The other party's tone made Ye Yun somewhat concerned.
He had been thinking about taking the other party as a disciple, which was one of the conditions for leaving this place.
Moreover, Xiao Meng was also quite appealing to him, and he really wanted to take her as a disciple.
The Sea Goddess's reaction now made Ye Yun ask.
"Taking her as a disciple, is there a problem?"
"Of course, there is a problem."
The Sea Goddess looked at the sleeping Xiao Meng and slowly explained.
"She is the future Demon God, very likely to become a threat to this region."
"If you take her as your disciple, you will inevitably encounter some trouble in the future."
He thought it would be something formidable, but upon hearing this, Ye Yun breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as Xiao Meng herself didn't have any fatal issues, he wasn't too worried.
Therefore, upon hearing the other party's words, Ye Yun replied with a smile.
"If it's just this, senior, you don't need to worry."
"I will take good care of her and prevent her from becoming a threat to this region. As for the potential trouble, let it come."
Besides, Ye Yun didn't care much about these things.
Also, he had no choice. Otherwise, wanting to leave this place would truly be an endless wait.
Thus, the problem raised by the other party was basically within his tolerance.
She might become a Demon God, but as long as he took good care of her, ensured she was positive, optimistic, and kind-hearted, she couldn't suddenly become a Demon God, right?
As for trouble, he cared even less. Along his journey, he had encountered an absurd amount of trouble, and he was already used to it.
Seeing his affirmation, the Sea Goddess showed a smile for the first time.
"Good. Since that's the case, you can take her as your disciple. You indeed possess the qualifications."
As a mother, at least she herself was quite approving of Ye Yun.
Entrusting her daughter to him, she was basically at ease.
Upon hearing this, Ye Yun raised an eyebrow, looked at his surroundings, and asked.
"Before that, shouldn't we discuss what exactly is going on here?"
With gods and Demon Gods all around, Ye Yun's mind was a bit overwhelmed.
What kind of place was this, and who was this Sea Goddess…
But the Sea Goddess did not answer, and instead asked a question.
" Do the God Cities still exist outside now? Or rather, what has become of the God Cities?"
"Uh…"
The other party's question caught Ye Yun somewhat by surprise.
What had become of the God Cities? He himself wanted to know, who knew what the God Cities were like now.
He could only helplessly inform the Sea Goddess of some of the rumors he knew, and briefly explain the matter of the Celestial Gate.
Originally, he had actually hoped to ask about the entrance to the God City through this person who called herself a god.
But the Sea Goddess only wore a wistful expression.
"It seems it has come to this. I wonder what the final fate of the Celestial Domain and the God Cities will be…"
Ye Yun's brows twitched, and he couldn't help but ask.
"From your tone, could it be that you know things within the God Cities?"
He couldn't find out from Ning Qianqin, he wondered how this Sea Goddess would respond.
Hearing this, she paused and said with a faint smile.
"I do know. Although it was brief, I once lived there for a thousand years."
A thousand years was brief?
Ye Yun's mouth twitched, and he couldn't bear to imagine how terrifying the Sea Goddess's true age was.
But that wasn't important now; the key was what he wanted to know.
"What is it like inside the God City? Are there any special features?"
Ye Yun's desire to understand that land of faith for all gods was now extremely urgent.
And the Sea Goddess seemed to have a tacit understanding with Ning Qianqin.
She looked at Ye Yun and chuckled.
"What it's like inside, you will naturally understand when you arrive there one day."
"For you, that place might be considered a paradise…"
Compared to Ning Qianqin, she had somewhat described it.
Ye Yun raised an eyebrow and asked, "Senior, what do you mean by that? Is that place special to me?"
"No, that place is the least special to you."
The Sea Goddess's lips curled up as she smiled.
"But precisely because of this, it is special."
The logic was a bit convoluted, but Ye Yun had roughly figured it out.
According to her, it seemed that the God City was a very unique existence for others, a special place.
But this place was not special to him, and it was precisely because of this that it was even more unique…
Hmm…
Ye Yun pondered for a moment and finally gave his judgment.
Can't figure it out, next…
At this moment, the Sea Goddess spoke again.
"Then, let our idle chat end here. You will take her away from here shortly."
"She has been here for so long, it's time she saw the outside world. I hope you can let her experience the beauty of the outside world."
Ye Yun was unsure if "here" referred to this ruin or the Endless Sea.
In comparison, there was a more important matter…
"Wait, senior, what about you? Aren't you coming with us?"
Hearing this, the Sea Goddess smiled and explained.
"As for me, I perished long ago. What you see now is merely a wisp of consciousness projected from my Sea Godhead."
Although Ye Yun didn't quite understand what she meant by Godhead, he understood one fact.
The Sea Goddess before him had died countless years ago.
Seeing her body truly begin to fade, Ye Yun anxiously asked.
"Wait, at least tell me, what exactly happened here?!"
"Xiao Meng will tell you everything."
Finally, the Sea Goddess's expression softened.
Looking at Xiao Meng sleeping on the ground, she said with a light smile.
"Everything in this world, you will understand completely the moment you step into the God City."
"After that, please take good care of her for me, and ensure her happiness…"
As her voice faded, before Ye Yun could say anything else.
The Sea Goddess's delicate body completely turned into an illusion, eventually becoming a crystal resembling a Rubik's Cube.
"This… this is…"
Seeing the blue crystal, which resembled a Rubik's Cube, Ye Yun's gaze froze.
This was because he had seen something similar before.
That was on the Void Sea, where he and his wife Xing Wu had seen the 'treasure' wrapped in a green storm!
Was this the Godhead mentioned by the Sea Goddess?!
As he was stunned, the blue Sea Godhead flew directly towards Xiao Meng's body and quickly merged into her.
"Fused?"
Ye Yun frowned and couldn't help but activate his Heavenly Mandate Eye, intending to see if her condition had changed.
His expression became more and more interesting upon looking.
