A weak and evil woman was exiled? The beastly husbands risked their lives to protect her

Chapter 366 She can only be devoured by him!
Jiang Xinli subconsciously pulled her hand back. "Lancer, I can walk by myself."

“No.” Lancer tightened his grip on her hand, his gaze inadvertently sweeping over the high-grade royal water-repelling bead on her chest, which shimmered with a dark purple light. His handsome brows furrowed slightly.

“Miss Xinli, the polluted areas near the deep sea territory are more dangerous than you imagine.”

If she wore his water-repelling beads, she could travel almost freely in all polluted deep-sea areas.

But this water-repelling pearl belongs to Prince Yunbo.
“I know the contaminated area is dangerous, but holding hands makes it even more inconvenient to kill those mutated beasts,” Jiang Xinli said, then teased him, “Do you think being held by your hand will reduce the danger?”

"Hmm, more or less." Lancer glanced down at her, smiled handsomely, and gracefully waved his long, slender fingers.

"Whoosh—" A streak of blue aurora flashed by.

Glaciers, snow-capped mountains, lakes, and sea crystal flowers have all disappeared.

What came into Jiang Xinli's view was a small patch of clean sand shimmering with a pale blue light.

Not far away, waves were rolling in.

Further away lies a transparent barrier that marks the boundary of the deep-sea territory.

Jiang Xinli held her breath. "Lancer, your energy dream-making is amazing!"

Lancer's lips curled into a smile as he leaned down, adopting the expression of a well-behaved puppy seeking praise from its owner. "Really? How amazing are you?"

Jiang Xinli said truthfully, "She's very beautiful, ethereal, and real."

“Because they are real things.” Lancer smiled gently at her and said, “Glaciers, snow-capped mountains, sea crystal flowers, and lakes were all transported from other parts of Ocean Star by me using my energy.”

However, my energy color is glacial blue, so the transparent glacier was incidentally colored as well.

Jiang Xinli held her breath. "You mean, Ocean Star has land, snow-capped mountains, and glaciers? It's not entirely covered by ocean?"

Lancer shook his head. "No, they are all on the seabed. It's just that to get to these places, you have to pass through many polluted areas."

“But these are things that only exist on land—” Jiang Xinli said thoughtfully.
"Could it be that Ocean Star once had a lot of land, but after it was submerged by the ocean, these landforms were protected underwater by some force?"

"Perhaps." Lancer smiled, taking her hand and walking towards the border of the deep-sea territory. "Ready to venture into the contaminated zone, my dear Miss Heart Pear?"

"Okay." Jiang Xinli took a deep breath.

The moment you pass through the barrier, a strong, putrid stench, carrying the smell of rust, hits you.

The pristine white sand beach has disappeared.

What comes into view is black gravel covered with silt, animal remains, and white bones.

Rotten seaweed and whitish, fluffy carrion floated among them.

At first glance, it's disgusting, eerie, and terrifying.

Jiang Xinli felt a chill on her back.

But when she thought about how she would have to cross the polluted deep-sea area alone to reach the Holy Tomb, she gritted her teeth and quickly calmed down.

but--

She glanced back at the Deep Sea Territory. "Is the border of the Deep Sea Territory undefended?"

Realizing she wasn't used to the smell, Lancer flicked his finger, and a transparent, humanoid energy bubble enveloped the girl's body.

A faint glacial blue glow lingers on the bubbles, along with a subtle lemongrass scent.

The unpleasant smell disappeared instantly.

Jiang Xinli looked up at the thoughtful dolphin knight, "Thank you, Lancer."

“You’re welcome,” he explained. “In the deep-sea territory, the edge barrier is a very powerful first line of defense. However, my identity allows me to freely move between the inside and outside of the barrier.”

"As for you—" He pointed lightly to her chest, his eyes darkening, "it's because of this water-repelling pearl, of course."

"Oh." Jiang Xinli felt relieved.

Sheng Tianze and his group also entered the deep-sea polluted area by passing through the barrier.

But there are dedicated routes.

Areas that can be entered or exited are guarded by designated personnel.

This is why they have to take a detour to reach a certain area.

Now, Jiang Xinli and Lanse can clearly reach each other directly through the border.

As long as she stays close to the boundary, even if she encounters a mutated beast with a high level of ability, she can easily cross into the deep-sea territory and quickly gain protection using the territory's barrier. As if guessing what she was thinking, Lancer reminded her, "With Prince Yunbo's water-repelling pearl, although you can enter and exit the barrier at any time..."

However, if a deadly danger is detected outside, the barrier may increase its defense level and become one-way open.

Therefore, we still need to be careful later.

Jiang Xinli was taken aback. "But this is Prince Yunbo's water-repelling pearl. Wasn't the barrier of the deep sea territory set up by him?"

Lancer knew she was testing him and smiled. "No."

Jiang Xinli asked curiously, "Who is that?"

As she casually asked questions, she was quickly recalling the map drawn by Xue Qianxun in her mind.

Once the location was determined, she discovered that the closest place to the two of them was the biological gene laboratory.

Lancer said, "I'm sorry, Miss Xinli, I don't know either. This barrier has existed since I was old enough to remember things."

Jiang Xinli pressed further, "Did it exist a thousand years ago?"

Lancer paused, then gently flicked her nose with his long, slender fingers, smiling indulgently.
“Miss Xinli, if you continue to press the matter, the mutated beast may very well come looking for us.”

He leaned down and whispered through gritted teeth in her ear, "You can only be eaten by me, they won't allow it."

Jiang Xinli's ears turned red, but she felt that what he said sounded strange.

"One last question?"

"Ah."

"The barrier can only be passed through in one direction. If His Highness Yunbo is attacked by the pollutants, does that mean the barrier will not be open to him either?"

Lancer said, "Prince Yunbo's ability level is very high; ordinary attacks from pollutants are ineffective against him."

"Furthermore, the water-repelling pearl works better on a male sea creature than on someone else." Lancer finished speaking, then bent down, passed through the transparent bubble, and gently kissed her cheek.
"Miss Xinli, we're not having a date in a polluted deep-sea area right now, so from now on, you must be extremely careful and stick close to me, understand?"

In Lancer's heart, having her by his side was like a date.

Even though this is a dangerous and polluted deep-sea area.

"it is good."

The two walked quickly across the underwater ruins, their fingers intertwined.

With the water-repelling pearl, Jiang Xinli felt as if she were on flat ground, her feet resting on the silt and sand of the seabed.

Despite the thick black fog and strange, dense dust particles floating around her, her vision remained clear.

After walking for a while, Jiang Xinli quietly released five scarlet dodder vines.

The vines spread outwards in all 360 degrees.

She looked around warily, sensing everything with her heart.

Soon, the coolness unique to metal buildings wafted over from the end of a dodder vine.

Jiang Xinli pointed to the right, "Let's go this way."

"Okay." Lancer smiled and led her there.

The glacial blue rune on his forehead suddenly glowed faintly.

A high-frequency sound wave, imperceptible to ordinary people, spread out silently.
