However, the other princess seemed to be lacking interest in the upcoming auction.
Her eyes, as blue as the sea, kept moving between the seats around her, as if she was looking for something.
The Sea-Suppressing Mermaid King had apparently noticed Princess Lingle's rather obvious action, so he asked:
"Lingle, what are you looking at?"
Hearing the sound, Ling Le stopped observing and turned to face his father. He gently placed his hands on his chin which was covered with fine scales, and said excitedly,
"Father, there are humans everywhere here. I remembered that our mermaid clan has an ancient evolutionary route, the Weeping Sea Mermaid Spirit, which requires humans as materials. I think..."
"No, you don't."
Before Ling Le could finish her words, she was rudely interrupted by the "Sea-Suppressing Mermaid King".
Seeing his father's face suddenly become gloomy, Ling Le looked at his father blankly, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
She had never seen such an expression on her father's face before.
After saying this, the "Mermaid King of the Sea" seemed to feel that his tone was a bit too fierce, and he softened the expression on his face.
He spoke in a gentler tone, "This evolutionary path is not suitable for you. You should evolve according to the Jade Sound Spirit Shark path I originally chose for you."
Ling Le's eyes revealed resentment, "Why? Father, the Weeping Sea Mermaid has the power to overturn heaven and earth. Compared to the Jade Sound Mermaid, its auxiliary skills are much more powerful.
My daughter really doesn't want to be just a pretty vase." Ling Le's tone was filled with pleading at the end.
A look of deep helplessness flashed across the eyes of the Sea-Suppressing Mermaid King. He sighed and continued:
"You only know that humans are needed as materials for the Weeping Sea Mermaid's evolution, but you probably don't know what humans' true role is, right?"
Ling Le shook her head silently. She really didn't know. As for this evolutionary route, she discovered it by chance in a hidden corner deep in the treasure house.
"This evolutionary path requires you to truly fall in love with a human, and then witness his death with your own eyes when you love him the most.
Then swallow the prepared elixir to achieve the final evolution."
Hearing the words of the "Sea-Suppressing Mermaid King", Lingle's eyes widened instantly. The concept of falling in love with a human being had never appeared in her world.
How can people of different races love each other?
If she were asked to kill a human being with her own hands, it would be a swift and decisive act for her. It is difficult for people of different races to have empathy.
"This first hurdle, falling in love with a human being, is a huge obstacle for you, not to mention witnessing him die in front of you?
If you love him enough, you won't be willing to let him die in front of you. If you don't love him enough, you will never be able to successfully evolve into a weeping sea mermaid.
The emergence of this evolutionary path is a coincidence among coincidences, and it is impossible to replicate. So, my daughter, give up."
Ling Le pursed her lips, her eyes dimmed, and finally said weakly, "Yes, my daughter knows."
Seeing Ling Le's dazed and dejected expression, a sigh flashed in the eyes of "The Sea-Suppressing Mermaid King", but he could not say any words of comfort.
At this time, the lights in the center of the venue lit up, and the "Sun-Reflecting Royal Lotus" and "Yaoyang Golden Lotus" were suspended in the sky above the venue at different heights.
A soft light emanated from his body, illuminating the surroundings as bright as day.
"Welcome everyone to the Second Beast Taming City Auction. Our auction will officially begin soon."
…
Deep in the Shiwanda Mountains in southern China.
A towering giant frowned in disgust as he looked at the water that had reached his knees.
He slapped his head, making a deafening roar.
"Oh, I have to hurry up, but did anyone send me an invitation?"
Although it was just a whisper to him, it was undoubtedly like thunder when it spread out.
After thinking for a long time, he didn't retrieve any useful information in his mind. He was a carefree person and quickly threw this doubt out of his mind.
"According to the location given by the ancestor, it's probably around here. Let me take a closer look. Tsk, this water is really disgusting."
But even though he said he hated it, he still bent down, and with his huge hands, he groped for something among the mountains that looked like small mounds to him.
If he didn't find the search in one place, he would stand up and stride to the rest of the places, then stick his butt out and continue groping under the water with his hands.
About three days and nights passed, and the giant, who looked unruly and uninhibited in his clothes, finally made a new discovery.
He stretched out his arms slightly, and the veins on them bulged, as if he had expended a great deal of strength before he fished out a stone slab from under the water.
The stone slab was only slightly wider than the giant's body width, but it was still as wide as two mountain ranges.
There are some strange and ancient patterns on the stone slab, like some special array patterns.
"Hey, after all this time, I finally found it. How does one say that? It's not what it used to be."
"God will not let down those who work hard, is this the sentence?" A young man's voice sounded in the giant's ears.
"Yeah, right, right." The giant was about to nod in agreement, but when his eyes looked at the figure quietly floating in front of him, the giant's huge body suddenly stiffened in place.
Although the figure was no bigger than an ant to him, its presence was as dazzling as the midday sun and could not be ignored at all.
Even if the giant is slow and stupid, he can realize that he has met a big boss.
The giant held the wet stone slab in front of him, then slightly turned his body and ran away from the floating humanoid being.
Cangliu watched it kick a mountain away with one foot and leave a large hole more than ten meters deep on the ground with the other foot, and raised his eyebrows with some interest.
But the next moment, his body turned into a thin stream of water, instantly crossing the distance of space, and took a posture and waited quietly on the way forward of the giant.
After two or three minutes, the giant came to Cangliu. When he saw Cangliu's figure like the bright sun, he immediately stopped his mad pace.
Just when he wanted to change direction, ropes made of water suddenly extended from the surrounding waters and accurately hooked around his limbs and neck.
The rope formed by the water flow did not look very strong, but no matter how the giant, who was nearly ten thousand meters tall, struggled, he could not move at all.
Cangliu lightly hooked his finger, and the stone slab that fell into the water was lifted up by the giant hand condensed by the water and came in front of him.
He observed curiously and wondered aloud, "What is this?"
