Of course, Meng Wei was not completely irrational.

Ultimately, all she wanted was for Shen Yunhao to suffer a bit, so that she wouldn't completely offend Zhu Li for such a selfish reason...

Therefore, he tampered with the water-repelling talisman, so that it would lose its effect if it was slightly stimulated by external factors.

For cultivators who haven't reached the Soul Condensation Realm, losing their water-avoidance talisman in the deep sea won't necessarily lead to anything serious, but they'll certainly suffer some hardship.

But he never imagined that just as he was beginning to suffer, he would die...

"Your Highness... I'm certain that this was the work of the Nether Sea Tiger Shark Clan. They could have created that sudden ocean current, and they must have kidnapped that boy!"

Wei Lan, dressed in a green dress, walked at the front, her expression unchanged. "Save these words for the Seventh Princess; they're useless to me."

Meng Wei's expression grew increasingly distressed, as if he had eaten garlic from 1982.

Not long after.

"What did you say!"

The little white dragon, who had specially applied light makeup and dressed up beautifully in front of the round table, was completely stunned when she heard that Shen Yunhao had disappeared halfway. She no longer cared about her image and suddenly slammed her hand on the table and stood up, "How is this possible! How did he disappear?"

Inside the room, Wei Lan sighed and advised, "Li'er! Calm down. The Heart of the Vast Ocean is with him, so this underwater realm isn't a difficult place for him... You are still the master of the Heart of the Vast Ocean. Why don't you try to sense it first and see if you can find the child's location? If you can, I'll immediately take people to search for him, so as not to delay the time..."

Upon hearing this, Zhuli did not hesitate and immediately returned to the bedside to sit cross-legged, a faint blue halo emanating from between her eyebrows.

A moment later, the girl breathed a heavy sigh of relief, "Thank goodness... he's alright now..."

"Can you sense the specific location?"

The little white dragon shook its head. "Something is blocking my senses... but it shouldn't be a big problem."

When it comes to shielding perception, the first thing that comes to mind for Zhuli is the Illusionary Demonic Qi on Moyan's body.

Recalling the conversation between Shen Yunhao and her a few days ago using the White Dragon Lantern, Zhu Li's anxiety instantly subsided.

At the very least, with Mo Yan's true form accompanying him, Shen Yunhao's safety is quite well guaranteed...

Even so, the little white dragon is still very angry.

He had previously assured Shen Yunhao that Beihai was his territory and urged him to come over quickly.

And what happened... trouble came as soon as I arrived. Doesn't that make my role as the Princess of the North Sea seem ridiculous?

"Where is that idiot Meng Wei? Where is he now?"

"Wait in the main hall..."

"This is outrageous!" Zhu Li stood up angrily, her worried expression completely replaced by icy coldness. "If he can't even handle such a small matter, he might as well quit being a steward!"

After saying that, he got up and walked out of the hall.

Wei Lan followed behind, letting out a helpless sigh.

This was the first time she'd ever seen this silly white dragon so angry in all these years of friendship. It looked like that guy was in big trouble!

Zhu Li stormed towards the main hall, her skirts billowing, and her every step exuded a chilling aura. The maids and guards around her had never seen the usually approachable Little White Dragon so angry before, and they all lowered their heads and retreated, afraid of offending her.

Inside the main hall, Meng Wei stood nervously in the center. Hearing footsteps coming from outside the hall, his heart tightened, and he quickly lowered his head, waiting respectfully.

"Bang!" The palace door was suddenly pushed open, and Zhu Li strode in, her gaze sharp as a knife, pointing directly at the person in the hall. "Meng Wei, you'd better explain to me clearly what exactly is going on?"

Meng Wei quickly stepped forward, his voice tinged with fear, "Seventh...Seventh Princess! This was indeed my oversight, but I have found out that it was the Nether Sea Tiger Shark Clan who were behind it! They took advantage of the loopholes in the ocean currents and the water-repelling talisman to kidnap Young Master Shen. I am willing to personally lead the team to seek justice!"

In desperation, without considering anything else, they shifted all the blame onto the Dark Sea Tiger Shark clan.

Zhu Li sneered, "Is that so? Then let me ask you, why did the water-repelling talisman suddenly fail? Why did it specifically fail on Yun Hao? Could it be that the Nether Sea Tiger Shark Clan has already set its sights on the Ice Spirit Python Clan's talismans?"

“Your Highness, I am also completely baffled by this matter. Perhaps they tampered with the talismans, or perhaps they used some kind of secret technique. In any case, this is definitely not an internal problem of our clan, but a conspiracy by external enemies!”

"You bastard!" The girl's voice suddenly rose eight octaves. "Meng Wei! Do you think I'm easy to fool? Or do you think I, Zhu Li, am a fool who can't even see through this little trick?"

Meng Wei's expression changed drastically, and he immediately knelt down: "Your Highness, please understand! I...I had no such intention! There must be something fishy about this. I am loyal to Your Highness! Even if you gave me ten thousand lives, I would never dare to touch Your Highness's people!"

At this moment, Wei Lan stepped forward and spoke up, "That's true. Even if he's resentful, he would never dare to kill that kid. There must be someone else involved..."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Li did indeed calm down considerably. After a moment, she gave a cold laugh, "What a loyal servant... Since you're so loyal, then you'll be in full charge of this matter."

The burly man breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Your Highness, rest assured, I will definitely find a way to bring Young Master Shen back safely! And I will make the Nether Sea Tiger Shark Clan pay the price!"

Zhu Li shook her head, her tone nonchalant: "No, what I mean is, from now on, you are no longer a steward of the clan. Go to the underwater mine and reflect on your 'loyalty'."

Meng Wei's face turned deathly pale instantly, as if struck by lightning. "Your Highness, this...I..."

"What? You think that's not enough? How about I add another condition: you have to mine in the territory of the Dark Sea Tiger Shark Clan?"

Meng Wei was speechless, cold sweat pouring down his forehead.

Finally, unwillingly, he said, "Your subordinate... obeys."

Zhu Li snorted coldly, turned and left, "If anything happens to Yun Hao, I will never let you off easily."

Wei Lan followed behind Zhu Li and couldn't help but whisper, "Li'er, isn't this too harsh?"

Zhu Li glanced back at her, "Didn't you say that with Yun Hao coming over, all the men in Beihai are starting to get restless? We need to have a wave of monkey-killing as a tribute... a tribute..."

"To make an example of someone?"

"That's it!" The little white dragon raised his chin. "Using our own people as targets is undoubtedly the most intimidating method!"

Meng Wei: "..."

You're so great! You're so arrogant!

Wei Lan shook her head impatiently. "So what now? What are we going to do next? Are we just going to ignore that kid's whereabouts?"

Zhu Li took a deep breath and said softly, "What's the background of this Nether Sea Tiger Shark Clan? I have a strange feeling about them..."

"You can forget this? The Nethersea Tiger Shark Clan, like our Ice Spirit Python Clan, is one of the four great demon clans of the North Sea, subordinate to the Dragon Clan!"

“That’s not what I meant… There seems to be some other clue, I feel like I’ve heard someone mention it before…”
