The salty sea water, the clear blue sky, a few seagulls flying high in the air, and occasionally a few hollow and high-pitched bird calls lingering above Jacob Island.

Ya'an was naked from the waist up, revealing a body that although still a little green, was already quite strong and lean. The animal skin was wrapped around her waist, and her two straight and powerful long legs were straddling the canoe. Her bulging arms grabbed

With a slight swing of the oar, the boat swooped far away from the shore like an arrow off the string.

"Ya'an──! Don't stay outside for too long!" The tribesmen on the side who were already preparing to return shouted loudly, "The Lord of the Storm is angry, and the tide will rise soon. Come back early, you know!"

"That's right! If there's not enough food, go to your uncle's house later." Another tribesman with deep lines on his face said cheerfully, "Now the family depends on you, and there are medicines in the church that you can get for free, so don't be impulsive.

Do you know?"

Hearing those simple and direct words that did not actually contain sarcasm or sharpness, a bright smile appeared on young Ya'an's still immature face. The Chao people waved their hands, "I know──! I'm going to dig some sea pearl clams."

Come back and open it! If you don’t have anything, you can make soup for everyone!”

His family lost his father when he was young, and his mother was responsible for his family's livelihood. However, the residents of Jacob Island all depended on fishing and weaving for a living. Those vampire-like businessmen who came over were never willing to give too high prices, but because

They need to rely on supplies from outside to survive, so they often owe a lot of debt to merchants without knowing it.

The family was already in a difficult situation, but my mother didn’t know how to negotiate business. Previously, because of her good weaving skills, an outside nobleman took a fancy to her and ordered a batch of fabrics for weddings. However, during the acceptance inspection, the businessman said that she had no business.

Flawed, as a result, not only failed to make money, but also lost a lot of money──

Originally, my mother almost lost her eyes because of the weaving of this batch of cloth, but now she asked them to rake it up, and in the end she almost lost her sight because of excessive worry and sadness.

Although the young Ya'an is not yet an adult, he always has a fire burning in his heart. He knows that there must be a broader world outside, and the people on Jacob Island are so nice and their things are so good. Why do people outside always bully them?

What about them?

──Is it because they love peace and don’t like to argue with others, so people think they are easy to bully?

──Is it because no one in their tribe has ever stood up to fight for themselves, so others think they are weak and ride on their heads?

Ya'an has seen dolphins. If they like someone, they will rush up and fight. The winner can ride on the opponent, and more dolphins will be born in a short time.

The young man felt that this was the situation now. People outside felt that the people on Jacob Island were easy to bully. If they just said a few words, everyone would consciously lower their heads just because the other party's ship was tall and had artillery.

"I will never live such a useless life!" Ya'an gritted his teeth. The wild boar tusks wrapped around his neck were quite bright--they were put on him by his father before he died. He hoped that he could be as strong as the wild boar tusks.

Seeing this, it became the strongest wall to protect my mother.

Because the island has no walls, the ruthless waves can shatter the island's borders and attack their living space. Because they do not have strong power or weapons, any outsider can bully them.

Because I wasn't strong enough, I couldn't protect my mother and couldn't get out of this lonely island.

There is a fire burning in the heart of young Ya'an. He hopes that he can become a man upright in the world. He not only wants to protect his mother, but also wants to protect the smiles of his people.

"Excuse me, where is this place?" Just as Ya'an was paddling a canoe in search of sea pearls and clams at the northwest corner of Jacob Island, a hoarse but pleasant voice came from the cliff, "I'm a little lost, can you

Could you please give me some directions? Thank you."

She was a very good-looking woman. Although she was beautiful, she had sharp facial features, and her eyebrows were so deep that Ya'an could feel a bright flame burning out of her body, which was unforgettable at a glance. Her limbs were slender and powerful, and she was wearing a

The young Ya'an wore the simplest yet gorgeous clothes he had ever seen, and wore shoes he had never seen before. His whole person exuded a far more elegant temperament than those noble masters.

Ya'an was sure that he had never seen such a person before, and neither had anyone on the shore.

──I wonder if he is a ranger wandering here?

──If possible, would he have the opportunity to ask the other party for advice on self-defense?

"This is Jacob's Island, sir." The young man stood up awkwardly and gave a clumsy and rough salute to the other party.

──I really shouldn’t be like this. When the church priest was teaching etiquette before, why did he skip class and look for sea pearl clams?

──I wonder if this gentleman will find me too rude and be unwilling to stay on Jacob Island?

"Pfft, I'm not an adult, you're too polite." I saw the beautiful woman jumping down from the cliff, and in the surprised eyes of young Ya'an, she landed steadily on the other side of the canoe like a seabird.

.

The other party didn't even let the canoe rock at all.

You know, even a good sailor like Ya'an, who claims to be more stable when standing on a boat than when standing on the road, can't help but rock with the boat. But this woman has no such trouble at all. She always stands quite calmly.

Stable, even on flat ground!

──The other party must be a powerful person.

──I don’t know whether to accept apprentices or servants?

"The environment here is very good! What are you looking for here?" After Lou Ning was once again thrown into a different world by the consciousness of the universe, he thought that he might meet familiar old friends again.

As a result, she never expected that the consciousness of the universe really did not follow the rules and actually threw her into a completely unfamiliar place. Even the optical network was intermittent, and there was no way to secretly determine the location.

Moreover, this island is actually much larger than Lou Ning thought. If it weren’t for the abundant products, Lou Ning could eat so much for several days and catch up on some sleep, otherwise she would not

I want to make my own ship and go sailing.

Fortunately, she chose to rest earlier, otherwise she wouldn't have been so lucky to meet the boy.

"Jacob Island, what a nice name." Lou Ning has been to countless places, and even the world of Golden Horn is not as natural and simple as this one. It exudes a real and fresh atmosphere from the ground up, "And this island

It feels quite comfortable, you must be a favored person."

There is nothing bad about the Federation, but after all, many cities can only be restored artificially... To be honest, I haven't encountered such a real place in a long time. Lou Ning felt that if it weren't for the fact that he still has a mission,

I even wanted to stay away for a while.

"You, do you really think this place is very good?" Ya'an, a young man, did not expect that the other party would actually like this place. He was so excited that he almost stuttered, "Then, if you are willing to stay here for a while, you are welcome to come to my house.

!”

He rubbed his hands nervously, watching the crystalline sea salt particles slipping from his fingertips and falling on the rough and dim shipboard, and timidly made the most courageous invitation in his life to the mysterious and powerful woman──
