"Such a big thing, I must have watched it! I also watched the entire Global Advanced Awakener Academy Competition. That Lin Tianming is really amazing. I thought he would definitely become the strongest in the future, but I didn't expect him to be attacked by a monster and died on the plane back to Kyushu. It's such a pity!"
"My Black Thunder God, he was so strong and handsome, but I didn't expect him to die young... So sad... When I saw the news about his death... I cried all night!"
“It is said that Black Thunder God was attacked by a top-level monster on his way back to Jiuzhou. Because the space on the plane was small, even if there were top-level awakeners, they didn’t dare to use their full strength for fear of a plane crash. Lin Tianming saved several Jiuzhou students in succession, but he didn’t expect to be captured by the monster... Jiuzhou officials searched the sea and sky near where he died for three days and three nights, but found nothing. In the end, they could only declare him dead!”
"There has been no movement for three days and three nights... He must have died... He was ten thousand meters high... and was captured by a top-level monster... He must be gone... What a pity... This generation of genius has fallen just like that!"
Lin Tianming fought with the top monster, the Demon Feather Eagle Man, and finally fell into the sea on the third day. Because the search and rescue was fruitless, the Kyushu officials finally had no choice but to announce the news of his death.
For a time, this news shocked the world.
Most people were mourning the death of Lin Tianming, the first place winner of the global competition.
But there are also a very small number of people who are gloating, thinking that there is one less person who may threaten their position in the future.
Sakura Island, White Whale Port.
Lianghua stayed alone on the unnoticed coast for three days and three nights.
During these three days and three nights, she was constantly checking the news related to Lin Tianming.
She also became much more haggard because of this.
Since the first day Lin Tianming was killed, she has been following all the search and rescue news for him.
But today, the Jiuzhou officials’ search and rescue efforts were fruitless and Lin Tianming was announced dead.
"Why is this happening...Ming Jun...We clearly agreed to meet at the Imperial Academy in the capital in a week...Why..."
Hot tears filled her red and swollen eyes. Lianghua found it hard to accept the news that Lin Tianming had died.
"It shouldn't be like this... In the previous life, Mingjun didn't die so early... I wanted to go to Jiuzhou in a week and follow him to protect him, but I didn't expect that his death in this life would be advanced..."
Ryoka sobbed while gazing at the sea in the dark night.
"How I wish you were not dead... and would come back to me on this moonlit night on the sea..."
She talked to herself, saying some unrealistic words.
At this moment, an ethereal sound came from the deep sea area in the distance.
This ethereal sound, like the singing of the sea, is beautiful and pleasant to the ears, making the listeners feel relaxed and happy.
"This is... the voice of the Sea King!"
As soon as she heard the voice, Ryoka recognized it as the voice of the Sea Emperor.
At this moment, she also recalled the origin of White Whale Port.
The Sea Emperor, although he is the guardian of the Kyushu waters.
But it sometimes comes to Sakurajima.
And this White Whale Port is the only port on Sakura Island that the Sea King has visited.
Because the beautiful shape of Poseidon is very similar to that of a white whale, this port is named White Whale Port.
It means a port favored by the Sea King.
Although it is an extremely happy thing to see the Sea King who rarely comes to Sakura Island.
But when she thought about the boy she loved most, who died young just like in her previous life, Lianghua's pretty face was still filled with sadness.
Under the moonlight, the beautiful pure white figure of the Poseidon leaped out from beneath the sea, and then re-entered the water in a perfect and graceful posture.
"Guardian of this sea...it would be great if you could bring back the boy I want to see most in my dreams..."
"What am I fantasizing about?"
As soon as she made an unrealistic wish to the Sea Emperor, Ryoka smiled at herself.
She continued to look at the sea and found that the back of the sea king was exposed above the sea and was getting closer to her.
Under Lianghua's somewhat puzzled gaze, Poseidon continued to float on his back above the sea and swam towards the coast.
And as the Poseidon got closer and closer to Lianghua, she saw that there seemed to be a person lying on its back.
"There seems to be someone lying on the back of the Sea King... Does it... does it want me to pick up the person on its back?"
As if hearing Lianghua's murmur, the Sea Emperor made another ethereal sound in response.
The Sea King stopped at an area close to the port and did not move any closer.
Lianghua hesitated for a moment, but still left the shore and ran quickly towards the increasingly deeper sea water.
Soon, she came in front of the Sea King.
"Can I go up?"
Lianghua asked Poseidon with some trepidation.
Even in Donghai City, Kyushu, she had never been in such close contact with the Sea Emperor, so she was a little afraid that her behavior would offend the Sea Emperor.
The sea king nodded and allowed her to climb on its back and take away the person lying there.
With the permission of the Sea King, Lianghua was curious about who was on its back, so she climbed directly onto its back.
The moment she climbed up, she was stunned.
"This is……"
As she looked on in disbelief, she saw the young man she had been dreaming about lying on the back of the Sea King.
"Ming Jun? He...he is not dead?"
This young man is Lin Tianming!
But at this moment, he is in a deep sleep.
"I...I miss you so much...I am hallucinating, right?"
Unable to believe her eyes, Lianghua rubbed her red eyes from crying and moved closer to the boy to continue watching carefully.
After looking at it again and again for a long time, it was still the handsome young man's face that she was so familiar with. Lianghua gradually believed that she was not hallucinating.
This is all true! He... is really not dead! At this moment, Lianghua's beautiful eyes were once again filled with tears.
This time, it was tears of joy.
She sat on the back of the Sea King, holding Lin Tianming in her arms and burying him in her chest.
"Ming Jun... That's great... It's really great that you're still alive!"
After hugging Lin Tianming and crying for a long time, Lianghua's emotions, which had been crying with joy, gradually calmed down.
Thinking that it was the Sea Emperor who saved Lin Tianming, Lianghua immediately thanked him: "Sea Emperor, thank you for saving Mingjun, and for hearing my longing for him and bringing him to my side!"
The Sea King also made an ethereal sound in response.
There was no need for Lianghua to personally lead Lin Tianming back to the coast. The Sea Emperor enveloped them both with his beautiful pure white light and sent them slowly back to the coast.
Then, the Sea King made an elegant leap under the moonlight and headed towards the deepest part of the sea.
Looking at the beautiful figure of the Poseidon disappearing into the moonlight, Lianghua, who had already returned to the shore, was filled with gratitude and respect.
She bowed reverently to the Poseidon.
"Thank you for fulfilling my wish, Lord Poseidon!"
