The massive luxury cruise ship far off was also continuously tilting and swaying. As for these two smaller yachts, they were even more unsteady. Like horses suddenly galloping wildly after being sharply whipped, they were driven swiftly toward the deep sea by the powerful typhoon. Ah! How could the delicate bodies of Gao Ruolan and her three companions withstand such fierce winds and waves? They fell to the deck, unable to raise their heads. The towering waves lifted the yachts high into the air, then, losing their balance, they plunged back down onto the sea surface, quickly filling with water. All four of them drank several mouthfuls of salty seawater and began to vomit. Oh no! A large hole had opened in the hull, and more seawater kept pouring into the cabin, causing all four to scream in panic. A massive wave surged forward and capsized the yacht. All four were thrown into the cold sea water. In the moment of despair and helplessness, Gao Liang maneuvered his boat and arrived. Zhao Yuanhang, Fan Weizhe, and Zuo Tianpei then pulled Zhang Xiaoli, Chen Yanling, and Li Qin Yun up onto the boat.
When they went up to pull Lan Gao higher, they were surprised to find that Gao Lan didn't grasp their hands—instead, a massive wave surged over them and submerged her. Everyone was deeply concerned about Gao Lan. Gao Liang, who was skilled in swimming, asked Zhao Yuanhang to operate the boat while he himself dove straight into the deep sea. After all, Gao Liang was a reincarnated deity from the Light God's lineage, once the celestial marshal Tian Peng, renowned for his mastery of water. In no time, he located Gao Lan underwater, moving like a fish in the deep sea, gently pressing her body with his head and rising toward the surface. Just as he reached the side of the boat, F3 members worked together to lift Gao Lan onto the boat, finally exhaling in relief. The boat, battered by the strong typhoon, was driven far out to sea and eventually stranded on a small island. F4 laid Zhang Xiaoli, Chen Yanling, Li Qin Yun, and the four unconscious passengers—Gao Lan among them—flat on the sandy shore. As Gao Liang gently rocked them back and forth, Gao Lan was the first to awaken.
Zhang Xiaoli and Chen Yanling also woke up one after another, but Liang Qin Yun remained unconscious. The F4 members took turns pressing on her chest to perform artificial respiration, but it wasn't working. What could they do? Left Tianpei no longer cared about anything—he directly placed his mouth against Liang Qin Yun's and began mouth-to-mouth respiration. In a short while, with a series of coughing sounds, Liang Qin Yun suddenly expelled a large amount of seawater, which sprayed right onto Left Tianpei's body. Seeing that mouth-to-mouth respiration was being performed, Liang Qin Yun immediately blushed. Her head remained low, never daring to lift it to look at anyone's face.
The next day, they watched the sunrise by the seaside, a breathtaking spectacle, more vivid and engaging than the sunrise viewed from the cruise ship. Gao Ruolan, Zhang Xiaoli, Chen Yanling, and Liang Qin Yun were all excited, running and playing joyfully on the beach, thoroughly delighted. Yet, none of them could have imagined that danger was right before their eyes. Indeed, several crocodiles appeared, floating motionless on the water, waiting patiently for someone to approach—then, with a sudden rush, they would charge, dragging people into the water. The girls had all moved to the shallow waters to swim and play, fully immersed in their fun, when suddenly, four of them cried out in alarm. Standing on the shore, F3 was left stunned, as he watched several large crocodiles surge forward with astonishing speed, seizing the girls' clothing with their serrated teeth and pulling them steadily toward the deep sea.
While F3 was stunned, Gao Liang, the god of light descending and reborn, pulled out his signature weapon—the nine-tined rake—from his ears. With a thunderous roar that shook the sky like a lightning bolt, he sent the crocodiles fleeing in terror. In just three seconds, he swung the rake and struck several crocodiles on the heads. Blood sprayed from their brains, staining the sea red. Gao Ruolan, Zhang Xiaoli, Chen Yanling, and Li Qin Yun were saved. Gao Liang then folded the rake, shrinking it down and storing it back in his ears.
"Wow! Gao Liang! That's amazing!"
Zhao Yuanhang hurried over to Gao Liang and praised him enthusiastically.
