Fiancée Stolen by MC, I Trip Them up

After arranging everything in the New World, Zhao Yi hurriedly arrived at the Water World. The scene before him was quite unexpected; he had never seen so much water.

There was not a speck of land in sight, but Zhao Yi did not care about that. He summoned the magical artifacts he had prepared in advance.

Finally, he recited a spell, but these waters did not respond to the incantation. The magical artifact couldn't absorb the water at all.

At first, Zhao Yi thought he was just tired from his continuous journeys, so he transformed the Nine Dragon Jade Seal into Shennong, preparing to perform the Divine Dragon Absorbing Water.

After circling above the water for half a day, with his mouth open for a long time, not a ripple appeared in the water. The Nine Dragon Jade Seal felt a bit ashamed since, after all, it was a dragon that controlled water.

So he decided to dive directly into the water to drink a magical water treasure, but as soon as he touched the water's surface, it was like hitting a steel plate, leaving the Nine Dragon Jade Seal dizzy.

Only then did Zhao Yi realize that taking water from here was not that simple. He looked around and spoke to the sky.

"I am Zhao Yi, and I wish to borrow some water from here. If you agree, I will definitely repay you in the future."

After Zhao Yi finished speaking, there was no response from the sky. He didn't quite understand why the Heavenly Dao wouldn't show up for a meeting.

The Nine Dragon Jade Seal then said, puzzled.

"I think that this world might not be governed by the Law. The world doesn't require any exchange; perhaps we're just using the wrong artifacts.

Moreover, if there really is a Heavenly Dao Will here, and it knows you've come but doesn't reveal itself, it either doesn't think much of you or doesn't want to deal with you.

Or perhaps it stands with the Divine Tree; those are the only two possibilities."

After the Nine Dragon Jade Seal's analysis, Zhao Yi nodded in agreement. He decided to continue flying to see if he could find any living people in this world.

In Zhao Yi's view, as long as he found someone alive to ask, he could definitely learn the rules.

Once he knew the rules, nothing would be impossible. However, after flying for almost several hours, it was still endless water, which made Zhao Yi a bit weary.

He landed directly on the water's surface, sighed, and said.

"This is the first time I've encountered something like this."

At this moment, Nine Dragon Jade Seal's voice sounded rather excited as it said to Zhao Yi.

"Sir, look at that black dot in the distance; I think it should be a piece of land. After all, if it were water, it should be blue."

Nine Dragon Jade Seal's words ignited a glimmer of hope in Zhao Yi. He flew into the sky to look around and suddenly noticed what seemed to be a small island in the distance. He then transformed into a golden light and sped towards it.

Ten minutes later, Zhao Yi arrived at the destination, and only then did he realize this black dot was much larger than he had imagined.

It was a fairly large piece of land, covered with trees. Seeing no buildings, Zhao Yi landed into the forest and began to walk forward.

In his opinion, there must be traces of human activity here. After walking for nearly half an hour, Zhao Yi suddenly heard a sound.

He listened while standing still, but a human voice came from behind.

"Hey there, young man, where are you from? It's the first time I've seen you in the Water World, and to be honest, it's quite impressive that you managed to find this place.

After all, this place is in the central area of the Water World, where most people can't reach."

Zhao Yi turned to look and saw not far away an old gentleman, appearing to be in his seventies or eighties, very amiable.

He held a cane, looking harmless, and Zhao Yi replied with a smile.

"I come from another Law Realm; my goal is to take some water from here. But the artifacts can't take any water.

Nor can we enter below the water's surface. We know there must be rules here, so I hope you could enlighten us."

As Zhao Yi finished speaking, his stomach growled, and the old man saw this and laughed heartily, saying to Zhao Yi.

"If you want to take water, there are many things to go through. Let's do this: come to my house, and we'll have a nice chat.

You'll also get something to eat, fill your stomach first. The Water World is not as you imagine; it consumes a huge amount of physical energy.

Don't assume that just because you have abundant Spiritual Energy, you can act recklessly here."

The old man turned and entered the forest without waiting for Zhao Yi's agreement. Seeing this, Zhao Yi followed, and after walking for more than ten minutes, there were still no buildings in sight.

This puzzled Nine Dragon Jade Seal, who reminded Zhao Yi in the Spiritual World.

"This old man is quite strange for just showing up, and why is he so eager to help us? I think you should be careful.

As the saying goes, when something seems too good to be true, it usually is."

"Don't worry, I'm not that foolish. But in our current situation, we have no choice but to rely on him."

While Zhao Yi and Nine Dragon Jade Seal were conversing in the Spiritual World, a small courtyard appeared before Zhao Yi, and he breathed a sigh of relief. The old man led Zhao Yi into the courtyard to sit and did not attend him anymore, going into the kitchen to cook.

After preparing the meal, the old man brought a bottle of wine to the courtyard and sat down, then introduced himself.

"My name is Miao Wuhen. I came here three hundred years ago to cultivate, and now I've somewhat succeeded. It's not just you; even I haven't seen the Heavenly Dao Will here.

However, I do know a thing or two about getting water; it's just that it may require a price you're unwilling to pay."

Miao Wuhen's words made Zhao Yi very happy, but he didn't continue asking questions; after all, the man was hosting him with food and wine. It would be rude to bombard him with questions.

The meal didn't last very long. After forty minutes, Miao Wuhen cleared the things, drank two more cups of tea, and then said to Zhao Yi.

"In the center of this forest, there's a temple. Inside the main hall, there's a statue, the embodiment of the Heavenly Dao Will. Explain your purpose to it.

It will naturally tell you the price you need to pay. If by that time you can't accept it, you can return to find me, and we will come up with other solutions."

Upon hearing this from Miao Wuhen, Zhao Yi nodded and set off early the following day after resting for a night.

Miao Wuhen had already told him the route and warned him that flying wasn't allowed in the forest; he had to walk through it.

Even so, Zhao Yi took only two hours to reach the forest center, where a high platform stood before him.

On top of the platform was a small temple, and Zhao Yi knew he had reached his destination.

A gentle breeze blew at this moment, but Zhao Yi was not at ease at all.
