shopping bag, and then she took it.

Bai Hao: "Where do you want to go? I'll take you as close as possible."

Qin Nan: "Fusang Island, the land of sunrise."

Bai Hao paused for a moment, then suddenly remembered that Su Kun had once stirred up chaos in the world, starting with the theft of the Golden Crow's corpse.

Bai Hao: "Yes, it is indeed a place I cannot approach, but you..."

Qin Nan: "I won't be discovered by Xihe, since no one knows I exist."

Bai Hao: "Okay."

Bai Hao transformed into his original form and carried Qin Nan closer to Fusang Island. Because of Su Kun's matter, Fusang Island's barrier had been reinforced, and ordinary beasts and humans would be discovered if they broke in.

The corpses of the nine golden crows disappeared without a trace after Su Kun vanished, and no one dared to provoke Xi He, who was filled with pent-up anger.

Bai Haofei flew on the sea, with Qin Nan sitting on his back. She ate a crabapple, and fake gills grew on her jawline and neck, allowing her to breathe underwater.

Qin Nan put the remaining crabapples, her cell phone, and other items into her storage magic bracelet, then leaped into the sea.

Qin Nan slowly opened her eyes, and once she was comfortable enough to see the underwater world clearly, she swam towards Fusang Island.

The barrier was quite large. Qin Nan swam for a long time, even eating a crabapple on the surface of the sea. After swimming for a while longer, she finally saw the roots of the Fusang tree stretching out and intertwining beneath the land and in the seawater below Fusang Island.

The thickest root is as thick as Qin Nan's waist. Countless roots intertwine and float underwater, looking from a distance like countless black tentacles, which is somewhat eerie.

Qin Nan looked at the root system in front of him with a headache. He remembered the location, but the root system could grow, which would affect the location.

He swam over and searched through the roots. Fusang Island was very large, and the entire island was covered with floating tree roots. Qin Nan found the general area and then searched carefully.

As the sun set, Xihe led the only golden crow to rest at the divine tree at the far end of the western wilderness. It was the furthest place from here, and it would take another night to return from Ruomu, so Qin Nan was not in a hurry.

As dusk fell and the sea temperature dropped, there was little light. Qin Nan had already eaten several crabapples, but fortunately Bai Weiwei had given her more.

Without light, Qin Nan could only use the power of the jade pendant to turn his pupils jet black, allowing him to see clearly even in the dark.

After searching for a while, just before midnight, Qin Nan finally found a roll of brocade where the tree roots were entangled. Touching the slightly warm brocade, Qin Nan breathed a sigh of relief, put the brocade away, and slowly swam upwards.

Although she had rested several times, she was still very tired. Qin Nan floated on the surface of the sea for a while, then ate a crabapple and dived back into the water, returning the way she came.

Qin Nan swam slowly in the dark, lightless sea. As he approached the barrier, he felt a chill run down his spine, as if something was following him.

He turned his head to look, but found nothing.

As soon as he stepped out of the barrier, a shadow suddenly fell upon him. He turned around sharply, and a huge dragon head appeared before him.

The dragon head was also surprised when Qin Nan suddenly turned around, and both of them were startled and stunned.

"Hey bro, why did you suddenly turn around? You scared me to death! I was about to say hello!"

The sweet, childlike voice of a little girl came through, and Qin Nan, who had just come back to his senses, was stunned for a moment.

The dragon head swam around Qin Nan once before Qin Nan realized that she was a dragon head with a fish body.

It turned out to be a Chiwen, and judging from its voice, it was still a cub.

This reminded Qin Nan of Chi Wei at home, and she wondered if this Chiwen was related to Chi Wei.

Qin Nan: [I can't speak easily in the water. Are you a Chiwen? Do you know Chi Wei?]

【Hmm? Little brother, do you know my brother? My name is Chi Ran, and Chi Wei is my brother!】

Qin Nan was surprised to hear this; it was quite a coincidence.

Qin Nan: [Ranran? Can I call you that?]

Chi Ran: [Mmm! Not bad, bro.]

Qin Nan: [Ranran, why are you here alone... uh, all alone? You're still a little cub, aren't you with any adult beasts?]

Chi Ran stiffened, her voice trembling with tears: "My parents went out, and I was so bored at home, so I secretly ran away... I rarely go out, but I ran far away on a whim, and now I can't find my way back."

It was alright during the day, but I got really scared when it got dark. I didn't see any animals, not even a fish...

Hey buddy, you're the only one I've met. Do you know the way?

Qin Nan: [I don't know the way to your house, but you can come with me. Do you know Bai Hao? I know where Bai Hao is. If we find him, we can contact your parents to come pick you up, right?]

Upon hearing this, Chi Ran's previously downcast and dim eyes immediately brightened!

Chi Ran: [Okay, okay, little brother, I'll carry you on my back, it'll be faster. Give me directions, I'm so hungry, I want to find Bai Hao quickly so I can get something to eat.]

As she spoke, Chi Ran lifted her head, and Qin Nan flipped onto her. A stream of water wrapped around Qin Nan's waist, binding him. After Qin Nan pointed in a direction, Chi Ran quickly swung her fish tail, and the two of them sped away.

Bai Hao remained floating on the sea, waiting so that Qin Nan could find him after nightfall. He wore a fist-sized luminous pearl on his waist, which shone brightly on the dark sea.

As they got closer to Bai Hao, Chi Ran saw the light and headed straight for him without Qin Nan's directions.

Bai Hao felt the seawater ripple and looked up. He saw a large dragon head emerge from the water, which startled him. He quickly stepped back.

Chi Ran's excitement froze on her face, and her orange beast eyes instantly lost their luster.

Chi Ran: "Waaaaah, Brother Bai Hao, it's me, Ranran! You don't love Ranran anymore, waaaaah! You actually dislike Ranran..."

Bai Hao: "...No."

He really didn't expect Chi Ran to be here. His first reaction was that Qin Nan had suddenly turned into a dragon. Caught off guard, this was truly terrifying!

Bai Hao: "Ranran, what are you doing here?"

Just as Bai Hao finished asking, Qin Nan also came out of the water. He had been soaking for a long time and was feeling very uncomfortable. Moreover, he had used up too much strength. If it weren't for the jade pendant, he wouldn't have been able to hold on until now.

Seeing this, Bai Hao scooped Qin Nan up, dried his clothes, and used his divine power to restore him. There was nothing he could do about his wrinkled hands and feet; he could only slowly recover after getting ashore.
