Encountering such weather on the vast ocean, Liuli panicked completely. She didn't know where to go or which direction to fly to escape the wrath of heaven and earth. She had no idea what to do.
A moment later, she took a deep breath and barely managed to calm herself. Just as she was about to summon the Nine-Colored Lotus Platform to protect herself, a golden shadow suddenly broke through the rain and appeared beside her. At this moment, her expression was still very flustered. She looked up and met his gentle eyes, and her heart immediately settled.

Shi Chan flew slowly forward in the torrential rain. The raindrops were so heavy that they pelted the light screen of his seven-jeweled robe with a "pitter-patter" sound. He could not discern directions or see how far away he was, so he could only keep flying forward, hoping to find a place to land.
