Zhang Yifeng frowned slightly, standing at the bow of the airship and looking into the distance. He vaguely saw a strange scene a thousand meters away.
A large group of weird sea beasts seemed to be besieging something.
However, because the distance is too far, it is already the limit of what Zhang Yifeng can see at the bottom of the North Sea.
"Senior, have you discovered anything?"
Lei Ao stood beside Zhang Yifeng and asked in a low voice.
Although he did not have the same vision as Zhang Yifeng, he could already guess what was happening ahead just by hearing what he said.
"There is a group of sea beasts that seem to be besieging something a thousand meters ahead."
Zhang Yifeng relayed what he saw to Lei Ao.
As a monk born and raised in Beihai City, he might know what these sea beasts are doing.
"This Beihai has always been a restricted area for monks. Unless necessary, no one else can enter rashly."
"but……"
Lei Ao suddenly pursed his lips, and a light flashed in his eyes.
Originally, it was indeed impossible for anyone to enter the deep sea area of the North Sea, but he suddenly remembered the story about Sihaizhou that his parents had told him.
"Just tell me what you have to say."
Zhang Yifeng saw that he seemed a little embarrassed to speak, so he said softly.
"Okay, I'm not afraid of seniors' jokes. In fact, my father told me a story when I was young."
"It is said that these four sea states are more than what they seem on the surface. There are also creatures called sea tribes lurking in the four vast oceans."
"These sea tribes live in the depths of the sea and rarely appear above the surface."
"But this is just a story my father told me. Seniors don't need to take it seriously."
Lei Ao hesitated to tell this story.
After all, it is just a story I heard when I was a child, and it cannot be taken seriously.
However, after Zhang Yifeng heard this, his face showed a thoughtful look.
"As the guardians of the imperial treasury key and road map, the Lei family must make sense in every word and deed."
"Maybe in your eyes, Lei Ao, this is just a story your father told casually."
"But in fact, it's very likely that this was his intention to tell you the secrets of Sihaizhou in this storytelling tone."
"After all, according to the original trajectory, you should become the next head of the Lei family. It is normal for you to accept this information subtly."
Zhang Yifeng said in a deep voice, a light of wisdom flashed in his eyes.
Now he can be sure that the existence of this sea clan is most likely real.
The head of the Lei family will definitely shoulder the responsibility of guarding the treasure key and the road map. Lei Ao's father was probably worried that he would not be able to keep these secrets safely, so he just informed him of some detailed information.
"I see... No wonder my father often took me out to sea when I was young, and he always told me some weird stories."
Upon hearing this, Lei Ao couldn't help but clenched his fists, his nails digging deeply into his palms.
The ordinary memories in the past are now recalled with a trace of longing that is difficult to let go.
"Don't wallow in pain, you still have a long way to go in the future."
"I have already sent everyone from the Lei family into reincarnation. If you are worried, just practice hard after everything is over."
"Sooner or later, you will meet them again in this world."
Zhang Yifeng took a deep look at Lei Ao and opened his mouth to point out the demonic nature rising in his heart at this moment.
"Senior, you actually..."
As soon as these words came out, Lei Ao suddenly regained his clarity as if he had been struck by lightning.
He looked up at Zhang Yifeng in disbelief, never expecting that this senior would be willing to send everyone in the Lei family who died tragically to reincarnation again.
Zhang Yifeng nodded to him with an indifferent expression, then raised his eyes to look at the group of sea beasts that were getting closer and closer.
After getting closer, Zhang Yifeng could clearly see what the sea beasts were attacking.
I saw an orange-yellow barrier in the center of the deep sea, and more than a dozen sea beasts were surrounding this barrier and constantly attacking.
Inside the barrier were two people, an old man and a young man.
The old man's beard and hair are all white, he is hunched over and has his hands spread out in an effort to keep the energy of the barrier from dissipating.
Behind him, there was a blue-haired girl who looked quite energetic. She was hiding behind the old man, timidly looking at the surrounding sea monsters that were besieging the barrier.
At first glance, the appearance of the old man and the young man was no different from that of ordinary human monks.
"Is this the Sea Clan? Or is it just a monk who accidentally stepped into this place and was besieged?"
Zhang Yifeng had doubts in his heart, but he still drove the flying boat towards them quickly.
Even at the bottom of the sea, the airship gifted to Zhang Yifeng by Wushuang Scholar can still burst out with extremely strong power.
Even with the blessing of mana, the speed is exactly the same as galloping in the sky.
But in the deep sea, traveling at this speed will make a lot of noise.
Zhang Yifeng drove the flying boat just a little closer, and immediately attracted the attention of the dozen or so sea beasts.
They slowly turned around, their dark red eyes the size of lanterns staring intently at the approaching flying boat.
Then a low roar was heard, and more than a dozen sea beasts immediately separated and rushed towards the flying boat.
Judging from the intentions of these sea beasts, it was clear that they wanted to keep Zhang Yifeng and the old and the young for lunch.
Several sea beasts came towards the flying boat, obviously preparing to use their huge bodies to directly crash the flying boat.
"Human race? Why do they appear in the North Sea?"
At this moment, an old man and a young man in the barrier also noticed Zhang Yifeng, who was rushing towards them in a flying boat.
When the old man with white beard and hair saw this, instead of being surprised, he frowned.
"Princess, please be careful. These human beings are acting strangely. Don't let them know your identity."
The old man thought for a moment and then hurriedly said to the girl next to him.
"Okay, okay Grandpa Hai, it's Xuan'er who's dragging you down."
The girl called the princess lowered her head and said with regret on her face.
If she hadn't suddenly wanted to go to the sea to have a look, Grandpa Hai and her would not have been besieged by these sea beasts.
Let alone encounter these terrifying human monks.
"Don't worry, princess, I have already notified the patrolling generals nearby, and they will come to support you soon."
Hai Wen replied calmly, but the anxious look in his eyes was visible to the naked eye.
Although he notified the patrolling general in time, this place was at least tens of thousands of miles away from the Neptune Palace.
Even if the patrolling general arrives as soon as possible, it may take a long time.
And his magic power was already stretched thin under the crazy siege of sea beasts.
At this time, cracks have appeared on the shield, and I am afraid it will shatter on the spot soon.
"No matter what, we must protect Her Highness the Princess!"
Hai Wen gritted his teeth and prepared for the worst in his heart.
"Why on earth did these human races suddenly come to Beihai? Could it be..."
Hai Wen's eyes turned and landed on the flying boat not far away that was about to collide with the sea beast head-on. A cautious look flashed in his eyes.
