Time flew by, and ten years passed in a flash.
On this day, ten years later, a huge silhouette finally entered everyone's sight.
Nie Meixue stared at the silhouette, and a trace of relief appeared in her eyes. She looked back at them and said with a smile, "Everyone, we have arrived at Star Sea City."
"Swish!"
Wutian and the other two opened their eyes one after another, stood up, and looked ahead.
There was a huge island in the distant horizon. Because it was too far away, they couldn't see the scenery on the island clearly.
However, the sea around the island was very calm. The sun was shining, and the breeze was blowing. Layers of golden ripples appeared on the sea surface, which was quite pleasing to the eye.
Mo Xin retracted her gaze and looked at Xu Yi, asking, "Sister Yi, how are you doing?"
"Soon. I'm confident that I can break through to the first tribulation divine realm in 50 years at most."
Xu Yi smiled, glanced at Wutian beside her, and said, "It's all thanks to Li Buluan's divine power of fire. Otherwise, I don't know how long it would take."
Wutian said, "You're too modest. If your aptitude is not good enough, no matter how much divine power of fire you have, it won't be of any use."
Nie Meixue pursed her lips into a smile and said gratefully, "All of you don't have to be modest. If it wasn't for all of you escorting us on this trip, I'm afraid the Ninth Heaven Kunpeng and I would have already died on the Death Island in the Gray Python Sea Region.
Xu Yi shook her head and said, "Sister Xin and I are just supporting roles. Li Buluan is the main character. If you want to thank someone, thank him!"
Nie Meixue said, "Of course. When we return to Star Sea City, I will report it to the patriarch. I believe the patriarch will give you a generous gift."
"Meixue, you're finally back."
At this moment, a deep voice came from the horizon.
Then, in their sight, a middle-aged man in white cut through the sky and appeared on the back of Kunpeng in an instant.
"Meixue greets the patriarch."
Nie Meixue bowed and immediately said, "I didn't disappoint the patriarch. I brought Qiu Yu back safely."
"Thank you for your hard work."
The middle-aged man laughed, but there was a trace of pain between his brows.
"This is what Meixue should do. Right, Patriarch, let me introduce them to you. They were sent by Lu Lan and Demon God Qin Ming to escort Qiu Yu and me …"
Unexpectedly, before Nie Meixue could begin her introduction, the middle-aged man waved his hand and said, "There's no need for that."
Then, he took out three Space Bracelets from his bosom and said indifferently, "My three little friends, this is a small gift as a reward for your hard work. Please accept it and go back directly!"
Wutian and the other two raised their eyebrows.
Nie Meixue's eyebrow couldn't help but slightly frown as she hurriedly said, "Patriarch, it was all thanks to them that I was able to turn misfortune into fortune and rush back to Star Sea City within twenty years …"
"I know."
Without waiting for Nie Meixue to finish, the middle-aged man interrupted her and said expressionlessly, "My three little friends, logically speaking, since you helped me bring my daughter back, I should let you go to Star Sea City and receive you well. However, my daughter is in danger now and I really don't have the mood to accompany you. So, I hope that you can bear with it."
"Patriarch, you can't do this …"
Nie Meixue panicked.
Previously, she said that she wanted to thank them properly. But now, not only did the patriarch not say a word of gratitude, he even chased them away. What was this?
However, the middle-aged man didn't give her the slightest chance. After stuffing the three Space Bracelets into Wutian and the other two's hands, he said, "My three little friends, since you were sent to escort my daughter, I believe that you are reasonable people and won't pester endlessly."
With that, he extended his hand and gestured for them to go ahead.
To be honest, Wutian and the other two's minds were in a mess.
What were they doing here?
Wasn't it just escorting Nie Qiuyu?
Along the way, they had experienced many dangers and tribulations. They had even almost died on the Death Island. It wasn't easy for them to send Nie Qiuyu here. But now, they hadn't even seen what Star Sea City was like and the other party had already ordered them to leave.
They had put in so much effort, but they still didn't get anything?
"Hu!"
Xu Yi took a deep breath and said indifferently, "Although we aren't big shots, we still know how to be considerate. Since the patriarch has ordered us to leave, we naturally won't stay any longer. As for the so-called reward, as the strongest disciple of the Heavenly Palace, we don't lack this little bit. You can keep it for yourself!"
With that, Xu Yi turned around and left.
The middle-aged man's body stiffened and his expression was somewhat unnatural.
"As the patriarch of a clan, he doesn't even know the basic etiquette of hospitality. It seems that the people of the Sea Spirit Clan are lacking in manners."
Mo Xin shook her head and left as well.
"Little girl, what can you say and what can't be said? I hope you can use your brain to think about it, lest trouble comes from the mouth." The middle-aged man's expression gradually darkened, and his tone was full of threat.
However, Mo Xin didn't buy it at all. She glanced back at him disdainfully and left without looking back.
Seeing this, Wutian's eyes flickered, and then he said with a smile, "Come on, let me see what treasures are in the Space Bracelets."
"Li Buluan, can you have some backbone?" Mo Xin immediately turned back and said angrily.
Wutian shook his head indifferently, looked at the patriarch of the Sea Spirit Clan, and said with a smile, "Only an idiot would refuse a reward. Patriarch, am I right?"
"Little brother, you're sensible."
