Chapter 185 Rhett Butler's Skeleton



The next instant, Jenny appeared in the sea.

She swam desperately toward a certain spot on the seabed.

It was incredibly fast, like a streak of blue light.

Faster, faster...

Finally, a giant ship that had sunk to the bottom of the sea appeared before them.

"Uncle Bai, a giant black dragon is attacking! It's going to kill my mom and my aunts and uncles! Please go and save them..."

Jenny rushed into the giant ship, shouted this sentence, and then collapsed on the deck, exhausted.

A pure white skeleton strode out; it was none other than Rhett Butler, the "Uncle White" Jenny had mentioned.

He was also the owner of this giant ship, the Lan Ying.

Many years ago, Rhett Butler sailed the Lan Ying to Purple Sweet Potato Island.

As a result, the Lan Ying encountered a disaster at sea and sank to the bottom of the sea.

Rhett Butler died.

Perhaps because his obsession from his previous life had not subsided, his soul had not dissipated and remained trapped on the Lan Ying.

Until one day, the Lan Ying became a spirit.

It became a "ghost ship".

Rhett Butler's remains on the ship also became spiritualized, turning into a skeleton that was alive even though it was dead.

Jenny is a restless person who loves to play around.

He ended up on the Lan Ying ship by chance and met Rhett Butler.

At first, she was startled by Rhett Butler's bony frame, but as she got to know him better, she began to take the initiative to be close to him.

Jenny would come to visit him from time to time, telling him all sorts of interesting things that happened to her.

Rhett Butler also told Jenny a lot about things on the ground.

Over time, the skeleton and the mermaid actually became good friends.

After hearing so much about what happened on the surface of the earth, Jenny couldn't help but feel a longing to see how the people there actually lived.

She told Rhett Butler about her plans.

Rhett Butler knew that simply stopping her wouldn't change her mind, so he figured he might as well let her go and see.

He gave her a lot of self-defense items and asked her to help him find out what was happening on the ground before letting her go.

He then covered for her in front of Huang Ying, saying that Jenny was playing at his place.

In this way, Jenny successfully reached the ground.

That's why Huang Ying always thought her daughter was with Bai Ruide, so she sent her a message asking her to ask Bai Ruide for help.

Rhett Butler knelt down and picked Jenny up, finding that she was alright, just exhausted, and was relieved.

Immediately, the Lan Ying was propelled toward the territory of the Merfolk.

Deep in the ocean lies a crystal mountain, within which grows a forest of pearls.

A group of mermaids lived in the forest.

At this moment, Huang Ying, the chief of the merfolk clan, together with the other adult merfolk in the clan, erected a barrier to protect their territory.

Outside the barrier, a massive black dragon, like a black sky, loomed over Crystal Mountain.

The black dragon kept attacking the barrier, trying to break in.

Under the black dragon's powerful attack, the seven-colored barrier was like a fragile bubble, ready to burst at any moment.

"puff!"

As the main force supporting the barrier, Huang Ying was the first to bear the brunt and spat out a mouthful of blood.

She didn't bother wiping herself, and once again overdrawn her internal energy, injecting it into the barrier.

The others were no better off than her; they were all at their last gasp.

The barrier will break after a maximum of 10 seconds.

Ten seconds passed in a flash.

Huang Ying glanced outside but didn't see Bai Ruide arrive, and a look of despair flashed in her eyes.

A string of glistening tears slid down her cheek.

The black dragon roared in, shaking its head and wagging its tail. A mountain peak was grazed by its tail and snapped in half.

In the pearl forest, pearl fruits fell from the trees, hitting the crystal mountain with a tinkling sound.

The group of merfolk trembled under the suppression of the dragon's might.

Huang Ying ordered, "Scatter and run away quickly! I'll hold it off!"

They charged forward, ready to fight the Black Dragon to the death.

However, the black dragon grabbed her with one claw.

"Hand over the mermaid pearl."

The black dragon's voice was deep and resonant, like rolling thunder, making Huang Ying unconsciously want to submit.

This is the oppressive aura emanating from the bloodline of the dragon race!

Huang Ying bit her tongue, forcing herself to stay awake.

The mermaid pearl is the essence of a mermaid's life and cultivation. Without it, she would immediately lose all her cultivation and her life.

How can I hand it over?

Fortunately, the mermaid pearls can only be handed over voluntarily by the women themselves; no one can force them to do so.

Even if the Black Dragon killed her and crushed her body inch by inch, he still wouldn't be able to find her!

"You...don't...think about it."

The black dragon snorted and was about to crush her to death with one claw.

"Mother!"

A sharp, childish cry rang out.

The Lan Ying has arrived.

As soon as the black dragon turned its head, it saw a dark, dilapidated ship crashing into it.

Like a comet colliding with a blue star.

Hmph, overestimating yourself.

It remained still, waiting for the Lan Ying to come in front of it, before slapping it with its tail.

In its mind, the wrecked ship would surely not be able to withstand its blow and would be torn to pieces on the spot.

The result was that its tail didn't even touch the ship!

He passed right through!

But the wrecked ship rammed into it, sending it flying.

Black Dragon: Damn! What's with that wrecked ship?

Why can't I hit it, but it can hit me?

Black Dragon found the merman in his hands an obstacle, so he threw her away and attacked the wrecked ship again.

It refused to believe in superstition!

The rule after Lan Ying's spiritual transformation is that it can travel through spaces of different dimensions.

For example, traveling from three-dimensional space to four-dimensional space.

When the black dragon slapped its tail, the Lan Ying instantly traveled into four-dimensional space.
