Chapter 173: Divert away
Although this transparent coral did not come from the Forbidden Sea, it was still a rare find on the seabed. Wilman smashed it with force, and a little bit of transparent liquid flowed out, merging with the blood that was gradually spreading around his body.
The transparent coral was unlike Lanny's colored coral. The colored coral had a hard but thin outer wall, and was almost entirely filled with abundant sap. However, the ordinary transparent coral had a thick outer wall, with only some transparent liquid flowing through the thin hollow tubes in the middle.
But the familiar blood might be able to deceive Morinbia for a while. Besides, Wilman had some other preparations.
He pulled out a necklace with a coin hanging from his neck. This coin was taken out by his father when he was pearl diving from a huge clam that had been there for who knows how many years. It faintly exuded a divine aura.
So his father carefully buried it deep underground, and only told him about it when he was almost an adult.
Any artifact that had even the slightest connection to the gods was strictly guarded by the empire, so many years passed and my father never unearthed it before his death, and he didn't know what the coin's purpose was.
It now seems that everything was arranged by God, and this coin has finally realized its value.
If this still doesn't attract Morinbia, then there's nothing anyone can do, so he has no choice but to gamble with his own life. Lanny truly lives up to his reputation as his son; like him, he's a born gambler.
But a few moments later, the unusual ripples in the water brought a smile to his face. Here it comes.
Molinbia stormed out of the central hall, the surrounding seawater whispering in its ears that more and more little insects were coming from outside, and that the covetousness of Jiang Yu and the probing and harassment of its territory by others were bothering it.
But it soon sensed an unusual aura, the scent of blood from the person it had once made a pact with, and at the same time, it also detected a faint trace of divine power.
This is impossible.
Without even thinking, it rushed in that direction, easily deceived by Wilman's carefully laid trap.
The instant Wilman sensed the unusual fluctuations in the seawater, he severed the transparent threads with a wave of his hand. At the same time, the sea monster, carrying its master, rushed out, and the boy fired a signal. Gray Island and Mackerel instantly and rapidly submerged, like a blade of light piercing into the center of the forbidden sea.
Time was limited and short; they had to do everything in their power before the monster turned back.
Mackerel was fast, and they were lucky. They spotted a building surrounded by a giant bubble from a great distance. Without even needing to intuition, Gray Island knew that Lord Jiang Yu must be there.
The mackerel seemed to understand its master perfectly, and without a moment's hesitation, it swooped straight down.
At that moment, Jiang Yu was struggling with a pile of seaweed in the bubbles. She tried to take all the seaweed off and build a new bed in the corner. Every word Da Kui said made her no longer want to stay on the altar. She didn't believe a word of what he meant by "for her own good." He was clearly trying to change her and make her stay at the bottom of the sea forever.
If she had actually traveled directly to this seabed from the beginning, she might not have had such a strong sense of resistance; perhaps she would have resigned herself to her fate long ago.
But she already knew that she had forgotten an important memory. Although she hadn't remembered it yet, every time she thought of that silver-haired phantom, it made her heart ache. Moreover, she began to recall other fragments, and even other people.
Who is it that has those weeping, azure eyes and dazzling blonde hair?
So when she was holding a bunch of seaweed and her eyes met those of a person and a beast that suddenly appeared outside the bubble, she widened her eyes in surprise. This was the first person she had seen since arriving at the bottom of the sea, besides Morinbia and Triton.
Jiang Yu first noticed the enormous sea beast. If you only looked at its head, it looked like a ferocious shark. But in addition to the shark's snout and sharp teeth, it also had gorgeous mane and tentacles. Its large eyes looked very ferocious, and there was a smaller eye next to each of them. There was a circle of gorgeous patterns around the eye sockets.
Its most beautiful feature is its tail fin, which is divided into six petals like a flower and floats in the seawater, adding a touch of beauty to its fierce appearance.
But compared to the enormous, incredibly beautiful and terrifying Morinbia, it seems somewhat insignificant.
Jiang Yu quickly focused his attention on the knight riding the sea beast. His first reaction was, "Wow, that's so cool! To be able to ride such a majestic and beautiful sea beast!" His second thought was, "Who is this person? Is he friend or foe?"
However, Jiang Yu wasn't too worried. This was Molinbia's territory, and she believed that no one could destroy its giant bubble and harm it under Molinbia's nose.
Huiyu was also taken aback. No wonder his boss was so obsessed with this Lord Jiangyu; she was indeed very beautiful. However... he blushed slightly and looked away. Lord Jiangyu was dressed far too revealingly. Her upper body was fine, but her two smooth and delicate long legs were exposed.
If the boss knew he'd seen this view, he'd probably gouge his eyes out and feed them to the sharks.
Fortunately, the black mask covering his face hid his shame and embarrassment.
Gray Island wasted no time. Although he could hold his breath for a long time in the deep sea, he couldn't speak underwater. He took out a white silk handkerchief with writing on it and approached the huge bubble that covered the entire building, trying to slip it in, but found that he couldn't break through the edge of the bubble at all.
Was he trying to get closer and hand her something? Jiang Yu understood his meaning, but even she couldn't get out of this giant bubble. So she said, "It's no use. Only Morinbia can freely enter and exit this bubble."
Upon hearing Jiang Yu's words, Hui Yu thought for a moment and hurriedly unfolded the silk handkerchief, beckoning to Jiang Yu to come and see what was written on it.
Jiang Yu put down the seaweed and quickly moved to the edge of the building, dragging the bubbles along with her. She found that she could read the unfamiliar characters written on the silk without any problems. It was very clear to her, which further confirmed that she had formed a deep connection with this world.
The silk handkerchief first read: "Lord Jiang Yu, do not be afraid, I have come to save you." Then followed two simple paragraphs, each spoken in a different tone:
"Xiaoyu, I'm so sorry that as your husband I couldn't protect you. If you're safe now, please hold on a little longer. Qingyin and I will do everything we can to save you. —Yi"
"You bitch, you still owe me money, you can't die now."
Husband? Qingyin? Yi? Jiang Yu looked at these keywords and felt quite shocked. This was more than just a close connection; how could she even have a husband? She covered her head and said to the man outside the bubble, "I don't know who you are. Are you someone sent to rescue me?"
Gray Island nodded, patted the mackerel, and the mackerel's tail slammed heavily onto the bubble. Unfortunately, although the bubble looked fragile, it showed no sign of breaking.
"It's no use!" Jiang Yu shouted. "Besides, if the bubble breaks, I'll be crushed by the deep-sea pressure immediately."
“I have amnesia!” Jiang Yu looked at Huiyu seriously. “I don’t remember anything or anyone. Go back and tell the people who are trying to save me that Molinbia wants to use the altar to change my body so that I will stay at the bottom of the sea forever with it. Think of a way quickly, and also…”
"Do you know who the man with ice-blue eyes and silver-white hair is? He sealed my brow with divine power and protected me." Jiang Yu seized the opportunity to ask the question that concerned her most.
This time, the man in front of her definitely couldn't save her. Although she didn't know what method they used to lure Morinbia away, it was still too difficult to destroy the bubble and take her away from the seabed; it was simply impossible.
Then she should seize the opportunity and at least find out something.
Upon hearing her question, Huiyu pointed to the white silk handkerchief. Jiang Yu looked over and realized that he was referring to the two characters "Qingyin".
Is Qingyin his name? The man with the silver-white hair is called Qingyin?
Then her eyes widened as the man's finger moved to the bottom of two more words.
Those two words were—husband.
