A few months later.

Outside the central city of the East China Sea.

A large crowd of people gathered, and they looked out to sea.

Empress Snow came out of the sea, and her mouth seemed to be chanting a spell, as if she were speaking something to the black sea.

In an instant, the sea became pure, and even the water that came ashore was very sweet and delicious.

Xiao Chen stood on a high place, overlooking all this, he was shocked in his heart, he didn't expect Empress Aoxue to have such power.

The black sea instantly became as blue as the sky, no, it was the color of light.

Empress Aoxue prayed in the sea: "Sons of the East China Sea, you will never be plagued by the diseases of this sea again today, and all that remains is endless vitality!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the entire East China Sea boiled, and countless people carnivaled.

"Long live the Empress, long live the Empress!"

Then, by embracing each other, the pain of these decades seemed to disappear at this moment.

They burst into tears, and then dispersed in unison.

Empress Aoxue took out a scepter, and she continued, "You can go to two places on the mainland, the extreme north and the south coast.

"But there's one place you can't go, and that's the West Hill ......."

"Remember, it is a mortal hell, on the contrary, it is someone else's paradise, trespassing, you will only be enslaved......"

Of course, the people of the East China Sea don't care about anything Xishan, because they have never heard of it, and they will only obey the Empress.

With the East China Sea being able to communicate with the far north and south coasts alone, these people are already satisfied.

But Xiao Chen is very curious, what kind of scenery will Xishan be? What others say doesn't count, only where you have set foot can you say that you have walked.

"If you want to go somewhere else, you must go to the Execution Hall Registration!"

When Xiao Chen heard the empress's voice, he immediately felt uneasy, isn't this just another way to dump the pot on the executive officer.

"This executive officer is not deserved." These days, Xiao Chen has long had enough, either getting rid of demons or being dumped, or doing some low-level things, or even going to the heavenly list to be a referee.

Hehe, it's ridiculous, it's obviously the top executive.

Xiao Chen couldn't help but snort coldly.

But speaking of the south bank, I don't know what happened to Xuefeng......

Xiao Chen's mind had the appearance of the leader of the Flying Bird Clan, and he couldn't help but want to go back and take a look.

But let's go to the merfolk first.

Xiao Chen stepped on the light clouds and flickered directly to the mermaid settlement.

As soon as Xiao Chen appeared, Xiyue and Lechuan surrounded him.

"Patriarch Xiaochen, are you back?"

Xiao Chen smiled, he choked, he had never forgotten this mermaid clan, the place where they lived had become many times better than before after the two sisters had taken care of them.

Xiao Chen was very moved in his heart, he thought that this mermaid clan could be self-reliant in such a harsh environment, and he also had some ability.

Xiao Chen restrained his emotions, and he said, "Let's go, take me to see your results......"

"Patriarch, you don't know, in the days when you are away, my sister and I miss you very much......"

Lethe immediately covered her sister's mouth, "Little girl, what are you talking about!" I don't want to be a patriarch. ”

Xiao Chen smiled, he found that the clothes Xiyue and Lechuan were wearing today were very plain, so he asked, "What day is today, why are you wearing like this?"

Shigetsu replied unhurriedly, "We heard that the Empress will hold a ceremony, so naturally she should dress like a resident of the East China Sea...... to show his respect for the Empress. ”

Lechuan echoed on the side: "Patriarch, we also heard that you have become the executive officer of the East China Sea, and our mermaid clan is very shocked!" ”

"There is such a very big disparity in strength between our mermaid clan and the outside world, and now that you have become an executive officer, our mermaid clan has risen in the eyes of others!"

Xiao Chen's face was harmonious, and he said slowly: "Executive officer is just a title, and there is nothing noble. ”

"Don't worry, as long as I Xiaochen is here, others won't want to bully the mermaid clan! Even if the empress's cronies are dispatched, I will still knock them down! ”

After a while, the moon came out, and Xiao Chen rested in the clan for a night, but in the middle of the night, he was awakened by a dream.

"Sister, don't go!"

He looked up and saw Shigetsu and Lechuan lying beside him, muttering "Patriarch ......"

When he returned to the East China Sea again, he saw Empress Aoxue alone in front of a tombstone.

Then he asked, "Aoxue, do you have anything on your mind?" ”

Ao Xue heard a familiar voice and immediately fell into Xiao Chen's arms.

"Can you listen to me?"

Aoxue's eyes flashed with tears, and the bright red dress was slowly fading.

Xiao Chen wiped away her tears, "It's hard to say here, right?" ”

This is Empress Aoxue standing up, and she looks at the tombstone with Xiao Chen.

"Executive Xiao, this is my father's tomb, he left me at a young age, but he unexpectedly handed over the entire East China Sea to me."

"Speaking of which, this Donghai was originally managed by one of my sisters, and her daughter Fengluan, I also raised her for her."

Xiao Chen didn't speak, he thought to himself, it turned out that the saint who was holding the yin and yang fish before was the daughter of the empress's sister?

