Witch, I'm really not the Deep Sea Ancient God!

Chapter 106: Chapter 87: Chance Encounter

Upon the grassland, a breeze wafted by, causing the deep sea elves beneath their seats to shudder.

The Flower Witch, holding a bowl, fell silent for a moment.

Dislike your own name? Or unwilling to speak it? Chen Qi paused, as if he had asked a question he shouldn't have.

On the gaming forums, the Flower Witch did have a name.

But neither the Flower Witch herself nor the players liked to mention the Flower Witch's name.

In the Witch Sea, only a title acknowledged by the world counted as a true name.

Picking up a cabbage, the Flower Witch slowly said:

"Fen, my name is Fen, a very ordinary name."

Chen Qi gave a slight smile:

"Simple, but quite nice."

In this world, many people's names consist of a single, simple syllable with a simple meaning.

Just like his own name in this world, Qi, symbolizing possibilities, enlightenment, and more.

In the Golden Flower Bird Kingdom, Fen carries the meaning of the scent of flowers.

Although the Flower Witch had been running around every day and probably hadn't bathed in many days, she really smelled nice.

A name quite fitting for her.

But in the Golden Flower Bird Kingdom, Fen is a rather common name, and it is used by many males, akin to Jason.

Though the Flower Witch came from a noble background, her name was surprisingly ordinary.

Therefore, the Flower Witch didn't really like others to mention her name.

Chen Qi changed the subject:

"Speaking of which, Flower Witch, how much for one of the vegetables in your garden? I'd like to buy some."

The Flower Witch wiped the grease from the corner of her mouth:

"Friendship price, three thousand... no, just take what you want. The Dragon Breath Grass you gave me is quite valuable and enough to buy a lot of vegetables.

Besides, I'm not very good at cooking. If you can turn these ingredients into delicious food, both my teacher and I would be happy."

"Just take what you want..."

Chen Qi's mouth fell open slightly.

That was a whole vegetable garden!

The Flower Witch laughed proudly:

"Although you can't tell, I'm really quite good at gardening."

"Gardening?"

The Flower Witch made a motion of carrying a hoe and explained:

"Yes, when I was a child, because I was recuperating, I always lived in the countryside. Our family's maxim is nobility and elegance!

But in the countryside, there were no pianos, no flowers to plant, no peers to play with, and they wouldn't let me interact with pet beasts.

Many elegant pursuits were beyond my reach.

However, I thought about it—if planting flowers is elegant, then gardening should be elegant too.

So, I started gardening with the maid, and I even got scolded for it later."

"Did you plant this whole vegetable garden?"

Chen Qi was somewhat admiring as he imagined it.

The young Flower Witch, wielding a hoe twice her height, clearing the land.

All these vegetables represent no small feat.

The Flower Witch seemed to have found a kindred spirit. After all, her parents and relatives always told her that gardening was something only vulgar people did.

A few lively small yellow flowers sprouted on her head:

"Yes, and do you know what? After I fulfill the lifelong wish of the Flower Witch, I plan to adopt an even more elegant and domineering title for myself."

Chen Qi curiously pressed on, "What title?"

The Flower Witch had inherited the wish and legacy of the First Generation Flower Witch, so she always identified herself with this title.

Blood Flower Witch?

The Flower Witch's ultimate move was to bloom flowers amid blood.

Or Fragrant Witch? This was a more common title, but it suited the identity of the Flower Witch.

"Hmph, hmph, it's a title I've thought about for a long time, exceptionally elegant."

"What is it?"

The Flower Witch puffed out her chest, touched her nose with her index finger, and said with a touch of pride:

"Vegetable Witch."

"!?"

Chen Qi almost choked on a piece of cabbage.

What kind of title was that? Why not call herself Potato Witch or Cabbage Witch?

It's like turning the Gluttonous Witch into the Eating Rice Witch, the Angry Witch into the Wild Witch, the Ice Witch into the Ice Cream Witch, the Despair Witch into the depression witch.

