"This … …"
Yan Qingcheng was really speechless. In fact, that was indeed the case. If she put herself in his shoes, it was even more impossible for her to trust Xiao Chen.
She knew there was only one possibility. That was to offer herself. Perhaps only through marriage could she exchange for the other party's trust. The other party should understand that a proud and arrogant girl like her would value her body more than her life. Perhaps this was the only way she could convince Xiao Chen.
However. How could she be willing! Especially this former enemy. Although she had to compromise now, she still couldn't bear that kind of result.
However. If she didn't do this, how could she gain the other party's trust? With Xiao Chen's temperament. He would stifle all dangers. He wouldn't allow her to live on.
The Sovereign King Ship advanced slowly, ripples of light appeared on the golden ocean. The jet-black ancient ship was especially eye-catching against the divine radiance of the Taboo Ocean.
Looking from afar, it looked like a huge, upside-down black skull was floating in the air. It was gloomy and demonic. This was a peculiar scene. This was a captivating scene, it was just that there were no more spectators at the moment.
The ancient ship sunk into silence. Xiao Chen was calm and unruffled, he seemed casual and relaxed, as if he had forgotten about the matter just now. He was currently looking at the golden ocean, admiring the beautiful and magnificent Taboo Golden Ocean.
However. Yan Qingcheng knew that the other party's killing intent hadn't decreased, it was only because he had the absolute initiative that he could kill this captive at any time. She was struggling in her heart, she didn't want to die. She was still young. She had an infinitely beautiful future, her future was full of light, but how could she survive?
Did she really have to make such a huge sacrifice? Yan Qingcheng was a girl with great ambition, and at the same time, her talent was outstanding. She didn't want to live a mediocre life, she wanted to surpass her predecessors and create a world that could topple cities. However, she didn't know how to overcome the current crisis. Could it be that she really had to cross the bottom line in her heart?
After leaving the dragon island, everything had changed. The two of them originally had a delicate relationship, what they had to consider was no longer as simple as struggling to survive on the uninhabited island. Now, they had to consider the future, consider everything that could happen.
Everything was very peaceful, only the sound of the two little beasts eating could be heard. Keke didn't have that many thoughts at the moment, it was eating all kinds of strange fruits with relish. The proud and aloof little dragon was gradually influenced by Keke's lifestyle. It no longer resisted the delicacy and enjoyed it happily like a snow-white little critter.
Qinguang Wang and the other two were very quiet as they sat beside the burial cloth. They stood motionless like three fossils, as if they had fallen into a state of deathly stillness and were quietly cultivating. Occasionally, the light of a soul would flicker in his eye sockets. The lotus imprint on his forehead shone brilliantly.
After an unknown period of time. The sky gradually darkened. Xiao Chen also crushed a few unknown nuts and started to enjoy his dinner. This was a strange feeling. On this Taboo Ocean, where even Demigods could not set foot in, he was enjoying rosin, wild fruits, and coconut juice. Quietly watching the sunset dye the golden ocean red. It was a different kind of feeling.
Night fell. Countless stars appeared in the sky. It was a different kind of starry sky. It was filled with the aura of freedom. Xiao Chen felt incomparably relaxed. The important thing was to leave the Dragon Island.
At this moment, Ke suddenly screamed in shock.
Xiao Chen who was looking at the sky was startled. He hastily turned around. He saw Ke took off its treasured tree hat and squeaked. And Tenax looked at it curiously. The proud and aloof little dragon did not seem to be coveting the sacred tree like those little Syndicate Dragon Kings.
"What's wrong with Ke?"
Xiao Chen asked doubtfully.
The snow-white little critter was still pointing at the treasured tree hat and squeaking non-stop. It seemed to be very surprised. It should be some kind of situation with the little sacred tree. Xiao Chen walked in front of it. He squatted down and lightly touched the little tree. He immediately felt a little warm. It seemed like there was an energy fluctuation fluctuating.
"Eh?"
Xiao Chen's heart was also filled with doubts.
Yan Qingcheng was also very flabbergasted. She turned her head around to look.
There was indeed an almost undetectable fluctuation. It was just that, no matter if it was Ke or Xiao Chen, they never noticed it before. The little sacred tree seemed to be absorbing the energy from the outside world.
