"Hey, shouldn't someone tell me what's going on before I hand over the task?" Ying Feiyang protested.
Seeing Princess Linglong's weak appearance, Angel Ling Xin spoke for her, "Then I'll make it short. You can go to sleep …"
Angel Ling Xin roughly explained what had happened. The more Ying Feiyang listened, the more shocked he became. In the end, he even exclaimed, "Blow up the Crystal Palace? What on earth happened while I was sleeping? "
Princess Linglong had recovered some of her strength while they were talking. Then, she said, "Can you listen to me now? If the two of you lend a hand, perhaps nothing will happen. "
Ying Feiyang shrank his body and said with an unapproachable look, "What do you need help with? I don't care what happened between you and my master. But I'm not familiar with you. You should be grateful that I saved you. Don't ask me to … "
Princess Linglong narrowed her eyes and said sharply, "You tried so hard to make a deal with me, so there must be something you need in the Crystal Palace. If the Crystal Palace is destroyed, won't all your efforts be in vain?"
Ying Feiyang's expression froze. Princess Linglong continued, "Moreover, if their plot succeeds and the Crystal Palace is damaged, with my sworn sister's temperament, she will definitely vent her anger on the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals if she can't find the mastermind. By then, the entire East Sea, human or demon, will not be able to live in peace. Even the whole world will change!"
Hearing her serious words, Ying Feiyang's heart sank. The East Sea Mermaid Tears Pearl was famous for being unreasonable. All the cultivators in East Sea and even the whole world would turn pale at the mention of her name. In the past hundred years, she finally calmed down and sunk the Crystal Palace into the bottom of the sea. As long as others did not provoke her, she would not stir up trouble. But if her Crystal Palace was blown up, it would be a disaster like an underwater volcano eruption. However, Ying Feiyang quickly added, "I've heard of the Sulphuric Fire Technique. They have mixed so much 'Black Thunder Fire', and its power is not to be underestimated. Once it explodes, perhaps even the current Demon King would not be able to withstand it. If the East Sea Mermaid Tear was blown to death in the Crystal Palace, where would she get revenge?"
Princess Linglong shook her head and said, "I'm not sure if the 'Black Thunderfire' can harm a top-notch expert, but I can guarantee that my sworn sister will not be harmed in the slightest because she is not in the Crystal Palace at the moment!"
"Not in the Crystal Palace?" Ying Feiyang and Ling Xin exclaimed in unison. Then, Ling Xin said solemnly, "Then, where is the East Sea Merman's Tear now?"
"This is what I want to entrust to the two of you. I am seriously injured and unable to move. I wonder if the two of you would be willing to help me pass the news to my sworn sister?" Princess Linglong looked at the two of them with hope in her eyes.
Ling Xin nodded without hesitation and said, "Princess Linglong, feel free to speak."
However, Ying Feiyang was worried and tried to dissuade her, "Miss Shi …"
Before he could finish, Ling Xin already knew what he meant and said seriously, "Brother Ying, you don't have to dissuade me. If I can resolve this disaster in the East Sea, I will do it."
Then, she lowered her head and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Brother Ying. This trip has been really troublesome. I shouldn't have dragged you into it. As for the rest …"
Before she could finish, Ying Feiyang also knew what she was trying to say and said, "Forget it. Since it has come to this, we can only do it to the end. Besides, how can we leave you alone … Princess Linglong, I have helped the Crystal Palace avoid this disaster. You have to take out all the treasures of the Crystal Palace to thank me!"
However, Princess Linglong only shook her head and said in a mocking tone, "You are really the same as your master. You obviously can't stand to see such a tragedy happen, but you are not straightforward when you want to help. You have to wait for the lady beside you to say that she wants to help first and then use the excuse that you are worried about leaving her alone to curry favor with the lady!"
To a certain extent, these words hit the nail on the head. Ying Feiyang was a little embarrassed and said, "Hurry up and get to the point! You want me to send a message to the East Sea Mermaid Tears? Where is your sworn sister now? "
Princess Linglong said seriously, "She should be in the Yaksha King's Treasury at the bottom of the sea!"
