Chapter 482 -483: A Bad Premonition
The vast and endless night was even more turbulent at sea.
Other than the howling wind and the pounding waves, one couldn’t see anything else as far as the eye could see.
However, Zhao Xiyan was fully equipped, so he had nothing to fear even in the worst environments!
Just a moment ago, the boat in his night vision goggles had already headed in the direction of the Longnan County Government.
“Gensheng, you should go back first, just make sure not to alert your Sister Yueyue,” he said.
Zhao Xiyan said this as he started to put on his diving suit.
“I’m not going back. Gensheng is here to protect my brother-in-law, how could I leave like this?!”
“But your Sister Yueyue made it clear, as soon as I leave, you are to go back.”
“No way, this is my first time accompanying my brother-in-law on a mission, I absolutely won’t go back. Besides, Sister Yueyue promised to coordinate with me from the surface of the sea!”
Song Gensheng’s childlike insistence succeeded in convincing Zhao Xiyan.
“Alright then, you wait here. If anything unusual happens, leave immediately!”
“If anything unusual happens, that’s even more reason not to go back!” Song Gensheng shook his head like a rattle drum.
Zhao Xiyan, at a loss, pressed his lips together, having no choice but to let it go.
“Then you must hide well and not let anyone recognize who you are.”
“Yes, don’t worry brother-in-law!” Song Gensheng replied cheerfully, “Starting now, I’m just a rock, no one will be able to tell.”
Having said that, he sat down next to a chunk of stone.
Clothed in black, with a dark face, he really did look just like a piece of stone in the dark night.
Zhao Xiyan smiled slightly, then leaped up from the spot, chasing after the departing ship.
Amid the vast and obscure mist on the water, the ship swayed forward, and after about half a shichen, it finally stopped.
By then, Zhao Xiyan was already hiding under the ship, waiting for those people to dive into the water.
Sure enough, not long after, dark figures splashed into the water one after another, heading straight towards the edge of the cape.
Then, the ship also didn’t stop, it turned a beautiful spray of water and left.
Zhao Xiyan followed the dark figures closely, swimming forward.
After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the dark-clothed figures suddenly stopped, plunging straight toward the seabed.
When they reached the sea bottom, each of them took out a wrapped white object from their bodies and buried it in the sandy soil of the seabed.
Afterward, they rose to the surface to breathe, and then swam forward a bit further, plunging back down again, repeating the previous action.
This went on several times without end.
Zhao Xiyan found it odd and wanted to dig up one of the objects buried by the dark-clothed figures, but remembering Qi Yue’s repeated admonitions, he restrained himself.
Eventually, he was shocked to discover that these dark-clothed figures had reached the Nanling Marine Area belonging to the Longnan County Government.
They continued repeating their previous action, pulling out items wrapped in white material from their bosom and stuffing them into the crevices of the sea cliffs.
He had the intuition that this matter was very important.
Zhao Xiyan didn’t wait any longer. He followed one of the black-clothed figures who had come up to breathe, knocked him out with a palm strike, and carried him as he treaded water toward the shore.
Meanwhile, Song Gensheng, who was squatting by the seaside pretending to be a rock, was facing an unprecedented crisis.
After Zhao Xiyan had left, Song Gensheng had obediently sat on the large rock, eyes fixed on the sea, always vigilant.
Nothing had happened before, and it had even been a bit boring.
So boring that Song Gensheng had actually fallen asleep.
In his drowsy state, he suddenly heard the sound of voices.
He thought Zhao Xiyan had come back and was about to call out when he saw two figures slowly stopping in front of him.
Judging by their silhouettes, they were definitely not Zhao Xiyan.
An anomaly!
An anomaly had appeared!
Could it be that something had gone wrong!
At that moment, Song Gensheng wanted to leap out and start a fight with the two newcomers, but suddenly he remembered Zhao Xiyan’s warning before he left. He hurriedly concealed his presence and once again made himself indistinguishable from a rock.
“How are the preparations going?” An elderly voice.
“Your Excellency can rest assured, if not one hundred percent, then we are at least ninety percent ready. Once this thunderstorm season is over, we can take action!” A middle-aged man’s humble voice.
“Good.”
The elderly voice praised, raspy and threadbare, as if it hadn’t been maintained for years, or as if it had been worn out from daily shouting.
“There haven’t been any suspicious people around lately, have there?!”
“Everything’s normal, Your Excellency, rest assured; the brothers are all being careful!”
“How is the staffing at the Maritime Office coming along?”
“It’s almost complete. We picked a few people with good skills at the guard selection conference, and I believe they will certainly be of great help.”
“That’s good, you’ve been stationed here for over a decade and it hasn’t been in vain,” the elderly voice seemed somewhat gratified as it praised again.
“Your Excellency’s kindness is as heavy as a mountain. Sheng Lang will definitely not fail Your Excellency’s expectations.”
“However…” the elderly voice paused, “be cautious about the people across from us. That Zhao fellow is not easy to deal with, and the woman by his side is very strange. You all need to be careful. In any case, there must not be any mistakes before the thunderstorm ends!”
“Yes, Your Excellency, rest assured, the frogmen all travel by boat and swim back. They will certainly not be discovered!”
“…”
As Song Gensheng heard the two people mentioning Zhao Xiyan and Qi Yue, he couldn’t help clenching his fists involuntarily, and his breathing became somewhat erratic.
This slight disturbance was enough to alert the two conversing a few steps away.
“Who’s there?!” The middle-aged voice suddenly exploded, and the person rapidly approached the rock!
By this time, Song Gensheng had somewhat realized who these two people were and immediately froze.
The world’s number one Deathblade, Sheng Lang!
It was said that once he made a move, even a rock could be ground into powder.
Lucky for him, his natural ability made his presence weaker than others, otherwise, he would have been detected by Sheng Lang already.
The man claiming to be Sheng Lang circled the area where he was, continuously chopping at the rocks with a knife.
Lucky it was Song Gensheng, with his steel-like bones and iron muscles; the blade could not harm him!
Any other person would have been killed by the chopping already.
Just when Sheng Lang was about to leave, Sheng Lang approached.
“What’s the situation? Have you found anything?”
“Reporting to Your Excellency, there’s no one here. I’ve chopped all over the place with my knife and found nothing out of the ordinary!”
“Oh.” Sheng Lang took another step forward, his voice as cold as millennia-old ice.

“We must eradicate all evil!”
In an instant, an imposing force loomed like a towering mountain, and the world around seemed to fall silent all at once.
Song Gensheng felt the sound of the waves and the wind becoming more and more distant, gradually turning into a void.
With no sound in his ears and darkness seemingly flowing into his mind, his consciousness was slowly being engulfed.
Although he knew this was not a good sign, he stayed silent, as if he truly were a stone.
Finally, at the last clear moment of consciousness, Song Gensheng heard Sheng Lang’s voice saying they were heading back.
Completely exhausted, he finally closed his eyes and passed out completely.
At the same time, Qi Yue, who was in her space, suddenly felt an indescribable anxiety.
It seemed as if something had happened!
She tried to wait patiently for half the time it takes for a cup of tea to brew, but she couldn’t sit still any longer and immediately came out of the space.
“Hei Lie!”
Hei Lie appeared at the door in response, “Mistress, the Marquis has not returned yet.”
“I know,” Qi Yue said anxiously as she pulled open the door, “I have a bad feeling. Go to the seaside immediately and check it out.”
Hei Lie was silent for a moment, not moving.
