Don't be afraid, fairy, I'm blind

Chapter 412: Master and Disciple Miss Each Other, Brother and Sister Depend on Each Other

The phosphorescence of the entire dark sea was extinguished in an instant, as if a huge mouth had swallowed up all the stars.

Before You Su's pupils had adjusted to the sudden chaos, his eardrums were numbed by the millions of layers of roars - it was the wailing of the sea, the bones of billions of creatures bursting under the pressure, and the swallowing sounds that made even the abyss itself tremble.

Bai Ze's ears trembled, the hair on the back of her neck suddenly exploded, and a sense of icy self-satisfaction went straight to her head. As a beast, she could better understand the fear that went straight to the abyss of her heart. Her pupils were slightly absent-minded, but she still raised her head slowly, as if she wanted to die with a clear mind.

And just as she raised her head, You Su's palm had already been pressed on her eyebrows, covering her eyes and holding down her head.

"Don't look." You Su's voice was filled with sand that accidentally entered his mouth. It was not loud, but it was particularly firm.

The girl's eyelashes brushed across his palm, where cold sweat was oozing out.

No matter how brave You Su is or how powerful the identity of the Lord is, when such a huge existence appears above his head, all he can feel is fear.

But despite his fear, You Su always adhered to the principle of not being overwhelmed by fear. He quickly applied the first rule left by the senior and stopped the girl from trying to peek at this being.

In this unpredictable deep sea world, he and Bai Ze were no different from a speck of dust in the eyes of this being. So what they needed to do now was to act like a speck of dust.

Don't associate, don't spy, don't be afraid.

Darkness creeps.

It was not an ordinary shadow, but a sticky texture like some kind of living thing, like a bowl of ink with billions of maggots swirling in it, and the bowl was placed above his head.

Bai Ze tightly grasped You Su's sleeves, and her soft body leaned against You Su's arms. You Su could feel the girl's body stiffening, and his back was numb.

But this at least shows one thing—He is not interested in them at all.

The target of this "big fish" is not them, but the giant giant clam that has emerged from lurking!
In the distance, there was the muffled sound of coral reefs collapsing. The magnificent branches that had grown for thousands of years were breaking off in pieces. The faint blue fluorescent moss was floating like stardust, but it turned into dust the moment it touched an invisible boundary.

You Su could even hear the sound of the giant clam's thick shell, which was probably thousands of years old, breaking and disintegrating, the rustling sound of the granulation withering, and the sigh of the coral colony's collective withering. All the sounds were rolled into a ball and stuffed into an invisible stomach.

However, he did not feel the slightest bit of joy at having escaped death, because when gods fight, mortals suffer. He realized this truth more deeply today.

From that 'slaughterhouse', gravel began to flow backwards, and fine black sand mixed with broken snail shells rose up like a backward black snowstorm.

You Su's robe was rustling in the strong wind. He leaned forward and protected Bai Ze in his arms, with the Mosong sword deeply inserted into the crack in the ground.

He did not run, because he had too many experiences of escaping, and he knew at a glance that they could not escape. This "man-made" underwater dust storm was destined to sweep across the area, and running was futile.

Bai Ze's skirt was lifted by the strong wind, revealing her pale calves. Through You Su's fingers, she also saw the despairing dust storm.

She suddenly pulled Yousu's hand, and the girl who was always like a light cat had never been so rough. Her twin ponytails were blown up by the wind, and the ice-blue fluorescence seeped through her hair.

"stop!"

You Su grabbed the girl's wrist tightly to prevent her from taking the next step of activating her power.

"You better go! I can't hold you back for long!"

The girl shouted anxiously, and the coldness from her body was so strong that the sweat on You Su's palms had condensed into frost, but You Su never let go.

And just when the girl tried to break free from You Su's hand for the first time, the tragic atmosphere of the girl trying to sacrifice herself to save her brother was shattered by a few slaps from You Su.

But this slap was not on the face, but on another equally delicate part.

The girl never expected that when the disaster was imminent, You Su would pick her up even more rudely, then tie her hands behind her back, press them tightly on his knees, and personally carry out the shameful and annoying family rules.

"Do you really need to be so brave? You said you wanted to die, why did I come down here to do something unnecessary?! Didn't I tell you to hide behind me at the beginning? You are as timid as a cat and don't listen to me. Why are you trying to be a hero here?!"