"Yaksha King's Treasury?" Upon hearing the word "Yaksha", Ying Feiyang and Ling Xin looked at each other and secretly paid attention. Then, Ying Feiyang asked, "Yaksha King's Treasury? What is that? And where is it? "
Many generations ago, there was a Demon King in the East Sea. Because he was extremely ugly, no one knew what his original name was. Everyone only knew that he was called the Yaksha King. This Yaksha King was tyrannical and greedy by nature. He formed a fleet of demons on the East Sea and plundered wantonly. Relying on his high cultivation and the demons under him, in just a few short years, he had amassed a huge pile of treasures that would make anyone envious. He hid them in a treasure vault in the deep sea, which was the Yaksha King's treasure vault. Later on, the Yaksha King angered everyone and was attacked by many experts. After his death, the treasure vault went missing. It wasn't until my sister discovered the treasure vault that the treasure vault of the East Sea Crystal Palace was revealed to the world. To tell you the truth, the reason why the East Sea Crystal Palace's treasure vault is so rich and unparalleled is because my sister emptied the Yaksha King's treasure vault! "
"After that, my brother-in-law died from Qi deviation. In her grief, my sworn sister sank the Crystal Palace to the bottom of the sea, where the entrance to the Yaksha King's Treasury was sealed. Every year, on the day of the Langya Sea Market, the Crystal Palace would surface, and the entrance to the Yaksha King's Treasury would appear. Every year, at this time, my sister would quietly enter the Yaksha King's Treasury."
Upon hearing this, Ying Feiyang could not help but ask, "Since you said that the treasury has been emptied, why does she still enter the treasury every year?"
Princess Linglong shook her head and said, "I accidentally discovered that she would enter the Yaksha King's Treasury every year at this time. As for her purpose in entering the treasury, this … I don't know either!"
"The Yaksha King's Treasury … The host of the Heavenly Book will always appear near related people. Could it be that the Heavenly Book has fallen into the Yaksha King's Treasury?" Ying Feiyang speculated, then said, "In other words, the Yaksha King's Treasury is at the bottom of the sea under the Crystal Palace?"
Princess Linglong nodded and said, "Yes. Although I don't know if you've consumed a heavenly treasure or obtained some magical item, your speed underwater is so fast that even ordinary water demons can't catch up to you. If it's you, you should be able to rush to the treasury before the Crystal Palace is blown up and tell my sworn sister about it. Only she will be able to stop the Mirage City and save the Crystal Palace from this disaster!"
Then, Princess Linglong tore off a jade pendant from her body and threw it to Ying Feiyang, saying, "This is a keepsake. Give it to my sister as proof!"
Ying Feiyang nodded and said solemnly, "Understood. I will not let you down and deliver the message!"
"Then … thank you …" Princess Linglong smiled brightly, then suddenly vomited a large mouthful of blood. Ying Feiyang and the Holy Maiden were shocked and hurried forward to ask, "Princess, how are you?"
Princess Linglong had forced herself to explain the cause and effect of the matter clearly. Now that Ying Feiyang had agreed, she relaxed a little, but her injuries could no longer be suppressed. At this moment, she shook her head weakly and said, "Don't worry about me, I'm still alive. You guys go first, I need to use a secret technique to heal my injuries …"
Then, she used the last of her strength to grab the corner of Ying Feiyang's clothes and pointed in a direction. "Look, this is Deer Cliff Island. Heh … the channel has been diverted so much by the Illusive Mirage City … Ying Feiyang, 30 miles in this direction is the location of the Yaksha Treasury. Go quickly, the Illusive Mirage City will arrive at the Crystal Palace in half a day. You must get there before he does and deliver the message to my sister. Please …"
After saying the last word, Princess Linglong loosened her grip, curled up into a ball, and slowly turned into a clamshell. Ying Feiyang knew that this was because of her serious injuries that she turned back into her demon form to recuperate.
Ying Feiyang thought for a while, then picked up the clamshell and threw it into the sea. He said, "They will probably continue to search for you, so I can only throw you into the sea for now. The rest is up to you."
Then, he turned to Holy Maiden Ling Xin and said, "Miss Shi, shall we go?"
Holy Maiden Ling Xin shook her head and said, "You go alone to the Yaksha Treasury. I don't have Long Zhong's Water Manipulation Divine Art, so I will only slow you down underwater."
Ying Feiyang knew that even if Holy Maiden Ling Xin didn't enter the sea, she wouldn't stay out of the matter at this time. He then asked, "What about you? What are you going to do? "
Holy Maiden Ling Xin said, "I'm going to intercept the cargo ship and see if I can stop it!"
