Li Huowang gently touched the head of the steamed bun and looked in the direction the little girl had left through the translucent black veil, feeling a hint of envy in his heart.
If only he could go back to a time when he knew nothing, how good would that be?
Just as he was thinking this, there was a sudden dull sound of impact, and the cabin quickly tilted to the left. The people who were fighting in the distance instantly huddled together, turning into a rolling gourd.
Li Huowang, who had drawn his sword and stabbed it into the ground, reached out and grabbed the tail of the steamed bun.
"With such big waves, will the carriage in the lower deck be okay?"
Thinking about the consequences of Black Tai Sui breaking free from its restraints in the cabin, Li Huowang couldn't help but feel nervous. He couldn't wait for the ship to stabilize, so he stumbled towards the stern.
When he saw that the carriage he had nailed down had no abnormalities and the blindfolded horse next to it was quietly chewing on horse feed, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After carefully inspecting the carriage's footing, Li Huowang relaxed and turned back.
However, when Li Huowang returned to the cabin, he was shocked to find that all the people who were there just now had disappeared, and long leaves were scattered all over the floor.
"Bang!" There was another dull sound, and the entire cabin tilted violently again.
"What's going on?" Li Huowang felt that something was wrong, furrowing his brows and gripping the hilt of his sword as he quickly rushed towards the deck.
As soon as he stepped out of the cabin, he was immediately hit by pouring rain. The people on the ship hadn't disappeared, they were gathered on the deck, listening to the ship's captain who was excitedly jumping up and down.
"Get the hell out of here! Who the hell reported a false name with smoke! Do you know that because of you, all of us on this ship will be fish food!"
"Bang!" The ship tilted again, causing everyone on board to panic and shout.
At this moment, Li Huowang also noticed something strange. Although it was pouring rain, there were no waves around. It was as if the tilt of the ship was caused by something colliding with it.
Li Huowang quickly walked to the side of the ship and leaned over to look at the water. Perhaps due to the dark clouds in the sky at this moment, the previously deep blue sea had completely turned into a strange dark green color.
"Bang~" The ship shook violently again, and Li Huowang saw a blurry black figure flash underwater. Strands of black hair swayed underwater and rose to the surface.
"There really is something in the water." Thinking of the similar thing that was in the river before, Li Huowang's mood became extremely bad.
Nothing had happened all the way, and chaos broke out again when they were about to arrive.
Just as Li Huowang was thinking about what to do, he heard a knocking sound behind him.
The ship's captain, with blood flowing from his forehead, had already taken out a shiny long knife from his waist and shouted in a desperate voice, "Who the hell is it! Who reported a false name! If you don't come out, I'll kill all of you!"
The ship's captain's appearance obviously frightened everyone. The man with a bandage on his forehead quickly pointed to the pale-faced woman beside him.
"It's her! I heard her call her daughter by her nickname! Her daughter's surname is Chen!"
The ship's captain, as if finding a lifesaver, quickly rushed over and reached out to grab the little girl tightly held in her arms. That little girl was the girl who had given Li Huowang the candy earlier.
"Good! A surname Chen dares to board the ship! You're saying that Dragon King shouldn't have come up!?"
"What are you going to do!! Let go of my daughter!!"
"What am I going to do! Dragon King has come to us, what do you think I'm going to do! Let go!"
The screams, screams, and the crying of the little girl converged in the pouring rain.

"Bang!" The ship's hull was once again hit and lifted high. At this moment, everyone else panicked and kept persuading the woman to let go.
Watching the chaos in front of him, Li Huowang was about to speak when he heard a low shout from beside him. "Are you still human if you want to feed a child to that evil creature in the water?"
"Hmm?" Li Huowang looked up and found that the person speaking was one of the people who had played cards earlier, the one with a stubble beard and a bald head, who was also the best at playing cards.
Seeing someone stepping forward, Li Huowang stopped and prepared to watch the situation. If someone could take action and resolve the situation, he would be happy to stay out of it.
The ship's captain wiped the rainwater off his face with his hand and shouted loudly at the man, "It's easy for you to say. Dragon King is in the water! My ship can't withstand a few more hits. If the ship sinks, we'll all die!"
"Throw this child into the water, do you think the thing in the water will leave?"
"Of course! This Dragon King only eats people surnamed Chen and surnamed Fan! As long as it eats her, we can survive!"
"Ignorant and foolish! Get out of my way!" The bearded man pushed the ship's captain aside and walked to the bow of the ship, starting to make hand gestures towards the ink-black sea as if reciting something.
Although he looked very ordinary, it seemed that he had some skills.
Li Huowang thought for a moment and walked over, asking him somewhat uneasily, "Are you sure about this?"
"If I'm not sure, should we just give up? As men, how can we cower in the back and watch a little girl die for us?"Li Huowang glanced back at the little girl lying in his mother's arms and nodded involuntarily. "Well said, well said."
The bearded man looked at Li Huowang's peculiar attire with confusion, "Who are you, sir? Which sect do you belong to?"
Before Li Huowang could answer, the boat lurched upwards again, and from beneath the hull, a terrifying creaking sound echoed.
The boat captain's anxious voice rang out again, "The boat can't hold on much longer! Whatever you're going to do, do it now!"
Li Huowang removed his bamboo hat, stood up on the edge of the boat, and looked down at the increasing amount of black hair on the water's surface. "No matter what's down there, if we work together, we might stand a chance."
The bearded man looked at Li Huowang's skinless head with a serious expression and slowly nodded.
"The beast is coming! Get ready!" Li Huowang drew his copper coin sword and crouched slightly.
The bearded man, not caring about anything else, pulled out a string of Buddhist beads and wrapped them around his fingers.
As the shadow in the dark green sea water surged again, Li Huowang pushed off with both feet, leaping directly towards the water.
Before Li Huowang could hit the water, the black hair on the surface seemed to come alive, quickly wrapping around him.
"Om Tare Tutare Ture Soha!"
The greenish copper coins quickly separated, and with a flash of cold light, the black hair was instantly cut into several sections, no longer moving.
Li Huowang took a deep breath, and with a "plop", he plunged into the bone-chilling sea water.
When the salty sea water soaked Li Huowang's skinless body, it felt like he was being fried in oil, causing his body to tremble violently.
