Mu Sili smiled slightly, took a few steps forward, her hair moving without wind, and said in a gentle voice, "My surname is Mu. I don't know if Xiangsi has told you about me. She is my disciple."

apprentice?

Jun Qi didn't understand these things, but he still didn't let his guard down. He stood in front of Xu Qiaoqiao, but he couldn't stop her because their sizes were too different.

Xu Qiaoqiao looked over with curiosity. She looked at the man and wondered if this was the master that Xiangsi respected so much.

How can she look so young?

She looks even younger than Xiang Si. Could she have practiced some kind of rejuvenation technique? After all, this world is so magical.

This idea is somewhat correct. Xu Qiaoqiao remembered that Xiangsi had mentioned before that his master and the previous merman were lovers. How old must they be? So they must have practiced some kind of rejuvenation technique.

Xu Qiaoqiao was certain of this idea. She didn't sense any danger from the other party, which meant that the other party was harmless. The only thing she didn't understand was how the other party got here.

These thoughts appeared in Xu Qiaoqiao's mind quickly and disappeared just as quickly.

Jun Qi was quite familiar with her, but he didn't expect a hint of surprise to appear on her face. He looked at Xu Qiaoqiao and said in amazement, "Your big fish is quite interesting. Its intelligence is just like that of an ordinary human."

Jun Qi frowned. Could this human hear what Qiao Qiao was saying?

"However, I haven't practiced any rejuvenation techniques, Big Fish."

Mu Sili added another sentence.

Xu Qiaoqiao: You can actually hear it?!

This piqued Xu Qiaoqiao's curiosity, so she stretched out her pectoral fins and hugged Jun Qi.

"Yes, as for how I got here, I can't say for now."

Jun Qi didn't respond, but because Xu Qiaoqiao's reassuring attitude had softened considerably, he still didn't sense any danger from her. However, it would be strange if he didn't feel threatened by the sudden appearance of someone.

Strange, this person looks very strong.

After Mu Sili finished speaking, the atmosphere became tense, except for the fish whose brain was particularly active.

"Master!"

Just then, Xiangsi finished practicing her swordsmanship and wandered around. She saw a familiar figure and thought the sun was too bright and her eyes were playing tricks on her.

She quickly wiped her eyes and, finding that the figure hadn't disappeared, immediately became happy.

Xiangsi's voice broke the deadlock, and three pairs of eyes immediately turned to her. Xiangsi ignored them and ran towards Mu Sili, hugging him tightly.

"Master, what brings you here?"

Mu Sili affectionately patted Xiangsi's head, smiled slightly, and said nothing.

Xu Qiaoqiao and Jun Qi exchanged a glance. Xiangsi's master looked so young! She had thought he would be an old man with a white beard. He was completely different.

"Jun Jun, let's go first. It's a bit awkward watching their affectionate relationship here."

Xu Qiaoqiao wagged her tail happily at Jun Qi, who immediately understood, and then the two of them quietly left.

Although she didn't know why Xiangsi's master had suddenly come over, Xu Qiaoqiao felt that it must be related to Junjun, since the two had in common that they were mermaids.

However, it shouldn't harm Junjun.

For some reason, Xu Qiaoqiao had this kind of directness in her heart, and she had never been wrong about this intuition. Just like when she first saw this mermaid, she had the intuition that it was Junjun.

Thinking of this, Xu Qiaoqiao became even happier. She wagged her little tail and secretly glanced at Jun Qi. Now that she had ended the cold war between them, the two of them had returned to their previous atmosphere.

The sun was shining brightly today, and it felt very comfortable. Xu Qiaoqiao leaned against Jun Qi and couldn't help but squint her eyes. It was summer, and the sun was very hot, but it had just rained yesterday, and the air was very fresh.

It feels like August is almost here again.

Xu Qiaoqiao thought to herself, "When the damn heat comes again, it's really going to be awful, even though I've gotten used to it a lot over the years."

Then I felt terrible for several months...

Suddenly, a hand covered one of her eyes, and Xu Qiaoqiao stopped wagging her tail. She raised her head slightly without making any other movements, and then heard Jun Qi's gentle words.

"I'm here, it'll be alright, Qiaoqiao."

"At worst, I'll suffer with you. Although I can't become human, I remember there's a method for sensory transfer in the pile of books about lovesickness."

Xu Qiaoqiao blinked. "Oh, there's this too? Xiangsi seems to have become much more reliable since she grew up."

"Wow wow wow~"

However, you can't.

Hearing Xu Qiaoqiao's refusal, Jun Qi was stunned for a moment. He released his hand, looked into Xu Qiaoqiao's bright eyes, and tilted his head: "Why?"

Xu Qiaoqiao whimpered a few times, her pectoral fins swayed happily, and she exhaled a column of air, making a whirring sound like a train.

"No, you can't. It will break my heart. And if you really do that, who will take care of me then?"

"Don't even think about doing it secretly later. Do you want to start another cold war?"

Jun Qi didn't know what the term "cold war" meant, but his intuition told him it wasn't a good word, so he immediately replied, "Okay, I understand. I won't do that. I'll listen to you."

Hearing Jun Qi's promise, Xu Qiaoqiao laughed. Seeing Jun Qi's nervous look, she went over and rubbed against his big pectoral muscles: "Okay, okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Jun Jun, let's go catch jellyfish together!"
