《Disciple, Don't Cause Trouble, Master Won't Leave the Mountain!》Chapter 128: Fear of the Deep Sea

"Do you think I'm the kind of person who tortures their disciple every day?"Jiang Yun looked innocent. However, he could not help but recall the scene when he beat up that silly bird, Kong Li.
"Is that so?" Qin Xiaoxi looked at him in disbelief and then continued, "Then how did you know that your disciple was scolding you behind your back? Are you the one who fought with me that day?"
Jiang Yun was slightly surprised.
He did not expect that Qin Xiaoxi's intelligence to be this level. She immediately guessed which disciple would speak ill of him behind his back.
"Your guess is pretty accurate. How did you know that it must be him?"Jiang Yun asked in surprise. He almost stuffed the fish in his hand into the fire.
"Because I'm smart."
Qin Xiaoxi snorted, and a proud smile appeared on her face. Actually, it was not hard to see that. The attitude and manner in which Jiang Yun's other two disciples talked to Jiang Yun was a great contrast to Kong Li, who had fought with her that day. All of them seemed to respect Jiang Yun very much, except for Kong Li, who was disrespectful whenever he opened his mouth, therefore, it was not difficult to see that.
"Well, it was rather quite easy to see, I guess you would be an idiot if you can't tell." Jiang Yun shook his head.
He flipped the fish in his hand once again. At this moment, the sea fish on the skewer had been grilled by the intense fire. Its fragrance filled the entire deck, and one could smell that Qin Xiaoxi's stomach was rumbling. She and Jiang Yun had eaten many pancakes during their trip.
Jiang Yun shook the grilled fish on the stick.

Then, he handed one of the skewers to Qin Xiaoxi.
"You must be hungry."
Qin Xiaoxi nodded and quickly took it.
"Hurry up and taste it. Is it good?"
"It's just grilled by fire. What else can it taste like?"Qin Xiaoxi said and took a bite of the fish. A long-lost taste entered Qin Xiaoxi's taste buds. Although the fish looked crispy after being grilled by Jiang Yun.., the meat inside the fish was still fresh and tender. Was this the feeling of being charred on the outside and tender on the inside?
Qin Xiaoxi quickly took another bite.
She had been eating rations for a few days. Finally, she had a taste of meat now.
"Eat slowly, eat slowly."Jiang Yun put another roasted fish to his mouth. He had to admit that the fish he roasted tasted pretty good. Although it was a bit burned on the outside, the meat of the fish was still a little juicy.
"By the way, how did you get this fish?"
"It's a vast ocean around here. Wouldn't it be easy to get a fish?"Jiang Yun was also starving. He didn't care about anything else and just wolfed down the fish while talking to Qin Xiaoxi.
"I didn't know that your grilled fish tasted pretty good."Qin Xiaoxi nodded in admiration.
"Isn't that right? Not only do you have a bodyguard, but you also have a chef now." At this point, half of the fish in his hand was gone. Qin Xiaoxi couldn't understand how a person could eat so fast.
"Enough, enough. Just a few words of praise makes you float."Qin Xiaoxi shook her head helplessly.
At this time, the last ray of light on the surface of the sea had finally disappeared. In the Sea of the Northern Region, for some unknown reason, even the moon could not be seen. And the fire they had made on the deck was probably the only light among the surface of the vast deep sea.

After the two of them finished eating, they tidied up and leaned against the railing. They looked at the pitch-black surface of the sea.
Jiang Yun slowly felt that the temperature had dropped a lot compared to yesterday. However, this was a good development. The continuous drop in temperature also meant that they were getting closer and closer to the northern region.
"What are you thinking about?"Jiang Yun turned his gaze to Qin Xiaoxi, who was staring blankly at the surface of the sea.
Qin Xiaoxi was silent for a moment. The sea breeze brushed past her face, and her soft and beautiful side profile seemed to become even more attractive under the blowing of her hair.
"I don't know why, but I feel that this bottomless sea seems... somewhat terrifying."
"Why do you say that?"Jiang Yun asked curiously. "You're not afraid of falling, are you?"
Qin Xiaoxi shook her head.
"Falling down? No... It's just that the surface of the sea looks so dark. How deep Is It?"
"It should be three hundred meters. Why are you suddenly talking about this?"
"I just feel that you'll never know what's hidden in this bottomless deep sea. The ocean... is extremely mysterious even to powerful cultivators."
Qin Xiaoxi was right.
Up until now, there was no cultivation technique that could help cultivators move underwater for a long time. Moreover, the color of the Sea of the Northern Region was always dark blue. Looking from afar.., it was as if there was a bottomless abyss hidden at the bottom of the sea.
There were too many legends about the sea.
No matter if they were experienced fishermen or powerful cultivators, they all held a trace of reverence towards the sea.
"Three years ago, when I went out to travel, I heard people talk about it. The rules for fishermen to go out to sea are really complicated," Qin Xiaoxi continued.
"What?"
"Not only that you can only go out to sea at specific times, there's even taboos on what you wear, and what you say."
Jiang Yun, of course, knew what the taboos Qin Xiaoxi mentioned were. They were probably words related to maritime accidents that could not be mentioned on a fishing boat. Otherwise, they might be swallowed by the vast ocean.
However, to Jiang Yun, this was complete nonsense.
The only thing Jiang Yun was worried about was the legend of the sea demon.
It was better to believe it than not to believe it. When Jiang Yun told Qin Xiaoxi that there was no sea demon, it was only to let Qin Xiaoxi relax. However, as they were getting closer to the northern region, he had to be wary of these rumored terrifying creatures. If they really appeared.., it would definitely be extremely serious.
"Fishermen are naturally part of the rules of their profession. However, to us cultivators, they aren't very important."Jiang Yun cleared his throat.
"Speaking of which... I suddenly remembered something. At that time, I didn't think it was anything, but now that I think about it again, I feel a chill down my spine."
When Jiang Yun heard this, he quickly turned his gaze to Qin Xiaoxi.
