As Shangguan Xuanyi struggled in the water, clutching the young boy, he could only think of Xiao'er's words, "We're in serious trouble!"

The boy he was trying to rescue had instead dragged him into danger too!

With one arm wrapped around the boy, Shangguan Xuanyi swam towards the shore with all his strength.

Giant waves crashed onto them, relentlessly battering their bodies. Shangguan Xuanyi felt as if his body was about to fall apart, mocked by the violent sea.

A few times, he almost lost his grip and let go of the boy.

"This won't do!" Remembering the spatial ring Xiao'er gave him, he tried to enter it to avoid the waves, but he couldn't.

Was it because he was carrying another person? Or because they were in the middle of the water?

Thinking about how the sea water might flood into the armor if he entered it, Shangguan Xuanyi was somewhat relieved that he couldn't enter the space.
