Chapter 159 No Parents
Qi Yangui took the token given by Shang Zhiyan, easily passed the guards guarding the Demon Abyss, and walked into the Demon Abyss step by step.
The Demonic Abyss is actually a cliff bottom with a pool of water at the bottom, from which demonic energy emanates. The pool is also divided into three areas: the outer area, the inner area, and the central area.
The demonic energy is most concentrated in the central area.
Qi Yangui walked towards the central area without stopping.
Qi Yangui found a stone to sit on and mobilized the skills in his memory. Countless demonic energy surged into his body, setting off a vortex of demonic energy.
Inside the Demon God Temple, Shang Zhiyan, who was discussing matters with his subordinates, glanced towards the southeast.
"Your Majesty, it's the unusual movement of the Demon Abyss." Rong Lin said.
Cheng Ling said, "I will go and investigate."
"No need, I know what's going on." Shang Zhiyan withdrew his gaze and said, "Continue."
"Your Majesty, the traitors in the Eastern Region have been eliminated." said the Succubus King.
"All the demons found in the western region who were colluding with other races have been cleared out." said the Demon King.
"Southern Region..."

Two years later, in the Sea and Sky Region of the East China Sea.
Song Ningshu clenched her mind and swung out a sword energy filled with icy power, causing the huge tide rushing towards her to freeze for a moment.
Taking advantage of this moment of stagnation, Song Ningshu exerted force on his feet, quickly picked up the child who was about to be swallowed by the tide, and quickly retreated to the side with him.
The tide broke through the ice and continued to roll forward. Countless villages were destroyed and swallowed up in the huge waves.
"Are you okay?" After the tide disappeared, Song Ningshu looked down at the child in her arms and asked.
The child looked about four or five years old. A blue wave mark flashed across his forehead. His blue hair was tied up, his face was chubby, and there were tears of fear in his blue eyes.
"Thank you, sister." The little boy reacted and thanked Song Ningshu with tears in his eyes.
"Where are your parents?" Song Ningshu put him on the ground, squatted down and looked at him at eye level.
"I got separated from them, wuwuwu..." The little boy wiped his tears with his chapped hands and sobbed.
Song Ningshu took out a handkerchief and wiped his tears. She looked at the people around her who had lost their homes and asked, "Is there anyone you know here?"
The little boy looked around and shook his head. "No, we live in the next village. We just fled here today. I don't know anyone here."
"May I have your name?"
"Sang Qi."
"Okay, Xiao Sang Qi, follow me first." Song Ningshu sighed and rubbed his head with her bare hands.
"Thank you, sister."
Song Ningshu took his hand and stood up, "Let's look for your parents around here first."
"Um!"
Song Ningshu took the little guy to search nearby.
This is a very ordinary small fishing village in the East China Sea, and the villagers are all people without any cultivation.
Like humans, some people in the sea tribe also have no spiritual roots and cannot cultivate spiritual power. They generally live in the marginal areas of each sea area and lead ordinary lives. Although it is only a short hundred years, they live freely under the jurisdiction of the sea kings of the sea tribe, and their lives are much better than those of most people in small countries in the secular world of the human race.
Those who lost their homes had sad faces and were looking for their family and friends.
Song Ningshu accompanied Sang Qi in searching for a long time, but they couldn't find his parents.
Sang Qi's mouth flattened, tears welling up in his eyes again. "Sister, I can't find my parents. I know in my heart that they were swept away by the tide in order to protect me."
"I'm just… just deceiving myself that they're still alive."
Tears fell from Sang Qi's eyes.
"They protected you with their lives, hoping that you could survive." Song Ningshu hugged him.
"Yeah!" Sang Qi wiped his tears and forced a smile at her.
"If you don't want to laugh, don't laugh. Children don't need to force themselves to smile." Song Ningshu pinched his face and straightened the curve of his mouth.
"Sister, I am alone now. I don't have parents... wuwuwu..." Sang Qi hugged her and cried loudly.
Song Ningshu's body stiffened, then she patted his back gently, and when he had cried enough, she helped wipe the tears from his face.
After crying, Sang Qi felt a little ashamed for crying so loudly in front of his sister whom he just met.
"Just now I heard someone passing by say that a refugee shelter has been built in the nearby Seagrass City. Are you going there?"
"Sister, can't I follow you?" Sang Qi grabbed the corner of his clothes, looking nervous, with anxiety and caution on his face.
"I'm going to the Royal City, are you sure?"
"I only know you, and I don't know where to go." Sang Qi pursed his lips. "I've heard that in refugee shelters, older children often bully younger ones."
"I won't be staying in the royal city for long. Do you really want to follow me? Besides, I'm not from here. I will eventually leave the East China Sea."
Seeing him silent, Song Ningshu said, "How about this, I'll look out for some kind families along the way. If they want to adopt you, you can settle down there, okay?"
"Okay." Sang Qi agreed. His sister had already done him a great favor by saving him, and he couldn't trouble her anymore.
"Well, let's go to the nearest Seagrass City first."
Song Ningshu remembered the fleeting mark on Sang Qi's forehead not long ago. It seemed as if she had seen it somewhere before, and Sang Qi's face seemed very similar to someone she had met, but she couldn't remember who it was for the time being.
Following the clues from the three pieces of map at the Wood God's Tomb, she sensed that the last piece was in the East Sea Royal City.
"Sister, aren't you from Donghai?" Sang Qi looked at Song Ningshu and asked.
"Yeah." Her hair color was completely different from the people here, so it was no surprise that Sang Qi had such a question.
"So, sister, are you from the South China Sea? I heard from my father that only in the South China Sea are there people with black hair and black eyes."
"No, I'm human."
"Human? What brings me to the East China Sea?"
"Looking for something."
"Oh, sister, why are you wearing a mask?"
“Because it can save a lot of trouble.”
"Oh... Sister, I don't even know your name yet."
"My name is Song Ningshu."
"Song... Ning... Shu?"
"Well, gentleman, please give me some comfort."
Sang Qi: I don’t quite understand, but if I tell her I don’t understand, will my sister think I’m stupid?
Five days later, the two arrived outside the East Sea King City.
The royal city of the sea clan is built around the junction of the four seas, guarding the Sea King Palace in the center like stars surrounding the moon.
After passing the royal city of the East China Sea, you will reach the Palace of the Sea King.
It was dark when the two arrived. Considering that Sang Qi was still young and couldn't sleep in the wilderness, Song Ningshu could only find a village nearby to stay in.
The two stood in front of an upright wooden sign with the words "Gegeli Village" written on it.
"Stay here for one night and go into the city tomorrow." Song Ningshu said to the little guy at his feet.
"Yeah, listen to your sister!" Sang Qi nodded his little head.
"Is anyone there?" Song Ningshu brought Sang Qi into the village, chose a nearby yard, and called out from outside.
Song Ningshu's spiritual sense had already detected the presence of someone inside, and he called out only out of politeness.
"Who is it?" An old voice sounded, and then an old woman walked out of the yard.
The old woman had blue hair and blue eyes, and the wrinkles on her face gave her a kind look.