Ying Feiyang was shocked and said anxiously, "Are you crazy? You just escaped from there, and now you want to go back into the tiger's den? Those masked men and the Illusive Mirage City are all experts. Aren't you going to die if you go back alone? "
Holy Maiden Ling Xin shook her head and said, "They definitely won't expect me to go back, and they will definitely spread out to search for us. Maybe this is the time when the ship's defense is at its weakest. If I can sink the ship, I can solve the problem once and for all."
"That's too dangerous …" Ying Feiyang wanted to stop her.
Holy Maiden Ling Xin smiled lightly and said, "Don't worry, I'm not a fool. If I'm not confident, I won't act rashly …"
Seeing her expression, Ying Feiyang knew that she had made up her mind and couldn't be changed. He sighed and muttered, "You're still not a fool, taking risks for something that has nothing to do with you …"
Holy Maiden Ling Xin pouted and said, "You're still talking about me? Aren't you the same … The Tears of Mermaids and Mermaids of the Eastern Sea are hard to fathom? Your mission might not be safer than mine, so be careful! "
The two said goodbye to each other, and then one flew into the sky, while the other dove into the sea, and went their separate ways.
At this time, on the ship, the Illusive Mirage City was standing on the deck, looking at the red sun rising over the sea. His emotions were surging along with the waves, until a Black Scale Soldier ran to him and reported, "Reporting to the Commander, the Black Thunder Fire has been refined!"
"What's the result?"
"Although Bei Xuanji saw through our plan, the saltpeter and honey locust seeds were mixed with other goods, so she couldn't find and destroy them in a short period of time. The remaining 80% is enough to blow up the Crystal Palace!"
"That's good!" The Illusive Mirage City nodded. Then, he turned around and changed his appearance in the eyes of the Black Scale Soldiers. He looked lazy and plump, exactly like Princess Linglong.
"Full sails, full rudder. Our destination is the Crystal Palace. Full speed ahead!" The Mirage Monsters' illusions affected the senses of other demons. In the eyes of others, he was no different from Princess Linglong, except that his eyes were sharp and full of unshakable faith.
"King, please bless me with success!"

At the bottom of the sea, deep and silent, where sunlight couldn't reach, there were strangely shaped fish. They had lantern-like antennae on top of their heads that flickered with a faint fluorescent light, so that the bottom of the sea wasn't completely dark.
But at this moment, the water surged and broke the silence at the bottom of the sea. It seemed that some kind of beast was swimming over, which scared the fish and made them flee.
The figure that scared the fish was, without a doubt, Ying Feiyang.
It wasn't quite accurate to say that he swam over. After entering the water, he had activated Long Zhong's Water Manipulation technique to the maximum. The magical thing about the water-manipulating magic was that he didn't even need to move his body. Instead, with a single thought of his, the surrounding water currents would carry him, as if they were alive. Without even moving a finger, he would be as fast as the fastest water-kind spirit creature.
The magnificent view under the sea was something that ordinary people couldn't see in their entire lives, but Ying Feiyang was obviously not in the mood for it at this moment. He suddenly stopped and dived. After diving for hundreds of meters, he finally stepped on the bottom of the sea. "This is it!"
The moment Ying Feiyang's feet touched the bottom, he felt that he was stepping on a solid stone slab, which was different from the soft mud he was standing on. There was also an irregular depression, which was obviously caused by the Crystal Palace.
"It's here!" Ying Feiyang gathered his Qi in his eyes. The bottom of the sea was already as bright as day in his eyes. A curse formed by the hideous face of the Yaksha was right in the center of the depression.
"Hmm … according to the opening method that Princess Linglong said, it should be like this."
Ying Feiyang exerted force on his feet and infused his Qi into the curse. He then used the Steps of Yu and stepped in all directions, as if he was dancing in the deep sea. The curse under his feet also shone brightly, and finally, the Yaksha head seemed to come alive as it opened its bloody mouth.
Ying Feiyang, who was standing at the mouth of the Yaksha, felt that the stone slab under his feet had turned into a swamp-like liquid. Knowing that the restriction had been lifted, Ying Feiyang didn't struggle and allowed his body to dive. Finally, his whole body sank into the bottom of the sea, as if he had never existed.
When he felt that he had stopped diving, when he opened his eyes again, the scene in front of him was different!