Fan Weizhe and Zuo Tianpei also raised their thumbs, saying, "You seemed to be using a shiny object to strike the crocodiles just now—yet we couldn't quite make out what it was."
"Oh? This one!"
Gao Liang casually displayed the object. Upon seeing it, everyone realized it was a fishing spear with three sharp tines.
Four girls and F3 were amazed by Houang's strength and courage, showing deep admiration for him. Houang smiled and said, "This fishing spear not only can wound crocodiles but also can catch fish!" Upon hearing that Houang could use the spear to catch fish, everyone became enthusiastic. They wanted to see it firsthand, since none of them had eaten anything all day—no solid food, no even a sip of fresh water. Being both hungry and thirsty was quite uncomfortable, so they all eagerly requested to try fishing. F3 took the initiative and began learning fishing from Houang. Houang gave each of them a spear and led them to areas where fish were abundant. F3 initially didn't know how to hold the spear, and Houang spent a long time patiently teaching them before they could even begin. However, a new challenge arose—they couldn't swim in the deep sea. Houang then taught each of them individually. After half a day of effort, they finally managed to fish in a more organized and decent manner.
Zhao Yuanhang indeed had a natural talent for fishing. He skillfully applied his racing expertise to fishing and immediately caught a small yellow fish. Left Tianpei and Fan Weizhe were envious, as they had fished for hours with no success. However, under Zhao's guidance, both Tianpei and Weizhe made significant progress and each caught a small yellow fish. As for Gao Liang, he had not caught any fish, merely exploring the conditions of the water area. Zhao Yuanhang grew increasingly confident and, taking advantage of the presence of Gao Ruolan, Zhang Xiaoli, Chen Yanling, and Li Qin Yun on the shore, proposed that F3 team up and compete with Gao Liang to see who could catch the most fish. The four women on the shore were enthusiastically observing the fishing competition, chatting and discussing the progress. Zhao Yuanhang caught the most fish, followed by Fan Weizhe, then Left Tianpei, while Gao Liang had only managed to catch a few sea shrimp. "Zhao Yuanhang! Keep going!"
Zhang Xiaoli picked up the lively, jumping fish on the shore, shouting excitedly. "Fang Weize! Congratulations on your tenth fish!" Chen Yanling counted the fish Fang Weize had tossed onto the shore, beaming with enthusiasm. "Zuo Tianpei! I'm playing the violin to cheer you on!" Liang Qinyn was especially happy today, as she truly loved this romantic life of escaping the city and returning to the sea, so she played the violin to add to the atmosphere. Yet, Gong Rong's performance was surprisingly disappointing—when the total number of fish caught by F3 reached one hundred, Gong Rong still only had a small yellow fish and the shrimp from earlier. Gong Ruolan was more anxious than anyone else. She said, "Ouang, what's wrong with you today?" Then she tossed the small yellow fish and the shrimp back into the sea. "I've already won!" Gong Rong replied, full of confidence. This statement caused everyone to laugh—now, F3 had accumulated over two hundred fish, while Gong Rong had none.
But as they were laughing and enjoying themselves, Gao Liang plunged into the deep sea with his fishing spear, and after just three minutes, he surfaced again. To everyone's amazement, his spear was now laden with a long string of fish. With a gentle shake, Gao Liang released the fish, which cascaded toward the shore. The crowd rushed over to count them—exactly 300 fish! "Wow! Amazing!" they all exclaimed in awe. Gao Ruolan caught the largest fish thrown by Gao Liang, raised her thumb in appreciation, and gave him a warm smile. Gao Liang then said, "These fish here are all small. Would you like to catch a larger one?" This remark acted like a powerful boost, instantly energizing everyone. The four girls eagerly watched Gao Liang and Team F3, excitedly anticipating another fishing competition. Team F3 truly demonstrated fishing expertise—after switching to a new area, they quickly adapted to the new environment, worked together, and successfully caught a large yellow fish weighing around thirty pounds, earning praise from the three girls.
But Huangdao shook his head dismissively and said, "Watch me!" With that, he dove straight into the deep sea. F3 and the four girls stared anxiously at the water's surface, but after three and five minutes had passed, Huangdao still hadn't surfaced.
