I've spread the Heaven and Earth realms throughout the God-Slaying World.

"Wuhu! Wuhu!"

Daxia, on the edge of the South China Sea.

A figure leaped out of the sea like a dragon breaking through the water, instantly creating a large expanse of sparkling waves.

The sunlight slanted down,

The raindrops fell upon that figure, reflecting the image of a vibrant young merman.

His long, light blue hair swayed freely in the gentle sea breeze, and his upper body was bare, revealing his well-defined muscles.

The scales on the fish's tail shimmered.

It swayed powerfully in the air, stirring up gentle breezes.

It was Lynn's Jade Purity Body.

"Dongfang Jin is absolutely right, mermaid skin... is so smooth!"

Although Lynn didn't have much close contact with Hai Lanlan these past few days, she still collected a lot of data on the merfolk.

The pure white mask was enough to successfully transform him. He might not be comparable to a real merman, but a normal person still wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

Feeling the difference in my body, wow! No wonder Hailanlan usually likes to soak in the water so much.

Not long ago.

After undergoing a series of drug treatments and physical interrogations, Lynn successfully obtained information from the stalker.

At the same time, he used the [Pure White Mask] to transform himself into his appearance and successfully infiltrated the factory.

Then comes the old-fashioned Mission: Impossible plot, and they take it down in one fell swoop.

According to Lynn's script, after Yuqing finished dealing with the ghost ship, he should have caught up with it with all his might, and then dealt with the tails at the coordinates provided by Zhaoming.

But the sudden appearance of Hailanlan's mother disrupted the plan. Although the result was good, it wasn't very good.

With Yuehuai running away, Lin Enke won't be able to sleep tonight.

Then, a bold idea popped into Lynn's mind.

"(???*) Hehehehehehehehe... Now, let's make a little noise first!"

Before he finished speaking, Lynn disappeared beneath the surface of the sea once more.

the other side.

"Lord Yuehuai, are we leaving like this?"

"I'm being dragged along," Mingliu asked weakly.

"That's how the Night's Watch ended up..."

"Stop talking."

Yuehuai made a shushing gesture, "Do you know why we're going to Guixu?"

"That's unethical!"

"I do not know either."

"???"

“Going to the Ruins was the command of the Egyptian gods, but they didn’t tell me why. Besides… neither you nor the gods behind me are from the Egyptian pantheon.”

"Now, we've gone, and we've paid the price with action and dozens of deaths."

Yuehuai squinted and spoke softly.

"Attitude is the mask of the heart."

"Our attitude toward those Egyptian gods has been very clear: if we can't win, a strategic retreat is perfectly normal. We tried, but the task was far too difficult."

"So we retreated, that's all."

Mingliu instantly understood, and at the same time, her admiration for Yuehuai intensified.

"Lord Yuehuai, do you mean that even if the Egyptian gods know we've failed, they won't make things too difficult for us? After all, this is an extremely challenging task!"

Yuehuai did not answer, but simply nodded slightly.

"Ahohohohoho—!!"

Just as Yuehuai was about to speed away from this sea area, a series of powerful roars came from the distant sea, like rolling thunder.

Uneasy ripples spread across the sea, continuously expanding outwards.

"Lord Yuehuai, shall we?"

Mingliu asked Yuehuai cautiously, her voice trembling slightly.

Yuehuai frowned slightly, lost in thought for a moment.

A moment later, a resolute glint flashed in his eyes, and his hands moved swiftly. A faint black light emanated from his palms, and ghostly shadows quickly enveloped him and Ming Liu, making their figures instantly blurry on the sea surface.

Subsequently,

He carried the Willow Tree and flew swiftly toward the direction from which the sound came, like a black lightning bolt streaking across the sea, creating a slight ripple in the air.

"Help! Kill someone!"

Not far away, the merman that Lynn had transformed into was being mysteriously and frantically chased by a shark from the sea realm.

The shark was enormous, like a small mountain swimming in the sea. Its body shimmered with a cold luster under the sunlight, like a war machine forged from steel.

Its gaping maw revealed rows of sharp teeth, each one like a dagger, gleaming with a chilling light.

Moreover, the shark was extremely fast, moving freely through the seawater, leaving trails of white water in its wake, and following closely behind Lynn like an arrow shot from a bow.

They seemed determined to have this "mermaid".

"Is there anyone who can save these poor, innocent merfolk?!"

Lynn: Was I overacting?

the other side,

When Mingliu saw the merman again, her eyes lit up, and at the same time, her anger rose uncontrollably.

He recalled the scene of fighting with Hai Lanlan's mother, and both old and new grudges surged into his heart, but he still managed to suppress them.

"Could we..."

How could Yuehuai not know Mingliu's little scheme? After witnessing the power of that strong merman, how could she not want to capture a lone merman and have Chen Erniu control him through a soul contract, making him a member of the "believers"?

It must be said that Yuehuai was also very tempted.

“Lord Yuehuai, that mermaid is not beyond the borders of Sichuan. I can handle it myself. Please wait a moment, sir.”

Mingliu looked at Yuehuai and acquiesced, adhering to the principle that the boss should enjoy working for him.

Immediately, deathly energy surged and billowed around him, spreading like a thick black fog.

He plunged into the sea, splashing water, intending to abduct the mermaid.

Half an hour later.

Ming Liu emerged from the sea somewhat disheveled, carrying a mermaid in her hand.

"Lord Yuehuai, I have not failed you!"

Yuehuai squinted, looking very happy.

"Not bad, at least this time we didn't leave empty-handed."

He gently raised his hand, and a black lotus petal lifted the merman and moved her in front of him.

Ming Liu quietly moved behind him, taking on the role of his underling.

"The mermaids are indeed all beautiful."

Just as Yuehuai was about to satisfy her curiosity and investigate, another unexpected event occurred: the merman suddenly opened its eyes.

"Huai Zi, just watch carefully..."

"???"

The merman boy, lifted up by the black lotus petals, suddenly turned his head and smiled at Yuehuai.

"This strike serves as a warning against arrogance and impetuosity!"
