Chapter 121 Ye Zheng’s Illegitimate Son
Tong Xu groaned, the tune stuck in his throat, and he almost fell off the shell.
He suddenly swam away, his face flushed and his ear fins trembling. "Bai Zhaoyan, don't you know you can't touch a mermaid's tail?"
Bai Zhaoyan's hands were empty and she shook her head honestly. She only knew that one should not touch a tiger's butt.
Hmm, thinking of this, her eyes lit up, and she would go back and ask Lang Ye to transform into a beast so that she could touch him.
When Tong Xu saw her shaking her head, his breath got stuck in his throat, unable to go up or down.
He threw the conch into her hand, turned around and swam away, "I don't want to play with you anymore."

Bai Zhaoyan silently calculated the time in his mind every day, until the ninth day, when he finally received the good news.
The female mermaid is already pregnant. The gestation period of a mermaid is only about twenty days. It won't be long before the mermaid family welcomes new cubs.
As soon as Tong Youyi heard the news, he hurriedly asked Xiyue to bring Bai Zhaoyan to him.
This time his attitude was much calmer, not as condescending as before. The female mermaid was also there, and she thanked her happily.
Tong You said he still needed some fertility pills.
Bai Zhaoyan reached out, "What I want."
Tong You looked at Tong Xu and nodded. Tong Xu stroked the necklace, feeling a little reluctant to part with it.
But in the past few days, his father and mother have taken turns to give the bead, and he knows that the bead must be given, and he cannot let his father break his promise.
Tong Xu took off the necklace, keeping all the pearls for herself, walked up to Bai Zhaoyan, held her wrist, and placed the purple pearl in her palm, "Here you go."
As soon as Bai Zhaoyan got the Zichen Pearl, he put it into his mouth.
All the fish present were shocked. Tong Xu quickly pinched her jaw and said, "Bai Zhaoyan, you can't eat this!"
Bai Zhaoyan pushed his hand away and swallowed the Purple Chen Pearl with a gulp.
Tong Xu was stunned.
They are foreigners and their food is very unique. They will get constipated.
Bai Zhaoyan clicked frantically on the “+” sign behind the Fertility Pill in the mall, and clicked until 50 to buy it.
Tong Xu watched helplessly as she took out a box of medicine out of thin air and stuffed it into his hand.
"Take it. The money and goods are settled. Thank you for your hospitality. Goodbye."
She waved her hand gracefully and turned to leave. Tong Xu looked at her back and then turned to look at his father.
Tong You hurriedly raised his hand, "Chief Bai, wait a minute."
"What's wrong? Is there something else?" Bai Zhaoyan stopped and turned around. Suddenly, he felt his blood boiling and started coughing wildly.
"Cough, cough, cough, cough..." She put her fist to her lips and coughed out a mouthful of black blood into her palm, and gradually light appeared in front of her eyes.
The sudden change made all the fish freeze on the spot. Xiyue swam to her and asked, "Are you okay?"
If the Qingyan tribe knew that their leader died at the hands of the Mermaid tribe, they might poison the sea every day. That would be disastrous.
Bai Zhaoyan looked up and saw his appearance clearly for the first time.
The sharpness in her eyes was so intense that Xiyue felt a chill on his back and took two steps back. "Can you see it?"
Hearing this, Tong Xu also came to his side, and they both looked at her with the same gaze.
The black blood melted into the sea water and dissipated. Bai Zhaoyan looked around and took in the surrounding environment.
Seeing her eyes become bright, they all understood that she could see.
Tong Xu was secretly shocked. She had never thought that the purple pearl could actually save her. No wonder she was willing to fight to get the purple pearl.
Only now did he truly believe it and fully understand it.
Bai Zhaoyan nodded slightly towards Tong You, "I'm anxious to go back. Is there anything else the Mermaid King needs?"
"Chief Bai, the Purple Pearl is a sacred object of our tribe, passed down from generation to generation. Now I give it to you, and I have no regrets. But I wonder if you can form a bond with my son?"
"The two tribes unite through marriage, and we will be forever united."
Upon hearing this, Bai Zhaoyan turned to look at Tong Xu. Tong Xu was standing next to Xiyue, staring at him without blinking.
He was handsome and very delicate, with fair and glowing skin, pure and innocent eyes, and a sparkling ice-blue fish tail.
Bai Zhaoyan shook her head and smiled politely, "I'm very sorry, I've already entered into a pact with a beastly husband. My husband at home won't allow me to remarry, I'm a husband-disciplined person."
"So I'm sorry that Tong Xu and I can't form a bond. He's your child, the future Mermaid King, and he's surrounded by admirers like a river of crucian carp. There's really no need to condescend to marry him."
"If you are truly interested in a marriage, our tribe still has many unmarried orcs. We are waiting for you to bring your people to the Qingyan Tribe at any time. I will treat you well and show you the scenery on land."
Even if the two tribes really want to marry, the Qingyan tribe will not be able to live in the seabed for a long time, and the mermaid tribe can only marry into the Qingyan tribe.
Tong You was silent, not knowing what he was thinking.
Bai Zhaoyan didn't force him and waved to them, "I'm leaving now. See you again if we're lucky."
She had regained her sight and could go back without a guide, and she felt more relaxed on the way upstream.
Mo Wang and Lang Ye had already made a plan. If she hadn't come ashore by tomorrow, they would go into the water to look for her.
Lang Ye was weaving a basket with rattan and put a black snake as thick as a finger into it.
This is an egg that floated over from the sea two days ago. After it hatched, it turned out to be a snake.
Lang Ye fed him a few meals of meat, and the little black snake started to cling to him and refused to leave.
He guessed that it must be a beast from the other side of the South China Sea. The rising tide flooded the cave, which caused the snake eggs to be separated from their family.
Lang Ye tried to communicate with the black snake and asked him to go back to his family, but the little black snake seemed not to understand and just stuck to him.
Stick to him and you will get meat.
The two beasts thought about it and decided to take him back to keep Ye Zheng company so that he wouldn't be so lonely.
Zhaoyan is afraid of snakes, so she has to put the little snake away.
Mo Wang fried half a pot of sea salt, cut a bamboo tube to put the salt grains into it, and climbed onto a reef not far from the shore to act as a wife-watching rock when Bai Zhaoyan came back.
She had her back to Mo Wang at first, but after looking at him for a few seconds, she turned around and saw Mo Wang staring at her on the reef. She quickly waved at him with a smile on her face.
Mo Wang was delighted and went into the water to swim towards her. Bai Zhaoyan took the outstretched hand, put her arm around his neck, and let him bring her ashore.
Lang Ye put down the basket and came forward, "Zhao Zhao, you're back."
Bai Zhaoyan nodded and blinked, "I'm fine now. I can see now. You can rest assured now."
Lang Ye felt relieved and quickly took her hand and took her to change clothes.
Bai Zhaoyan changed into dry clothes in the tent and came out. He looked at the head sticking out from the wicker basket. His scalp suddenly felt numb and he retracted his hand that was about to lift the tent, leaving only his eyes exposed.
"Mo Wang, Mo Wang, come quickly, there's a snake here!"
Hearing her anxious cry, Mo Wang hurried over. Lang Ye pressed the black snake back and closed the lid.
"Don't be afraid, it's not poisonous and won't bite."
Mo Wang carried the person out of the tent and patted her back gently.
Bai Zhaoyan grabbed his arm and looked up at him, "Where did you come from?"
Didn’t they say that all the snakes except Ye Zheng died?
Mo Wang was about to tell the truth when Lang Ye came up with a playful smile, "This is Ye Zheng's illegitimate child. Zhao Zhao, kick him out."
