Chapter 595 (1/2)

As the sun rose, a red glow appeared at the horizon and a rippling flame was reflected onto the sea surface. This scene was very dazzling.

The princess of the Clam Clan, Yamei, had already woken up. Now, she was sobbing while hugging her younger brother Sijiate who had also woken up with a hangover. Fortunately, she had survived, but the sad thing was the huge debt of blood.

Long Yi carefully sized up this clam princess. Her face was very elegant, especially her clear and beautiful eyes: they were limpid and distant; her skin was tender and soft as if water would come out if he pinched her. Other than the purple sh.e.l.l on her back, she could be regarded as a devastating beauty even among those of the Human race. And suddenly thinking about those alluring women who were captured in the fairy tales of his previous world, all of whom were lovely enough to cause the fall of a country, Long Yi smiled in a daze. But, by coincidence, this smile was seen by Yamei who had just stopped sobbing, and she immediately swallowed her words of grat.i.tude, thinking he was gloating over other people's misfortunes.

Long Yi, however, didn't notice this. He was thinking about all sorts of strange races within this world. If not for experiencing everything himself and etching everything in his memory, he truly would have believed that he was immersed in a tediously long dream where even his real memories had become messy and blurred.

Yamei glared at Long Yi, but she was confronted with his black eyes s.h.i.+ning with an inexplicable l.u.s.ter. Although his eyes were not focused, there was a kind of attraction, and she then understood that that smile of just now had not been directed at her.

Feeling the gaze of Yamei, Long Yi came back to his senses, and touching his face, he asked, ”Is there something on my face?”

Yame blushed a little, and retracting her gaze, she softly said, ”Thank you for saving us.”

Long Yi just smiled and said, ”No need to be so courteous. Your younger brother has already thanked us; let's end it with that.”

Yamei didn't speak again. After pondering for a while, she suddenly raised her head and asked, ”You are a human, and she is an exiled mermaid. Why are you here?”

Long Yi was somewhat surprised in his heart, this Yamei had immediately asked such a fundamental question. Even after suffering the horrible disaster of the extermination of her entire family, she was still able to calmly think of this issue. She was truly cautious and meticulous. Compared to her that simple younger brother, she was much better in this aspect.

”We came here to look for Undersea City and figure out the truth about the exile of the Mermaid Imperial Clan,” Long Yi told the truth without concealing anything.

”Then, you want us to show the way?” Yamei was startled for a moment, and then her eyes instantly became sharp.

”Yes.” Long Yi calmly looked straight at her.

Yamei stared at Long Yi for a long time, and could only discern that he was speaking the truth. Her expression eased, and she said, ”I can lead you two there because I believe that you will not harm our Sea Race; moreover, I also want to find out the truth of this genocide.”

The eyebrows of Long Yi shot up, and he asked, ”Do you believe in me so much?”

Yamei faintly said, ”I believe in my own vision.”

Long Yi smiled and looked straight into the beautiful eyes of Yamei. They were glimmering with insightful wisdom. Not long after, Yamei broke the eye contact and moved her gaze to one side.

”Since we are in agreement, rest well. We will go to Undersea City after you have completely recovered,” Long Yi said with a faint smile. It was not hard for Long Yi to understand the thoughts of Yamei who had barely escaped with her life. If he couldn't understand her selfish calculations, he would not be Long Yi. Rather than saying that she was willing to lead Long Yi to Undersea City because she believed in him, it was better to say that she was gambling. While helping Long Yi, she also wanted to use the strength of Long Yi to find out everything about her family's death at the same time. Of course, they had this tacit understanding.

Afternoon: the sun rode high in the sky.

With Yamei and Sijiate leading in front, Long Yi and Liuli followed them toward the bottom of the sea. The sh.e.l.ls on the backs of the Clam Clan were the best means to wander about in the sea. And Liuli was like a stranded fish put back into water in the sea: her golden fishtail gracefully swayed as she leisurely swam. As for Long Yi, he gathered internal force in his legs and swam forward, but his actions looked somewhat lacking in

artistic terms. However, since he had already reached the fifth later of AoTianJue, his skin could absorb oxygen even within the sea, so he was also relaxed.

After these people reached more than three thousand meters into the sea, it was already like night. At this depth, only a very small amount of scattered starlight reached here. At this point, Yamei and Sajiate stopped.

”Now, we need to go a further 10,000 meters, and we will see the entrance to Undersea City. This entrance is relatively better to sneak through, but the surroundings around this entrance are harsh. Not only are there bloodthirsty sharks, Heaven Slaying Squid and other very dangerous sea monsters, but there are also poisonous swamps. Therefore, other than some strong adventure groups of Sea Race, no one else dares to operate there,

Yamei turned around and said to Liuli and Long Yi behind her.

”Is it that dangerous?” Long Yi asked. One could say that the undersea world was a world unknown to him. He didn't know what land-based magical beast those bloodthirsty sharks and heaven slaying squids had an equivalent ranking too.

”There is a certain level of danger, but those sea monsters have their own territory. Generally, there will only be one per sea area. Therefore, there shouldn't be any problems with your strength,” Yamei explained.
