Betrayed by the Succubus, I Raise a Twelve-winged Angel

Chapter 391 - 392: Isabelle Arrives at Soltara

Serena’s prepared ship wasn’t particularly large; it was a typical merfolk coastal fishing vessel.

The ship was slender and streamlined, suitable for maneuvering flexibly in complex sea areas.

For Aster Grant, Alia, Grandpa Turtle, along with Lazuli, Vera, and Snow Maiden, the space was already sufficient.

It’s just that...

Due to the terrifying rumors of Soltara already spreading in Kaelon, no sailors willing to take risks could be recruited.

Thus, the entire ship’s control was completely the responsibility of Serena alone.

However, he had been drifting at sea with his father since childhood, and with his rich experience, he could handle this little ship with ease.

Just as the ship was about to set sail, an unexpected situation occurred.

Serena’s sister——

Lynn, who had just been saved from the brink of death by Snow Maiden, insisted on joining everyone to go to sea despite her weakness.

"Brother, let me go too! My body is already healed!"

Lynn stood on the dock, her eyes firm with a hint of plea.

"I learned to pilot a ship with father since I was young too; I can help you! Together, we can make the ship faster and steadier!"

Upon hearing this, Serena’s face immediately fell, and he sternly refused without hesitation:

"Nonsense! Absolutely not! Don’t you know how dangerous Soltara is?"

"It’s already a stroke of luck that I escaped death the last time! You’ve just recovered, how can you go to such a place to risk your life again?"

"Stay home obediently and wait for my return!"

However, Lynn wasn’t deterred by her brother’s strictness; she turned her gaze to Aster Grant standing at the bow.

"Master Aster! Please allow me to go along! I promise I won’t cause trouble, and I can truly help! I’m begging you!"

Seeing this, Serena hurriedly tried to interject again with anxiety in his expression.

Aster Grant’s gaze lingered on the siblings, Serena and Lynn, for a moment.

He pondered for a while, then slowly spoke:

"Alright, Serena. Let your sister come along."

"With us, we’ll ensure her safety."

Hearing Aster Grant’s words, Serena opened his mouth but finally swallowed his discouraging words.

With Aster Grant’s promise, his sister’s safety was indeed much more assured.

He sighed helplessly, looked at his sister with complex emotions in his eyes, and finally nodded:

"...Yes, Master Aster. Lynn, board the ship, but stay close to me at all times and don’t wander off!"

"Thank you, brother! Thank you, Master Aster!"

Lynn’s face instantly blossomed into joyous radiance as she lightly leapt onto the deck.

Soon, everything was ready.

The sibling duo, Serena and Lynn, cooperated tacitly, raising the sails, untying the ropes, adjusting the direction.

With the sea breeze’s encouragement, this small ship slowly left the docks of Kaelon.

...

Meanwhile.

Isabelle followed her intuition and finally arrived above Soltara.

She stood in mid-air, her golden eyes like the most dazzling stars, indifferently sweeping over the azure world below.

The sea breeze stirred her light golden hair, naturally exuding a faint dragon might around her.

Causing marine creatures within miles to instinctively hide, not daring to show their heads.

However, just as she intended to delve deeper, the scenery of the sea and sky ahead suddenly changed!

The previously clear sky and transparent seawater vanished, replaced by...

A boundless, dense, gray-white fog that seemed never-ending.

This fog seemed alive, rolling, spreading, completely obstructing sight and perception.

Isabelle’s delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly.

This fog made her feel a twinge of displeasure.

She did not like this feeling of being obscured.

Facing this eerie fog barrier capable of confounding ordinary strong individuals, Isabelle’s response was direct.

She didn’t even make any unnecessary movements.

She merely raised her slender, jade-like hand casually and waved gently toward the endless dense fog in front of her.

And yet, this seemingly casual wave invoked the resonance of the Heaven and Earth Laws!

"Whoosh—!"

