Chapter 69 How many times have I said it?
Miya was still young and didn't remember how she came to be on the ghost ship.
His sister Ariel remembered it clearly.
The brother and sister are a kind of strange beast called a spirit leopard, which is not the same as the black panther commonly known in reality.
Spirit leopards were graded according to their coats and patterns. Pure black, without a single stray hair like their siblings, was considered the highest grade, pureblooded spirit leopards. Even in the chaotic and sinful hell, they were coveted treasures.
Their parents were killed to protect them. Ariel, who was also scarred, fled far away with her young brother, but still could not shake off the greedy pursuers.
Until Ariel, in a panic, came to this black coast.
The Sea of Sin is the place where the gods have sealed the most serious sins, and even demons and monsters dare not enter easily.
No one knows who is imprisoned here.
It is said that he is an unforgivable villain who has angered God and violated the laws of heaven, and has been sealed here for hundreds of years.
With wolves in front and tigers behind, Ariel was also hesitant.
Once I was captured, I knew what would happen to me. I was destined to be tortured to death; my brother would not be able to live a good life either.
What if...jump in?
Leopards are good at water and can breathe in water for up to two days. Swimming and diving are not difficult for them.
However, once you enter the sea of sin, it is difficult to get out.
This is a barrier sealed by the God of Gods himself. Even the big devil inside can't get out, let alone these small fry like them.
Even if the big devil inside showed mercy and didn't kill them, it would mean that they would never be able to leave the sea of sin again.
Ariel didn't have much time to make up her mind. Seeing the hunters she had left behind surrounded her again, their eyes shining, and they were sure they didn't dare to go into the sea, she closed her eyes and made up her mind, holding her brother and went into the black, boiling sea.
Even if I drowned before reaching the shore for more than two days, or was eaten alive by the big devil inside, it would be better than being treated as a plaything and tortured to death by these bastards.
When Ariel jumped into the sea, she almost thought she was going to die.
Unexpectedly, she was rescued by Zechariah, who let her and her brother live peacefully on the ghost ship, treating them to good food and drink. The only thing they had to do was to occasionally clean up the headless flies that accidentally trespassed.
Apart from the fact that life was a bit boring after a hundred years of the same day, the Lingbao siblings couldn't ask for more to be able to live safely and with dignity.
They are deeply grateful to their lord.
In fact, Ariel is not her real name.
She wanted to forget all the hurt she had suffered in the past and start anew in her life.
Zechariah named her Ariel.
As for why the name he chose, "Ariel", was so similar to the "Oriel" that belonged to the gods, and why the noble gods and the filthy demons had such an amazing tacit understanding, she didn't know and didn't dare to think about it.
All these little things were part of the dull past that the two children running wildly on the deck were unaware of.
Although Miya is not yet an adult, his speed, explosive power and endurance have reached a level that ordinary people and animals cannot match.
The deck looked hundreds of meters long, but it took only a blink of an eye to stretch from one end to the other.
"Cat runs so fast!"
"Humph, how can a cat be that fast? I can only be that fast because I'm a leopard."
Even the towering mast can be reached vertically to the top with just a light leap by the Black Panther.
"Can cats climb trees?"
"I'm not a cat, I'm a panther!"
Riding a black panther and riding a big white bird are completely different experiences.
The little god's loneliness and depression in the past few days were quickly forgotten.
He screamed excitedly as the leopard leaped, but his voice was swallowed by the sea breeze.
"Cat—cat—"
"It's a leopard—leopard—ah—"
Mia, who became the mount, not only did not feel humiliated by being ordered around by a three-year-old kid, but was particularly happy because she had a playmate of the same age.
Not only did he work hard, but he was also available at any time from then on, and even saved his own desserts (especially caramel ones) for Mianli.
Except for the fact that he was still upset about the little brat's unwavering belief that he was a cat.
Even if he is in the sea of sin, even if he is a hostage, the little fairy still enjoys the treatment as happy as a fairy.
*
Although the cruise ship is big, it can't withstand two children who don't need to eat or sleep searching around all day long.
Soon, every corner of the ship had been explored by them.
Miya just felt that there was something new to play, but there was nothing to play with again.
He stayed in Mianli's room and sighed.
Where else to go besides by boat?
Outside, the dark waves were swaying, one higher than the other.
Miya's yellow eyes suddenly lit up like lightbulbs: "Mian Xiaoli, can I take you to the sea?"
ocean……?
Mianli lived in heaven for so long, and if she hadn't met Zhuo Can by chance, she wouldn't even have had the chance to go to the ground.
Not to mention the sea.
