Chapter 414 The Little Bird's Luxurious Dowry
Huali: "......"
Oh no, this is a recipe for disaster.
She explained why the little bird had been hiding and refusing to come out, even though it was clearly there earlier!
Huali hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.
Huali was speechless.
Rosewood has given up entirely.
Just as she was about to confess, the little bird spoke first. His voice was seductive, and his eyes churned with waves of jealousy, yet he was like a patient hunter, slowly but surely drawing closer:
“Since my little benefactor has agreed to be with me, I can’t be biased. What they have, I must have too.”
Huali: "......"
Seeing the girl's silence, Yan Xi held her arm tightly without letting go for a moment.
The moment he learned the truth, he wanted nothing more than to kill them. But... more than murderous intent, he was filled with fear.
Doesn't the fact that her little benefactor is willing to be so close to them prove that they are incredibly important to her?
But why haven't they come looking for him yet, even though one, two, three... have done it?
A hint of hurt flashed across Yan Xi's eyes. He was bracing himself for her rejection or anger when his face was gently lifted up and then kissed with a soft "smack".
The little girl was a little shy, but her almond-shaped eyes sparkled. "Of course! We're boyfriend and girlfriend. Whatever other people have, our little bird should have too!"
Under Yan Xi's shocked gaze, Hua Li grasped his hand in return, her voice gentle: "Wait until you're ready."
"...?" Yan Xi slowly typed out a question mark.
Karin nodded to him, "Don't worry, I'll be very gentle. If it hurts, just bite my shoulder."
Yan Xi: "......"
After a moment of silence, Yan Xi burst out laughing again, speechless.
"OK."
He's completely out of options now.
"Let's go."
He pulled Huali to leave, but Huali grabbed his collar: "Right now?"
"Well, it's not impossible..." The little girl touched her nose, her big eyes darting left and right. "It's just that it requires the right time and place, a certain atmosphere and a sense of ceremony... How about we go back... um?"
Yan Xi gave her a kiss, his eyes dark and frightening. "Don't seduce me anymore. If you do, I'll really eat you alive."
Huali muted herself in a second.
Yan Xi chuckled and gave him another kiss, saying, "Let's go get my dowry first."

The East China Sea at dusk resembles a gradient brocade.
As Yan Xi led Hua Li across the waves, the setting sun painted the sea a tapestry of gold, red, and indigo. In the distance, returning fishing boats cast silent silhouettes against the shimmering water.
Huali suddenly realized.
Yes! This world is not just about the vast ocean.
If this sea doesn't work, then they'll go to another sea!
The thought of venturing into unfamiliar territory to dig for pearls gives Huali a sense of excitement akin to picking mushrooms in the mountains or harvesting potatoes in Inner Mongolia.
"Is this a new revolutionary base?"
Yan Xi neither said yes nor no, but simply pulled Hua Li down slowly.
A thousand years ago, when he was being hunted down, he fled to this coast with his ribs exposed. He was first saved by the ancestor of fish soup, and then he hid half of a short sword in a clam shell and fell into this mortal sea that cultivators despise the most.
It was at that time that he had his inspiration.
So when he was reborn in the Cangming Sea after his soul was torn apart and his memories were restored, he was not surprised at all that he would become a merman.
Somehow, the sea was safe enough for him.
"Close your eyes."
The sound of the waves grew closer, and when Huali opened her eyes again, a group of glowing silver fish had already swept past them like shooting stars.
Huali curiously reached out and poked the fish, and the school of fish scattered instantly.
"Where are the pearls?" she asked eagerly.
Yan Xi smiled and activated his spiritual power, and the abyss rift quickly unfolded beneath their feet.
Karin lowered her head, then suddenly opened her eyes wide.
Below, deep in the valley floor, countless giant tridacna shells were displayed, completely surrounding the entire rift valley.
Yan Xi then gently snapped his fingers.
The seashell opened, revealing a treasure trove of lustrous pearls inside, which made the deep blue seawater shimmer with a soft light.
"At first I just wanted to find a place to heal my wounds, but then I thought it was good, so I used it as a storage room."
Karin stared at the pearls covering the entire seabed and opened her mouth.
Bird...the pinnacle of bird life.
She wondered why the little bird seemed so carefree every day. Apparently, it had already achieved financial freedom a thousand years ago when it was a powerful figure.
Then why would she go to the Cangming Sea to get pearls?
These alone would be enough for her to live on for hundreds of years.
Huali announced that Liyuan's dream of "using pearls to control her" has been completely shattered!
She rubbed her hands together like flies, took out her water-based card, and prepared to start digging from nearby, but Yan Xi had unknowingly swum up behind her.
The mermaid's long, silver-blue hair, like seaweed, wrapped around her wrist, and her lips almost touched her earlobe: "These... are all my dowry."
Huali turned around with her eyes shining.
"I will marry you, I will definitely marry you."
Taking the opportunity, Yan Xi rested his chin on the little girl's shoulder, the scales brushing lightly against Hua Li's lower back. He then took her hand and led her to his ear, stroking it gently.
"Then... if I give it all to my little benefactor, how many nights of pleasure can I get in return?"
