…
"The spy has been caught!"
The members of the Chi Ri tribe, who had just returned to their respective homes, ran out again and gathered together.
Because he suspected that the so-called spy was his own believer, Shi Wuqing arrived very early.
In the hall, the so-called spy was lying on the ground in a mess with his hands and feet tied.
It was a young woman, her face could not be seen clearly because of her messy hair that covered her cheeks.
But she has something very special - under her body, where her legs should be, there is a beautiful fish tail.
But the scales on the fish's tail were dull and there were many tiny wounds with blood flowing from them.
This woman is not a human, but a mermaid.
She seemed to have known her future fate long ago. No matter what people around her said, she remained motionless and lifeless.
"That's what she stole!"
"How did you get in?"
"A mermaid actually showed up here... How bold!"
"The Saint Lady just tested this person and found that he is a follower of the Star Elm God..."
When Bai Xiaolu came in, he didn't pay attention to the new species of mermaid on the ground, but looked at Shi Wuqing first.
"Sister!" He ran over excitedly.
He Niao then followed and walked to Shi Wuqing's side.
The boy blinked and said, "Now, your suspicion has been completely cleared."
He was referring to the fact that Shi Wuqing was previously considered a spy.
Although You Ling clearly said it was a misunderstanding, something was really lost in the clan after all, and Shi Wuqing happened to be an outsider who appeared at this time... Although people trusted You Ling, they still had some suspicions about Shi Wuqing.
But things are different now.
"Yes, yes! Besides, Sister You said that this person is a follower of Lord Xingyu! There must be no misunderstanding!" Bai Xiaolu said happily.
His eyes were sparkling with joy, but when he looked up, he found that the girl was just looking down at the sinner in the middle with no expression.
Bai Xiaolu asked dully, "Sister, are you unhappy?"
Why?
——“Everyone!”
At this moment, everyone arrived. You Ling stood high at the top, his cold voice filled with disgust and murderous intent:
"It has been confirmed that this mermaid is a follower of the Star Elm God! She infiltrated Lord Jinwu's territory and stole valuable items from my Scarlet Sun Clan... Now, in the name of the Scarlet Sun Saint, I hereby sentence her to death!"
The people below applauded.
Someone asked, "Lady Saint, what kind of death penalty should be imposed?"
You Ling said coldly, "Supplies are in short supply now, and food is getting less and less every day. Let's kill her and share the food."
Someone whistled and others clapped excitedly.
He Niao frowned and said, "Mermaids taste bitter..."
Bai Xiaolu was stunned for a moment. He glanced at the mermaid on the ground quietly. His big eyes flashed, and he didn't know what she was thinking.
The matter should have ended there, but no one expected that after You Ling finished speaking, he looked at Shi Wuqing again and said, "So... what do you think, Miss Shi?"
People were stunned.
Even if Shi Wuqing can live with them... after all, he is a latecomer, right?
Why are you still asking her?
However, people did not show any dissatisfaction. They had infinite patience and tolerance towards their own kind.
People just looked at the girl in white curiously.
The girl, facing everyone's gaze, showed no shyness or embarrassment. She said softly, "It's all right."
There was no mercy in that voice, nor any excitement about the impending execution of the pagans; it was light and pleasant like a breeze.
This was not an eye-catching answer, but the next second after the voice sounded, the lifeless mermaid suddenly raised her head!
She looked exactly where the sound came from.
Then, I met a pair of eyes as bright as stars.
The girl in white stood in the dimly lit hall, with a slender figure and snow-white skin, looking at her quietly and gently.
The mermaid was stunned.
Suddenly a tear fell from the corner of her eye, and the tear turned into pearls in the air and fell to the ground.
“Pah.”
That is...
What is that?
The mermaid made an anxious "woooo" sound from her blocked mouth, and pearls fell to the ground one after another.
Is it Lord Xingyu?
Is it her?
Although it doesn't have the overly bright divine power it once had, but... with this voice and this appearance, she absolutely would not mistake it!
That was the god who brought her out of the sea and gave her a new life!
…
"She...what's wrong with her?" Bai Xiaolu was startled by the mermaid's sudden reaction. He jumped in front of Shi Wuqing in response, guarding against the mermaid.
He Niao drew a knife from his waist and pointed it at the mermaid, but his eyes narrowed in suspicion: "This kind of reaction... the mermaid knows Sister Shi, right?"
This was the first time he called "Sister Shi", and the meaning it revealed was very dangerous.
Bai Xiaolu jumped up and down: "How is that possible! Don't talk nonsense!"
But the mermaid's attitude was too obvious, and the others were also a little suspicious.
You Ling knew Shi Wuqing's identity as "God's Messenger" and was about to help her cover up, when suddenly, the hall shook violently!
The light flickered twice and went out.
People turned on the backup lights, only to see the tables, chairs, and walls inside the house begin to move...
"Get out!" You Ling's face changed.
She didn't need to say anything; others knew to run away when they saw this scene.
Everyone evacuated quickly, leaving only the mermaid behind.
Shi Wuqing did not go to save her, but just exchanged glances with her.
The mermaid curved her moist eyes and revealed a charming smile that only belonged to a siren.
——The faith of Star Elm believers comes from protecting Star Elm.
And knowing that Xingyu is still alive is the most powerful source of strength.
The mermaid at this moment is completely different from the weak and dying her just now.
