Became a salted fish pretend heiress and handed over the system Chapter 238 - 227: Construction of the Undersea Castle

The next day, Xia Yue went to exercise with Yan Mo again, and after breakfast, she went to the sea.

Starting a new day’s work.

But this ti, Yan Mo accompanied her to the sea. He wanted to see the construction of the Undersea Castle as well.

"I’ll go down first and start building the castle. During the construction, I’ll release Spiritual Power back into the ocean," Xia Yue said to Yan Mo.

"I’ll dive down with you." Yan Mo, with his scuba gear on, was even more curious about the construction of the Undersea Castle than before.

He had seen underwater structures before, but a large-scale building like the Undersea Castle intrigued him.

"Sure, let’s go." Xia Yue didn’t turn him down and agreed to his company.

Once he was suited up with his diving gear, they set off to the ocean.

As they dived down, Yan Mo found Xia Yue even more agile underwater than on land.

They didn’t swim far before the orcas and dolphins, who were dwelling in this area, found them and swam towards them.

They even made excited noises.

Yan Mo eyed the behemoths warily, fearing that if they brawled, it might affect them.

After all, dolphins are part of orcas’ diet.

"Don’t be nervous. They won’t fight. I’ve told them before, if they fight, I’d kick them out," Xia Yue softly consoled him, as if she knew what he was worried about.

Yan Mo, breathing through his oxygen mask, was unable to reply verbally and simply nodded. He then gestured to Xia Yue, implying that it might be better for them to leave first, as he was concerned they might get hurt when they began constructing the Undersea Castle.

It took Xia Yue a mont to understand his aning. She then asked the surrounding dolphins and orcas to leave, promising to play with them later.

She then gave them a little bit of her Spiritual Power.

Feeling the Spiritual Power, the creatures were even more reluctant to leave her. In the end, it took a threat to finally make them swim away, though they still followed from so distance.

Watching them follow from afar, Xia Yue and Yan Mo felt it was a safe distance and thus didn’t drive them away any further.

Soon, they arrived at their chosen location.

"This is the place. I’m going to start. How are you holding up?" Xia Yue asked Yan Mo with concern.

"No problem, go ahead." Yan Mo nodded.

Xia Yue activated the virtual screen of her system, opened the Undersea Castle from her backpack, selected the position, and then clicked start.

[The construction of the Undersea Castle begins... countdown one hour, please be patient.]

"It might take an hour. You should go up first," Xia Yue suggested to Yan Mo.

"Alright, I’ll go up first." Yan Mo agreed. He doubted his oxygen tank would last for an hour.

"You go first. I’ll take a look around the ocean area and co back when it’s done," Xia Yue told him.

"Sure."

With that, Yan Mo swam upwards, and Xia Yue followed her daily routine, inspecting the ocean area, checking the growth of the fishes and corals, only after watching him swim far enough.

The dolphins and orcas that had been following Xia Yue were initially scared away by the intense light emitted from the Undersea Castle.

But now, seeing Xia Yue moving away from the light, they slowly followed her.

"Why are you so clingy, always sticking around and mooching off my Spiritual Power, huh? Enjoying yourselves, aren’t you?" Xia Yue touched and chided them, albeit without any real animosity.

The dolphins and orcas let out cheerful noises at Xiao Yue’s touch.

After touring around the ocean area with Xia Yue, they returned to the location that was previously glowing.

The dolphins and orcas were a bit scared, worrying about Xia Yue’s safety, so they tried to stop her from getting close.
