Chapter 606: Chapter 607: Aquatic People_1

"Island Jellyfish, one of its final evolutionary forms."

Feng Yuan glanced at the Bubble Jellyfish. After hearing the roar, those Bubble Jellyfish that were still waiting outside suddenly wanted to leave. However, they seemed reluctant to part with the delicious fruit, slowly moving while occasionally looking back longingly. Seeing this, Feng Yuan took out a bunch of fruit and threw it into the water.

"They’re that greedy?"

Guo Huai was somewhat surprised. He hadn’t expected the Bubble Jellyfish to not want to leave because of the fruit. Feng Yuan looked at the shadow that was beginning to appear and said,

"Don’t be ridiculous, it’s not greed, it’s confidence. They rely on their backers and are fundamentally unafraid of danger."

"What’s that?"

At that moment, Mo Li squinted her eyes at the huge pink jellyfish drifting toward the group, surrounded by falling red petals—truly a strange sight.

"Petal Jellyfish, an Elite Level Spirit Beast."

Feng Yuan quickly took a look and answered, while Guo Huai checked the information and said,

"So that’s an evolved form of the Bubble Jellyfish?"

"Not entirely."

Just then, the Petal Jellyfish suddenly collided towards Kui Shui Xuanwu, and Feng Yuan asked with some confusion,

"What’s it doing?"

As the Petal Jellyfish tilted its head, everyone noticed a little boy lying on top of it. As the Petal Jellyfish crashed into the Barrier, the boy was flung inside.

"Don’t get stranded..."

With a wave of his hand, Feng Yuan used Telekinesis to push the Petal Jellyfish that had rushed into the Barrier back into the sea. The White Wolf Deity caught the flying boy with Telekinesis and, after observing the boy, who had blue and white Runes on the cuffs of his plain linen traditional clothes, Feng Yuan carefully set him down.

Although the boy shook his arms trying to break free, he was no match for the power of the White Wolf Deity’s Telekinesis. But the White Wolf Deity didn’t seem interested in teasing him and gently placed him on the ground before lying back down to doze off.

"Who are you?"

Feng Yuan asked with some curiosity. The boy looked at Feng Yuan and didn’t speak. Wei Dingwu seemed to remember something and started communicating with the boy in a strange language. Wei Fangwu said with some surprise,

"Aquatic People?"

"Aquatic People?"

Feng Yuan looked at the boy a bit strangely. Although he had shell jewelry, Feng Yuan thought it couldn’t be that simple since they were called Aquatic People.

Wei Fangwu nodded and examined the boy, saying,

"Yes, Aquatic People. That’s what they’ve insisted we call them. I’m not exactly clear on the details, just that they all live in this sea."

"But exactly where they reside, I don’t know. Perhaps on some island."

As he said this, Wei Fangwu laughed and added,

"In that case, I suppose the citizens of the new Nanyu Kingdom could also call themselves Aquatic People—"

"They may not be a unified tribe, but for the sake of communication, it seems their language is quite similar."

"They have their own unified language?"

Feng Yuan scratched his head, looking at the two communicating, and asked,

"What’s he saying?"

"I don’t know."

"Don’t know?"

Feng Yuan looked at Wei Fangwu in surprise, then smiled. Wei Fangwu said,

"I’m not interested in the goods the Aquatic People bring, so why would I know their language? But the fact that she can speak the language of the Aquatic People is a bit surprising to me."

"Is that so..."

As he spoke, Feng Yuan drew out the Wolf God Giant Sword. Wei Fangwu looked in astonishment at the white Greatsword in Feng Yuan’s hand; he hadn’t realized that Feng Yuan had two Greatswords of different colors.

Feng Yuan was about to plunge the Wolf God Giant Sword into the ground with both hands, but suddenly remembered they were on the back of Kui Shui Xuanwu and awkwardly changed his motion to a sword-raising pose.

Rune energy flowed in the grooves of the Wolf God Giant Sword as Feng Yuan moved, and to everyone’s surprise, they suddenly could understand the conversation between the two.

"How can you prove that you’re not bad people?"

"Why must I prove that we’re not bad people? It was you who barged in here."

Hearing Wei Dingwu and the boy’s conversation, Wei Fangwu chuckled and stepped back. Feng Yuan sneaked a smile at Wei Dingwu and said,

"So you take advantage of him just because we don’t understand, huh?"

