"Oh? Princess, come and have a look." The witch said with a smile.
"I want to be reborn early."
Hearing this, the witch laughed strangely, and the shrill laughter made Lan Yin feel a little uncomfortable.
The witch raised an eyebrow. "There's nothing wrong with being reborn early, but it's against the will of heaven, and you must pay a heavy price."
Lan Yin folded her fingers together and said calmly, "For example?"
"For example, the rebirth of an adult mermaid would at most be as painful as childbirth for a human. But if it were to rebirth prematurely, not only would the pain be as severe as breaking bones and marrow, leaving one wanting to die, but it would also last for a month. No mermaid could endure this situation. Princess, are you sure you want to do this?" The witch laughed maliciously and in a very playful way.
Lan Yin lowered his eyes, the light in his eyes darkened a little, and he clenched his fists several times. After a long moment, he raised his eyes and said firmly: "I'm sure."
The witch was slightly surprised this time, but soon smiled brightly, "So, what does the princess want to exchange for it?"
…
When Lan Yin came out of the underwater cave, he had a small bottle in his hand.
She held the small bottle tightly, her expression gloomy and unclear, unable to tell whether she was happy or angry.
Yan Xi returned to the palace, but did not see Lan Yin. She felt a little uneasy and walked back and forth in the palace.
"Silverstream."
Suddenly a familiar voice sounded. Yan Xi turned around and saw that Lan Yin had returned safely, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yinyin, where have you been? I...I went out to use the palace toilet and when I came back I found you were gone."
When Lan Yin heard his words, her eyes flashed and became a little cold. He lied to her again.
He had never lied to her before.
He lied to her twice on the same day, both times for that human.
If she had known this would happen, she should have controlled herself and not saved him!
"Oh, I also went to the palace toilet." Lan Yin tilted her head, her round eyes clear and innocent.
“…” No way, it would take so long?
Yan Xi glanced at her suspiciously and said, "Okay, go to bed early."
"Yeah." Lan Yin responded softly and obediently went back to lie down on the shell bed.
Yan Xi felt that she was a little strange, but he couldn't tell what was wrong. He was cautious and lay back on the shell bed.
He was a careless man and fell asleep not long after he lay down.
Lan Yin raised her eyes to look at him, touched the medicine bottle hidden in her clothes, and wondered what she was thinking.
Over the next few days, Yan Xi and Lan Yin grilled fish and played games during the day as usual. At night, while Lan Yin was asleep, Yan Xi sneaked out to catch fish for Antor and make sure he was still alive.
Lan Yin's anger grew stronger day by day, and he became more determined to be reborn early.
On the sixth day, Antor was found by his guards and sailors.
The guard was in tears and very excited, thanking God repeatedly.
I strongly want to take Antor back to the palace immediately.
However, Antor shook his head and looked into the distance. "Wait a moment, I still have some things to do. You guys go back to land first and come pick me up tomorrow morning."
The guards and sailors looked at each other, wanting to persuade him, but when they met Antor's unquestionable gaze, they obeyed and obediently boarded the boat back to land.
Antor waited for a long time, until early morning, but the silver mermaid still hadn't arrived.
He was a little anxious, afraid that he would never have the chance to see the mermaid again.
Just as he accepted his fate and became disheartened, a familiar silver light approached.
The silver mermaid brought him a few more fat fish.
He came in a hurry and wanted to leave in a hurry.
Antor called out to him anxiously, "Little Mermaid, wait a minute! My guards have found me. I will return to land at daybreak, and we may never meet again. Here is a map with the address of the imperial palace, and this token. With it, you're always welcome to visit me in the future!"
As he spoke, he took out a piece of parchment and a golden token from his lapel.
Yan Xi looked at him coldly, with no intention of answering. She was full of disgust and said, "I don't need it. It's just right that you left, so I don't have to run back and forth every day."
Hearing this, Antor was speechless for a moment. His eyes moved, and a plan came to his mind. He started to play tricks, "If you don't accept it, I won't leave!"
“…”Oh no, you still have a temper?!
That won't do. If this guy stays, it will only cause more trouble.
Yan Xi glared at him, pulled it over, and stuffed it into his clothes. "Okay, you can leave now, hum!"
After saying that, he swung his big tail and swam away.
Antol smiled widely and shouted at him, "Little Mermaid, my name is Antol, and I'm the prince of the Arturo Empire. You must remember to come find me. I'll be waiting for you!"
Yan Xi rolled his eyes and muttered softly, "Ah, scumbag, only a fool would go to land to look for you."
Uh…except Blue Note.
The blue mermaid who followed Yan Xi and hid in the dark witnessed all this. Her face was gloomy and she squinted her eyes as she looked at the happy prince on the shore, with a dangerous look in her eyes.
I really want to kill this damn human!
But when he thought that he was going back to land, his murderous intent faded.
Yinxi cared deeply about this human, and could only tolerate him when it was not necessary.
If Yinxi knew this, she would be very angry.
She didn't want Silverstream to be mad at her.
The thing that Antor gave him flashed through his mind. Lan Yin's eyes were cold and he quickly followed the silver mermaid.
No matter what, take the thing away from him first, destroy it, and make sure he can never find it again!
Thinking of this, the blue mermaid quickened her pace, returned to the underwater palace first, and pretended to be asleep.
After Yan Xi came back from swimming, he found that she was still sleeping. His tense nerves in the past few days finally relaxed.
Once Antor leaves, it should be completely over.
Yan Xi lay back on the shell bed as if relieved of a heavy burden, and soon fell into a deep sleep.
The blue mermaid opened her eyes, approached him gently, took the things on his body, left the palace and destroyed the body.
