Chapter 268 The Power of Water

The bathtub at Audrey's residence was very large; Qin Mo would have called it a swimming pool, and it was even heated.

Seeing the many beautiful young women waiting to serve the two of them while they bathed, Qin Mo quietly asked Shia, "What are they doing?"

"Oh! They should probably just observe! After all, they'll need to try awakening in the future."

"Holy crap! Are they... all mermaids?"

"It should be, but their royal bloodline is very thin. I can only feel a very slight bloodline resonance, or even none at all, far less intense than that of Aunt Audrey."

Seeing Qin Mo's embarrassed expression, Shia considerately dismissed the group of mixed-race mermaids and personally helped Qin Mo change clothes and enter the pool.

Shia knew that Qin Mo was always served by Kaihime when he bathed, so after becoming Qin Mo's personal maid, she once asked to serve him during his bath, but Qin Mo refused. Now everything is different, and Qin Mo naturally lets Shia do as she pleases.

Qin Mo's skin wasn't as fair as Xi Ya's, but the sharp edges and sheen on his body gave him a more aggressive look, which was completely different from his handsome appearance. He was like a cheetah disguised as a sheep, with an untamed wildness hidden beneath his gentle exterior.

Shia's skin is a typical pearly white. Unlike Caucasians, her skin has a clean and moisturizing feel, smooth as water to the touch, and even more delicate than the finest silk.

Only the two of them remained in the vast pool. After being completely honest with each other, Shia, who had been in control all along, felt a strange shyness.

Although Shia's water control talent was not as strong as Audrey's, she could still gather the surrounding water vapor. A large cloud of mist surrounded the two of them, making it difficult to see each other clearly. The two of them acted solely by touch.

"Shia, I suddenly remembered something very important..."

"What is it? Qin Mo, you're not going to back out, are you? Let me tell you, you're mine now, and you can't complain!"

"No...you're a mermaid, so...are you like a human?"

"I...I should be the same, right...?"

"Don't move, let me see..."

"Oh!... Same as above..."

Qin Mo, being an experienced person, first activated the primordial energy and the stellar power within his bloodline. A vortex of bright yellow primordial energy filled the sky, adorned with countless starlight, revolving around the two of them.

Gradually, the starlight spun faster and faster, and with Shia's cry of pain, the starlight vortex suddenly contracted and surged into Shia's body.

Audrey may seem indifferent, but she is actually very nervous about Shia's awakening process. She didn't go far and stayed outside the pool to protect the two of them in case anything unexpected happened.

When the vortex of energy appeared, Audrey nodded approvingly. Only a human in his early twenties could possess such pure energy; he was definitely a genius. Hopefully, his other strength was also strong enough to give Shia a better chance of awakening.

When the starlight swirled up, Audrey was shocked. As a member of the royal family among the sea creatures, she knew many secrets. Only those with the bloodline of the elves could possess this kind of starlight, and even then, only the top high elves.

Later, accompanied by Shia's humming and whining, the starlight vortex gradually gathered into the shape of a galaxy, slowly rotating in the air above the pool, sometimes bright and sometimes dim, sometimes expanding and sometimes contracting, mysterious and extraordinary.

"Who...who exactly is this person...?"

Audrey was completely stunned. She also thought Qin Mo had good aptitude and was suitable as a partner to assist Shia in awakening, but she did not expect to cause such a commotion. She quickly used her talent to conceal the starlight above the pool to avoid being seen by outsiders and causing trouble.

Many water droplets slowly appeared in the sky, pure and crystal clear, gathering from all directions and flowing into the pool, merging into the swirling nebula.

"This...is...the purest...power of water."

Audrey reached out to touch a drop of pure water, but the droplet wouldn't touch her at all, playfully sliding past her as if gently mocking her, implying that the power of water didn't belong to Audrey.

"Shia...you...you must hold on...this is the sea god's...blessing!" Want to chat with more like-minded people about "Sailing and Conquest"? Follow "Youdu Literature" on WeChat to read novels, discuss life, and find kindred spirits!
