The King of Black Fog

"The situation is turning grim," one said.

"Hasn't it always been like this?" came the reply.

...

Eagles soar through the sky, fish dart in the shallow waters,...

Chapter 231 The Path of Hell

The seawater crashed down, making a crackling sound on the surface, and ripples spread outwards.

A faint golden light surrounded Yaochi's body, keeping the rainwater away.

"Aren't you supposed to be the most powerful and invincible person in the world?" she mocked. "How come you couldn't even defeat a weak woman like me in two moves?"

“If you’re a weak woman, there are no strong women in the world,” Li Changzhou said.

"Hearing his words terrified me so much I broke out in a cold sweat!"

"Only today, after fifteen years, have I spoken the truth."

Who sang it?

"Li Weikang's 'Si Lang Visits His Mother'".

Yaochi extended her fair and slender hand to shake his hand.

"We're on the same wavelength," she said.

“The tacit understanding between friends.” Li Changzhou extended his hand.

Yaochi withdrew her hand, and a stream of water appeared out of thin air between her fingers, washing her fingers and palms.

"...We haven't even held hands yet."

"You've already dirtied it."

This woman is really unpretentious.

"Is this one of yours?" Li Changzhou raised his left hand, and the 'naked woman' who was being choked by the back of her neck had fainted during the fight.

"I sent an undercover agent to Zheng Chenggong's ship," Yaochi said after glancing at it.

Li Changzhou handed the person to her without ever glancing down at the 'naked woman'.

"You are very virtuous and self-disciplined," Yaochi said with a smile as she accepted the gift.

“Just kidding, I’ve read ‘Male Virtue’.” Li Changzhou flicked his sleeve, quite proudly.

Yaochi released her hand and threw the 'Fruit Girl' into the sea. Soon, the seawater swirled, outlining half of the 'Fruit Girl's' body.

"Lady Yaochi!" Even though her body was made of seawater, she still trembled when she saw Yaochi.

Yaochi waved her hand: "This time it's not your fault. In the future, if you see him, just come out and say hello. You can also look for him if you are in danger."

"Sorry." Li Changzhou smiled and clasped his hands in a fist salute to the 'naked woman'.

He looked at Yaochi: "Coming with us?"

"Alright, I'll be the empress."

"......"

The two men rushed toward Zheng Chenggong's warship.

Yaochi can fly, but Li Changzhou cannot (his entrance by stepping into the air is cool, but his travel skills are too basic), so the two of them flew across the sea.

With a light touch of the toes on the seawater, one is propelled into the air and walks on the waves.

"Who are you?" Li Changzhou asked on the way.

"The immortal from Penglai," Yaochi replied.

"Really?"

Would I lie to you?

"No, what I mean is... never mind."

"Do you know what I hate most is people who only say half of what they mean?"

Actually, it's... Ah, we've arrived.

"Li Changzhou!"

The two landed on the deck. The beauty of Yaochi was breathtaking, and the white hair and the awe-inspiring, almost mythical, white hair made people hesitant to approach, once again leaving the ancient people around them in awe.

Yaochi didn't look at them; she looked at Yang Qinglan, and the two exchanged a glance.

Yaochi looked at her with a smile, while Yang Qinglan's expression remained calm and composed.

"Let me make this clear first, Miss Yang is the only one in my heart," Li Changzhou quickly said, now was not the time to care about any immortal dignity.

“He’s not acting out of guilt; he genuinely thinks that way,” Yaochi said, speaking up for him.

Yang Qinglan looked at Li Changzhou, her eyes gleaming like two of the most beautiful gems, the center of the universe.

"I believe that with your keen insight, you will never be sown apart by outsiders!" Li Changzhou appeared resolute, but in reality, he was trembling with fear.

"Are you injured?" Yang Qinglan asked him.

No, no.

Yang Qinglan nodded, indicating that everything was alright.

Yaochi's smile deepened—this was battle intent. Just as she was about to say something, a streak of light shot down from the horizon, and Li Qianxia appeared on the deck riding a springbok.

"Brother, look!" She held her head high, her fingers holding an ID card, looking very proud.

"You are the most beautiful, the most obedient, and the strongest little sister in the world."

"Hmph." Li Qianxia snorted, then noticed Yaochi. "Ah, Sister Yaochi!"

She lifted her leg, got off the springbok, hugged Yaochi's waist, and buried her face in her chest.

"Sister Yaochi~" She rubbed her face and then looked up, "I never expected to meet you this time, it's so great!"

"Your brother hits me as soon as we meet," Yaochi complained.

Li Changzhou stood beside Yang Qinglan and whispered to her, "Did you hear that?"

Yang Qinglan first glanced at him, then swept her gaze toward Zheng Chenggong, signaling him to do something serious.

Li Changzhou put his hands behind his back and said to Zheng Chenggong, "Your Highness Zheng, give the order to continue advancing."

"Alright. All troops, continue the advance!"

A flag was raised atop the mainmast to signal continued progress, and 300 sailboats once again headed towards the island.

“Immortal Master,” Zheng Chenggong walked to Li Changzhou’s side, “who were those people just now?”

"Where there is yin, there is yang; where there is sunshine, there is rain. Just as there are immortals like myself who follow the will of Heaven, there are also demons who act against the will of Heaven. You don't need to worry about these; they are natural disasters. Leave them to me. You need to prepare for the battle ahead. I will not interfere in the affairs between you mortals."

Once any "natural disaster" is resolved, history will naturally unfold in its own timeline.

Li Changzhou instructed Zheng Chenggong to prepare a cabin for them and not to disturb them except in the event of a "natural disaster".

Sitting in the cabin, without any ancient people around, the four of them relaxed a bit—mainly Li Changzhou, who was striking a pose.

"What is your mission?" Li Changzhou asked Yaochi.

“I won’t say it, because ‘the Lord’ knows other people’s tasks and can take over their tasks.”

Li Changzhou, who had a guilty conscience, felt that her smile was meaningful. He complained without showing it, "If I can't tell 'the Lord,' can't I tell you?"
