The temperature of the spiritual pool gradually rose, and the water rippled continuously.
Ah Li had no idea where Pei Jingcang had learned the secrets of the merfolk, nor where he had learned his methods.
All she knew was that she wasn't human, and Pei Jingcang was even less human.
Every time the fish tail twitched, he would press down on it with one hand and tell Ahri that he had wanted to do this when he was inside the giant seashell.
Many pearls rolled down between Ah Li and Pei Jingcang and landed in the spirit pool.
Pei Jingcang was in a good mood; he was very happy to be back this time.
Because no one can hurt him, and no one can beat, scold, or humiliate him at will just because he is a demon.
Most importantly, he met Ahri, the person he cherished most.
"Ah Li, be my Demon Queen, okay?"
Pei Jingcang leaned close to Ah Li's ear and spoke to her over and over again.
In the Demon Palace, he is the Demon Lord, and Ahri is his Demon Queen.
Ah Li helplessly draped her hands around Pei Jingcang's neck, her fishtail being tightly gripped by him.
A pink pearl rolled away from Pei Jingcang's eyes and fell into the pool.
Those were tears from a mermaid who was truly moved.
Pei Jingcang felt even more affection for Ah Li; he was truly overjoyed!
After an unknown amount of time, Ahri lazily opened her eyes. She could sense a familiar presence around her; she was now in the South China Sea.
Pei Jingcang held Ah Li and leaned against the Spirit Pool. He said that as long as he did not suppress his magic power, he could reach the depths of the South China Sea.
This time, he brought Ahri back with him.
Pei Jingcang retrieved the pink pearl that Ahri had dropped, and he also packed up and brought back all the other pearls.
The spirit pool inside the Demon Palace couldn't withstand their abuse, and within a few days it lost its spiritual power, even Ah Li's fish tail lost its luster.
Pei Jingcang then took Ah Li back to the South China Sea. Of course, he didn't alert the other merfolk; he sneaked in.
"Ah Li, isn't your husband amazing? I can come and go freely even in the depths of the South China Sea."
Ahri flicked her fishtail, splashing up countless pools of water, and said, "If you weren't already with me, you wouldn't be able to get in here."
"I am the Demon Lord, there is no place in this world I cannot reach."
Pei Jingcang held Ah Li and spoke with great arrogance.
Ahri just smiled and didn't say anything.
Pei Jingcang then brought over the small fish and shrimp he had prepared earlier, saying, "Are you hungry? I prepared these for you."
Pei Jingcang kept this in mind. He knew that Ah Li would always go outside to catch some small fish and shrimp to eat when she was hungry.
Just as Ah Li was about to reach out to take it, Pei Jingcang raised his hand to prevent Ah Li from getting it, and said, "I'll feed you."
Ahri was about to flick her tail again when Pei Jingcang held it down. "Wait a minute before you move. Eat your fill first."
Ah Li frowned. She wanted to get out of the spirit pool. She admitted that she didn't have this person's physical strength.
However, Pei Jingcang did not agree; instead, he kept Ah Li behind.
He enjoys the feeling of being one with someone in the water; it's an addictive feeling.
The merfolk in the South China Sea, who were still worried about their chieftain, suddenly discovered that the sky above the South China Sea was a fiery red, just like a sunset.
Among the merfolk, a knowledgeable old merfolk said, "Don't bother looking anymore, the clan leader has returned. She's over at the Spirit Pool, and she's brought back the person she likes too."
Upon hearing this, Nianyin thought of Pei Jingcang.
The Demon Lord who built a demon palace atop the snow-capped mountain and sent people every day to inquire about the whereabouts of the Merfolk chieftain.
So, are he and his sister together?
It wasn't until Ah Li gave birth to a mermaid girl and a smaller version of Pei Jingcang that Pei Jingcang allowed Ah Li to reappear before the mermaid clan.
Pei Jingcang held the two babies in his arms and followed Ah Li happily.
He enjoys the amazement others see in him, and that makes him happy.
At that moment, Nianyin swam over with something hidden in her hand. She looked at Ah Li in confusion, "You are the chieftain of the Merfolk tribe, how can you be with a demon!"
Pei Jingcang looked at Nianyin; this person was filled with evil thoughts.
Ah Li then looked at Nian Yin's hand, "What's that in your hand?"
Nianyin knew that Ah Li had discovered her. She held the object in her hand high and said, "The people of the spirit world say that as long as we use this, we can destroy this demon!"
Pei Jingcang was about to laugh when he realized that there was nothing in this world that could truly destroy him.
But when Nianyin threw the object in her hand at Pei Jingcang, Pei Jingcang realized that the object in Nianyin's hand was the Samsara Mirror!
It's a reincarnation mirror that's already been activated!
Did the person in the spirit world, who is said to be able to save the world, find this thing and even open it?
Damn it!
The Mirror of Reincarnation slowly grew larger, and Pei Jingcang was almost uncontrollably pulled back in. He quickly handed the two children to Ah Li, then kissed Ah Li's forehead and said, "Wait for me."
The Mirror of Reincarnation emitted a bright light, and Pei Jingcang vanished.
Ahri, holding her two children, looked at Nianyin and said calmly, "You have released the evil in your heart."
Nianyin retorted, "I didn't! Demons are inherently evil; you've been bewitched by them!"
Ahri didn't speak; all she wanted now was to lead the merfolk away from here.
Because her two children are Pei Jingcang's children, and in those people's eyes, they are also demons.
Since ancient times, the merfolk have been kind to humans and often brought silk gauze to the shore to exchange for goods with people in the human world.
However, for some greedy people, mermaids are a treasure trove.
They've always lacked a legitimate reason for attacking, and now they're probably just hoping to get their hands on the merfolk.
