Chapter 421: Shy Youji
"However, we have walked almost the entirety of the Tianxuan Continent, yet we still have no clues."
Yi Zhuyue sighed involuntarily as she said this.
Without realizing it, she and Su Chen had been together for so long; thinking back on the days before, she truly felt a sense of emotion.
The atmosphere fell into a long silence once again; clearly, many things were on the verge of being revealed, but for some reason, they had no leads at all.
"Perhaps the Heavenly Dao Great Emperor also did not understand the divine abilities of these four items, but in order to prevent people from the Immortal World from discovering and finding them, he handed them to us and let us bring them to the Tianxuan Continent."
After a long silence, it was Ziwei Xianzi who spoke first.
Once this idea was voiced, it immediately received the agreement of everyone.
That's right, perhaps the destiny of these four items did not lie in the Tianxuan Continent, or perhaps it did, but the Heavenly Dao Great Emperor did not know.
The Great Emperor Dragon had immense fame and prestige in the Immortal World, and was an object of admiration for countless Immortal clans; he even had deep relationships with big shots like Tianji Laoren.
Since these items were related to Su Chen, if there were a chance, those people would definitely try every means to obtain them; rather than letting such an uncertain factor remain in the Immortal World, it was better to bring it here and bury it completely.
Furthermore, the passage between the Tianxuan Continent and the Immortal World had already been severed, so even if they wanted to come here, they had no way to do so.
Thinking of this, the group instantly felt that what Ziwei Xianzi said had a high degree of credibility.
"Thinking about these things here right now is not the answer. Youji, since you previously saw a forbidden area on the side of the Sea Clan, why don't we go take a look?"
Su Chen said with a smile.
"That is fine, but you are humans; your movements will be significantly slowed down on the seabed, and you must rely on the Water Avoidance Curse."
Youji Nuhuang nodded, "It just so happens that there are still some matters regarding the Sea Clan that I haven't handled; now is a good time to go and see."
"That is true, after all, I am vigorous and full of spirit, and having tossed you about for half a day, I accidentally delayed your return to the seabed."
Su Chen nodded earnestly upon hearing this, but his words carried heavy teasing.
Once these words were out, Ziwei Xianzi's face instantly turned bright red; these words were clearly what she had said just a moment ago.
She had thought this matter would be glossed over, but she hadn't expected Su Chen to be waiting for her here.
Youji Nuhuang also felt a bit shy in her heart, not knowing how much Su Chen had accepted just now; after all, she had already made up her mind to stay by Su Chen's side, and in front of intimate sisters, the words she spoke were inevitably a bit explicit.
"Do not make fun of me."
Ziwei Xianzi was blushing, unable to help turning her body to the side, feeling very embarrassed.
Su Chen said generously: "I am your man; if you praise me for being vigorous, I would be too happy to be anything but, so how could I be making fun of you?"
As his voice fell, Ziwei Xianzi did not know what to say for a moment; although that was the truth, saying it in front of everyone was just very shameful.
Yi Zhuyue pursed her lips and also spoke up at this moment: "Alright, alright, important matters come first. Let's hurry to the Sea Clan now; if we are early, we can go to the Shengdi on the way back."
Anyone with eyes could see that Yi Zhuyue was jealous of Su Chen and Ziwei Xianzi, but she just wouldn't say it directly.
Youji Nuhuang couldn't help but glance at Yi Zhuyue; she had always felt that Yi Zhuyue was indifferent to worldly affairs and was a cold, reclusive person, but now she had become like this for the sake of love.
The sisters had been separated for a long time; she never thought that upon meeting again, things would have changed so much—truly, time flies.
Su Chen nodded. Before leaving, he suddenly thought of the crystal stone Meng Huo had given him and couldn't help but want to find Natasha. Throughout their journey, Natasha had always been very gentle, but Su Chen knew that Natasha had always felt very inferior because her cultivation was not strong enough, though this was not something Su Chen could control.
Now that there was an opportunity to become stronger, presumably Natasha's mood would be a little better.
"Meng Huo gave me a crystal stone that the Mermaid Race can use, and I am thinking of sending it to Natasha first."
Speaking of this, Su Chen's gaze was gentle.
Although Su Chen had many women by his side, he could take care of everyone's preferences and thoughts.
He appeared carefree on the surface, but in reality, he was also a very meticulous person.
Youji Nuhuang instantly became interested and wanted to see what that crystal stone looked like.
Su Chen did not hide it and took the crystal stone out directly.
"Perhaps you can go later, because this crystal stone can also act to allow freedom in the sea, so there is no need to use the Water Avoidance Curse, and it will not slow down your movements."
Youji Nuhuang took one look and immediately saw the trick to it.
Seeing that Youji Nuhuang recognized it, Su Chen couldn't help but look at her with a puzzled gaze.
"This thing is a crystallization of the Mermaid Race. Legend has it that it is only born after a very powerful mermaid dies. It contains very powerful energy. Not only that, this thing can be used together with the Universe Pearl. The Universe Pearl is also a great treasure of the Mermaid Race; if the two are combined, they will exert great effect."
Youji Nuhuang slowly explained.
"So that's how it is; it was a lucky strike after all."
After hearing this, Su Chen couldn't help but nod; after all, Natasha did indeed have the Universe Pearl.
"It's just that this thing can only be fused with the Universe Pearl once. Fortunately, the item in your hand is of good quality, and it looks like it has existed for a long time."
Youji Nuhuang said slowly.
Su Chen nodded again, having a rough idea in his heart, and then the group headed to the seabed.
The ocean of Nanman was different from other places; the further down they went, the more the bone-chilling cold swept over them. The entire seabed had almost no light at all, and it could almost be said that one could not see their own fingers.
Su Chen had once read reports about the seabed and generally knew what the environment here was like.
"I never imagined that your daily environment would be so arduous."
Yi Zhuyue couldn't help but rub her cold arms; even with Spiritual Power protecting her body, she still felt a piercing, bone-chilling cold.
She looked at Youji Nuhuang with a bit of pity.
Youji Nuhuang, however, did not feel that there was anything bad about it; although there was no light here and it was a bit cold, she was not good at dealing with people anyway, and she quite liked it here.
The group arrived at a magnificent palace. In the gloomy seabed, this palace seemed out of place, emitting a faint fluorescence, with countless Night Pearls embedded within it.
From time to time, a few small fish swam about in the seabed, looking lazy; seeing the group, they didn't seem to sense any danger.
A few bold little fish even came before Su Chen and happily circled a few times.
