As Lin Yongqian and Lin Ruoxi successfully entered the Dao and began their cultivation through the cleansing potion, Lin Huaiyuan was rejuvenated, and Lin Ruoxi began to frequently visit the Hengwang Mansion under the pretext of seeking guidance from Qin Mo on cultivation.
After the banquet, Lin Ruoxi cornered Xi Ya, "Hey! Were you really adopted?"
"No, I just can't remember the way home..."
Do you know the rules?
Shia was immediately enraged: "Are all the women of your Great Xia crazy? They want to fight the moment they meet?"
Lin Ruoxi was also furious: "Who among you is the madman?"
"That maid likes to fight, and you like to fight too? Aren't you crazy?"
Lin Ruoxi was stunned for a moment before she realized that Shia was Kaihime. Her anger subsided considerably, though she was still annoyed with Kaihime.
Looking at Shia glaring at her, Lin Ruoxi suddenly said, "I also want to fight her, but I can't beat her."
"Oh! I can't beat him either..."
A beautiful woman and a little girl poured out their grievances to each other, and suddenly felt a sense of shared hatred for a common enemy.
Allen visited Qin Mo's Twin Towers at the most opportune moment and met the mysterious Shia in the most secluded room.
"Allen, do you think she's a sea creature?" Qin Mo's eyes were full of hope. Although his body no longer needed the Fountain of Life, the mysterious sea creature still aroused his strong interest. More importantly, the sea creature was an unstable factor in his plan.
Qin Mo ultimately aims to conquer the world through the sea, making the legendary sea tribes an unavoidable topic. In these legends, the sea tribes are the rulers of the ocean, and even the elves, skilled in navigation, must show them respect. If Qin Mo were to infringe upon their territory without realizing it, his dream of building an unshakeable empire would face countless more obstacles.
Allen did not answer immediately, but instead sent out a nebula that seeped into Shia's body, before shining brightly and flying out again after a long time.
Shia's face was filled with terror. When the nebula entered her body, she lost her connection with it. When she first saw Allen, the handsome and dashing man made her hold her breath for a moment. Allen's figure and appearance were exactly like the standard image of a prince in a fairy tale.
But now, Shia only wants him to be as far away from her as possible; Allen's unfathomable cultivation and cold heart make her shudder.
"Her body is indeed human, but she possesses a peculiar power that is somewhat similar to, or... related to, the legendary sea creatures."
The great elf made a rare, ambiguous judgment. Even someone as powerful as him had never seen a true sea creature, so he could not discern Shia's true identity and could only conclude that Shia's body was indeed human.
Qin Mo was somewhat disappointed, yet also somewhat relieved. The sea race had disappeared for over a hundred years; had she been too attached and sentimental?
"Xia, do you really not remember where your hometown is?" Qin Mo asked for the last time.
“I really don’t remember. I was kicked out, and when I regained consciousness, I could no longer find my way home.”
"oh!...."
Qin Mo looked at Shia, who was hiding beside her out of fear, and thought for a long time before saying, "Shia, you... are free. You can do what you like now, but don't capsize other people's ships again. You should know that not every cultivator is good-tempered. You... are still too weak."
Shia's eyes welled up with tears again, and her hand gripping Qin Mo's sleeve trembled.
"I...have nowhere to go. I only managed to fight those pirate ships by eating the food offered by the merchants at the Sea God Temple. I've eaten a lot of your food now, and I...haven't helped you yet. I can't leave!"
I'm having some writer's block, so I'll upload the next chapter a little later. I'll revise it carefully.
