331: A sword that splits the sea!
Wang Mian held Yi Yuan horizontally in front of his chest and looked at the uninvited guests opposite him, immediately becoming vigilant.
"Stop! Who are you?" Wang Mian asked sharply.
At this time, anyone appearing in this sea area must not be an ordinary person.
And looking at the opponents' attire, they were clearly not Night Watchers.
The other party indeed stopped, and the man and woman also began to size up Wang Mian and Zhou Ping.
A soft, weak female voice drifted over with the sea breeze.
"So it's the Great Xia Sword Saint Zhou Ping and the captain of the Mask Squad. Your reputations preceded you; I had already heard of them when I was in Cangnan."
Hmm? Cangnan?
A hint of doubt flashed in Wang Mian's mind. It was normal for the other party to know about him and Zhou Ping's situation.
But she actually said that she had stayed in Cangnan?
Cangnan, woman!
Wang Mian's mind worked quickly, and a name immediately came to his mind.
Si Xiaonan.
This former 136 Squad member was actually the God of Mischief's agent who had infiltrated Great Xia.
After the Cangnan incident, this agent of the God of Mischief left Great Xia with Leng Xuan and had not been heard from since.
However, according to the testimonies of Lin Qi Ye and other members of the 136 Squad, this agent of the God of Mischief seemed to have her own difficulties.
On the Cangnan battlefield at that time, Si Xiaonan also did not follow Loki's instructions to snatch Shiva's Grudge.
This left some room for the Night Watcher's high-level officials to ease their attitude towards Si Xiaonan.
"Are you Si Xiaonan?" Wang Mian asked.
"Heh heh, since you've guessed it, then I don't need to hide my identity anymore." With that, Si Xiaonan removed the No Fate Gauze from herself and Leng Xuan, restoring their original appearances.
Wang Mian was a little shocked. What's going on? You're not even going to pretend?
I just asked a question, and you just admitted it so clearly?
Is this agent of the God of Mischief so direct in her actions?
This style seems to have nothing to do with Loki; instead, it's more like the hot-tempered Thor from Norse mythology.
Could it be that Si Xiaonan is sending some kind of message?
Wang Mian understood. After all, from what they had learned before, Si Xiaonan was a meticulous person.
Since she chose such an "open and direct" approach, there might be other reasons.
Indeed, Si Xiaonan continued to speak.
"Did you come here to disrupt Loki's plan?"
As soon as she said this, Wang Mian immediately understood.
Loki had already infiltrated Great Xia, and Si Xiaonan and Leng Xuan were clearly sending him a message.
Having figured this out, Wang Mian also began to cooperate with Si Xiaonan.
"What exactly does Loki want to do here?"
Si Xiaonan sneered, "Hmph, you hateful Night Watchers, do you think I'll tell you? Leng Xuan, act!"
A hazy white light bloomed in Si Xiaonan's hand, enveloping Wang Mian and Zhou Ping.
Then she immediately pulled Leng Xuan away, and Leng Xuan also took out his sniper rifle, aiming at Wang Mian and Zhou Ping, who were surrounded by the No Fate Gauze.
Wang Mian and Zhou Ping looked at the hazy, blurry white light around them and made their calculations.
"Senior Zhou Ping, it seems they also don't know Loki's purpose," Wang Mian said softly.
Zhou Ping nodded, "It doesn't matter. Just the intelligence that Loki is here is already very valuable.
It's time to help them find a suitable reason to leave here."
How could Zhou Ping, with his Lapis Lazuli Child's Heart, not understand the thoughts of the few people just now?
"Today, let me be the bad guy!"
Zhou Ping slowly drew the Dragon Elephant Sword from his back. Si Xiaonan's No Fate Gauze had no effect on him.
"Intruding into my Great Xia territory, you have already sought death!" Zhou Ping's tone was a little awkward; it was his first time speaking such arrogant words.
Si Xiaonan and Leng Xuan, who had already pulled away, were also surprised. Was it Zhou Ping who made the move?
A sword light suddenly flashed across the turbulent sea surface.
Countless seawater adhered to the sword light, like an overwhelming force, crashing towards Si Xiaonan and Leng Xuan.
Looking at the hundred-meter-high giant wave in front of them, Si Xiaonan and Leng Xuan both swallowed simultaneously.
Goodness, the scene Zhou Ping arranged for the two of them was a bit too grand!
Wang Mian, standing beside Zhou Ping, couldn't help but worry, what if Zhou Ping's sword really injured them?
Boom!
The violent waves crashed fiercely towards Si Xiaonan and Leng Xuan. Leng Xuan put away his sniper rifle and then pulled out a rocket launcher from somewhere.
He held Si Xiaonan with one hand and operated the rocket launcher with the other.
A large plume of exhaust flame burst from the rocket launcher's nozzle, and the huge impact directly carried him and Si Xiaonan away from this sea area.
Wang Mian breathed a sigh of relief, seeing Si Xiaonan and Leng Xuan leave safely.
"Senior Zhou Ping, let's go down and take a look next."
Zhou Ping nodded, "Since that's the case, let me open a path."
Whoosh!
Zhou Ping exhaled evenly, and in an instant, his eyes were filled with focus.
Unlike the sword that sent Si Xiaonan away just now, Zhou Ping was now getting serious.
There were no Mental Energy fluctuations, but a powerful aura emanated from Zhou Ping's body.
The originally turbulent sea surface actually began to gradually quiet down.
Wang Mian, observing from the side, also unconsciously slowed his breathing, not daring to exhale loudly.
A sharp glint suddenly burst from Zhou Ping's eyes, and then he gently swiped across the sea surface.
Buzz!
The sword light cut across the sea surface, and the body of the Dragon Elephant Sword erupted with a dragon's roar and a tiger's growl.
Rumble!
Centered on the sword light, the originally roaring sea surface was actually split in two, like jelly.
Not only that, but the seawater seemed to be frightened by the Sword Qi and began to slowly recede to both sides.
This sword left Wang Mian dumbfounded.
This... is this the strength of Great Xia's top human ceiling?
This is too exaggerated, isn't it?
Just as Wang Mian was surprised, Zhou Ping suddenly spoke:
"Be careful, something's coming!"
Wang Mian quickly focused his attention and looked towards the seabed.
As the seawater receded, the true situation below was revealed.
A huge whale skeleton appeared in their sight, and in the center of the skeleton, there was a giant tumor.
Dozens of humans were embedded in the tumor, and disgusting tentacles grew from the tumor, seemingly wrapping around something.
Seeing the appearance of the wrapped object, a stormy wave surged in Wang Mian's heart.
That's... Yi Yuan?
But if that's Yi Yuan, then what is this blade in my hand?
Wang Mian subconsciously looked at the blade in his hand, a little lost in thought.
Just then, Zhou Ping suddenly swung out his second sword.
The biting Sword Qi directly slashed towards the tumor. At this moment, everyone could see that the strange tumor should be the origin of everything.
