Fu Li: "??????"
What the hell does this have to do with her?
Why should every single fish present be counted?
They were all hung up, their scales scraped off, and left to dry in the sun for 5 hours until they were all dried fish, half-dead.
Okay, she was just being sarcastic. The notice said there are over 1,000 deep-sea creatures here.
But her starting point...
Starting point my ass.
Damn it, I tried to steal a chicken but lost the rice instead. I didn't even get a deep-sea mermaid companion, and now I'm going to have my scales scraped off and sun-dried for 5 hours until I'm dried fish.
What a damn bad luck! It's all that administrative fish's fault!
Ginger shreds: "!!!!"
Oh ho, what exactly is the relationship between Cheap Daddy and Quanjian?
The two fish's gazes at each other were definitely not innocent; she would never believe there wasn't some kind of bromance.
Jiang Dandan: "!!!!"
The fish scales were scraped off, and the small fish were dried in the sun.
This is not only possible, it's also ingenious.
It hasn't cracked its shell yet; if it had, it could be used as a knife.
If necessary, it's also acceptable to roll up your sleeves and get to work.
Quanjian raised his chin slightly and bargained: "Every single one here, have all the scales scraped off, and each fish will be sun-dried for 10 hours!"
Fu Huan glared at his bright blue eyes and raised her voice: "Each fish is sun-dried for 10 hours. Even if you want to eat dried fish, you don't have to be so cruel!"
Quan Jian's eyes widened even more than his, and he put his hands on his hips: "You say I'm ruthless, Fu Huan? I'll give you one more chance to speak. You'd better rewrite your words properly."
"If you don't rearrange your words properly this time, I'll flood Bixu Star and drown all the mermaids on Bixu Star, do you believe me?"
Jiang Si coughed lightly, about to open her mouth, when Agares anticipated her move, took a voice changer sticker from his spatial button and stuck it on her throat, whispering, "This is a voice changer sticker. It alters your voice so that even acquaintances won't be able to tell who you are from your voice."
There are such wonderful things? How come I've never heard of them before?
However, Jiang Si gave him a thumbs up for his attention to detail.
The spirit eye beside them took in their interaction, its gaze deepening.
After giving a thumbs-up, Jiang Si shouted at Quan Jian, who was eager to stir up trouble, "Quan Jian, stop just talking and get real action. Let the mermaids here know that you have the ability to drown Bi Xu Star."
"Otherwise, the mermaids here will think you're exaggerating and lying, and they won't take your threats seriously. They'll just be trying to fool you."
Fu Li: "??????"
The ones speaking are the high priest and the little fish of the deep-sea mermaid?
Is Little Fish starting to cause trouble for his dad?
Wait, wait.
The high priest is now fawning over that mermaid from the deep sea, Spring Stream, like a lackey.
Is it possible that Little Fish is their child?
The high priest abandoned Little Fish and her mother after seducing them.
Little Fish and her mother crossed interstellar space and traversed the sea of stars to come to the Merfolk, all to find that scumbag High Priest.
Fu Li was stunned by his own imagination. The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed. Otherwise, why weren't Xiao Yu Zai and Quan Jian afraid of the High Priest?
Fu Huan turned her head and rubbed her eyes. Good heavens! So many handsome men and beautiful women, all with outstanding looks, and they didn't seem to have any problems with mental strength or genetic breakdown.
When Quan Jian saw Fu Huan staring wide-eyed in that direction, he was so angry that he jumped up and down, gritting his teeth: "Fu Huan, what are you looking at? I'll gouge your eyes out, you believe me?"
Just as Fu Huan was about to speak, Jiang Si picked up where Quan Jian left off, continuing to fan the flames and incite hatred: "I don't believe it, I don't believe it, I don't believe it! Quan Jian, as the saying goes, all talk and no action is useless. How many times have you said those threatening words? They've been completely useless."
"Look at that man next to you, wearing baggy shorts, a floral shirt, and tattooed arms. He not only doesn't take your words seriously, but he also doesn't respect you."
"Tsk tsk, I think he just looks down on you and is trying to fool you into coming to rescue those fish and prevent them from having their scales scraped off and being exposed to the sun!"
Jiang Dandan: "!!!!"
Could it be possible to officially designate Auntie as the number one troublemaker in the Abel Galaxy?
Look how lively and energetic it is!
Every fish hated her to the core after hearing this, gritting their teeth in hatred.
“You’re right.” Quan Jian stared at Fu Huan, grinding his teeth as he replied to Jiang Si, “My concessions, my easygoing nature, have made these small fry think I’m easy to bully. Now…”
"Wait, wait, wait!" Fu Huan hurriedly stopped her, "Who is that little girl? And who are those handsome men and beautiful women behind her?"
