430: Chapter 430: The Lost Civilization 430: Chapter 430: The Lost Civilization The lady in white veil carried an innate air of lancholy that sparked pity in others.
Indeed, she was Ji Qian, and the woman guard by her side was her trusted confidante, Selena.
“There’s no need.
You don’t have to notify him, nor does he need to know about these matters.” Ji Qian spoke indifferently.
The reopening of the Atlantis relic had set off a huge commotion in the Underworld, with parties engaged in a cutthroat struggle, both openly and in secret, each trying to be the first to seize this “piece of fat.” According to the information from the Moon God Temple, Ji Qian and her group were definitely not the first to arrive here, and the situation below remained uncertain.
“The relic is extrely dangerous, if by so accident…”
“It’s precisely because of the dangers within that I can’t involve him.” Ji Qian coldly interjected before Selena could finish.
Ye Shikai didn’t want the woman he loved to get hurt, and Ji Qian felt the sa way.
She understood Ye Shikai all too well.
The man always took on danger and responsibility willingly, never speaking of the pain and injuries he bore, like a Wild Wolf who licks his wounds alone after a battle.
Atlantis, the ancient mysterious country of legend, was said to possess highly advanced technology and civilization—a place both beautiful and enigmatic.
Yet, it t its demise in a global disaster ten thousand years ago, subrged by a prehistoric flood…
Subsequently, volcanic ash enshrouded the area, and over the millennia, Atlantis slowly turned into a mysterious legend.
Countless explorers seeking to unravel its secrets returned empty-handed.
Thus, the expedition to the relics of Atlantis was laden with unknown dangers.
Ancient records ntioned many treasures, dicines, and artifacts within, but the most precious were the legendary essences of the four elents, deed the greatest treasures of Atlantis.
The group arrived at the beach, staring at the unfathomable ocean.
Legend had it that Atlantis perished in a flood, and with subsequent earthquakes and tectonic shifts, the once-flourishing continent had sunk to the ocean floor, transforming into a “city beneath the sea.”
“Lord Moon God, the submarine is ready.
Shall we depart now?”
“Let’s go.” Ji Qian said softly, as everyone entered the submarine.
“Current depth: one thousand ters.”
“Current depth: two thousand ters.”
“Depth: three thousand ters.”
Ji Qian watched the submarine’s depth gauge intently.
Due to the incessant descent, the submarine was subjected to colossal water pressure.
When the depth reached four thousand ters, the submarine began to tremble and emitted a hissing noise.
If it were ordinary people, their hearts would be in their throats by now.
The confined space and the deep-sea depths would paralyze soone with claustrophobia or thalassophobia.
But those present were Ji Qian’s close guards, who wouldn’t panic even in dangerous situations, especially with Ji Qian herself present.
“Lord Moon God, the submarine’s descent is nearing its limit.
Continuing downwards could be dangerous.”
“Keep descending.
I’ll stabilize the vessel.” Ji Qian commanded calmly, waving her magic wand gently.
Several silver-white beams of light radiated, enveloping the submarine, wrapping the entire vessel like a net.
She was using energy to protect the vessel.
Indeed, the violent trembling stopped at once, and the hissing noises disappeared, leaving only the sound of everyone’s breathing and their slightly quickened heartbeats.
The submarine continued to dive deeper.
Ji Qian looked through the glass at the ocean floor, where the silhouette of a city began to faintly erge in the darkness…
Yanjing.
“Hey, Ghost, answer now.” Ye Shikai called urgently on the phone.
“Boss, what’s the matter, you sound so panicked.” Over the phone, Ghost’s slightly complaining voice ca through.
“I’m asking you, where has Ji Qian gone?
Isn’t she supposed to be at the Moon God Temple?
How co I can’t get in touch with her?” Ye Shikai got straight to the point.
“Lord Moon God, well, she left with Selena and the others not too long ago.
As for the destination, it’s a secret; even I don’t know,” Ghost said sowhat awkwardly.
“What.” Ye Shikai was shocked, his heart leapt to his throat.
Disappearing without a word and keeping her whereabouts a secret ant, given his understanding of Ji Qian, it must be a big deal.
“You send soone to find Ji Qian for imdiately, everyone go, and if you can’t find her, don’t bother contacting again.” Ye Shikai shouted angrily and hung up the phone.
Why would Ji Qian play disappearing acts at this ti?
“Ailina, have there been any stirrings in the Underworld lately?” After hanging up with Ghost, Ye Shikai imdiately called Ailina’s mobile phone.
“Well…
I’ve been in Yanjing for this long, I don’t know about these things,” Ailina was hesitant and seed to be hiding sothing, which Ye Shikai, though urgent, still keenly sensed.
“Are you trying to deceive ?
Has Moon God Ji Qian contacted you recently?” Ye Shikai pressed her.
“This…
no, my relationship with her isn’t that good, as you know.”
“If you don’t talk, I’ll go ask Jeddon,” Ye Shikai threatened coldly.
He wasn’t in the mood to solve riddles now; Ji Qian’s disappearance was a matter of life and death.
“Don’t don’t, I’ll tell you the truth,” Ailina couldn’t resist Ye Shikai after all and had to spill the beans.
…………….
“What, the ruins of Atlantis, has Ji Qian lost her mind?” Ye Shikai exclaid after hearing the news.
Atlantis, located at the bottom of the sea, has always been a forbidden place, even the Sea God Poseidon had dared not venture there before.
Even if the ruins had opened, as the Main God, Ji Qian didn’t need to muddy the waters.
And if sothing happened underwater, the chances of survival were almost zero.
“Why didn’t you tell earlier?” Ye Shikai yelled, the first ti he had ever yelled at Ailina, and quite fiercely.
“It, it was the Moon God who told not to tell you,” Ailina’s voice was very weak, like a small girl who had made a mistake and was being scolded by an adult.
“Sigh, never mind, I’ve already sent Ghost to scout ahead.
I hope they’re okay.” Ye Shikai sighed.
Now wasn’t the ti to delve into who was right and who was wrong.
Solving the problem was what mattered most.
Ye Shikai was also sowhat negligent about the identity of that mysterious woman.
Although curious, he had no mood for it now that Ji Qian had vanished without a trace.
Suddenly, Ye Shikai’s eyes lit up as he thought of soone who could help him find Ji Qian.
“Hey, Ye, what brings you to call ?” On the other end of the phone, a man’s voice ca through.
“Hey, Old Wang, where are you at?” Ye Shikai asked urgently.
“Africa, War God Temple.
I’m not at the Main God Temple enjoying myself, where else could I be?”
