Abandoned Woman Busy Farming

Chapter 2668: Chapter 2669: Shanhu’s Concealment

On the surface of the sea, the sailors who had gone to search for people surfaced one after another, waving to Teng Liu, ”Couldn’t find them!”

Gao Zhou had already dived four times, and at this moment, was anxious beyond measure, ”How come we can’t find Achun, and Ruozhu hasn’t returned either. Could something have happened?”

Tang Feng quickly grabbed him, ”Don’t go again yet, your physical strength is exhausted. What if you’re ambushed? Besides, you don’t even have a direction.”

Gao Zhou angrily shook off Tang Feng’s hand, ”Then we don’t search? What if something happened to them?”

Jianqi’s face was cold enough to drip water, but unfortunately, his strength in the sea was greatly reduced, not even comparable to those water-savvy sailors.

Yizi on the boat already had red-rimmed eyes, mumbling, ”It’s been so long, what should we do!”

Fo Lanying had been pacing on the boat, then suddenly stopped and started exchanging items in the system.

But after searching through the options, she could only find an item that confirmed Bai Ruozhu was still alive but failed to determine the exact location.

This was related to the fact she had just accepted the system, her level wasn’t high enough, and her points were insufficient.

”We definitely have to search, but we can’t lose our heads. Ruozhu and Yichun are not ordinary people, I believe they can protect themselves. But if we lose our heads now, they would lack a safe retreat and strong support,” Tang Feng said.

Gao Zhou panted heavily, and finally was helped onto the deck.

”Switch to a new batch of sailors to continue the search,” Tang Feng said to Teng Liu, then asked Old Ding, ”How’s the ship’s repair status?”

”It’s no longer taking in water, and I’ve also assigned people to pump out water, the boat won’t be in trouble, but it’s best to find a place to dock within seven days for a good repair,” Old Ding replied.

Tang Feng nodded, ”Let’s search for people here first, other matters can be arranged later.”

On the deck, Shanhu gazed at the vast sea with confusion and worry in her eyes.

”Is this ... could they have gone to ...” she muttered to herself.

Fo Lanying, with her strong Divine Sense, immediately noticed her abnormality, quickly walked over, and asked, ”What did you just say? What did you think of?”

Shanhu’s expression changed slightly, she hurriedly shook her head, ”It’s nothing, I’m just too worried about Ruozhu.”

”Do you know something? Why don’t you speak out? Ruozhu saved your life, right?” Fo Lanying felt increasingly odd, grabbed her arm, and pressed for an answer.

Qiu Zhi thought the two were about to fight and rushed over to protect Shanhu, saying, ”What’s the matter? Let’s talk about it civilly.”

Yuan Licheng also quickly walked behind Fo Lanying. If a quarrel broke out, he didn’t care why or who was right, he just wanted to protect his Lan Ying.

”Ask her, she just said something, she must know what we don’t. If Ruozhu and the others are missing, what’s stopping her from speaking out?” Fo Lanying glared at Qiu Zhiyi, ”Ruozhu is your master, have you forgotten your allegiance now that you’ve found a wife?”

Shanhu, in a moment of anxiety, tears fell like a broken string of Beads, knowing she shouldn’t hide things as Ruozhu had shown her kindness, but her sect had orders, they all had sworn an oath.

”Shanhu, tell us what you know, we won’t spread it around,” Qiu Zhi also felt something was wrong, urging gently.

”I really know nothing, just recall an old legend, Ruozhu and the others should be safe,” Shanhu said hurriedly.

”What legend?” Fo Lanying pressed.

Shanhu hesitated for a moment, ”It’s said that the Dragon King of Donghai invites handsome people as guests. Those invited will gain huge fortunes and return with gifts from the Dragon King.”

”Dragon King?” Fo Lanying expressed disbelief, ”How could there be a Dragon King, it sounds too mythical.”

”That’s why I just thought of it, I’m not sure,” Shanhu said.

Fo Lanying glanced at her, clearly suspicious, but with Qiu Zhi protecting her and without evidence, she had to let it go. Still, she kept an eye on Shanhu, feeling she was hiding something.

...

Bai Ruozhu made a round in the mist, then suddenly patted her head, ”This is definitely not the previous place, it’s an Illusory Realm, maybe I’ve fallen asleep.”

She simply sat cross-legged on the spot, stopped moving around; after all, it was an Illusory Realm, wandering around was useless.

Then, within a quarter of an hour, finally, an old voice couldn’t hold back and resounded.

”Don’t you want to get out?”

Bai Ruozhu lifted her eyelid, saw nothing.

”Only a fool wouldn’t, but will you let me out?”

”If you can meet my requirements, I will let you out,” said the old voice.

”Won’t do, too much trouble, let me out if you want,” Bai Ruozhu looked like she was ready to risk it.

”Aren’t you worried about your husband?” The old voice lost its previous calm tone, seemed about to lose its temper.

Bai Ruozhu continued sitting cross-legged, with a smirk, ”I have confidence in him.”

The voice was silent for a long time, probably at a loss for words.

”As long as you find the Venus Gemstone, I will let you out,” the old voice spoke again, but the aura wasn’t as strong as before.

This is what negotiation is about, when you need something from him, you have to bow your head. But it was clear Bai Ruozhu had the upper hand now.

”I don’t want to find it, let me out if you want,” Bai Ruozhu said lazily.

”You...”

The voice was exasperated to death, it seemed ready to take action.

But Bai Ruozhu’s eyes suddenly brightened, her finger moved, a thread of essence shot out into the mist, binding a black shadow tightly.

”You, you, you’re too despicable!” The voice was furious, ”You planned to delay time and catch me with magic technique, don’t dream of getting out, I’ll never let you out!”

Bai Ruozhu made a hand sign, the thread shortened, pulling the shadow to her front, revealing a Demon that looked about seven or eight, plump and genderless.

”Are you a little girl or a little boy?” Bai Ruozhu pinched its horned head.

It shouted angrily, ”You’re the child, I’ll kill you!”

”Get real, you’re just a Demon that can enter human Dreamland. Killing me in a Dreamland achieves nothing, as long as I don’t believe, I won’t die.” Bai Ruozhu sneered, ”I’ve seen two demons more powerful than you, and you still think you can kill me?”

Indeed, this Demon was the same kind as Yan Zhi and Gong Feng but looked much younger.

”You’ve met others of my kind?” the demon asked, excited.

Bai Ruozhu raised an eyebrow, ”More than met, a powerful Male Demon is helping me run a Restaurant.”

”Who are you? You’re not a Yin Yang Master, how could he submit to you?” the Little Demon asked, displeased.

Bai Ruozhu tightened her grip around its neck, ”Don’t think I’ll spare you because you’re young. Now it’s my turn to ask you questions.”
