With Fang Ruotang in control, the group settled together in a safe location.
She had barely steadied herself when she stood on tiptoe and looked in one direction, her brows furrowed slightly, her face filled with confusion.
"What's wrong?" Gu Yanjin sensed his surroundings but didn't notice anything amiss. However, he knew that his strength was inferior to Fang Ruotang's at the moment, and besides, this secret realm was her home turf.
“There’s something strange there.”
Fang Ruotang pointed in a direction.
Everyone else looked in the direction of her finger, but couldn't see anything.
Fang Ruotang asked the little mirror.
How did extra things appear in my secret realm? Did my brother-in-law's subordinates slip them in again?
This time it's different. The people here seem to have some kind of feud with your brother-in-law's men and have mistakenly wandered into this place.
Fang Ruotang asked back, a little angrily.
[That person didn't destroy the teleportation array. What are they planning to do with it? Could they one day use this secret realm to reach this continent?]
If that's the case, Fang Ruotang will destroy this secret realm even at a loss.
Their Dayong was invaded by the so-called Upper Realm. Now, facing the Immortal Realm where their brother-in-law once lived, isn't their Yun Shen Continent also the Lower Realm?
Immortals cannot descend to the mortal realm at will, and even if they do, they cannot use their immortal powers.
But isn't this just another example?
Fang Ruotang was really worried, so she told Fang Wantang and the others that she wanted to go and take a look herself. However, the people who had come into the secret realm with her this time were all from Dayong. They knew the danger of this situation and none of them had the patience to stand still and wait for an answer.
In just a few words, everyone decided to go together.
Fang Ruotang cast a spell to bring everyone to the destination, and at that moment she understood why Fan was there and why he said he was stronger.
Thinking of Fan, Fang Ruotang immediately released him. After all, Fan came from a higher continent, and divine power should be able to suppress immortal power!
"Master, you..."
Fan Yang smiled, just as he was about to say that his master had finally thought of him, when he noticed that the spiritual energy around him was different, and then he looked at the environment.
He asked in surprise, "How come it's in a secret realm?"
“Something has come from the Immortal Realm and is staying in my secret realm. I called you out just in case.”
As Fang Ruotang spoke, she had already taken a few steps forward.
Gu Yanjin and his group followed behind Fang Ruotang. Now no one would be so tactless as to run ahead of her and try to protect her. It would be a blessing if they didn't hold her back.
"Huh, it's lying there motionless, it's not dead!"
Fang Ruotang could clearly sense that he possessed a spiritual energy different from that of the cultivation world, which was why she noticed the extra person in the secret realm immediately.
"Are you still alive?" Fang Ruotang seemed very polite, but with a light flick of her wrist, the Immortal Binding Rope wrapped directly around the person in the bushes.
The tall grass blocked her view, and only at this moment did Fang Ruotang feel safe to walk up. Then her pupils contracted sharply, and her whole body leaned back.
Gu Yanjin reacted quickly and grabbed the person around the waist.
"how……"
Before he could finish asking the question, he understood the source of Fang Ruotang's surprise.
The others followed suit, chattering amongst themselves.
"What is this thing?"
"Is this a fish?"
"No, that's not it! Look at his upper body, it's a person."
“But look at his lower body, he has a fish tail.”
Fang Ruotang realized what was happening and excitedly raised her hand, saying, "I know, I know, he is a mermaid who came ashore to find his lover, but because of his fish tail, he cannot stay on land for long, so he will exchange legs with the witch and eventually turn into sea foam for his lover."
This story was the one that Little Mirror found for her to see back then.
I've read so many of these short stories, and in the end, in every single one of them, these women sacrifice themselves for love, and none of them have a good ending.
She just didn't expect that there could be male mermaids!
Fang Ruotang stared wide-eyed, curiously poking at the person with her sword, flipping them over, and then letting out a "whoosh".
"So even someone as good-looking as you has to suffer in love!"
Fan was practically deaf to reason, especially when he saw the people around him completely taken in by Fang Ruotang's words.
He said with a mix of helplessness and amusement, "Master, do you think it's possible that he's a demon?"
"A demon?" Fang Ruotang was dumbfounded. "Isn't fish a dish? Can it be a demon? That's pretty powerful! All those fish I ate before..."
“Master, that’s different. Those others haven’t been enlightened, and this isn’t some mermaid. It’s a merman, and its fish tail is golden, so it must have an extraordinary origin.”
“A mermaid! It’s related to humans, so it looks like we can’t eat it.” Fang Ruotang looked away with a hint of regret, while Fan looked at her in shock.
Fang Ruotang glared back defiantly.
"What are you looking at? It's such a big fish tail, you can imagine how much meat it has, it must be delicious! I've never eaten this before, isn't it normal for me to want to eat it?"
Brahma: ...
That's normal!
Can you please stop focusing solely on people's lower bodies?
Look at that person's upper body!
"Alright, let's wake him up first! Ask him what he did here?"
Gu Yanjin looked at Fan, who took out a magic pill and put it into the other's mouth.
Fang Ruotang said hesitantly, "You just gave him the elixir? You don't even know if he's friend or foe. You're such a spendthrift."
Fan froze. "Master, it was your man who asked me to save him."
Gu Yanjin coughed lightly, "We need to wake him up and find out the whole story before we can decide on the next step."
"Isn't there a small mirror for asking questions? Or, if all else fails, can't I just use soul searching?"
Fang Ruotang raised her right hand, spread her five fingers, and gestured in the air a few times. Her slender fingers looked extremely dangerous and lethal at this moment.
Cang Ge, who had just woken up from her coma, heard these words and tensed up on guard, opening her mouth to launch a verbal attack.
"Sir, quickly gag him! His voice is extremely dangerous."
The little mirror gave a timely reminder, but how could it possibly keep up with the speed of the merman who had just attacked? Fortunately, Fan was there; he clearly knew about mermen and used magic to seal his mouth first.
When Fang Ruotang made the gesture, Fan had already resolved one issue. She wasn't embarrassed at all; instead, she nodded approvingly, "Luckily, you were released."
Then he launched into a tirade of abuse at the merman.
"You ungrateful wretch! We saved you and you attack us? Fine, fine, let's just wash you up, roast you, and eat you!"
Upon hearing this, Cang Ge looked at Fang Ruotang with pleading eyes.
Merfolk spend long periods of time in the sea, their skin radiating a soft glow. Unlike their fish tails, they have strikingly beautiful blue eyes.
At this moment, Lan Mou looked at Fang Ruotang pleadingly.
He could tell that she was the leader of these people.
