Jiuquanjie
Gazing at the names on the roster in his hand, the ink gradually fading, Yan Ligu raised an eyebrow slightly and sighed softly, "The calamity begins and fate ends; in the end, all these calamities could not escape the arrangement of fate..."
Raising her eyes, her gaze fell on the peach blossom jade hairpin placed to the side, and she couldn't help but smile. "Gu Liyan, this compass of fate has stopped because of you. Will your own time also stop because of this...?"
All unknown destinies arise from calamities and end with causes!
——
The sea was vast, with patches of dark clouds shrouding the East China Sea, accompanied by raging sea winds, like the harbinger of an impending storm, reminding all living beings to stay away from this roaring sea.
All of this is unsettling.
When Li Nezha arrived at this place, he looked at the mysterious ocean that he could not see through or understand with a blank expression, and was immediately at a loss.
"My master told me to come to the East Sea to get the Dragon Pearl, but he didn't tell me where it was or what it looked like! The East Sea is so big, how am I supposed to find it?"
(You left without asking any questions!)
Li Nezha thought for a long time and also patrolled the East Sea for a long time, but he still couldn't find any clues.
Waiting like this isn't a solution, so Li Nezha simply jumped into the sea. Since there were no clues at sea, he decided to search underwater first!
The world in the sea surprised Li Nezha. He never expected that what he saw as a black ocean outside was actually a light blue one inside.
Countless fish curiously observed him from all sides, showing no fear whatsoever towards this human, which thrilled Li Nezha.
The ocean is undoubtedly the world with the oldest civilization, because in this isolated world, there is the most mysterious race—the sea people!
Li Nezha plunged three thousand feet into the sea and felt that he was running out of oxygen. He became anxious, but he couldn't go back empty-handed since he hadn't completed the task assigned by Mo Chen!
If he goes back empty-handed, Mo Chen will beat him to death!
Glug—
Nezha's face turned red, and the oxygen in his body was becoming increasingly scarce. He was even considering whether to return to the shore. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly noticed that the air at the bottom of the sea was becoming increasingly dense, and there was even light shining into the sea!
"Whoosh—" Just as Nezha was running out of oxygen, a powerful gravitational force pulled him into the glowing abyss—
Splash—
"Huff..." Li Nezha surfaced, greedily inhaling the oxygen from the outside world. "I almost... I almost suffocated here!"
Nezha climbed ashore, collapsed on the ground, panting heavily. Just as he was recovering from his shock, he suddenly realized that there was someone next to him!
No!
It shouldn't be called a person, but rather a beautiful mermaid!
She had a long, golden, fish-scale-like tail that shimmered in the sunlight, and even her beautiful face sparkled with golden starlight.
"So beautiful!" Li Nezha exclaimed subconsciously.
"Ah—" Xingyu exclaimed in surprise when she saw Li Nezha's unusual attire.
Li Nezha was startled and politely said, "Hello, beautiful young lady, I'm not a bad person. Please don't call out to me, okay? It's bothering me—"
Xingyu was so frightened that she immediately hid to the side.
Li Nezha couldn't help but sigh. If you were on land, you'd probably be the real monster!
Before Li Nezha could explain, his ears twitched as he heard footsteps. He immediately leaped into the water again.
Xingyu looked at Li Nezha, who had retreated back into the water, with surprise. He hadn't run away; instead, he had hidden himself.
This mysterious race of creatures is truly brave!
Filled with curiosity and admiration, Xingyu turned her gaze to the belatedly arriving guard team.
A group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals wielding giant fish bones as weapons approached. The leader of the shrimp soldiers looked around but found nothing unusual. He asked in confusion, "Princess, what's going on here?"
Xingyu waved her hand wearily and said, "It's nothing, I just... I just had a nightmare and was woken up. You guys go back..."
Li Nezha hid in the water, looking at the golden figure, somewhat puzzled. Why would she lie and hide her existence?
"Princess, you should rest well. I shall take my leave."
With the shrimp soldiers and crab generals gone, Xingyu finally breathed a sigh of relief and turned to Li Nezha, who was hiding in the water, and said, "They're gone, you can come out now."
Li Nezha popped his head out and looked at Xingyu with a puzzled expression, asking, "Why didn't you tell them I was in the water?"
Xingyu bent down, reached out her right hand and pulled Li Nezha ashore, saying with an arrogant expression, "This is my palace. How could I trust those people who have stayed in my palace for so long?"
Li Nezha couldn't help but smile. "Although I don't understand the situation, and you look a bit strange, according to my master, anyone who has no ill intentions towards you, regardless of their race, can be called a good person!"
Hearing Li Nezha say that, Xingyu took a closer look at him. His black pupils were innocent and pure, his skin was fair and smooth like jade, and with his sunny and handsome boyish face, plus the tone of his voice just now, he was really cute!
Xingyu pouted and said unhappily, "If you ask me, you're the one who looks weird. Look at your hands and feet, they're the same! And your legs don't even have armor to protect them. You're really an oddball!"
Li Nezha rolled his eyes and said helplessly, "Who told us humans all to look like this? My master said it's human blood! My good looks come from my mother, and my master's good looks come from his charm!"
