Beneath the sea.
A line of dolphins stood together, with four sea snakes tied up behind them, bound tightly with ropes and wrapped in fishing nets. These were Hai ng and her three companions.
Among the dolphins were many familiar figures.
Chieftain Bo Xi, Bopu, and the renowned elder guardians of the Dolphin Clan were all present.
Floating opposite the dolphins was a group of sea snakes, also the high-ranking mbers of the Sea Snake Clan.
"Bo Xi, why have you captured my clansn?"
The speaker was Hai Yuntian, the chieftain of the Sea Snake Clan, his voice cold as a ghost.
He had rushed over as soon as he received the ssage from the snake scales, but he was still a step too late, resulting in Hai ng's capture.
"Your clansn plotted against a friend of my Dolphin Clan, intending to kill him, so I had no choice but to capture them," Bo Xi replied coldly.
Hai Yuntian squinted his eyes and stared at Hai ng, "Hai ng, what exactly happened?"
Bound by the fishing net, Hai ng stamred, her face extrely pale.
"Chieftain, it has nothing to do with us. We were just following Sister Hai ng's orders to hunt a horned serpent, and that's how we got caught."
"Yeah, we were just following orders. Please save us, I don't want to be eaten by dolphins!"
The sea snakes captured alongside Hai ng hurriedly pleaded for help. They had never been captured in their lives and thought they were dood, crying out in fear.
Hai Yuntian ignored them, focusing solely on Hai ng.
At this point, Hai ng dared not hide anything anymore. Gritting her teeth, she said, "That horned serpent injured my brother with despicable ans. My brother is still unconscious. I was furious and asked Senior Lei Man to take revenge. Senior Lei Man was also willing, so..."
She recounted the events.
She and Lei Man had tead up to hunt Xu Hei, chasing him all the way to the island.
After hearing this, Hai Yuntian's pupils contracted, "Lei Man?"
"Where is Lei Man?"
His expression changed imdiately, rising into the air and looking towards the island.
On the island, the aroma of grilled fish wafted through the air, a mouthwatering scent.
By the bonfire, three figures sat together.
Hei Huang held a skewer of at, Xu Hei was gnawing on a fish fillet, and Han Te quickly burrowed into the ground, covering his face with a coconut shell.
Seeing the skewered at on the bonfire, Hai Yuntian's eyes nearly popped out.
"Lei Man, eaten?"
A tidal wave of shock surged within Hai Yuntian.
He could never have imagined that Lei Man, at the Great Perfection of the Golden Core, a master of the Penglai Sea, would die in such a desolate place, devoured by a group of unknown individuals.
"Co on, join us! It's delicious," Hei Huang waved the skewer in his hand, shouting.
Hai Yuntian's mouth twitched, gritting his teeth, "You're courting death!"
He no longer paid attention to the people on the island. These reckless fools would be dealt with by soone of higher status.
Hai Yuntian returned to the sea, addressing Bo Xi, "I don't care what Hai ng did, release them imdiately, or don't bla for being ruthless!"
"Hmph! I won't release them today. What can you do? I don't intend to take her life, just to bring her back and imprison her for a while to prevent further mischief!"
Bo Xi was unyielding. He knew that this snake woman harbored murderous intent towards Xu Hei and could not be allowed to leave.
As for whether to kill or not, that was up to Xu Hei.
"You seek death!"
Hai Yuntian's voice was icy, and the sea snakes beside him quickly spread out, forming a surrounding formation, eyes filled with killing intent, encircling the dolphin group.
The dolphins were not to be outdone, brandishing fish spears and other weapons, ready to fight at any mont.
"Your Dolphin Clan's top expert seems to be injured. Without soone at the Demon Infant Stage to hold the fort, you dare to challenge my clan? I think you're tired of living!"
Hai Yuntian squinted his eyes, a cold gleam flashing.
And at that mont.
Suddenly, a long black shadow appeared behind Hai Yuntian. It was a sea snake shrouded in shadows, its appearance indistinct, with only a pair of hollow black eyes visible.
As soon as this snake appeared, Chieftain Bo Xi's pupils contracted instantly.
"It's him!"
He recognized it. This black serpent was the very culprit that poisoned his brother, an assassin at the Elental Infant stage!
…………
"Hmm?"
On the island, Hei Huang, who had been gnawing on an eel skewer, suddenly stood up, his dog eyes wide open, fixed on the sea below, unblinking.
"What's wrong?" Xu Hei asked.
Hei Huang replied, "I sll sothing that makes sick, makes want to vomit."
Hei Huang gritted his teeth, his fists clenched, a hint of crimson in his eyes, the eel skewer falling to the ground.
Seeing Hei Huang's expression, even Xu Hei was taken aback. It was the first ti he had seen Hei Huang like this.
This primal anger was sothing he had never witnessed before.
Xu Hei's eyes flashed, and he made a quick decision, rushing towards the water.
"Wait!"
Hei Huang stopped him, solemnly saying, "Don't go over there, it's not sothing you can handle!"
"What do you an?" Xu Hei frowned.
…………
"Boom!!"
The sea surface erupted with waves a thousand feet high, exploding with overwhelming ripples, violent energy sweeping across. Hei Huang's mind moved, erecting a formation to block the surging tides.
Beneath the water, a massive dolphin appeared, its flesh full and vibrant, eyes bright and spirited, exuding a powerful aura.
It was Bo Xi's brother, the great demon at the Demon Infant Stage, Bonan!
Bonan had erged as well!
"How is this possible? Weren't you poisoned?" Hai Yuntian's voice echoed in shock.
In front of Bonan, layers of ripple-like waves erged, blocking the black serpent outside.
Both sides displayed their cultivation perfectly, both reaching the Demon Infant level, equivalent to the human Elental Infant stage, evenly matched.
The black serpent's eyes were sharp, staring at the creature before it, sneering, "Oh? I didn't expect you to have the strength to erge. Did you find a way to detoxify? Or are you forcing yourself out, regardless of the consequences?"
"That's none of your concern!"
Bonan snorted coldly, spitting out a colorful bubble that drifted towards the dark serpent.
The bubble moved swiftly, exploding near the serpent.
"Boom!!!"
A thunderous explosion resounded, the shockwave concentrating at a point, transforming into a colorful sword, stabbing towards the dark serpent. This technique of concentrating explosions was Bonan's specialty.
The serpent did not linger, retreating like a ghost, its form flashing past, grabbing Hai ng's fishing net, and withdrawing swiftly. However, it was still grazed by the sword, letting out a muffled groan, and flew back into the sea snake group.
"Bonan, you're lucky this ti. Next ti, you won't be so fortunate!"
The dark serpent's figure vanished like a ghost, retreating rapidly.
The sea snake clan also withdrew completely, disappearing into the distance.
Bonan hovered in the water, his expression calm, watching the sea snake clan retreat.
Only after all the sea snakes had left, disappearing from his perception range.
Bonan shuddered, a trickle of blood seeping from the corner of his mouth, his body emanating waves of weakness.
"Are you alright?" Bo Xi hurriedly approached, asking anxiously.
"No worries!" Bonan waved his fin, saying, "This injury is nothing compared to when I was poisoned. I'm much better now."
This ti, he had taken a significant risk by forcing himself out, further aggravating his injuries, but it was all worth it.
At this mont, Xu Hei also descended, arriving in the sea.
"Xu Hei, my young friend, they didn't hurt you just now, did they?" Bonan asked.
"I'm fine." Xu Hei swam closer, saying seriously, "You should head back first. In a day, I'll co to perform the second detoxification for you."
