When the fish-man guards saw the newcomers, expressions of awe and obedience immediately appeared on their faces. They stepped forward quickly and shouted in unison.
"Your Majesty, Senior Lu."
At this moment, the mermaid grandmother came rushing from the top of the mountain.
In the blink of an eye, it landed steadily in front of everyone.
The mermaid grandma looked at Lu Jingzhi with surprise in her eyes and couldn't help but ask.
"Jingzhi, your strength has increased so rapidly?!"
“This is simply unbelievable to me!”
Lu Jingzhi smiled slightly and replied modestly, "Grandma, you are too kind. I just had a lucky breakthrough."
The mermaid grandmother shook her head slightly and sighed, "This is not just luck. It must also be due to your luck and talent."
After a brief pause, she turned around, held Gu Keke's hands tightly, and said expectantly, "Keke, you are now very capable and popular."
"Why not just stay here?"
"This way, you can have enough food and clothing, and you can also lead your people to a better life and greater prosperity."
Faced with the mermaid grandma's sudden proposal, Gu Keke couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
She frowned slightly, secretly struggling with how to make a decision.
After a moment, she raised her head and cast her gaze at Lu Jingzhi who was standing beside her.
Lu Jingzhi felt Gu Keke's inquiring gaze, nodded, showing that he respected her decision, and spoke softly.
"Keke, it's up to you to make the choice on this matter."
"Whatever your final decision is, I will support you."
After hearing Lu Jingzhi's words, Gu Keke immediately had the answer in her mind.
She took a deep breath and said firmly to the mermaid grandmother, "Grandma, thank you very much for your trust and kindness."
"But after considering it, I still hope to follow them and leave Fishman Island."
When the mermaid grandmother heard this, a look of obvious disappointment appeared on her face.
However, she did not force him to stay, but sighed softly and spoke slowly.
"Well, since this is your decision, grandma can only respect your choice."
"But, child, if you encounter any difficulties or unpleasant things outside, remember to come back and see us relatives."
Gu Keke quickly nodded and responded, "Don't worry, grandma, I will."
"And I've already made plans for this, after I resurrect my sister-in-law."
"I will come back to Fishman Island to visit everyone again."
"Keke, it's very dangerous there, you'd better not go there."
Hearing this, Gu Keke looked at Lu Jingzhi and said, "Believe me, I am now strong enough."
"I can help you successfully resurrect your sister-in-law."
After hearing Gu Keke's words, Lu Jingzhi couldn't help but feel a warm feeling in his heart.
But he still looked worried and replied softly, "But, that place is too dangerous. If you're not careful, you'll get into trouble..."
Faced with Lu Jingzhi's worries, she shook her head without hesitation.
"I'm not afraid at all. As long as I can help you, I'm not afraid of anything."
The mermaid grandma beside her looked at her with such determination.
He also thought of how Lu Jingzhi had once helped Fishman Island and successfully resisted those ferocious and brutal sea monsters.
So I didn't say anything more.
"In that case, all right then."
"But before that, you need to go with me to the underwater palace."
Then, after a brief pause, she added, "Because there, there is something important waiting for you to inherit."
Upon hearing this, Gu Keke nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay, Grandma Mermaid, please lead the way."
At this moment, a sound suddenly came from the sky.
Everyone looked up and saw that it was Mu Jin, Lu Cheng and others rushing over from the sky above Fishman Island.
When Lu Jingzhi saw them, a delighted smile immediately appeared on his face, and he shouted loudly: "Dad, Mom, and everyone else!"
Lu Cheng was the first to speak: "Son, Ghost Festival is in two days."
"We have to go back quickly."
When Lu Jingzhi heard this, his eyes widened in surprise, "Ah? There are only two days left?"
"I've been at the bottom of the sea for so long without realizing it..."
Seeing this, Luo Xue, who was standing nearby, put her hands on her hips and said angrily, "That's right! We've been worried sick these past few days."
"Okay, stop dawdling and pack your bags quickly to head to the ancient wilderness."
Seeing how anxious they were, Grandma Yuren also understood that Yan An needed to enter the ancestor worship realm.
The Evil Soul Clan wants to force their way in at this time.
Of course, there is no delay.
"Coco, let's go to the palace now."
"good."
Mermaid Underwater Palace——
Everyone walked into the palace, which was spacious and magnificent, with the floor covered with soft seaweed carpets.
The walls are covered with exquisite murals woven with seaweed, depicting the historical stories of the mermaid clan.
The dome of the palace is inlaid with transparent crystal stones, through which you can clearly see the swimming fish and swaying seaweed outside.
In the center of the palace stands a magnificent statue of the Mermaid Queen.
This statue is carved from a single piece of deep sea blue jade, and the Mermaid Queen's face is beautiful and majestic.
Under the leadership of the mermaid grandma.
Gu Keke walked towards the statue of the Mermaid Queen in the center of the palace.
