The villain has been playing badly for ten years

Although the ship was stranded, there was always a way out. The tide suddenly surged and the sea level gradually rose.

It was late at night, and the boat was sailing steadily on the sea. The sound of the oars mixed with the sound of the waves hitting the boat again and again.

It was roughly three quarters past the hour of Yin when the ship entered the sea ruins.

There was a sound of rain falling on the eaves, a whisper of wind, and the disturbing sounds outside the magic circle were even stronger, making people sleepy.

At this time, there was a slight sound of a bamboo door opening, and someone walked into the house. The hem of her lilac-colored dress moved slightly with her steps, and the green gauze draped over her arms was extremely elegant.

"The day has come."

Hu Xiaoxiao said softly, like the misty rain of Jiangnan: "I wonder if Your Highness has figured out the answer to the booklet?"

"probably."

Ning Xiusu then handed her the Lingfeng Book and the rice paper.

Unexpectedly, she didn't even look at it, but gently gathered it up and straightened it with her slender jade fingers, saying, "Thank you, Your Highness."

As he spoke, the room shook slightly again, and the entire Gengjin Four Symbols seemed to sense some fluctuation and slowly dissipated.

Hu Xiaoxiao gestured towards him, her eyes filled with autumn water, and she said as if inviting him:

"Your Highness, we have arrived at the Sea Ruins. Since you have won the bet, follow me."

"..."

Ning Xiusu was a little surprised. He looked so calm now, as if he had known the result already.

"Uncle Bearded, the magic circle has been withdrawn."

Miemie reminded him happily, and Chen Jiu, who was still a little drowsy, suddenly woke up.

He stood up and was about to follow Ning Xiusu out of the magic circle, but unexpectedly, Hu Xiaoxiao and Ning Xiusu were the only two people who could pass through the magic circle.

There was a "bang" sound and a golden light flashed. Ning Xiusu heard the loud noise and turned around, only to see Chen Jiu fall down again.

"Hey, Mo Chifei, you old fool, what's the point of trapping me here?"

He looked at Hu Xiaoxiao, his eyebrows raised, his only eye burning with anger for a moment, and he shouted loudly.

"Girl, let us go quickly."

Hu Xiaoxiao seemed to be ignoring her words, so Ning Xiusu said, "Since the boat has already docked, there's no need to trap them..."

Before he finished speaking, Hu Xiaoxiao interrupted:

"Your Highness, your game with Mr. Mo has just begun. As for these two people, I will help you take good care of them."

……

The stars in the sky are as big as bowls, and the starlight is still hidden under the surface of the sea.

A偃甲 ship sailed into the fog, revealing a desolate land covered with sand, ice and snow, which was an island.

The island is in the middle of the sea. Looking from the boat, you can see the endless expanse of the sea. Everywhere you look is covered with thick fog. The surroundings are surprisingly quiet, with only the waves crashing violently.

Countless men were busy, either furling the sails or dropping anchor, their movements skillfully and in an orderly manner.

As the ship gradually approached the shore, it finally docked steadily on the sandbank. The Yan people threw down ropes, tightly connecting the ship to the island.

Mo Chifei was wearing a black robe that looked like ink and ash, and he was standing on the deck of the Yanjia ship, becoming increasingly hazy in the fog.

"Prince Xian, you haven't been back to this place for a long time, right?"

Mo Chifei stood with his hands behind his back. When he heard the footsteps behind him, he didn't turn around, as if he had eyes on the back of his head.

Ning Xiusu followed Hu Xiaoxiao to the deck and looked towards the fog. It was desolate, cold and icy, and the damp chill was biting. He really had no impression of it.

"In this bet, unlocking the letter will allow me to enter the Sea Ruins. The time is calculated to perfection."

Mo Chifei asked, "Why, Prince Xian seems to have something else to say."

"I just don't understand. You've already unlocked those pages on the note. Why are you asking me to unlock them again? It's unnecessary."

His crystal face was cold and full of interest:

"How do you know this volume has been unlocked?"

Ning Xiusu spoke in a lazy tone, but his voice was not tired at all:

"Because you all acted too calmly. If your troubles were finally resolved, you wouldn't be acting like this."

Mo Chifei laughed heartily and said, "It seems the divination was right."

Ning Xiusu ignored the man's mysterious sigh and said coldly: "Since I won this round, shouldn't I fulfill my promise?"

"Of course. My words are as good as white soap. I will keep my word and will never stop you..."

Mo Chifei suddenly turned his head, and the crystal head looked at him, and asked in a very oppressive tone:

"But, now that we've crossed the Shuhai, can you escape?"

Ning Xiusu wanted to leave the sea ruins, but since he stepped out of the cabin, he soon discovered that the suppressive power of the Youlian Spirit Fire had not been lifted.

This is obviously not related to the magic circle...

Without the dark lotus spirit fire, one cannot use magic, and of course, one cannot do without the sea ruins.

