Just because others can't do it doesn't mean I can't do it
She curled the corners of her lips, and her red veil was blown up by the sea breeze.
Fu Ying caught up with the two of them, following the sound of gentle waves. Xingyao's expression changed: "You..."
Jingxiang's eyes widened as well. Her originally listless ear fins suddenly stood up, even twitching slightly with excitement. She looked at Fu Ying in disbelief, her voice trembling, "You... you're still alive!"
Fu Ying raised the corners of his lips slightly, a faint halo flickered in his eyes, and he said in a cold voice: "I don't take them seriously, you don't have to worry too much."
When Jingxiang heard this, her scales exploded: "Who's worried about you!"
Fu Ying didn't pay any attention to her arrogance. Suddenly, she tilted her head, her long hair brushing across her shoulders, and her gaze went straight to Xing Yao: "What about you? Have you made up your mind?"
Xingyao's knuckles suddenly tightened, squeezing Jingxiang's hand so hard that it hurt.
There was a deep wrinkle between his eyebrows, his jawline was extremely sharp, and his brows were full of complexity.
He originally thought that Fu Ying would not be able to leave the dangerous forest alive, and he didn't even need to think of an excuse to refuse. But she came back alive, even intact, with only a trace of undried blood on her cheek. This realization made him breathless. Does this mean that she really has that ability?
The sea breeze brought with it a salty and fishy smell, which made his Adam's apple roll, but he still didn't know whether he should agree or not.
Jingxiang's ear fins were trembling with anxiety. Seeing that Xingyao remained silent, he became anxious and couldn't help but take a step forward.
"Fu Ying, after all, you are well-known and a witch favored by the Beast God, endowed with powerful abilities." Jingxiang's voice tightened: "Xingyao didn't dare to agree because he was afraid that you would hurt his people and hurt Danyue!"
Fu Ying blinked slightly, concealed his expression, looked at the two of them, and the beast spirit flower on his forehead flickered.
Her voice was filled with spiritual power. "I swear in the name of the Beast God, if I harm the mermaids in the slightest, if I force Danyue to do something against her will, my witch bones and blood will dry up, and I will lose my witch powers forever."
The moment the oath was made, a heavy thunder exploded in the sky.
Jingxiang was so frightened that he looked up at the sky where silver lightning flashed, his eyes full of fear.
Xingyao's pupils shrank slightly, and complex emotions surged in his deep-sea eyes.
He stared at the beast spirit flower on Fu Ying's forehead and suddenly found that he could not understand the female in front of him.
"Since I was able to swear the Beast God Oath for Danyue..." Xingyao's throat tightened, and he suppressed the undercurrent in his voice: "In the first place... why did you do such a cruel and brutal, heinous thing?"
The sea breeze blew Fu Ying's hair into a mess, covering the obscure look in her eyes.
She lowered her eyes and said softly, "Many things are not my true feelings and cannot be explained."
"Don't worry, I only want to reshape the star pattern for Danyue, so that he can return to the deep sea and return to the tribe. I won't do anything else."
Jingxiang's taut ear fins slowly relaxed. He turned to look at Xingyao and pulled his hand.
Xingyao raised his eyes and looked at Fu Ying, his eyes flickering slightly.
She stood on the beach under the night sky, looking serious and sincere to the extreme.
"good!"
Xingyao finally nodded. Saving Danyue was the wish of the entire mermaid tribe.
For a witch to swear by the beast god is a sign of great sincerity.
He was willing to trust her for once for Tanyue's sake.
Xingyao slowly raised his arms, crossed them across his chest, and made the most solemn gesture. The sharp dark green scales on his arms emerged, drawing a cold light in the sea water.
He lowered his eyes slightly, his voice low and solemn: "As long as you can save Tanyue, let him return to the deep sea and see his people again, and let all the past grudges turn into bubbles, I am willing to consider you my friend."
As soon as he finished speaking, he lightly scratched the water with his fingertips, and a drop of blood seeped into the sea water, staining it with a faint red glow.
Jingxiang nodded repeatedly and said hurriedly: "And me!"
Fu Ying nodded, her gaze directed towards the deep, dark sea. The water beneath the night sky was as cold as ink, with undercurrents surging silently. It looked terrifying. She raised her fingertips slightly, a fluorescent light flickering, and said calmly, "Let's go."
Jingxiang blinked, her round pupils filled with confusion: "Leave? Where to?"
Fu Ying tilted her head slightly, her hair falling down, and she looked even more puzzled than Jingxiang: "Of course, we're going to the mermaid tribe."
Her tone was very calm, as if she was talking about something very ordinary.
Jingxiang's eyes suddenly widened, and she gasped. She pointed at the deep sea, then at Fuying: "You? Going into the sea? Are you kidding me? You're a land beastman! No gills, no fins, going into the sea??"
She gestured exaggeratedly, pinching her neck with both hands and making an expression of rolling her eyes and sticking out her tongue.
Jingxiang looked at Fuying suspiciously, with some worry in her eyes. Could it be that her head was hit by those orcs?
Xingyao also frowned slightly, looked at Fuying and said, "It's too late today. We still have to go back to the Qijing Tribe. I will bring you to see you tomorrow. You can stay on the shore for tonight."
As for her mention of going to the mermaid territory, he didn't even want to pay attention to it.
A fox orc, wanting to enter the deep sea? He was simply courting death.
Fu Ying looked at the two of them with a calm gaze, and said calmly, "Just because land-based orcs can't go to the sea doesn't mean I can't either. Danyue's matter is urgent, I must go to find her myself, so that I can show my sincerity."
Jingxiang: "..."
Xingyao: “…”
After a while, Xingyao frowned and asked, "Are you serious?"
Fu Ying said nothing and walked straight towards the sea. The icy sea water covered her collarbone inch by inch and soon swallowed her completely. Her long hair like a waterfall spread out in the sea, intertwining with the rippling waves.
Jingxiang's pupils suddenly contracted and he took a breath of cold air.
Worried about Fu Ying, she jumped into the deep sea without hesitation. The moment her slender body entered the water, it shone like a pearl, fine scales emerged from her skin, and her ear fins swayed.
However, she did not transform into a beast, but still maintained her human form.
Females in the ocean are the same as females on land. After reaching adulthood, they will no longer be able to freely transform between animal and human forms.
However, marine females retain some animal features in their humanoid bodies, enough to allow them to coexist with the ocean while in human form.
Xingyao followed closely behind and jumped into the sea.
The moment the body was completely submerged in the water, a dark green fish tail suddenly emerged from below the waist and abdomen!
He swung his tail violently, and his scales shone coldly in the sea water. His huge tail fin slapped the sea surface, stirring up a silver-white wave. With this force, he swam quickly towards the whale!
After catching up to her, his lean and strong arms wrapped around her slender waist.
Jingxiang didn't react at all, her eyes fixed in one direction.
Xingyao was slightly startled, paused, and looked in the direction she was looking.
In the deep sea water, the moonlight was crushed, and the refracted halo turned into a silver glow in the sea.
In this hazy glow, Fu Ying's figure was covered with ripples of red.
Her fair, slender legs were shining with a lustrous luster, and were gradually wrapped in a layer of flowing crimson mist. In a moment, fine crimson scales appeared on her fair skin, flowing and shining in the waves!
As the light mist floated, scarlet scale gauze as thin as a cicada's wing stretched out from both sides.
Fu Ying spun gently, and a whole fish tail took shape from under her slender waist. It was a beautiful crimson color. When it swayed, it swayed lightly, and her posture was incredibly agile, even three points more elegant than a real mermaid!
