Chapter 216: Elixir of Birth
Wen You was horrified when hearing this. This mermaid was extremely paranoid about Canglan's father and she even used such a vicious trick on her own son.
She followed Ning Shu, who had just finished dressing up, all the way to the main hall where the ceremony was held. Cang Lan, who had also changed into a gorgeous dark blue dress, was also escorted up by the guards.
His ear fins were covered with two conch shells, his brows were furrowed, his eyes were dull, his facial features were twisted in pain, and he almost relied on the guards to move forward.
Seeing this, Ning Shu couldn't bear it. "Mother, can you please take down the conch? He didn't marry me like this out of his heart."
The mermaid sat on a high seat, a trace of pity flashed across her majestic face, but her tone did not allow for argument, "Take him down? Then he will run away immediately, and it will be difficult to seduce him again."
"Today is the annual Bonding Festival. With the blessing of the Beast God, you should give me a big fat granddaughter."
Not being able to give birth to a daughter in this life has always been a regret in the mermaid's heart. Unfortunately, her lover has passed away, and she is unwilling to give birth to other male children.
Wen You was highly focused and kept an eye on Canglan's situation.
There were too many guards and guests watching the ceremony in the main hall, and the mermaid was also there. Wen You planned to wait a little longer until he reached the bedroom, when he would be more confident in dealing with Ning Shu alone.
However, after the pearl exchange process, Jiaomu called the guards, had Canglan brought in front of her, took out a black pill and stuffed it into his mouth.
Ning Shu: “Mother!”
Wen You: “Stop it!”
After Jiao Mu stuffed the pill into her mouth, she took out a handkerchief to wipe her fingers clean, and looked at Ning Shu first, "Why are you yelling? It's just a magical medicine to induce labor. You have to bear the hardship tonight, and you must get pregnant."
She can't always bewitch Canglan, the rebellious son. Today she took advantage of his unpreparedness, but she can't say for sure what she will do next time.
The mermaid narrowed her eyes and looked carefully at Wen You who rushed to the center of the hall. "Who are you? You dare to ask me to stop. I'm afraid you don't know what this sea is like."
Now that she was already exposed, Wen You was too lazy to play dumb with her. She flexed her wrists while climbing the stairs, looking straight into the mermaid's eyes.
"I don't care what your last name is. From now on, the surname of this sea area is Wen. Please introduce yourself. I am the wife of Linluo and Canglan, Wen You."
Perhaps because she was a female, the mermaid did not take action against her. Instead, she let her walk to the platform, with a hint of sarcasm on her well-maintained face.
"A female from the Lu tribe? Canglan must have brought you to the sea, and you dare to act so presumptuously in front of me, little girl. You are truly ignorant and fearless."
The females on land, apart from having a little mental power to look at, couldn't even touch her with a finger.
Today is a happy day. She doesn't plan to kill anyone, but to capture this little girl. Maybe she can use her to manipulate Canglan.
Wen You raised an apologetic smile at the corner of her lips, neither humble nor arrogant, "I think you have some misunderstandings. You dare to be presumptuous in front of me. You are ignorant and fearless."
"If you don't want to die, release Canglan immediately."
No matter what, the mermaid is their mother after all, and a female at that. Wen You doesn't want to take her life unless it is absolutely necessary.
Before he could finish his words, countless tiny shells attacked from behind him. The sharp edges flashed with cold light, enough to pierce any low-level creature into a sieve.
Ning Shu's eyes were fierce, and her blue-purple fish tail swung out pieces of water blades, "If you want to snatch the bride from me, you can't just talk, you're courting death!"
Wen You seemed unaware, instead he pulled a shell stool and sat down with his arms folded, "If you want to die, I'll let you do it first."
Seeing her fearless appearance, the mermaid felt a little scared, "Come here, catch this female who disturbed the ceremony!"
The fully armed shrimp soldiers and crab generals stepped forward quickly.
Wen You just hooked her fingers, and the hidden weapons behind her were washed away by the invisible water flow, forming a protective circle around her.
After the beautiful vortex turned a few times, each piece of it pierced into the guards' chest accurately, and the bodies were lying all over the ground.
Ning Shu's face was pale and she fell to the ground. The blue dress she was wearing had been dyed reddish brown, and it looked like a bunch of gorgeous flowers blooming.
The mermaid pinched her sleeve nervously and finally looked Wen You in the face. "Who on earth are you?!"
Apart from Canglan who possesses the mermaid pill, how could anyone else be able to control the ocean at will?
Wen You quickly stepped forward, grabbed the mermaid's neck and lifted her up from her seat, her tone cold and cold, "I've already said that I am the master of this ocean."
Since the mermaid pill is a token given by the Beast God to the mermaids, then as a half-Beast God, it wouldn't be too much for her to mobilize the ocean, right?
"Where's the antidote? Hand it over!"
She tightened her grip, and the mermaid's face turned red, veins bulged, but a strange smile appeared in her eyes, and she muttered something intermittently.
"The antidote is in #@%&..."
Wen You realized that something was wrong and covered her mouth immediately. Those intermittent voices floated into her mind, like devilish sounds piercing her ears.
The other female mermaids in the hall also started chanting. It was like thousands of steel needles piercing into Wen You's brain. The scene in front of her eyes was blurry, making her want to hold her head and scream madly.
The pain that penetrated deep into her soul made Wen You curl up on the coffee table, and cold sweat quickly soaked her clothes.
The mermaid was rubbing her neck and breathing heavily, with a fierce look of contempt in her eyes, "Come here, kill her and feed her to the fish——"
Wen You's palms were filled with powerful force of faith, which instantly exploded when several guards approached. The violent shock wave knocked everyone down, and they fell more than ten meters away!
"ah--!"
Cries of pain rang out one after another, and the singing disappeared in an instant. The mermaid who was closest to Wen You was bleeding from all seven orifices and collapsed on a chair, her life or death unknown.
Wen You shook his dizzy brain, climbed up with the help of the table, threw away the conch on Canglan's ear, picked him up and swam towards the Coral Palace.
This is the disadvantage of range attack. Even Canglan, who has a strong physique, was knocked unconscious by Wen You.
His condition was obviously very bad. His body was burning hot, his jade-white cheeks were red all the way to his neck, tears were rolling from the corners of his eyes, and his wet and red eyes were full of confusion.
Lin Luo was pacing back and forth in the room. When he heard the door open, he hurried forward and helped Canglan to the bed.
"Look quickly, what happened to him? Just now the mermaid fed him something, saying it was a magical medicine to induce labor."
Wen You wiped the sweat from her forehead. She had just tried to calm him down with her mental power, but it was of no use.
It shouldn't be the aftereffect of singing, because she had also been attacked and she recovered in such a short while.
Lin Luo was originally checking the situation, but upon hearing this his ears turned red and he stammered, unable to speak.
"It will only be relieved if he has fish. Let's find him a female as soon as possible..."
Wen You: “?”
It's just that he was drugged and needed to relieve his sexual desire. She already kissed him, so it's not impossible to do something more extreme...
Lin Luo saw what she was thinking and shook his head repeatedly, "No, it's different. This medicine is very effective. The male who takes the medicine can continue to do it until the female becomes pregnant."
He couldn't bear to see his wife suffer, and even more so to see her get pregnant and give birth to a baby, so the best solution was to find a female who was willing to marry Canglan.
(She can’t give birth to cubs. She still can’t give birth even after writing the end and the extra chapters. Why do I write this paragraph? The author is a sideline writer, just for fun)
