This reminded Tu Ling of how she had eaten a mermaid pearl and turned into a merman. Was the pearl really from the mermaids? Or was it actually from the mermaids?
After understanding the whole story, the mermaid picked up her cub and said she would go to the king to thank him.
The king was playing with the pearl on his neck at this time. Mermaids were born in darkness and had never seen anything so white and beautiful. At this time, his men informed him that the mermaid was coming to express their gratitude.
He was in a good mood now and agreed.
The mermaid proudly held her back high, and appeared neither humble nor overbearing even when facing the king of the mermaids. Her golden hair, bright starry eyes, and white skin gave people a feeling of nobility and holiness. Just one look at her could cleanse the soul.
Wang Ye was dazzled by the sight. He didn't expect that this female would be so beautiful after waking up.
The mermaid imitated the others and bowed: "Mermaid Lan Ji thanks the king for his help."
She put the cub down in her arms and patted her on the back: "Lanxi, thank the king."
In an instant, the mermaids watching gasped, because Lan Xi was the name of their mermaid queen. Everyone looked over and saw that the queen's face couldn't be worse.
Lance asked worriedly, "Mother...are you okay?"
Lan Xi's eyes were filled with poison as he looked at Lance viciously: "It's all your fault! If it weren't for this female master, there wouldn't be so many problems!"
Lance was startled by her gaze. Was this still the noble and sacred queen who treated him so well? Besides, wasn't she just saved by a mermaid a thousand years ago? Why was she so angry?
"No, Queen Mother, the Queen..."
"Enough! I don't want to hear anything." Lan Xi already knew what would happen next. She was powerless to stop it and could only wait for the judgment of fate.
Tu Ling pulled Lance back and said, "If you have anything to say, wait until you've seen all this before you say it."
The young Lan Xi had a cheesy voice. He had short limbs but a very beautiful tail, like a doll: "Mother, Xiaoxi can't see where the king is."
Lan Ji looked at Lan Xi strangely, and waved her hand in front of Lan Xi in disbelief. Lan Xi couldn't see it at all: "King! Lan Xi!"
"Don't worry, her eyes are fine. It's just that there's no light here, so it's normal that she can't see."
Upon hearing this, Lan Ji looked around curiously. She could see everything clearly.
"You can see at night because you were contaminated by my mermaid pearl." The king continued, "You don't have to thank me. I got what I wanted."
He lifted the pearl from his neck to indicate that he had not saved people in vain.
When she saw the pearls in Wang's hand, Lan Ji seemed to react and touched her neck in panic, then tried to grab the pearl necklace. Wang subconsciously dodged, and Lan Ji pounced on him.
The hard chest muscles collided with the mermaid's soft body. Wang panicked instantly and pushed the mermaid away. "What are you doing?"
Lan Ji was pushed to the ground and pleaded pitifully to the king: "That was given to me by my favorite male. He died in the mouth of a sharp-toothed fish not long ago. I almost died there too. This pearl necklace is the only thing he left me."
She knelt on the ground, about to cry: "I can agree to anything you want, except this."
Wang was a little unhappy at this moment: "But this is what you promised to give me, I can't give it back to you."
“I was unconscious at the time!” Lan Ji pulled Lan Xi over and knelt on the ground. “Hurry up and beg the king to return your father’s things to us!”
Lan Xi couldn't see the surroundings, she only heard her mother crying miserably, and she pulled her to her knees, it was so painful that she burst into tears and begged with sobs: "King, please return my father's things to us."
Wang's face turned completely black: "Okay, I'll give it back to you."
Lan Ji showed surprise on her face.
"Someone, throw this mermaid into the school of fangtooth fish!"
Since she doesn't need his help, he can only return the wound to her!
The merman came over and grabbed Lan Ji. Lan Ji looked panicked: "King! I can make you one identical one! No, make ten!"
Wang looked impatient: "You are not lying to me?"
"Absolutely not!"
"Okay, I'll give you a chance. Let her go. As for this necklace, I'll return this one to you when you make ten for me." After saying that, the mermaid drove the man out.
The mermaids followed Lan Ji and her daughter out of the cave, and were all moved by Lan Ji's behavior: "I didn't expect that the queen's mother loved her male so much that she dared to fight so bravely for a pearl necklace. It's so touching."
Lan Jiao looked at Tu Ling: "What do you think?"
"What do you mean, how do I see it?" Tu Ling was stunned by his incoherent question.
"Do you also think Lan Ji is affectionate?"
"Maybe. On the surface, she seems very affectionate, but who knows what she's really like behind the scenes?" Tu Ling looked meaningfully at Lan Ji, who was leisurely carrying Lan Xi to find Zhenzhu. "But no matter whether her affection is real or not, if I were the Mermaid King, I would definitely ignore her."
She would not let her spoils run away just because of other people's deep affection and loyalty.
"What do you... think of the Mermaid King?"
"Pretty handsome." Tu Ling seemed to be saying it casually, but she actually thought he was quite handsome. Ever since she came to the Beast World, those males, although strong and sturdy, were useless. She probably couldn't defeat them all by herself. But this Mermaid King was a bit interesting. He seemed to have energy fluctuations. She pulled Lan Jiao over and asked, "Is he like you, able to control darkness and bring people into dreams?"
Lan Jiao looked at Tu Ling who was holding her arm, and her ears turned red. "Don't pull it. I'm still a decent woman. If you keep doing this, I won't be able to find a partner."
"Tsk, what a mess you learned in the apocalypse."
Tu Ling released his arm and swam closer to Lan Ji. Then he heard her say, "This cave is really nice. I'm going to live here from now on."
Later, the days passed very ordinary. Lan Ji was looking for pearls every day, but her efficiency was really intoxicating. The mermaids were worried about her. She could get the pearls by crying a few times, so why bother searching in the sea?
Every time she found one, Lan Ji would be eager to find the Mermaid King. Everyone knew that Lan Ji had fallen in love with the Mermaid King, and the Mermaid King also developed feelings for her after Lan Ji's long-term companionship.
Tu Ling used to think that the Mermaid King was actually a bit of a straight man, but now that a straight man has come to his senses, he is truly extremely sexy.
He shows his affection to his subordinates in various ways every day, and they are used to it. Every time they pretend to be envious and jealous to make Wang happy.
On the day they officially held the ceremony, the Mermaid King also revealed a good news to his people: he was pregnant!
Tu Ling: ??? Is this the pregnancy she understood?
Mermaid: ???
Lance:!!!
Lan Jiao:........
The mermaids and Lan Jiao all had the same expression of having eaten shit on their faces.
