Chapter 5104 Still Dare to Come Back
Chapter 5104 Dare to come back
"Princess, you needn't be so polite." Feng Xi clasped her hands in a respectful gesture.
Seeing such beauty in the world inevitably softens one's heart, and the Little Mermaid seems to be in poor health, looking pitiful.
"What brings you to the Sea of Dreams? If my mermaid clan can help, we will not refuse." The mermaid princess's voice was soft, just like her figure, soothing to the ear and heart.
"I remember the Shadow Merfolk. They are body cultivators, but they are not violent. How could they be like this?" Xuanhuang asked, puzzled.
"I don't know either. Although we are of the same race, we haven't interacted for hundreds of years. Now, they've suddenly attacked." The mermaid princess gently shook her head.
"Where is your father?" Xuanhuang paused, but couldn't help asking.
After Xuanhuang finished speaking, the mermaid princess's lips kept drooping, and her emotions seemed to be unable to be contained any longer. Pearl-like tears streamed down her face.
"Father... Father, he... he's gone." The mermaid princess sobbed uncontrollably.
"Gone? Could you tell us more details? Perhaps we can help you." Xuanhuang looked at the weeping mermaid princess, seemingly at a loss.
Looking at the heartbroken Little Mermaid, it's hard not to feel pity. It seems her emotions have been suppressed for too long, with nowhere to be released, until this moment.
"I don't know either. My father suddenly disappeared hundreds of years ago," the mermaid princess said, weeping.
"Excuse me, does the Merfolk have anything that the Shadow Merfolk would covet?" Xiao Yan asked.
“Brother Xiao Yan’s thinking is absolutely right. There was no sudden attack; there must be some ulterior motive.” Xuan Huang nodded in agreement.
When asked, the Little Mermaid's tears gradually stopped. She hesitated, seemingly unsure whether to answer or not.
"Report!!"
Just then, several mermaid guards attacked from a distance, leaving long white trails of water behind them.
"Reporting to the princess, the Shadow Merfolk have returned!"
The mermaid guards clasped their hands in a fist salute and said in a deep voice that all the warriors of the Light Mermaid Clan had been mobilized, and even those who had seen some wounded did not choose to retreat.
When a race is threatened with extinction, it will spare no effort and exert all its strength to fight back fiercely!
In the world of mountains and seas, there are countless races. Unlike humans, they need unity to survive in this vast world, rather than individual strength.
"They actually dare to come back? Hmph, I'll go and deal with them." Xuan Huang snorted coldly, but Xiao Yan frowned instead.
The Shadow Mermaid Clan's counterattack was no simple feat, and Xiao Yan's gaze returned to the Mermaid Princess.
“If you don’t tell me what you’re hiding, no one can save you,” Xiao Yan said, and Xuan Huang then looked at the mermaid princess.
"I say... come with me." The mermaid princess swayed her fishtail, her incredibly graceful and fluid body moving as she swam into the distance.
Xiao Yan and the others hurriedly followed, and as they traveled, they arrived at the back of the underwater palace. This place was covered with dense seaweed, and the light was much dimmer.
"You damned bastard, I can feel it!"
"It's getting closer..."
A dog's eye flew out from the sleeve and appeared on Xiao Yan's shoulder, its eyes showing excitement.
After passing through the dense aquatic plants, a red glow gradually emanated from them, and a faint aura could be felt. Within it, a red sphere could be seen.
Its shape is not entirely regular, but rather wriggling and uneven, as if it were pregnant with something.
"Father, I often came here, until one day I suddenly disappeared. This thing appeared here inexplicably hundreds of years ago." The mermaid princess stopped, her sapphire-like eyes reflecting the red ball.
Before Xiao Yan could speak, the dog's eyes turned into blue light, and Damo followed suit. The two blue lights shot straight up and instantly entered the red sphere.
Boom! !
At this moment, a loud explosion came from afar. Above the underwater palace, the protective array had been activated, and all the Light Mermaid warriors were doing their best to protect it.
Xiao Yan didn't know what it was, but since the dog's eye went in, it probably sensed something.
"Oh no, without Father, this formation won't last much longer." The mermaid princess looked up worriedly; the light screen was trembling, indicating that the formation was under attack.
"Brother Xiao Yan, what do you think we should do next?" Xuan Huang did not act rashly, but looked at Xiao Yan, as if he trusted Xiao Yan's choice more.
"No rush, let's protect the formation first and wait a bit," Xiao Yan said.
"Feng Xi and I will go protect the formation first to buy some time for Brother Xiao Yan," Xuan Huang said. Xiao Yan nodded. That would be even better. Let's see what this red ball is.
Xuanhuang and Fengxi both moved, transforming into long rainbows and soaring upwards.
"What is this? Do you know, young master?" The mermaid princess looked at Xiao Yan and asked.
"You really don't know?" Xiao Yan asked back. The mermaid princess was stunned for a moment, then shook her head.
It was obvious that they were all vying for this item. As for what it was, Xiao Yan didn't know, but it should be of great benefit to them.
Just as Xiao Yan was waiting, another rumbling sound came, and the merfolk's protective array suddenly froze, revealing many cracks.
"The formation is about to break!" The mermaid princess trembled.
Looking into the distance, one can see a dark mass, which is a large number of Shadow Mermaids.
The protective array was struck again and collapsed, allowing countless shadowy mermaids to rush in.
Xiao Yan frowned slightly. With his Void Realm soul power, he quickly sensed that an aura was rapidly approaching.
As the aura rapidly approached, Xiao Yan immediately moved, drawing his fist to his waist and unleashing a powerful punch in one fluid motion!
The power of this punch needs no further explanation. In the instant it was unleashed, all the lush seaweed here was annihilated, while a powerful force also attacked from afar, directly confronting Xiao Yan's punch.
"I thought you ran away. It seems this item is very important to you." Xiao Yan looked into the distance and saw that the one fighting against him was the Shadow Mermaid King named Zhan Chao.
"You mere outsider, do you think you can threaten me? Without Xuanhuang's help, how could you be my match?" Zhan Chao sneered. In the distance, Xuanhuang and Fengxi seemed to be restrained by other forces.
Zhan Chao's aura surged, and he gripped the black trident in his palm, pointing it directly at Xiao Yan!
Xiao Yan glanced sideways. This place was too close to the red ball, so the first step was to protect it. The Heavenly Demon Divine Book appeared in his hand. With a thought, a page flew out and transformed into a powerful protective barrier that enveloped it.
"Senior Tianzang Wang, cut off their escape route at any time. Do not let them escape. If we capture one, we should be able to find clues about the Samsara Dharma Form!" Xiao Yan transmitted his voice through his soul.
