"How do you want to compensate me?" Zu An was taken aback and subconsciously glanced down at her lower abdomen.
"Of course, you'll pay me to go swimming in the sea! You help me create a barrier to shield my aura." Shang Hongyu had just finished answering when she noticed his gaze. She paused for a moment, then finally realized what he meant, her beautiful oval face instantly turning red. "It's sweat! It took me so much effort to lift your pig's trotter just now! What were you thinking!"
Anger from Shang Hongyu: +99 +99 +99...
"I didn't say anything," Zu'an said, feeling wronged.
Your eyes are impure!
"..."
In the end, Zuan agreed to let her bathe in the sea for a longer period of time, which finally calmed her down.
The two secretly went to a deserted corner on the deck. Zu An used his divine sense to cover the surroundings and make sure no one was paying attention to them before jumping down with Shang Hongyu.
He possessed the water control ability of a blue duck, and the two of them entered the water without making a sound or splash.
Shang Hongyu was somewhat surprised, but considering his cultivation level, she felt it was only natural.
Soon, Zuan created a large barrier in the sea: "Alright, you can play around leisurely now. I'll take you to catch up with that ship later."
"Who needs you to take me? We mermaids are renowned swimming experts. Catching up with that ship won't be difficult." As Shang Hongyu spoke, her clothes fell away, and she transformed back into a beautiful red mermaid. With a gentle sway of her supple waist, she left behind enchanting ripples in the sea.
A beautiful song rang out from the ocean. It was clear that Shang Hongyu was in a good mood. As she swam, she hummed softly, and beautiful melodies came out of her throat.
Zuan couldn't help but ask, "I've heard some legends about the sea. When some large ships are sailing in the deep sea, they are often accompanied by beautiful songs that attract sailors. Then the ships are destroyed and everyone dies. You're not talking about you, are you?"
"That's a siren!" Shang Hongyu emerged from the water, glaring at him with annoyance. "Of course, sometimes we mermaids sing on some reefs, which might happen to attract some ships and sailors. But once we notice them, we dive straight into the sea and don't come face to face with them, let alone harm them."
Zuan nodded: "I see."
"Aren't you going to come down and wash with me?" Shang Hongyu beckoned to him. Water droplets clung to her snow-white arms, reflecting a rainbow-like brilliance in the sunlight, making her look like she was in a dream.
Zuan smiled and declined, "No need, you can swim by yourself."
We actually went a bit too far this morning; we should be more mindful of maintaining distance in the future.
"Tch, hasn't showered in so many days, what a filthy, smelly man," Shang Hongyu said sullenly.
Zu An smiled and said, "When you reach my level, you'll understand. Your body will be spotless. You can go a year or two without washing, let alone a few days."
"If you don't wash for a year or two, even if you're spotless, don't even think about touching me or sharing a bed with me." Shang Hongyu said with a look of disgust, and then dived back into the sea.
Zuan: "..."
This woman just can't feel comfortable unless she flirts with him.
...
Shang Hongyu swam freely in the sea for a long time, and his mood became excellent. He quickly put the incident that happened in the morning behind him and began to discuss with Zu An the next plan to deal with the fake dragon king.
After listening, Zuan was somewhat surprised: "Your plan is quite ingenious."
"Of course, I have real skills and knowledge, I'm not the kind of person who's all looks and no brains." Shang Hongyu said with some pride. After all, she was a descendant of the sea tribe, and her knowledge and wisdom were extraordinary.
Zuan couldn't help but glance at her chest, recalling the feeling of holding her that morning; it was indeed very... big.
Seemingly noticing his gaze, Shang Hongyu submerged herself underwater, staring at him with her large eyes.
Zuan chuckled awkwardly: "But if he brings other experts with him, it might cause some trouble."
