Wei Junlan came out of the tent, and the eyes of the mermen waiting outside lit up obviously, like a bunch of puppies when they see their owner.
“Holy ancestor.”
“Roll.”
Ba Tian didn’t give up and followed.
Wei Junlan drew a sword from her space ring and pointed it directly at his front, “Don’t think that if you annoy me, I won’t dare to kill you.”
Ba Tian felt a fierce coercion coming towards his face, suppressing him and unable to move, he knelt down on the ground with a plop, and lowered his head. When the coercion on his body was loosened and he raised his head again, he saw that figure had disappeared before his eyes.
Voices from dozens of miles away were clearly transmitted to Qian Wanyu’s ears, especially since Wei Junlan’s voice wasn’t low.
Dongfang Minghui saw Wei Junlan leave angrily, and carefully opened a corner of the tent, and found that the merpeople tribes outside were still adhering to the principle of the separated boundary. The little mute was facing them, and the people in his clan were gesticulating and making rapid hand signs. As for Ba Tian, he came back dejectedly, and when he keenly sensed that someone was peeping at him, he gave a hard look in the direction of the tent.
Dongfang Minghui put down the tent guiltily, and took a step back, “Seventh sister, why do you have to let Wei Junlan stay?”
Qian Wanyu knew that she would have asked sooner or later, so she stretched out her hand and pulled her to sit beside her, explaining carefully, “I think the purpose of the people behind the scenes is to achieve their huge ambitions by controlling the undead. We can find them in such a remote place in the sea area, and if you think about how Her Majesty the Queen was poisoned with black medicine when we arrived at the elves, there are traces of their hands everywhere.”
“It seems so.”
Sometimes the pattern determines the vision, Dongfang Minghui only cares about the square inch around her, she is good, Seventh sister is good, everyone is good.
Qian Wanyu saw the entire Seven Colors Continent. She played with the opponent’s fingers in her hand and said casually, “Let’s make a hypothesis now, assuming that Wei Junlan was still trapped in the Bi Arena base, assuming that she was completely Controlled, just like my uncle did a lot of unavoidable things. Those people won the Holy Pill for this, in order to better control Wei Junlan, and then take down the mermaid clan in one fell swoop. In fact, it is an easy task. It’s not far from the hidden place of the elves, guess where they will go next after controlling the mermaids?”
“It’s the elves.”
Dongfang Minghui still understands the reason why the lips are dead and the teeth are cold. She murmured, “So that’s how it is.”
Qian Wanyu nodded lightly, presumably Wei Junlan was so annoyed because she understood this truth, now these things were not just personal matters, sometimes you have to make a choice when faced with a hard decision.
Even though she understood, Dongfang Minghui still felt sorry for Wei Junlan. She changed from a human to a mermaid, and she accidentally inherited the spiritual power of the ancestor of the merpeople clan, “If… if this can make her not transform anymore, I think this can be regarded as a gift from heaven to her.”
“As long as she can sort it out.”
There is nothing more important than living well in the world, and then choosing a path to becoming stronger that suits you.
Wei Junlan found a place with an excellent view, and sat down lazily, with her body leaning back slightly, supported by tree trunks behind her. From her visual angle, she could see the situation on the sea surface clearly. It was clear, and the calm sea gave anyone a feeling of refreshment. After watching it for a while, her depression was slightly relieved.
“What is the purpose of human life?”
After Wei Junlan woke up in this world, for the sake of Jun Yi, she had no choice but to be a young master. The young master’s position could not be compromised on if she wanted to save him, according to Qian Wanyu’s words now, for the sake of the entire merpeople clan, she must compromise again.
“Ah–”
A figure flashed in her mind, and Wei Junlan suddenly remembered the five-chain lock in the wall cave. That person once taught her how to open the lock. Thinking of this, she immediately sat up straight.
The iron box moved from the space ring to her front with her thoughts, and the five-link lock shook a bit. Compared with ordinary locks, the five-link lock is more difficult.
“I want to see what the little mute is protecting…”
It seemed that she was competing with herself, Wei Junlan rubbed her hands together, and found a long and thin hairpin from her hair. This hairpin was the last thing Xuan Zhu had left her, and it was the best weapon for picking locks. She fiddled with it for a while, but the lock hadn’t been opened yet, until she heard slight footsteps.
The little mute held a big porcelain pot in his hand and stared at her blankly.
“What are you doing here?”
“Ahh.”
The little mute also wanted to ask Wei Junlan what she was doing sitting there, so he quickly stepped forward, walked around Wei Junlan, and walked behind her.
There was a small mound behind the tree, the area of the mound was relatively small. It is impossible to see what it is. Wei Junlan stared at the little mute’s actions with great interest.
