Unwilling to give up, Mu Nancheng continued to wield his trident, gathering spiritual power in a final desperate attempt.
A crystal-blue spiritual energy swirled around him, with wisps of light shimmering, giving him an almost earth-shattering aura.
Upon seeing this, the people of Atlantis fell silent, raising their heads in anticipation of the success of Munan City.
Unfortunately, just as Mu Nancheng was about to launch this final attack, Si Jin suddenly used his divine power to control the volcano.
Rumble—
Mars erupted, and magma gushed out wildly.
Sizzle—
The black fishtail of Mu Nancheng was scalded until it was burnt.
Even the fake trident in his hand was scalded into a puddle of water.
"Aaaaaah!"
Mu Nancheng screamed as his skin was scalded. His body plummeted and crashed to the ground with a thud, creating a string of bubbles.
If it weren't for two guards catching him, he would probably have been smashed to pieces long ago.
Something happened in Munan City, plunging the entire mermaid community into panic once again.
Some cried out in alarm, wanting to flee their homes; some cursed the incompetence and corruption of Munan City; some were heartbroken and cried out for the sea god to descend once more.
At this moment, Si Jin, together with his lover, revealed himself on the summit of the volcano.
The young man, his white hair flowing, quietly looked down at the people on the ground.
Mu Linyuan swam back to the ground, stood at the front, explained his background, and used his spiritual power to play the last recording left by the old sea lion before its death.
After he and Si Jin took the old sea lion out of the water prison, they left behind this recording. The old sea lion then chose to commit suicide, ending its boundless suffering.
The old sea lion was a wise and capable prime minister known to everyone in Atlantis during the previous dynasty.
After he left, Mu Nancheng told the public that he had chosen to follow the old leader and commit suicide.
But I never expected it to turn out like this.
The merfolk fixed their gazes on Mu Nancheng, their eyes bloodshot with intense hatred.
"No wonder the volcano was angry; it was your crime that caused it!"
"Mu Nancheng murdered his father and mother and imprisoned the Sea God. He deserves to be thrown into the volcano as a sacrifice to appease its wrath!"
"Burn Mu Nancheng to death, burn Mu Nancheng to death!"
Mu Nancheng's body was charred black, and his facial expression was extremely ferocious due to pain and despair.
He laughed heartily, his emotions bordering on mania:
"Fools! A bunch of fools! Do you think burning me to death will quell the volcano?"
Don't be silly! The trident is already destroyed. So what if Mu Linyuan brings back the White-Haired Sea God?!
Si Jin is such a useless person. All she can do is cry in Mu Linyuan's arms. She can't do anything at all!
How can he possibly save you?!
At this moment, Mu Linyuan turned his gaze:
"Then you needn't trouble yourself, my Poseidon. Even without the trident, I can still quell the volcano!"
Mu Linyuan spoke with a powerful voice, calling on millions of mermaids to look up to his god.
Mu Nancheng firmly refused to believe it, even finding it utterly ridiculous.
He had seen Si Jin's weak and incompetent appearance before. If Si Jin hadn't been a coward, he would have died under Mu Linyuan's sword long ago.
Therefore, he firmly believed that even he could not quell the underwater volcano, so Si Jin, that good-for-nothing who only knew how to act cute, could not possibly do it!
If these fools are willing to wait, then let them wait!
Anyway, once Si Jin is burned to ashes by the lava, Mu Linyuan's rumors will be disproven.
These mermaids had to acknowledge him as their king and move with him!
Mu Nancheng raised his eyes and stared intently at Si Jin, eagerly anticipating the sight of him being swallowed by the volcano.
However, at the summit of the volcano, the white-haired youth was truly helpless.
He simply channeled his divine power into water, turning it into ice, and created a giant cage.
boom--
The cage was laid down in a massive, all-encompassing manner, completely enveloping that simmering, active volcano.
The lava was contained, forcing the raging volcano to cease its activity.
Moreover, it seems they can never escape this solid cage made of ice!
The entire venue was silent for a full fifteen seconds.
After realizing what Si Jin had done, the mermaids hugged and cheered.
They were celebrating their survival like madmen.
While the whole city rejoiced, Mu Nancheng's face suddenly drained of all color.
