Jiang Yuebai took Xie Jingshan and tried to avoid places where there were many mermaids, swimming quickly to the west.
"Xie Jingshan, are you a dead fish? Swimming straight? Where's your waist? Twist it!"
Jiang Yuebai whispered in front of him, and Xie Jingshan resisted the urge to roll his eyes. What is a waist? He doesn't have one!
Jiang Yuebai glared threateningly. In the distance, two little mermaids were chasing and approaching. Xie Jingshan's scalp tightened and he quickly twisted his waist, and his whole body immediately became charming.
"puff!"
Jiang Yuebai couldn't help it, she bit her lips tightly and looked around.
Xie Jingshan was filled with shame and gritted his teeth in anger.
After a series of struggles, Xie Jingshan simply let go completely, twisting his body more and more seductively, and swam in front of Jiang Yuebai and twisted his body in various ways. The fish tail he created was almost hitting Jiang Yuebai's face.
There are not many mermaids in the Mermaid Kingdom, and the underwater city is vast and sparsely populated. They swam carefully all the way and successfully reached the west of the city, where they were blocked by a courtyard surrounded by a circle of huge conch shells, where more than a dozen male and female mermaids were spinning.
Jiang Yuebai and Xie Jingshan stayed outside for a while. This area was very large, and the exit from the city was just behind the tallest conch on the western side. If they took a detour, the incense power in the seal would definitely not be enough.
"What they are spinning must be the legendary shark silk. It will not get wet when put into water. After wearing it, you can walk on any body of water as if it were flat ground. A thin layer of it is as deep as the sea. Any spell can be swallowed by the shark silk."
Xie Jingshan looked at him with burning eyes.
"You can't buy this thing even if you have money. And those mermaid pearls are water-controlling artifacts that can replenish the soul. It is said that eating mermaid pearls that are more than ten thousand years old can increase one's lifespan by a thousand years, without any restrictions or punishments from the heavens."
Jiang Yuebai was looking for the way, and his eyes lit up when he heard what Xie Jingshan said. The two of them leaned on the wall and watched with burning eyes as the mermaids absorbed the essence of water to spin yarn, and then decorated the spun mermaid silk with colorful corals, shells, and pearls the size of longan. Those pearls were mermaid pearls.
As they worked, they communicated with each other by making short, dolphin-like sounds.
"We have to find a way to lure them away, but if we do that, we might be discovered," Jiang Yuebai whispered.
Xie Jingshan stretched his neck to look outside the city. "It's still thirty miles outside the city. If we speed up, we should be able to reach Xiaojie River before they chase us."
"Then take a risk!"
Jiang Yue pushed pink gladiolus to bloom on the white vine, accumulated sword energy, and blasted it fiercely at a conch house in the distance.
Sword energy is like rain!
The conch house collapsed with a loud bang under the heavy blow, and the dust on the seabed was immediately stirred up by the water flow, and there was chaos in the sight.
Jiang Yuebai and Xie Jingshan hid quickly. The mermaid who was spinning was the closest to them, so she immediately put down her work and went out to check. The mermaid guards who were patrolling in the distance also rushed over.
"Walk!"
Jiang Yuebai and Xie Jingshan took the opportunity to sneak into the spinning yard. While running towards the exit of the city, they tacitly pulled down a few pieces of mermaid silk from the shelf and put a dozen mermaid pearls into their arms.
If she had no room to put the things and time was tight, she could have emptied the entire yard.
They successfully rushed out of the city gate, but encountered a large area of dark blue kelp blocking the road. It sensed someone and immediately shot towards them like a snake.
Jiang Yuebai pulled Xie Jingshan back, and another large rain of swords shot over.
The kelp roots broke, leaving a gap, and they were able to pass through.
"stop!"
A sharp sound wave rushed from behind the two of them, hitting their backs with unstoppable force. Jiang Yuebai tried her best to maintain protection around her body, and the disguise on her body immediately dissipated, revealing her and Xie Jingshan's true appearance.
The two turned around and saw more than twenty mermaid guards holding harpoons, chasing them aggressively. The leader had a red nose. He was the one who had been stepped on in the face by Jiang Yuebai before.
Jiang Yuebai's expression changed. He grabbed Xie Jingshan's arm and used all his strength to activate the incense power in the seal and rushed westward.
The merman behind them kept making short, sharp sounds, which caused waves of sound to turn into water arrows and shot towards the two of them.