In an instant, wind and clouds changed color!

Against this absolute power, the bizarre dense fog that had swallowed countless ships...

Dissolved and receded at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Within mere breaths, the once fog-laden sea surface became utterly clear!

Sunlight re-emerged, vast waves, the view opened up brightly!

This miraculous scene deeply shocked a certain existence hidden in the deep ocean.

In the canyon thousands of meters deep, a gigantic, mountain-like Dread Octopus, lurking in darkness, was observing the situation above the sea.

When it saw Isabelle dispel the poisonous fog it painstakingly set up, even Totem Level experts would fear this fog.

Its enormous compound eyes were instantly filled with fear and disbelief!

"How can this be?! What... what existence is this?!"

The ancient octopus’s mind trembled; it sensed an insurmountable gap from this life-level difference of power.

It was strength it absolutely couldn’t contend with!

Escape!

It must escape immediately!

This was the only thought in its mind.

Its massive body tightened, stirring up the seafloor’s mud, eight huge tentacles frantically flailing, trying to hide in deeper trenches.

However, its movements were still too slow.

Above the sea, Isabelle had already discerned everything in the depths.

She glanced lightly at the sea region where the octopus hid and casually extended another hand downward.

"Condense."

As her cool voice sounded, the tens of thousands of tons of seawater seemed to perceive a command.

They instantly coagulated, compressed into a massive, crystalline water hand infused with frightening power.

Penetrating layers of seawater, precisely extracting the giant octopus preparing to flee from the abyss!

"Splash—!"

The gigantic water hand broke through the sea surface, lifting the frantically struggling, panic-screeching Dread Octopus into the air, suspended before Isabelle.

Isabelle hovered in the air, gazing down at the beast like a mere plaything in her grasp.

Her eyes were calm and unruffled, yet carried an awe-inspiring majesty that chilled the soul.

Her red lips parted slightly, her voice icy, directly penetrating the consciousness of the giant beast:

"Why did you lay down this fog, intending to block me?"

The Dread Octopus felt the tangible dragon might and its enormous body trembled.

All its ferocity evaporated, leaving only the most primitive fear.

It dared not have any concealment, hastily responding with trembling spiritual waves:

"Res... respected one, please spare your anger! I... I dare not! I’m only acting on orders!"

"Whose orders? Explain clearly."

Isabelle’s tone was unwavering.

"It’s... it’s the Master Demon Whale! It’s the king of this sea territory!"

"Just recently, beneath the largest ruins of the ancient Oceanic Clan site, an ancient relic suddenly opened!"

"The energy waves emanating from inside are extremely tempting!"

"Now that the Demon Clan has withdrawn, all the powerful sea beasts have been attracted, wanting to compete for treasures and territories inside the relic!"

"Master Demon Whale ordered us subordinates to guard the perimeter!"

"Drive away or eliminate all beings attempting to approach to prevent new competitors!"

"I... I’m only responsible for the fog barrier in this area..."

"I absolutely have no intention to offend you, respected one! Please spare me!"

Ancient Oceanic Clan site?

Ancient relic?

A barely perceptible ripple appeared in Isabelle’s golden eyes.

Her intuition told her that this newly emerged relic might be connected to the answers she sought.

Having received the desired information, Isabelle lost interest in continuing dialogue with this minor player.

She waved her hand, and the gigantic water hand instantly dissolved.

The massive Dread Octopus "whooshed" as it plunged back into the vast ocean.

While around Isabelle, golden light flashed, transforming into the radiant spear-like beam, directly breaking through the water.

Speeding toward the mysterious relic entrance in the deep sea!

Meanwhile, the Dread Octopus, having survived, was filled with apprehension:

"Too terrifying! Dispelling my innate toxic fog with a simple wave, manipulating seawater as easily as moving an arm..."

"Such power, such authority... could it be... could it be the legendary Dragon Clan from Dragon Island?!"

...
