“You already have the treasure pearl, right? In the future, if you want to meet me, you can use the treasure pearl to enter the Dragon Silk Palace!” said Beautiful Silk.
Li Yunmu nodded. The waver boat was finally ready to set sail because of the assistance of Miss An.
But Beautiful Silk was somewhat reluctant to part with him. After enjoying the intimacy of a couple for two days, she was unable to forget him.
While gazing at the waver boat getting farther away, she stroked her abdomen and said, “In the future, you will become the master of Dragon Silk Palace!”
As the waver boat sailed through the sea, Miss An appeared comparably more excited. The waver boat’s speed was very fast, and both of them could enjoy the scenery of the ocean.
“Finally we escaped from those guys. Why exactly did you lose consciousness? And who was it that destroyed the blacksmith’s workshop? Why don’t I remember anything?”
Li Yunmu faintly smiled and said, “I also don’t remember. Hadn’t I also lost consciousness?”
He gave a bare minimum explanation of the whole affair while the system went dormant for the time being. If it was not for its suggestion earlier, Miss An’s life would have been in true danger before.
Somehow it happened that he had once again rescued Miss An’s life.
“Why the hell are you looking at me like that? Hmph!”
Miss An felt the warmth in Li Yunmu’s gaze and quickly shook him by the shoulders.
Li Yunmu promptly withdrew his gaze and mumbled, “Nothing, I just felt that when you smile, you look quite pretty.”
Miss An was slightly startled, and her face instantly turned red. She hadn’t thought that Li Yunmu would become so charming when he talked silly like that! No wonder an elegant woman like the dragon lady had feelings toward him.
But when she thought about his words, she recalled that she indeed hadn’t smiled in a long time. From the day Underworld Serpent was established, she had been busy every day and had forgotten the feeling of being happy from the bottom of her heart.
However, after interacting with Li Yunmu for a few days, she had gradually come to feel a hint of joy in her heart.
That joy had completely vanished after the relationship between Li Yunmu and the dragon lady was established, but after the demonic being invaded her body and Li Yunmu absorbed it, she lost a portion of her memories.
They were precisely the ones from what happened after they entered the Dragon Silk Palace.
After they disappeared, Miss An’s impression toward Li Yunmu wasn’t only limited to his and the dragon lady’s entanglement.
Miss An coughed two times and said in a soft voice, “Who knows whether you are saying the truth or not. I have to tell you that we are a single man and a single woman traveling together on a waver boat. You-you-you… Don’t you think of overstepping your bounds!”
When she said those words, actually another scene had taken form in her mind, and at the bottom of her heart, a hint of thirst and expectation was born.
But it was impossible for her to display them in front of a man.
Li Yunmu only understood Miss An’s surface actions and said in earnestness, “Don’t worry, I definitely wouldn’t do anything to overstep my bounds. I am an honorable man!”
Miss An snorted at him. “Hey, I haven’t asked you until now, but what’s you aim for going to the eastern domain? I can’t always follow you, right? What if you’re going to attempt something dangerous? I don’t want to follow you in throwing my life away. I have only come to the eastern domain to evade the hunt for the time being.”
“I am going to the eastern domain to find the ancient secret method to save my world.”
After interacting with Miss An for the last couple days, Li Yunmu felt that she was a good and honest person. Although when she had been the leader of Underworld Serpent she had acted in an evil manner, she was a woman. Such characteristics were something that all women should have.
Crafty and unruly, willful, domineering, delicate!
Li Yunmu looked in the direction in which waver boat was moving and said, “It’s quite likely that after we reach the Ancient Lands, we will have to part ways because this matter is very dangerous. I think it would be better to not involve you.”
Li Yunmu’s words caused Miss An to suddenly have a strange feeling in her heart. The travel with him was the most relaxed and happy period in her life. Although they had went through many dangerous experiences, they had turned into friends during them.
She had always been under great pressure when she was at Underworld Serpent. But after meeting Li Yunmu, she had become much more optimistic.
“En! Then we will each go our way in the Ancient Lands! In any case, I intend to live in the eastern domain for the time being, so you can go and find your ancient secret method! I am too lazy to care about you.”
After Miss An finished speaking, she leaned her head against the wall of the waver boat. Her thoughts were floating far away, and she felt a hint of despair in her heart.
Li Yunmu was also actually reluctant in his heart. Once he thought about the time when the waver boat reached the Ancient Lands and they would have to part ways, he began to pray in his heart that the boat would go slower. He wanted for them to have at least a little bit more time together.
However, the waver boat’s speed was really fast, just as the dragon lady had said. Like a dragon travelling through the sea, they closed in on the Ancient Lands in no time.
The two people had gone to rest for the time being when a loud bang suddenly echoed through the boat. It woke both of them up.
Miss An leapt up and cried out in fear. “What happened?”
Li Yunmu observed their surroundings through the window. What made him anxious was that the waver boat had knocked against a reef, unable to proceed forward.
“An accident, the waver boat has been ruined!” Miss An went to stand on the deck and frowned. “Can’t you even watch the direction? Now that the waver boat is ruined, how will we continue moving toward the Ancient Lands? Don’t you want to obtain the ancient secret method?”
Although Miss An seemed to be reprimanding Li Yunmu, flowers were blooming in her heart. If the waver boat couldn’t proceed forward, she could continue spending time with Li Yunmu; they wouldn’t have to part ways just yet.
Li Yunmu was much more anxious compared to Miss An upon realizing that the waver boat was broken. His plan to reach the Ancient Lands would be greatly delayed, and the danger to his world would increase greatly.
Perhaps Miss An wasn’t worried, but he truly couldn’t wait.
Li Yunmu and Miss An went out of the waver boat to check the situation. Outside, they confirmed that the waver boat truly couldn’t be used anymore.
When they reached the surface of the sea, they saw an island not far away. Many native villagers on it had gathered together and were looking at them like they had seen monsters.
“What is this place?”
Li Yunmu slowly reached the island with Miss An. “Wouldn’t it be better to ask them?”