Jiang Yuebai pulled Xie Jingshan and they dodged left and right with great difficulty. Xie Jingshan was unable to help at all at the moment and felt very bad.
The sonic water arrows were becoming more and more dense, and the mermaids were getting closer and closer. At the bottom of the sea, they could not outrun the mermaids at all.
Another sonic water arrow attacked, and Jiang Yuebai had no time to resist. Xie Jingshan directly used his body to block her back, but the water arrow pierced through her protection and passed through her body.
A string of blue fluorescence scattered from Xie Jingshan's body into the sea. His soul felt a sharp pain and his face wrinkled.
"Hold on a little longer!"
Jiang Yuebai frowned, the power of the incense in the seal had run out, but fortunately, she finally saw the trench!
After exerting their last bit of strength, the two finally arrived above the bottomless black trench. A silent whirlpool slowly turned in the trench, attracting the surrounding water flow.
Another large and dense array of sonic water arrows attacked, and Jiang Yuebai kicked Xie Jingshan, kicking him into the whirlpool.
“You go first!”
After saying that, Jiang Yuebai used the last bit of incense power in the seal to create a barrier to block all the sonic water arrows.
If they don't block these sonic water arrows, they will be pierced like a sieve before they even enter the boundary river, and their souls will be seriously damaged when they return.
Xie Jingshan was caught in the current. He stretched out his hand to pull Jiang Yuebai along, but he only grabbed a piece of his clothes and was swept away by the huge suction force of the whirlpool and soon disappeared.
After blocking, Jiang Yuebai turned around and left. Suddenly, a harpoon broke through the water and headed straight for her throat.
In an instant, Jiang Yuebai was pinned by more than twenty harpoons and was surrounded, unable to move.
The red-nosed mermaid in the lead glanced at the vortex below. The mermaid next to him said something to him. He looked at Jiang Yuebai and said in human language, "It doesn't matter. That person shouldn't have stayed here in the first place, and you are a dead person. You must reincarnate according to the rules of the underworld, or die completely."
The harpoon moved forward, and Jiang Yuebai raised his head and retreated, "What if I don't want to be reincarnated, and I don't want to die?"
The red-nosed mermaid looked at Jiang Yuebai deeply and said, "Fill up this trench!"
Jiang Yuebai's heart tightened as he watched the mermaids around him take deep breaths, their bellies bulging, and emitting sharp and piercing sound waves towards the trench below.
Seeing this, Jiang Yuebai grabbed the harpoon in front of him and rushed downwards regardless of anything.
"Kill her!"
More than twenty harpoons stabbed Jiang Yuebai's back with unstoppable force.
At the critical moment, a ray of golden light burst out from between Jiang Yuebai's eyebrows, just like when she rushed up the steps to immortality in front of the Tianyan Sect's mountain gate.
The golden light powerfully shook away many harpoons. Jiang Yuebai sighed in her heart, "As expected, Lu Xingyun is still protecting her!"
The trench collapsed inward and the whirlpool was about to dissipate.
A stream of water turned into a rope, suddenly wrapped around Jiang Yuebai's arm and pulled her alive.
"Don't even think about escaping today!"
Jiang Yuebai turned around and glared. It was still the red-nosed merman. He didn’t step on him lightly enough before!
There was no more incense power in the seal, and the protection around her body was rapidly dissipating. The bone-eroding and soul-stirring sea water washed over her body, and dots of blue fluorescence began to emanate from all over her body.
Are we really going to fail here
Boom!
The trench continued to collapse, and the water flow rope became tighter and tighter. Jiang Yuebai watched helplessly as the Xiaojie River he was escaping from was about to disappear.
At this moment, a slender hand suddenly stretched out from the Xiaojie River and grabbed Jiang Yuebai's ankle.
The surging spiritual energy was like a mountain river bursting its banks, and the water rope on the arm broke instantly. Under the shocked gazes of all the mermaids, Jiang Yuebai was forcibly dragged into the Xiaojie River by that hand.
boom!
The trench collapsed completely and the Xiaojie River disappeared into the deep sea.
The strong feeling of suffocation and dizziness lasted for a long time. Like a drowning person suddenly rushing out of the water, Jiang Yuebai took a deep breath and came back to life.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw the supreme elder Wen Miao squatting on the sea, staring at her with eyes spitting fire and a murderous look on his face.
Xie Jingshan shrank back with his hands in his pockets like a quail, not daring to move at all.
"Master~ I miss you so much~~"
Jiang Yuebai grinned, trying to please.