Mainly because, in Chen Qi's view, vegetable also has another meaning.

Vegetable, as in 'just practice'.

The Flower Witch asked expectantly, "How about it, isn't it very elegant?"

"Hmm…not bad."

Chen Qi nodded in agreement.

The Flower Witch revealed two happy little yellow flowers:

"Right, quite elegant, indeed. Unfortunately, I cannot abandon this name until I have fulfilled the wish of the Flower Witch.

I must follow the path of my teacher to make everything better and to cure the illness…"

As the Flower Witch spoke, the flowers atop her head wilted slightly, a heavy sense of fate and illness pressing down.

Striving for fame alone in this vast sea is no easy feat.

And to challenge the great whale is to challenge fate itself.

Only those of legend could achieve such a miracle.

Beneath every legend lies countless scattered bones.

No one knows how many who set out to sea are buried in the Witch Sea.

Amidst their casual conversation, the food on the dining table was nearly finished.

And the alchemy furnace began making bubbling sounds.

Reluctantly, the Flower Witch rose from the Water Elf's side, resuming her potion brewing.

Chen Qi had the deep-sea Water Elf tidy up the cutlery and dishes.

Under his training, she had learned how to do the dishes and clean.

He was confident that before long, the deep-sea Water Elf would also learn to fold blankets and give massages.

A somewhat bored Chen Qi asked, "Flower Witch, how much longer will you be?"

"A few hours."

Just watching the Flower Witch make potions wasn't much of an activity... Chen Qi slapped his book:

"I want to take a look outside Black Land. I saw some excellent Transcendent ingredients while I was sailing."

"Ingredients?"

The Flower Witch recalled for a moment.

In Black Land, indeed, there are many rare Transcendent fish species.

Although Black Beard is of no danger to her,

for Chen Qi, venturing unprepared into Black Land is like a lamb entering a wolf's den.

The Flower Witch took out a bottle of black potion and handed it to Chen Qi:

"The scent of this potion can repel Black Beard. If you're venturing out, you can apply this potion so that Black Beard won't attack you."

"Thank you."

Chen Qi took the potion and applied it from the top of his head to his feet.

Then, he passed through the crack and returned to the Black Land Island.

The morning sunlight shone on his dark hair.

Chen Qi enjoyed the sun washing away his fatigue: "Is it daytime already?"

The entire Black Land Island was like a vast reed field.

Except these reeds were the taller Black Beard.

Chen Qi wandered through the dense Black Beard, looking towards the water as he ventured deeper.

After some time, he successfully found a rare sea beast.

"What is this?"

Chen Qi crouched down and picked up the black clam at his feet.

[Black Clam

Introduction: Transcendent clam species, known for its sharp shells capable of biting humans, causing them to fall into a nightmare.

Its inner black pearl can attract one's gaze, making it a rather nice jewel.]

"Ten black clams, this is all money, they can be transplanted to the Land of White Trees."

Chen Qi placed the black clams into his water bucket.

The place of Black Land is too remote and broken.

He decided to give the clams a better home.

A pearl from a black clam can sell for about seventy thousand; ten would fetch seven hundred thousand.

Moreover, unlike ordinary clams, black clams are not to be underestimated, with very rapid pearl production.

With the addition of Ghost Fire Fish, saving up to buy a big ship wasn't just a dream.

A path to wealth was already appearing before him.

Chen Qi continued cautiously within the Black Beard, seeking more black clams.

Suddenly, he heard some familiar voices, along with the sound of a blade cutting through flesh.

Boom! Boom!

Besides that, there was the roaring sound of large machinery.

"How about it, our great little ship doctor, how's the concentration of the Black Whale Blood?"

A familiar voice came from behind the Black Beard wall.

Chen Qi stopped in his steps, slowing his movements.

In this forbidden land of Black Beard, there were others...
