His Divine Inspection Technique seemed to have identified something extraordinary.
A drop of sentimental tears?
The blue liquid in his hand really was a tear?
Tears could become divine-rank materials?
An Lin stared at the tear in his hand with incredulity on his face.
Moments later, he looked up at the statue of Xi Haizi with curiosity on his face.
He really wanted to know what kind of love story could make Xi Haizi shed such a valuable tear …
It was a pity that Gu Yu had offered to tell him about Xi Haizi and Tian Chenji, but he had refused.
"An Lin, what are you thinking about?" Lan Xiaoni asked upon seeing An Lin's expression.
"Please add the word 'Big Boss' after my name!" An Lin replied with a solemn expression.
"Alright, Big Boss An Lin!" Lan Xiaoni nodded readily.
She had eaten the Dark Blood Fruit, and her energy was quickly recovering. She was in a very good mood, so she didn't want to argue with An Lin.
An Lin stroked the blue tear. "I'm very curious about the story between Xi Haizi and Tian Chenji. How much do you know?"
"That …" A reminiscent expression appeared on Lan Xiaoni's face.
However, before she had a chance to say anything, the black and white balls of light floated toward the two of them.
"Fated ones, you can choose the light ball world to continue searching for the treasures we left behind," the statue of Xi Haizi interjected.
"Wait." An Lin waved a hand before turning to Lan Xiaoni. "Continue."
"Oh, we have to start with …"
Lan Xiaoni didn't even get a chance to finish her sentence before the statue of Xi Haizi interjected again, "If you don't choose the light ball world, I'll put away all the light balls, and our trip to the tomb will be over."
An Lin: "…"
Lan Xiaoni: "…"
An Lin turned his gaze toward the statue.
Why did this statue seem to be in such a hurry?
Could it be that it was feeling ashamed after seeing Lan Xiaoni recount its past?
My God!
Wasn't it something similar to a puppet NPC or something? Why does it have such emotions?!
"Then I choose this one." An Lin pointed at the white ball.
Lan Xiaoni obediently pointed at the white ball.
The world spun again.
When their vision became clear again, the two of them were already in the clouds.
In front of him was an endless stretch of white clouds. Stepping on them was soft like a sponge.
All around him was a vast and deep blue sky. It was extremely clean and connected with the white clouds in the distance.
This world seemed to only have these two colors. Amidst the simplicity, there was a sense of loneliness and distance.
"Thankfully, there's no one here to bother us. Hurry up and tell me about Xi Haizi and Tian Chenji." An Lin turned toward Lan Xiaoni with a gossipy expression.
A blush appeared on Lan Xiaoni's face upon seeing the scorching light in An Lin's eyes. "I actually don't know much. I've only heard a few seniors mention them to me."
"In ancient times, an extremely terrifying Fiendcelestial appeared in the West Sea. He was known as the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial. At the time, our Spirit Fish Clan was forced into retreat by the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial. Most of the West Sea has become the territory of the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial. "
"Finally, one day, the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial tried to eradicate our Spirit Fish Clan in one fell swoop. At the time, his army even reached the Sea Heart Palace. The Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial was simply too powerful. Even High Priest Xi Haizi and the Clan Leader were no match for him.
"Just as the Spirit Fish Clan was on the brink of extinction, the Heavenly Turtle Tribe, which had always been in seclusion, finally appeared. The two West Sea powers joined forces and finally defeated the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial's army.
"High Priest Tian Chenji of the Heavenly Turtle Tribe was as dazzling as the sun during that battle, and she left a deep impression in the hearts of all the living beings of the Spirit Fish Clan. High Priest Xi Haizi … M-hm, fell in love with Tian Chenji at first sight. After that, he relentlessly pursued her, failed, pursued her, and failed … "
Lan Xiaoni seemed to be a little embarrassed at this point, and she turned her head to look up at the clouds with a melancholic expression, as if she didn't have the face to continue.
An Lin was astonished. A handsome mermaid pursuing a female turtle? Was it that inspirational?
"Both the Spirit Fish Clan and the Heavenly Turtle Tribe objected to this' marriage '. The Spirit Fish Clan felt that it was absurd for such a handsome High Priest to marry a turtle. The Heavenly Turtle Tribe also looked down on Xi Haizi. They said that the High Priest didn't even have a portable turtle shell house, so where did he get the courage to pursue Tian Chenji?
"However, Xi Haizi never gave up …
"For some reason, after Xi Haizi pursued her for several hundred years, Tian Chenji accepted Xi Haizi's pursuit. She accepted this love that was beyond the comprehension of the secular world."
Lan Xiaoni couldn't help but chuckle. "To be honest, I've even imagined the scene of Xi Haizi and Tian Chenji getting married. It would definitely be fun."
An Lin nodded in agreement. That would definitely be a very beautiful scene …
"However, the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial made a comeback, and the West Sea was once again embroiled in a devastating battle. In order to slay the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial, Senior Xi Haizi and Senior Tian Chenji sacrificed the last of their lives to slay the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial, and they discovered an astonishing secret.
"This was a secret that could change the fate of both tribes. However, they felt that it wasn't time to tell their brethren about this secret, so the two of them were buried together at the bottom of the ocean and placed everything within the tomb, waiting for the fated one to open what they had left behind.
"The secret of this tomb was clearly a family matter between the Spirit Fish Clan and the Heavenly Turtle Tribe. Never would I have thought that the Heavenly Turtle Tribe would entrust all of their hopes to a human like you. "
Lan Xiaoni turned to An Lin with her blue eyes after she finished speaking, and there was a hint of pride and confidence that stemmed from her racial superiority.
An Lin smiled. "I also never would I have thought that the Spirit Fish Clan would entrust all of their hopes to you. Underling Lan, I'm not trying to pick on you. Truth be told, without me, this tomb would be over for you. "
Lan Xiaoni: "…"
His words punctured Lan Xiaoni's pride like a balloon.
She instantly deflated with a loud thump.
"Let's go, Underling Lan. Let's see where the treasures of this world are."
An Lin was quite satisfied after listening to Lan Xiaoni's story. Even though he still didn't know the story behind the tears, he had at least gained a rough understanding of Xi Haizi.
M-hm … To be able to relentlessly pursue a female turtle for several hundred years, he had to be a badass!
The two of them didn't walk this time. Instead, they flew.
There were no obstructions, so flying was naturally the fastest.
An Lin unleashed his divine sense to survey their surroundings, but he didn't discover anything special.
This was quite a headache. There were no special areas or abnormal energy, which meant that there were no clues.
They could only be like headless flies, randomly choosing a direction and hurrying on their way.
White clouds covered the sky, and the sky was clear as day.
Thus, they flew for an hour, covering a distance of over five thousand kilometers.
In the end, there was still nothing!
Not even a single life form was to be found, let alone some small monsters!
An Lin fell into a daze as he looked around at the empty heaven and earth.
