After entering Nanhai City, Lu Heng and Xiao Ai went to the post office in front of the Fire God Temple to register.
Before leaving Fushan City, the wizard presented a pass token to allow Lu Heng to pass freely in the Fire Pass Country.
Huo Feng carried the head of the water beast killed by Xiao Ai and went to the Fire God Temple to collect the reward.
After Lu Heng took out the pass token given by the wizard of Fushan City, he was led to a secluded courtyard.
As for Wuzhu in Nanhai City, Lu Heng didn't plan to pay a visit.
After Huo Feng received the reward, he would go to the port to find a ship going to sea as soon as possible, and go to the South Mermaid Kingdom.
Now that the beginning of winter has passed, the rare treasure conference of the Mermaid Kingdom is about to be held. Lu Heng didn't want to delay any longer.
As for the hustling and bustling of Nanhai City, he could enjoy it when they returned.
After carrying the head of the beast into the Fire God Temple, Huo Feng soon got the reward.
But when Huo Feng came back, he brought a bad news.
"Lord Wolf!"
As soon as he stepped into the yard arranged by the post house, Huo Feng said excitedly, "I have contacted the ship to go to sea, and it will go to sea tomorrow morning. Just…"
"Just?" Lu Heng, who was teaching Xiao Ai water control method, looked up in surprise and asked, "Just what?"
Huo Feng sighed and said, "Recently, there has been trouble in the South Sea, and the sailors are unwilling to go to sea. Therefore, I can only find an empty ship half rented and half bought, and I will take charge of the steering."
Lu Heng was a little surprised by Huo Feng's story, "You can even drive a ship?"
Huo Feng smiled, scratched his head and said, "A little… a little…"
Lu Heng shook his head and was too lazy to say more.
He asked, "What is the so-called unrest? Aren't there a lot of ships and caravans going to sea in Nanhai City? Why does no one dare to go to sea now?"
Huo Feng explained, "It's not that no one dares to go to sea. The big caravans and ships are basically unaffected, and their itinerary is still the same. It's just that those small businessmen are not willing to go to sea without the protection of cultivators, so they can't hire people."
Huo Feng said, "As for the reason why small businessmen didn't want to go to sea, was related to the rumored [Erba God Man] in the South Sea."
"Oh? [Erba God Man]?" Lu Heng was a little interested, "[Erba God Man]… what is it? Why can it scare these businessmen?"
Huo Feng had long been used to Lu Heng's "Ignorance".
Now, Huo Feng was relieved to see that Lu Heng didn't know the legendary [Erba God Man]. Since the Wolf God didn't know it, it must not have been a powerful existence in ancient times.
He smiled and said, "It's a rumor outside the South Sea."
"I don't know when it started. It's said that there is a supernatural being in the South Sea, named Erba God Man. Its cultivation base is very high and its supernatural power is so strong that no one dares to provoke it in the South Sea."
"But there are different versions of his specific image."
"It is said that the Erba God Man is a sea demon with 16 arms and 16 pairs of eyes."
"It is also said that the Erba God Man actually consists of sixteen brothers and sisters, each of whom have mastered a strong ability."
Huo Feng said different rumors one at a time, but all of them had one thing in common.
——That is, that the Erba God Man was super strong, and wherever it went, it would be followed by ghosts and evil entities creating chaos.
He didn't know whether it was the appearance of the Erba God Man that lead to chaos or the appearance of evil things that would attract the Erba God Man。
Many fishermen in Nanhai City didn't want to go too far out to sea because of the legend of the Erba God Man, and water demons were also rampant at sea during this time.
Such chaos may not be serious for those big caravans escorted by cultivators.
But for those ordinary people, any evil thing could bring ultimate disaster to them, so they didn't want to go out to sea.
Lu Heng also understood the situation after hearing Huo Feng's explanation.
"So in the South Sea currently, there are evil demons and water demons wreaking havoc?" Lu Heng asked.
Huo Feng nodded, and then smiled, "But those water demons are not too strong, so don't worry too much. As long as we don't bump into the legendary Erba God Man, this trip will not dangerous."
"Of course, even if we do encounter the legendary Erba God Man, they would have to run away after seeing the Wolf God."
Huo Feng said with a smile.
In Huo Feng's heart at that moment, the Wolf God was one of the strongest existences in the world.
Even the legendary Zhu Jiuyou was scared away for several miles by the Wolf God's sword. Who else could do that in this world?
If someone told Huo Feng at this time that the Wolf God was invincible even in ancient times, he would not be surprised, but would repeatedly nod his head.
Lu Heng felt amused, shook his head, and said, "Brother Huo, you are really confident in me… Ha…"
"Anyway, although there are many rumors regarding the Erba God Man, the rumors say that it does not like killing. Although this might seem strange, it might not actually be an evil entity."
"We don't need to worry too much even if we bump into him."
"There is nothing in this world that can't be solved by communication," Lu Heng said with a smile.
Huo Feng also nodded in agreement.
"Yes, there is nothing unreasonable in this world. Everything can be solved by communication."
Who dares to be unreasonable in front of the Wolf God!
If the so-called Erba God Man encountered the Wolf God and it's really was an evil demon, then the Wolf God would definitely kill it.
In this way, with strong confidence, Huo Feng slept in the post house all night, and then set out the next morning, taking Lu Heng and Xiao Ai to the port.
The Bo horse who didn't want to take the ship fought hard and wanted to stay on the shore until Huo Feng came back, but it was still dragged away by Huo Feng.
There was a lot of luggage that needed to be carried by it!
When they arrived at the Mermaid Kingdom, they would need to walk ashore.
Without the Bo horse, Huo Feng would have to carry the luggage himself. How could he let this laborer go?
