The sea he was in was shaking, but this sea was forever calm. On the altar, Xia Xiao reached out to touch the egg case, as if preparing for a lottery. Because he didn't know the prize, but knew the importance of the prize, Xia Xiao was excited. What kind of precious treasure would be born from this egg case that was as long as his forearm? I hope it's a little mermaid, this is Xia Xiao's only wish at the moment. He also wants to have that beautiful existence that exists in many fairy tales.

The jelly-like water was very elastic and was pierced by Xia Xiao's fingers. The egg sheath trembled slightly when it was touched, and then a fresh little life tore open the dark blue, even black egg sheath shell, but no little head came out.

When Ju Mang woke up for the first time, he was picking flowers in his forest. His chubby body looked like a green meatball. When Huodou woke up for the first time, he attacked him. He was so irritable that he picked him up and spanked him, but he hit his balls. One of them is cheerful and sunny, and the other is irritable, but both of them showed some performance. But this little guy, why didn't he move at all?

Xia Xiao moved the sea water with his hands so that he was at the same height as the egg case floating in the water, and looked inside intently.

There was a small hole in the broken egg case, with a blue halo inside. The halo was blurry, confusing Xia Xiao's vision, but gradually, a pair of vertical pupils appeared inside. Vertical pupils were either cold-blooded or fierce beasts. Xia Xiao felt a little disappointed, thinking that her wish to be a little mermaid might not come true. The pair of vertical pupils were watery and disappeared quickly, like a shy girl hiding in the room and not daring to see anyone.

Is this little guy shy?

Because the water spirit beast had just appeared, Xia Xiao had not yet contacted it, so he could not sense its emotions. But when he continued to reach out to the egg case, a blue light shot out from it, like a lightning in the deep sea, flashing before Xia Xiao's eyes.

Given the unknown situation, Xia Xiao's first reaction was to retract his hand, but the little guy did not come towards him, get intimate with him, or attack him. Instead, he turned around and hid to the side of the altar.

Xia Xiao didn't see its appearance clearly, and followed it. When the little guy saw him coming, he panicked and ran to the coral reef on the side. Xia Xiao had mastered the water energy, and as soon as he started, he controlled the surrounding sea water to trap it in the water cage. Logically speaking, this is the territory of the water spirit beast, and Xia Xiao couldn't do anything to it, but it was really caught by Xia Xiao and couldn't move on the spot.

In the water cage, a pair of vertical pupils timidly blocked two chubby little hands. The little hands were white, the flesh was wrapped in a circle, and there was a thin layer of webbed fingers. When Xia Xiao saw her, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, because this was exactly the little mermaid he wanted.

In that world, the mermaid in the sea is the daughter of the sea, representing the supreme holiness and the power of the entire sea. No matter her appearance or shape, she has a very extraordinary meaning. But this little mermaid seems very timid, her delicate body trembles slightly, and her arms tremble violently.

Xia Xiao quickly removed the water cage. No wonder he caught the little guy. He was so scared that he lost his strength. Xia Xiao didn't dislike the weak image. Ju Mang could fly and Huo Dou could fight. The only thing missing from land, sea and air was the sea. The sea was the best match for a mermaid like this.

The little mermaid, no longer restrained, swung her crescent-shaped tail and hid further away. The tail of this little mermaid was not the fish scale tail that Xia Xiao was familiar with, but a shark-like tail, which made her look a little wilder. Her vertical pupils were not fierce at all, but instead were filled with tears, looking pitiful. Her tears were crystal clear, and the moment they left her eyes, they became solid. Xia Xiao, who was not far away, was curious. If her tears really turned into pearls, the pearl oyster would probably be furious if they saw it.

Xia Xiao was afraid of startling her, so he half-crouched in place. He was very familiar with this posture, because he had done the same thing when he met Ju Mang.

After coughing twice, Xia Xiao's tone was extremely gentle.

"Hi, little mermaid, I'm Xia Xiao, your companion, don't be afraid~"

Xia Xiao stretched out a hand and whistled to call the puppy. Although he was in the water, it was no different from being on land.

The little mermaid dared not move. Her long hair, dark blue as the sky at night, fluttered in the water, as tangled as seaweed, as if blending into the seabed.

"Hey, little mermaid, it's dark over there, there might be monsters~"

The little mermaid was startled, and she protected her head, fearing that something would hit her. There was a strong fluctuation in the darkness around her, as if a monster was ready to move. The little mermaid was scared, but there was a wolf in front and a tiger behind. She didn't know what to do, so she just rubbed her eyes with her hands and cried.

She was scared and cried like a baby. Xia Xiao didn't feel upset when he heard it. Instead, he felt a sense of guilt and wanted to protect her.

“Don’t cry, little mermaid. Can I leave now? Just stay here and don’t be afraid.”

Xia Xiao said, backing away and preparing to leave. First impressions are important, but he had caught her before, so he couldn't lie to her now and had to leave. Xia Xiao couldn't bear to leave this shy little mermaid in this lonely space, but he couldn't force her out either. Xia Xiao had seen introverts before, and couldn't force them to do things they didn't like.

Stepping back again, Xia Xiao disappeared into the deep sea and into the altar covered by sunlight. It was quiet everywhere, and the little mermaid stopped crying only after she felt that Xia Xiao was gone. She stretched out half of her head to look at the altar. Although there was no one there, she still didn't dare to go out. But when she thought of the darkness around her, she returned to the altar.

