Anna, held in Feng Jiuyuan's arms, burst into tears the moment she saw the clear seawater, covering her mouth and sobbing.

She had waited for this day for far too long…

Mermaids have always been kind, and no one knows the pain and despair they felt when they witnessed themselves becoming evil. Fortunately, they have finally waited for this day, no longer tormented by their conscience, and can live freely in this world.

"I will definitely keep my promise to you."

Feng Jiuyuan patted Anna's shoulder tenderly, "Don't cry, it hurts me to see you like this."

"Thank you, Ajiu."

Anna's tears flowed even more fiercely. She hugged Feng Jiuyuan tightly around the waist and buried her face in his chest. "Really, I will remember this kindness for the rest of my life."

"Yes, of course you should remember this for the rest of your life."

Feng Jiuyuan wiped away her tears and gently pinched her nose, saying, "After all, you are going to repay me with your body and stay with me for all eternity."

"Okay, Xiaona knows!"

Hearing this, Anna felt a sweet warmth in her heart, her face flushed slightly, but her eyes were full of happiness.

The biggest gain this time was meeting Feng Jiuyuan. It was so good to meet him!

Everyone naturally noticed the interaction between the two, but unusually, they didn't make any jokes. They were well aware of the suffering of the merfolk, and now they were finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.

"alright."

After restoring the sea to its clear state, Ming Huashang did not retrieve the bead. Instead, he looked at Di Moyu and said, "The resentment contained within this bead comes from the sea. It needs to be resolved by the sea creatures themselves. Only then can the sea creatures return to their original state."

"Does Your Majesty mean we should continue to be these sea monsters?" Upon hearing this, the sea monsters were all stunned.

They originally thought that once the sea returned to normal, they could also get rid of their demonic bodies. But they didn't expect that they would have to continue to suffer.

"You chose to betray and fall into demonic ways, so you must pay the price."

Di Moyu said calmly, "The Black Dragon King, as the Sea God, has a weak will and is the culprit of this calamity in the sea. From today onwards, he shall be stripped of his position as Sea God and the power of the Dragon Clan shall be used to create a Cleansing Array to forever suppress the seabed until the 'Chaos Pearl' is purified."

"This guilty subject...receives the imperial decree!"

This result pained the Black Dragon King, who knew that the once mighty dragon race would lose its freedom. His only consolation was that they would not have to pay with their lives.

Purifying the Chaos Pearl will definitely take a long time, but as long as you persevere, you will eventually regain your freedom.

"As for the other sea creatures, those who aid and abet the evildoer may have their minds restored, but they must still appear in the form of sea monsters until the seas are restored."

Seeing that the Black Dragon King was remorseful, Di Moyu's expression softened. He turned to the anxious sea monsters and said, "If you want to return to your original forms as soon as possible, do your best to help the Dragon Clan purify the Chaos Pearl."

"Yes, we understand."

Although the outcome was cruel, the sea monsters understood that wrongdoing had consequences, and regaining their senses was already a great act of forgiveness.

Furthermore, as Di Moyu said, if they want to shed the sea monster's shell as soon as possible, all they need to do is purify the Chaos Pearl. So, they just need to work harder to help the dragon race in the future.

I believe that one day we will regain our sight.

"Xiao Na..."

Feng Jiuyuan hadn't expected this outcome and looked at Anna with some guilt.
