Lost at Sea

1.

Mo Yao is a pirate. Rumor has it that the face behind his silver mask is exceptionally handsome, inspiring longing in all who hear of it. Yet his methods are brutally ruthless, making people keep their distance.

He seems quite satisfied with his life as it is.

One moment he's sunbathing on deck and sipping red wine, and the next he's intercepting a merchant ship to conduct business at no cost.

His one unfulfilled goal in life is to take down his mysterious rival, Yu Zhanzhi, and rule these waters alone.

But he has his own troubles.

If Yu Zhanzhi is a thorn in his side, then his dual personality is a thorn lodged in his throat: impossible to talk about, and impossible to remove.

Mo Yao: "What happened to the thing I put in the safe yesterday?"

Underling: "You invited all the young masters and ladies around here last night and gave them a lot of money. You also gave the Tears of Loya to that dancer, saying his waist was so good at swaying that he deserved it."

Mo Yao: "...Oh. I suddenly forgot."

His second personality! That damn coquettish minx!

Mo Yao ground his teeth in secret.

2.

Strange events unfold one after another, and secrets hidden beneath the deep sea gradually rise to the surface. In a trench thousands of meters below, the God of Darkness slowly opens his eyes.

Mo Yao is caught in a loop he cannot escape.

An ancient city beneath the sea, a misty forest on the surface, a ghost ship that disappeared, an isolated island no one can ever leave...

Only by setting aside their feud and joining forces with Yu Zhanzhi can he turn the tide and find the one path to survival.

"Was it you who came into my room last night?" Yu Zhanzhi stood very close, as if holding him in his arms, his hot breath brushing against his ear.

Coquettish minx!

Seeing Mo Yao's dark expression and silence, Yu Zhanzhi raised an eyebrow. "Hmm?"

"Try saying something crazy again." A dagger pressed against Yu Zhanzhi's chest.

"He said your heat from differentiation is coming soon, and that you'll need my help..."

The next moment, the dagger slipped from Mo Yao's hand, and he was pinned in Yu Zhanzhi's embrace.

Yu Zhanzhi's voice was low and husky, his movements gentle, but his eyes betrayed his excitement, like a wild wolf watching prey he'd long coveted.

"...It would be my pleasure to serve you."
