Sure enough, in the reception hall of the mermaid clan, there were seven or eight elders of the mermaid clan sitting there, including men, women, young and old.
Just as Xu Yang predicted, the mermaid queen's politeness did not mean that these elders were easy to talk to. When they saw Xu Yang and the other two outsiders, the joy on their faces about the safe return of Princess Lolita disappeared instantly. What's more, the chief elder with black scales on the left snorted coldly, exuding a powerful aura.
In just a moment, the direction where Xu Yang and the other two were was completely separated by an extremely cold water-attributed aura.
Fortunately, Xu Yang was standing in the front, and his aura was not a threat to the elder. However, with a slight smile, he resolved the pressure in the most peaceful way, neither hitting the opponent in the face and exposing his edge too much, nor losing the face of the three of them.
"Great Elder, these three are our guests. They saved Lolita."
The queen spoke softly and gave a few pointers, and the great elder's arrogance immediately subsided. It can be seen that this beautiful mermaid queen is still very majestic among the entire tribe.
"Please take a seat, my three guests. I will prepare a banquet as a thank you later."
Xu Yang chuckled and clasped his fists towards the mermaid queen: "We appreciate your kindness, Her Majesty the Queen. Saving this little girl this time was just a coincidence. The three of us don't want to take credit for it. It's just a small effort.
To be honest, the three of us came here to look for the lost glacier ruins. I wonder if the mermaids know any clues about the glacier ruins."
"I don't know. You can leave now."
The second elder opposite the first elder, also a top-level warrior with black scale armor on the lower body, spoke coldly.
But this time, even the mermaid queen did not say anything to stop it, and she avoided the embarrassment by caressing Lolita beside her.
Xu Yang and the other two could clearly see the attitudes of these people. Obviously, the matter regarding the glacial ruins was also a taboo for the mermaid clan and it was not so easy to be told.
"In that case, the three of us will take our leave."
Without any hesitation, Xu Yang turned around, looked at Shi Lingyun and Lingyao and was about to leave. However, he did not expect that the mermaid elders seemed to be getting more aggressive.
"Wait a minute!
You have entered the territory of my mermaid clan, but have not achieved your goal. If you leave this time and leak the location of my mermaid clan to the Jiao clan, wouldn't that be like letting a tiger go back to the mountain?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Lingyao beside him became angry without waiting for Xu Yang to express his opinion.
"Don't you think that we are easy to bully because there are only three of us?
Looking at the entire continent, my boss said he wanted to leave, and no one could stop him. "
Lingyao was about to explode when suddenly, a loud bang erupted in the sky above the entire mermaid plane!
Although the entire space was not affected too much, it was obvious that this force was released from the teleportation barrier. Xu Yang instinctively guessed that it was probably the previous Jiao people who had locked onto the positions of the three of them.
But the question is, how did they do it?
“Report!
! Report to the Queen, all elders, the mermaid army is releasing a powerful attack force at the entrance of the transmission channel, trying to destroy our array defense, and our position has been discovered. "
"What!"
“Asshole!
These three people are probably the traitors of the mermaid tribe. Kill them!"
The situation suddenly got out of control, especially the elders, who all had hysterical faces and did not give Xu Yang and the other two a chance to explain anything.
In fact, Xu Yang knew very well that it was useless to explain anything now. From his point of view, the most urgent task was to repel those guys first.
"Hey, you guys are not standing here making such noises.
If the three of us want to do something to you, we will just kill you. What can you do?
These dragons must have done something to us to find us here, but it was not our three's doing. If you can still maintain your rationality, we don't mind fighting against the invaders together with you."
Shi Lingyun's speech, which was quite impressive, really shocked all the fish people present.
"This little girl has such a strong mental power..." "These three people are so strong. It should be difficult for the Jiao clan to control these three top human warriors. Their words may not be untrustworthy..." Sure enough, the other mermaid elders who still retained their rationality also spoke one after another, expressing their respect for what Shi Lingyun had just said.
"Mother, uncles and aunts, the three of them are not bad people, and they don't know the mermaids. If I hadn't taken the initiative to board their boat and received their protection, these three people wouldn't even know that there are Jiao people in the sea!"
Lolita seemed to have thought of something suddenly. The little girl touched her forehead directly, and the bright colorful soul light suddenly spread out. The memory of the time when the Jiao clan surrounded the ship of Xu Yang and the other two was shared by Lolita.
“So that’s how it is…” As expected, after this part of the memory was shared, the anger of the elders subsided a lot, and the expression of the mermaid queen also became a little calmer.
“Everyone, please be patient. Since I invited the three of you in, I trust their character. Even if we cannot establish a deeper friendship, please do not regard them as opponents. Our current enemies are only the mermaids and other sea creatures.
Pass on my order, all mermaid warriors above the level of Green Scale must quickly assemble and prepare to go out to sea to meet the enemy!"
"Yes, sir!"
Soon, the mermaid queen outlined a teleportation light array in the hall. This array was a hidden teleportation barrier hidden deeper within the mermaid clan. It was not the same teleportation entrance outside that was surrounded by the sea clans.
The reason for choosing to intervene in the battlefield through this channel is to avoid being severely damaged by the well-prepared arrangements of those guys outside.
Choosing another exit can just avoid the battlefield traps set by the opponent.
"Thank you for not disrespecting me and for being willing to fight alongside my mermaid clan. As the queen of the mermaid clan, I guarantee you. If we can come back alive after this battle, I will answer all your questions."
Xu Yang couldn't help but smile when he heard that. He thought that this mermaid queen was really smart. She made a promise to him at this critical moment when the enemy was at hand. She just wanted to use the strength of these three people to win people's hearts.
However, this deal is still very cost-effective for Xu Yang. As long as he can achieve the ultimate goal, what does it matter if he sells a little labor?
Now, for Xu Yang, nothing is more important than seeing Xiaohua again.
Boom!
