"Did you know what? I heard that the diving prince hasn't come to the beach to sing lately!"
The seahorses whispered amongst themselves, gossiping about what was happening on the surface of the sea.
"I heard that the orcas have become quite irritable these past few days without him playing with them."
"They swarm a bunch of small fish in one bite; I have to run away whenever I see them!"
"Hehe, maybe the orcas were too rough and broke the prince?"
Considering the cruelty the orcas showed the prince, the other seahorses also felt that this reason was not impossible.
Shen Yulou was carrying her cub on her way to the Mermaid King's Palace when she overheard the seahorses' conversation.
After a moment's thought, he realized that it was not yet time for the prince to write a letter to prepare for uniting the various countries.
It's really just that he was played with so much that he's now recuperating.
But it will be soon...
He thought about how to solve this problem for a long time and finally decided to address the root cause.
After the sacrificial ceremony is over, find the witch to give you a new pair of legs so you can go to land and kill the prince.
Then she can come back and date her boyfriend without any worries.
This plan is absolutely perfect!
Having meticulously planned the details of his assassination scheme, he quickly swam to the mermaid palace.
Today is a rehearsal for the sacrificial ceremony; the ceremony will begin tomorrow.
This event is held once a year, and a rehearsal is required every year.
The mermaids' worship of the sea god was truly ingrained in their bones; they would not allow any mistakes made regarding the sea god.
"Little Muse, here I am!"
Vivian waved to Shen Yulou from among the fish.
"Where is Father?"
Shen Yulou looked at the densely packed mermaids, but did not see the Mermaid King.
"Oh, he went to the land of the gods."
During rehearsals, the Mermaid King needs to open the sacred ground beforehand to pray and inform the gods that the sacrificial ceremony is about to begin.
To prevent Neptune from becoming too busy, attending to countless matters, and then forgetting.
What's the point of them even offering sacrifices then?
Vivian looked at the mermaid baby in Shen Yulou's arms, who was obediently holding the pufferfish balloon, and was immediately overwhelmed with maternal love.
She snatched the baby into her arms, flicked her tail, and took him to see the underwater scenery.
Shen Yulou followed.
I have something to tell you!
"What's up?"
"I'm going to the mainland in a few days."
Upon hearing this, Vivian immediately turned around, her eyes showing seriousness.
"I said, I want to go to land!"
Shen Yulou's word choice was much clearer this time.
What are you going to do on land?
Vivian had a bad feeling, and the next second she blurted out a warning to prevent being love-struck:
"Let me make this clear from the start: your other brothers and sisters and I are not going to risk our own hair to get you a dagger because of your stupidity."
Although Vivian herself didn't believe it when she said that.
But considering how young and naive my younger brother is, I still have to give him a good talking-to.
What are you thinking about?
Shen Yulou rolled his eyes. He wouldn't waste his life on unrealistic fantasies about love with a man.
Besides, it's not like he doesn't have healthy and normal love.
"I'm just going to kill someone."
In response to Vivian's question, Shen Yulou explained the rest of the prince's story.
However, he only talked about the prince's alliance with various land-based nations to hunt and kill animals in the sea, without touching on the realm of deities.
"Damn it, you bitch!"
Vivian was clearly angry when she heard this, and she gritted her teeth and cursed.
"How did you know that?"
"The sea god told me!"
Shen Yulou threw the pot away without hesitation.
Why only tell you?
"It must be fate..."
Shen Yulou shrugged, and Vivian didn't dwell on the issue any further.
"Let me keep that child and take care of him."
Vivian kissed the little guy's forehead, pondering how to help her younger brother.
