The Water Elemental King was a kind person. Before leaving, Sui Xiong mentioned to him that he wanted to buy the Water Elemental Heart, and he promised that he would send the Water Elemental Heart to the "Sanctuary" as soon as possible, but he didn't mention a word about the price.
This made Sui Xiong very uneasy, and he hurriedly asked what he should pay.
"I don't lack anything." The Water Elemental King said with a smile, "Don't underestimate an old guy who is even older than the Ring of the World. My wealth is beyond your imagination."
"But anyway, it's a very precious thing."
"It's just precious to you." The Water Elemental King said indifferently, "For me, there's nothing 'precious' in the world."
Sui Xiong was silent. This was like Boss Ma making up his mind to give away one million to spend. Of course, for ordinary people, after deducting the house that kept appreciating but couldn't be sold at the critical moment, their total net worth might not be one million or eight hundred thousand. However, for people like Boss Ma, one million or eight hundred thousand was really not a topic worth caring about. Maybe his daily income was more than this number.
So Sui Xiong could only sigh.
After sighing, he secretly remembered this favor and hoped to have a chance to repay it.
Although, he couldn't think of any way to repay it at the moment.
Generally speaking, the reaction of water elements was a bit slow. Among the four elements, they were only a little faster than the earth element which had been sleeping all year round. But the efficiency of the Water Elemental King was not slow at all. Not long after Sui Xiong left, before he had time to contact Ariel and talk about this in detail, its messenger had already visited Sui Xiong's Sanctuary in the Holy Kingdom.
Interestingly, the messenger was not a water elemental, but a legendary jellyfish.
This jellyfish was qualified to be a messenger, so its intelligence was naturally very high. For the world's most famous and powerful jellyfish god, it was very curious and respectful, and its words were extremely humble. Sui Xiong suspected that if he behaved more kindly and politely, maybe the other party would hug his thigh and cry, and sigh, "We jellyfish have been looking forward to your appearance for too long." or something like that.
What! This scene seemed to be seen in some historical novels …
But after all, this place was the messenger of the Water Elemental King, and there was no doubt that it was loyal to the Water Elemental King. So after some sighs, it still reluctantly left, leaving only a heavy gift that made Sui Xiong feel hot.
It was a box that could probably fit a child curled up his body and squeezed into it. Inside were layers upon layers of azure gems, each of which emitted the aura of water. With so many gems gathered together, not only did the surroundings become azure blue, but the air was also filled with the aura of water. Sui Xiong could even clearly hear the sound of waves.
Of course, he recognized it. It was the Water Elemental Heart.
A chest full of water elemental hearts.
A big box of Water Elemental Hearts!
After a moment of silence, he sighed deeply. "How am I supposed to return this favor …"
After a sigh, he contacted Ariel.
"I found the water elemental heart."
"Oh? We also found quite a few. How many did you find? "
"… A box."
"I'm sorry, I don't quite understand your quantifier. Why did you use 'box' instead of 'pearl' to describe the water elemental heart? Are you mistaking it for something else? "
"… Anyway, you'll know when you come and have a look," Sui Xiong said weakly. "Let them all come back. I think the number should be enough."
After a while, the incarnation of Ariel, a mermaid who was always surrounded by clear water, came to the "shelter".
When she saw the box of water elemental hearts, the expression on her face was very interesting.
"… Teacher, what on earth did you do?" After a moment of silence, she screamed and asked, "Which holy kingdom did you rob?"
"Don't describe your teacher as a robber. Besides … where do you think I can rob so many water elemental hearts?"
Ariel thought for a moment and shook her head. Then her eyes lit up, and then her eyes widened.
"You … you didn't rob the oldest of all the gods, did you?" She looked at Sui Xiong incredulously. "Oh my god! I only asked you to help me collect the water elemental hearts, but I didn't ask you to do that! You … this … this … this is too exaggerated! "
Sui Xiong naturally knew that the "oldest of all the gods" referred to the King of Water Element. But in the past, he only thought that the King of Water Element was an ancient god like the Goddess of Life. He didn't expect that the King of Water Element was actually a super senior who was even earlier than the Great Circulation. He was a strong person from the last era before the creation of the world.
So he smiled bitterly and shook his head. "Don't think so highly of me. His Majesty the King of Water Element is so powerful and blessed. How could I dare to rob him?"
"Then where did they come from? Except for the treasury of His Majesty's holy kingdom, I really can't think of any other place that could have so many water elemental hearts. "
"He gave them to me," Sui Xiong said concisely.
Ariel naturally couldn't believe it. She shook her head repeatedly. "I'm talking to you very seriously. Please don't always joke around, okay?"
Sui Xiong was also speechless. He smiled bitterly and said, "I'm really not joking. This is really a gift from the King of Water Element."
"Is he a good friend of you? Why would he give you such a generous gift? "Ariel didn't believe it." Why didn't he give me a gift? "
"… How would I know?" Sui Xiong sighed and said, "But the gift was indeed sent by him. His messenger has just left. Many people here have seen the messenger."
Ariel frowned and looked at Sui from left to right, up and down, which made him very uncomfortable.
After a while, she asked curiously, "I once heard a rumor that the God of Virtue eventually disappeared in the sea. Maybe he became something that lived in the water …"
Sui Xiong was stunned for a moment. Then he understood what she meant and shook his head repeatedly. "You think too much. I'm not the God of Virtue."
"Except for the God of Virtue, I can't think of anyone else who has such a great reputation."
"I also just realized that I have such a great reputation …" Sui Xiong smiled helplessly. "Anyway, this many water elemental hearts should be enough for you, right?"
"Yes, it's more than enough." Ariel glanced around the box and pointed at it. About a dozen water elemental hearts flew up. One of them was especially blue, revealing a kind of intoxicating beauty. It was completely different from the others.
"These are enough," she said. "These, together with the ones we collected before, are not only enough to build the water elemental pool, but also to increase its scale to another level. Although with the ones in the box, it can be increased by a few levels, but considering the balance of the whole Holy Kingdom, this is the limit. "
"Then what about the rest?" Sui Xiong asked. "Do I have to return them?"
"You don't have to return them. His Majesty the Water Elemental King probably doesn't care about them. You might as well keep them for yourself. Maybe you will need them in the future." Ariel put away the dozen water elemental hearts, thanked Sui Xiong, and left in a hurry.
She had to go back to build the water elemental pool.
Seeing Ariel leave, Sui Xiong looked at the box of water elemental hearts that had not decreased. He was silent for a long time and sighed deeply.
He always felt … a lot of pressure!
