Chapter 421 Return
The mayor’s calmness was gone. He had suddenly turned crazy, and there was no telling what he was muttering. Han Fei and Xia Xiaochan were confused. They found the mayor dreadful and pitiful at this moment.
As for Mr. Hexagon Starfish, it never dared to open its eyes since it saw the mayor, and it had been acting as if it were a pendant.
Looking at Han Fei and Xia Xiaochan in comfort, the mayor said, “Nature has its own mysteries. My city has been punished for two hundred years for stealing fortunes. So, this is how it will end.”
After that, the mayor withdrew his smile and looked at Han Fei. “Your drop of Chaotic Original Water isn’t as good as hers. However, it’s still a great treasure.”
Han Fei looked around at the destruction that he had caused. He asked, “This is not good enough?”
The mayor grinned and said, “I call your drop of Chaotic Original Water the Infinity Water. It can turn water into weapons. Of course, the weapons can’t be higher than your own levels… This Infinity Water was the Chaotic Original Water that I borrowed power from, but I could never take it.”
After that, the mayor turned to Xia Xiaochan. “Can you release it?” Blinking her eyes, Xia Xiaochan asked, “How do I release it?”
The mayor said, “With your mind, like how you release spiritual weapons.” Xia Xiaochan opened her hands, and a stream of clear water was gathering in her palm.
Staring at it for a long time, the mayor suddenly remarked, “Is it the Metamorphosis Water?” The mayor said, “Try to imagine that it’s you…” Xia Xiaochan was slightly stunned. Then, Han Fei saw that the water was growing large and a.s.suming the shape of a human being on the ground. After only a few seconds, an identical Xia Xiaochan emerged. Han Fei was shocked. Her hairstyle, her clothes, her height, her body figure, and even Mr. Hexagon Starfish that was hanging on her leg had been reflected vividly. That was really hard to believe! The mayor, however, put on a smile. “That explains a lot. No wonder I’ve never been able to borrow its power.”
Suddenly, the mayor gazed at Han Fei and Xia Xiaochan with confusion and relief. In the end, he simply said casually, “The Chaotic Original Water is not as simple as it looks. Maybe you can find it out later, but I won’t be there to witness it.”
Xia Xiaochan was rather startled by herself. What the h.e.l.l? An identical copy of herself? Han Fei asked in shock, “Is the duplication capable of fighting?” The mayor slightly shook his head. “Maybe, if you share some of your spiritual power with it. If my guess is correct, this drop of Chaotic Original Water is known as Metamorphosis Water. It can transform into anything.” Xia Xiaochan asked, “Metamorphosis Water?” The mayor said, “Battle suits, weapons, or living creatures, it can be transformed into anything by you. I didn’t know that it was Metamorphosis Water. And I can’t appreciate the potential it can have…”
Han Fei and Xia Xiaochan were both stunned by what the mayor said. A drop of Infinity Water contained infinite techniques, and a drop of Metamorphosis Water could transform into anything? It did sound amazing Han Fei couldn’t help but ask, “Senior, what techniques does the Infinity Water boast?” The mayor said with a smile, “That’s something that you should find out. However, you are too weak and can only use the fundamental power of the water. You might learn more later.”
Maybe Han Fei was too shortsighted, but he didn’t think that the two drops of water were worth a city. Frowning, Han Fei asked, “Senior, did your city fall because of the two drops of water?” The mayor snorted and asked, “You don’t think they’re worth it?” Before Han Fei replied, the mayor continued, “You don’t know the value of the Chaotic Original Water yet. I would’ve exchanged it even if I had two cities and that were doomed.” Han Fei swallowed. Those were human lives! And the water was just a treasure…
The mayor suddenly looked at Han Fei. “The destruction of my city is inevitable… However, since you have acquired the best treasures of my city, you must promise me something!” As he spoke, arcane runes rose from the mayor’s feet and flooded into Han Fei and Xia Xiaochan crazily. Both of them were greatly shocked. Those black runes did not look like anything good… However, they couldn’t move at all. Their bodies seemed to be frozen. Xia Xiaochan couldn’t flash, either. “Don’t panic. It’s not anything that will control you or contract you. In the future, when the runes emerge from you, remember to rebuild my city above the clouds…”
Han Fei gritted his teeth. “What if we fail?”
