Chapter 1310: Chapter 1310: The Sea King’s Wish
Ti ticked by second by second, each one a heart-wrenching tornt for Qin Sisi.
In truth, not much ti had passed, but for her, it felt like an eternity.
The waters of the Deep Trench Evil Spirit finally began to surge violently. Qin Sisi suddenly looked up, just in ti to see Ye You’s figure leaping out of the trench, his deep purple fish tail vigorously flicking as he gracefully erged onto the seabed rocks at the edge.
"Xiao Hei!" Qin Sisi exclaid in delight, swimming quickly toward Ye You.
Ye You appeared sowhat weary, but when he saw Qin Sisi’s joyful expression, his gaze brightened instinctively. He opened his arms and pulled Qin Sisi tightly into his embrace.
Qin Sisi buried her head deep in the crook of Ye You’s arm, crying tears of joy.
Ye You gently stroked her head and whispered softly in her ear, "It’s alright, I’m back."
Don’t be afraid, my wife, my love, I’m always here.
Seeing Ye You safely leave the Deep Trench Evil Spirit, Zhuo Chen and the other three rmaid tribe warriors cheered happily. They had to be happy; the last small squad suffered severe casualties, and for them to all retreat safely was indeed a fortunate outco.
Ye You first took out several Fire Beauty Sea Anemone tentacles from his portable space and fed them to Qin Sisi.
Rembering how frenzied and aggressive the Fire Beauty Sea Anemones were while pursuing them, Qin Sisi hesitated to take a bite, but since the rmaid tribe claid this was a divine artifact with healing properties, she forced herself to try it.
She picked up a tentacle of the Fire Beauty Sea Anemone, gritted her teeth, closed her eyes, and put it into her mouth.
The taste wasn’t bad, sowhat like jelly.
Qin Sisi’s mood cald a bit, and she consud five Fire Beauty Sea Anemone tentacles in succession, though she didn’t feel any imdiate effects.
"How do you feel?" Ye You asked expectantly.
Qin Sisi shook her head and said, "Not yet; maybe it takes more ti!"
Zhuo Chen nodded and explained, "Yes, the tentacles of the Fire Beauty Sea Anemone are difficult to digest and need several days in the body to be completely absorbed, so you’ll only start feeling it after a few days."
Hearing Zhuo Chen’s explanation, Ye You had to suppress his anxiety and wait patiently.
The six of them returned to the Sea King Palace and presented the tentacles of the Fire Beauty Sea Anemone they had harvested from the Deep Trench Evil Spirit to the Sea King.
The Sea King, though impressed by Ye You’s powerful magic, was hesitant to have much hope for their mission given the previous ten-mber squad’s tragic outco and unsatisfactory results.
When Ye You laid more than ten fresh, red tentacles of the Fire Beauty Sea Anemone before the Sea King, he was shocked. As the leader of the rmaid tribe and its eldest mber, he had never seen anyone complete the task of harvesting the Fire Beauty Sea Anemone so perfectly.
The tentacles brought back by the last small squad were almost transparent, yet those brought by Ye You were still vividly red.
Seeing the Sea King in a daze, Zhuo Chen quickly prompted, "Your Majesty the Sea King, the tentacles of the Fire Beauty Sea Anemone lose efficacy easily, please consu them quickly."
Ye You also said, "General Zhuo Chen is right. The energy of the Fire Beauty Sea Anemone is diminishing every second; Your Majesty should consu them as soon as possible. Any questions you have can be answered thoroughly after your recovery."
They all realized that the color of the Fire Beauty Sea Anemone tentacles was no longer as bright as when first harvested. While Ye You’s portable space could preserve them, it couldn’t completely stop the loss of energy.
The Sea King, knowing well the properties of the Fire Beauty Sea Anemone, hesitated no longer and imdiately grabbed all of Ye You’s tentacles, his mouth opened wide, and swallowed them in one go.
Even with so energy lost, the remaining tentacles still had excellent healing effects. The Sea King could feel that this ti, he had narrowly escaped disaster.
To his surprise, Qin Sisi produced a letter, saying it was from Xue Mo to him.
The Sea King was almost in tears, his hands trembling as he took the letter, engrossed in reading it.
Since it was a letter to her father, it didn’t matter if Hai Cangming found it. Xue Mo expressed strong emotions in her letter, passionately declaring her nostalgia for the Sea King Palace and her longing for her parents, also reassuring them she was doing well and they needn’t worry.
In the past two years, the Sea King was constantly worried about his beloved daughter. Though he was the ruler of these seas, he couldn’t even protect his own daughter, leaving him deeply defeated.
But there was nothing he could do; Hai Cangming was a deity guardian, and no one in the rmaid tribe could stand against him, leaving him to watch helplessly as his beloved daughter was imprisoned—a most heart-wrenching tornt for him.
His greatest wish now was to defeat Hai Cangming and rescue his daughter.
A few days later, the tentacles of the Fire Beauty Sea Anemone were gradually absorbed by Qin Sisi and the Sea King, clearing the toxins from the Sea King’s body as he slowly regained health.
After all, given his old age, his body’s self-healing capabilities were limited, so he could only improve little by little.
Qin Sisi also felt her body growing stronger, able to release more magic power, although magic source remained a vague sensation, difficult to communicate with.
So ti later, when the Sea King had fully recovered, he held a grand banquet in the Sea King Palace to thank Ye You and the others for their great assistance.
After Zhuo Chen reported so circumstances to the Sea King, he guessed that Ye You was no ordinary rmaid tribe warrior. He must have a more prestigious identity but chose not to reveal it for now.
Since the other party didn’t want to disclose it, the Sea King wouldn’t press further and sincerely expressed gratitude to Ye You and Qin Sisi.
After several rounds of drinks, the Sea King awkwardly said, "Ye You, Madam, it’s like this: I saw the short sword you gave to Zhuo Chen and his n and really liked it; would you mind gifting
one too?"
Having a weapon would certainly improve his combat effectiveness.
Qin Sisi and Ye You exchanged a glance and smiled in reply, "Your Majesty the Sea King, you are too kind. We’ve been imposing on you for so long; it’s only right to present you with a gift. I think a short sword is too ordinary; please allow
so ti to craft you a better weapon."
The Sea King was overjoyed, "That would be wonderful. Thank you, thank you!"
Saying this, he clapped his hands vigorously, and two graceful female rmaids swam over to him, each holding a white jade tray containing many lustrous pearls, various-colored gemstones, dainty coral beads, exquisite rare shells, and many other treasures, dazzling to the eye.
