When I refused, Feng Su didn't throw a tantrum and insist on following me this time, but accepted it calmly.
You then gave Feng Su a few more instructions on managing the Abyss, and even mentioned that we might not be able to contact each other for a long time, and that we could contact them if there were any problems that we couldn't solve.
Although immortals don't have telephones or similar devices, they possess numerous magical abilities to transmit messages.
After we finished explaining things to Feng Su, we discussed whether we could set off for the Fourth Palace.
The four palaces are located on a small floating island in the East China Sea, so small that even immortals would find it difficult to locate them, let alone mortals.
You and I had been there before, so we knew the way. This time, it was an invitation from the God, so the barrier had no effect on us.
You and I were focused on getting to the Fourth Palace as quickly as possible, and the places we went were teeming with life, so we didn't get to experience the chaos and terror that Feng Su had described.
Today, the East China Sea is vast and the sky is high. Under the blue sky and white clouds, the sea appears even more azure, and the waves tirelessly pound the rocks on the shore.
You and I walked along the coast. The sun at the beach was even more scorching. I even wanted to wear a hat. Looking at my fair skin under the sun, I even wondered if I should apply some sunscreen.
"Xin'er, haven't you been on a boat in a long time?" You took my hand, bent down, and stirred her hand in the sea.
“Yes.” I nodded. “You don’t want me to take a boat, do you?” I looked at You with some surprise.
"Mmm." You squatted on the beach, raised her head and gave me a bright smile.
"But shouldn't we hurry to the Fourth Palace?"
"What's the rush?" You smiled brightly, her fair skin gleaming in the sunlight. "There's still plenty of time until tomorrow."
I glanced at the scorching sun in the sky; it was indeed still early.
"Great! It's been a long time since I've been on a boat." I smiled and squatted down. Just then, a wave crashed over us, and I flicked my hand to splash water at You.
Her fair face shone even brighter with the seawater, the droplets shimmering in the sunlight as if radiating iridescent colors.
You chuckled softly, and with a slight flick of her hand that was submerged in the seawater, I thought she was going to splash me with water and quickly dodged backward, only to find that I was overthinking it. The water splashed out by You transformed into an ice boat on the sea surface.
Even from a distance, I could feel the slight chill emanating from the ice ship, but it wasn't cold at all; in fact, it felt even cooler under the blazing sun.
"I saw you were hot, so I made an ice boat. Are you satisfied? If not, I'll get another one."
"Satisfied, satisfied."
I couldn't wait to step onto the ice ship. I thought the inside of the ice ship would be as hard as it looked from the outside, but I didn't expect that You had already laid out blankets everywhere. Everything was soft and comfortable, and we could lie down or sit. During the day, You and I could sit on the ship and enjoy the sea view, and at night, we could lie in bed and enjoy the night sky.
Wow, I'm absolutely thrilled!
You followed me onto the boat. The small boat, controlled by You, had already been enchanted and drifted out to sea towards the island where the Four Palaces were located.
You embraced me as we sat down, and with a wave of her hand, she added a layer of light gauze to the top of the boat, as if to keep me from getting too hot in the sun.
Although the waves were large, not a single drop of seawater penetrated the boat. You had created a barrier to prevent water from wetting the interior. As they moved further from the shore, the sea gradually calmed down.
The small boat sailed slowly on the sea. I watched the sea view with excitement for a while, then felt a little sleepy and fell asleep in the warm embrace.
In my dream, the sound of the waves kept gently singing in my ears, like a lullaby.
When I woke up again, the sky was just beginning to darken, and the starlight filled my eyes.
I was awestruck by the beauty of nature and was completely mesmerized.
"You, this star is so beautiful."
"We'll look at it often from now on," You said, putting her arm around me as we admired the starry sky together.
The sound of waves could be heard, and a sea breeze didn't feel cold.
After a long while, I suddenly woke up and remembered the important matter. I sat up and looked around at the sea, not knowing how far away the four palaces were.
"You, are we almost there at the Fourth Palace?"
"Soon." You pulled me back to lie down. "I'll be on time tomorrow, don't worry, I won't be late."
You pulled me close and whispered in my ear, making my ear feel a little itchy.
"That's good." I replied softly, and stopped dwelling on the issue, continuing to gaze at the starry sky.
Back when I was in Heaven, I rarely looked at the starry sky like this.
"You, if only we could stay this peaceful forever."
I looked at the twinkling stars; the sky was peaceful. I wondered when the days of busy work between You and me would end.
"That day will come." You gently kissed my cheek. "Afterwards, we'll have a baby, and then the three of us will live a simple and happy life together every day, okay?"
"Hmm?" I turned my head to look at You. "Why is it a baby?"
I thought the secret rendezvous was about having more children.
"One is enough, I'm afraid it will hurt you."
I was so embarrassed that I couldn't speak, and just nestled in You's arms.
"Sleep a little longer, we're almost there, then we won't be able to rest anymore," You patted my back to comfort me.
"good."
I nodded, but I had just woken up, and it wasn't so easy for me to fall asleep again so easily.
But Yu patiently patted my back again and again, and I actually fell asleep.
"Go to sleep, I'll wake you when we get there."
Before I lost consciousness, I vaguely heard this sentence.
"Xin'er, Xin'er." I vaguely heard someone calling me as I was sleeping.
"Hmm?" I opened my eyes groggily, then suddenly remembered something. "Have we arrived at the Fourth Prince's Palace?"
"Mm." You nodded slightly.
I rubbed my eyes, slowly regaining consciousness. As I sat up from the boat, I saw a small island floating in the air not far away.
The sky was dark at that moment, neither fully light nor dim.
I breathed a sigh of relief; I had indeed arrived at my destination on time.
"Xin'er, I'll take you up." You reached out her hand to me, wanting to take me with her.
"No need, I can do it myself." I climbed off the boat, declined You's offer, and with a slight effort, flew towards the island in the sky.
You lowered her head and smiled faintly, not caring, and followed me onto the island.
There was no one on the island. After You and I got on the island, we looked around and everything was exactly the same as the scenery in my memory.
As I was looking around and admiring the scenery, a small figure suddenly appeared in front of me with a stern face and said, "Nü Xin, Di Jun, please come with me. My master has been waiting for you for a long time."
I glanced at the little girl in front of me, who looked like a doll, and knew that she was the attendant that the deity had transformed into through magic.
"Okay." I nodded slightly and followed behind the girl.
The paths on the island are not complicated; after all, with the power of the deity, those who are not welcome would not even be seen, let alone casually come to the island.
