XIAO SHUXIANG'S

265 - Sea Fairy

The cup made of ceramics in Lan Guan Zhi's hand trembled, making the water inside as it spilled and soaked the hand of this white-clothed youth.

Ling Lang Tian asked back what Lan Guan Zhi was thinking. He frowned as the young man from the Eastern Continent beside him called out the name Xiao Shuxiang.

"Young Master Lan, what exactly is the connection between you and that annoying boy?"

"..."

Lan Guan Zhi was silent for a moment and then replied that he was only friends with Xiao Shuxiang. This relationship should not be questioned.

"Are you just friends? No more than that?"

"Mn? Mn,"

Lan Guan Zhi certainly did not know what to explain to Ling Lang Tian, because indeed his relationship with Xiao Shuxiang was only limited to friends.

What else is expected? Although his friend often acted shamelessly like teasing him, but he was still sane, where interested in bars.

But his feelings are uncomfortable now. The message he had sent Xiao Shuxiang all this time had to wait for five new days to arrive, but then the time had become three days.

He knew that his friend was no longer in the Elf World, it was likely that Xiao Shuxiang had traveled to the Northern Continent. It's just, the location must be his friend less he knows. Xiao Shuxiang simply said he was on board.

"Shuxiang's.."

Seeing Lan Guan Zhi's eyes that seemed to contain anxiety made Ling Lang Tian also feel uncomfortable. I don't know what happened to his sister's 'Protective Guardian.

Lan Guan Zhi though wanted to, he also did not know where to look for Xiao Shuxiang. He could only hope that his friend was in a good state.

Right now, Hu Li continued to dive into the sea in search of his Young Master Xiao. Meanwhile, Liu Xi Ling assisted some cultivators looking for Xiao Shuxiang by flying through the air.

Fan Chuan and his crew took over Zanjin's ship. The pirates were tightly bound and put into iron confinement which was heavily guarded by four cultivators.

Fan Chuan and the others continued their journey on the pirate ship, naturally while searching for Xiao Shuxiang. They did not know that the young man they were looking for was in a place that had a close relationship with his dislike of water.

Xiao Shuxiang slowly opened his eyes, the first thing he felt was a piercing coldness and dizziness in his head.

Xiao Shuxiang's gaze began to clear, he could see the ceiling above him resembled rocks, but it was white. His eyes slowly caught a sweet smiling face towards him.

"My husband, thank goodness you're awake,"

Such a beautiful voice was sweeping away but it did not make Xiao Shuxiang calm at all.

"I must be dreaming. Obviously just dreaming.."

Xiao Shuxiang rubbed his eyes slowly, but still he saw a figure that resembled a beautiful girl with ears similar to fish wings.

Xiao Shuxiang let out a slow breath, so he remembered the artificial spell he had always uttered when calling out the Celestial Emperor Sword.

"The Human World, the Demon World, the Elf World, and now.."

Xiao Shuxiang exhaled again. One by one the past he had intentionally ignored came back again. And obviously this place is one of them.

He slowly woke up, he realized he was on a green bed that was cold and chewy.

"My husband, you're finally home. 300 Years I've been waiting for you, I don't think I'll ever find you again,"

!

The beautiful girl that Xiao Shuxiang had previously seen had a face so young, it appeared to be 17 years old. His true age is much older than that.

Xiao Shuxiang was clearly jolted when he received a sudden hug. She asked in a soft voice for this beautiful girl to take off her embrace.

"Ren'Er, your calculations are wrong. Three hundred years isn't it your age? And when do we get married? You don't joke.."

The flow of blood and Qi within Xiao Shuxiang's body was still chaotic. The coldness he felt was uncomfortable, similar to the first time he had come to this place.

The pink-haired girl who had just hugged him was named Mei Ren, a Demonic Beast who had once helped Xiao Shuxiang in his first life. When he fell into the sea and almost drowned.

"My husband, don't you remember? We're married and you promised to give me a thousand and one hundred eggs. My world is lonely without you.."

!!

"When did I promise you that? You might be able to influence the sailors and sink their ships, but you can't influence me.."

Xiao Shuxiang was clearly protesting, he remembered all his past and every utterance he had ever uttered. His whole life, he never promised anything with a fish.

".. I'm going home, my friends are waiting. Where's my sword? I have to go home.."

"I won't let you go anywhere. We haven't seen each other in a long time and you want to leave me again?"

The atmosphere around Xiao Shuxiang turned colder than the previous one. Mei Ren's pink hair instantly turned black and grew increasingly longer.

Xiao Shuxiang gulped, this girl can be very scary when it completely changes shape. He tried to convince the girl to let him go.

"Ren'Er, you know clearly what happened to the Fire Phoenix when it went into the water. Are you trying to kill me?"

Xiao Shuxiang again asked where his sword was. But the beautiful girl even put on a sour face. Mei Ren had been waiting for Xiao Shuxiang for a long time, but this young man still wanted to go home.

"You haven't apologized to me for leaving suddenly on our wedding day. So don't expect me to give up your sword,"

"Grandmother, you know that your world and my world cannot be put together. And you have to remember, I'm a fish-eating creature. You wouldn't be happy with me at all,"

Xiao Shuxiang's location was a world that existed in the depths of the sea, a place where Demonic Beasts in the form of beautiful fish lived. They are called Sea Elves or Sirens.

Mei Ren was one of the Sea Elves, he was the culprit who saved Xiao Shuxiang's life in his first life, as well as the person who had made this young man uncomfortable with water.

