After millions of years, the Blade Family finally gave birth to an imperfect soul. To ensure Ning Ren's smooth growth, the Main God sent him into small worlds to gain experience, gifting him a ...
Mermaid Song: Shura Field 10
After Ning Ren returned to the base, he got down from Abra's arms, ran to the table and jumped onto a stool, poured himself a glass of water, and drank it all in one gulp.
Today’s impromptu trip was so exciting!
Abra: "Drink slowly."
He poured Ning Ren another cup. Thinking back to the scene just now, he couldn't help but warn, "King, I feel it's very unsafe out there. The leader of the City of Chaos seems... mentally unstable." He changed the word "mentally unstable" to a more euphemistic one. "Perhaps he's lost a child before, so he feels a bit of empathy for you. I think you should try not to go out before the meeting begins."
Obviously, Abra thought Ning Ren's abnormal reaction was because he was frightened.
Actually, it’s not like that. Ning Ren just feels guilty and doesn’t dare to face it.
Even though it wasn't his intention, he actually hurt a lot of people, like Ye Lu's mother, A Sulin's father, and many more...
After Ning Ren calmed down, he put the few pink daisy flowers he had been holding in his hand into the vase on the table.
Sit down with a glass of water.
Hopefully, this will be the last time, and he must try his best to survive.
In the afternoon, Lorenzo, who had gone to the royal city for a meeting, came back. He was usually simple-minded and his emotions were revealed on his face. He looked reluctant when he left, but was smiling when he came back, and he brought back a bunch of things.
"King! Come and see!"
Lorenzo piled these things on the ground, half a person's height.
Ning Ren: "What is this?"
Is he going to the royal city or to purchase goods?
Abra opened one and found a small jar inside. He sniffed it and it had a nice fragrance. "This looks like medicine?"
Lorenzo said happily, "The people of the Northern Territory are so hospitable. I was about to leave after the meeting, but their chief steward pulled me aside and said that their leader felt it was very hard for us to come all the way from the Western Sea, so he personally took me to the warehouse to pick out a lot of things.
They were so enthusiastic that I couldn't refuse. These were already gifts I had declined many times."
"Look, there are so many! I took a look at a few. Many of them can be used by kings, and there are also some toys that are not available in the Western Sea. Oh, this is an ointment. It is said to be the best in the Northern Territory. I wonder how it compares to our Western Territory's..."
Abra: “…”
He grasped the key point, "You said this was instructed by their leader?"
Lorenzo was delighted. "Yes, to send so many gifts right after waking up, this leader is really a good man."
Abra's face darkened instantly.
He couldn't help himself and slapped Lorenzo on the head.
There was a crisp sound.
Ning Ren: “…”
Not really.
He stretched out his hand, wanting to say something but failing to stop the 'bullying'.
The elegant old man recounted what happened today, and then angrily began to curse:
"Are you stupid? The chief thought our king looked like his deceased cub and wanted to take him home to raise for a few days. What's that? He's kidnapping a child! If that happened to our tribe, it would be a sinister and shameless act!"
These things are bait. Not only do you not know how to refuse them, but you are also so happy to take them back. Are you naive or really stupid? When Wang is really kidnapped, I wonder where you will go to cry! ! "
Lorenzo's head was buzzing.
When he was no longer confused, his whole face turned red quickly, and his eyes were fixed on the pile of gifts as if he were an enemy, as if he had an irreconcilable hatred, and his fingers were clenched so hard that they made a crackling sound.
He said, “That’s actually the case!!”
Lorenzo stared at the slap mark on his forehead and walked back and forth. "I was wondering why they only left me behind? I guess that's what they were planning!"
He raged, "I'm sending these back right now!"
Why should their king be raised by the City of Chaos?! Not even for a few seconds, let alone a few days!
"Okay, okay." Ning Ren said helplessly.
He stopped Lorenzo's action and said, "Since you have brought it here, just put it here."
Ning Ren rummaged through the pile of gifts and found a lot of his favorite Northern Territory snacks. He hadn't eaten them for a long time and really missed them.
Sending them back would have a bad impact on the diplomatic relations between the two ethnic groups, so it is better to keep them.
He opened a bag of snacks and stuffed them into his mouth skillfully.
In the eyes of the two city lords behind him, this meant that the City of Chaos had become attractive to their king, which was not a good sign.
If Wang had been an adult or a little older, they wouldn't have bothered with such trivial matters. It was simply that Wang was too young, and if some evil-minded villains tried to lure him away, he would most likely have been lured away.
Although Wang usually appears mature, he is actually still a child.
See, isn’t this just holding on to snacks?
Ning Ren was thinking that if he could stay at home for the next two days, he should try not to go out. He should stay here quietly and wait until the meeting was over before following the main group to worship the light pillar.
