The Tidal King smiled and shook his head. "Ge 'er, I was already a dying man. Now that I've completed my mission, my child … you should be happy for me."
"No … Father, weren't you perfectly fine just now? How could this be?! "Tears welled up in Chao Ge's eyes as her voice trembled.
"The Suan Ni's blood isn't some miraculous elixir. It's only draining my life force. Perhaps if I continue to drink blood, I can live on for a few more years. But if that's the case, how am I any different from those demons? Cough cough … "
As he spoke, the Tidal King coughed violently a few times. Scarlet blood stained his clothes.
Princess Chao Ge cried as she hurriedly wiped away the Tidal King's blood. She then turned to Feng Yixiu and asked anxiously, "Young Master Feng, you're so powerful. You must have a way to save my father, right?"
Feng Yixiu, Shen Ruyu, and the others all shook their heads in silence.
The Tidal King's lifespan was nearing its end. The Suan Ni's blood was only a momentary recovery. This situation wasn't something that the Blackthorn Queen or the Azure Dragon Holy Lightning could save.
Even if the gods descended from the heavens, they probably wouldn't be able to restore a dying man's youth …
"Young Master Feng, why aren't you saying anything? You can definitely do it … "Princess Chao Ge stared at Feng Yixiu with reddened eyes and said anxiously.
"Ge 'er! Ge 'er … cough cough cough … "
The Tidal King weakly raised his arm and called out softly. In his anxiety, he spat out a few more mouthfuls of blood.
"Father … Father, I'm here!" Princess Chao Ge immediately turned around and gently grasped the Tidal King's aged hand.
"Ge 'er, I've always hoped that you could become the new Tidal Queen after my death. But you've always refused. That's why I had no choice but to let Ning' er inherit the throne. But now that Ning 'er has been harmed by demons, the entire Tidal Royal City can only rely on you from now on …"
The Tidal King looked at Chao Ge with a serious expression. He held her hand tightly as he spoke in a low voice.
"But … but can I really do it?" Chao Ge's lips trembled slightly as he asked softly.
"Child, I know that you don't like to fight, but you have the potential to make the entire ocean tremble. If you don't have the qualifications, then I'm afraid that no one in the entire Tidal Royalty has the qualifications!" the Tidal King said solemnly.
"Alright then … I won't let you down." Princess Chaoge bit her lip and agreed without thinking for too long.
"This is the Tidal Scepter. After receiving this scepter, you will be the new Tidal Queen of the entire Tidal Royal City. I hope that under your leadership, the Tidal Tribe will be able to return to its former glory!" The Tidal King presented the scepter to Chao Ge with both hands.
Chao Ge knelt on the ground with a solemn expression and received the heavy Tidal Scepter with both hands.
The moment Chaoge accepted the Tidal Scepter, the Tidal Scepter seemed to have acknowledged Chaoge as well. A gentle blue light enveloped Chaoge.
An exquisite sky-blue Tidal Mark appeared between Chaoge's brows. This meant that the Tidal Scepter had acknowledged Chaoge's qualifications to be the Tidal Queen!
If one looked closely, they would see that the Tidal Mark between Chaoge's brows was more complete than the Tidal King's. The royal aura it emitted was also more pure.
At the same time, the Tidal Mark between the Tidal King's brows gradually dimmed. His aura also became weaker and weaker.
At this moment, Queen Chaoge held the Tidal Scepter in her hand. Her entire body emitted a gentle yet tenacious royal aura. Although her appearance hadn't changed much, her aura had undergone a qualitative leap!
"Greetings, Your Highness!"
Xuanshui High Priest couldn't help but exclaim when he sensed the royal aura emitting from Chaoge's body. He immediately half-knelt on the ground and shouted loudly.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh …
Tens of thousands of Tidal Army soldiers knelt on the ground like a tidal wave. When they looked at Chaoge again, their gazes were filled with reverence for a king.
"Everyone, rise!"
Although Chaoge's voice wasn't loud, the aura she emitted was quite powerful.
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Xuanshui High Priest placed his right hand over his heart and slowly stood up.
Then, the tens of thousands of Tidal Army soldiers stood up in unison. None of them raised any objections.
The Tidal King glanced at Xuanshui High Priest and said in a deep voice, "High Priest, after I'm gone, you must do your best to assist Chaoge!"
"I will do my best, even if it means risking my life!" Xuanshui High Priest said solemnly.
