You've always considered yourself a good person, selfless and altruistic.
But the dark-hearted Qin Zhenhai refused to believe that you negotiated the terms by continuously selling kidneys.
[As soon as you finished explaining to him telepathically, he turned around and asked directly, "My brother here said he... is that true?"]
[Alas: "It's fake. He can't possibly deal with me, nor with my descendants."]
You feel deeply humiliated.
Qin Zhenhai: "Uh, I was asking about the part where he negotiated for the treaty."
"Wasn't that matter settled last year?" Wu Hu Hu asked doubtfully. "Our tribe is almost ready, just waiting for your handover. He... didn't tell you?"
"They were so happy they forgot about home" is an example of this.
Qin Zhenhai turned to look at you, gritting his teeth.
"I was just giving them time to gather the water spirits, wasn't I?" you chuckled dryly. "You've arrived just in time; now we can take them back and properly develop the Vast Ocean Waves."
Qin Zhenhai was seething with anger. He turned and left, his gaze making you feel like you'd be punished later.
"How terrifying! I'm not going back to the Vast Ocean for now; it's safer here."
Qin Zhenhai led hundreds of thousands of water spirits willing to explore new waterways. This number may seem small, but the spirit race is inherently scarce, and this time, all those going out are at least at the second realm, including dozens at the third realm and tens of thousands at the Celestial level!
Shui Ling really contributed a significant amount of her clan's strength.
[You think this is also a way of repaying Wuhuhu? The more space the water spirit occupies, the stronger its reproduction becomes, and the more fortune it receives as the King of Water.]
[Perhaps after several hundred years, Wuhuhu can reach the realm of "Earthly Supreme," with the Human Supreme living for about four thousand years, the Earthly Supreme for four thousand five hundred, the Heavenly Supreme for five thousand, and the Ultimate Supreme for six thousand.]
In this way, it can become stronger and live longer.
But there are many things you can't do right now.
[—Qin Zhenhai's side.]
He used his supreme true essence to create a giant bowl shape, within which hundreds of thousands of water spirits gathered to form a lake, swimming and playing joyfully.
[Qin Zhizun was truly furious. Originally, his anger was directed at Shui Ling, but now it was all directed at that greedy, silver-obsessed old thief, Shouyun!]
[They were perfectly fine until this morning. Han Hai Ning Bo was promoting the idea that the Water Spirits are also human friends, and that we should treat them kindly and not discriminate against them...]
Qin Zhenhai wasn't in too much of a hurry. This was a matter between a race and a major region; how could it be easily resolved? So he decided to give you two or three years, and if it didn't work out, he'd replace you.
The next two or three years are the perfect time to change people's stereotypical image of a delicate, beautiful woman. The potential is vast, so we can't rush things, or it could backfire.
[Then he asked about you and learned that you had set off for Wanshui Territory last year, but to this day, there had been no news of you. His heart skipped a beat!]
The closer the relationship, the more likely one is to interpret unclear situations as the worst possible outcome.
Qin Zhenhai retrieved the Golden Spirit computer and contacted you to inquire about the situation.
But the only one who responded to him was the ore spirit, the living golden spirit beside you.
"Ah, you should ask him... I've been sitting here like this for almost a year, it's so miserable (actually, I'm just bored)."
Qin Zhenhai cried out in alarm, "What will happen then?!"
"According to the Defender, he is currently imprisoned by an evil water spirit and forced into a crucial battle, his life force is being drained away every day... He's currently fighting 1v49, and it's uncertain whether he'll return alive."
"Has this Golden Spirit been dyed into the shape of the Tenth Prince?"
When Qin Zhenhai saw the message, "It's not certain whether he'll come back alive," he truly panicked.
[Then, almost without any pause or hesitation, he rushed out of the Domain Lord's Mansion and headed straight for the Myriad Waters, maximizing his Supreme cultivation to speed up his journey!]
The truth, however, was... he was grinding his teeth so hard they were practically spitting fire!
Hearing the laughter of the water spirits in the True Essence Bowl, the thought of having to praise and extol you at the ceremony after returning to the Vast Ocean made his heart even more heavy with resentment!
In 2983, you leisurely left Wanshui Territory.
"I can't take this anymore. I can't keep indulging in fun and games. I've already wasted three years."
In 1984, as the "Ambassador for Peace Talks between the Vast Ocean Wave Human Race and the Water Spirit Race," you received a large amount of martial arts talent... You could sense that you had gained some favor with the Water Spirits.
[In 2987, you are traveling in the "Honglan Domain," strolling through a forest.]
However, the golden spirit ore he carried hesitated and jingled.
"The Defender... has some news."
"What's wrong?" you ask, puzzled.
"...Something has happened to one of your friends."
At first, you didn't realize what was happening: "What happened? Who?"
"...Fallen into the Demon Realm."
"Bei Chenguang?" You breathed a sigh of relief, your heart finally at ease. According to the previous plot, it seemed he was indeed lurking in the Demon Realm during this period.
That's alright then.
"Hmm." Yun Shou nodded. The chosen one infiltrated the enemy's headquarters, was then discovered, and was caught in a battle royale.
If it were the previous generations of Lao Yun, it would probably have been a situation with nine deaths and one life.
Even now, the tenth prince is only invincible below the fourth realm. If he were to be pursued by a pseudo-king of the demon race, he would still have to rely on his strength.
But the so-called near-death experiences and the pursuit by the false king... are nothing to Bei Chenguang, who is currently at the peak of the Celestial Realm to the level of a hegemon.
Perhaps this dangerous breakthrough will be the key?
"It's Xu Ling'er."
【"???"】
Yun Shou: "???"
"Xu...Ling'er?" You were stunned. "Could it be that she also accepted a related mission, hoping to stimulate herself to break through and become a hegemon?"
You take a deep breath and gaze into the distance, towards the direction of the Demon Realm.
Although Xu Ling'er possesses a Sacred Body, she only has the cultivation level of a Celestial Being, at most breaking through to the Overlord realm. How could she possibly attract the pursuit of an excessively powerful demon race?
"These demons, who don't even possess a sacred body, are merely at the twelfth level of cultivation without the bloodline bestowed by a superior..." You've already decided to head to the Demon Realm.
But Jin Ling's next sentence made you freeze.
"She was kidnapped by the false king of the demon race."
"It wasn't just one false king, but three. They appeared abruptly, made their move right there in a resource area of the human-demon war zone, and took her away without any chance of resistance."
[Three supreme beings have made a move?]
Your heart skipped a beat!
Yun Shou also fell silent: "..."
How similar this situation is!
The second faction of the demon race, the one that wants to break free from its destiny, has made its move again!
This time, however, there wasn't a single All-Powerful Fighting Body available for them to choose from.
They have their eyes on Xu Ling'er, who has nine times the mental strength!
