Chapter 358: Devil’s Bay (16)_1
"The assessment is very simple, you just need to ride this group of devil soul great white sharks, enter a sea area, obtain a kind of purple immortal clover in the center of the sea area, and then ensure that every member comes out safely!" Poseissi replied, "Moreover, aside from the participants and the chosen devil soul great white sharks, you cannot rely on the power of anyone else, otherwise, the assessment will be deemed a failure!"
"So, this sea area isn’t simple, is it?"
Xiaowu said with a slight smile.
"Of course!" Poseissi nodded, "But as for what kind of sea area it is, you’ll know once you go there!"
"Alright, we’ve been on the island for a while now, and it could be good to go out to sea and have some fun!" Chu Qin stretched lazily, leading the girls to the seaside.
"Lord Chu Qin, that sea area must be very dangerous, as the successor of the Sea God, allow me to carry you on this journey!"
At this time, the King of the devil soul great white sharks, Bai Yingying, took the initiative to swim up to Chu Qin and said.
"Mom, let me do it!"
Before Chu Qin could respond, Bai Xiuxiu said from the side.
"Xiuxiu..." Bai Yingying said in a slight surprise, "That sea area is very dangerous; you shouldn’t go!"
"No, I want to go!" Bai Xiuxiu replied, "Precisely because it’s dangerous, Xiuxiu wants to go even more! Xiuxiu has grown up and shouldn’t always stay in a greenhouse!"
"That still won’t do, Xiuxiu!" Bai Yingying replied, "That sea area is really too dangerous, otherwise it wouldn’t be chosen as the site for Lord Chu Qin’s seventh assessment!"
"No, either way I want to go, I am a devil soul great white shark too, and I am also the mount of Sea God!" Bai Xiuxiu insisted.
"You really leave me no choice, then please let Lord Chu Qin decide!" Bai Yingying sighed.
"Let Xiuxiu come with me!" Chu Qin said with a slight smile. After all, the System had instructed him to take Bai Xiuxiu with him, and since she was willing, Chu Qin would certainly fulfill her wish!
"Yay! Long live Lord Chu Qin!" Hearing Chu Qin’s words, Bai Xiuxiu excitedly leaped out of the sea.
"Lord Chu Qin, hurry up and ride on me!" Bai Xiuxiu followed up.
Chu Qin smiled faintly, leaped gracefully onto Bai Xiuxiu’s back, and sat down cross-legged with suave confidence!
"Well then!" Bai Yingying said, "Lord Chu Qin, I’ll follow you too, I’ll lead the way for you!"
Bai Yingying had once been the mount of the Sea God, and aside from the Sea God himself and Chu Qin, not even Poseissi had the right to ride her!
Therefore, she chose to lead the way alone while Xiaowu, Zhu Zhuqing and the others, one by one, jumped onto the back of a devil soul great white shark!
Just then, Wang Qiu’er shouted, "Brother Chu Qin, catch me!"
Immediately after, before Chu Qin could react, Wang Qiu’er had already jumped up and leapt towards Chu Qin who, going with the flow, caught her in his arms.
"Qiu’er, what are you doing?" Chu Qin asked in slight surprise.
"Hehe, I want to sit on your lap!"
Wang Qiu’er said with a proud smile.
"Alright then!" Chu Qin nodded with a smile. Hearing this, Wang Qiu’er didn’t say another word and plopped down on Chu Qin’s lap, loudly declaring, "Let’s go!"
Following that, the Sea Dragon Douluo and Sea Witch Douluo, acting as guides, led everyone riding on devil soul great white sharks grandly towards the southeast of Sea God Island.
The devil soul great white sharks were immensely fast, reaching 500 nautical miles in an hour. After six hours at sea, an island of black rocks appeared before them!
"Lord Chu Qin, that place over there is Devil’s Bay!" Sea Dragon Douluo pointed at the rocky island up ahead and said.
"Devil’s Bay?" Chu Qin raised his eyebrows slightly. He had originally thought they were heading to the Demon Whale Sea Area.
But then again, the Deepsea Devil Whale King should be the ninth assessment!
"Lord Chu Qin, Devil’s Bay is no ordinary sea area!" Sea Dragon Douluo continued, "This place is known as one of the most dangerous areas in the coastal region, second only to the Demon Whale Sea Area! Not only are there turbulent undercurrents, but most importantly, the use of spiritual detection is impossible within, one has to rely on instinct to navigate! This sea area is also filled with various powerful sea soul beasts, a place that terrifies countless sea soul masters! What you have to do is to endure for one day inside Devil’s Bay and then successfully make your way out!"
"Sounds quite thrilling!" Wang Qiu’er said with an elegant smile.