Quanjian didn't wait any longer. She gathered a thin stream of water in her hand, and the stream grew thicker as she raised her hand upwards.
Fu Huan's pupils constricted: "Quanjian, Quanjian, let's talk this out, let's talk this out. Just scrape the fish scales and expose them to the sun for 10 hours, just 10 hours."
“You’re not ruthless at all, you’re not ruthless at all, you’re incredibly kind. They’re the ones who started this trouble. Right now, I’ll have someone immediately scale them and expose them to the sun, okay? Okay?”
Quanjian raised her hand, and a huge column of water meandered from her palm to the sky: "Let them scrape their own fish scales and expose them to the sun for 10 hours."
Fu Huan ceded territory and paid reparations: "Fine, fine, just stop the water jets now, hurry up and stop them."
The strong, salty smell of the sea wafted over, and Jiang Si leaned back on the stool, gazing at the huge column of water that snaked from the spring into the sky.
With the ability to manipulate water remotely, it's no wonder he dared to boast about flooding Bixu Star. He certainly has the ability to mobilize water from other places to flood this star.
Quanjian snorted coldly at him: "I have to see them scaling the fish first, otherwise I won't accept it, and I'll drown you all."
Fu Huan, the dignified high priest, was threatened. He pulled out his high priest's scepter, wearing slippers, shorts, and a floral shirt, and raised his floral-patterned arms high into the air.
The scepter, now devoid of the conch shell and golden pearl, gleamed brilliantly under the sun, appearing as if a deity had descended to earth, infinitely holy.
All the mermaids present were enveloped in light, shocked and incredulous, and knelt on the ground in a single, devout motion, taking less than 20 seconds.
Ginger shreds: "!!!!"
As expected of her cheap daddy, this demeanor has the air of a charlatan.
Look how devout the mermaid is, kneeling on the ground, head touching the ground, hands outstretched on either side of her head, as if asking for blessings and feeling as if she is being bathed in holy light.
Jiang Dandan: "!!!!"
This charlatan looks better than Jiu Feng's little chick charlatan.
They share the same spiritual beliefs of the same country.
The little chick is love-struck and likes that ghost. Thumbs down.
Fu Huan lowered the scepter he had raised, resting it on his palm, and instantly regained his composure: "My people, you trample on the laws of the mermaid race at will, and you trample on the friendship between shallow-sea mermaids and deep-sea mermaids. You have disappointed me greatly."
"To punish your arrogance and recklessness, the 35 fish, led by the Azure Star Administrative Fish, shall scale themselves and sun-dry themselves, and pray for the forgiveness of the Sea God!"
Ginger shreds: "???"
What the heck is this "Sea God"?
Is the High Priest not the highest deity?
And Poseidon?
The interstellar era is indeed full of chaos and disorder.
The administrative fish had no idea that the elusive high priest would be there.
What no one expected was that the high priest would stand up for the deep-sea mermaid, making his crimes impossible to hide.
Now that the high priest has come out to uphold justice for the deep-sea mermaids, let alone make them scrape off their own scales and expose them to the sun, even if they were to die right now, they would have to do it.
All the mermaids present, including Fu Li, had their legs transformed into fish tails. They sat on the ground, enduring excruciating pain, and plucked out their own fish scales.
Quanjian ran over to Jiang Si, squeezed next to her, and sat down beside her. He took out some sea grapes from his spatial storage. "Little girl, I really like you. You know I'm not one of your people, but you didn't expose me. I'll treat you to some grapes!"
The green, beaded sea grapes, crystal clear, exude the scent of the sea when held in Quanjian's hand.
Jiang Si reached out and took the sea grapes. She grinned at her and said, "Thank you for liking me. I like you too. By the way, after we've scaled all the fish here, do you want to come with me?"
Quanjian paused in handing her the sea grapes: "Wherever you go next, that's where your final destination will be."
Jiang Si didn't hide anything and said truthfully, "Our next stop is the Fourth Civilization, and our final destination is the ancient Earth in the Milky Way!"
Quanjian's pupils contracted: "Let me think about it, let me think about whether I should come with you!"
Jiang Si: "Okay, take your time thinking about it. Let's look at how to remove fish scales first!"
Quanjian hummed in agreement. She wanted to go with them. She didn't sense any malice from them. They already knew she had infiltrated the group, but they didn't do anything to her. On the contrary, they took good care of her.
But she had finally found that old bastard Fu Huan, and before she could even mistreat or beat him up, he was leaving like this. She was unwilling to accept it.
Thus, the spring entered a state of contradiction, turning a deaf ear to the screams of the mermaids around it as if they did not exist at all.
