Chapter 294 The King and the Non-King

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Three consecutive gunshots shattered the glass window beside Yu Zhuo. Yu Zhuo got out of bed. He activated the defense device the moment he sensed the danger.

What was fired at him were just ordinary micro-bullets, and they were not aimed at his vital parts.

It looked like it wasn't a system that was attacking him.

Yu Zhuo's expression gradually turned cold. He reached into the drawer beside him and took out a small pistol.

This pistol was left for him by Zhou Yanshu for self-defense.

As the saying goes, you need to use different and correct methods to deal with different species. It's better to deal with an ordinary person without using your own system energy.

"The window is broken, come in if you want." Yu Zhuo's body was mostly hidden in the shadows. He held a pistol and stared at the edge of the window. "I don't think you plan to kill me. What are you going to do? Come in and tell me...Brother."

Yu Zhuo had just uttered the last word when someone hiding outside immediately turned over and jumped into the room.

As Yuzhuo expected, the person who came in was wearing a silver-white military uniform. He had a stern face and walked towards Yuzhuo with a clear purpose after entering the room.

"You can guess that it's me. It seems you are not as stupid as you acted before." Yu Xiangwan pointed the muzzle of the gun at Yu Zhuo. He stopped two or three meters away from Yu Zhuo and said in a cold voice, "Come out."

"Brother, I didn't do anything to upset you, did I? We haven't seen each other for so long, and you come up here and want to shoot me in the head?"

Yu Zhuo didn't react. He threw the pistol onto the cabinet beside him in front of Yu Xiangwan and slowly stood up: "Are you going to keep this gun pointed at me?"

"Heh..." Yu Xiangwan sneered, but after not seeing him for a few months, his aura had become twice as cold, and was also mixed with many emotions that Yu Zhuo could not explain.

"Yuzhuo, how did the carp skull get into the kitchen? Who secretly instructed the guards... Do you think no one would know?"

Yu Zhuo raised his eyebrows and said slowly, "Oh - so, you were sent by Lin Shuang?"

"He really wants me to kill you, but... I don't have to listen to him." Yu Xiangwan glanced at the device in the room and still pointed the gun at Yu Zhuo, "Did you know that your parents are sick?"

He changed the subject too quickly and there was no connection between the previous and the next. Yu Zhuo was a little confused after hearing it.

Seeing that Yu Zhuo didn't say anything, Yu Xiangwan immediately showed sarcasm on his face: "As expected... you never care about them. You don't care about anything our family has done for you."

Yu Zhuo's expression changed slightly: "What did you say?"

"It's actually quite normal. I can understand it." Yu Xiangwan stared at Yu Zhuo, his eyes becoming sharper. "You and we have no blood relationship, but we have been preparing for your return for generations. Shouldn't you help us now?"

"Our king who died a hundred years ago."

The mermaid royal family originally only ruled the deep sea. They were cautious and sensitive by nature and would not easily approach the land.

Yu Zhuo, however, did not have such worries. At that time, he loved to wander around the world and naturally came into contact with many creatures outside the deep sea.

He has extraordinary abilities, and many Alphas with weaker mental bodies on the land seek his protection. Over time, Yu Zhuo also established a small kingdom on the land that he ruled.

After marrying Zhou Yanshu, the two kingdoms of land and sea merged and were eventually handed over to the mermaid royal family. However, the creatures on land only submitted to the mermaid king in name only. They had their own leaders and actually only recognized Yu Zhuo as their king.

Otherwise, according to the temperaments of their spiritual bodies, which are that of a cat and a fish respectively, there is no way they can belong to the same tribe.

Until Yu Zhuo died.

After his death, all species on land truly came under the rule of the mermaid royal family.

Yu Zhuo guessed that things were not as simple as they seemed. He pinched his finger bones and said, "I felt before that this body was a little different from that of a normal person. Could it be that you..."

"That's right. After you died five hundred years ago, our ancestors took your flesh back." Yu Xiangwan laughed inexplicably. "It took a very long time and a lot of effort to recreate your body."

Yu Xiangwan had seen Yu Zhuo when he was very young. At that time, Yu Zhuo was carefully hidden in a small room upstairs. He was almost full of IV tubes, and nutrient fluid of unknown color flowed down the tubes and into his body.

He was only the size of a baby at that time. His great-grandfather, grandfather, father... every night there were special people who would come into the room to check on Yuzhuo to ensure that he was developing well.

I don’t know how many years this went on, until recently when their parents fell ill, they told Yu Xiangwan the whole truth.

They told Yu Xiangwan to protect Yu Zhuo at all costs.

Because Yuzhuo was their king.

Yu Zhuo's pupils trembled. His former body was actually full of machines, but these people used unknown means to recreate a real flesh and blood body for him.

No wonder he looks nothing like Yu Xiangwan, no wonder his features are the same as they were a hundred years ago, no wonder he can still mark Zhou Yanshu...

It turns out that this body originally belonged to him.

"You said my parents are sick. What do you mean?" Yu Zhuo's Adam's apple rolled. He looked at Yu Xiangwan and asked, "Is it not an ordinary illness?"

"Yu Zhuo, I think you have remembered everything now. Then I have nothing to hide from you." Yu Xiangwan raised his chin slightly and said in a cold voice.

"I don't care what kind of lousy king you were in the past. It has nothing to do with me now. But I tell you, before I created this body for you, our lifespan was no less than that of mermaids. But now we only have less than a hundred years to live, or even less."

Yu Xiangwan's eyes were red: "This is the punishment God has given us."

They had no system, no idea of ​​what was happening outside the world, and even less knowledge of the existence of a stereoscopic triangular instrument high in the sky.

The main system easily discovered their little trick.

He did not destroy the body they had created for Yu Zhuo. Instead, he showed them rare mercy and spared them, allowing them to continue to nurture and raise Yu Zhuo.

But as punishment, the main system deprived them of most of their lifespan.

"I am not your subject, so I don't need to be loyal to you. But I will listen to my parents." Yu Xiangwan said coldly to Yu Zhuo, "Please...save us too."

Yu Zhuo looked at him in silence. He was silent for a moment and then said, "You suffered all this because of me. Of course I will help you. As for whether you will be king or not... it has been too long, so there is no need to worry about it."

"Put away your guns first, brother."