Two chubby little hands stretched forward, and the little tail swung. Because she couldn't control the strength well, she often rolled in the water, but she still left the darkness and touched the sunlight.

When she arrived at the altar, the little mermaid finally lost her previous panic-stricken expression. The egg sheath that had been lost somewhere floated back and turned into a black dress that she wore.

The little mermaid lowered her head, revealing a white and tender double chin, and a look of joy appeared on her face. She was extremely happy. She pinched the flesh on her belly with her chubby little hands, giggling, and looked at her clothes alone. When she saw the tail, she went to catch it.

The little mermaid didn't dare to get too close to the darkness. She was afraid of the dark. When she hugged her tail, she felt safe and fell asleep slowly.

At the edge of the sea, there was a piece of land covered with green grass. It was connected to the forest and volcano, and next to the calm sea. Xia Xiao walked on it, but his expression was not relaxed, because he had something to ask Ju Mang and Huo Dou.

"I'm afraid the little mermaid will be bored alone. Call her and ask her to come out."

Ju Mang and Huo Dou looked at each other and asked in unison:

"What is a mermaid?"

This is the place that connects the five elements space. Xia Xiao's vitality tree grows here. Ju Mang and Huo Dou often stay here. They felt a breath they had never felt before, but they had never heard of the word mermaid.

"Jumang, you are like a bird and a human, so you can be called a birdman. You are like a fish and a human, so you are a mermaid."

"The word birdman doesn't sound like a good word at all, and why is it called mermaid instead of fishman?"

"Only your body and face are human, but only her legs are fish tail. So, you have more human shape, so you are a mermaid."

Xia Xiao didn't know if this explanation was correct. Anyway, Ju Mang and Huo Dou both looked like they understood it, so he didn't want to bring up the difference between mermaids and fishmen again, so as not to miss the point.

"Stop talking nonsense and call her quickly."

"You came from the sea, why didn't you take her with you?"

"She's afraid of me, but I don't think she's afraid of you."

Ju Mang thought it made sense. They were beasts, unlike Xia Xiao. Before he and the little mermaid had a stable relationship, she would probably always be afraid of Xia Xiao. Putting his arm around Xia Xiao's shoulders, Ju Mang asked in a nasty tone:

"Is she pretty?"

"You can't tell since you just woke up, but she's quite fresh."

"Shui Ling is also good."

As they were both men, Xia Xiao certainly understood Ju Mang's thoughts. No one would mind having an additional ambiguous relationship with the opposite sex. Xia Xiao thought it was troublesome and had no time, so he never thought about it. But Ju Mang was romantic and suave, unlike him!

"Aren't you afraid that Xiaoran will punish you?"

"Xiao Ran doesn't know. Besides, I don't have any improper thoughts. I just want to play with her."

"I don't believe you."

"Am I so unprincipled in your eyes?"

Xia Xiao nodded, dodged Ju Mang's wing, and ran to the side to instruct Huo Dou.

"Be gentle with others."

Huotou was impatient and turned his head away. Although he was good at fighting, he never bullied the weak, especially a girl, so he would never use force. Moreover, he had to join forces with the water spirit beast to fight against the gold spirit beast. When he thought of the latter, Huotou rushed out a hot breath with fire, like a warning.

"Xia Xiao, I have something to tell you."

"Let's talk about it when I get back. I'm a bit busy now."

Although this matter was still far away and could be discussed or not at the moment, Huodou could not help but snort and feel some resentment when he was rejected. He stared at Xia Xiao, as if he was ready to shoot at any time, and pressed him to the ground and bit him. Seeing Xia Xiao's defensive look, Huodou cursed him.

"Get lost, you bastard!"

Xia Xiao shrugged and left the space. Then Ju Mang and Xia Xiao abandoned the small tree and came to the seaside, calling again and again. Finally, there was some movement in the sea, and a shy little fish came to the shore. Seeing Ju Mang and Huo Dou, it did not dare to approach, but did not dodge either.

"Hey!"

Ju Mang waved his hand with a smile on his face. But when he raised his wings, the mermaid, who was only half exposed, dived into the sea with a thud. She was afraid that she would be beaten.

The chubby little face swayed in the sea. The little mermaid swam to the bottom of the sea, but swam up again because she was afraid of the dark. She felt the call, so she blew a few bubbles, then half of her head was exposed to look at Ju Mang on the shore. He still had a smile on his face, but the big dog beside him was very fierce.

Sensing the look in the little mermaid's eyes, Ju Mang secretly kicked Huo Dou's butt. The latter bared his teeth and was about to get angry, but he held back. The big dog lying on the ground raised his paw, which was quite friendly. In this way, the little mermaid approached the shore little by little, and the fear in her pupils gradually dissipated.

On the grass, a bird over three meters tall and a beast with a shoulder height of nearly two meters were walking with a little mermaid as long as Xia Xiao's forearm. She was surrounded by water, and it felt like she was in the sea in the air. The little mermaid was moving very slowly because the surroundings were unfamiliar, but her intuition told her that Ju Mang and Huo Dou would not be in danger.

There was a breeze blowing all around, which made Ju Mang and Huo Dou feel comfortable, but made the little mermaid extremely panicked. She hugged her tail and was about to cry loudly. Ju Mang was stunned and hurriedly explained, and she finally calmed down. The little mermaid didn't understand many things, but today she knew that the wind on land is like the waves in the sea, very light and soft.
