Wholly unprepared, Shen Nianzu choked on a mouthful of water as the frigid ocean engulfed him. Amidst the ceaseless undulation of waves, he was akin to a tattered boat who had lost sight of its way, struggling to find the surface. Tears flowed out of his eyes, only to mix with the salty ocean water. A string of bubbles escaped his lips as he felt himself losing precious breath at each passing second.
Oh no, he was drowning…
His limbs twitched spasmodically before going eerily still, allowing his body to sway in the rhythm of the water's buoyancy.
Was this it?
Was he really going to die here?