Mei Ren obviously did not care, he said he would return Xiao Shuxiang's sword when the young man met his brothers.

"If you dare to call me 'Grandmother', I'll make sure you never return to your world again. Come on along,"

Mei Ren began to change her attitude, she embraced Xiao Shuxiang's left arm and led him to a special room inside this palace.

Sea Elves like Mei Ren can make an island disappear. If they cooperated, it was not impossible to make the Eastern Continent sink and disappear from the World Map.

'Water is more than the mainland', Xiao Shuxiang clearly knew this. Hence he should be able to get Yinng xiong and then leave.

"Ren'Er, I'm on an important mission right now,"

"I knew. You're going to the Northern Continent and save Elder Da Lin's grandson, aren't you?"

!!

Xiao Shuxiang was surprised, how could this creature know about its mission. More importantly, why could Mei Ren know the name of Elder Da Lin?

"He's my husband,"

"What?! You must be kidding me. That's impossible, your words don't make any sense at all,"

Mei Ren smiled and said that it was up to Xiao Shuxiang to believe him or not. Merely, this young man had better think about, how he could know the name of Elder Da Lin and about that mission.

".. Three hundred years is too young for me. I saw Da Lin grow up from a small child until he sailed the sea carrying his offspring.."

There was no way one could sail the sea without a hitch, Mei Ren and her brothers were the ones helping Da Lin secretly.

Devils sleeping in the Southern Continent were also a threat to the Siren World, drowning the continent would only make matters worse.

".. The devil can suck the life of a living creature. You should know, there are even more lives in this world than in yours,"

"Mn, Elder Da Lin once said that Devils in the Southern Continent cannot be killed before he gets up. The task for the Old Bangka's descendants is only to seal the Devil to stop his resurrection, and my job is to bring him home safely,"

Xiao Shuxiang continued to be embraced by Mei Ren, he was clearly curious as to why this girl was helping the Old Bangka. However Mei Ren still replied that she was the wife of Elder Da Lin.

"You don't brag, Auntie. That old Bangka never told me anything about you. I can't believe it,"

"Son, I told you to call me 'Ren'Er'. My face isn't that old until you can call it 'Auntie'."

Mei Ren and Xiao Shuxiang arrived at a room in which there was a large pond. There are six beautiful girls with different colored hair.

Their bodies from the waist up are human bodies, while from the waist down are fish tails.

There are three people who have a double fin on their waist, while one person has a fin on the back of their waist.

Not only were the six beautiful girls, Xiao Shuxiang could also see the seven girls in colorful clothes, they were gathering at one corner and listening to a young man playing a five-stringed Guqin.

The young man's clothes were yellowish-white. Just like the others, he had fish-shaped ears.

"Ren'Er?"

The young man Xiao Shuxiang saw stopped his play and smiled towards Mei Ren. From the looks of it, the man only saw Mei Ren one and did not look at him at all who was being embraced by this beautiful girl.

"Hm? Ren'Er, who is that young man beside you?"

The look on the face of the young man who was still sitting surrounded by the girls seemed to change, he gave Xiao Shuxiang a cold look.

"He's husband-"

"I'm his adopted grandson. He pulled me from the top and brought me here because I've been away without saying goodbye,"

Xiao Shuxiang smiled awkwardly. He clearly knew that the young man who seemed to be one of these Sea Elves liked Mei Ren. The young man's eyes were similar to those of Zong Ming as he approached Ying Liu.

Mei Ren himself looked annoyed that Xiao Shuxiang was cutting off his words. But before he gave this young man beside him a lesson, Xiao Shuxiang first gave him a warning in a half-whispering voice.

"Don't make me have enemies in this world. My life has been complicated,"

Mei Ren pouted slightly, but the next second her facial features returned to normal, as well as the color and length of her hair.

Xiao Shuxiang was greeted warmly by the Mei Ren brothers, as well as the handsome young man who turned out to be a Young King.

In this place, he got more detailed information about the Southern Continent as well as the location of Elder Da Lin's descendants trapped inside the Eternal Ice.

".. You must study well the Nine World Gate Key. That'll help you later,"

!!

"Where do you know I have it?"

Xiao Shuxiang frowned, Mei Ren already knew too much about what he had been storing all this time without himself knowing how the beautiful Demonic Beast did it.

Mei Ren replied she was told by Xiao Shuxiang's own sword. His words clearly made the person in question surprised.

".. You have an interesting sword,"

"Yinng xiong, since when did my sword become a gossip. Where's my gun now?"

Mei Ren pulled out a strand of her hair, she then blew away the soft hair that slowly turned into a thin grain of light, condensing, then turning into a sword that Xiao Shuxiang was very familiar with.

Ying xiong gave off a dim red light when held by its owner. He then summoned his own sword sheath filled with restraint seals.

Xiao Shuxiang inserted Ying xiong into his Semestal Bracelet. He again listened to the explanation from Mei Ren and the Sea Elves while sitting quietly.

He seemed to be unaware that the flow of blood and Qi within his body was slowly returning to normal.

"You can call me Man Yue. Ever since you got back up, we've been watching you. The upper world is already too much danger, and the worst is after your life.."

Xiao Shuxiang sensed the handsome young man had a lot of information about his mission. This will certainly be an important thing that is likely to make it easier for him.

There was no suspicion towards Xiao Shuxiang, as he knew Mei Ren well enough and he did not smell any scent of lies on the bodies of these Sea Elves.