The girl lay on You Su's knees, with the dust storm approaching in front of her and the clear touch of You Su's thick palm coming from behind. This complex experience in despair made her body even softer and she let out a soft hum.

"I'm asking you if you're wrong!!"

You Su frowned, and was really angry at the girl's disregard for her life. He was even angrier when he saw that this stupid cat seemed to enjoy the danger and didn't hear what he was saying at all.

This heavy blow also woke the girl up, and she said aggrievedly: "I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong..."

"If you do it again, the family rules will be even stricter!"

You Su threatened sternly, then put his arms around the girl's legs and held her horizontally against his chest, then ran away like a mad dog.

Bai Ze huddled in You Su's arms, raised her eyes and looked at You Su's jawline, her eyes no longer had the fear of death, but were full of youth. This was the place she was most familiar with, lying here made her feel particularly at ease, because here she was just a kitten who didn't need to take care of anything, and her owner would take her to a safe place.

"Where are we going...?"

"What's your name?" You Su's cheeks were deformed by the headwind, and he suddenly asked an unreasonable question.

Bai Ze answered blankly, "Pearl."

As soon as she finished speaking, her expression suddenly became interesting again, and she quickly realized what You Su was going to do.

Pearls are bred in oyster shells. They can't escape this dust storm, so they hide in the oyster shells and wait until the storm subsides before trying to get out. This way, at least they have a better chance of survival.

A sea clam half-hidden in the sand dunes was slowly opening its shell, its mother-of-pearl layer emitting a faint iridescence in the dim light.

You Su had already been eyeing it. The scabbard of the Mosong sword was stuck in the gap of the spiral pattern. The friction between the metal and the calcium produced scarlet sparks, and finally pried open a gap for people to enter.

You Su pressed Bai Ze's head into his neck and rolled over. The moment the clam shell closed, a roar like a mountain collapsing was heard from the outside.

……

"I seem to have seen this big shell before..."

A slightly neutral voice sounded in the turbid and dim space.

Following the sound, I could only see a tall figure. Although I couldn't see her specific appearance, I could tell from the curvy figure that it was a woman.

The giant creature under her feet had already passed by, and she looked back. The hunting scene had been turned upside down, and the dust blocked all vision, and she could not see anything clearly. "Hurry up when you are full, they are catching up."

The woman tapped her feet lightly, as if urging the giant thing under her feet to move forward.

She hesitated for a moment, but reluctantly looked away. She had been here for who knows how long, and there were countless things that seemed familiar. Some of them she had seen with her own eyes, but most of them were illusions cast by evil spirits. She would try to distinguish them at first, but she had long been accustomed to ignoring them over the years.

So she didn't stay because of this inexplicable sense of familiarity, because she had more important things to do.

She took out a jade tablet from her bosom and held it in her hand to examine it. The jade tablet was a clear red in the darkness. It was a life tablet made of the blood of a newborn baby. Even if it was thousands of miles away, one could know the life or death of the owner of the blood through it.

"Soon... As long as I figure out what's going on, I'll be able to get ashore... I don't know what you look like now, and I don't know how your fake mistress treats you... Alas, I feel lonely after staying in this gloomy seabed for so long... He Shutong, if you dare to cripple my only disciple, I will never let you go!"

"Did you not eat or what?! My apprentice was nine years old and he carried me on his back and crawled faster than you! I told you I'm in a hurry!!"

You Su would never have thought that these lingering and lingering sounds in the depths of the sea could be the sounds of confusion emitted by some forbidden existence, or they could be the endless mumblings of some powerful being...

……

The two were once again forced into a small space, the fishy and salty mucus soaked through the gauze skirt, sticking their clothes together into a mess. You Su could even feel the girl's drum-like heartbeat through the wet fabric, and only their intertwined breathing could be heard.

"Don't move." You Su held Bai Ze's shaking waist, "It's trying to get rid of the foreign object."

Before he finished speaking, the clams' rejection reaction became more intense. If it weren't for the pressure of the dust outside, the two would have been squeezed out.

"Brother Yousu...are we going to become real pearls..."

The inside of the shell was dotted with faint iridescence, reflecting the girl's weak smile.

The space inside the clam shell is small and humid, and sand and dust seep in through the gaps, occupying the already narrow space.

