"I don’t know if the Sea Clan will suddenly show up..." Moer sighed, unsure if she was expressing her own concerns or those of Avril’s.
"Then I might as well leave. What should I do if the king suddenly appears?" Figo, lying on the ground, sat up and sighed.
"It’s past midnight now, I refuse to believe that the Sea Clan could stay in the temple for so long. Just keep lying there, I won’t make you or Avril uncomfortable. The issue with the Sea Clan, you two don’t need to get involved." Liu Zhenhan told the Whale Warrior.
Upon hearing this, Figo sighed heavily and lay down again.
Moer threw herself into Ningyu’s arms, curling up. Ningyu lovingly wrapped her cloak around her and began humming a soft tune -- the tune was "Blood Red Hair," a song that Liu had adapted into the common language of the continent. As Moer closed her eyes, she softly hummed along with Ningyu, slowly falling asleep.
Liu blinked, suddenly remembering something. The battle song in Chinese that Moer had inherited was not just the original five, but also included "Blood Red Hair" -- the "Soul Lock Chain Battle Song". Get full chapters from novel✶fire.net
"This is too terrible." Liu groaned.
"Indeed it is. If war were to erupt between the Sea Clan and the land, it would be another world war. Last time, if not for the assistance of the Giants, we, the Dragon Clan, would undoubtedly have had to intervene." Ruona expressed her concern unknowingly, "Such an incredible Eastern mage! Even able to create a ’Water Release Formation’, distorting the principles of elemental knowledge, it’s just too impressive!"
"Figo, could you help explain why the Sea Clan is so eager to come onto land? The ocean is so vast and in your cities, pearls are as common as dirt, gold as common as iron. Why are you still obsessed with invading the mainland?" Liu Zhenhan turned his head to look at the Whale Warrior beside him and asked.
"Pearls, coral, and crystal agate are indeed as common as dirt in your eyes, but what about the sun, the moonlight, and the campfire in our eyes? Aren’t they like pearls and crystals in yours?" Figo, munching on a stem of artemisia, stared intently at the sky: "Among us, the Sea Clan, apart from the royal family, no one has the ability to adapt to both water and land. How wonderful would it be if I were a member of the amphibious Aquatic Race among the Beamon, able to swim in water and no longer eat cold food."
"Cheap and expensive, justice and evil, could it just be a matter of perspective?" Daisy’s remarks suddenly acquired some insights.
A beam of light shot up from the magic teleportation array in the well, startling O’Neal, who was roasting meat. A large piece of almost cooked alligator meat fell into the fire with a "splat".
Sirens, Naga, and Mermaids stood with around forty Sea Clan guards in a pearl formation. They all stared dumbfoundedly at the Beaomn on the pastures and the Immortal Terrace, separated by only fifty yards.
Liu Zhenhan and the others didn’t expect the Sea Clan to actually keep vigil overnight and were also dumbstruck upon seeing the group of Sea Clan members.
After a long while, no one spoke.
The Vajra Parrot opened its eyes and cursed, "Love-struck dragon~" which seemed to bring everyone to their senses.
"Good evening." Liu Zhenhan greeted enthusiastically.
"You..." Beckenbauer the king clearly had a hard time accepting this, especially when he saw Gerein cuddling Xu Dela who was still snoring not far from the Magic Circle. His face turned even more ugly.
"Want to know why?" Liu Zhenhan was smiling and looking at them.
Twenty Magic Shark Warriors immediately stood in front of King Beckenbauer. Beckenbauer pushed his guards aside and coldly said, "Tell me, why?"
"I am a Beamon shaman, and a very outstanding one at that. Do you know what shamans do?" Liu Zhenhan pointed to his nose and enunciated each word, "They tame magical creatures."
"Piegel, you sure are full of life." Being the ruler of the ocean depths, Beckenbauer quickly calmed down from his shock and casually smiled, "So what? Although the Tide Lord is powerful, we have three major underwater royalties here. Just because we don’t want to start a war easily doesn’t mean we’re afraid of this divine messenger."
"What if we add two Fairy Dragons?" Daisy removed her cloak and hood and held up the drooling Katusha who was fast asleep. She stood shoulder to shoulder with Ruona who was holding two Seven-Star Crossbows, a weapon that only existed in legends in the underwater world.
It wasn’t just them holding crossbows, O’Neal and Guoguo also stood behind the Fairy Dragons, holding two crossbows each.
The faces of the Sea Clan members all changed at once, except for the calm Mermaid King. The others all changed their expressions dramatically, especially the Sirens. Fairy Dragons wielding crossbows were almost perfect nemesis to them. At this point, it was unlikely they could withdraw, the incantation for the Magic Teleportation in the well was not very long but not short either, certainly enough time for a barrage from these crossbows. Although the Sea Clan had summoned a shield, within such a close distance, no magic shield could withstand the crossbow bolts, especially if they were at the front.