Fu Huan leaned on his scepter, looking at these unfortunate creatures, and thought they really had small brains and didn't care about the consequences of their actions.
Teasing a deep-sea mermaid is an offense; if you offend a deep-sea mermaid, a single lash of its tail will leave you either dead or crippled—crippled so badly that your bones are shattered and your scales are all gone.
They believed that after 3,000 years of mating with shallow-sea mermaids, deep-sea mermaids had degenerated from their ferocity and become weak and vulnerable.
Bullshit! They don't know how dominant the genes of deep-sea mermaids are.
If a shallow-sea mermaid and a deep-sea mermaid mate and have offspring, the offspring will inherit 100% of the domineering genes of the deep-sea mermaid.
To put it simply, whether male or female, shallow-sea mermaids mate with deep-sea mermaids, and their role becomes that of tool fish.
Aside from providing a tiny bit of something, their genes, appearance, and similarity will not be inherited in any way.
To put it simply, male and female shallow-sea mermaids and deep-sea mermaids mate, and they are just deliverymen; once the delivery is complete, they have no further connection with the other party.
"Ah!" The scene had turned into something resembling a large-scale fish slaughterhouse, and someone couldn't bear it and let out a cry of pain.
After they finished crying out in pain, they continued to pluck the fish scales; each scale was about the size of one and a half thumbprints.
As he plucked the scales himself, the pain spread like a piercing wound, causing him to cry out in agony. His fish tail thudded as it lay on the ground, blood flowing everywhere.
Lingyan turned around, stood behind Jiang Si, bent down, covered her eyes, and whispered in her ear, "Master, you shouldn't see too much blood."
Jiang Si's smile froze, and she reached out and grabbed Ling Yan's hand: "They're just removing fish scales, not cutting them into pieces. What's so inappropriate about it?"
"It's okay, it's okay, I'm not a child, I've seen all of these."
The spirit eye didn't move its hand away, but gently asked, "Master, please stop looking. Let's leave, okay?"
Jiang Si paused slightly: "Okay!"
Lingyan then released his hand.
Jiang Si glanced at Quan Jian: "Quan Jian, we're leaving. Have you thought it through? Are you coming with us?"
Quanjian exclaimed, "Those stinky fish haven't even had all their scales plucked off yet, and you're already leaving so soon? Why don't you stay and watch a little longer?"
Ginger: "No, I'm in a hurry!"
Quanjian pouted: "If you're in a hurry, then... then... I won't go with you this time. I'll stay here. However, I have your communications. If I'm done with my work, I'll give them to you. If you haven't gone to the ancient Earth in the Milky Way yet, can you take me with you?"
Jiang Si stood up: "Okay."
"This is for your travel expenses, please accept it." Quanjian took out a glass bottle filled with black pearls from her spatial storage and handed it to Jiang Si.
Jiang Si took the glass bottle and looked at the round and large black pearls. Her first thought was, "I'm rich! I'm rich!" Her second thought was, "How long will Quanjian cry?"
"Okay, I'll take it." Jiang Si placed the glass bottle into her personal space, using the quantum computer as a cover. "See you later!"
Quanjian waved goodbye, a little reluctant to part. "See you later!"
Jiang Si adjusted her hat, took Lingyan's arm, and walked towards the hovercar next to her amidst the screams of many mermaids who were plucking their own scales.
Fu Huan, holding the scepter, looked at her, frowned, and said, "Wait, little girl, wait a moment."
Jiang Si didn't stop walking; in fact, she quickened her pace. Just as she was about to float up, Fu Huan darted over like lightning and blocked her path.
Agares stepped in front of Jiang Si, blocking her way, and asked Fu Huan, "What do you intend to do, sir?"
Jiang Si stood behind him, arm in arm with Ling Yan.
Fu Huan frowned, looking the man blocking his way up and down. He was wearing shorts, a floral shirt, and sunglasses—simple disguises, but his aura and spiritual power were very strong.
Like someone, but he wasn't sure.
His gaze passed over the man blocking his way and landed on the little girl behind him, who was wearing a long dress, a large sun hat, and sunglasses. He asked, "Little girl, do you have any sisters?"
Jiang Si, with the voice changer sticker on, said, "No!"
"No, that's such a pity." Fu Huan said with a regretful look, and then pointedly said, "I have a daughter who is about the same height and build as you."
Jiang Si's heart skipped a beat: "Really? I have a standard figure, and many people look like me. It's my honor to resemble your daughter."
"Please don't block my way, I'm in a hurry!"
Fu Huan didn't leave, staring at her, trying to see her true face through the veil: "Little girl, my daughter is dead, killed by her husband. I've been busy in the Mermaid Clan and haven't had time to settle accounts with her husband. Do you think I should find her husband and avenge my daughter?"
