The Mermaid Queen was taken aback: "Sea creatures and demons are of course two completely different races. Why do you have such a question, brother?"
Princess Peacock also looked at Zu An with curiosity, clearly surprised that the other party would misunderstand such common sense.
"Because the sea race in the future world is part of the demon race, that's why I had this misunderstanding," Zuan explained.
Princess Peacock was overjoyed: "It seems that the demon race and the sea race did indeed unite in history."
The Mermaid Queen, however, was somewhat worried: "Could it be that in future generations our sea race will still be swallowed up by the demon race?"
Although she firmly opposed the sea creatures' allegiance to the extraterrestrial demons, she also did not want to be swallowed up by the demon race.
Zuan smiled and said, "You don't need to worry. The sea races of later generations also possess a strong sense of independence, and can be described as obeying orders but not proclamations."
He recalled the way the sea tribe and the demon tribe interacted back then, and suddenly realized why he felt that the sea tribe had a different status from the other tribes of the demon tribe.
The old Demon Emperor also spends a lot of money and resources every year to win over the sea creatures, and the strength of the sea dragon king is not much weaker than that of the human emperor and the demon emperor.
Hearing him say this, the Mermaid Queen was relieved and slowly said, "We sea people were born in the sea. When there was a sea in the world, there was our sea people. According to ancient legends, our history is much longer than that of the demon race and the human race."
"The sea races are numerous and their lifestyles and customs vary greatly, but they all share a common belief: the sea god. Legend has it that we were born because of the sea god, and we have been able to survive for countless ages because of the sea god's protection..."
As she recounted some legends about the sea god, Zu'an's heart stirred: "The sea god is a woman?"
The Mermaid Queen shook her head slightly: "The sea god has no gender. Of course, whether it is within the sea race or the demon race, they tend to believe that the sea god is female."
Zuan exclaimed, "Since you worship the sea god, you should have his statue."
The Mermaid Queen smiled faintly, her smile exceptionally bright and captivating: "The statues of gods are all solemn and majestic. The statues of gods from different tribes of sea creatures even look different, so basically none of us believe that they are the true appearance of the sea god."
Zuan nodded secretly. In his previous life, he had seen many statues of gods in various temples and monasteries, but did those gods really look like that?
He then inquired about the sea god, but unfortunately, the mermaid queen didn't know much either. In fact, the entire sea race was unsure whether the sea god was real or just a form of faith.
Zuan had no choice but to give up the idea of asking further. Having experienced too much, he knew that secrets in this world required a price and a stroke of luck, and that the truth could only be known at a specific time.
Because of the previous topic of the sea race belonging to the demon race, the mermaid queen and the peacock princess were very curious about the situation in the future and kept pestering him to tell them about the future world.
After spending time together, everyone had become familiar with each other. In addition, the two girls used all sorts of sweet talk and even coquettish tactics to plead with him. Helpless, Zu An told them about the situation in the future. Of course, he was careful not to reveal anything that could affect history.
Even so, the two women listened with rapt attention, and were particularly eager to see what would happen in the future.
Time passed slowly, and the three of them gradually fell asleep as sleepiness overcame them.
When the mermaid queen woke up the next day, she found herself lying in the same bed as Zaun.
She nestled into his arms, her head pressed against his chest.
Seeing all this, her face instantly turned red, and she hurriedly tried to recall what had happened last night.
It seemed that everyone was a little tired because they had been talking for too long, so Princess Peacock suggested that they listen while lying in bed.
Although the mermaid queen thought the suggestion was a bit outrageous, she didn't really object to sleeping in the same bed with Zaun.
And since there were other people present, there was no fear that anything might happen.
Brother Zu hesitated for a moment, but Princess Peacock was full of energy and encouraged him. She even said something like, "What's there to be afraid of when everyone is in such a good mood? Could it be that you have evil thoughts about us?"
Brother Zu couldn't refuse, so everyone lay in bed and continued talking about things from later generations.
Fortunately, the bed on the crystal boat was spacious, and the three of them had plenty of room to lie down together. So after the initial shyness, everyone quickly returned to normal.
As I listened to him and smelled his scent, I unknowingly fell asleep.
The Mermaid Queen secretly regretted her carelessness; she had actually managed to fall asleep next to a man...
However, she quickly gave a bitter smile. If it were anyone else, she would never be in the same room with a man like this, so she wasn't afraid of anything happening.
Moreover, given the current situation, she felt that her clothes were intact, and she was somewhat disappointed that nothing had happened.
She carefully tried to move the hand next to her head away, but when she touched it, the skin felt like smooth jade, clearly not her brother Zu's hand.
She quickly looked to the side, her expression immediately becoming strange and unusual.
It turned out that Princess Peacock was sleeping on the other side. Compared to her own ladylike sleeping posture, the other party's sleeping posture was much more unrestrained.
She turned her body to the side, wrapped her arms around Brother Zu's neck, and draped one of her thighs over him, as if trying to trap him.
The mermaid queen blushed, thinking to herself that the demon girl was indeed unrestrained; if she were to sleep like that, she would probably be embarrassed to death.
Princess Peacock slowly woke up because her hand had been moved. She subconsciously rubbed her eyes and then saw the situation in the room. Her originally fair and snow-white face instantly turned red.
No matter how enthusiastic and lively she is, she is still just a young girl. Now she has spent the whole night sleeping with a man in her arms—no, she should be said to have slept with him between her legs, plus there are other witnesses.
In that instant, she even considered killing them.
"Good morning." Princess Peacock quickly withdrew her leg and smiled awkwardly at the Mermaid Queen.
Seeing the other person's enigmatic smile, the girl's resolve to silence him strengthened even further.
Hmph, if it weren't for the Queen's kindness to me, and the fact that I couldn't beat her...
Thinking back to the excuse my older brother used when he saved me from the Dragon King of the North Sea, I thought it was absurd at the time, but I never expected that the three of us would actually sleep in the same bed for one night.
After the two women got up and tidied their clothes and hair, Zu An slowly woke up and said, "Good morning."
"Good morning!" Both girls, one big and one small, had slightly flushed cheeks.
Zuan had naturally woken up long ago. In fact, he had been feeling quite uncomfortable all night. What normal man would remain unmoved with a beautiful woman in his arms?
Especially since they're both together!
The mermaid queen was alright; when she was asleep, she was very quiet except for instinctively snuggling up to him.
But Princess Peacock couldn't sleep soundly. She was either hugging or tugging at me, and she kept rubbing against me. To be honest, I had to thank myself for my increased cultivation and experience, which made my willpower much stronger than before, and that's how I managed to control myself.
An awkward silence fell over the room. The Mermaid Queen tried to change the subject: "We should be nearing Purple Ganoderma Cliff soon, but I wonder if it's the location of the legendary Fiery Cloud Cave..."
Before she could finish speaking, the crystal boat suddenly shook violently, and the two women almost fell over.
Zuan caught them, his expression grave, as if the crystal boat had bumped into something.