"Heh," he chuckled softly, saying without warmth, "Mr. Mo really went to great lengths to get me to the treasury."

"Prince Xian, you misunderstood."

Mo Chifei stood with his hands behind his back, looking up at the sky, as if gazing into the distance, and said indifferently:

"The waves aren't big right now... If you insist on leaving, you can choose to swim back to Dayan by yourself."

There was a hint of joking in his tone as he spoke.

Ning Xiu stood quietly to one side, with a slender figure and an expression on his face as if painted with light ink, seemingly gentle but actually revealing a hint of coldness.

He said, "It's really boring to go back to Dayan. Since Mr. Mo wants to treat me as a guest of honor, why not completely dismantle the Four Symbols Gengjin Formation?"

Mo Chifei laughed heartily, "Prince Xian, those two ghost cultivators are insignificant to begin with. If you want to let them go, it's up to you."

Then he turned around abruptly, and his wide robe fluttered in the wind, bringing a gust of cold wind that made the people around him shiver.

Mo Chifei had already gotten off the boat, and his whole body was like a dark ball, stepping into the thick fog and reefs.

Ning Xiusu had no intention of following him. Instead, he turned around and headed towards the cabin.

Just as he walked outside the room he had just been to, he discovered that the magic circle had indeed been removed.

"Your Majesty."

Hu Xiaoxiao appeared behind him at some point and called out softly:

"Now that we've arrived at the mermaids' homeland, don't you want to go and take a look?"

Ning Xiusu asked, "Miss, have these two said where they are going?"

"The Four Symbols Gengjin Formation has been withdrawn. How could I know where they went?"

As Hu Xiaoxiao spoke, her deer-like eyes looked around with a bright look as if filled with autumn water.

"But my Lord, if you don't follow us, you will have to stay on the boat alone."

Ning Xiusu had no other choice. He didn't know what was ahead, but it was obvious that staying on the boat would be futile.

He thought of his doubts again, turned around slightly and asked, "The Moon-Closing Stone that Hua Jianbai found is in your hands, right?"

Hu Xiaoxiao is comparable to a lotus flower, delicate but not gorgeous, but her smile is soft and gentle, without any trace of frivolity.

"Your Highness, is this the thing you are talking about?"

She just opened her palm, and the crescent-shaped stone necklace was gleaming.

When Ning Xiusu took it, his clear eyes seemed to freeze: "Did you do something to him?"

Hu Xiaoxiao's eyebrows are as green as distant mountains, and her eyes are like a crescent moon lake with mist and autumn waves.

"Your Majesty, we still need you to open the treasure house. If you don't leave, we will naturally not do anything to him."

Her tone was extremely gentle, and there was no trace of threat.

What a good white-faced and red-faced drama...

When Ning Xiusu smiles, he is as gentle as the newly born spring water. When he is not smiling, the profile of his face is very cold and without any warmth, which makes him seem to keep people away from him.

"Well, I don't think I can refuse."

Hu Xiaoxiao pursed her lips gently and smiled: "It's good that Your Highness understands."

The coarse gravel under my feet, mixed with ice, was freezing cold.

He followed Hu Xiaoxiao off the boat and headed into the distance. The island was covered in jagged rocks, without a trace of greenery. Only dead trees and branches were seen, shivering in the cold wind.

The reefs beside the shore have been beaten by the waves for a long time and are bumpy and uneven, like the teeth of a ferocious beast.

In the dim mist, Mr. Mo can be seen standing not far away.

Sea Ruins...

As soon as Ning Xiusu came here, for some reason, the faint impression left deep in his memory seemed to be revived.

There is a sense of intimacy, like returning home, which really calls you to know more.

"Prince Xian, do you still remember this place?"

Mo Chi was flying not far away, and the sound of muffled drum skins was pushed to his ears by the wind and fog.

Although he didn't remember it clearly, he always felt that it shouldn't be so desolate.

"This is the so-called Sea Ruins. Why does it look like this?"

Hu Xiaoxiao was beside him, and she gently reminded him, "This is the Bund. The real sea ruins are on the inner island."

Mo Chifei waved his sleeves lightly and stood with his hands behind his back. "It seems that Prince Xian doesn't remember the mermaid's former residence at all. So what about the treasure house?"

Ning Xiusu listened to his questions and said with a little impatience:

"You won't end up asking me where the treasure is, will you?"

"Time is long and the road is vast,"

Mo Chi Fei Jing Shi glanced at him sideways, then looked up at the dark sky, and said with a hint of melancholy in his tone:

"The changes in the stars are just like the changes in the world. It's a pity that the old friend is gone, and nothing is the same anymore..."

Ning Xiusu didn't know what this person was sighing about for no apparent reason.

He only sighed and said to Hu Xiaoxiao: "Youlai, lead the way."

"Yes, Mr. Mo."

Hu Xiaoxiao responded respectfully and led the way.