The middle-aged man had a smile on his face. When the three space bracelets were handed to Wutian, his eyes flashed with disdain.
Wutian pretended not to see it. He took the three Space Bracelets and sank his divine thoughts into them. He saw that each Space Bracelet contained tens of thousands of spiritual essences, tens of billions of essences, and an Imperial Weapon.
Immediately, Wutian pursed his lips and sneered, "Patriarch, although an idiot would refuse a reward, is this a reward? Do you know how many resources I gave Nie Meixue and Kunpeng of the Ninth Heaven along the way? Do you want to send us away with this rubbish? Or is it that your Sea Spirit Clan is so poor that you can only take out this little? If that's the case, you'd better keep it for yourself. It's a little contribution I made to your Sea Spirit Clan. "
Wutian didn't care how ugly the middle-aged man's face was. He threw the three Space Bracelets at his feet and shook his head, saying, "People must know how to respect others in order to be respected by others. Nie Meixue does this better than someone else. Nie Meixue, we'll meet again if fate wills it."
Wutian smiled, turned around, and soared into the sky.
"Oh, by the way, if the Sea Spirit Clan is really short on resources, you can send people to the Imperial City to find me. I have the ability to take out hundreds of thousands of Imperial medicines, trillions of elemental essences, and tens of thousands of Imperial Weapons. If you want to ask why, I can only say that I have no choice. I have the resources, so I can be willful, haha …"
With a rampant laugh, Wutian left in a dignified manner.
After catching up to Xu Yi and Mo Xin, Mo Xin immediately rolled her eyes at him and said, "You bastard, I thought you really took a fancy to the reward he gave. It turns out you just want to take the opportunity to humiliate him. But it's really satisfying."
Wutian smiled faintly and said, "That trash isn't enough for me to squander."
"Don't say that. After all, this is someone else's territory. If we anger someone later and he shamelessly attacks us regardless of his status, we won't be able to call for help."
Xu Yi said. Although she said that, her voice was very loud and clearly fell into the middle-aged man's ears. It made him clench his fists and murderous intent filled his eyes.
"Haha, you're right. Let's go, lest we become an eyesore," Wutian said with a faint smile.
Then, the three of them flew into the sky and soon disappeared from Nie Meixue and the middle-aged man's sight.
Nie Meixue withdrew her gaze and asked in confusion, "Patriarch, aren't you usually very wise? Why did you make such a low-level mistake today?"
The middle-aged man said with a sullen face, "Meixue, your temper has risen after going out. You even dare to teach me a lesson?"
"Meixue doesn't dare. It's just that your previous actions were simply humiliating them."
After she finished speaking, Nie Meixue let out a long sigh and said, "Patriarch, let me tell you the truth. All three of them possess extremely high statuses in the northern territory, and their natural talent is extremely shocking. Moreover, all of them are proud and arrogant people. Your actions today have undoubtedly caused huge trouble for our Sea Spirit Race!"
"Status? Talent? "
The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "Meixue, let's go back first. Tell me about the three of them on the way."
"Among the three of them, one is a peerless genius valued by the Demon Lord Tengoku. One is the strongest disciple of the Heavenly Palace. Even Lu Lan and Qin Ming can't stop praising her. The last one is also a disciple of the Heavenly Palace. Although her cultivation is the same as mine, she is qualified to enter the Divine Realm. This means that it hasn't been ten thousand years since she was born …"
"In less than ten thousand years, her cultivation has reached the Great Perfection of the Great Emperor Realm?"
"Yes, this kind of person can be called a peerless genius. The most important thing is Li Buluan of the Alliance. He is not only extremely mysterious, but also very vengeful. He even dared to kill the younger brother of the Demon God Qin Ming. The most important thing is that he alone solved all the crises in the three Sea Areas we passed. That's why I said that you have caused big trouble …"
The two of them gradually went away.
She didn't know that Wutian and the other two didn't leave immediately.
The three of them were hidden in a layer of clouds in the sky, looking down below, their eyes emitting strands of bright light.
After a while, Mo Xin withdrew her gaze and frowned, "Li Buluan, are you sure you want to sneak into Star Sea City?"
Wutian nodded and analyzed, "This person is the Patriarch of the Sea Spirit Race, so it's impossible for him to not know how terrifying the three seas are. Now that we've safely delivered his daughter, no matter who it is, they wouldn't immediately drive us away. The only explanation is that there must be something hidden here."
Mo Xin said solemnly, "Star Sea City is not a good place. Besides, we have sent her here, and other things have nothing to do with us. I think it's better not to get involved in this mess."
"No, we have to go."
Xu Yi suddenly spoke in an extremely firm tone.
"Why?" Mo Xin was puzzled.
Xu Yi's face was as cold as frost. She snorted coldly and said, "We finally escorted his daughter back. In the end, not only did he not say a word of gratitude, but he even threatened us. If I don't vent my anger, I won't be happy."
Thinking of what she had experienced over the years and the treatment she had received before, she couldn't help but feel furious.
After pondering for a while, a cold light burst out of Mo Xin's eyes. She said, "To be honest, if I don't vent my anger, I won't be able to calm down. Okay, let's go to Star Sea City and make trouble."
Seeing the two women's ruthlessness, Wutian couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He would rather offend a villain than offend a woman. This sentence was really right!
