Moghad did not keep them waiting long and quickly returned to his original position.
The smiles on the faces of the Dragon King and the others froze instantly, because they noticed that Mogard had nothing in his hand and his eyes were full of doubt, clearly indicating that he had not gained anything from going in.
At this moment, Cherry's admiration for Zuan reached its peak as she gazed at his retreating figure.
The Queen's husband is amazing!
When she first came out, she was a little puzzled as to why the other party would take the time to dispose of Deputy Commander Sha's body. It turned out that they had anticipated this.
Considering that the other party had deliberately changed their appearance when they came out, they were truly cunning and resourceful.
The Queen's judgment is indeed excellent. If I encountered such an ordinary-looking guard, I probably wouldn't give him a second glance.
The Mermaid Queen had now realized what was happening: "I am, after all, the leader of a clan. Your lord has trespassed into my private residence so casually. Isn't that a great disrespect to our sea race?"
Many powerful sea creatures present looked at Mogard with some confusion. Although they were quite dissatisfied with the mermaid queen suddenly having a lover, they were, after all, fellow sea creatures.
Given the Mermaid Queen's reputation, if the other party has no evidence and arbitrarily searches their residence like criminals, wouldn't they be even less taken seriously when it's their turn in the future?
Sensing the change in the atmosphere around him, Morgad smiled and said, "The Queen is indeed sharp-tongued. I miscalculated this time."
The Mermaid Queen secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Then take care."
Mogad's expression froze, he snorted coldly, and stormed off.
The Dragon King glanced at the Mermaid Queen and Zaun, hesitated for a moment, but still hurriedly followed to see them off, planning to find a chance to deal with this guy later.
The other powerful members of the sea tribe originally wanted to catch up with the mermaid queen and take the opportunity to inquire about the affairs of Zaun.
The Mermaid Queen rubbed her forehead and said apologetically, "Too many things happened today, I need to rest."
Everyone: "..."
She glanced at the guard several times while saying a few words; it wasn't that she wanted to rest, but clearly that she wanted to enjoy some alone time with him.
What a pair of adulterers!
A group of people left with strange expressions.
Just as Zuan was pleasantly surprised by the sudden surge in anger in the background, he suddenly met the mermaid queen's beautiful yet puzzled eyes.
"Come with me."
After leaving a message, the Mermaid Queen returned to her palace first.
As Zuan hesitated, Cherry turned around, smiled, and waved to him, signaling him to hurry up and follow.
The powerful sea creatures outside hadn't completely retreated, and it wasn't convenient to say many things, but Zu'an eventually followed them.
Meanwhile, Morgard and his party returned to the Four Directions Palace. After seeing off the Dragon King, his demon subordinates asked, "Your Majesty, are we just going to let this go?"
“Of course not.” A glint of light flashed in Mogard’s eyes. “We underestimated those two guys too much before, which is why we lost the initiative today.”
He had previously thought that the other party was, after all, a very popular mermaid queen, and considering the relationship with the sea race, he had specially invited the Dragon King and other powerful sea race members.
He hoped that with their witnesses, the other party's guilt would be confirmed, so that he could justify how he dealt with the other party.
His plan was also very meticulous. He anticipated that the mermaid queen would definitely argue, so he distracted her from the front and then used his bribed undercover agents to capture her personal maid for interrogation.
They thought they had it all figured out, but then a mysterious guard suddenly appeared.
Although they looked different, he was certain that the other person was the same guy who had rescued the mermaid queen before.
In the end, the powerful sea creatures he brought in as witnesses actually hampered his actions. If he didn't have solid evidence to take down the Mermaid Queen, a highly popular figure, he might very well push the entire sea creatures to the opposite side.
Therefore, his decisive retreat was not an admission of defeat, but rather a decision to wait until the surrounding sea creature powerhouses dispersed before personally heading to the Mermaid Queen's palace.
Any schemes or tricks are insignificant in the face of absolute power.
Once I've captured the mermaid queen and that guard, what's there to be afraid of about not having evidence?
In the Mermaid Queen's palace, the Mermaid Queen suddenly looked at the maid beside her: "Are you and him very close?"
Clearly, her little actions hadn't escaped her notice. She was quite puzzled, as Cherry had only met him not long ago.
Moreover, her initial disappointment at seeing that the other party was just an ordinary guard did not escape her notice. So why did the two become so intimate after only a short while?
Did something happen that I don't know about?
Cherry was startled and quickly waved her hand, saying, "No, no, it's just that so many things happened just now, and I felt that the woman... cough cough, I felt that he was a bit too powerful."
What if the Queen misunderstands and thinks I'm trying to steal the grass near my burrow?
"Oh? I'm also very interested in what just happened here." The Mermaid Queen casually lay on the soft couch, gesturing for Zaun to sit wherever he pleased.
Zu An's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly changed the subject: "Queen, I wonder where Su Yin is now?"
Cherry was about to answer the Queen's question when she heard this and couldn't help but blink.
What are you two playing?
Oh, by the way, it seems the Queen's husband doesn't know that Su Yin is the Queen.
The Queen knew her husband's identity; was she deliberately playing a role-playing game?
Hehe, the Queen is really a bit naughty.
The Mermaid Queen blushed and coughed lightly: "Suyin was slightly injured when she went to the Four Directions Palace. She is currently recuperating in the secret chamber. We will arrange for you to meet her once her injuries have healed a little."
After saying that, he glared at Cherry, silently warning her not to let anything slip.
