Chapter 579 Lotus Tower + Undersea City 1
(Note: This unit is a cross-dimensional world, combining the ancient Lotus Tower world from the film and television series with an original modern underwater city world after a disaster.)
——Parallel World of Lotus Tower
Before Zhong Ning even opened her eyes, she felt herself in the water, with the aftershocks of several flashes of swords rushing towards her.
Just as she was about to dodge, she realized there was someone else next to her.
Listening to the person next to me, their heavy, disordered breathing and rapid heartbeat were signs of fear and panic.
Without much thought, she picked the person up and darted away. Before leaving, an invisible spiritual force emanated from her body, heading towards the direction that had affected them.
On the large ship, Li Xiangyi and Di Feisheng, who were fighting fiercely back and forth, both felt the ship beneath their feet begin to fall apart, and soon it shattered into countless pieces of broken planks.
The two reacted quickly, leaping into the air and landing on a piece of wood floating on the sea.
Zhong Ning led her people from the water to the largest wooden plank, her arm held tightly by the person next to her the whole time.
She turned her head and saw a skinny girl with unhealthy pale skin, as if she had never been in the sun.
Looking down, she saw that her own skin was the same.
Looking at the modern clothes they were wearing, and then at the two handsome men in ancient costumes opposite them, Zhong Ning thought that she might have switched channels.
She could tell that the two people over there weren't modern people dressed in ancient costumes, because she recognized them both.
Fortunately, she didn't kill them, but only targeted the ship.
The boat was torn to pieces: So, I deserve to be hurt innocently!
Just as Zhong Ning was about to ask Xiao Qi what was going on this time, she was interrupted by the girl next to her.
"Xiao Ran, how come you've suddenly become so amazing?"
The two of them clearly grew up together, went to school and trained together.
How come she didn't know that her best friend could actually float on water? School didn't teach that!
Upon hearing this, Zhong Ning wondered what reason he could use to fool her, or simply give her amnesia or something.
Before she could answer, Zhu Xin seemed to realize something and looked around to confirm something.
Then, her eyes widened in shock and excitement: "Xiao Ran, why isn't there water above us? Is this the surface of the sea?"
What do you mean there's no water on her head? Judging from her expression, she seems quite surprised to be on the surface of the sea. Could it be that she had been underwater the whole time?
Zhong Ning hasn't received the memories yet and doesn't know what's going on.
But now is not the time to talk about this: "Never mind that for now, look, there are still people over there."
The two people in the distance were fighting just now. If I hadn't arrived in time, the original owner and her friends might have been caught in the crossfire and suffered internal injuries.
The girl next to him looks like an ordinary person, except for some signs of training on her body.
However, compared to the two ancient people opposite him who possessed internal energy, he was still far inferior.
Zhong Ning recalled that when she first arrived here, it seemed like they had suddenly appeared.
Hearing this, Zhu Xin also came to her senses and looked over there, her eyes full of curiosity: "Who are they? Why are they dressed so strangely? What kind of clothes and outfits are they wearing?"
As she spoke, she patted her chest again, still shaken: "And just now, I felt danger, and I thought I was going to die."
Zhong Ning found her words rather strange; this girl didn't seem to be from ancient times.
But she doesn't seem like a normal modern person either; she doesn't recognize ancient costumes or ancient attire.
Just as he was about to test the waters, Xiao Qi suddenly spoke up: "Host, the situation is a bit complicated right now. I'll send you back first, and we'll talk after you've received your memories."
Go back? Go back where? Zhong Ning thought for a moment and decided to leave first. Even if she had questions now, it wasn't appropriate to ask: "Okay."
Then, a blinding light shone around the two of them, instantly illuminating the entire sea surface.
Not far away, Di Feisheng and Li Lianhua, who had originally seen the two and wanted to go over to ask them questions, were blinded by the light and instinctively raised their hands to block it.
When they opened their eyes again, they found that the two women who had just been on the sea had vanished without a trace.
Although the two showed no outward signs, their hearts were in turmoil, as they had not noticed any trace of their departure.
And just now, they didn't even notice that attack. If it had been aimed at people instead of the ship, they might not have been able to dodge it.
Although the group was not close, Di Feisheng and Li Xiangyi, who possessed internal strength, had taken in what the women had just said and their reactions.
The two were wearing strange clothes; they were definitely not the kind of clothes the two had ever seen before.
However, at this moment, Di Feisheng was more concerned with defeating his opponent. He leaped up, sword in hand, and shouted, "Li Xiangyi, let's continue fighting!"
Once he defeats Li Xiangyi, he will send men to settle accounts with the two men who destroyed his ship.
However, he was more curious about who had made the move between the two women. They seemed quite skilled, and he wanted to have a friendly spar with them.
Li Xiangyi suppressed his curiosity, and thinking of his senior brother, he also drew his sword and continued to fight.

In the blink of an eye, Zhong Ning and Zhu Xin found themselves in the dark, sunless sea.
The two swam underwater instinctively. Xiao Qi teleported them to a location very close to their destination, and they reached the bottom in no time.
Zhong Ning saw Zhu Xin open a mechanism, and in an instant, they were pulled into a closed passage by a suction force.
"Do people here live underwater?" She looked around and raised an eyebrow without making a sound.
Zhu Xin: "You're finally back, Xiao Ran. What was that we just saw? Was it a hallucination?"
"I don't know either, let's go back and talk about it first." She needed to find a quiet place to process her memories.
As Zhu Xin walked, she muttered, "Okay, let's go back and take a shower and change our clothes. We came up here without any results and even lost the ventilator and the light. It's such an exaggeration."
Zhong Ning didn't speak, because the two of them entered an elevator.
Zhu Xin pressed a button, and the elevator they were in started to descend rapidly.
Perhaps because the original owner of this body was not talkative, Zhu Xin did not show any surprise at her quietness.
Zhong Ning originally wanted to take the opportunity to receive the memories, but Zhu Xin kept talking to her, so she had no choice but to wait a while. Anyway, she could ask Xiao Qi if she didn't know something.
Zhu Xin frowned: "Xiao Ran, are we still going tomorrow? If we don't go, there won't be any food left, and we won't have enough points to pay next month's rent."
Listening to her words, Zhong Ning guessed that the people living at the bottom of the sea seemed to have to go up into the sea to find food, which meant they went there very frequently.
She thought for a moment and decided she still had to go into the sea to find out what was going on: "Go, I don't have any food left either."
If the original owner's situation were different from hers, she probably wouldn't have risked coming up here.
Although she didn't have time to look closely while in the sea, she sensed a lot of auras that would be dangerous to ordinary people.
Zhu Xin's expression shifted between frustration and confusion: "Oh dear, we still need to buy a ventilator, I'm so broke."
After she finished speaking, she asked hesitantly, "Do you think we're hallucinating? Otherwise, how could we see the scenery of mountains and seas that only existed twenty years ago in the photos the teacher showed us in class?"