To avoid any more trouble.

The central royal city.
Old stone.
The first and second elders of the clan seldom come to Old Stone. They have mostly lived in the middle area to take care of the cubs in the past five years, but today they were all called here by Asulin.
The two elders were naturally excited, but they felt very distressed when they saw Asulin's thin appearance.
They didn't dare mention the young master's affairs in front of Asulin, so they tactfully asked him to eat more during meals.
"Actually, even if you hadn't invited us here, we two would have come to take a look. Jie Ling said that you, the leader..." The elder hesitated, "carved a blood knot on your heart."
A Sulin poured tea for the two elders.
Hearing this, his expression remained unchanged as he admitted, "Yes."
The second elder asked: "Is it due to withdrawal symptoms?"
He exchanged glances with the clan elder, and both saw worry and uneasiness in each other's eyes.
Even if the blood knot dissipates naturally, the withdrawal reaction of the parents who planted the seal will continue for a period of time. With the sudden disconnection like the leader's, they have no accurate estimate of how long the withdrawal reaction will last and how severe it will be.
After Jie Ling told them about the mark carved on the leader's chest, they all realized that this matter might not be easy to resolve in the short term.
A Sulin: "I called you two here today just for the Blood Origin Knot."
The elder pondered, "Withdrawal symptoms usually only last over time, allowing the body to forget them. But I remember there's a medicine that can..."
"You're mistaken," Asulin said calmly, "I'm not trying to eliminate withdrawal symptoms."
He raised his head, his tone devoid of any joking intent, "I'm asking if there's any way to re-condense the blood knot and find where Ah Ren is."
Boom! A thunder exploded.
Asulin's eyes were calm, and he didn't feel at all that what he said was crazy.
The second elder stood up suddenly, horrified: "How is this possible?! The young master has already-" The rest of the words died in his throat. He tapped his crutch, "Unbelievable! Impossible!"
Arabian Nights!
The leader looks calm, but he has actually gone crazy for a long time!
After being stunned for a moment, the elder patted his chest and said, "Chief, we know you are sad that the young master has left you. If we had a choice, no one would want this to happen, but you still have to look forward.
Reconnecting the broken bloodline is impossible, not to mention that even if there is a way to do it now, it would be against the will of heaven."
"People are reincarnated after death. After reincarnation, their personalities and experiences become those of another person. Even if you find them, can you really bring them back?"
The two of them were really shocked, and were afraid that Asulin would do something out of line, so they each tried to persuade him for a long time.
A Sulin did not refute them out loud. He waited until they finished speaking before asking, "So you two have no other solution?"
The first and second elders of the clan: "..."
So the leader really wasn't listening to what they were talking about for a long time just now!
"some."
The door of the stone house opened, and Si Mao stood on Jie Ling's shoulder and meowed.
The elegant orange cat stretched and jumped in front of Asulin. "There is a way, and it's very simple. Have you found A Ren, or his reincarnation?"
Jie Ling: "You asked me to give so many gifts to the young leader of the mermaid tribe. Are you suspicious of him...?"
The second elder: "Young leader of the mermaid tribe?"
Asulin didn't say anything and agreed.
The second elder turned to ask Jie Ling: "What's going on?"
Jie Ling bowed and briefly explained, "Ninglie has met the young leader of the merman tribe and told me that he bears some resemblance to the young master. The leader has been paying unusual attention to that child today, so it's not hard to guess."
But in fact, both he and Ninglie felt that the leader had suffered too great a blow, and when he saw a child who looked like the young master, he developed empathy.
A Sulin: "Si Mao, tell me the solution."
Si Mao: "Young Master and Chief, you are both recognized heirs by the Sacrificial Light Pillar. The Sacrificial Light Pillar once absorbed the blood of both of you. It can use its power to temporarily awaken the Blood Source Knot and search for the Young Master, provided that the Young Master is within the sensing range of the Blood Source Knot.
But the consequence is that if he is not the reincarnation of the young master, then this last method of finding the young master will be invalidated."
The method is very simple, but you only have one chance.
It all depends on what Asulin chooses.
Asulin didn't hesitate. "After the meeting the day after tomorrow, the mermaids, Lanhuadis, our tribe, and other qualified tribes will gather together around the sacrificial light pillar. I will use this opportunity then."
Sima Mao was very puzzled and said bluntly, "Even if we test it, what's the point? One possibility is that he's not, and your only hope will be shattered. Another possibility is that he is, but he has no memories of his past reincarnation. Besides, the king of the mermaids is so noble. Are you trying to steal his person? This is simply..."
"Won't."
A Sulin said: "As long as I know that he is doing well, that's enough."
He just needed a definite result, and he was not 100% sure of the answer given by his body.