"The dust storm won't last long. We'll find a way out once the pressure stabilizes." You Su comforted the girl with a firm tone.

"it is good……"

The nacre layer continued to ooze out sticky pearl. The girl leaned obediently on You Su's neck, her nose lingering with the mixed smell of rust and sea.

Every rejection reaction of the snail meat brought new torture: the skirt rolled up to her thighs, and the exposed skin rubbed against You Su's thin belly. The black hair fell like a waterfall, entwining his wrist holding the sword.

As the air became thinner, You Su finally noticed the unusual quietness of the person in his arms. Bai Ze's breathing was as thin as a thread, and the blood on his shoulder was a strange purple in the dim light.

Only then did You Su remember that there was a gap on Bai Ze's shoulder that was thicker than her wrist.

"pearl?"

He anxiously tapped the back of her neck with his fingers, feeling it was cold and wet, and the only response he got was increasingly disordered breathing.

Her breathing was rapid and shallow, as if it would stop at any moment. The girl's long eyelashes brushed across his collarbone, like the wings of a dying butterfly.

You Su's Adam's apple rolled, anxiety and regret filled his chest. The girl's willingness to sacrifice just now was just a pretense, which made him forget how seriously she was injured.

Trapped in a place with limited air and space, coupled with her previous wanton use of unstable power, she almost didn't even have the strength to breathe.

You Su's heart tightened involuntarily as he looked at the girl's pale lips. He had no time to care about too much and slowly moved closer, close enough to count the tiny specks of dust hanging on her fair eyelashes, close enough to feel her sweet breath brushing his cheek.

The moment their lips touched, Bai Ze suddenly opened his eyes wide.

She instinctively grasped his collar, her fingertips sinking into You Su's firm muscles, but the clam, which was always trying to reject foreign objects, deepened the breathless kiss. You Su could even taste the remaining blood between her teeth, mixed with a dizzying sweetness.

A thin layer of sweat oozed out of You Su's palms. He did not regard it as a pleasant experience at all. He only wanted to save this stupid cat.

He raised his head, took another deep breath, and continued to cross.

"Don't close your eyes, focus on your breathing." You Su's instructions were brief, with unquestionable tenderness.

However, You Su, who was only focused on saving the cat, was still disturbed. His pupils widened and happened to meet Bai Ze's slightly narrowed eyes.

There was a hint of ignorant clarity in his eyes, as if a kitten was subconsciously licking milk stains.

You Su didn't think much about it. He thought this method was working and the girl was thirsty for oxygen, so he let the girl breathe a few more times.

"You Su..." The girl regained some strength and wanted to call him.

"Shh." You Su put his forehead against hers, "Remember to breathe. I'll take you out."

"Your heart is beating so fast..." the girl murmured with a smile.

You Su raised his eyebrows slightly, feeling a little embarrassed, but escaping was the most important thing at the moment, and he was too lazy to teach this naughty kitten a lesson, so he just replied in a cold voice:
"If you continue to talk, you will die."

He moved his body with difficulty, and Bai Ze also obediently avoided him. His warm cheek brushed across his carotid artery, and he pressed his sweaty forehead against You Su's heart.

Bai Ze smiled in You Su's invisible arms. The rapid, hot heartbeat that resonated with hers seemed to make her understand something.

The dull vibration outside the clam shell finally stopped, and You Su knew that the outside world had stabilized. The air here was getting thinner and thinner, and Bai Ze was seriously injured, so it was urgent to get out.

He suddenly groaned, and using the strength he had been accumulating, he actually managed to force a bigger hole in the clam shell.

He just bent his knees and arms and crawled on the ground, using his entire flesh and blood to support the clam shell and the thick sand on the clam shell. More sand and dust poured in during this gap. You Su clenched his teeth and squeezed out a few words:
"Freeze me for a moment with ice... and let me strike with my sword!"

Bai Ze lay under him, looking at You Su's face, and the smile on her face froze involuntarily.

This was a feeling and excitement she had never experienced before, and it was different from ordinary salvation. It felt like... someone had held up the sky for her.

She did not hesitate any longer, and a deep blue cold light lingered on her fingertips.

When the thousands of pounds of pressure on You Su's body were temporarily replaced by the ice, the sword intent that had been accumulated for a long time burst out.
