Three days later, at Sea God Island pier in the early morning, the mist had not completely dissipated.
A sailboat with a streamlined body and engraved with light blue divine patterns was moored quietly on the shore, gently undulating with the waves.
The hull is not too big, but the material is extraordinary, and it faintly emits the same wave as Sea God's Power. It is obviously not an ordinary thing.
Ye Qing stood on the pier, with a tall and straight posture, and a bit of youthful vigor and calmness between his brows.
Behind him, Ah Yin stood quietly in a light blue dress, with a hint of tranquility on her beautiful face.
But deep in those blue eyes, there seemed to be a hint of complex emotions that even she herself was not fully aware of.
But this time, the one standing at the bow of the ship, preparing to set off with them, was no longer the "unreliable" Sea Dragon Douluo.
Bo Saixi changed from the solemn red robe of the past and put on a moon-white dress.
Her long sea-blue hair was casually spread behind her head, revealing her slender white neck and graceful collarbones.
The whole person looks a little less majestic and sacred than usual, and a little more gentle and tender, but it is still breathtakingly beautiful, making people unable to take their eyes away.
According to common sense, Bo Saixi, as Sea God Island Grand Pontiff, cannot easily leave Sea God Island.
Because she needs to sit here to resist the peerless Ferocious Beast, also known as Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, who is eyeing Sea God Island in the deep sea.
Once she leaves, Sea God Island will lose its strongest guardian and will most likely be attacked by that giant beast.
After all, the blind eye was stabbed by Sea God with a trident thousands of years ago.
But now, the situation is completely different.
Ye Qing brought back Heart of the Sea God and successfully integrated it with Sea God Trident.
In other words, the current Sea God Island is controlled by spiritual thoughts.
In this case, let alone Deep Sea Demonic Whale King.
Even if a god comes, he has to get slapped twice before he can think about whether he can escape intact.
Therefore, Bo Saixi could safely leave Sea God Island, whom she had guarded for nearly a hundred years, and legitimately follow Ye Qing in the name of "personally protecting God Child."
The sailboat slowly left the dock and drew a beautiful white track on the sea.
The towering silhouette of Sea God Island gradually shrank in the morning mist, and finally turned into a blurry blue silhouette on the horizon.
At night.
Above the boundless sea, the wind and waves are calm.
A bright moon hung in the night sky, casting thousands of hectares of silver light, reflecting the sea surface with sparkling light, as if it were covered with a layer of broken silver.
The sailboat lowered most of its sails and drifted forward slowly and steadily with the gentle waves.
At the stern of the boat, Ye Qing and Ah Yin were sitting side by side on the side of the boat, with their feet dangling in the air.
Below is the deep and dark water, reflecting the bright moon and stars in the sky.
The sea breeze blew gently, carrying the unique saltiness and coolness of the sea, blowing their hair and clothes.
Ye Qing raised his head slightly and looked at the bright moon in the night sky with a relaxed and comfortable expression.
Ah Yin sat quietly beside him, but his eyes occasionally drifted towards the distant Sea God Island, which had completely disappeared under the sea level, with a trace of indescribable complexity in his eyes.
I don't know how much time passed, but Ah Yin finally couldn't bear it anymore.
She turned her head slightly, looked at Ye Qing's side face that looked particularly handsome in the moonlight, and spoke softly.
There was a hint of hesitation in her voice, and a hint of emotion that even she herself couldn't explain:
"Xiaoqing... do you and senior... really have... that kind of relationship?"
Hearing this, Ye Qing withdrew his gaze from looking up at the moonlight and turned to look at Ah Yin.
He did not avoid the question, nor did he show any embarrassment or concealment. He just nodded lightly and admitted frankly:
"Well, what's wrong?"
Although a few days ago, when Ah Yin accidentally bumped into Bo Saixi coming out of Ye Qing's room with a look of charm and contentment that she had never seen before, she had already vaguely guessed the answer in her heart.
But at this moment, when she actually heard Ye Qing admit it in person, she couldn't help but feel an indescribable shock.
She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but she didn't know what to say.
She lowered her head and gently held the hem of her skirt with both hands. After being silent for a while, she whispered softly, with a hint of complex meaning in her voice:
"I just... didn't expect... Senior, she... is already over a hundred years old after all... and you..."
She didn't finish her words, but her meaning was already obvious.
In her opinion, although Bo Saixi has a peerless appearance, he is extremely powerful.
But the age gap is ultimately an insurmountable gap.
It was hard for her to imagine how a teenager like Ye Qing could cross this gap and come together with Bo Saixi.
Ye Qing heard this and was not angry. He just smiled and said in a relaxed tone, "What does age mean? As long as I like it, as long as she is willing, that's fine, right?"
Ah Yin was silent.
The complex emotions in her heart gradually turned into a faint sourness and loss that even she couldn't explain clearly.
At this moment, Ye Qing seemed to notice Ah Yin's depressed mood.
He stretched out his hand, patted the back of Ah Yin's hand, and said softly:
"Don't worry. I won't forget what I promised you."
Ah Yin's body trembled slightly.
She raised her head and looked at Ye Qing. Water seemed to be shining in her blue eyes.
"I... I didn't mean that..."
Ye Qing looked at her hesitant and complicated expression and didn't say anything more.
He stood up, stretched a lot, yawned, and said, "Okay, it's getting late, go back to bed. We have to travel tomorrow."
Ah Yin shook his head slightly and turned his gaze back to the sparkling sea. His voice was soft and erratic, as if coming from afar. "You go first. I... sit for a while."
He nodded and said nothing more.
He just turned around calmly and walked towards the cabin.
The footsteps gradually faded away, and finally disappeared at the entrance of the cabin.
At the stern of the ship, only Ah Yin was left, sitting there quietly.
The moonlight fell like water on her body, coating her light blue dress with a silvery white halo.
The sea breeze gently blew her long hair and skirt, but it seemed unable to dissipate the faint, vague sadness between her eyebrows.
She looked at the boundless sea that seemed to be able to swallow everything, and at the cold bright moon in the night sky, and suddenly an indescribable feeling of loneliness arose in her heart.
She didn't know why she was like this.
Obviously Ye Qing is very good to her.
It is obvious that senior Bo Saixi also takes great care of her.
Obviously she has escaped the fate of being hunted, and even sees the hope of eternal life...
But why...
When she sees Ye Qing admitting her relationship with Bo Saixi, a trace of...
Where was the sourness that made her feel so uncomfortable?
She doesn't know.
All she knew was that the moonlight that night seemed particularly cold.