Today he saw the child snuggling into the arms of the guardian behind him, looking very dependent, just like how A Ren treated him when they were children, and he felt a little sad.
I don’t know if it’s because I’m thinking about the past, or because I subconsciously mistake that child for A Ren, that makes me sad.
If the Blood Knot really reacted, he would definitely not reach out to snatch the child if A Ren had no memory.
Children will be sad when separated from their family. After reincarnation, he is just a stranger to A Ren.
But for him, knowing that his child is doing well now, even if he cannot be close to him or accompany him, is enough to make him walk out of that cold nightmare.
A Sulin stood up and said, "Si Mao, come with me to worship the Light Pillar and tell me what to do the day after tomorrow."
Si Mao: "Okay."
I hope that by then the leader can really control his emotions.

Two days passed quickly.
The much-anticipated first four-domain race conference across the continent officially begins in the City of Chaos!
Of course, the races that received invitations were only qualified to enter the City of Chaos. The races that could actually sit at the conference table, apart from the monopoly of the royal family of the Eastern Region, were only three or four in each region.
They are the ones standing at the top of the continent's pyramid.
The Mi tribe, red horse, white feather, and beautiful snake in the northern region, the mermaid, water qilin, and silver petrel in the western region, the Lan Huadis in the eastern region, and the unicorn and wind lion tribe in the southern region.
Among them, the Western Region is undoubtedly the most harmonious.
The mermaids live in the deep sea, and the middle layer of the sea is where the water qilin lives. The two tribes are very far apart, and the water qilin has a lower fertility rate and is almost extinct.
The Silver Petrel's territory is on the ocean shore, and apart from trade, there is even less interaction.
Although the overall strength of the mermaids far exceeds that of these two tribes, they have no intention of fighting for territory. Their own territory is big enough, and they prefer to study beautiful music.
As for the Southern Region.
This is their first time performing on such a big stage.
The Wind Lion Clan is the strongest in the Southern Territory, and the only one that can barely compete with this race is the Unicorn Clan.
The Wind Lions disliked the Unicorns for being pretentious and mysophobic, and were very dissatisfied that they were able to come to the Royal City to attend the meeting. The Unicorns disliked the Wind Lions for being arrogant and ostentatious. The two tribes were like water and fire, so their seats at the meeting were far apart.
There is a long table in the conference room.
The cold color tone of the chaotic city is always maintained, and the receptionist who greets guests at the door is dressed appropriately.
There are standees on the conference table indicating the positions of each race.
Everyone arrived one after another. Those who arrived early chatted in low voices, while those who had no intention of chatting sat in their corresponding seats.
Three people from the Wind Lion Clan came, one leader and two deputy leaders.
After the three of them entered and looked around, Deputy Chief Zuo sneered, "I thought we were late enough, but look, there are probably many people who came even later than us. I don't know what they are trying to do..."
The meeting room was silent.
Jie Ling, who was in charge of maintaining order, glanced over here indifferently.
The Wind Lion leader didn't say anything, but he didn't stop the deputy leader either. It was obvious that he agreed with what was said. He led the two of them to the seats marked for their tribe.
As soon as they sat down, they found that their mortal enemies, the Unicorns, were sitting closer to them.
The Wind Lion leader frowned and said, "Can we change positions?"
Jie Ling: "Sorry, the seat was reserved long ago and cannot be moved."
The Wind Lion leader said, "I think we can arrange them according to their racial strength. This is more in line with your Chaos City's rule of selecting only the strongest races to enter this conference room, isn't it?"
Jie Ling: "Rearranging positions will affect all of us. If you find it troublesome or dissatisfied, you can discuss it with other races. If anyone is willing to exchange, we naturally have no objection."
The leader of the White Feather Tribe picked up the teacup and blew on the water.
Jacob did not hide his emotions, he laughed silently and played with his nails.
Isa turned two walnuts in his hands. He has been cultivating his character in recent years. He gets angry easily after being the patriarch for a long time, and he also gets angry easily after seeing too many idiots. Turning the walnuts can calm his mood.
By the time we were talking, almost everyone was there.
It was even quieter inside the palace.
A Sulin sat in the first seat, glanced at the empty seats on his left and right, and said lightly: "Haven't the mermaids and Lan Huadis arrived yet?"
"Lan Huadis's men are almost here. They've brought the King Tower's Heart Fire with them." After a pause, Jie Ling whispered, "The young lord of the mermaid tribe had a stomachache last night, so he'll be a little late."
He knew the leader was concerned about the child, so he paid special attention to what was happening in the merman settlement. The mermen truly loved their king, and even though it was just a minor illness, the two city lords would stay by the king's side and would not move no matter what.
A Sulin frowned: "Did you have a stomachache? Are you not used to the food in the Northern Territory or..."
