The sea water crashed down, and the surface of the sea crackled, ripples spreading out in circles.

A faint golden light surrounded Turquoise Pool's body, keeping all the rain at bay.

"Aren't you 'The World's Number One'? she teased, "How come you can't take down a frail woman like me with just two moves?"

"If you are a frail woman, then there are no strong women in the world," Li Changzhou said.

"Hearing him speak, I'm sweating all over~"

"Fifteen years until today before confessing the truth~"

"Who sang that?"

"Teacher Li Weikang's 'Siliang Visits His Mother'."

Turquoise Pool extended her slender, white hand, wanting to shake hands with him.

"Great minds think alike," she said.

"The tacit understanding between friends," Li Changzhou reached out his hand.

Turquoise Pool withdrew her hand, and a stream of water formed from thin air between her fingers, washing her fingertips and palm.

"...We haven't even shaken hands yet."

"You've already dirtied it."

This woman really was unpretentious.

"Is this your person?" Li Changzhou lifted his left hand, the 'Fruit Lady', who had fainted in the battle, was pinched by the back of the neck.

"My Undercover agent on Zheng Chenggong's ship," Turquoise Pool glanced and said.

Li Changzhou handed the person over to her, never looking down at the 'Fruit Lady' from the beginning to the end.

"You really prize cleanliness," Turquoise Pool said with a smile as she took over.

"Kidding me, I've read 'Male Virtue'," Li Changzhou said proudly, flinging his sleeves.

Turquoise Pool opened her hand and threw the 'Fruit Lady' into the sea, where the water swirled quickly, etching out the upper half of the 'Fruit Lady's' body.

"Empress Turquoise Pool!" Even with a body made of seawater, the sight of Turquoise Pool still made her shudder.

Turquoise Pool gestured, "Don't blame yourself this time, next time you see him, come out directly and say hello, you can also look for him if there's danger."

"Sorry," Li Changzhou smiled and bowed to the 'Fruit Lady' with his fists.

He looked at Turquoise Pool: "Will you come with us?"

"Sure, I'll be the Empress."

"..."

The two of them skimmed toward Zheng Chenggong's warship.

Turquoise Pool could fly, Li Changzhou could not (Stepping in the air is cool when making an entrance, but it's too low level for traveling), so both of them flew close to the sea surface.

With a light tap of the toes on the water, they sprang forth, gliding over the waves.

"What's your Identity?" Li Changzhou asked along the way.

"Penglai Immortal," Turquoise Pool answered.

"Really or not?"

"Would I lie to you?"

"No, I mean... Never mind."

"Do you know what I hate the most? People who only speak half their mind," she said.

"Actually, it's... ah, we've arrived."

"Li Changzhou!"

The two landed on the deck. The beauty of the Turquoise Pool took one's breath away and inspired awe. The white hair made people hesitant to approach, a mythological splendor that once again left the ancient people around them dumbfounded.

The Turquoise Pool didn't look at them. She gazed at Yang Qinglan, and the two exchanged glances.

With a smile, the Turquoise Pool examined her, while Yang Qinglan remained calm and composed.

"Let's get one thing straight, Miss Yang is the only one in my heart," Li Changzhou hurriedly said, now was not the time to care about the dignity of an immortal.

"He's not feeling guilty like a thief; this is truly what he believes," the Turquoise Pool spoke in his defense.

Yang Qinglan's eyes sparkled deeply at Li Changzhou, like two of the most beautiful gemstones, the center of the universe.

"I trust your keen insight will certainly not be swayed by others!" Li Changzhou appeared firm, but inside he was terrified.

"Are you hurt?" Yang Qinglan asked him.

"No, no."

Yang Qinglan nodded, indicating all was well.

The Turquoise Pool's smile deepened—this was fighting spirit. She was about to say something when a streak of light fell from the sky, and Li Qianxia, riding on a Springbok, appeared on the deck.

"Brother, look!" She stood tall and proud, pinching an Identity Card between her fingertips, looking quite pleased with herself.

"You are the most beautiful, the most obedient, and the strongest sister in the world."

"Hmph," Li Qianxia snorted, then noticed the Turquoise Pool, "Ah, Sister Turquoise Pool!"

She lifted her leg, dismounted from the Springbok, wrapped her arms around the Turquoise Pool's waist, and buried her face in her chest.

"Sister Turquoise Pool~" Her face rubbed against the Turquoise Pool, then she looked up, "I didn't expect to see you this time, this is wonderful!"

"Your brother hit me the moment he saw me," the Turquoise Pool tattled.

Li Changzhou stood beside Yang Qinglan and whispered to her, "Hear that?"

Yang Qinglan glanced at him, then swept her gaze toward Zheng Chenggong, signaling him to focus on more important matters.

Li Changzhou placed his hands behind his back and said to Zheng Chenggong, "Prince Zheng, order the fleet to move forward."

"Alright. All forces, advance!"

At the top of the mainmast, the signal flag to continue the advance was raised, and the 300 sailboats once more set course for Treasure Island.

"Immortal Master," Zheng Chenggong approached Li Changzhou, "Who were those people just now?"

"Where there is shadow, there is light; where there is fair weather, there is rain; just as there are immortals like myself who follow the path of heaven, so are there demons who go against the grain—these matters are none of your concern. They belong to heavenly disasters; leave them to me. Prepare for the upcoming battles; as for matters among mortals, I will not intervene."

As long as any "Heavenly Disaster" is dealt with, history will continue to develop according to its natural order.

Li Changzhou asked Zheng Chenggong to prepare a cabin for them. Apart from encounters with "Heavenly Disaster," no one was allowed to disturb them for any other reason.

Seated in the cabin, without the presence of ancient people, the four of them relaxed somewhat—especially Li Changzhou, who was mainly striking a pose.

"What is your task?" Li Changzhou asked the Turquoise Pool.

"I'm not telling. 'The host' knows other people's tasks, they could steal them," she replied.

Li Changzhou, with a guilty conscience, felt her laughter held a significant meaning. He complained without betraying his emotions, "You can't tell 'the host,' and you can't tell me either?"

"How are your Visualization practices coming along?" the Turquoise Pool changed the subject.

This woman was too crafty, she didn't even trust him!

"I've had four breakthroughs, what about you, Sister Turquoise Pool?" Li Qianxia asked.

"I've also had four," the Turquoise Pool answered.

"So you're stuck here too, Sister Turquoise Pool."
