"Di Tian, I %#¥!"

The howling wind roared wantonly in Su Mo's ears like a herd of unbridled wild horses.

It was the sound produced by Su Mo's rapidly falling body rubbing against the air.

The frigid air slapped against Su Mo's young face like knives, and the fierce airflow made it impossible for him to open his eyes.

Directly beneath Su Mo lay a boundless sea. At that moment, he was in free fall from ten thousand meters above the ocean's surface.

At Su Mo's current altitude, there was no difference between the sea below and solid ground.

Falling from ten thousand meters in the air, even Di Tian would not be able to withstand such a terrifying impact.

Let alone Su Mo after taking human form.

Su Mo could not understand why the space Di Tian had opened had suddenly collapsed, flinging him and Gu Yuena out before they could react.

As the sea drew ever closer, unprecedented panic flashed across Su Mo's young face.

"Di Tian, fuck your ancestors!"

"Even as a ghost, I won't let you off!"

Amid furious curses, Su Mo's body made intimate contact with the sea.

The instant he hit the water, Su Mo's body exploded into countless fragments, and his spilling blood instantly dyed the entire sea red.

Drawn by the scent of blood, predators swimming beneath the calm surface began heading toward the area.

A faint voice echoed from the void. "You actually tried to ruin San'er's grand plan of ten thousand years. You have earned the right to die."

After that, the void fell silent once more, leaving behind only a tranquil sea stained red with blood.

"Hah—"

"Finally gone. If he'd stayed any longer, I would've been exposed."

Not long after Tang Hao left, a young figure stood atop the shimmering sea.

Su Mo patted his chest and let out a long breath, wearing the expression of someone who had narrowly escaped death.

Compared to before, Su Mo had barely changed at all, as though the person who had just exploded into a cloud of blood had not been him.

"I really didn't expect you little bastard to still be alive."

Just as Su Mo had sorted out his emotions, a vigorous yet slightly angry voice sounded beside his ear.

"..."

Faced with the sudden voice, Su Mo rolled his eyes speechlessly. He then extended his right arm, spread open his palm, and said irritably, "Where are the things I told you to prepare?"

Seeing that she had failed to scare Su Mo, the mysterious voice abruptly changed into a cool, neutral female voice and said with an awkward laugh, "They've been ready for a long time. Please check them."

Before she had even finished speaking, an exquisitely crafted diamond-shaped metal bracer appeared in Su Mo's palm out of thin air. Its pale blue patterns gleamed, and it had a strong technological feel.

Su Mo put on the bracer and, with practiced ease, poured his Soul Power into it. Only after confirming that everything he needed had been prepared did he nod in satisfaction. "Where's the nearest land?"

"Go straight ahead for fifty kilometers, and you'll reach Aolai City."

The mysterious female voice answered without hesitation.

"Aolai City..."

Su Mo murmured the name thoughtfully, his left hand continuously stroking the bracer on his right wrist as a meaningful smile appeared on his face.

"Alright, you can leave now."

A moment later, Su Mo suddenly changed his expression and bluntly issued an order of dismissal to the mysterious voice. "Don't come looking for me again unless there's something important."

In response to Su Mo's sudden change in attitude, the mysterious voice immediately whined, "Nooo~ It wasn't easy for me to come out and get some fresh air!"

Thinking of how the other party was some ancient thing of unknown age pretending to act young, Su Mo felt a chill run down his spine. "Ugh, disgusting!"

Seeing that Su Mo remained unmoved, she hurriedly said, "Aren't you curious about the Silver Dragon King's whereabouts?"

Su Mo found her stiff attempt to change the subject rather amusing.

With that level of intelligence, it was no wonder she had been played in the palm of Tang San's hand.

"If I'm not mistaken, Gu Yuena should be in Aolai City. And she has lost her memories, so she no longer remembers her identity as the Master of Soul Beasts."

Su Mo raised his head and gazed at the distant coastline, blurred into a black line, speaking with absolute certainty.

The mysterious female voice, which had originally wanted to keep Su Mo in suspense, immediately lost her composure and asked anxiously, "How did you know?"

Su Mo did not answer. Instead, he slowly raised his right hand and stared through the gaps between his fingers at the setting sun, which was darkening at a visible pace.

The boundless, profound sea resembled an awakened beast, as though it intended to devour the last remaining light completely.

After a long while, Su Mo finally withdrew his gaze and slowly said, "It was merely a simple deduction."

"By doing this, Tang Hao wanted Gu Yuena to remain alone in human society."

"But what could Tang Hao gain by letting a Gu Yuena with a sound mind and deep self-awareness remain alone in human society?"

"If he wanted to gain something from Gu Yuena, he had to make her forget her identity and her past."

"Only then could Tang Hao interfere with Gu Yuena and obtain the result he wanted."

Su Mo's analysis left the other party speechless. After a long silence, she finally said, "Your analysis is correct. The Silver Dragon King has indeed forgotten her identity.

She has already been picked up by a little brat."

"Picked up by someone?" Su Mo frowned at those words and fell into thought. "So that was Tang Hao's plan?"

Hearing Su Mo say that he already knew Tang Hao's purpose, the owner of the mysterious voice urgently wanted to know what Tang Hao was plotting. "What is Tang Hao planning? Hurry up and tell me!"

This time, Su Mo did not keep her in suspense. He laid out all his conjectures in full detail.

After carefully listening to Su Mo's guesses, the owner of the mysterious voice found everything he said difficult to believe.

After all, that was the Silver Dragon King, half of the Dragon God herself. How could she possibly betray her own race because of so-called "love"?

As if sensing her distrust, Su Mo said calmly, "Because love is the greatest curse in this world.

Love can make people invincible, but likewise, it can also make people blind.

Even when they know the final outcome is like moths flying into a flame, people still cannot help wanting to lose themselves in it."

"Is it really as mystical as you say?" the mysterious voice muttered quietly, clearly unconvinced.

"Get lost!"

Seeing her question him again and again, Su Mo snapped irritably.

"Alright!"

"But are you really okay? After all, you fell from that kind of height..."

Before leaving, the mysterious person unexpectedly showed concern for Su Mo in a gentle tone.

To be honest, when she had seen Su Mo falling from the sky earlier, her heart had leaped into her throat.

If Su Mo had asked for help, then even if it meant exposing her identity before Tang Hao, she would have acted to save him.

Hearing her concern, Su Mo's expression softened considerably. "At least you have some conscience. I only lost an eye. It'll recover after a while."

As he spoke, Su Mo brushed aside his hair, revealing his right eye, whose pupil and iris had both turned completely white.

The mysterious person wanted to say something else, but before she could speak, Su Mo interrupted her directly. "You should go back!"

"Take care of yourself!"

After she left those words behind, there was no longer any movement in the void.

However, not long after the mysterious person departed, Su Mo suddenly realized something. He slapped his forehead with a regretful expression. "Damn it, I forgot to have her send me to shore!"
