"They destroyed the island's protective barrier and attracted vengeful spirits from the sea. They are a nuisance! Drive them out!"
The islanders surrounded the entire courtyard with sticks and weapons, shouting that they wanted to drive them out.
"Foreigners are always shameless. They must be trying to steal divine power, angering the Sea God and punishing him!"
"Drive them out and ask the Sea God for forgiveness!"
"Drive the foreigners out, drive them out!"
They kept shouting outside.
Cao Shuangying and others blocked the door with serious expressions.
"Dongwu is protected by the Lord God of Chaoyang. Who would be interested in your little power?"
"If your young master hadn't invited us here, who would come to your remote place..."
The deputy general and a few others had a heated argument with the islanders.
There were a few people behind them holding them back from hitting each other.
"Ha..." Rong Chaoxi yawned loudly.
"Chaoxi, if you're sleepy, go to sleep for a while." Rong Yubai put clothes on the little guy.
"What happened to them?" asked the little guy.
"I heard that a vengeful spirit attacked Xumi Island last night. All the families were in trouble, but we are the only one who is safe." Rong Yubai said.
"Don't listen to their excuses, everyone, kick them out..."
At this moment, fighting suddenly broke out downstairs.
Although our side has high combat power, the other side has people who can use supernatural powers. Our swords and knives are suppressed by them, so we can only use fists and feet.
After a few moves, he was defeated.
“These people are so rude!”
Rong Chaoxi stood on the upper floor with his hands on his hips, shouting, "Stop! If you fight again, I'll turn you all into fish!"
But it was too noisy downstairs and no one heard the cry of a little baby.
Rong Chaoxi yelled a few more times, but finally, unable to endure it any longer, he casually raised his hand...
There were only a few "bang bang bang" sounds, followed by a burst of white smoke, and then everyone outside disappeared.
…
When Hai Yan heard the news, he rushed over despite his unbandaged injuries.
There were no islanders causing trouble. Only Chaoxi and others were seen eating breakfast, looking as if they were not disturbed.
He breathed a sigh of relief, "Chao Xi, are you okay?"
"It's okay, Yan Zi, come and have dinner." Rong Chaoxi greeted warmly.
Hai Yan sat down to eat as he was told. Rong Yubai sent someone to bring him some medicine to treat his wounds.
"Was it serious last night?" he asked. "Why didn't you come and call us?"
"It happened suddenly..." Hai Yan said, "You're tired from the journey, so I didn't want to disturb you."
"Don't worry, someone is just injured, it's not serious, we can handle it ourselves."
He looked at Chaoxi, somewhat hesitant.
Rong Yubai said, "Just say what you want to say."
"Although your people are not very good, we recognize you as a friend. If you need anything, just let us know."
"I..." Hai Yan pursed his lips and looked at Rong Chaoxi.
"The barrier protecting the island is broken. The vengeful spirit entered through the breach last night. Could you please help repair it?"
Xumi Island has remained stable for thousands of years because of the barrier.
The vengeful spirits attacked suddenly last night without any preparation. Although no one died, most people were seriously injured.
"You can repel the evil spirits, why can't you repair the barrier?" Rong Chaoxi asked.
"..." Hai Yan frowned slightly, "To be honest, we didn't fight them off..."
Last night everyone fought with all their might, and Hai Yan, as the young master, naturally bore the brunt of the attack.
Just as a mermaid was about to deal a fatal blow to him, a phantom singing suddenly came from the seashore.
The mermaid was stunned for a moment, and after listening for a while, it left with the vengeful spirits.
"Singing?" Chen Ji asked curiously, "Is it the same as what we heard that day at sea?"
Hai Yan nodded, "Very similar, just more immature."
Rong Chaoxi raised his head and blinked, as if thinking of something, and asked, "Where are the big and the second ball?"
Speaking of this, Hai Yan smiled and said:
"They've hatched and are now on the beach to the south."
"I'll take you over there later. They'll definitely be happy to see you."
"Yeah." Rong Chaoxi nodded with a smile.
[Could those two mermaids be the parents of Big Ball and Little Ball? I'll ask them later...]
While on the boat, the mermaid said that they had stolen her child.
Rong Yubai frowned slightly when he heard this.
"Chaoxi, do you want to repair the barrier?" he asked.
Judging from the situation when the Houchao people came to cause trouble just now, Hai Yan was caught in the middle and it must be difficult for him to do anything.
"Okay, I'll fix it when I go to watch the Big Ball 2 game later." Rong Chaoxi nodded in agreement.
Hai Yan was finally able to relax his whole body and eat heartily.
"By the way, why is there a pile of clothes there?" He looked at the corner at the entrance of the yard.
That pair of clothes is not theirs, it seems to be... the style of clothes of the post-chao people.
Suddenly, Hai Yan's right eyelid twitched wildly. He covered his right eye and looked at Rong Yubai.
Rong Yubai touched his nose awkwardly, "Those are... the clothes of your people..."
Hai Yan: ???
He swallowed a mouthful of soup and asked carefully, "Chao Xi...did you get it from someone else's house?"
After Hai Yan left Dongwu, he often communicated with Rong Yubai.
Last April, their family went to a Buddhist temple. Chaoxi took a fancy to other people's cushions and stole more than a dozen of them without anyone noticing.
They just arrived last night, and this morning there were so many clothes from the post-trend tribe, it must be...
If he even dares to steal Buddha’s things, what else would the little guy not dare to do?
If they like it, he will naturally prepare new ones. How can he steal something that someone else has worn?
"If you like them, I'll have a few new ones made right away. These..."
"Ah, no, no..." Rong Yubai waved his hands hurriedly, "Come with me."
Take him to a large water tank.
There are small fish of various colors and species swimming in it.
As soon as they saw Hai Yan, they swarmed over and wagged their tails at him.
"These fish are too small to eat." He thought they wanted to eat fish, so he went to catch some himself.
"I'll send you some sea fish later."
Hai Yan wiped a sweat from his forehead. They had only been here for half a day, and how much had they done?
This place is halfway up the mountain, not close to the sea.
Hearing that he had misunderstood again, Rong Yubai said apologetically: "These... are your people."
Hai Yan: “???”
After hearing what happened before he came, Hai Yan almost fell to the ground.
He is indeed a God. Turning people into animals is just a matter of raising his hand.
The desire to become Chaoxi's apprentice has become even stronger!
After breakfast, the little guy wants to go out and play.
"Chaoxi, please change them back." Hai Yan begged.
They all have families, and if they haven't seen them for a long time, someone will worry.
"Okay." Rong Chaoxi raised his arm, but was held down by someone the next moment.
"Wait!" Rong Yubai said urgently, "Everyone, turn around and don't look."
Turn the little guy over as well, "Okay."
Rong Chaoxi then raised his hand and snapped his fingers.
The next moment, an earth-shaking scream erupted in the courtyard halfway up the mountain.
And a group of white-haired people running around.
