Chapter 438 - Uncharted Waters
Shao Qingge drove the suspension car in the direction of the light.
It was late at night and the whole sea was quiet and windless. The street lights around the coastline
were getting further and further away from them.
It was dark all around them. There were many stars in the sky and some stars were projected onto
the surface of the sea, as if countless diamonds had been spilled on the surface of the sea.
Shao Qingge’s vehicle floated in the air and got closer and closer to the bright light.
Suddenly, a hurricane flew around them. The team members felt a strong force and their whole
bodies suddenly leaned back. Yu Hanjiang hurriedly hugged Xiao Lou’s waist. “Be careful!”
Ye Qi had been sitting on the sofa. Since the suspension car was blown over by the strong wind, he
rolled to the rear of the vehicle like a ball. There was a loud ‘boom’ in his ear and the suspension car
fell directly into the sea!
If the escape window wasn’t opened in time when the vehicle fell into the water, the window would
become more and more difficult to open due to the water pressure outside being greater than the
air pressure inside the vehicle. Then the people trapped in the vehicle would suffocate and die.
Yu Hanjiang knew the first aid method after falling into the sea.
He was quick. The moment the car crashed into the water, he took out the Night Devil Saber and
slashed the skylight of the suspension car in one blow. Then he used the light footwork card and flew
into the sky with Xiao Lou.
The skylight was split apart and water poured wildly into the car.
Ye Qi was caught off guard. Sea water poured into his mouth and he was forced to cough. “Cough...
cough!”
He couldn’t swim and a lot of water poured into his lungs with the coughing. Ye Qi was
uncomfortable as he waved his hands and struggled. Shao Qingge hurriedly swam over, grabbed him
and swam out of the suspension car through the skylight.
Yu Hanjiang pulled out the white silk card. Shao Qingge grabbed the white cloth and Yu Hanjiang
pulled the two of them out of the sea.
Lu Jiuchuan and Tang Ci could swim. They quickly held their breaths and climbed out of the
suspension car.
At almost the same moment they climbed out, the metal car sank into the deep sea at a speed that
was visible to the naked eye. It was only then that Lu Jiuchuan discovered there was a huge vortex
nearby!
Lu Jiuchuan couldn’t help cursing. “Fuck! Did Di Renjie point us to a clear path or a dead end path? If
our reactions weren’t quick enough, we would be drowned...”
Xiao Lou exclaimed, “Everyone, run and pay attention avoiding the vortex in the sea!”
The vortex in the sea swept toward them like a tornado, threatening to consume all of them. Lu
Jiuchuan’s expression changed and he decisively summoned Vermilion Bird.
The big bird spread open its flame-like wings and flew into the air with Lu Jiuchuan on its back.
Yu Hanjiang threw the white silk card to his brother and Lu Jiuchuan took it smoothly. He tied Tang Ci
with the white cloth and flew forward. Yu Hanjiang hugged Xiao Lou while running with the light
footwork card while Shao Qingge took out his teleportation card and helped Ye Qi teleport 50 meters
at a time.
Ye Qi’s face was red from the sea water. Shao Qingge patted his back lightly and asked softly, “Are you
okay?”
“I’m fine, cough cough... hurry!”
The six people used their fastest speed to move and thrillingly avoided this vortex!
The surrounding area was pitch black and despite the help of the starlight in the sky, it was
impossible to see the sea surface. However, he always felt there were many things floating in the
nearby sea...
He took out the Night Pearl.
A chill went down Xiao Lou’s spine when he saw the sea area illuminated by the Night Pearl. “Look at
the sea!”
His teammates turned their heads. They saw the wreckage of countless ships scattered on the
surrounding sea surface and many white bones! Among them was a boat floating crookedly in the
sea. The wood of the surface was rotted but they could faintly see a lot of blood on the wood as well
as torn clothing.
Ye Qi’s eyes widened. “Is this a... sea restricted area?”
According to legend, there were certain sea areas where humans couldn’t enter. It was because it
was impossible for those who entered to go out alive. There was the so-called ‘Devil’s Triangle’ in

movies. All ships that arrived in this area couldn’t avoid the fate of being sunk.
Based on the wreckage of a large number of ships around them, they had accidentally entered a
forbidden area. They could only escape alive by relying on some powerful cards.
The light designated by Di Renjie happened to be in the center of the sea vortex.
Xiao Lou took a deep breath. “What the hell is there?”
Lu Jiuchuan suggested, “Perhaps that whirlpool is the entrance to the underwater world?”
It was a pity that none of them were professional divers. If they dived toward the bottom of the sea,
they could barely survive for a minute or two. After a long time, they could only drown. How could
they explore the vortex?
Xiao Lou asked Yu Hanjiang, “What should we do?”
It was the first time he had no idea in his mind. Di Renjie might’ve helped them find the key sea area
but how could they go down there? It would be great if there was Liu Qiao. Xiao Lou remembered
that Liu Qiao had the fairy tail ‘Mermaid Princess’ card in her hand. This could turn the whole team
into merpeople and they wouldn’t have to be afraid of the sea.
He was just thinking this when a strange song came from the surface of the sea.
