In a cave hidden on the seabed, the white light dissipated, and two figures slowly emerged.

As soon as he appeared, Fenghuo waved his hand, isolating the surrounding seawater. "Placing the array plate on the seabed, I don't know who came up with that idea, they must be out of their mind."

After cursing, Fenghuo grabbed Shen Ge, pointed at his nose, and said, "Kid, from now on we're going our separate ways. You can go wherever you want, just don't come causing me any trouble."

"Also, don't say you're from Heavenly South, otherwise you'll definitely have a hard time in this area, and you might even be hunted down."

Also, don't destroy this formation. I don't care, but if you want to go back, don't touch it.

After saying that, Fenghuo took out two Jade Slip slips from his Storage Bag and tossed them into Shen Ge: "One of them was entrusted to me by your master to give to you, and the other was entrusted to me by that woman from the Purple Qi Sect to give to you. We'll part ways here."

After saying that, Fenghuo flew away angrily. A moment later, the ropes binding Shen Ge were loosened, and the ropes transformed into three streaks of light that chased after the direction Fenghuo had left in.

After regaining his freedom, Shen Ge immediately drew his sword and chased after Fenghuo, but when he broke out of the water, Feng Huo had already disappeared.

"You old bastard, you son of a bitch, I'll chop you up next time I see you!" Shen Ge cursed angrily before returning to the array plate.

He remained silent for a while, then finally took out a few array flags to conceal his aura. He was just about to set up an array to hide the place when he changed his mind and put the flags away. After all, these were not high-level items and would be easy for people with high cultivation levels to spot. Originally, no one was paying attention to this place, but setting up a few concealment arrays would be an obvious way of telling others that this place was unusual.

After memorizing the various patterns on the array plate, Shen Ge kept a sample, just in case the array plate broke in the future and he wouldn't be able to repair it.

After doing all this, Shen Ge returned to the sea and randomly chose a direction to fly in.

When you arrive in an unfamiliar place, the most important thing is not to find a place to bury yourself in cultivation, but to figure out the environment and the strength of the surrounding forces. After all, you're already here, so it's good to take a look around and broaden your horizons.

In the opposite direction from Shen Ge's flight, about ten thousand miles away, a small sailboat floated on the sea. The boat was not big, only about the size of one person, but there was a deck chair on it. Fenghuo was lying on the deck chair, leisurely drinking wine and munching on the wings of some kind of Demon Beast, looking very relaxed and comfortable, as if he was on vacation.

"Should we mess with that kid's memory?" Fenghuo pondered while drinking and gnawing on a chicken wing. "Never mind, if it's changed, it's changed. He's not so bad this way. Although he was a bit impulsive, it didn't have a big impact."

"Besides, it's better that he forgot about that girl, saving him from suffering. As for my junior sister, we'll talk about her after this kid goes back. Anyway, with my junior sister's abilities, even if that kid's memories are fully formed and stable, she can still beat him back."

Fenghuo ultimately decided not to interfere with Shen Ge's memories. After all, his senior brothers and sisters had gone through a lot of trouble to send that kid to the Luo Heaven Sea, probably because of some troublesome matters. It was better for that kid to forget, so as not to think about anything unnecessary.

On the other side, Shen Ge sped along, flying for more than three hours before finally sensing the presence of living beings. He quickly headed in that direction.

As soon as he got close to Shen Ge, he frowned. A giant octopus at the peak of the second tier was attacking a ship, and the people on board were clearly not going to be able to hold it off.

He really didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing, but for some reason, even though he intended to leave, his body just wouldn't move.

Seeing that the giant tentacle was about to shred the entire ship, Shen Ge shook his head and commanded a sword strike. A green sword light pierced through the giant octopus's head.

The octopus carcass sank into the sea. At that moment, a handsome young man in his early twenties flew up on a flying sword, bowed to Shen Ge, and said, "This junior Shang Xing, on behalf of everyone on the merchant ship, thanks you for saving our lives, senior."

Shen Ge nodded calmly without saying a word.

"Senior, if you have no urgent business, would you be willing to board the ship? I will prepare a banquet to entertain you. Although it cannot repay your life-saving grace, it is still a token of my gratitude."

Shen Ge nodded, and in one stride, he was already on the ship.

The Shang Xing hurriedly returned to the ship on his flying sword and called out, "Someone, go to the kitchen and have the chef prepare a feast with the best ingredients. The rest of you go and repair the ship."

The Shang Xing could represent the entire ship meant that he held the highest position on board, so his words were commands.

After giving his instructions, the Shang Xing accompanied Shen Ge to the main hall at the highest point. As soon as Shen Ge sat down, a girl at the Qi Refining Fifth Layer placed a cup of tea next to him.

"Senior, this is all we have. Please don't find it unpalatable," the Shang Xing said with a smile, standing to the side.

Shen Ge picked up the teacup and opened the lid. Immediately, a rich floral fragrance wafted out, its aroma gentle and fragrant, with a great sense of layering, as if one were in a sea of flowers.

Shen Ge smiled faintly, took a sip, and put the teacup down, saying, "Why are you so reserved? I'm not going to eat you."

The Shang Xing smiled, slightly embarrassed. "No, senior. I'm just a little nervous."

"Do you have a nautical chart? Let me take a look."

"Yes, yes, senior, here." The Shang Xing hurriedly took out a fish skin sea chart from his Storage Bag, unfolded it, and placed it on the table in front of Shen Ge. He said somewhat apologetically, "Senior, this junior only has a sea chart of Yaoguang Island and one nearby island. The area is a bit small. I hope you won't find it inconvenient."

Shen Ge glanced at the sea chart. Although there were many islands on it, only five of the larger ones were marked with their names. Among them, Yaoguang Island was the largest, and the other four islands combined were not as big as it.

"Senior, we are here now. We started from Sea Spirit Island, and we still have to pass through Sea Billow Island before we can reach Yaoguang Island," the Shang Xing said, pointing to a point on the sea chart.

Shen Ge estimated the distance according to the markings on the nautical chart and found that they were still 30,000 li away from Yaoguang Island, which was quite far.

"Senior, Yaoguang Island has been quite lively lately. I heard there's going to be some kind of ceremony or celebration going on."

"Oh?" Shen Ge shook his head and said, "I don't know, I've never heard of it. I went to Yaoguang Island to exchange for some Cultivation Resources."

Shen Ge immediately rejected the other party's idea of asking him for information, and at the same time, he didn't ask any more questions. After all, it would seem suspicious if he didn't even know some common-sense things.

Since you're new here, it's best to keep a low profile, say as little as possible or nothing at all, and absolutely avoid saying too much, as too much talk leads to mistakes.

After all, if he were exposed, he might be hunted down again, and he wasn't going to do that. He was already being hunted down in Heavenly South, and if he were to be hunted down again after coming to the Luo Heaven Sea, wouldn't that be a pointless trip?

Although he was kidnapped by that old man, it's undeniable that this place is a good place to escape trouble. If he had known he could escape here, he wouldn't have gone to that dangerous Ice and Snow Plateau.