Over the past six months, He has passed through the human world, returned to the divine realm, arrived at the devil's barrier, and opened up a new map: the ocean.
The last time I saw something related to the ocean was a long time ago when I was taken to the aquarium by my kindergarten class.
In front of the huge central wall, he looked at the fish and corals swimming around with fascination. Thinking of the upcoming separation, he and Tao Yingjia made a wish, or a promise, to "be sea water together in the next life."
Now Mia wants to take Him into the real seabed.
They jumped onto the windowsill.
The originally sealed glass had been shattered by Miya who broke in. The children stood by the windowsill, but no one climbed up. Only Mianli looked at the rolling and boiling black sea water, feeling a little hesitant.
"Isn't it hot?"
“It’s not hot.”
"Have you been there?"
"Of course. But my sister usually doesn't let me go because she's afraid I'll get lost... I have a pretty good memory, though."
"oh……"
The younger one bit his fingers, still worried.
"Really not hot?"
"real."
"Is it really true?"
"Really... stop talking nonsense and jump!"
Miya didn't say anything and dragged Mianli down from the cabin together.
Mian Li was so scared that he closed his eyes tightly, waiting for the pain and burning sensation of entering the sea water.
...but I didn't wait.
Although it looks like bubbling, the water temperature is actually not high.
He entered a warm body of water just like taking a hot bath at Cancan's house, as if returning to the mother's womb.
Although the young god doesn't remember what that felt like.
At this time, the benefits of being a god are reflected again: whether the heart is fat or not, all the human organs are just decorations, and they can survive anywhere.
Mianli had never swam before, but once he got into the water he could move his arms and legs freely.
Miya next to her was like a fish in water, even happier than when she was running on the shore.
Stretch your arms freely and swim up and down beside Him.
Mianli thought of Zhizhi and Taotao. These cats were not interested in water except for drinking it.
When Zhizhi was taking a bath, she wanted to go in and guard him, but she was so scared that she stopped.
Taotao's behavior is even more obvious. If water drops on its fur, it will jump three feet high.
He asked Mia curiously, "Aren't cats afraid of water?"
If they weren't in the water, Miya would have exploded: "How many times have I told you, I'm not a cat--!!"
He is the majestic black panther, a leopard——!!
*
The children swam freely in the "boiling water", completely unaware that they were being seen by the adults on the deck.
Zacharias, cigarette in hand, smiled and said, "I must admit, this is not what I expected."
Ariel was beside him, slowly shaking the champagne in her hand: "My little Mia actually has this effect."
Zechariah sighed. "I was prepared for a protracted battle, figuring out how to coax the child. Now, it looks like this little prince won't be leaving for a while."
They all thought that after the sleeping ceremony, the little god would cry and make a fuss every day to go home, so they made all the preparations: to put it simply, they would leave him alone, because the little god would not starve, and would definitely stop crying when he was tired of crying.
Who would have thought that he would become a good playmate of Ariel's brother.
It seems that they are enjoying playing here.
From every angle, it was a win for Zechariah.
Ariel asked, "How long shall we keep Him here?"
Zachariah held a half-burned cigarette between his fingers and narrowed his eyes. "Of course, we'll wait until the adults take the children home."
This statement leaves a lot of room for maneuver.
Ariel was silent for a moment: "Do you really want to see 'that person'?"
Zechariah frowned and looked at her: "What kind of talk is that? How can we get out without seeing Him?"
Actually it is possible.
Both the lord and Mia had tried to release the spirit from the barrier before, and even went to the real world to meet the little prince himself and his temporary keepers.
She knows all this.
Since the most important "core" can already leave the Sea of Sin, it won't be difficult for the main body to get out.
What's more, the lord was sealed here for three hundred years, not just to eat and sleep every day, and this huge ghost ship was not built for the sake of beauty.
Zechariah now had enough strength to tear open the barrier and leave the Sea of Sin.
But he chose the most tortuous method, kidnapping the descendants of the gods and demanding that the gods come out in person to confront him.
Ariel didn't understand at first, but after meeting the young god, she seemed to slowly understand a little.
The master has been trapped here for so many years. Now, whether to leave or not is no longer the most important thing.
What he seems to be most eager to do now is to meet "that person".
She knew who "that person" was, and understood that it was because of this person that her master had fallen into this state.
Shouldn't the master be filled with hatred towards "Him"?
If it's hate...
She really wanted to understand.
"Are you planning to lure Him into a trap and then kill Him?"
And then lead them to attack the temple and take control of the world?
"Killed...?"
Zechariah seemed to savor the words on his tongue and chuckled softly.
