The scouts brought news that Bian Lang and his men had appeared above the Great Rift Valley, which truly shocked all the aquatic creatures.
They had all hidden here, but they still couldn't escape Bian Lang's pursuit.
Upon learning that Shangguan Hongyu was also there, Ao Ju secretly ran away, waiting for an opportunity to act.
Upon seeing Bian Lang go into the water, Ao Ju could no longer contain himself and planned to capture Shangguan Hongyu to force Bian Lang to commit suicide.
Without a doubt, this was the last chance that Heaven had given to the aquatic creatures of the four seas.
Shangguan Hongyu was in a good mood. She never expected that coming along would lead to such a big catch. She chuckled and said, "So, little puppy, are you planning to capture me to threaten my husband?"
“You keep calling me ‘husband,’ aren’t you ashamed?” Ao Ju scolded.
Shangguan Hongyu said, "Our marriage was arranged by our parents and the matchmaker. We've already paid our respects to heaven and earth and entered the bridal chamber. It's only natural. What's there to be ashamed of?"
“What’s so arrogant about a mere demon?” Ao Ju said as he lunged at Shangguan Hongyu.
Shangguan Hongyu teased, "I am a vine that transformed into a human, and you are a little dragon that transformed into a human. To put it bluntly, we are both demons."
At this moment, Ao Ju didn't care what Shangguan Hongyu was saying; he only wanted to take down Shangguan Hongyu as soon as possible and end all of this.
They can save themselves without waiting for the mercy of heaven, and that is the most wonderful thing.
But as Ao Ju approached Shangguan Hongyu, he suddenly sensed an unprecedented danger.
Although he found it strange, Ao Ju still didn't want to miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Transformed into a flying dragon, it only circled once in the air before unleashing an incredibly terrifying speed.
Shangguan Hongyu simply stood at the bow of the boat, a smile on her face, as if she didn't take Ao Ju seriously at all.
On the contrary, the sailors were all hiding in the cabin out of fear. They didn't even dare to peek, as if the dragon would take their lives if they did.
Shangguan Hongyu didn't intend to hide it; it didn't matter if the sailors saw it.
Now that she has stepped down from the throne, it doesn't matter if the world knows she is a vine demon.
In an instant, thousands upon thousands of blood vines suddenly appeared on her body.
Each blood vine seemed to have eyes, swiftly piercing towards Ao Ju.
The blood vines made a whooshing sound as they tore through the air, like a powerful crossbow bolt, which was extremely eerie.
Ao Ju finally understood where his unease and fear came from.
The moment He saw those blood vines, He opened His mouth and spewed out dragon flames.
Then, to His utter surprise, His dragon flames struck the blood vine, but failed to burn it.
Before he could react, countless blood vines had already tightly bound Ao Ju's massive dragon body.
Even Long Yan couldn't handle the vines, and now that he was completely bound, Ao Ju was even more unable to break free.
Shangguan Hongyu said disdainfully, "The Crown Prince of the West Sea Dragon Palace seems to be less fierce than a dog."
The victor is king, the loser is villain. No matter what Shangguan Hongyu says now, Ao Ju can only silently endure it.
Even if he were to say something incredibly fierce now, it would just sound like empty boasting and a joke.
Shangguan Hongyu added, "It seems I need to tell my husband so he knows we have some leverage."
Ao Ju was filled with regret, but there was nothing he could do.
Even when He transformed into human form again, the blood vines clung to Him tightly, without letting up in the slightest.
Unexpectedly, the prince of the West Sea Dragon Palace couldn't even defeat a monster.
Losing might not be so shameful, but the fact that the defeat was so egregious that it was utterly futile.
...
The temperature at the bottom of the sea is extremely low.
Hei Wushui was always worried that Bian Lang would get cold, but every time he looked back, he saw that Bian Lang was in very good condition.
In fact, He didn't need to worry about Bian Lang at all. With Bian Lang's strength, even if he went to a place that was colder and more dangerous than this, he wouldn't have any problems.
"Boss, it's just ahead." Hei Wushui was very nervous at this moment.
With just Him and Bian Lang, they had to contend with the entire aquatic race of the Four Seas. No matter how powerful Bian Lang was, it seemed like they were doomed.
Bian Lang said, "Su Er doesn't look well."
Perhaps due to being soaked in seawater for too long, Su Er's body looked quite swollen.
Especially Su Er's eyes, which were round and bulging, terrifying and disgusting.
“Boss, you should be more concerned about our current situation,” Hei Wushui joked.
As they spoke, they had already appeared at the edge of the Great Rift Valley.
Standing on the seabed and looking ahead, the great rift valley is bottomless, and the opposite shore is nowhere in sight.
The seawater surged in the rift valley, making a sound like the wailing of ghosts and wolves, which was extremely eerie.
“All the aquatic creatures are at the bottom,” said Kuroko.
Bian Lang frowned and asked, "Don't they set up defenses around here?"
“Yes…” Hei Wushui’s eyes widened suddenly.
When He enters or leaves this place, not only at the edge of the Great Rift Valley, but also far away, there are aquatic sentries everywhere, and any slight disturbance will be detected.
But now that they've come all this way without encountering any obstacles, it can only mean that the aquatic creatures discovered them long ago and did nothing, letting them come this far, possibly setting up a trap here.
On land, even if all four Dragon Kings of the Seas were alive, they might not be able to defeat Bian Lang even if they joined forces.
However, in this deep sea, the strength of the aquatic creatures will be amplified, while the strength of the edge waves will inevitably be weakened.
The presence of one strong and one weak player could significantly narrow the gap in strength between them.
The addition of traps and other external forces made their situation even more perilous.
Bian Lang remained calm and said loudly, "This visit is not to cause trouble, but to deliver a corpse to you. Please come out and sign for it."