Everything around them was silent. There was only the ethereal and clear singing voice that was like
a call from ancient times. It sang softly in everyone’s ears. They couldn’t hear what she was singing
about but the sound was soft and beautiful, like it came from Heaven.
Lu Jiuchuan’s expression changed. This was exactly what he heard before he fell unconscious on the
bug planet.
There wasn’t even a shadow around them. It wasn’t known where the song came from.
The song continued, as if there was some magic calling them.
The six people gradually became a bit confused, as if a large garden had appeared in the whirlpool on
the surface of the sea. There was a road leading to the depths of a sea of flowers that was even more
beautiful than a mirage.
Yu Hanjiang pinched his legs and ordered, “Everyone, quickly call your ears. This sound can confuse
you!”
The group returned to their senses. Xiao Lou immediately took out the Voice Headset and gave it to
everyone. The six people covered their left ears with one hand and pressed down on the bump of

the right earpiece with their other hand. The singing could no longer be heard and they regained
their sanity.
Ye Qi murmured, “I seemed to have a hallucination just now?”
Lu Jiuchuan added, “This song is a bit magical. I remember that when I heard the song on the bug
planet, I was in a trance and thought I saw Heaven. It must’ve been a illusion!”
Tang Ci said softly, “A marine creature that can sing? It is the legendary mermaid?”
Xiao Lou was stunned before he remembered a rumor. “Right! It was written in the Classic of
Mountains and Seas that there was a type of fish person in the deep sea with the upper body of a
human and the tail of a fish as the lower body. These fish people like to sing and are very good at
confusing people with the magical singing. If a ship passes by and someone hears the fish people’s
song, they will be bewitched by it until they die. The fish people often uses the singing to trap
passing ships and kill the humans.”
Ye Qi this and suddenly realized. “I know the mermaids. Fairy tale games often have the mermaid
singing setting... the fish people in the ancient Chinese legends are actually the mermaids in Western
fantasy legends?”
Xiao Lou nodded. “Yes, it is the deep sea mermaids!”
Xiao Lou thought of the Mermaid Princess card that Liu Qiao had drawn and had a strange
premonition. “Perhaps Xiao Liu, Senior Gui and Old Mo aren’t human this time but deep sea
merpeople!”
Lu Jiuchuan couldn’t help saying, “However, if they’re on this planet, why didn’t they react when we
used the Peach Blossom Spring? Can’t they teleport if we are all on the same planet?”
Xiao Lou made a guess. “Perhaps the merpeople can’t go to shore or perhaps the deep sea
environment blocked the call of the card?” He paused and added, “Of course, I’m just making a
guess. I’m not sure if Xiao Liu and the others are here or not.”
Yu Hanjiang had a serious expression. “If Liu Qiao’s group are really merpeople, it is likely that the
merpeople have a separate plot line. Something has happened that they need to solve.”
Shao Qingge rubbed his temples. “The question now is how do the six of us enter the environment of
the merpeople?” He looked at Ye Qi, whose face was red and his hair was wet. “Xiao Ye and
Professor Xiao can’t swim. Group Leader Yu, you might be able to swim but the merpeople live in the
deep sea. Humans can’t go down there, right?”
They were stuck in an endless loop.
If Liu Qiao was present then everyone could become merpeople and they didn’t need to be afraid of
the sea.
The question was that they couldn’t find Liu Qiao now.
Tang Ci’s expression was sullen. “My drones can’t enter the sea... I knew I should’ve made a
mechanical submarine.”
Shao Qingge had a flash of inspiration. “Can I buy a submarine with money?”
Lu Jiuchuan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Chief Shao, money can’t solve everything.
Submarines are military controlled equipment and ordinary people definitely can’t buy it. I would’ve
been able to use my authority to get one in the Locke Empire but I have escaped with Tang Ci... we
aren’t familiar with this empire.”
The six people floated in the sea and looked at each other.
There was a moment of silence before Xiao Lou suddenly thought of a method. He hit his forehead
energetically. “...Heart has a Tacit Exchange of Romantic Feelings? How could I forget about this?”
Ye Qi’s eyes lit up. “Yes! We can use Heart has a Tacit Exchange of Romantic Feelings to establish a
mental connection with teammates. If Liu Qiao is on the planet, we can connect to her and have her
come to meet us!”
Xiao Lou immediately summoned Qin Guan, used Heart has a Tacit Exchange of Romantic Feelings
and invited Liu Qiao to establish a connection.
The invitation was sent out for a moment before there really was a response.
The familiar girl’s voice was heard in his mind. It contained a bit of doubt. “Professor Xiao?”
Xiao Lou was really pleased hearing this sound!
He hurriedly said, “Xiao Liu, where are you? We are now in the sea of Azure Planet. Since entering
the Q secret room, I haven’t seen you. Are you with Senior Gui and Old Mo?”
Liu Qiao, “......”
There was sudden silence in Xiao Lou’s mind.
Xiao Lou was puzzled and wondered, “Xiao Liu?”
Liu Qiao’s voice rang out agai. “Professor Xiao, what are you talking about? Didn’t we just meet?”
