Chapter 1849: Is This a Dream?

Blood flowed down the long nail.

Indescribable pain shot through her heart.

Lan Xiaoni groaned in agony, and blood also flowed down the corners of her lips.

Dazzling light erupted forth from the divine patterns on the surface of the bright blue nail, and the power of absolute will tried to force her into submission and make her give up everything she had.

“Lan Xiaoni, concede to the ocean and you will be granted power, immortality, everything… I will give you another chance to choose…” The Heavenly Liquid God’s voice was like a heavenly decree.

“Hehe, give me ten thousand more chances to choose, and I’ll still stand with Big Boss An Lin and the human race.” Lan Xiaoni raised her chin, and a hint of unyielding determination appeared on her gorgeous features.

“Alright, then die!” The Heavenly Liquid God’s voice turned extremely cold.

“Return everything to the sea.” The Heavenly Mirror God brought its palms together.

The nine massive mirrors suddenly began to glow with scintillating light at the same time.

Boom!

Nine bursts of powerful sealing force stacked on top of one another before crashing down upon Lan Xiaoni, sending her plummeting from the sky and into the frozen ocean, upon which her body pulverized the thick layer of ice and swept up a massive splash.

She fell into the ocean, and everything became silent.

All sound was muffled by the water.

Lan Xiaoni could feel her power of the Heavenly God being sucked away by the nail that had been driven into her heart. This power of the Heavenly Gods had already completely fused together with her body, and if it was to be forcefully extracted, she would perish as a result.

She was going to die.

Lan Xiaoni’s body sank, and she suddenly felt very sleepy. All she wanted to do was to go into a deep, long slumber, and the divine halo of water above her head also began to gradually dim.

Ever since she had decided to oppose the Heavenly Human Tribe, she had mentally prepared herself for death.

However, when she was truly confronted by death, she was still extremely horrified and hoped more than anything else that someone would come to save her.

“Please…

“Please…

“I haven’t even finished writing my will yet…

“I really don’t want to die…”

Tears flowed from Lan Xiaoni’s eyes, merging with the seawater around her.

Only in the final moments of her life did she revert back to the vulnerable crybaby princess that she was.

But even if someone could hear her pleas for help, no one would be able to save her. She was the most powerful being in the West Sea Alliance, so who could she rely on?

Thump…

Her feeble body was suddenly enveloped in a tight hug with one arm behind the small of her back and another under her beautiful fish tail, and her head was rested on a warm, reliable chest.

“Hmm?” Lan Xiaoni forced her eyes open, upon which she was completely dumbstruck by the sight of the man she had been thinking night and day about.

“Hey, Underling Lan, there won’t be any problems if I just pull this nail out of your chest, right?” An Lin asked with a concerned expression.

“Is this a hallucination before my death? This is not bad… Being able to die in your arms is the best way to die that I can think of…” Lan Xiaoni’s eyes were glazed over as she wrapped her arms around An Lin’s neck. “Seeing as this is just a hallucination, let me indulge myself one last time…”

“Hey, wait, this isn’t… hmm…” An Lin’s words were abruptly cut off.

Lan Xiaoni had used up the final reserves of her strength to press her lips against An Lin’s.

It felt so real.

The entire world seemed to have fallen silent.

Within the deep, blue sea, the beautiful mermaid princess closed her eyes and offered a scorching kiss to the man of her dreams prior to her death.

…

Above the ocean.

The Heavenly Liquid God and the Heavenly Mirror God’s expressions shifted drastically.

“Who’s down there?”

“Crap! My power has been dispelled!”

“Could it be that Lan Xiaoni struggled free from the Deep Sea Burial Nail?”

“Impossible! I can sense that it’s still embedded in her body!”

The conversation between the two Heavenly Gods reached Lan Xiaoni’s ears.

She felt like something wasn’t quite right, and she drew her head back before opening her eyes to stare blankly at the man before her.

“You… you’re real?” Lan Xiaoni’s heart thumped violently, sending sharp pain running through her wounded heart, and she winced as she gritted her teeth.

An Lin was a little dumbstruck. “Underling Lan, you don’t have to give me such an enthusiastic welcome just for saving your life.”

Lan Xiaoni’s face immediately flushed red.

Crack…

Perhaps it was because she was too excited, but a crack appeared on her divine halo of water.

“Tell me what I need to do to save you! Can I just pull this nail out of your body?” An Lin could sense the precursor for the Heavenly God’s demise from Lan Xiaoni’s body.

“Yes, this nail saps away at my power of the Heavenly God, so just pull it out of my chest!” Lan Xiaoni’s voice was quite feeble.

An Lin immediately reached for the nail, which was shimmering with the light of countless divine symbols.

However, when he tried to extricate the nail, he sensed an extremely vast power resisting him, as if he was fighting against the power of a boundless, immovable ocean.

“Leave the nail alone, you impudent swine!”

“Die!”

Two enraged roars erupted overhead.

Sharp bursts of liquid shot through the seawater toward An Lin while countless mirrors appeared in the air, sending massive sealing power crashing down upon An Lin’s body.

“You think trash like you can stop me?” An Lin harrumphed coldly as he summoned both his divine halos and dao jade to keep the attacks of the two Heavenly Gods at bay.

At the same time, five types of powers of the Heavenly Gods gathered on his fingertip as he clamped down upon the nail embedded on Lan Xiaoni’s chest before pulling it out in one quick motion!

Spurt!

The nail was pulled out of Lan Xiaoni’s chest.

“Ah…” Lan Xiaoni tried to stay strong, but she still let loose an involuntary cry of pain.

“Sinister objects like these must be completely destroyed.”

An Lin exerted even more force upon the nail and crushed it into a million pieces.

“No…”

“Curse you!”

The wrath of the two Heavenly Gods erupted forth, making space tremor and quake.

After having the nail extricated from her chest, Lan Xiaoni’s aura was slowly recovering, and the crack on her divine halo had already healed over.

“Thank you, Big Boss An Lin. Thank you for saving me,” Lan Xiaoni said with genuine gratitude.

She had thought that she was dead for sure, but An Lin had saved her once again at the most critical moment. She still felt like she was in a dream.

“The underling has already done so much, so it’s my job to protect my underling now.” An Lin smiled.

A vibrant smile appeared on Lan Xiaoni’s face. “You’re the best Big Boss ever!”