Under the dim light of night. Xiao Chen's sharp spiritual sense was brought to the extreme. He finally saw it clearly. There were actually little golden specks of light that were slowly gathering towards the little sacred tree from all directions.
This was … … the power of the golden ocean.
Xiao Chen was gobsmacked. The little sacred tree was too miraculous. It was actually able to absorb the divine power of the Taboo Ocean.
Because the fluctuation before was too weak. No one noticed it. Regardless of whether it was Xiao Chen or Yan Qingcheng. Or the two little beasts and the three skeletons, they all knew what happened.
The snow-white little critter squeaked excitedly. It wanted to put the little sacred tree into the golden ocean. However, it stopped its action midway in vexation, because it thought of how terrifying the golden ocean was.
After thoroughly understanding what was going on. Xiao Chen was very tempted. The Taboo Ocean seemed to be nurturing an unlimited amount of divine power. If the little sacred tree absorbed some of it, it might even grow a little.
"Let me give it a try."
Xiao Chen held the little tree and gradually approached the railing of the ship. At this time, the sacred tree emitted a relatively bright radiance. The amount of golden specks of light that gathered had obviously increased a lot.
Xiao Chen didn't dare to recklessly expose the little tree outside the Sovereign King Ship. After all, he had already seen it before. After breaking away from the protection of the bird radiance emitted by the ancient ship. Every tangible substance would be crushed to pieces. Even though this was the legendary sacred tree. It was hard to say whether it could withstand that kind of divine power or not.
Xiao Chen's arm had already reached the edge of the ship's railing. The amount of golden specks of light that gathered grew more and more. The little sacred tree was already absorbing this divine power at high speed.
After taking the risk to advance a little more, he was already a little away from the railing of the ship. However, he was still within the range of the bird radiance emitted by the ancient ship. The golden power condensed even faster. It was as if many tiny fireflies were flying over from all directions and pouncing towards the little tree.
This was a result that made people happy. They could truly see the divine power being absorbed by the little tree. It gave people a very strong sense of harvest and satisfaction.
Keke blinked her big eyes as she ran back and forth. She was extremely excited. However, Xiao Chen couldn't hold the little tree like this forever. In the end, he retreated and wrapped the burial cloth around the little sacred tree. Then he hung it on the railing of the ship.
This was a night that made people happy. Specks of stars adorned the blue dome of heaven. The Sovereign King Ship was advancing slowly. The little sacred tree at the stern was flickering with golden radiance. It was already surrounded by more and more specks of light.
The night wind blew gently. The depths of the Taboo Ocean was not as deathly still as imagined. There was also the movement of the wind. There was also the sound of waves. Even though the baleful aura in that area of the cabin was soaring to the sky, it made Xiao Chen's hair stand on end. But at the stern area. Under the protection of the ancestor god Suirenshi's burial cloth. It was still considered peaceful. Under the gentle moonlight, the two little beasts were already letting out a light and sweet snoring sound. The three skeletons had also completely entered a meditative state.
Xiao Chen took a look at Yan Qingcheng. He wasn't worried about her sneak attack at all. He fell asleep at ease. With his current spiritual sense, he would wake up in a flash if there were any abnormalities. And the opponent's power was sealed by him, she couldn't cause any harm to him.
After an unknown period of time, Xiao Chen woke up from his deep sleep. He heard a low growl, it seemed like there was a ghost voice drifting in the air. In the direction of the cabin. The huge underworld lamp was emitting a deathly pale radiance, but it was unable to truly illuminate that area. The deathly pale weak radiance was limited to a very narrow range in the darkness.
Even further away, it seemed like a dark door that connected to the underworld. It was as gloomy and frightening as death. They couldn't see anything, but the gloomy ghost voice was transmitted from that place. At the same time, the sound of footsteps was transmitted from the cabin. It was an atmosphere that made people's hair stand on end. They couldn't see it. They could only hear it, it made them even more terrified.
All of a sudden. The huge Sovereign King Ship shook violently for a moment. It was as if there was a huge monster rolling its body in the cabin. People could clearly hear that kind of rolling sound and the ghostly voice that sounded like the mumbling of a dream. A bitter baleful aura soared up. It made the stars in the sky seem to have lost their luster.
The black underworld fog was fluttering, it lingered around the ancient ship. It seemed to have dyed the nearby golden seawater black.