"Uh, Sister Qiu’er, let me tell you, the depths of Devil’s Bay are home to numerous sea soul beasts that possess deadly poisons and can create illusions!" Sea Dragon Douluo warned, "But that’s the least of our worries. Recently, there have been some unusual occurrences within Devil’s Bay, and only the Great Worship knows what they are!"
"We’re not afraid. With Chu Qin here, I fear nothing!" Wang Qiu’er said confidently while hugging Chu Qin.
Hearing this, Sea Witch Douluo felt a tinge of envy but still responded, "Lord Chu Qin, if you’re ready, you may enter now!"
"Do we need to prepare anything else?" Chu Qin asked with an indifferent smile, "Little White, lead the way!"
"Yes!" Bai Yingying, upon hearing the command, let out a shark cry and dived straight into Devil’s Bay!
"Xiaowu, Qing’er, Ning Rongrong, Yanyan, Huo Wu, Bing’er, Nana, Er Long, Ya Qing, Zhenzhu, Jin’er, A Yu, stay within three meters of me!" Chu Qin instructed the girls.
"Okay!" The girls responded in unison.
Then, everyone rode the Devil Soul Great White Sharks, following Chu Qin as they rushed into Devil’s Bay.
"Sea Dragon, what kind of unusual occurrences has there been in Devil’s Bay lately?" Sea Witch Douluo asked out of curiosity, turning to Sea Dragon Douluo.
"I told you, only the Great Worship knows!" Sea Dragon Douluo replied.
"Come on, you can’t fool me! The Great Worship must have told you!" Sea Witch Douluo insisted.
"Alright! The Great Worship suspects that the Titled Douluo, who used the Evil-eyed Orca King to poison us some time ago, has hidden himself inside Devil’s Bay, and moreover, the local tyrant, the Deepsea Devil Whale King, has also been spotted within!" Sea Dragon Douluo revealed.
"The Deepsea Devil Whale King!" Sea Witch Douluo exclaimed with a shocked look and concern, "Then isn’t Lord Chu Qin and the others in danger?"
"The Deepsea Devil Whale King usually stays in its Devil Whale Domain, and even if it came to Devil’s Bay, its lazy nature means it would just open its mouth and wait for food to come. It would hardly attack Lord Chu Qin and the others proactively. Besides, Lord Chu Qin defeated even the Great Worship, what is there to fear!" Sea Dragon Douluo retorted.
"But we should still warn Lord Chu Qin!" Sea Witch Douluo furrowed her brows, "Lord Chu Qin may be powerful, but he has to protect so many people!"
"Sea Witch, you know these are the rules set by the Sea God, I cannot change them!" Sea Dragon Douluo responded.
"However, Sea Witch, I noticed you seem particularly concerned about Lord Chu Qin. Could it be that you have feelings for him?" Sea Dragon Douluo added with a smile.
Suddenly, Sea Witch Douluo’s face flushed red, and she stammered in denial, "Nonsense! Lord Chu Qin is the inheritor of the Sea God, the one we worship. It’s perfectly normal for me to care about him, isn’t it!"
"Then why are you blushing?" Sea Dragon Douluo pressed.
"I’m not!" Sea Witch Douluo hastily covered her face and turned away.
"Hahaha!" Sea Dragon Douluo laughed loudly, "Actually, Lord Chu Qin is truly exceptional; it’s very normal for girls to be attracted to him! And not just you, when I see Lord Chu Qin holding the golden trident, I feel a little stirred myself!"
"Ah!" Sea Witch Douluo looked startled.
"Just kidding!" Sea Dragon Douluo said laughingly, "Brother me has very normal values! I have only respect for Lord Chu Qin, no romantic feelings!"
Meanwhile!
Chu Qin led the girls deeper into Devil’s Bay.
The place was nothing like the gloomy, eerie sea area he had imagined.
Instead, it was still sunny, with glittering waves, and the scenery was overwhelmingly beautiful!
"Is this Devil’s Bay? I don’t feel any danger at all!" Ning Rongrong said with a hint of confusion.
"Rongrong, the more it seems this way, the less we can afford to be careless!" Liu Erlong said, "Since this is the final part of the top-level seventh test, there must be a reason for it!"
"Right, Er Long is correct. Rongrong, don’t be fooled by appearances!" Chu Qin said, nodding while holding Wang Qiu’er.
"Uh... Lord Chu Qin, you’re being too cautious!" Bai Yingying spoke up, "This place is not yet Devil’s Bay; Devil’s Bay is another five miles ahead!"
Chu Qin: "..."
Liu Erlong: "..."
"However, this area is close to Devil’s Bay, and it’s not guaranteed that sea soul beasts from within won’t swim out!" Bai Yingying added, "Of course, if any sea soul beasts do swim out, there are only a few, and with me here, even if they do come out, they won’t attack us!"
