Exiled to a Desert Island: The Convict's Wife Gathers Seafood and Raises a God of War Who Rules the Seas

In her previous life, Su Xi drowned in the depths of the sea. When she opens her eyes again, she has become a convict slave exiled to a lonely island.

On the dock, more than a dozen women wait to be chosen by the naval forces. Those selected may become wives; those passed over will be sent to the rear camp and won't live out the year.

Everyone wants to marry the gentle, literate bookkeeper. Su Xi alone sets her sights on the most fearsome, poorest, and toughest man in the water stronghold: Huo Yuanzhou.

The others laugh at her for being crazy.

Huo Yuanzhou is covered in scars, so poor his family can barely afford to eat, and capable of emptying a whole pot in one meal. He even rejects her in front of everyone. “I can't afford to support a woman.”

Su Xi steps forward and looks him straight in the eye. “I don't need you to support me. You keep the wind and waves at bay and kill the pirates. I'll make sure your whole family eats well.”

Everyone waits for her to regret it.

But they don't know that in her previous life, Su Xi was a marine ranching engineer, and after being reborn, she awakened the power to command the sea.

The nearby waters have been stripped bare?

She steps onto the shore, and fills bamboo baskets with clams, green crabs, abalone, and sea cucumbers.

A storm cuts off their food supply?

She grows kelp, raises oysters, brews fish sauce, and cultivates ocean farms, turning the barren island into a granary at sea.

Pirates are closing in?

Schools of fish guide her way, giant turtles carry her cargo, and ink-scaled sharks flip the enemy ships!

Those who once laughed at her for choosing a poor, unlucky man watch helplessly as the Huo family gets enough to eat, grows rich, and earns a general's title.

The Sea-Calming Divine General, whose name strikes fear into pirates, treats her like the apple of his eye.

But no one knows that if Su Xi's secrets of reading tides, commanding beasts, and predicting storms are exposed, what comes her way may be more than riches:

It may be a monstrous tidal wave powerful enough to swallow the entire island of Qingyu.
