Dai Tianfeng's tender heart of steel, Shui Yue'er seizes every opening

Lin Hai looked inward at the Ten Directions Divine Artifacts within his body, which remained completely still, and smiled bitterly to himself, but his face remained impassive as he said:

"Didn't you just call me a bull? Can't I eat vegetarian for a few days?"

A sudden, absurd feeling welled up inside him—

I felt as if I had become a slave to these Ten Directions Divine Artifacts, driven by them to explore the vast unknown...

But he actually enjoys it!

It's like someone who loves dumplings being given a huge pot, as big as a swimming pool, stuffed full of dumplings, and told:

"If you find all ten coins hidden inside, you can win the grand prize."

"If you can't taste it, you might die in the future!"

So he could only desperately and selectively choose dumplings that looked big with lots of filling and pleats, gambling on that slim chance.

Some dumplings were too hot to eat right away, so he had to patiently blow on them!

On this day, Spirit City was already in sight, its towering walls resembling a crouching behemoth, exuding an aura of majesty.

Looking at that familiar outline, Lin Hai felt little sense of nostalgia for a wanderer returning home.

His first thought was to shield Bo Saixi in front of him, then gather his Soul Power and shout:

' Bo Saixi High Priestess of Sea God Island, is here! Qian Daoliu, hasten out of the city to greet her!'

When Qian Daoliu flew out with several old men from the Worship Hall, looking surprised and uncertain, the prestige of his group would definitely be off the charts!

However, in the end, it can only be a thought.

That noble and aloof High Priestess hasn't even acknowledged him since he brought the Zhu Family back!

No matter how he tried to send a message, it was like throwing a stone into the sea, with no response whatsoever.

He was busy flipping through the cards, and knew he couldn't be overly enthusiastic, so he didn't Teleportation into the car.

But now more than ten days have passed, and there's still no sign of them. This won't do!

Lin Hai had never been treated so coldly in his life!

He pondered for a moment, and then an idea came to him.

First, he sent a telepathic message to the coachman who was driving Bo Saixi's carriage, instructing him to steer the carriage slightly away from the main group and to a relatively secluded corner.

Then, Lin Hai flashed to Bo Saixi's carriage and gently knocked on the window.

In an extremely strange tone, as if a charlatan were summoning a spirit, he drawled out:

"Xixi... are you there?"

"You don't know yet, do you? We're almost home!"

"How about I introduce you to the Great Enshrined, Qian Daoliu?"

His tone was extremely "professional," and his words were full of criticisms. He didn't believe that Bo Saixi could hold back from refuting him!

Sure enough, the carriage was initially deathly silent, like the calm before a storm.

A moment later, the tightly closed car window was suddenly pulled open with force.

Bo Saixi's stunningly beautiful face was covered in frost, but her eyes burned with barely suppressed rage.

"First of all, when you call someone, call them properly! Don't do it like you're summoning a ghost!"

"Secondly, the Spirit Hall is your home, not mine! Besides, I'm not blind; such a large city is right there, I can see it!"

"Thirdly, if I, Bo Saixi, wish to see Qian Daoliu, why would I need your introduction? Do I not have legs of my own?!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Hai nodded earnestly and readily agreed:

"Okay, Xixi. Let's go see the Great Enshrined now. You may not have legs, but you have me!"

"You—!" Bo Saixi was speechless with anger, her chest heaving violently.

That damned Little Fox... he'll squeeze into any crack and cause trouble no matter what! I shouldn't have bothered with him!

"Hehe!" Lin Hai smiled smugly, seized the opportunity, and quickly reached into the carriage, preparing to grab her and Teleportation as usual.

Bo Saixi seeing this, Poseidon reflexively moved back, trying to avoid the "claws."

At the same time, with a wave of her hand, a surge of pure Soul Power erupted, causing the car window to slam shut like a guillotine, attempting to clamp Lin Hai's wrist and teach him a lesson.

"It doesn't hurt!" Lin Hai flicked his wrist, skillfully dissipating the force. Instead of backing down, he took the opportunity to push his way into the car, squeezing his entire upper body inside.

As a result, his side was firmly trapped by the rapidly closing car window!

"Hiss--" Lin Hai gasped dramatically, grimacing as he spoke.

"Be gentle! If you pinch my kidneys too hard, you'll regret it later!"

This pointed and outrageous remark was like a spark that ignited a powder keg, instantly causing Bo Saixi's pent-up anger and indescribable frustration to erupt completely!

Completely abandoning his usual composure and calmness, he pointed his finger at Lin Hai's nose and roared:

"Lin Hai, you bastard! Tell me honestly, are you the mission target I'm looking for?!"

"Where did that damned murderous aura of yours go?! Where did it go?! I'm going to kill you..."

Before she could finish speaking, Lin Hai had already grabbed her snow-white wrist with precision.

The next moment, spatial ripples spread out, and the two figures disappeared into the exquisite carriage.

In a few brief Teleportation, two people, each with different feelings and still somewhat shaken, suddenly appeared in the core forbidden area of the Spirit Hall.

Worship Hall.

Bo Saixi was still regretting her recent lapse in composure:

'Damn it! How did I get so angry at that brat's few words? The Divine Will is probably laughing at me again!'

Lin Hai was startled by the few words Bo Saixi revealed during his outburst:

' Xixi really did come with the mission of killing me! What on earth is the Sea God up to? The mighty Sixth Man has become a pawn of the Asura God?'

At this moment, each lost in their own thoughts, they completely forgot—

Their hands had been clasped tightly together since the beginning, never separating!

"Bo Saixi? It really is you! What brings you to Spirit City?" A hoarse voice, filled with surprise and disbelief, came from the depths of the hall.

It was Qian Daoliu who rushed over after discovering someone had broken in.

Bo Saixi was startled awake by the sound and snapped back to her senses.

Looking at her old friend, whom she hadn't seen for many years, whose face, like hers, showed no signs of aging, she was filled with mixed emotions and sighed softly.

"Long time no see, Qian Daoliu."

Qian Daoliu nodded excitedly, then his gaze fell on Lin Hai, who was standing next to Bo Saixi.

Then, one naturally notices the pair of hands that are still tightly clasped together, which seem exceptionally jarring!

Lin Hai inwardly cried out in alarm; he had been so preoccupied with other things that he had forgotten about this!

This old man sees Bo Saixi as his ideal woman; seeing this scene, wouldn't he fly into a rage on the spot?

"This..." Qian Daoliu was clearly stunned for a moment, and an extremely complicated emotion flashed across his face.

Surprise, confusion, a hint of relief, all ultimately turned into... schadenfreude!

He did not fly into a rage as Lin Hai had expected; he remained silent for a moment, then spoke in a tone tinged with deep regret:

"Bo Saixi, after all these years, your taste... has finally gotten back on track."
