Speaking of what lies ahead, the island truly has sunny skies and a vibrant spring.
Leng Yue could hardly wait to give her everything to Xiaofan.
No matter what the future holds, let's live for today and enjoy the happiness.
Now, Xiaofan doesn't make any excuses to refuse anymore. It's fate, and even though he's severely poisoned, until the final outbreak, all his bodily functions remain normal.
"Leng Yue..."
"Hmm?"
"You look so pretty."
"Hmm."
"I..."
Suddenly, Xiaofan experiences a severe dizziness, sitting heavily on the ground without any warning.
"Captain..." Leng Yue is startled, quickly squatting down to check on him.
"I, I feel a bit dizzy..."
"Where? Captain, Captain, don't scare ..."
Xiaofan suddenly loses consciousness like that.
It turns out, this is the first sign of the White Scorpion's venom making progress.
Just like when Shen Zuimo inexplicably fainted back in the Yanhuang Soul, the doctors confird that when the active virus in the body gradually reaches a certain level, it would have an initial effect on a person.
Previously, Xiaofan had been in a comatose state; after waking, he remained lying down without much movent, which delayed the first onset by a few days.
However, this dizziness caused by the virus can't be held off by any skill; it can't be suppressed when it hits, not by anyone.
Although seeing Xiaofan suddenly collapse made Leng Yue very alard, after a surface examination, she quickly guessed it was the virus reacting within Xiaofan's body.
They really can't stay on this island any longer. The sooner they return, the better Xiaofan's chances of survival.
He cannot die just like this, absolutely not...
After narrowly escaping, Xiaofan is once again faced with the pressure of being bound by life.
Before they can properly celebrate surviving the ordeal, the fainting has pulled their worries back to reality.
Are they doing well back ho?
Sitting on a rock, looking at the distant sea, Xiaofan doesn't know which direction leads back to his holand, but now he can only think of his distant lover in this way.
The days passed by just like that... In the distance, there was still an endless ocean. The sky remained strangely blue.
On this side, food is exceptionally abundant. Moreover, in an uninhabited area, starting a fire is no trouble at all for Xiaofan and Leng Yue.
Even though the sea floods the island periodically, after each inundation, the small pits on the island retain pools of seawater, often filled with small fish and shrimps, and sotis there's even a big catch if they're lucky.
"Captain, quick, co over here..."
"What is it?"
"Quick, look, catch it, catch it..."
"Oh wow, that's a big crab."
Running to the pit, Xiaofan sees Leng Yue struggling to chase a big crab. The mud surrounding the pit makes it difficult to walk.
The crab seems to sense the danger and quickly scuttles toward a nearby puddle.
If it reaches the water, there's no catching it for a while. Even with Xiaofan and Leng Yue's martial arts, they're afraid of the crab's huge pincers.
For the sake of delicious food, Xiaofan throws aside the two Golden Carp he just caught and rushes over.
With a flick of his hand, a small stick flies toward the crab.
"Don't pierce its shell. A lot of nutrients are inside the shell."
'Whoosh.'
Due to Leng Yue's shout, Xiaofan's wrist shifts slightly, causing the stick to sink deep into the mud.
As a result, the crab ducks into the puddle.
"Ah, great, now we can't even eat the broken shell," Xiaofan says helplessly.
"I refuse to believe it'll hide in the water forever," Leng Yue says angrily, having obviously chased the crab for a long ti.
"Unlikely. Crabs tend to hide in the soil when sensing danger, and now that it's in water, it's hard to reach. I'm afraid we can't eat this big crab."
"I want to eat."
"Hmm?"
Leng Yue, full of determination, finds a long stick, walks over, and stirs the water with it.
"Need help?" Xiaofan asks with a grin.
"No, whoever catches it eats it. If I catch it, I won't share with you."
"Ah? That's not fair, I want a turn too."
Hearing Leng Yue say she won't share the big crab, Xiaofan quickly grabs a stick and begins stirring in the water.
'Whoosh.'
Before long, a fish flies out of the water, only to imdiately drop back into the puddle.
Indeed, this place is teeming with seafood.
If they could find a way to drain the puddle, all the seafood inside could be caught. However, without any tools on this deserted island, the two can only rely on primitive thods.
'Splash.'
As the fish splashes back into the water, Xiaofan swiftly strikes the water with a stick.
Imdiately, the escaping fish flips belly-up, floating to the surface.
"Heh heh, another fish..."
Just as Xiaofan laughs while fetching the fish, Leng Yue looks over with a face full of resentnt.
Noticing the strange gaze, Xiaofan looks over.
"Hahahahaha..." then bursts into laughter.
It turns out, the splashing water from his hit drenched Leng Yue, making her already dirty clothes even ssier.
"You're still laughing."
Leng Yue pouts playfully, striking the puddle with her stick, splashing water onto Xiaofan as well.
"Leng Yue, you... fine, let's see who's better."
The two are playfully sparring, splashing the dirty water onto each other, leaving them in a muddy ss.
Yet, neither of them cares about the ss, laughter echoing as they play. Especially when mud splashes into Xiaofan's mouth, Leng Yue laughs the loudest.
On this isolated island, since they can't return, they decide to cast aside all worries and live a simple, joyful life.
"Ah, the crab, the crab is out, catch it..."