The little mute first pulled out all the weeds around him. After finishing these things, he opened the big porcelain pot and poured a little water in front of the small mound. A scent of wine rushed into Wei Junlan’s nostrils unexpectedly.
She did not like wine, but she did like to taste it. She could handle the temptation by taking a sip of any wine slowly. “What kind of wine is this? It’s so fragrant. Hey, little mute, leave some for me to taste.”
The little mute glanced at her displeasedly, went straight to his own work, and then pointed at the small mound of dirt and kowtowed reverently, making three heavy bows.
The sound really startled Wei Junlan, she was suddenly aware of what he was doing and waited until the little mute left before reacting.
“What the-”
There is actually a grave behind her…
Wei Junlan stood up resentfully, holding the heavyweight iron box, neither leaving nor staying. She wailed, threw the iron box on the ground, and walked back to the grave, “My lord, don’t fault this villain, just give me a chance to ease my mood. If you don’t mind, I’ll try this wine too hehe, one sip?”
“Hey, since you’re not speaking, I’ll take it as your consent.”
Wei Junlan took the porcelain bottle and sniffed lightly at the mouth of the bottle, “Old wine is fine wine.”
“Seventh sister, where did Wei Junlan go, she hasn’t come back despite it being so late, is she still depressed?”
“Don’t think about it, she’s quite strong.” Qian Wanyu thought to himself, Wei Junlan changed from a human to a beast, and then to a mermaid… During the whole process, the other party acted carefree as if nothing happened, what could possibly happen now?
Dongfang Minghui thought it was wrong after thinking about it, so she went out to look for her, under the leadership of the little mute, she found Wei Junlan who was sitting by a tree, drunk and unconscious, and when she took her away, she insisted on taking her iron box.
“Come on, she’s really quite strong after all.” She was worried for nothing.
The other party slept until the sun was about three quarters up before waking up. When she turned her head, she found that Qian Wanyu and Dongfang Minghui were surrounding an iron box. The five-chain lock was opened, and there was no treasure inside. Most of them were letters and exercises, and they belonged to the merpeople clan.
“Here, take a look.”
The letter was left by the ancestor. It can be said that the letter recorded the journey in the heart of the ancestor. He wanted to bring a bigger and wider territory to the merpeople clan, which led him to do something eager for quick success. A technique that made the merpeople lose their abilities… Fortunately, he found the right way to correct his mistakes.
It’s just that for some reason, he was trapped in that hole, and he couldn’t send this thing out even when he was dying.
Wei Junlan sat up straight suddenly, her head was still aching, and she found that there was still a strong smell of alcohol on her body, so she frowned in distaste, “When did I come back?”
“You were crying and making noise while hugging the grave, and the little mute and I brought you back.” Thinking of the angry look of the little mute, Dongfang Minghui bad-heartedly refused to remind Wei Junlan of the immoral things she had done.
“What did you just say, that I was holding what and crying?!”
“That’s right, when we dragged you back, you still refused to come back. You insisted on saying that after drinking this drink, you will be a good brother with him in the future… Everything I said is true, and the little mute can also testify.”
Wei Junlan was so shocked that she collapsed back again. She tapped her head lightly, feeling dizzy, and was very surprised when she saw the unlocked box, “Hey, who solved this?”
“Isn’t it you?” Dongfang Minghui glanced at her inexplicably.
“Me?”
Wei Junlan still didn’t believe it, the five chains were too difficult to solve, she couldn’t solve it. She had gotten agitated and accidentally poured all the wine into her stomach did she. Who would have thought that the good wine of the merpeople race would have such strong strength!
“I couldn’t have solved it.”
“It must be a dream.”
There were formations on the entire isolated island. Except for a few people present, almost no one has touched the iron box. Dongfang Minghui guessed that Wei Junlan must have untied the five chains after being drunk, “Okay, just take a good rest, and Seventh sister and I will go to the forest to have a look.”
Wei Junlan was still knocking on her head until they left. She opened the iron box and found that there was nothing of the expected treasure or anything but a scroll and a letter.
“This was really hidden enough.”
She wanted to see what caused a group of people to come and want to steal it.
Wei Junlan couldn’t stop after reading…
Qian Wanyu held Dongfang Minghui’s hand and walked to the side of the formation stone. Checking the stability of the formation every day has become something she must do now. In fact, she just wanted to live a two-person world with her Ninth Sister. “Wait until Wei Junlan’s matter is over and we have to leave the Merpeople Clan.”
“Yeah.”
They have been out for too long, they still had no clue if the three major tribes of the beast people have started a war, and they had no idea what happened to Qian Mama.
After patrolling around and making sure that the formation was all right, the two of them held hands and walked back slowly.
Dongfang Minghui asked the little mute to summon all the people from his tribe, she checked them one by one, and found that their wounds had healed, and their bones were better than before, so she suggested, “Although the underwater world is good, you should go ashore occasionally to bask in the sun.”
