Chapter 256: The Ink Sea Star Ship
“A wanted poster? You can read the text? Who exactly is putting a bounty on you?” Zhanyue asked, already feeling a surge of anger. He had become very impulsive lately.
“Yes, I can read it. By chance, I learned this world’s writing for a while. It’s not complicated,” Baizhi explained, then continued: “It says there’s a bounty for the Star… Star Sea… Goddess… Anyone who brings her to the Ink Sea will receive living quarters for 100 people on the Ink Sea Star Ship.” Baizhi said somewhat embarrassedly.
Zhanyue stared at Baizhi and asked, “Star Sea Goddess? You? Is it that Ink Sea Lord who’s offering this bounty?”
Baizhi nodded, blushing a little. “That’s right, they gave me that title. I’ve never met this Ink Sea Lord, and I don’t know why he’s putting a bounty on me.”
Zhanyue could understand. To outsiders, Baizhi was not only beautiful but also possessed many strange abilities. Before her pills ran out, she was quite formidable. After adventuring in this world for so long, she naturally made a name for herself.
“I’d like to know what this Ink Sea Lord is all about, setting his sights on my woman,” Zhanyue narrowed his eyes, pondering his next move.
“Pah, what do you mean your woman? Who says?” Baizhi pouted, pretending to be angry, but actually feeling delighted inside. Apart from her grandmother, Zhanyue was the person she trusted most in the world, having given all her feelings to him.
“Let’s go. I’ll go meet this so-called Ink Sea Lord,” Zhanyue swallowed Baizhi again to protect her, then dove into the sea, swimming northward at a speed incomprehensible to the people of this world.
Chatting and joking with Baizhi along the way, resting, and mostly traveling, they finally covered a distance in three days that would take others several months, arriving at the edge of the Ink Sea.