"Ariel, my little princess, there are many more fun ways in the world than killing."
After receiving the denial, the clue Ariel had just figured out was gone again.
It was rare that the lord was willing to mention this person, and Ariel had a lot of questions to ask.
Zacharias dusted off his cigarette, the smile on his face vanished, and his voice deepened.
"From now on, don't ask things you shouldn't ask."
He had never spoken to her in such a harsh tone.
The leopard's yellow pupils suddenly contracted.
"...I have overstepped my bounds. Please forgive me, my lord."

The Sea of Sin is indeed different from the real blue ocean. Although it looks dark on the surface, it is actually more transparent and brighter than most water sources in the world, and light can reach the bottom.
Sure enough, the barrier has its own logic and rules of survival.
The animals and plants that grow here are also all strange in shape. Many of them look very similar to those in the real world at first glance, but you will find that they are very different when you get closer.
For example, the "coral clusters" swaying at the bottom of the water are actually tentacles that can eat people. Once a small creature approaches, it will be immediately entangled by the tentacles, swallowed into the stomach, and digested completely in an instant.
No wonder the demons from the outside world seemed terrified when they heard about the Sea of Sin. Any random plankton or plant here might kill them.
However, no matter where you are, nature always follows the law of the jungle.
Sea of Sin is no exception.
Miya's golden headdress, like Ariel's pendant, was given by Zechariah himself. It embodies the breath of the devil and can make evil things retreat.
This is why Miya, as an underage leopard with almost no combat experience, can travel safely and unhindered in the sea.
Originally, he thought that if he brought Mian Li in, he would have to stay by his side so that he could stay within the radiation range of his protective shield.
Unexpectedly, Mianli himself is a powerful energy body that is immune to everything.
Even in the sea, the little god was still a light golden glowing ball.
Wherever it went, it attracted the attention of predators, but no one dared to approach.
Even those tentacle corals that do all kinds of evil have to behave like grandchildren when Mian Li passes by.
Miya's eyes widened: "That's amazing! How did you do that? My sister has to be careful of those guys!"
Mianli regained his heroic and proud attitude: "Because Lili is a little god~!"
He is omnipotent.
The boys played in the sea for a long time until their stomachs started to growl.
Miya glanced at the blurry reflection of the "sun" in the water and said, "It's time for dinner, shall we go home? I heard they have rock sugar and snow pear soup tonight."
Although Mianli was reluctant to leave the fresh sea, he wanted to eat delicious food more, so Miya pulled his little hand and swam back.
The two men went on deck, and the leopard shook its fur like a big dog and quickly finished itself.
Miya turned back into human form and looked at the wet Xiao Mianli, feeling embarrassed: "Hey, can't you shake it off?"
"Lili is not a cat."
"How many times do I have to tell you, it's a leopard! It's a leopard!"
Mianli actually has its own drying tool, which is His angel aperture.
But I was too tired from swimming just now, and I tried several times but couldn’t summon it.
The salty sea breeze blew by, and the child shuddered and actually sneezed.
Not only Miya, but Mianli himself was stunned: Can gods get sick?
The boy panicked. Not only did he secretly take the little guest to the sea, but he also made him catch a cold. He knew he would definitely be beaten by his sister.
He reverted to his cat-sized beast form, turned, and ran off: "I'll go get you a towel, just wait!"
The size of a cat, the speed of a leopard.
It disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Mianli clutched the damp corner of his clothes, feeling very embarrassed.
What should I do if there is no place to change clothes?
Suddenly, some soft cloth wrapped Him from head to toe.
The child felt lighter and was picked up by someone.
He felt someone wiping his wet curly hair gently.
Like Cancan.
But it’s definitely not Cancan.
A man sighed from above: "What are you fooling around with that kid? If he really makes you sick, how am I going to explain to your father? Hey, can you really get sick?"
Mianli poked her little head out from the towel and stared blankly at Zechariah who was holding her.
And those dark red horns.
He had been curious about its texture for a long time and reached out to touch it.
Zechariah anticipated this and dodged it by turning his head.
"I'm warning you, don't move."
His voice was stern, but his hands were still gentle.
Perhaps it was the least amount of strength a demon in charge of hell had ever exerted in his life.
Mian Li looked at him without blinking.
The skin is still very dark.
The hair is also black.
And those messy tattoos are so ugly.
That scar... doesn't look good either.
This man is gloomy.
Only those eyes were clear, like light amber.
Mianli was carried by him to the restaurant, and she felt more and more sleepy.
I thought vaguely before falling asleep.
Is it true? Is it the same as me?
