In a world of pure martial arts, Yun Shou initially believed he could only live an ordinary life with the weak cheat he possessed.
That was until the age of fourteen, when he obtained a secon...
You noticed the defiant expressions on the faces of those newcomers, and honestly, you were really hoping some clueless idiot would suddenly jump out and provoke you.
Yun Shou: "That's right, it's really satisfying to show off, especially when you're in a sure-fire situation."
He reminisced for a while.
The most devastating victory was against the spiny-finned fish (Chapter 28).
"It's too dangerous. You could easily die."
His most evenly matched battle was against Xu Ruohai, the current Right Protector of the Qinghe Gang.
"That's terrifying! I have no idea what I'll have to go through if I lose!"
Yun Shou sighed, "It's only after the seventh day that things become a little safer..."
[It's a pity no one is provoking you. They're unhappy with your behavior; it's a psychological reaction stemming from the disparity in status. But even the Supreme One hasn't said anything. They're not idiots, so of course they won't show their faces.]
This meeting concerns the future development of Hanhai Ningbo, and because you happen to be here, Qin Zhenhai also called you over.
[After all, you are now "resting with the domain," and an important part of the Vast Ocean's condensing waves. It's one thing if you're not around normally, but now you're here to participate.]
Now, most of the sea monsters have been wiped out, and of the original two hundred third-realm great monsters in the Vast Sea of Still Waves, it is estimated that less than five remain.
More than a hundred were killed, and more than twenty escaped, some even fleeing into the sea creatures' waters. Qin Zhenhai couldn't very well go in to hunt them down.
[The sea race openly has over a hundred Supreme Beings.]
"Besides, I can't really wipe out these sea monsters completely." Qin Zhenhai said helplessly. Over 95% of the tens of millions of miles of land was water; how could he possibly exterminate them all?
Occasionally, sporadic attacks by first and second-realm sea monsters still occur on the small island and fishing boats.
Qin Zhenhai stated that it would be very difficult for humans to control large areas of water, and he is considering finding aquatic races as partners for mutual benefit.
"But the best partner is the sea creatures, yet the sea creatures and sea monsters can essentially be considered the same race..."
You paused for a moment, then said, "Uh, haven't you thought about going to find Shui Ling?"
Those present began to murmur amongst themselves.
"Shui Ling, isn't she also a member of the sea race?"
"I remember the Sea Prince from back then; he was a water giant, wasn't that a branch of the water spirit?"
"I've encountered some natural water spirits; they're part of the sirens!"
You remain silent.
No wonder I hadn't seen any water spirits near the Vast Ocean Waves before; it turns out they have a bad reputation and aren't popular here?
[You haven't been here long enough; you've been either fighting monsters or partying, so you haven't gotten to know these details.]
This is probably a kind of regional prejudice.
The "Water Giants," the mortal enemies of humanity in this vast realm, are indeed similar to water spirits. Moreover, the water spirits naturally born in this sea are certainly closer to the sea spirits than to humans.
[Furthermore... the legitimate territory of the Water Spirit Clan, "Wanshui Territory," is hundreds of millions of miles away from the Vast Ocean of Waves. It's too far, and they rarely come into contact with it. Over time, in the eyes of the people of this vast region, the Water Spirits have not been viewed as a good thing.]
Encountering a friendly Water Spirit in the war zone might lead to conflict, or at best, a misunderstanding that prevents further interaction!
[Some people from the Vast Ocean still harbor resentment: the humans from other great domains actually claimed the sea race was a neutral race, and even said the water spirits were a friendly race... Isn't that pure nonsense!]
Those present were all overlords or even supreme beings, not just those who held stereotypes. They knew that the water spirit you mentioned was indeed an ally.
Just because you were dumped by your partner doesn't mean all men and women are bad.
[They were just stuck in their old ways of thinking and hadn't quite grasped the concept, but now that they have... they all agree it's feasible!]
[Choose Water Spirit as our partner and immediately launch a campaign across all the islands to sever ties with the old Siren Water God and Water Spirit completely!]
"One last question: who will go as an envoy to the Water Spirit Clan?"
Qin Zhenhai looked around.
Then I saw your hand, raised high, almost poking into his nostril.
"It's you I've chosen, Shouyun!"
"You won't even call me 'brother'!" You're complaining.
Qin Zhenhai, expressionless: "Don't be too abstract when you're working."
In 2979, you contacted Xixiqi through the Meta-Energy Network.
"Interested in joining the Undying Spirit Clan?"
"Want to engage in the Water Giant Slave Trade?"
"Want to have a wider body of water?"
"Then come on, I've left all my treasures in the Vast Ocean's Rippling Waves!"
[Xixi paused for a moment, then answered the video call. You keenly noticed that the person in the video, Shui Ling, had a different complexion, changing from light blue to dark blue.]
[It's possible that Xixiqi has upgraded and changed color recently, but it's impossible that her simulated face and expression have also changed!]
You become alert: "Who are you? You're not Xixi Qi!"
[“Human Guardian Cloud, I am Xixi Qi’s ‘mother,’ splash splash.”]
"So she's yet another P... friend's mother."
Yun Shou nodded. If he remembered correctly, among the water spirits that had exploited Yun Jiu the most were Hua La La and the Water King Wu Hu Hu.
In front of those beautiful girls, Xixi Qi was as innocent as a green recruit!
It has too few varieties!
[You had a detailed discussion with Hualala, and with Xixiqi acting as an intermediary, the atmosphere was quite good right from the start.]
[You two discussed this in detail on the Yuan Energy Network for half a month. Qin Zhenhai had already sent you the details of Han Hai Ning Bo's interests through mental communication.]
[Your current intimacy level with Han Hai Ning Bo is much higher than with Shui Ling.]
[Over the years, countless "illegitimate children" of yours have emerged from the vast ocean of waves. Qin Zhenhai has repeatedly emphasized that you have stifled the vitality of whales; he's practically calling you a sheep's tail.]
[Your favorability towards Shui Ling comes from the previous simulations, which certainly can't compare to the experience of witnessing the Vast Ocean's Waves firsthand in this life!]
Finally, you negotiated terms that satisfied and were acceptable to both parties.
[You were about to tell Qin Zhenhai the news of the successful negotiation when Hua Lala spoke first: "Shouyun, my mother wants to see you; she's very curious about you."]
[The mother of the splashing water—is the Water King, Wuhuhu! The only Fourth Realm Supreme of the Water Spirit Clan!]
Unfortunately, it seems to be only the most basic human-level supreme being. After the water spirit gained sentience, its lifespan was similar to that of humans. In his previous life, Yun Jiu participated in its funeral and almost lost his guard, advancing to the third realm and becoming demonized on the spot.
[You forget about Qin Zhenhai for now, and like lightning, you soar to your limit, speeding towards a destination hundreds of millions of miles away...]
