I Have a Date with a Thousand-year-old Female Corpse
Chapter 1011 Demon

Chapter 1011: Chapter 1011 Demon

You seemed very satisfied with Chang Ao’s attitude. Pointing to the waters to the north-east, you asked, "May I inquire what place lies about three miles from here in the water?"

Chang Ao followed the direction you were pointing and, after a moment of contemplation, replied, "That area is also under my jurisdiction. I remember there should be a sunken ship there, seemingly from an island country off the north-east coast. It was sunk by a storm about two years ago. Normally, I would be the one to claim the items from the shipwreck, but there appears to be a seal around the ship that I am unable to break, no matter what I do."

"Oh? Such a thing exists." You were very clear that there must be something you needed within that sunken ship, a profound sense similar to the one that the Immovable Dragon Pole had given you initially.

"Indeed, if the two of you are interested in that sunken ship, I could have my subordinates take you there."

"Heh, there’s no need to trouble you, my friend. We can manage on our own." With that, you nodded at Chang Ao and, grabbing Qin Yuxuan, your bodies transformed into streams of water, surging toward the site of the sunken ship with a speed that even astonished Chang Ao.

After being stunned for a few seconds, Chang Ao patted his chest and sighed, "Good thing I didn’t get into a conflict with this Madman Luo. It seems my Imperial Father’s assessment of Madman Luo was correct. This person is unfathomable, and it’s best not to have further dealings with him in the future."

If Chang Ao had heard you being called Madman Luo, who knows what you would have thought.

As it turned out, your fame had spread far and wide after the battle with Northern Dipper’s Yangming Tanlang Star Lord. Your deeds were known not only in the Mortal World and the Heavenly Realm, but even among the Hai Clan of the Eastern Sea.

Moreover, some had uncovered important information about your connection with Monkey King. Once this information spread, the Eastern Sea Dragon King immediately ordered all sea creatures never to engage in conflict with you and to help you if necessary.

In reality, this was an extension of the kinship between the Hai Clan and Sun Wukong. Although Sun Wukong had once stolen the treasures from the Dragon Palace of the Eastern Sea, the Eastern Sea Dragon King did not feel any sense of loss. Moreover, Sun Wukong later repaid his debt with concrete actions, and given that Little White Dragon and Sun Wukong were sworn brothers, the two families naturally grew familiar with each other over time.

You and Qin Yuxuan roamed freely at the sea’s bottom, feeling as if you were soaring through the sky. In the blink of an eye, the two of you arrived in front of a sunken ship.

The environment around the sunken ship seemed desolate, no, rather eerie. Although it was still on the continental shelf and moonlight could still sprinkle down.

However, the surroundings of the sunken ship really did not raise any interest. You saw many skeletons scattered around the ship, of various species and sizes; the largest of them was even half the size of the ship itself. It lay prostrate on the left side of the ship, its skull nowhere to be found, but judging by its size, this creature must have been formidable when alive.

Qin Yuxuan’s attention seemed to be elsewhere, not on the sunken ship but rather on the Water Manipulation Technique you had just used. In her experience, she had never seen such magic. You seemed as if you were one of the Hai Clan, able to swim freely through the water, apparently unaffected by buoyancy or currents.

Additionally, both Qin Yuxuan and you could breathe freely underwater, as if you were carrying a precious Water Repelling Bead.

Qin Yuxuan had always been forthright with her words, unable to hide her thoughts.

Immediately, Qin Yuxuan patted your shoulder and asked, "Hey, who taught you the Water Manipulation Technique that you used?"

If one were to speak the truth, the Scenic Sect is actually the most practically applicable among The Eight Gates of Heaven, for it encompasses the Five Elements Technique, including the Water Manipulation Skill.

"Why aren’t you answering my question?" Qin Yuxuan seemed somewhat displeased.

"Oh, sorry, I was a bit distracted. Actually, the Water Manipulation Technique was taught to me by my mentor." You naturally shifted the responsibility onto that so-called teacher.

"Do you have a teacher?"

"Of course, I do."

"Then who is your teacher? I’ve never heard anyone mention them before. I always thought Uncle Luo taught you everything you know."

Qin Qiong and Luo Cheng had been very close friends, sharing a deep private relationship when you were young; when Qin Qiong passed away, Luo Cheng even shed tears, which was said to be the first time he ever did. Because of Luo Cheng’s frequent absences, the relationship between the Qin and Luo families gradually faded, and as Qin Yuxuan entered the Immortal Sect for cultivation, the relationship between the two families faded away as well.

"Sorry, my mentor has passed away, so I prefer not to speak his name."

"I’m sorry, I didn’t know..." Seeing your somber expression and thinking about your current predicament, Qin Yuxuan couldn’t help but feel a bit heartbroken.

"It’s alright, even the supreme beings of heaven and earth have their end. My mentor passed away peacefully." You smiled, not wanting to dwell on this topic any longer.

Then, pointing to the sunken ship in front of you, "It’s strange, this ship looks like just an ordinary merchant vessel, nothing special."

For some reason, the closer you got to the sunken ship, the fainter that mysterious feeling became. If that feeling hadn’t persisted, you would have thought you were in the wrong place.

"Let me give it a try." At that moment, Qin Yuxuan pulled away from your left hand. During that brief moment of release, a blush swept over her delicate face, catching you off-guard and leaving you in a daze, internally sighing, "This girl is just too tempting."

While freeing herself from you, Qin Yuxuan had already formed a spell with her hands. You could see her whole body emitting a faint blue light, which seemed to repel the water away from her. Although Qin Yuxuan also knew the Water Manipulation Technique, hers wasn’t as advanced as yours, unable to swim through the water like a fish as you could.

With a casual gesture of her left hand, Qin Yuxuan formed a sword technique, and with a flicker of blue light, a Green Light Sword shot towards the sunken ship. The Green Light Sword, when it was less than three meters away from the ship, suddenly encountered a dark red Energy Mastery Shield. This dark red shield, like a living creature, grew something resembling octopus tentacles, which directly shattered the Green Light Sword into pieces.

"Eh?" You and Qin Yuxuan both exclaimed in surprise.

"Could it be that this seal is a living thing?" You looked at the dark red Energy Mastery Shield with some astonishment, noticing upon closer inspection that it seemed to have blood vessel-like structures on it, with dark red Energy Flow moving through the translucent vessels, looking incredibly eerie.

"Demon?" Qin Yuxuan seemed to hardly believe what she was seeing and couldn’t help but cry out.

"Is this thing very dangerous?" You could hear a hint of panic in Qin Yuxuan’s voice.
