“Grandpa! Why did you throw them down again? That handsome brother isn’t dead yet!”
The old fisherman wiped the water off his hands and planted his hands on his hips with an air of self-righteousness:
“Not dead or not, it doesn’t matter! That man can’t be any good. Sure, he’s handsome, but look at that girl!”
“She jumped into the Bone-Corroding Sea, and she still clutched his hand tightly, ready to drown with him in a lover’s suicide. It’s obvious he ruined her.”
“You’re still young; you don’t understand these tangled affairs. The more handsome a man is, the better he is at deceiving people!”
Hearing this, the little girl puffed out her cheeks and nodded thoughtfully: “No wonder Grandpa never deceives anyone!”
“You little brat!” The old fisherman was momentarily speechless, caught off guard by his granddaughter’s retort.
Just then, the little girl grabbed the fishing net with both hands, leaned back with all her might, and used all her strength to loop the net around Qin Hao and Chen Xiaoyun.
Then she hauled both of them back onto the fishing boat.
“Oh dear, why did you drag them back up again?”
The little girl looked at Qin Hao and smiled gently: “Grandpa, this brother is so handsome. It would be such a pity for him to die here. Let’s take them home.”
Faced with his granddaughter’s plea, the old fisherman shook his head firmly:
“No, we don’t even know where they came from. And for them to fall into the Bone-Corroding Sea and come out unscathed means they’re definitely extraordinary.”
“Who knows if they’ve offended some unapproachable existence and got beaten into this sea?”
“We’re the lowest-level cultivators in the Three Realms and Nine Heavens. We shouldn’t meddle in matters that aren’t ours, to avoid unnecessary trouble.”
“Cough, cough, cough!”
Chen Xiaoyun coughed violently in her unconscious state, spitting out a mouthful of deep blue seawater.
The seawater fell onto the fishing boat, making a faint sizzling sound, with tiny bubbles forming around the edges.
Qin Hao, on the other hand, remained deeply asleep, his brow furrowed into a tight knot.
Qin Hao would have been perfectly fine; after all, Liu Ruyan had set up a protective barrier around him, strong enough to withstand the law attacks within the spatial vortex.
But unexpectedly, Chen Xiaoyun had followed Qin Hao in.
Helpless, Qin Hao transferred most of the protective barrier to Chen Xiaoyun, while he himself endured the law force of the spatial vortex with his bare body.
It had terrified Chen Xiaoyun at the time, and she had offered to step out of the barrier and give it back to him.
“Take it for yourself. I’ve paid a huge price for you. When this order is done, if you don’t give me a ten-star review, I’ll never let it go!”
After coughing out the seawater, Chen Xiaoyun slowly regained consciousness.
“Who are you?”
She first looked warily at the old fisherman and his granddaughter, then her gaze was drawn to the unconscious Qin Hao.
“Qin Hao!!!”
Chen Xiaoyun rushed to his side with concern and channeled her spiritual energy into his body to check on his condition.
But soon, her brow furrowed into a knot.
Qin Hao’s situation was dire. His meridians were completely shattered; he had become a cripple.
“Hmm? No, what is this power?”
Just as Chen Xiaoyun blamed herself for insisting on following him, she was delighted to discover a force within Qin Hao’s body gently nurturing his meridians.
Under the influence of this power, his broken meridians were healing and becoming even tougher than before.
“Could this be a blessing in disguise?”
As Chen Xiaoyun examined Qin Hao’s condition, the old fisherman shielded his granddaughter behind him and looked warily at Chen Xiaoyun.
“Miss, since you’re awake, please take this person and leave.”
Chen Xiaoyun looked at the fisherman and asked, “Did you save us?”
The old fisherman shook his head vehemently: “Hardly, hardly! I did nothing. You woke up on your own.”
Chen Xiaoyun pulled out her storage pouch and took out ten thousand top-grade spirit stones, tossing them to the old fisherman:
“This is my thanks. Please take the trouble to bring us to shore.”
Chen Xiaoyun realized that this sea was extremely corrosive.
Her spiritual energy was completely depleted from the law force in the spatial vortex and from the earlier immersion.
If they were left here, both she and Qin Hao would be in deep trouble.
“No, it’s me who would be in trouble. That freak Qin Hao—his body can even directly withstand the law attacks in the spatial vortex.”
“The corrosion of this sea has no effect on him at all.”
The old fisherman looked at the ten thousand top-grade spirit stones Chen Xiaoyun had thrown. He was tempted, but also afraid.
Someone who could casually toss out ten thousand top-grade spirit stones without blinking was definitely not someone a mere Nascent Soul cultivator like himself could afford to provoke.
But at the same time, their enemies were people he couldn’t afford to touch either.
The two of them had appeared out of nowhere in the Bone-Corroding Sea—they had most likely offended someone and were fleeing here.
If he helped them, and their enemies took notice, what would become of him?
Seeing the old fisherman stay silent, Chen Xiaoyun frowned: “What? Is it not enough?”
Hearing that, the old fisherman quickly waved his hands.
“Miss, don’t misunderstand. It’s not that it’s not enough. It’s just that I have some concerns. How did you end up here? Did you offend someone and get pursued here?”
Chen Xiaoyun raised an eyebrow. She quickly guessed the old fisherman’s worry, so she reassured him:
“Don’t worry. No one is pursuing us. My friend and I were accidentally caught in a spatial vortex and ended up here.”
“Just take us to shore, and I’ll leave you alone. Rest assured, nothing bad will happen.”
Hearing Chen Xiaoyun’s words, the little girl tugged at the old fisherman’s leg:
“Grandpa, please agree to this pretty sister. Ten thousand top-grade spirit stones! With that many, we can buy medicine to heal Grandma.”
The little girl’s words struck the old fisherman deeply. After a moment of hesitation, he finally gritted his teeth and agreed:
“Alright, I’ll take you to shore.”
...
Qin Hao was “awakened” by a sharp headache.
He felt as though his eyelids were stuck with two iron plates, and it took all his effort to open them a crack.
He found himself lying on a bed in a room that was simply furnished—definitely not his Imperial Prince’s mansion.
“Qin Hao! You’re finally awake!”
Seeing Qin Hao stir, Chen Xiaoyun rushed over and hugged him.
“Ahh—!! ”
Qin Hao winced and sucked in a breath of cold air. Chen Xiaoyun immediately realized her mistake and looked at him apologetically:
“Sorry, Qin Hao, I forgot. You have all your meridians shattered.”
“What?!”
Hearing this, Qin Hao’s face instantly changed. All meridians shattered? Then I’m a cripple?
