There's a lot to look forward to about this dinner, and Shen Jue is looking forward to it too.

The plan is set, all that's missing is the main character.

"Guests, we should go now," the red phosphorescent merman called out as they went up to them.

Shen Jue nodded and followed the red-scaled merman out.

Upon arriving at the underwater starry sky banquet hall, a long table was laden with a seafood feast.

Mermaids of all kinds, with indifferent expressions, moved about in the banquet hall.

The merman's expression was very different from when Shen Jue conducted his undercover investigation on the first day.

I always felt that these cold-faced merfolk were weird.

It's as if he's adopted the same cold expression as the Mermaid King.

There must be something wrong with these merfolk.

Unfortunately, these merfolk in the Merfolk Sea all possess unique abilities, and her illusory eyes cannot see through them.

Shen Jue quietly served as her vase.

Enjoy your snacks quietly. By the way, the snacks here are the kind that are crunchy and have a sweet and sour taste.

It was unusually sweet and sour and delicious. She didn't know what kind of food it was. If she completed the mission, she would like to find this kind of food afterward. It was very refreshing and helped pass the time.

Other merfolk moved about in the banquet hall, setting out food.

Shen Jue remained expressionless and continued eating.

After the merman had arranged the food, he stood still to the side.

Shen Jue remained expressionless and continued eating.

This little green snack is really delicious.

Little did they know, while Shen Jue sat there quietly eating her snacks, she was also a sight to behold in the eyes of others.

The Merman King smiled meaningfully.

He's back.

Insects can only be insects; they cannot be compared to highly intelligent beings.

However, having been occupied by the dark insects for too long, its control over its body has diminished significantly, and it does indeed require a large amount of energy to recover from its own depletion.

So he specially prepared this seafood feast.

The seafood in the Mermaid Sea can restore some of his energy.

The black insect's order for the merfolk to guard the black crystal they brought back back back ironically served as a tool for his own benefit.

Not only was all the energy his body had consumed replenished.

Moreover, his abilities have evolved once again.

He could clearly sense that the energy field of this sea area subtly revered him as its king.

Once this sea area completely submits to him as its king, he will be able to open the barrier that restricts the creatures of the Merfolk.

He could then send the creatures of the Merfolk Sea to other seas to conquer them for him and serve him.

This is a goal that every Merman King has dreamed of achieving.

Unexpectedly, this great goal, which all previous merman kings had failed to achieve, is about to be accomplished in his hands.

Moreover, completing the mission will also reward you with a beautiful human woman.

The current Merman King is curious about humans.

Because of the barrier surrounding the Mermaid Sea, the creatures within it are unfamiliar with the word "human" and have no knowledge of humans.

The Mermaid King narrowed his eyes.

"Your Majesty, the leader of the Black-Scaled Merfolk and his men pay homage to you."

"Okay, let him in."

The new Merfolk King believed that he would be tolerant of any merfolk, whether they had black scales or scales of other colors, as long as they were willing to pledge allegiance to him.

After receiving the order, the golden-scaled merman clenched his fist. He hated the black-scaled merman and the black-scaled race.

The golden-scaled merfolk did not understand that the black-scaled merfolk were born with a violent nature, loved fighting, and disliked obedience.

How could the king be willing to tolerate such an inelegant race with such unpredictable temperaments?

Only the king, being kind-hearted, was willing to forgive them.

Despite his dissatisfaction, the golden-scaled merman could only walk out of the palace to relay the king's oral decree.

"His Majesty says you may go in."

Anyway, he delivered the message. After relaying it, the golden-scaled merman turned and left.

It did not guide the Blackscale Merman at all.

The leader of the black-scaled merfolk had a face as pale as water.

But he tolerated it. Now the king of the merfolk is a special merfolk. He used some unknown means to directly wipe out a group of his men, causing the number of his Blackscale clan to dwindle.

This forced the Ancient One to lead his subordinates and his people to surrender to the new Merfolk King.

Otherwise, if they don't understand the new Merman King's temperament over time, their Black Scale Clan might be wiped out.

Therefore, at this succession ceremony, he led the Black Scale Clan to surrender to the new Merman King.

They hoped that the Merfolk King would see their clan's submission and thus show leniency and let them go.

But before they even met, the golden-scaled guards around the Mermaid King gave him a warning.

The Black Scale and Golden Scale clans have been at odds for hundreds of years.