Ba Tian consciously summoned his clansmen to the side, and when the charm merpeople clan dispersed, he took the initiative to approach Dongfang Minghui. He probably knew that Dongfang Minghui was the only doctor here, so he was very polite to her.
However, he was very unfriendly to Qian Wanyu.
Wei Junlan heard the noise outside and opened the tent, just in time for a ray of sunlight to come in, the light was still a bit strong. She narrowed her eyes slightly, and when she opened them again, she saw a group of merpeople scrambling to get in front of Dongfang Minghui, and the excitement made her feel happier.
A black shadow enveloped the top of the head, and the beautiful halo suddenly disappeared like a bubble. Wei Junlan raised her head, and saw Qian Wanyu walking in front at some point, looking at her with a smile that was not a smile.
“Come in…”
The tent has been placed on this isolated island for a long time. From the beginning since they escaped here till they turned the isolated island into a shelter to house the charm merpeople then the imprisoned merpeople… The population of this isolated island has risen a lot, even the plants seemed a bit angry.
Seeing the other party walking up and down the tent, Wei Junlan lost her composure, “I know what you want to say.”
After Qian Wanyu looked around, she fiddled with the iron box, “Actually, I don’t want to say anything more. I discussed it with Ninth Sister. We will leave here once the matter is settled.”
As soon as she heard that they were leaving, Wei Junlan stood up abruptly and murmured, “So soon?”
“Soon?”
In order to send Lu Xing back to the elves, they had already spent nearly half a year.
Qian Wanyu pointed out, “According to Ninth Sister, your beast transformation will gradually disappear after you finish your transformation into a mermaid.”
This is good news.
Wei Junlan touched her smooth cheeks. Yesterday she accidentally saw her reflection on the sea surface, and the scales that disappeared before appeared again, but now it seems to be better again. Except for the headache, her whole body is full of spiritual power, her facial features were sharp and beautiful again with no beast features. After the situation was brought under control with medication, it was true that there was no recurrence, but… since a month ago she had run out of medication.
Obviously it was a blessing in disguise, but she didn’t know if it was truly a blessing…
“I’ve decided to stay.” Wei Junlan thought she was quite selfish, but when she saw the silly and innocent smiles on the faces of these merpeople, she felt that she should do something. They had somewhat contributed to pulling her up from hell, if not for anything else but gratitude, she had to stay. “However, Qian Wanyu, you have to promise me one thing.”
Qian Wanyu raised his eyebrows, obviously asking why there were still conditions.
“Just in case, what I mean is… in case, in case I die in the merpeople tribe, I hope you will help Jun Yi when he takes over the Blood Fiend Alliance, until he can control it himself.”
Qian Wanyu looked displeased, and was about to say something when Wei Junlan interrupted again, “For the sake of Minghui and I being fellow villagers, you must promise me.”
Qian Wanyu really wanted to say, judging by her current advancement speed, if anyone wanted to kill her it would not be easy and the enemy would likely have to pay a very heavy price. Not to mention, once the merpeople clan grows strong, who would dare to do anything in this sea area unless they wanted to court death.
“Okay, I promise you for Ninth Sister’s sake.”
Wei Junlan nodded happily, since the female protagonist herself had promised her, she didn’t have to worry anymore, she handed the highest spirit card of the Blood Fiend Alliance to Qian Wanyu, “If you meet the Great Elder, tell him my decision, he will understand.”
The corners of Qian Wanyu’s eyes were slightly wrinkled, she sneered, and said sarcastically, “When did Young Master Wei become so timid, your courage has gotten smaller than the ants I’ve seen, if you don’t care about this thing then just throw it yourself.”
Wei Junlan was taken aback for a moment, but she didn’t dare to “force it” onto her.
“Next, you have to unify the fragmented Merpeople Clan, and…” Qian Wanyu discussed several key points with Wei Junlan, and the two made a unified plan for the current situation of the Merpeople Clan.
As the sun was setting, Qian Wanyu and Dongfang Minghui stood on the shore and said goodbye to everyone.
The little mute tugged on Dongfang Minghui’s sleeve with some reluctance, and gestured quickly, as if trying to lead the way.
Seeing his anxious look, Dongfang Minghui quickly took out a crude topographic map of the sea area from her space ring, and pointed to it, “We already know the way out of the sea area, little mute, don’t worry, just listen to Wei Junlan.”
The little mute shook his head, and he had to obediently listen to Wei Junlan’s words after hearing it. The little mute pouted unhappily like a child, obviously remembering that Wei Junlan drank all the sacrificial wine he put in front of the grave…
“Take care of yourself.”
The two held hands and jumped into the sea together. The water cover firmly covered the two, and they went away bit by bit.
Wei Junlan is all grown up and left the nest :'(