The mayor laughed. “You won’t! Or you will be haunted by demons in your heart! Now that I’m giving the Chaotic Original Water to you, you will have to return the favor sooner or later.” “Hum…”
When the mayor waved his hand again, Han Fei and Xia Xiaochan had reappeared on the roof that they had been standing on. However, different from when they left, four looming tides were pus.h.i.+ng at the city from four directions, trying to drown the whole city. Han Fei saw almost ten monolithic shadows in the tides. He didn’t know what they were, but they couldn’t be weaklings considering how huge their shadows were… The mayor raised his head and looked at the sun. “If you two are really chosen by fate, this will probably be your only opportunity to go away…” Han Fei was horrified when faced with the tides that had risen to the sky! It almost felt like the end of the world… Han Fei didn’t know which floating island could possibly resist any of the tides. All of a sudden, the mayor grabbed Han Fei and Xia Xiaochan and threw them to the only breach in the sky. “Remember, my name is Li Huang. Li Huang of the Heavenly Desolation City. My name shall return to the Divine Palace when the Heavenly Desolation City is rebuilt.” Han Fei and Xia Xiaochan soared into the high sky as if they were on a rocket. Han Fei fused with Little Gold quickly and shouted at Xia Xiaochan, “Come here!”
Xia Xiaochan flashed and grabbed Han Fei’s arm, before she exclaimed, “Look!” At this moment, Little Gold’s wings were leaving a trail of fire. They were so fast that even the air had been torn apart. They saw that, down below, Li Huang stepped on the royal fortress and collapsed it. Then, he stood in the void proudly. “My wish has been fulfilled. There’s no enemy that I’m scared of anymore… Hahaha… My sword can kill monsters, warriors, and all the sea demons in this boundless ocean…”
The sky was wreathed by the giant tides that soared thousands of meters high. At this moment, Han Fei couldn’t see Li Huang clearly anymore. The only thing that he could see was his sword aura that was sent rippling out. Those sword aura was glowing!
For a moment, the whole Heavenly Desolation City was covered by the sword aura.
Han Fei had sickness and shortness of breath even though he was high in the sky.
“Pu!!
Xia Xiaochan was not as st.u.r.dy as Han Fei. She vomited blood.
BAM! They were ascending so fast that they dashed through the overwhelming tides like rus.h.i.+ng swordfish. Han Fei saw a lot of sea creatures cruising in the water. Far away, a man-fish seemed to have noticed him too.
But everything was fleeting. Before Han Fei could observe them more carefully, he had sensed the light from above.
BAM!
The surface of the ocean exploded.
Han Fei and Xia Xiaochan broke out of the water and saw the sunset.Han Fei immediately gasped. “Shoot. This is not the Undersea City. Are we not out yet?”
Xia Xiaochan suddenly flashed and left him. Han Fei turned around quickly, only to see that Xia Xiaochan was moving on the sea as a shadow.
On a boat, five advanced Dangling Fishers were staring at him, shocked. They all exclaimed, “Han Fei! It’s Han Fei!” Instantly, Han Fei grinned. “We’re out! Is this the level-three fishery?” “Not good. Xia Xiaochan is here too. Let’s run!” The five advanced Dangling Fishers were almost crying. Why are we so lucky? We were about to leave! How could we have run into those two horrifying people? In the sky, Han Fei took a turn and drew the Blue Sea Wandering Dragon Bow, shooting out arrows of spiritual energy. Xia Xiaochan was even faster. She had killed one after a flash. Now that she performed the Thousand Strike Technique, Han Fei didn’t have to do anything, and all the five enemies could barely resist the blades from all directions.
BAM!
Someone detonated himself, and two dove into the sea. The last two were about to run, when they were tied up by two chains, and two daggers were stuck to their neck before they could jump into the sea. Seeing that Xia Xiaochan intended to chase the runners, Han Fei shook his head. “That’s unnecessary. Just let them go! They can inform other people that we’re out.” Xia Xiaochan said, “Those people are really annoying! They chased me for a long time.”
Han Fei said with a smile, “We’ll chase them as annoyingly later.” Xia Xiaochan mumbled, “I want to have a hotpot. The most delicious one.”
Han Fei said, “Just one moment.”
Then, Han Fei looked at the two survivors and said, “h.e.l.lo! It’s nice to meet you. I’m going to ask a few questions, and you can go if you answer them satisfactorily.” The two men nodded quickly, trembling, with sweat all over their heads. Han Fei grinned and said, “Tell me, what happened in the Undersea City recently?”