"You’re not in cahoots?"

"What do you mean, can’t understand? I’m just..."

"Eh?! You can understand?!"

Wei Dingwu suddenly realized what was happening and, with a touch of embarrassment reddening her face, glared at Feng Yuan. She had just whimsically decided to tease the Aquatic People before her, but her ploy was quickly found out.

Waving the Wolf God Giant Sword with a sinister smile, Feng Yuan said to the little boy,

"Sorry, we really are together~"

Seeing the little boy step back cautiously, Guo Huai said exasperatedly,

"Feng Yuan, can you stop messing around? What bad thing were you planning to do by rushing in like that?"

"It is you who wanted to do something bad!"

The little boy glared at them and, scratching his head, Feng Yuan asked, puzzled,

"What bad thing? Explain yourself clearly."

"That’s enough, stop it."

Mo Li helplessly pulled Feng Yuan behind her and slowly approached the little boy, speaking to him with a friendly demeanor. After a while, the little boy gradually let go of his guarded look, glanced at the Bubble Jellyfish by the water watching them, and said,

"You’re not thinking of picking on them, are you?"

"You mean the Bubble Jellyfish? Why would we do that? We live inland, and we can’t take them with us."

"Really?"

The little boy, still somewhat wary, stared at Feng Yuan. Mo Li had also explained to him that they wouldn’t take the Bubble Jellyfish away, but he didn’t quite believe it. In his eyes, the words of strangers were unreliable, especially since their Divine Lord seemed as elusive as the islands upon the sea, which made them even more suspicious.

"If you’re here for the Bubble Jellyfish, then you can take them and leave."

"Right, are you from that place?"

Feng Yuan asked, suddenly remembering something and pointed towards a huge shadow in the distance. From that direction, deep roars could be heard calling to the Bubble Jellyfish, although at the moment, the jellyfish were busy enjoying the fruits and showed no interest in leaving.

"So you are really after the Sea God Envoy!"

The little boy gazed at Feng Yuan with an "I’ve seen through your true intentions" expression, scratching his head while Feng Yuan said speechlessly,

"What nonsense are you talking about? Why would I go after it?"

"Besides, you shouldn’t use the term Sea God so carelessly~"

With a mysterious smile, Feng Yuan left the little boy with a chill down his spine, sensing that something dreadful was about to happen. The spectral presence of Agunas glanced at Feng Yuan and said,

"You got nothing better to do? Why bring Delong Tower here for no reason?"

"Wasn’t it him who mentioned the Sea God Envoy~"

"Delong Tower?! Can’t you stop bringing Divine Beasts here to scare people for no reason?"

Guo Huai spoke helplessly. Though he was unsure if the little boy knew of Delong Tower, its presence as the true ruler of the Starlit Sea would likely frighten the other party.

"Who’s trying to scare anyone? It just so happens that Delong Tower is also free. Don’t you think having it accompany us makes the journey across the sea more interesting?"

"I trust your evil intentions! You’re planning to scare the daylights out of the people of Nanyu City!"

Guo Huai hadn’t forgotten that their current plan was to follow the people of Nanyu City to see where they would settle. The appearance of Delong Tower could surprise people like Mo Li, but it was a different story for Nanyu City. Who knew what kind of portents the arrival of Delong Tower could bring, and misunderstandings on their part could be troublesome.

Glancing at the little boy, Guo Huai felt even more annoyed. He didn’t know how they would react upon seeing Delong Tower; if they didn’t recognize it, that might be okay, but if they did, who knew what their reaction would be.

Hua Yiyou said with some confusion,

"Are there any uninhabited islands nearby where we can reside?"

"No, why?"

"I’m a bit worried... if the people of Nanyu City will..."

Wei Dingwu’s complexion changed, and after a moment of hesitation, she said,

"They shouldn’t, right? The current king of Nanyu isn’t unreasonable."

"But the five great families are."

Wei Fangwu said with a hint of distaste, and Mo Li, startled, quickly looked at Feng Yuan and asked,

"Should we go help out?"

"Don’t worry. There are no islands nearby, and they can’t do anything to them."

Feng Yuan said, glancing at the huge shadow on the water’s surface, which was slowly moving towards the Kui Shui Xuanwu.
