Chapter 125 No martial ethics
With Jinlong leading the way, things became much simpler.

However, the result brought back by Jinlong was not good. The orca was one of the Four Fiends, and its strength was formidable. In addition, Si Lan himself had not yet recovered, so Si Lan's condition was very bad. Even if he was separated from the orca, he would probably need to rest and catch up before he could recover.

This was indeed not good news for Shang Xingjian. Shang Xingjian lowered his eyes and said, "But there isn't enough time."

Cheng Mai heard it clearly, but didn't understand what it meant, so he asked, "What?"

"It's nothing, let's save people first." Shang Xingjian quickly composed himself, as if he hadn't said those words at all.

Cheng Mai was puzzled and curious, but she didn't ask any more questions; the priority now was to save lives.

According to Jinlong's description, to save Silan, it is necessary to separate him from the orca. The main problem is that the orca has been fighting with him for so many years, so how can we lure the orca out?

The merchant briefly entered Si Lan's consciousness, but if he forcibly entered and angered the orca, the orca would most likely choose to fight to the death as well.

"Actually, we can let Mr. Cheng go in. After all, every ferocious beast in the world is terrified of the God of Wisdom," Jinlong suggested. He just didn't know if Boss Shang would be willing to let him go.

Cheng Mai looked at Shang Xingjian after hearing this and also felt that this was a good idea, although it was a bit risky.

Merchant Jian frowned. It was a good idea, but also an unsafe one.

Si Lan's consciousness is locked within the orca, and they are currently in a state of evenly matched struggle. If the orca is truly determined to fight to the death, he can escape, but Cheng Mai may not be able to.

“I think we can give it a try,” Cheng Mai said. Although she didn’t know what Shang Xingjian was planning, finding these people was definitely something Shang Xingjian needed to do urgently.

"What do you think?" Shang Xingjian glanced at Cheng Mai.

Cheng Mai glanced back at Shang Xingjian, as if to say, "What do I think you don't know?"
Cheng Mai is as stubborn as a donkey, and Shang Xingjian knows this better than anyone.

Shang Xingjian muttered a curse under his breath. Jinlong looked away, feeling that this place was not suitable for a third person.

Who exactly spread the rumor that Genga Shinjun and Wisdom Shinjun were at odds?

Is this discord?
His eyes were practically drooling!
Shang Xingjian cursed her for her temper, but after thinking it over, he still agreed to her request.

It seems they were afraid of her stubborn temper.

Si Lan's spiritual space is vast, like an endless sea. Finding Si Lan and the orca here will not be an easy task.

The merchant was standing on a small boat, which was moving forward relatively steadily.

Looking at the boundless blue sea, Cheng Mai didn't feel comfortable; in fact, he found it somewhat dazzling.

The shopkeeper added a layer of defense in front of her, which made her eyes feel a little more comfortable.

"How am I supposed to find something in such a big place?" Cheng Mai thought her divine sense was just a small area, and no one had told her that divine sense could be an ocean.

Thinking of this, Cheng Mai became curious and looked at Shang Xingjian, "What is your divine sense like?"

Shang Xingjian glanced at her indifferently, "You wouldn't want to know."

"What about mine?" Cheng Mai thought, remembering that her mission was to subdue demonic beasts. "They won't all be demons and monsters, will they?"

That's disgusting.

"You have a vivid imagination." This can be considered a denial.

Cheng Mai could still accept it. Suddenly, ripples appeared on the sea beneath their feet. Shang Xingjian steered the small boat to a stop, squinting slightly as he looked at the void ahead.

“Hiding is pointless. Now that I’m here, I have no intention of letting you go.” Shang Xingjian put his hands behind his back, looked down at the ripples at his feet, and said in a deep voice, “Orca, if you come out now, you might still be able to win a sliver of your soul to remain in the world.”

The ripples beneath our feet gradually widened.

"I might be able to fool others with what you're saying, but do you think I'm a fool?" An aged voice came from the soles of his feet, like the voice of an old man in his eighties.

"The destruction of heaven and earth is a foregone conclusion. Why can't we act as we please? Why should we be bound by you?" The voice continued, but it seemed to have moved a little further away.

Shang Xingjian kept staring at the ripple, and naturally listened to the orca's words as well. "The destruction of heaven and earth is a matter of heaven and earth, but if you want to act recklessly and cause harm to living beings, as long as heaven and earth have not been destroyed, you will not be allowed to act so recklessly."

As soon as Shang Xingjian finished speaking, he struck down with a palm. The sea churned, and in the midst of the entanglement, Cheng Mai was pushed to the side. She could only see two golden lights binding a black mist.

Perhaps because they were moving so fast, Cheng Mai couldn't see them at all.

One of the golden lights, appearing and disappearing, should be the Divine Lord Silan.

Cheng Mai stood still, his gaze following the golden light, the cursed bell on his wrist swaying slightly, indicating that something was amiss.

Cheng Mai raised his wrist and watched the Beast-Binding Bell vibrate, probably because it sensed the presence of the ferocious beast.

Cheng Mai tried to control the Soul-Binding Bell, but she had no memory of how to use it, so she could only wait and see who would prevail between Shang Xingjian and the Orca.

Cheng Mai sat cross-legged on the flatboat, shaking the curse bell in his hand, and resting his chin on his hand as he looked at the people who were fighting. "Shang Xingjian, how much longer are you going to fight?"

Cheng Mai didn't know how long she had been sitting, but she was certain that she was getting sleepy.

The people on the other end didn't respond to her, but the pace of the fight seemed to have slowed down.

Even a small portion of the black energy rushed towards Cheng Mai, only to be intercepted outside the barrier.

Cheng Mai raised his eyelids slightly, watched the black mist dissipate, sighed, and seemed to think that there was nothing more to say.

However, after the black mist dissipated, the orca suddenly concentrated all its strength and rushed towards Cheng Mai. It was so fast that Shang Xingjian did not have time to return before Cheng Mai was knocked more than ten meters away.

It felt as if his internal organs had been crushed and pulverized. Cheng Mai lay on the flatboat, clutching his chest, and it took him a moment to realize that he had been attacked.

"Wise God, I never thought you'd end up like this?" The orca transformed into its human form, a colossal creature looking down at Cheng Mai. As Shang Xingjian rushed over to help Cheng Mai up, it burst into laughter. "It seems today is the day I get my revenge."

Its tail was only half, as if someone had cut it off. It thrashed its tail, and the space of its consciousness began to vibrate.

Shang Xingjian channeled spiritual energy into Cheng Mai's body to repair her internal organs.

"Orca, if you destroy your divine consciousness, you will die too."

"With three supreme gods dying alongside me, my death was worthwhile," the orca laughed. "The God of Wisdom is now nothing more than a mere mortal; what can he do to me?"

Cheng Mai was in excruciating pain, but upon hearing this, he still managed to spare some energy to look at Shang Xingjian. "You actually couldn't kill him?"

Shang Xingjian slapped her head and pressed it against his chest, "Shut up."

He could, but his methods would be no gentler than Cheng Mai's. If he were to make a move, he would destroy the entire sea of ​​consciousness, which would be tantamount to burying both Si Lan and Cheng Mai here.
