"The Prison Abyss is ultimately just a cage! It binds you, and it binds me as well." Somo said something ambiguous. As for how to interpret it, that's up to you to figure it out. Different people will have different opinions.
"That's actually quite interesting!"
Jiang Yuan nodded with a smile. It seemed that Suo Mo was not exactly loyal to the Sea King Palace.
“To be honest, many of the sea races are too ignorant. Dealing with them is far less desirable than dealing with you humans!” Somo suddenly said.
As soon as he said that, Jiang Yuan fell silent. He didn't know if Suo Mo was testing him or if Suo Mo really knew his identity.
Jiang Yuan decided to try to bluff his way out of it again, so he said, "I don't understand what the warden is saying. Merfolk are no less intelligent than humans. Is it really that uncomfortable to deal with us merfolk?"
"Alright, stop pretending. I've seen the Mermaid Clan's Heirloom Pearl. Its disguise might fool others, but it can't fool me! As for you, you're Jiang Yuan, who's currently making waves on the battlefield. I'm not an idiot; I can see through you." Suo Mo calmly exposed Jiang Yuan's sophistry.
Jiang Yuan: "..."
He felt an urge to curse. "You saw through me a long time ago but didn't say anything, making me pretend for so long!"
"I'm thinking of letting you go. What do you think?"
Suo Mo's next words confused Jiang Yuan. Did Suo Mo have two heads and a split personality? "Say something I can understand!"
"Come, try our underwater specialty, this is a seaweed core that's been growing for thousands of years, something you can't find on land!"
Somo took out a plate of crystal-clear fruits and vegetables.
Jiang Yuan stood there dumbfounded, completely unaware of what the guy opposite him was up to.
"Oh, right, I can tell you another secret." Somo picked up a piece of seaweed and put it in his mouth, saying, "Haven't you always been curious about what's inside those clams?"
You know?
Jiang Yuan was shocked. How could he not know that the person living inside the clam was Di Yu's lover? He was just puzzled that Suo Mo could recognize his identity, so Di Yu's lover must also be able to recognize him. But why didn't she come to cause trouble for him?
"She left Prison Abyss a few days ago, it seems!"
Somo clicked his tongue, savoring the algae core in his mouth, and said quietly, "It seems she went to see your little girlfriend!"
Jiang Yuan: "..."
"Oh, and also, the group of humans who came before should all be with her, but their situation is definitely not good. After all, we men can't understand how twisted a woman's mind is after being abandoned for tens of thousands of years, so it's normal for her to do some outrageous things," Somo said unhurriedly.
"wrong!"
Jiang Yuan remained rational. He looked at Suo Mo and said, "Then why are you telling me all this?"
At that moment, neither of them spoke, but their eyes were locked in a silent battle.
"It's very simple!"
After about several tens of seconds, Suomo looked away and said calmly, "I need you to leave the Prison Abyss."
"And then?" Jiang Yuan knew that Suo Mo would never do such a futile effort.
"Then, I need the Dragon Balls."
Suo Mo's expression suddenly turned frantic, a sudden change that startled Jiang Yuan.
“The Ancient Sea Abyss is not only home to the Imprisoned Abyss, but also to the Ancient Sea Dragon Palace. I need you to retrieve that Dragon Pearl for me.”
Somo grinned menacingly and said fiercely, "In return, I will open the Nine Netherworlds of the Sea for a month. Whether you can get the Sea-Stabilizing Needle depends on your ability!"
When Suo Mo stated his conditions, Jiang Yuan's first reaction was disbelief. Based on his understanding of Suo Mo, discussing conditions was often the first step in enticing someone. Once you fall into the trap of conditions, it's the beginning of becoming someone else's tool.
"What if I refuse?" Jiang Yuan suddenly asked.
“No, you have no choice but to go.” Somo shook its head, narrowing its eyes as it said, “If you go to the Ancient Sea Dragon Palace, your companions might not die. But if you don’t go, they will certainly die!”
"So, you've got me figured out?" Jiang Yuan simply didn't believe Suo Mo, but he didn't doubt what Suo Mo said.
"By the way, the half-dead beings from the Sea King's Palace are already on their way. You only have..."
Somo glanced at the waves and said, "A quarter of an hour! No, it's been half an hour now!"
"Heh, you really are cunning and shrewd!" Jiang Yuan was speechless. This guy had calculated that he would oppose the people of the Sea King Palace, so he directly blocked his path.
Somo gave a sinister smile. Suddenly, it raised its tentacle and shattered the Prison Abyss Shackles on Jiang Yuan's feet. Then it transmitted its voice: "Prisoner 9725 attacked the warden and broke free of the Prison Abyss Shackles. He is sentenced to death immediately."
Upon hearing this, almost the entire enforcement team of the Sea King Palace was mobilized.
"You win!"
