Tang Ling really could not understand what was going on behind the scenes.
Just like how he understood that the Stardust Council had contacted the merfolk beforehand, he could also understand why the merfolk accepted the Stardust Council for some reason.
The only thing he could not understand was that the root of the chaos was a young merfolk boy named Wu Mingzhu. He fell in love with a woman from the Stardust Council and acted willfully.
"Fine, I'll admit that my people have some cooperation with the Stardust Council. However, not all of us believe in the Stardust Council.
We, the merfolk, yearn for peace in our bones. All we want is to fight for the living space of the merfolk. We're not that ambitious. That's why we wouldn't make such a decision and use such a method to announce our existence to the humans.
"Don't be surprised. There are many higher-ups in the human hierarchy who know about the merfolk. Since those filthy Underground races have crawled up to the surface, why don't the merfolk exist as well? After all, the records of the Underground races are scarce and there are no legends about them. And our mermaid race has left behind so many legends. "
Tang Ling recalled what Cai Wuzhu said and shrugged. Cai Wuzhu's anxiety was not an act. What kind of idiot would put his people in danger for the sake of his so-called love?
Tang Ling explained everything to Higan while she listened quietly. She was not as disgusted about Wu Mingzhu as Tang Ling pretended to be. She commented softly, "He's quite pitiful."
"Why is he pitiful?" Tang Ling's IQ was high, but his EQ was low in certain aspects. Higan might be lazy to care about others, but as a girl, she was naturally more sensitive than boys.
"Because his love that he risked everything for is destined to fail. Those who truly love him won't make use of him," said Higan.
Tang Ling went quiet for a while and did not comment further. After all, he was still a teenager and could not understand how powerful love was. Even with Higashi on the other side, the pure feelings between the teenagers had yet to reach a level where Tang Ling could understand the depth of it.
He did not want to comment on the matter either, so he said, "That's why I made a deal with Cai Wuzhu. She said that due to her concerns, she couldn't solve the problem herself. I think she must be shouldering the pressure from her people and can't afford to offend the Stardust Council. "
"Is the deal just to stop the Dark Abyss Pearl?" Higan asked.
Tang Ling stretched his body and hugged Higan. "Not all of them. There are still some other conditions. I couldn't be bothered to explain the details. The most important condition was that she had to enter the Death Fog Zone. If necessary, I would need to help her. The premise is that she won't compete with me for resources. "
Higan tilted her head and thought about it, but she did not say anything. She suddenly thought of Tang Ling's personality, so she could not help but ask, "Why would you agree to it out of nowhere? Didn't you take anything from them? "
Tang Ling blushed a little, which was rare for him. He grumbled, "She'll have to risk her life to turn the tide. Besides, she bragged that the merfolk are rich, so she's not ambitious and only wants peace. I think since it's rich and populous, then … "
"What did you take? Does it have anything to do with your sudden increase in strength? " Higan asked again. As a matter of fact, Tang Ling's sudden increase in strength was a worrying matter because this sudden increase in strength would have side effects. Higan had to get to the bottom of it.
"As a matter of fact, it's just a temporary war seed. It's not as good as the one I got back then. It's a war seed with ten times the normal strength … "Tang Ling's voice sounded a little drowsy as he yawned and said," But compared to before, I'm a lot stronger. This war seed … Hmm, erm … "
Exhaustion came quickly, and Tang Ling dared not stimulate his body with the energy liquid anymore. Like a tired man who forcefully consumed something that refreshed his mind, it would be a huge burden on his body and might even lead to sudden death.
Tang Ling's body was not strong enough to cause sudden death, but he did not want to leave any hidden injuries in his body when he was about to become a Purple Moon Warrior. Boss Huang only had a few medicine packets left.
"How do I wake everyone up with the conch?" Higan stood up and asked Tang Ling to lie down on the chair.
Tang Ling forced himself to stay awake as he gestured and said, "Both ears, 10 seconds each. Ahead, on the boat ahead, there's, there's my stuff. Bring it, bring it over. The Dancing Pearls won't care, except for the people on the Harvest. No, don't wake them up … "
Up until that point, the surging exhaustion and intense drowsiness engulfed Tang Ling completely. He could not utter another word and fell into a deep sleep in the next second.
Looking at Tang Ling, Higan softly planted a kiss on his forehead. She then whispered to Tang Ling who was sleeping soundly, "I understand what you're trying to do for me. I'll be obedient and cherish myself, but you have to do the same. "
"Thank you. You'll stay with me." As she spoke, she removed the Heart Resonance Conch from Tang Ling's neck.
She stood up and looked at the fog around her. She knew that this would be a safe and quiet journey, but it was not a journey that could make people feel at ease. Because she did not know what they would face after they passed this part of the sea.

Kun felt a little bored.
Looking at the mist flowing between his fingers, he played with it for a long time with great interest. Then, he waved his hand and let the mist float away.
He was rowing a boat on what seemed to be a river. The starlight shone down from the sky and reflected in Kun's eyes as he lay on the boat.
The mist on the river was gentle, but it could not hide the stars in the sky.
Yes, this was Kun's garden after all. He could decorate it however he liked. Everything was up to him.
Beside the little boat floated a tri-colored glimmering flower. It looked like nine little lotus flowers lined up in a row, forming a flower that looked like a smiling face. It did not seem like it would change according to Kun's will.
Kun was not concerned about the situation. He simply picked up the silver wine pot beside him and downed a mouthful of wine. Shorty Twenty, on the other hand, was carrying a huge basket that did not match his size. He used a clip that seemed to be made out of superalloy to pick up the flowers from the river and toss them into the basket. He even muttered, "Master, even if you're bored, you shouldn't play with the Stamen Nine Lotus."
"The Stamen Nine Lotus is also a precious resource for us."
Kun's eyes were filled with drunkenness. He did not even care about Shorty Twenty. When Shorty Twenty picked up the flowers, Kun waved his hand and used a force to toss the flowers into the river.
"Shorty Twenty is right. The Stamen Nine Lotus isn't something to play with. We've only released one into the Mystic State, haven't we? "It was then that Ya's voice entered Kun's ears.
Kun tidied up his black silk robe and sat up. He said, "Ya, this is my place. Why can't you come and go as you please? Have you asked for my permission? "
"I don't have to ask for your permission if it's important. Are you sure the time won't change when the new dream is opened? " Ya was wearing a dark red suit and black pants. He stood in the air and said that to Kun.
