"Jiang Yuan!"
Leng Yue raised her voice and called Jiang Yuan's name, then took a deep breath and said, "I'm warning you, don't risk your life, because you're not just An Xiaoyu's person, you're responsible for me, and for the entire oath."
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing," Jiang Yuan nodded in agreement.
"Don't try to fool me with the same excuse you used to give An Xiaoyu. I want you to swear that no matter what happens, your survival is the most important thing. On the battlefield, we are all prepared to sacrifice ourselves. You don't need to be responsible for anyone except yourself." Leng Yue's words were very harsh. She could sense that the future of the battlefield was bound to be chaotic, and separation by death was inevitable.
"No, we've all died once, why bring this up!" Jiang Yuan said with a wry smile.
Promise me!
Seemingly sensing Leng Yue's state, Jiang Yuan could only nod and promise, "Okay, I promise you, staying alive is the most important thing."
Their eyes met, and Jiang Yuan felt a little uncomfortable, his gaze starting to dart away.
Leng Yue, who had raised her hands as if to make a move, noticed Jiang Yuan's unease and took two steps back, saying with a hint of disappointment, "Then, I'll wait for you outside!"
"etc!"
Jiang Yuan instinctively called out to her.
"What's wrong?"
"Here you go!" Jiang Yuan opened his hand, and a black and white ray of light appeared in his palm. "Your lifeline was exhausted when you were in Nancheng. This is the last one I forcibly condensed using the Reincarnation World. Keep it with you just in case! Of course, I don't want this lifeline to be of any use."
"Oh."
Leng Yue took the lifeline and examined it for a long time before smiling and saying, "I don't have any gifts for you."
"Between you and me, there's no need to make such distinctions," Jiang Yuan shrugged.
"Tsk!"
Leng Yue paced back and forth for a few moments, then walked up to Jiang Yuan and looked up, saying, "Then let me give you a hug, to comfort your lonely body for the sake of all those women you have."
"What the hell!"
Jiang Yuan was so frightened that he kept backing away, but it's hard to guard against someone who is not meant to be. Leng Yue had already climbed up on tiptoe, leaving him unable to retreat or advance. He could only sigh and wonder if even women were starting to be so coquettish these days.
"Live well."
The last word was whispered by Leng Yue in Jiang Yuan's ear. After speaking, she switched identities with the merman priest and then left the Prison Abyss under the identity of the merman priest.
"Once they're gone, stop staring at their backs!"
As Jiang Yuan's thoughts swirled, the mermaid priest, now transformed into the cold moon, offered a quiet reminder.
"Hmm." Jiang Yuan immediately withdrew his gaze, otherwise he would definitely have been discovered by the people from the Sea King's Palace.
"I really don't know what you humans are thinking. You have to make such a mess of such sacred love." The merman priest said with a hint of resentment. In their merman race, no matter how outstanding a man is, he will always be monogamous.
"Don't misunderstand, we're just friends," Jiang Yuan explained guiltily.
"hehe!"
The merfolk priest scoffed at Jiang Yuan's answer, saying, "Friendship between men and women is merely a second-best form of love."
"Really? You know a lot!" Jiang Yuan raised an eyebrow at the merman priest.
“No, that won’t do. Such friendship is nothing more than a byproduct of budding love being nipped in the bud. You can say it’s pure, but you can’t deny its original intention,” the experienced merman priest said.
"Original intention!"
Jiang Yuan murmured two words.
"By the way, since you've chosen to stay, there's one more thing I need to warn you about!"
The merfolk priestess became serious. She used the profound mysteries of the deep sea to transmit her voice to Jiang Yuan's ears, "Never mess with the person living inside the clam. She is none other than the lover of Emperor Yu of your human race. After Emperor Yu tricked her out of the Sea-Stabilizing Needle, she was punished and imprisoned in the Abyss of the Ancient Sea for 100,000 years. Therefore, her resentment towards your human race is unimaginable."
Jiang Yuan: "..."
Holy crap, the merfolk didn't tell him such important information earlier! He's lucky he acted a little late; if he had offended them, he would have been asking for death.
Feeling Jiang Yuan's burning gaze, the merman priest said innocently, "Don't look at me like that. Who knew that your actions would lead to your exile to the lowest level of the Prison Abyss?"
Jiang Yuan suddenly remembered that the clam had changed color after he used the Boundless Ocean Technique. He asked nervously, "Mermaid Sister, is it okay that the clam changed color?"
The merfolk priest was taken aback, then cast a bewildered look at him.
"Damn, don't tell me that big shot has already taken notice of me!" Jiang Yuan felt a chill run down his spine. No wonder he had always found that clam strange; it turned out that the other party was also paying attention to him.
"Fine, good luck to you. Anyway, I'll be here for a few months and someone will come to bail me out!"
