"The Merfolk have a method to condense a Mermaid Pearl. I hope Miss Leng Yue can help the Merfolk condense a Mermaid Pearl. In return, we can temporarily lend you the power of the divine artifact Mermaid Pearl to help you enter the Ancient Sea Abyss." The Merfolk Elder spoke very directly.
Upon hearing this, Nie Zhen simultaneously transmitted his voice to Jiang Yuan and Leng Yue, saying, "Don't be surprised. Last time, Xiao Yu helped them condense a mermaid pearl before they received help from the mermaid clan."
Both of them frowned, exchanged a glance, and then Jiang Yuan spoke up, asking, "Elder, Leng Yue can help, but there are some questions we really don't understand. Could you please answer them for us?"
"you say!"
The mermaid elder seemed to have guessed what they wanted to ask and was not in a hurry.
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Yuan calmly said, "Leng Yue is a human. How can she help you condense the mermaid pearl? Also, will condensing the mermaid pearl have any adverse effects on your body? Why do you want her to help you condense the mermaid pearl?"
"Humans cannot condense mermaid pearls through normal means, but we have a secret method to help Miss Leng Yue condense her own mermaid pearl using the divine artifact, the Mermaid Pearl. As for whether it will have any impact!"
The mermaid elder nodded and said, "There will definitely be an impact. The mermaid pearl is unique to our mermaid race, and the same is true for your human race. It represents the power of pure water. Once it is condensed, it cannot be changed, and once it is lost, there will be no chance to condense a mermaid pearl again."
"But since you are human, there is nothing to worry about, because you are destined not to cultivate the Mermaid Pearl in this life, so losing one will not have a big impact."
Jiang Yuan glanced at Leng Yue; he needed an answer that could read minds.
“He wasn’t lying.” Leng Yue gave Jiang Yuan the information she obtained from the Fallen Moon Bracelet; everything the Mermaid Elder said was true.
"And you want to know why we need her help to condense the mermaid pearl?"
The mermaid elder hesitated slightly when he raised this issue, but finally spoke up: "Because the battlefield has started this time, the ownership of the mermaid pearls has not been determined. We need external forces to catalyze the mermaid pearls so that they can choose their owners as soon as possible, so that a new leader can emerge for the mermaid race."
Mermaids are a very complex race. Their strongest members will be male merfolk, but their leaders will definitely be female merfolk, because only women can comprehend the power of pure water and lead the merfolk to survive in the chaotic battlefield.
"How was it?" Jiang Yuan asked Leng Yue again, confirming whether her answer was correct.
But this time, Leng Yue couldn't give an answer because the Fallen Moon Bracelet's ten-minute mind-reading time had already ended.
“I can help.” Leng Yue gave the mermaid elder a direct answer. Regardless of whether it would harm her, she would agree because it was the fastest way for Jiang Yuan to find An Xiaoyu.
Jiang Yuan paused for a few seconds, but did not stop him.
Not wanting to waste time, Leng Yue immediately said, "Tell me how to condense the mermaid pearl, and I'll start condensing it now."
"When the heart is filled with love, tears well up under the moon."
The mermaid elder kept everyone in suspense for a moment, then continued, "Miss Leng Yue must have someone she loves, right?"
Hearing this question, Leng Yue didn't know how to answer, but she had already made a promise last time, so she wouldn't go back on her word.
"No!" Leng Yue shook her head firmly.
"Impossible! Could it be that the mermaid pearl is misinterpreting something?" The mermaid elder looked astonished.
"It wasn't originally like that..."
Leng Yue was about to tell the truth, but Jiang Yuan quickly stepped forward and put his arm around her shoulder, smiling as he said, "Girls are shy, how could they admit such a thing to someone's face!"
"You agree, right?"
Jiang Yuan winked at Leng Yue and pleaded in a telepathic voice, "Help me out, and I'll be very grateful in the future."
"What should I do? The fluctuations in the mermaid pearl weren't caused by me at all." Leng Yue glared back. This was practically forcing her to climb a tree like a sow; she couldn't even do it if she wanted to!
"Don't worry about that, leave it to me. I absolutely won't let you lose face in front of others," Jiang Yuan assured him.
“Miss Leng Yue, you must tell the truth, because it is impossible to successfully condense a qualified mermaid pearl without tears of deepest affection,” the mermaid elder said with some concern.
"Please help me, I'm begging the beautiful and generous Yueyue!" Jiang Yuan made a final effort.
Leng Yue chuckled inwardly, but outwardly feigned a conflicted expression and said, "I do have someone I like, but he died of syphilis six years ago."
Jiang Yuan: "..."
Hearing this explanation, the mermaid elder breathed a sigh of relief and exclaimed, "Miss Leng Yue is truly deeply devoted. Six years have passed, and you still can't forget your beloved. You will surely be able to condense a pure mermaid pearl!"
Jiang Yuan was speechless. You all believe that? Are you out of your minds? Didn't you hear her say she was only twenty? Six years ago! Six years ago she was fourteen. What does she know about love and romance at that age?
