·The waters ahead ripple, with clear skies.
Everyone gazed at the surroundings, amazed that it had transford from raging fierce waves to endless clear skies, filled with the sounds of birds and the fragrance of flowers, as if an oasis lies hidden at the edge of the terrible weather.
"Truly a hidden paradise..."
The crowd marveled, unexpectedly finding such a peaceful domain akin to a utopia within the harsh Far Deep Sea.
If it weren’t for the guidance of the Sea Race, it’s likely such a world would have gone unnoticed.
"It’s the Heart of the Ocean, and a very pure one at that..."
Rude Yue muttered, eyes focused on the sea ahead, with a sparkle in his gaze.
Only an exceptionally pure Heart of the Ocean could suppress the rampant energy amidst such terrible sea conditions.
At this mont, Fang Yu stood on the deck of the ship, eyes towards the territory of the Sea Race.
"Look quickly! The rmaid Race!"
Soone spoke excitedly, and imdiately everyone’s gaze instinctively followed the person’s finger towards the nearby reefs.
There on the reefs rested and played beings with human torsos and fish tails.
Seeing an unfamiliar ship approach the area, these rmaids curiously and cautiously looked at Fang Yu and the others.
Upon realizing that Fang Yu’s ship belonged to the South Island Navy, the rpeople relaxed, smiling and warmly welcoming Fang Yu and his company.
"It’s the South Island Navy, our friends, welco to our territory!"
A female being grown together with a shell peeked out from it, warmly addressing Fang Yu and the others.
"Is the old general’s health improving? He once showed us great kindness, and we wish to repay him."
"Here’s hoping the old general recovers — good deeds bring good returns!"
Another being with arms shaped like pincers and a body encased in a massive thick shell, resembling a cross between human and crab, spoke with a simple smile.
The Seven Great Sea Races, varying in appearance, yet living in harmony in this area.
Listening to the enthusiastic greetings, Fang Yu forced a smile and nodded to the sea folk.
Such peaceful and simple sea beings, so kind-hearted, should they really be dragged into a war...
Fang Yu’s heart was fraught with confusion.
"Ah! I rember you!"
Suddenly, a figure erged from the sea, gazing at Fang Yu with twinkling eyes, speaking cheerfully.
It was a rmaid Girl, her lovely features holding a hint of exotic allure different from humans.
Her long hair subrged, whimsically swaying with the sea, her face glowing with a roguish mix of shyness and liveliness as she watched Fang Yu.
"Hmm? You are..."
Seeing the rmaid Girl, Fang Yu’s eyes lit up.
What a beautiful rmaid girl.
Even the crew around couldn’t help but subtly focus their sights on the rmaid Girl, many blushing with slight embarrassnt.
These n, roughened by years at sea, hadn’t seen such a radiant woman for centuries.
And now they’re all staring blankly at the rmaid.
But the rmaid Girl kept her gaze fixed on Fang Yu, playfully remarked, "I saw you killing the Star Beast King at Qingyue Island before, saving our kin from death!"
"Later, Father feared the Star Beast’s return, so we went back to the main group and ca here."
"Didn’t expect to see you again here!"
The rmaid Girl arched backward, swimming into the water, displaying her graceful curves.
Seemingly in high spirits, she frolicked underwater, resurfacing after a while: "You’re a good person, you chased away the Star Beast for us!"
Listening to her words, Fang Yu paused.
Qingyue Island...
Old mories flooded back.
Back then, it was for a rmaid Race mission, and also for the Radiant Star Stone, he didn’t hesitate to head to Qingyue Island to kill the Star Beast.
At that mont, just the benefits mattered, not thoughts of justice.
Now hearing the rmaid Girl’s words, Fang Yu blushed, coughed lightly and spoke: "Well... I had my reasons for going."
"I know!"
The rmaid Girl laughed, a clear voice echoing from below the ship: "What’s your na? You haven’t asked mine yet!"
Hearing her words, Fang Yu responded loudly: "My na is Fang Yu. Little rmaid, what’s your na?"
"Fang Yu... Fang Yu..."
She murmured his na, then playfully smiled, without revealing her na, slipped back into the sea and disappeared.
Only ripples remained on the calm sea surface.
Fang Yu froze for a mont, finding the rmaid Girl charmingly mischievous.
Just then, Wu Chun’s voice erged: "Guests have arrived, I will arrange for you to stay on the island, and...
Wu Chun paused and spoke in a low voice: "And I ask you, Fang Yu, to consider carefully."
"Thank you, Wu Chun, my brother!"
Fang Yu nodded, sighed slightly.
...
Later, Fang Yu cleared the Water Poison from Wulu, then released Wu Chun and Wulu.
