"I'll ask you one more time: do you want to talk to us, or do we want to give this sea area a new ruler?"
After walking back to the beach, it was Jiang Nian'an who spoke first.
The mutated octopus king keenly sensed the meaning behind her words, and its long tentacles brushed against the still-unclosed wound on its head.
Jiang Nian'an understood its meaning and readily admitted, "That's right, it's exactly what you think."
The mutated octopus king stared at Jiang Nian'an for a long time before finally lowering its head and gently patting the surface of the sea with its tentacles.
talk!
If we don't talk now, we'll die!
Having lived for so many years, this was the first time it felt that death was such a simple thing; all the girl below had to do was open her mouth, and its life or death would no longer be its concern.
"Very good." Jiang Nian'an nodded in satisfaction, pinched Shen Nanxing's arm and said, "Brother Shen, the rest is up to you."
"good."
Shen Nanxing responded gently and looked up at the mutated octopus king.
"First, I'll give you one day to get all the marine life that has already infiltrated the underground of Beijing to leave."
Second, from this moment on, you shall no longer attack the coast of the seas under your rule, and of course, we will not attack you either.
In return, we will lend a hand if you are threatened by other sea kings.
Similarly, if we were the ones being threatened, you would have to help us too.
It was called a discussion, but it was actually a notification.
After listening, the mutated octopus king remained motionless for a long time, deep in thought.
"An'an, can that seed stay in its brain forever?"
Shen Nanxing didn't urge it, but instead lowered his head and quietly asked Jiang Nian'an.
Jiang Nian'an didn't know either, and looked down at Xiao Longzhan, "Xiao Zhanzhan, is it okay?"
"I'll ask it."
Xiao Longzhan immediately connected with the Phoenix Tree Seed, saying, "Little Seed, do you want to increase your strength while lying down?"
The phoenix tree trembled, indicating that it was more than willing.
A seed that doesn't want to sprout and grow quickly isn't a good seed, let alone one that can sprout even while lying down.
"Then you can stay inside its head for now."
After Xiao Longzhan finished speaking, he severed the connection with the Phoenix Tree Seed and looked up at Shen Nanxing, saying, "It can, but it needs energy."
After listening, Shen Nanxing lowered his eyes and pondered.
It's definitely not acceptable to let the Phoenix Tree keep absorbing the power of the mutated octopus king; that would be tantamount to killing the mutated octopus king.
"Tell it to absorb the crystal every three days, and I will have someone send the crystal core over."
All he needed was a phoenix tree seed to act as a time bomb inside the mutated octopus king, making it obedient.
"Okay, I'll talk to it."
"Also, if it senses that the mutated octopus king wants to break the contract, teach it a lesson."
"Three chances, and if it still doesn't give up after three attempts, then the power of the mutated octopus king will be itss."
"OK."
Xiao Longzhan immediately conveyed Shen Nanxing's message to the Phoenix Tree Seed.
Phoenix Tree happily agreed.
These conditions are much better than when we were in the space.
It secretly hoped that the mutated octopus king would not give up its wicked intentions.
After the Phoenix Tree Seed agreed to remain inside the mutated Octopus King's body, the mutated Octopus King also bowed its head and agreed to the conditions proposed by Shen Nanxing.
If you can't beat them, you have no choice but to back down.
But it also gestured with its tentacles, demanding that the phoenix tree seed be removed from its body.
"Little Zhanzhan, tell the Phoenix Tree Seed not to let the Mutant Octopus King detect its presence."
Jiang Nian'an believed that since the Phoenix Tree Seed had the ability to make her and Xiao Longzhan unaware of it, it could also prevent the mutated Octopus King from noticing its existence.
The phoenix tree species has indeed achieved this.
It appeared to leave the body of the mutated octopus king, then paused for a moment somewhere on the coast before mysteriously re-entering the body of the mutated octopus king.
"Brother-in-law, remember to have someone send the crystal core to the spot where the little seed was just sitting."
"Okay, brother-in-law, I'll remember that."
The mutated octopus king has re-entered the sea and begun arranging for the evacuation of the marine life that invaded the area beneath Beijing.
The sea has returned to calm.
The three of them walked back hand in hand.
"Alright, the matter is perfectly resolved. Let's go back." Jiang Nian'an smiled brightly at the four people who had been waiting for them.
Yunfan opened his mouth, about to say something, when Yunhua raised her hand and slapped him on the back of the head.
He glanced at Qiao Huaxi, his eyes carrying a meaningful look.
Yunfan immediately shut up, bent down and picked up Xiaolongzhan, "Little Zhanzhan, how about sleeping with your third brother again tonight?"
Xiao Longzhan shook his head without hesitation, "I want to—"
"How about I have someone make you a golden lion, Third Brother?"
Yunfan carried him and strode forward, her tone seductive.
"Third Brother, I love sleeping with you the most~" Xiao Longzhan smiled and hugged Yunfan's neck. "When will the Golden Lion be ready?"
"Soon, very soon!" Yunfan nodded in assurance, while secretly asking Xiaolongzhan, "Can you tell Third Brother what you just talked about with the Octopus King? Why did it suddenly agree?"
After saying that, he carried Xiao Longzhan forward as if guarding against a thief, not forgetting to tell Xiao Longzhan, "Xiao Zhanzhan, tell this quietly, don't let anyone else know."
"Hmph~"
Qiao Huaxi, already feeling resentful because of Yunhua's glance, glared angrily at Yunfan's back and said, "I don't want to know!"
She turned and walked away, saying, "Who cares!"
"Wait, Xixi!"
Shen Nanchuan quickly caught up with her, took her hand, and coaxed her softly, "Yunfan is talking about me!"
"You're talking nonsense. You're Shen Nanxing's older brother, you're part of their family. The person others are talking about is me!"
Qiao Huaxi felt a little wronged and disappointed. "I used to be a bit reckless in my actions, but now I really want to repair my relationship with them."
Even a criminal deserves a chance to reform.
She never mentioned that she had treated Shen Nanxing so badly in the past just to vent her anger for Shen Nanchuan.
He took all the blame upon himself.
"Don't overthink it, he's talking about me, because you and I are family!"
Shen Nanchuan lowered his head and stood very close to Qiao Huaxi, his warm breath brushing against the back of her ear.
Qiao Huaxi's face flushed red, and even her ears turned red.
Shen Nanchuan stared at that splash of red, and suddenly his mouth went dry. He couldn't resist and leaned in to kiss it.
"Hey, what are you doing? And in front of other people!"
Qiao Huaxi said this, but her heart was beating faster and faster, and the corners of her mouth were turning up higher and higher, all of which told the story of her happiness.
"There's no one else, just you and me."
Shen Nanchuan reached out and pulled Qiao Huaxi into his arms, then walked towards the car they had driven.
Qiao Huaxi then realized that Shen Nanxing and his group of five had already driven away without her noticing.
Shen Nanchuan knew this.
Because Jiang Nian'an and Shen Nanxing gave him a thumbs up as they passed by.
