Just as the guard captain was struggling, a mermaid swam over from a distance. His face was filled with anxiety. After seeing the guard captain, his eyes showed surprise and he swam over hurriedly: "Guard captain! Guard captain, it's great that you are here!"
His long hair fluttered wildly in the water. He grabbed the captain of the guards' hand and tried to pull him towards the palace: "Follow me quickly, the king is anxiously looking for you."
Yes, we can just hand this matter over to the Mermaid King! He just doesn't know what to do!
If the decision was made by the king, he would agree with it whether to kill or keep him.
The captain of the guards gave a few instructions to the guard beside him, asking him to keep an eye on the group of females, and then he hurriedly followed the mermaid.
The king of the mermaid tribe is named Lan Yin, a blue mermaid with long dark blue hair. He looks not much older than Bai Jing, with a handsome face and a clean and elegant temperament.
Lan Yin frowned, worried about the mermaid tribe.
Seeing the head guard come in, he put down the shark silk in his hand and asked, "Where have you been?"
His voice is like mint, which makes people feel refreshed when listening to it.
The chief guard saluted and then said, "I just ran into Shang Bing. Guess what he did."
Lan Yin leaned back, not interested in Shang Bing's affairs, but since the captain of the guard wanted to talk, he would listen.
"What did he do?"
The captain of the guards recounted what had just happened in a very emotional voice. When he talked about how he beat Shang Bing and locked him up, his eyebrows were raised with joy.
Lan Yin wasn't particularly concerned about him helping her vent her anger by teaching Shang Bing a lesson. Instead, she frowned, "Shang Bing actually dared to feed the red crabs privately and even brought a female from the Hot-Blooded Beast Tribe to the bottom of the sea!"
His hands were clenched into fists and his face was filled with anger.
The guard captain quickly suppressed his joy, straightened up, and lowered his head: "King, those females are still under my supervision. What should I do now? Should I lock them up or...?"
He made a gesture of wiping his neck.
Even if the other party is a hot-blooded beastman, she is also a precious female. He dare not attack the female without authorization. However, if the mermaid king gives an order, he will do it even if he can't bear it.
Lan Yin bent his index finger and tapped it rhythmically on the table. After a long while, he said, "Let them all go."
The chief guard raised his head and said, "King, are you really going to let them all go? They are the hot-blooded beastmen."
Lan Yin picked up the shark silk and continued to read the words on it. Without looking up, she said, "Yes, there's no point in keeping it. Those are all females. It would be a shame to kill them."
The most important thing is that Lan Yin can't bring himself to do anything to those females.
He was originally just an ordinary prince, and it was an accident that he became the Mermaid King.
The former mermaid king was warlike, and his character was exactly the same as the elder's. In order to occupy more territory and obtain more supplies, the two of them did not hesitate to declare war on the hot-blooded beast tribe and even surrendered to the God of Darkness.
But excessive greed often does not end well. The former mermaid king was killed by the beast king in the war with the hot-blooded beast tribe.
The mermaids could not have a leader, so Lan Yin, as a prince, hurriedly took over the position.
But he himself was gentle and yearned for peace, and did not support war at all. He believed that the resources on land could be obtained through exchange, and there was no need to go to war at the cost of the lives of his people.
Lan Yin and the elders had very different development strategies for the mermaid tribe. After many quarrels, the originally normal relationship between the two became increasingly distant and indifferent, and finally became incompatible.
The elder had been in office for a long time and had already established his own solid power. Although he came to power in a hurry, he was able to gain a lot of support due to his identity as the Mermaid King.
This led to the situation where although they disliked each other, no one could eliminate the other.
After a brief thought, Lan Yin decided to release those females and let them return to the land safely. This was also a signal he sent to the hot-blooded beast tribe that he wanted to cease fire.
The elders are determined to attack the hot-blooded beast tribe, but Qinglu just wants to cease fire and provide a good environment for the tribe members.
The guard leader reassured, "Are you really going to let the female go? Isn't this too embarrassing..."
Lan Yin looked at him helplessly. "What's there to be ashamed of? Females are precious and innocent. We captured those females today, but there's no guarantee that our females won't be captured in the future. We let the females of the Hot-Blooded Beastmen go in the hope that if our females are really in danger, the Hot-Blooded Beastmen will consider what happened today and not harm them."
Hearing him say this, the captain of the guards was immediately moved: "The king is right!"
The captain of the guards was very happy. He felt that he and Wang were in perfect sync. He had just been thinking about releasing the females.
"Then I'll go release the females now."
"Go ahead, but remember not to hurt them and send the female back safely."
Lan Yin put down the shark silk and swam out from behind the table. The guard leader waved his hand and said, "You don't have to go in person. I will definitely complete the task you assigned!"
Lan Yin glanced at him and said calmly, "What are you thinking about? I'm just going out for a walk."
Chief of Guards: “…”
…
After staying at the bottom of the sea for a long time, Yu Wanwan actually gradually got used to the feeling of chest tightness. She sat in the water plants, avoiding the sight of the mermaids, and struggled to break free from the restraints on her hands.
The mermaids suddenly started moving, and Yu Wanwan quickly stopped and sat down obediently.
Only then did she realize that it was the captain of the guards who had returned.
"Captain of the Guard, now that you're back, what should we do with these females?"
The chief guard waved his hand, making a gesture to drive them away: "The king said, send them all back."
After receiving the order, he no longer had to worry about it. His expression was relaxed, and he no longer felt heavy-hearted when looking at these females. He even had time to look at them.
"I really don't understand the aesthetic taste of the Hot-blooded Beastmen. Why do they like such fat females? If they were in the water, they probably wouldn't be able to swim!"
After much thought, the female mermaids are still the prettiest. They are slender and graceful, and their tails are as beautiful as flower petals.
His guards echoed, "Yeah, our own females are still the best looking. Look at these females, none of them are good. The only thin one is dirty."
His finger pointed at Yu Wanwan.
Yu Wanwan froze when she heard that.
She was indeed dirty at the moment. Ever since she was caught by the leopard orc, she had been bumping around, being pressed and locked up. Her hair was messy, and her face was covered in dust and even dried blood foam.
Coupled with her pale and haggard complexion, she looked like a malnourished and unclean female.
The captain of the guards saw the wound on her leg and showed sympathy on his face. He pulled out a piece of water grass and wrapped it around Yu Wanwan's leg. He said, "Our mermaid king is kind and said he won't hurt you. We'll send you back safely. When you get back to land, go see a witch doctor to check your leg."
