Dark Sun Lake is a huge lake, and there are some smaller lakes around it.
The largest of these small lakes is inhabited by some freshwater mermaids who belong to the illusory realm.
Today, not a single mermaid emerges from the lake, making it look exceptionally desolate.
A beautiful koi mermaid with long golden hair and a golden-red fishtail returned to the lake and saw scales floating on its surface.
These are the marks left by the fight, the marks left by the beating she suffered as a freshwater mermaid!
The koi was immediately enraged. She leaped into the water, and her two long, slender legs, which she used to walk with together, transformed into a fish tail. She jumped into the lake and became a beautiful little female mermaid with a human body and a fish tail.
She swam nimbly and quickly, and when she reached the bottom of the lake, she saw the mermaids gathered together hesitantly.
They were covered in wounds, red and purple, with many scales broken, and they looked really pitiful.
The koi fish immediately retorted angrily, "Who hit you?!"
The fish looked pitiful and dared not utter a sound.
The koi was furious. She flicked her golden tail, and golden koi energy spread everywhere.
"Oh, so you even kept it from me?!"
The merfolk trembled and said, "Little princess, it's not that we don't want to tell you, but... there's nothing you can do about the person who beat us up..."
"I can't do anything? Tell me, who is there that I can't do anything about?!"
Koi suddenly paused, guessing, "You mean... Lord?"
Seeing that she had guessed correctly, the fish nodded helplessly. "Yes, it's the lord."
Koi's beautiful brows furrowed. "Why did the lord attack you?"
Mermaids, both male and female, are the same; they can only transform into human form after reaching adulthood.
Little Mermaid Koi is the princess of the freshwater mermaid clan. She has great luck and is exceptionally talented, making her a treasure among the freshwater mermaids.
She had just come of age, and the first time she came out of the lake, she encountered the newly awakened Serpent Demon in the Nightlight Forest.
At that time, the snake was extremely frenzied, slaughtering wild beasts along the way and eating their flesh raw to fill its belly.
However, Little Koi is a huge fan of good looks.
Despite his manic and sinister nature, this cold-blooded serpent beastman is undeniably handsome.
The little koi was immediately captivated. So much so that in the end, she led some of her mermaid companions to Dark Sun Lake to follow him.
However, this cold-blooded serpent beastman, as if he had never been enlightened, never treated her as a female; he treated her as a fish.
A small, green male mermaid swam over and said shyly, “Princess Koi. The lord came to the lake earlier and asked us for salt. But we are freshwater fish, and the salt we have was brought from the sea by Aunt Sanwen. We don't have much salt left, so we wanted to exchange it for some food for Aunt Sanwen… As you know, Aunt Sanwen has contracted parasites, and her illness is terminal; she doesn't have much time left… I wanted to exchange it for some good food for Aunt Sanwen, but the lord…”
Another mermaid chimed in, "The lord thought we weren't giving him salt, so he electrocuted us..."
They're not saltwater fish, they're freshwater fish, so they don't have much salt to begin with. They're kept to be traded for something worthwhile.
And now, it's been robbed?!
Koi's face turned green: "Outrageous!!! Even if he's good-looking, he can't bully people! He's bullied me, I'm going to settle the score with him right now!!"
The other merfolk quickly grabbed her: "Little princess, you can't beat him. He doesn't... he doesn't consider you a female!"
Already angry, the koi got even angrier after hearing this!
"I am your princess, and I cannot let you be bullied!"
The little koi leaped onto the shore, its golden-red tail swaying as it split into two legs.
She took a piece of fishnet and gently wrapped herself up.
When the little koi fish saw that it had come ashore, they were afraid that their princess would be bullied, so they all came ashore and transformed into human form.
They moved with difficulty, though each step was small.
They took small, quick steps, closely following behind the little koi.
...
Wang was still washing clothes outside.
Si Yan has already quickly made a set of animal skin skirts for the four cubs.
It's a matching set, the kind that makes you look like four brothers.
She looked very satisfied.
Just as Si Yan was about to skin Wang Ye to make clothes, she suddenly heard a commotion outside.
"You damned snake, how dare you bully me?! Get your ass out here!!!"
Si Yan looked up, bewildered: "Looking for your father?"
The two children nodded: "It seems so."
Si Yan put down the leather in her hand, ran out of the cave, and pulled back the curtain.
What came into view was an absolutely stunning little mermaid princess!
Si Yan was stunned.
Although she had also seen a whale mermaid, the mermaid she rescued and named "Blue Ocean".
But this was the first time she had ever seen an adult mermaid.
I have to say, mermaids... are absolutely gorgeous!!!
As someone who's obsessed with good looks, Si Yan secretly thought—
Such a beautiful fish, how dare you bully it? How could you even bring yourself to do that?!
"You're looking for... the Lord?" Si Yan asked, puzzled.
As soon as Si Yan appeared, the koi fish stopped moving.
Because at this moment, Si Yan had just taken a shower and hadn't had time to apply face cream yet.
Holy crap!!!
How can there be a female in this world more beautiful than her?!
Among the mermaid race, the more beautiful they are, the more powerful they become.
Therefore, almost all mermaids are obsessed with appearances!
So when the "face-obsessed koi" saw the "face-obsessed Si Yan," she was completely stunned.
Even their momentum had weakened somewhat.
Koi pointed at her, his finger trembling: "You...who are you?!"
Si Yan thought for a moment. She realized that she was in Wang's cave and couldn't hide the truth from him. Besides, this was Wang's territory, so no one else would dare to mess around.
So she faced a group of beautiful mermaids and whispered, "I am a deluded female."
So beautiful, oh my god, so beautiful!
Koi's obsession with good looks reached its peak instantly; her expression changed repeatedly, and after a long while, the scene remained quiet.
The koi was only just brought back to her senses by the mermaid behind her, and then she became furious.
"Wang! Where is that damned snake? He actually stole our salt!! What makes him think he can steal our salt just because he's good-looking?! We're not sea fish, where are we going to get so much salt?! He actually stole our salt!!! Does he have no morals at all?!"
