Amid the raging waves, a calm patch of territory had been cut off by immense power.
"Blood King really is cunning." A voice spoke from within a suspended, crystal-clear drop of water.
Within a wisp of motionless Azure Wind, a voice said, "From a commander as promising as Yu Siqing to a True King like Blood King, who was qualified to challenge the Emperor Lord, that Myriad Eyes truly gave not the slightest warning. He only watched; he didn't interfere."
"Wei Xun, your plan failed." A voice rolled like thunder, yet sounded entirely at ease.
"Yes." Wei Xun's expression remained calm. He smiled faintly. "I invited you all here to discover where Myriad Eyes' true body was. Then we would venture deep into the Cang Sea and kill him, putting a stop to the Sea Race's rise and ending the Calamity of a Hundred Years for the Human Race. It seems we have indeed failed. Myriad Eyes was more cautious than I imagined. At the End of the World Terrace, he nearly shifted his gaze, and I thought he was utterly reckless. Looking back, perhaps that was only a probe in the Near-Sea Archipelago."
"You casually made a move to draw Myriad Eyes' attention to the Human Race's Prodigies, but who knew he wouldn't care at all? Then you racked your brains to put the Sea Race's rising stars in danger without leaving a trace, but Myriad Eyes remained silent. Luring Blood King here required using so many hidden agents, and now Blood King has escaped, while Myriad Eyes has vanished... So many of us waited here, and this operation came to nothing."
The voice like rolling thunder said, "At the very least, we could have used our control over movement within the Lost Realm to launch a splendid battle."
