Later events proved that she was wrong.
After the merfolk's protective array was activated, those people immediately sent people to hunt down the merfolk who were not inside the array, and they also sent people to destroy the merfolk's protective array.
Countless arrows imbued with magic, trailing sparks, landed on the protective array from an unknown location.
It was clear that the protective array wouldn't last much longer.
Nianyin swam up to those people and shouted, "What are you doing! Pei Jingcang, that demon god, is gone! He's no longer with the Merfolk!"
However, she was caught in a fishing net, and no one explained it to her or treated her like a human being anymore.
At that time, not many merfolk were captured; they were mostly female merfolk who had married fishermen on the beach.
They were imprisoned in a dark and sunless place, where people would whip them every day, making them cry.
When Nianyin was imprisoned, she vaguely heard that the merfolk's protective array had been forcibly broken.
However, apart from them being captured, her sister and other merfolk, including the old merfolk, never appeared.
Nianyin wanted to ask someone, but she was severely beaten and scolded with a whip, so she never dared to ask again.
Later, Nianyin finally believed that what the old merman said was true.
These people are more terrifying than demons.
Some of the mermaids couldn't withstand the torture and died, and those people dragged them away.
No one knows where those merfolk were taken.
Sometimes, Nianyin would smell a strange odor, and people would walk past them carrying bottles of oil in jars.
Nianyin trembled with fear whenever she thought of the old merman mentioning the ever-burning lamp oil in the underground palace.
After that, Nianyin didn't know how much time had passed.
She grew increasingly frightened because she could no longer cry.
The number of captured merfolk gradually decreased, until only she remained.
Nianyin was holding on with all her might; she didn't want to die, and she wanted to go back to the South China Sea.
Later, when she was on the verge of death and was dragged into a cave with a large boiler, she still tried to struggle and escape.
She thought she would die there.
Fortunately, Pei Jingcang arrived with his men.
At that time, she wanted to pretend that she was Nianli, so that he would think she was the older sister.
But after he rescued her, he immediately recognized her – no, she wasn't his sister.
Pei Jingcang then asked her, "Where's Ah Li?"
Nianyin didn't know why at that time. She only knew that she answered, "My sister died, the entire mermaid clan was wiped out, and those two children died with my sister. It's all because of you! Because you are a demon god! You're the one who caused it! You're the one who wiped out the mermaid clan!"
Nianyin couldn't remember what Pei Jingcang looked like after she said those words, because she had fainted.
When she woke up again, she was among the demons.
Pei Jingcang went to the South China Sea. He no longer wanted to destroy the world; he only wanted to stay in the South China Sea.
The demon clan's left and right protectors, along with others, only guarded the demon clan since they were not led by a demon god. They would only come to the South China Sea to find Pei Jingcang when they had free time.
This also allowed people in both the human and spirit realms to recuperate and thrive.
At this moment, Nianyin's pupils flickered as she looked towards the thick fog, because red clouds had appeared above the fog.
"My sister is still alive..."
The sound of the recitation was so soft that no one could hear it.
In the thick fog, next to a large rock.
Ah Li was held tightly by Pei Jingcang, and her appearance underwater was enough to make anyone blush and their heart race at first glance.
Ah Li couldn't help but sigh, whether it was five hundred years ago or five hundred years later, Pei Jingcang was still the formidable one.
Ah Li couldn't take it anymore. She grabbed Pei Jingcang's hair and said, "You look awful now, so dark and ugly. Don't touch me."
At first, Ah Li wanted to cherish this man, but now she thinks it's better to give up.
This person is even more powerful than he was five hundred years ago!
Pei Jingcang, panting, kissed Ah Li and said, "Then I'll tidy myself up properly later and give you back a handsome husband."
"Let me take a closer look at you now. You have no idea how I've gotten through all these years."
Five hundred years after Pei Jingcang was sent back by the Reincarnation Mirror, he came to the South China Sea.
By then, there had been no trace of merfolk in the South China Sea, so he began to search for them.
He searched for a long time, but only found the pronunciation.
At that time, he learned from Nianyin that Ah Li was dead and their child was dead, and he had a destructive idea in his heart.
However, just as he had this thought, the pink pearl in his arms suddenly became hot.
Pei Jingcang was very puzzled.
At this moment, a knowledgeable old man appeared. He looked at the pearl in Pei Jingcang's hand and said, "Legend has it that when a pink pearl becomes hot, the mermaid who left it is also thinking of you."
"really?"
"It couldn't be more real."
This old man was a venerable being from the spirit world. He knew that after the demon god was brought back by the Mirror of Reincarnation, he did not continue to destroy the world, but instead kept searching for the merman race.
He also saw the demon god and a mermaid together in the Mirror of Reincarnation, and saw how they met, got to know each other, fell in love, and had their child.
The demon god at that time was different from the demon god before he entered the Mirror of Reincarnation. He had light in his eyes and love in his heart.
Therefore, it is these people who are wrong.
Who says a demon god must destroy the world? He can love people and live like an ordinary person.
Unfortunately, the Merfolk were wiped out.
Sensing that Pei Jingcang harbored thoughts of destroying the world again, the Venerable One transformed into an old man and told this well-intentioned lie.
