The demon royal court spends huge sums of money every year to win over the sea creatures, and has long been suffering from this problem.
The demon race's high-ranking members even frequently discussed whether it was worth spending so much every year just to gain the sea race's nominal submission.
Since that's the case, Zuan might as well take this opportunity to completely resolve these historical issues.
He was clearly just a regent, yet he kept deciding who would inherit the throne, and no one present doubted his ability to do so.
Regardless of his noble status among humans and demons, or his current extraordinary cultivation level, he is capable of accomplishing this task.
The sea creatures throughout the mourning hall were overjoyed: "Thank you, Regent!"
If everyone initially respected Shang Hongyu mainly due to circumstances, now everyone is genuinely happy.
After all, only if she becomes the Sea Queen can she bring this imperial throne to the sea race. This is something that countless Sea Queens have pursued throughout the ages.
At this moment, Shang Hongyu looked at Zuan with tenderness in her eyes: "Since everyone calls you Regent, from now on you are also the Regent of the Sea Clan. This will always be your home, and you are welcome to come back anytime."
Upon hearing her words, everyone wore a warm, aunt-like smile.
Everyone felt it was only natural to appoint him as regent, since he was regent for both the human and demon races.
The crowd initially felt that the reward was too lenient. Now, this position of regent was not a gift from the sea tribe; on the contrary, it was the sea tribe's honor that he was willing to be the regent.
But upon hearing Shang Hongyu's next sentence, everyone felt relieved. No amount of reward could compare to the strength of emotional bonds.
It seems she took to heart the advice everyone gave her in private.
Fortunately, our sea tribe has such a beautiful and charming queen, no, we should call her empress now.
At the Dragon King's memorial hall, led by Elder Zhang, the ministers began to discuss various details, including the enthronement ceremony, with Shang Hongyu.
Zuan wasn't involved in these details; he simply stayed put, standing there to support Shang Hongyu.
After dawn, seeing that Shang Hongyu had completely brought the situation under control, Zu An was relieved and bid her farewell before leaving.
When they parted, Shang Hongyu felt very reluctant to leave and held his hand, asking, "Can you not go?"
"I still have some things to take care of with the humans. I'll come back to see you after I'm done there," Zuan said, gently stroking her face to comfort her.
Shang Hongyu bit her lip, knowing he had important matters to attend to, and did not try to stop him. Instead, she handed him the Crown of the Sea God: "You may encounter some powerful demons next, and this Crown of the Sea God will be more useful to you than to me."
Zaun smiled and placed the Crown of the Sea God back on her head: "Don't worry, I don't need this anymore. On the contrary, you are about to become the new Sea Emperor, so how can your coronation ceremony be without this crown?"
His Blue Fly ability was already aquatic, and now, after using the Crown of the Sea God, his understanding of this aspect has reached a new level.
Especially now that the "Skill System" has been activated, he can learn the skills on the Sea God's Crown since he has come into contact with it.
Originally, the skills on the Crown of the Sea God required an enormous amount of rage. However, Blue Duck's abilities were similar to those of the Crown of the Sea God. In addition, after communicating with the will of heaven and earth, he gained a deeper understanding of power. Therefore, he only needed to spend 10,000 rage points to fully learn the abilities of the Crown of the Sea God. Naturally, he no longer needed to carry the Crown of the Sea God with him.
Shang Hongyu was deeply moved after hearing this and hugged him tightly: "Grandpa..."
Just then, a soft cough sounded from the side. The two turned around and saw that it was Shang Liuyu who had rushed over after hearing the news.
Shang Liuyu was somewhat at a loss and said awkwardly, "It seems I've come at the wrong time."