Jie Ling whispered, "I heard he ate too much snacks."
A Sulin: “…………”
He picked up the teacup and took a sip, "Everyone, please wait a moment."
There are about fifteen minutes left before the meeting officially starts.
Those sitting at the conference table certainly had no objections. Not to mention that the time hadn't arrived yet, the most important thing was that this was a gathering that was only possible due to the visions of the Mi, Mermaid, and Lanhuadis tribes. Currently, only one of the three protagonists had arrived, so naturally they had to wait.
Even if it's just because the child is feeling uncomfortable after eating too much.
There are also those who are not convinced.
The Wind Lion leader's face looked very ugly.
They are the most powerful force in the Southern Territory, but they were stopped outside and not allowed to enter the royal city. They couldn't even do something as small as changing positions, and now they have to wait for a little kid who has not yet been weaned.
The mermaids were not here at the moment. Deputy Chief Zuo lowered his voice with malice and ridicule: "Little blind man, you are slow in dressing and eating. If you hadn't been born into a good family..."
A hint of hostility suddenly rose in Asulin's eyes.
blind?
When his child left him, he was also blind.
However, before he could attack, several powerful auras came from outside.
Wow——!
A strong wind blew up!
Half of the sky over the Royal City of Chaos suddenly turned black, and six oppressive black figures landed at the entrance of the palace. Their broad wings slowly folded in, and the wind they brought rushed directly into the palace.
When the Lanhuadis royal family travels in a high-profile manner, the light of the sky will be plundered by their wings.
Asulin narrowed his eyes.
Soon, the wind stopped and the darkness of the sky gradually faded away.
The seven figures walked in with regular footsteps. They were wearing court attire, with the retro, elegant and noble features unique to the royal family of the Eastern Region.
Jie Ling saw clearly the people coming from Lan Huadis, "They're all here..."
The two leaders were Wendoline and Carlos.
The next four are Xiercheng, Xierting, Dorothea and Carmichael.
Wendoline held a transparent cover with a flickering flame inside. This was the heart fire of Errigalan that flew down from the King's Tower.
A Sulin barely suppressed his anger towards the Wind Lion leader and stood up. "Sir Wen Duolin, it's been many years since we last met. I hope everything is going well."
Wen Duolin said politely: "I'm fine."
A hundred years have passed, and Wen Duolin has broken through the shackles of the Yang Realm and completely stepped into the Void Realm. The murderous aura in her body has become restrained, and her temperament has become more calm.
Asulin nodded to Carlos and others.
"Please take a seat."
Xilting: "Wait a moment."
His gaze fell precisely on the left deputy leader of the Wind Lion Clan. In full view of everyone, he walked to his side and placed his palm on the left leader's shoulder.
His tone was lazy: "Are you... very dissatisfied with the blind man?"
Deputy Chief Zuo of Fengshi was annoyed: "What are you doing?!" He wanted to pull Xierting's hand off, but this seemingly pale hand was placed on his shoulder, as if welded there, and he couldn't pry it apart no matter what!
In his early years, Xierting was used to hanging out in the Gang Ten District. He was ruffian and undisciplined. Although he returned to the army in recent years and dressed like a prince, his gloomy and unkind aura has dissipated a lot, but his temper has not been restrained at all.
Ever since little Eli was born, his family couldn't stand anyone saying the word "blind" in a mocking tone.
Even now, these two words cannot be desecrated or ridiculed in the entire Lanhuadis.
With this one sentence, the left deputy chief stepped on the common minefield of the Mi tribe and Lan Huadis present.
"Nothing. Since this is a meeting of the top races in the entire continent, before coming here, you should find out the taboos of other races as a courtesy.
This is the consensus.
Before coming here, my tribe had already learned and memorized the taboos of various tribes. "Blind man" is not allowed to be ridiculed in my tribe. You can find out with a little inquiry. But you bring it up here in public. Isn't that too rude of the Wind Lion tribe?"
Xierting said word by word: "Apologize."
He really wanted to beat this guy up, but they, the Lanhuadis, were the most friendly and kind people. He couldn't lose face for little Erri, so he just apologized in public.
Wait until there is no one around and then drag this guy out and beat him up.
"……sorry."
Three words squeezed out from between teeth.
Xilting let go, "That's right."
Carlos scolded him lightly, "Don't mess around."
Xilting smiled.
A Sulin: "Everyone, please sit down."
When the three tribes have gathered and the two tribes have gathered, there is still one left.
Finally, the mermaids arrived hurriedly in the last few seconds before the meeting started.
Wen Duolin and the others only heard a tired, panting, childish but polite voice:
"Sorry, sorry, I'm almost late."
The fire in her heart, which was hidden in the cover on the table, suddenly jumped.
