  Gu Mengmeng wanted to tell him that there was no need for his services in such a place. She had the Kiss of the Beast Deity to protect her and was completely unaffected in these waters. It wouldn’t be a problem even if Wabei was not around.

  Nevertheless, Gu Mengmeng knew that males had their pride and dignity. Sometimes, they would regard certain things as even more important than life itself.

  She didn’t put up much objection as any further hesitation and delay in this place would just cause more pain and suffering to Wabei.

  Nodding, Gu Mengmeng said, “Immediately head back if you can’t bear it. I will not blame you. Snake will also not blame you. On the contrary, if anything happens to you, I am the one who will be answerable to Snake.”


  Wabei tucked Gu Mengmeng under his armpit and charged into the abyss in his half-beast form. His speed was at the maximum and he obviously wished to complete this mission as quickly as possible.

  His tightly knitted brows and exceptionally solemn expression proved that he was not in a good state. Nevertheless, he gritted his teeth. “I don’t need you to answer for my life!”


  Within the dense poisonous fog in the deep ocean, there was nothing apart from the water current.

  Wabei’s speed was too fast until all Gu Mengmeng could feel was the poisonous fog whizzing past her ears. Her body was descending quickly, but how long can they sustain this speed? How deep and how far? Gu Mengmeng was totally unable to estimate that.

  Only when Wabei finally halted did Gu Mengmeng see that the scales on his tail had been eroded by the poison, until the flesh beneath was exposed. There were also festering patches on his chest. They were not life threatening, but still looked terrible.

  “Pfft.” Wabei spat out a glob of saliva, which was mixed with blood. He wiped his mouth and smiled arrogantly. “Fighting me with poison? In my lifetime, only Snake is more poisonous than me.”


  Gu Mengmeng was reaching out to support him but seeing that he was trying to put on a brave front, she drew back her hand.

  Sometimes, one must know when to hide one’s pity to preserve a man’s pride and dignity.

  Gu Mengmeng smiled and carefully patted Wabei on one of his uninjured spots. “Alright, I thought you would never make it so deep down.”


  “Chey, the only person in this world who can kill me has already been exterminated by you,” Wabei said moodily before starting to survey his surroundings.

  The poisonous fog hung above their heads like a heavy storm cloud. But the area beneath the cloud was clean beyond belief.

  Gu Mengmeng purposely swallowed a mouthful of seawater, only to find that it was not salty.

  In other words, beneath the poisonous fog was not seawater but freshwater. Not only that, it was of a mineral-water type of quality.

  It was very strange. Gu Mengmeng didn’t know what kind of geography would result in such a phenomenon. Could it be related to the poisonous fog?

  Regardless, Gu Mengmeng didn’t hold much interest in underwater geography. She just started walking along a pathway along the seabed.

  It was also strange that there was no current flow down here at all.

  Equally bizarre was the appearance of that little pathway, which looked just like a forest trail and contrasted clearly with the rest of the muddy seabed. As if it had been placed there specially to direct her movements.

  After a short while, Gu Mengmeng felt something was not right. She was sinking deeper and deeper into the floor, and found it increasingly difficult to draw out her feet.

  A deep sea swamp?

  Gu Mengmeng frowned and wanted to swim across instead.

  After trying for a while, she was astonished to discover that she was unable to float? She was totally unable to swim, and could only walk.