Xiao Chen stood aside, and a cold wind blew, carrying Qiao's cool sea breeze.

He couldn't help but shudder, "This place, it seems that it can't stay for long." ”

Empress Aoxue said again, she thanked Xiao Chen and said, "Thank you for doing so many things on my behalf. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid the East China Sea would fall into the territory of demon beasts. ”

Xiao Chen heard Ao Xue talk about demon beasts, his eyes showed a cold aura, he wanted to say something, but he still held back.

"Empress Aoxue, I want to go to the West Mountain you said, I want to explore the bigger world, and I ask the Empress to step down from my position as an executive officer!"

Ao Xue was startled, she saw Xiao Chen's determined expression, and her breathing became rapid.

Then she sighed and said, "Since you insist on leaving, then it's useless for me to keep it." ”

Xiao Chen looked at the empress's lost expression, and he said to the empress: "Do you remember Ao Qingtian, he is now my apprentice, please let him take my duties, I believe my apprentice will definitely be capable!" ”

Empress Aoxue thought about it for a while, she didn't care so much, since it was recommended by Xiao Chen, she was naturally convinced.

"This is the map to the West Mountain, you can take it, as for the highest power of the executive, Xiao Chen, you can still exercise it......"

"I miss the empress a lot, Xiao Chen is grateful."

"You're leaving now?" Ao Xue couldn't help but persuade.

Xiao Chen looked at Ao Xue's abnormal expression, and he didn't dare to say a word.

Suddenly, a figure crawled out of the surroundings, and Xiao Chen took a step back.

Who?

A large snake crawled out of the ground.

"I've been grinding and chirping for a long time, Xiao Chen, follow the teacher."

Xiao Chen's pupils focused, he didn't expect it to be his master!

When Ao Xue saw Xiao Chen's master, her face immediately changed.

"I didn't expect Xiao Chen's master to be so mysterious!"

Master Snake didn't say a word, and directly pulled Xiao Chen out.

"You kid, you don't catch demons, but you enjoy happiness in the East China Sea!"

"Master, aren't you here too!"

"Tell me how much jewel you've gained! Give it to the teacher a little ......"

Xiao Chen looked at the master in front of him, he smiled, I'm afraid that if the master doesn't have any jewelry, he will take it from me again.

"Master, it's not much, it's just a little bit."

Master Orochi looked at Xiao Chen's triumphant expression, and he immediately realized it.

"It is worthy of being my good apprentice, your talent is best understood as a teacher!"

Xiao Chen didn't speak, but took out three purple pearls and jade from the storage ring and slowly put them into the master's hands.

"Master, I'm going to go to Xishan, these three purple pearls, you'd better not use them indiscriminately, otherwise, if you are targeted by demon beasts, it will be a catastrophe!"

"Master, no matter how you use these jewels, you'd better leave 100 million points for my senior sister!"

Master Orochi smiled: "That's a must, you are all apprentices of the master, I will definitely reward and punish clearly......"

As he spoke, he had a happy expression on his face and patted Xiao Chen's shoulder.

However, when he heard Xiao Chen say that he was going to Xishan, his face sank.

The three purple pearls in his hand immediately fell to the ground, and his hands were trembling......

"Bang!"

Fortunately, the purple pearl jade was not broken.

Xiao Chen looked at the hard purple pearl jade on the ground, and he muttered, "I didn't expect this jewelry to be so hard, I'm afraid it's not naturally formed, right?"

Master Orochi said solemnly: "Of course, these jewels are related to the West Mountain you are talking about. ”

Xiao Chen looked at the master's serious expression, he picked up the purple pearl jade and slowly put it into the master's pocket.

"May I hear the auspicious ......"

Master Orochi turned around and left, "That place is very rich in resources, and originally every human being over there has the opportunity to be gifted and have amazing bones. ”

"However, this seems normal, everyone has a chance to get through, and they also have their own path - the road to the sky."

Xiao Chen was puzzled, "Master, what is the path to the sky?"

"To put it simply, it's just to become an immortal and be superior to others......"

"Oh? Wouldn't that help keep up with many humans? Xiao Chen was happy in his heart.

"You're thinking too much, apprentice!"

"Master, why do you say that?"

Master Orochi shook his head, his tail swaying from side to side, his expression was very stiff, and he walked to an open place.

After making sure that there was no one, he said: "Apprentice, if you insist on going to Xishan, please bring your senior sister, her relatives, I guess it's over there." ”

"Senior sister's relatives?"

"Yes, before I picked up Mo Qianxue outside, it was a person from Xishan who chased and killed her."

"Master, okay, I'll take Senior Sister Mo Qianxue with me! Master, you are so powerful, do you want to go with me? ”

"I'm going to stay in the East China Sea for a while, my companions died here before, I'm going to pay tribute to them......"

"Take advantage of the clear waters of the East China Sea to pay tribute to the souls under the bottom of the East China Sea."

In the middle of the rest, Xiao Chen came to the border of the East China Sea, he looked at the endless quicksand, and confirmed the direction of the map in his heart......

See you in Nishiyama......
