Xianmeng looked at the somewhat lonely Xiang Yu and said softly: "Master Xiang, although the road to becoming an immortal is full of loneliness and difficulty, as you can see today, there will be a lot of beauty and warmth accompanying you along the way."

“Don’t wallow in the sorrows of the past for the sake of the past. Everyone’s journey is full of ups and downs, but it’s these experiences that shape you as you are.”

As Xiang Yu listened to Xian Meng's words, the fog in his heart seemed to be illuminated by a ray of sunshine.

He took a deep breath, his eyes became firm, and said to Xianmeng: "Thank you, senior."

Then he picked up another glass of wine and said to Xianmeng: "Senior, I respect you."

Xiang Yu turned his attention to Lei Ze and General: "Two seniors, it is thanks to you that you are alive today, and I respect you both."

Lei Ze glanced at Xiang Yu casually: "I don't have time to drink with you, haven't you watched me eat meat?"

The general ignored him.

Xiang Yu didn't feel embarrassed after hearing this, and burst into laughter: "Senior is so generous, so I'll have a drink with him first."

Xian Meng responded to Xiang Yu's toast with a smile.

After Xiang Yu clinked glasses with Xian Meng, they drank it all in one gulp. The slight strong taste of the wine melted in their throats, followed by a floral aroma and sweetness that left people with endless aftertaste.

The wine made by the seniors is just like what the seniors said. Perhaps after tasting the strength of the wine, you will taste the fragrance and sweetness.

The salty sea breeze accompanied by the aroma of wine and meat creates a unique picture.

Perhaps it was the aroma of the wine and the delicious meat, or perhaps it was the aftermath of the disaster, or perhaps it was the guidance of an expert, but this meal was the most comfortable meal Xiang Yu had ever eaten.

Full of wine and food.

Lei Ze looked at Xiang Yu and said, "Okay, you've drank the wine and eaten the food, it's time for you to get out."

Xiang Yu was stunned for a moment after hearing Lei Ze's straightforward yet humorous words, and then laughed loudly:

"Hahahahaha."

"Senior, you are really extraordinary, but I, Xiang Yu, am not an ungrateful person. Senior, how can you use me? I am happy to serve you."

Lei Ze shook his head: "What can you do?"

Xiang Yu said: "I can do everything, fight, sail, sail, and take risks. I was a captain before."

Lei Ze interrupted him: "Well... By the way, I really have a question to ask you."

Xiang Yu said: "Senior, please speak."

Lei Ze asked: "Are you looking for something with so many people here?"

Xiang Yu thought for a while and replied: "Senior, I am indeed here to look for things. I don't have any hobbies. I just like to explore new things."

"And there is no unclaimed land on that continent, so... we went to sea."

Lei Ze smiled: "I have been at sea for a few years."

Xiang Yu replied: "It won't be long, only five years."

Lei Ze nodded: "It took five years to explore so much of the sea map. You are indeed a bit of a loser."

After speaking, Lei Ze took out a booklet from his storage ring and showed it to Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu looked at the chart and was a little surprised: "Senior, this... isn't this the chart I drew?"

"Why is it in your hands?"

Lei Ze said: "Nonsense, you think I saved you in vain. Don't look at the storage ring. I'm not interested in your junk. A foundation-building monk doesn't even have one million spiritual stones."

"Also, what's the matter with your sea painting? It's crooked and the proportions are wrong."

"Look at this, all these twisted marks. You've marked something. Where's the reef? Why didn't you mark it?"

"The most important thing is, what's the depth of the water? Why don't you draw it?"

Xiang Yu scratched his head: "Senior, why is the water depth important?"

Lei Ze smiled: "Why is it important? Think about why you encountered the blue-finned thunder whale. This stupid fish only lives in waters a thousand feet deep or deeper. Is the chart you took out to sea just a record of your trip?"

"There are also shore shapes, islands, reefs..."

Xiang Yu was a little confused after listening to his senior's words. Isn't the purpose of sea charts to record the movements of people at sea?

But the seniors are right. If you know the water depth, you can avoid going to deep water.

This time is indeed a lesson. It seems that in the future, I will send someone with water spiritual roots to record underwater when I go to sea.

Senior is really attentive.

"Boy, don't be distracted." Lei Ze's words rang out again, pulling Xiang Yu back from his thoughts.

"If you are not good at cultivation, and you are not serious about drawing sea charts, what do you rely on for a living when you go to sea? Luck?"

"No wonder you brought the whole ship to death."

Xiang Yu frowned slightly after hearing this.

Lei Ze looked at Xiang Yu, who was frowning slightly, and said, "Don't you want to hear this? What do you think the captain is? Is it a good relationship with the crew? Is it affectionate and righteous? Is it a fair distribution?"

"Hmph, naive."

"It's about bringing everyone who's following you back to shore safely."

"Otherwise, are you worthy of these people who have entrusted their trust to you?"

Xiang Yu took a deep breath and stopped talking.

"To be honest, you are not suitable to be a captain, because I don't think you can bear this responsibility. You'd better not make mistakes. Change your career."

"Is this what you call risking? Letting others risk their lives with you?"

Lei Ze's words were like a cold water poured on Xiang Yu's heart, making him feel colder and heavier than ever before.

"And your boat, come on, come with me."

With that said, the group of people walked to the beach. Lei Ze patted his storage bag, and a large ship lay in front of the group of people.

Xiang Yu was surprised and said: "Isn't this my boat? Senior...you took it back too?"

Lei Ze ignored Xiang Yu's words: "Look at your ship. It's just big. It doesn't have the protection it should have at all. It relies on a poor formation for protection."

"What crappy material is this ship's skeleton made of? Without the formation, it's just paper."

"And your formation isn't that good either."

"It can be seen from your cracked array, it's very low-level."

"..."

Lei Ze's words pierced his heart, and Xiang Yu's mood, which had just improved, started to blame himself again.

"So, I don't need you because I don't need too many stupid people."

After hearing what Lei Ze said, Xiang Yu was silent for a while and said:

"Senior...what you said...is a bit harsh, but I know it is indeed the truth."

"Senior, I don't know your name yet?"

"I....."

Lei Ze interrupted Xiang Yu: "Save the old man. Also, don't tell others my name. You have never seen me, do you understand?"

Xiang Yu saluted respectfully: "Senior, I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. I will keep your teachings in mind today. Now that you look down on me, I believe that when I grow up in the future, I will definitely help you."

Lei Ze smiled softly: "Let's go, keep going south from here, and you will reach the mainland."
