Chapter 668: Lost and Seeking Help

"It's all because I held him back!" Su Miaoyin spends each day in remorse.

"Stop overthinking! You also know Ye Liuyun is not the type to despise you for a low realm. Family members don't speak like strangers. If you say that to him face‑to‑face, it'll only hurt him more. Now just hope he returns safely, and thereafter you should focus on cultivation and quickly raise your realm."

Wu Qingcheng, while worrying about Ye Liuyun, also has to constantly comfort Su Miaoyin.

But the two of them do have a companion, able to keep each other company. Yu Er, Ru Yue, Bai Hu and others were all forcibly sent back to Xuan Kong Shi by Wu Qingcheng to cultivate.

Since Ye Liuyun is absent, the words Wu Qingcheng says are still all obeyed by them.

They waited on the Flying Boat for over twenty days. That day, they finally saw Lei Ming's piloted Flying Boat appear within everyone's Divine Sense range.

They returned a few days later than expected.

Because Lei Ming was inattentive while piloting the Flying Boat, she deviated slightly from the course, missed the destination, and didn't notice in time.

After realizing she had gone off course, Lei Ming at first didn't dare speak up and just wandered aimlessly. It wasn't until she was completely lost in the Fog Sea that she had to admit it. In the end she turned a huge circle before finding the way back.

"Look, Black Shark Warship! We've finally found it!" Lei Ming exclaimed with relief after her Divine Sense detected the Black Shark Warship.

"It's good you're back! I told you you're the smartest!" Ye Liuyun praised her.

These past few days, Lei Ming has been constantly blaming herself.

"It's all my fault, I delayed everyone! How can I be so stupid, unable to do anything right!"

But Ye Liuyun kept comforting her: "Who says you're stupid? You could have guessed I'd sneak out, and you're still stupid? If you were a bit smarter, you'd already be soaring to the heavens!"

"You just were a bit playful. It's fine, just took a little more time! Search slowly, no rush."

Although Ye Liuyun was anxious at heart, he also knew Wu Qingcheng and the others were certainly hoping for his return.

But now that things have come to this, there's no point in blaming Lei Ming. Knowing she was playful, yet making her do such focused work was his own poor planning, not Lei Ming's fault.

During the few days of searching for the Black Shark Warship, Ye Liuyun and Long Nv also helped, and soon found the right direction.

Upon seeing Lei Ming's Flying Boat, Wu Qingcheng and Su Miaoyin immediately rushed out, anxiously wanting to see if Ye Liuyun was inside, whether he had returned, and if he was injured.

Du Yan and the others also noticed and immediately followed out.

Everyone was waiting for the hatch to open, and Ye Liuyun walked out from inside.

When the hatch opened and Ye Liuyun emerged, Wu Qingcheng and Su Miaoyin both shed tears. Their hanging hearts finally relaxed.

Du Yan and the others also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Got it?" Du Yan asked anxiously.

"Got it! But we can't take it out now; we have to wait until we exit the Fog Sea!"

Ye Liuyun smiled to reassure them, then walked over to comfort Wu Qingcheng and Su Miaoyin.

"You kid really are lucky!" Li Sanniang told Ye Liuyun: "You two beautiful wives worry about you to death every day!"

At the sight of their tear‑filled, aggrieved faces, Ye Liuyun knew they must have felt each day like a year!

So he immediately pulled the two of them into his arms, wiping away their tears.

"I made you worry! It's my fault!" Ye Liuyun said softly, apologizing to the two.

After that, he carried the two of them into the warship. Luo Yurou watched from the side, full of envy.

Everyone gave an understanding smile, thinking that without a bit of effort, it would be hard to appease these two great beauties!

Du Yan and the others, together with Lei Ming, immediately returned to the warship and promptly activated it.

They didn't know the details and dared not linger, fearing retaliation from the Food Star Beast. So they all moved, activating the defensive shield and sailing at full speed.

Lei Ming narrated the treasure‑seizing episode to Du Yan and the others.

Ye Liuyun directly took Wu Qingcheng and Su Miaoyin back to the private room to apologize to the two beauties.

After more than half a day, Ye Liuyun finally coaxed Wu Qingcheng and Su Miaoyin, repeatedly promising never to sneak out on adventures again. Finally he recounted the adventure to the two, after which they let him go.

Lei Ming had already finished speaking. Seeing Ye Liuyun emerge, she cautiously asked, "How is it? Did you manage to soothe her? Did Sister Qingcheng say anything to me?"

Ye Liuyun deliberately teased her: "Not yet soothed! She sent me out to tell you to go in and admit your mistake!"

"Huh?" Lei Ming said, sticking out her tongue. "Little brother, you have to save me!"

Ye Liuyun waved his hands repeatedly: "You should be done with it, I can't even save myself! I think Qingcheng is truly angry this time; when you go in, say nice things and really soothe her!"

"Oh my! I'm doomed now!" Lei Ming cried with a mournful face, grabbed Long Nv, and sluggishly prepared to face the impending punishment.

Ye Liuyun told Du Yan: "This is a great harvest, a whole head of Food Star Beast blood. After we go out, I'll share it with you; we won't have to worry about resources anymore!"

"I'll go grill some dishes, and we can drink together to celebrate!" Li Sanniang hurried off, heading to the kitchen to prepare food, and Aizi followed to help.

Du Yan immediately took out wine and took a drink.

"Since ancient times heroes have emerged from youths, indeed! I truly admire you, kid; you dared to attempt such fanciful deeds and actually succeeded!" Du Yan said, drinking and exclaiming.

"Just good luck!" Ye Liuyun modestly said. He believed it was because he received a boost of fortune during the Cangyun Martial Competition.

Du Yan shook his head: "There was indeed a luck factor, but you didn't rely solely on luck!"

"When you previously observed the Food Star Beast and conducted various probes, I was already watching you. You're bold yet meticulous, destined to achieve great deeds!" Du Yan said slowly.

The slope‑foot and Tuozi both nodded, expressing their admiration for Ye Liuyun.

Luo Yurou wore a face of admiration, silently watching Ye Liuyun from the side.

Just as Ye Liuyun felt embarrassed, his Divine Sense suddenly detected a Flying Boat ahead in their direction. Near the Flying Boat, several people were waving at them.

"Huh? What's going on?" Ye Liuyun immediately asked Du Yan to look.

Du Yan, after looking, remained indifferent, neither slowing nor turning, and crashed straight ahead.

Ye Liuyun and Luo Yurou simultaneously looked at Du Yan in astonishment.

"In the mist, what kind of person would stop to ask others for help?" Du Yan didn't explain, but instead asked the two of them.
