Yu Ling glanced around and said, "Does His Highness have a nest nearby? Go and look for it; there might be medicine inside."
One of the merfolk nodded, then jumped into the sea with a splash.
Yu Ling wanted to carry Yu Wanwan to the rock for a while, but he withdrew his hand as soon as he touched her skin.
It's so hot!
He knew that hot-blooded beastmen had very high body temperatures, unlike the icy temperatures of merfolk, but the fact that this little female was burning up was extremely unusual, even for Yu Ling, who didn't know how to take care of hot-blooded beastman females.
He didn't dare touch her and could only let Yu Wanwan lie on the beach.
After a while, the mermaid who went to find the medicine swam back, followed by another mermaid.
Yu Ling looked closely and realized it was Zhi Yang.
He asked, "What happened?"
The mermaid told him what had happened.
He had just swum to Liuge's nest when he ran into Zhiyang, who was tidying up inside. Zhiyang knew they were the elders' people and was unwilling to give them the medicine. But when he mentioned that the female was about to die, he casually added that the female was beautiful and had a lovely name, and it would be a pity if she died.
Then Zhiyang became interested and asked him more questions, and he told others about Yu Wanwan's situation.
After hearing Yu Wanwan's name, Zhiyang was silent for a moment, then turned around to get the medicine and said she wanted to come and take a look. As a result, things turned out like this.
Zhiyang stepped out of the sea, her fish tail transformed into legs, and she squatted down in front of Yu Wanwan.
He gently shook her arm and asked softly, "Wanwan, what are you doing here? Are you alright?"
Somewhat delirious from the fever, Yu Wanwan heard a familiar voice and groggily opened her eyes. She saw Zhiyang's handsome face close to hers, his voice gentle and concerned.
For some reason, Yu Wanwan's nose suddenly felt a little sore. She grabbed Zhiyang's hand and said in a soft voice, but with a deep sense of grievance, "Zhiyang, save me, I'm in so much pain, I want to go home."
After saying that, tears streamed down her face.
The little female's hand was soft and hot, and it felt as if it had directly grabbed his heart.
Zhiyang pursed her lips, not answering immediately. She wiped away her tears and said gently, "Shall I apply the medicine for you first?"
Yu Wanwan sniffled and shed two more tears: "I don't want to, I want to go home, please help me."
In fact, she had only met Zhiyang once, and that time was not very pleasant. However, Yu Wanwan was really in a desperate situation, and when she suddenly saw Zhiyang speaking gently to her, she immediately regarded him as her faint hope.
She felt that Zhiyang wouldn't care about her, but to her surprise, Zhiyang leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Don't worry, I will definitely save you."
Yu Wanwan was stunned for a moment. At first, she didn't believe it, but when she saw Zhiyang's firm and sincere eyes, she didn't seem to be deceiving her at all.
She nodded, thinking she had nothing to lose.
Zhiyang was much better at taking care of females than Yuling, who was much more straightforward. He first applied medicine to Yu Wanwan's wounds, and then endured the burning heat to start a fire.
He asked a mermaid to catch a clam, open its shell, add clean water, and then cook the clam into clam soup over a fire. He then carefully helped Yu Wanwan feed it to her.
Having not eaten a hot fish for several days, Wanwan drank the clam soup with the shells. The warm and sweet clam soup made her feel much better.
After applying the medicine and drinking the soup, Yu Wanwan fell into a deep sleep. Only then did Zhiyang say to Yu Ling, "Why did you capture her? Merfolk never steal females from the Hot-Blooded Beast Clan."
Since the start of their war, the two tribes have stopped intermarrying. They only rob resources, never people.
Yu Ling did not intend to tell Zhi Yang of the Mermaid King's camp about the elder's order, and only said, "This is not something you should concern yourself with."
Zhiyang sneered: "Fine, I don't care. Then let me ask you, do you want to capture them alive or dead?"
If she's going to die, we won't find her medicine; if she's going to live, she'll die anyway after this whole ordeal.
Yu Ling looked at the sleeping little female, a hint of tenderness flashing in his eyes: "Of course I don't want her to die."
"Oh?" Zhiyang looked at him sarcastically: "Do you think you don't want her to die? Even if she doesn't die now, she'll die once she's in the ocean."
Yu Ling remained silent.
They all knew very well that even if Yu Ling didn't want Yu Wanwan to die now, once she reached the bottom of the sea and met the elders, she wouldn't be able to come out safely.
The elders have always despised the hot-blooded beastmen, and Yu Wanwan, being a hot-blooded beastman, will not have a good end.
"This has nothing to do with you. All you need to do is save her."
Upon hearing this, Zhiyang looked at Yuling, glanced at the mermaid beside her, and only after confirming that there was no problem did she say, "If you don't want Wanwan to die, help me later."
With so many people here, Zhiyang alone cannot rescue Yu Wanwan. He needs someone's help, and Yu Ling will be his helper.
Yu Ling understood what he meant. He lowered his eyes, his voice still cold and hard: "I will not disobey the elder's orders."
"You know that Yu Wanwan will definitely die if she goes to the bottom of the sea, can you bear to do that?" Zhiyang asked in a question, but her eyes were full of certainty.
Yu Ling closed his eyes, and the image of the little female talking to him yesterday floated before his eyes. She was gentle and lovely, with a soft and pleasant voice, and her eyes were like they were filled with clean seawater, captivating anyone who looked into them.
He still remembered how Yu Wanwan pleaded with Zhiyang in a low voice to go home, and how she said she was in so much pain.