Not only Xiao Chen had already woken up, Yan Qingcheng also sat up nervously. And the two little beasts were staring at the cabin in front of them without blinking. The divine radiance of the three skeletons was throbbing unceasingly.
This was indeed an evil ghost ship. It was actually so demonic and frightening. Without a doubt, there was something very bad on the ship. They could clearly see the underworld fog drifting around the entire ancient ship. If it wasn't for ancestor god Suirenshi's burial cloth protecting the stern of the ship, perhaps this place would have already sunk into darkness.
The gloomy ghost voice was growling. The terrifying footsteps were transmitted unceasingly. The Sovereign King Ship revealed its awe-inspiring side.
However, it was already close to dawn, the dark sky was gradually getting livelier, and those abnormal voices were gradually calming down.
Xiao Chen and the rest finally heaved a sigh of relief. If something bad really came out from the cabin of the ancient ship. Perhaps they were in a very dangerous situation. Even with the protection of the burial cloth, it was still hard to guarantee their safety.
Just at this time. Keke jumped to the edge of the ancient ship. The little beasts were looking for the little sacred tree. Xiao Chen was also startled when he turned around to take a look. He only saw that the burial cloth was already half hanging down from the ship's railing. The little sacred tree had sunk down. It was no longer in their line of sight. It was already out of the range of the bird-like radiance.
This made Xiao Chen's heart sink. He walked over with quick steps. But soon after, he calmed down again. Although the burial cloth and the little sacred tree were out of the range of the bird-like radiance, they did not shatter into pieces. On the contrary, the ship's railing was glistening with resplendent golden radiance.
As expected of being soaked in the ancestor god's blood. The burial cloth was still that ordinary, without any luster, but it was not destroyed by the power of the Taboo Ocean. This was really too rare.
And the little sacred tree was even more mystical, because the Sovereign King Ship was too big. Due to the Sovereign King Ship being too huge, it was suspended in the air by half of the burial cloth, it was impossible for it to come into contact with the golden ocean. However, the golden radiance rising from the Taboo Ocean was like water ripples. It connected it to the surface of the sea, as if the two were already connected.
Although the energy fluctuation was not very intense. But people could clearly feel that there was a trickle of energy converging toward the little sacred tree in an unending stream. The golden power was being absorbed by it.
Although the divine power was not as vast and boundless as imagined, according to this speed, the little sacred tree would still be able to absorb the endless power. The little sacred tree would still absorb the endless energy, gathering it in small amounts and slowly absorbing it. As long as there was enough time, the little sacred tree would definitely grow a bit.
The morning sun rose from the east, the morning glow sprinkled on the surface of the sea. A new day had begun, the big ship was still moving forward slowly.
The rising sun seemed to be scattering boundless vitality. It made the eerie Sovereign King Ship no longer have that baleful aura. Specks of golden light rippled in the sea. Everything was so peaceful and calm. People who didn't know the truth. Those who did not know the truth would find it hard to believe that every inch of space here could crush a demigod. Even a deity.
The snow-white little critter and Tenax seemed to be very unaccustomed to this kind of journey. That was because they had a restless nature. The two baby beasts crossed the range of the burial cloth several times. They tried to probe the direction of the cabin. But they were all stopped by Xiao Chen.
Yan Qingcheng's state of mind was in a mess. She couldn't make a decision, she couldn't make a choice in her heart, because the price was really too high. Xiao Chen didn't know what this devastatingly beautiful woman was thinking, but he was not in a hurry. However, he was not in a hurry. He had time. Perhaps the other party would really help him think of a safe and reliable idea.
The sun rose and set. Four days passed in the blink of an eye.
Another night had arrived. During the past few days, the ancient ship was very restless at night. There would always be a terrifying sound. So much so that Xiao Chen could really feel the baleful aura breaking through the range of the burial cloth a few times. And one time, he was even startled awake from his dream. He saw a few terrifying figures gazing at them from not far away.
On the night of the fourth day, the starlight was a little dim. Amidst the undulating waves of the Taboo Ocean, the ancient ship seemed a little oppressive.
It was already late at night. However, the ghostly sound didn't appear as usual. It was just that Xiao Chen couldn't really fall asleep. He could feel the unusual atmosphere. In the end, he fell into a half-asleep state.
