In the guest room that the Mermaid Clan had arranged for Lu Ye, he sat quietly and activated the power of the Talent Tree to deduce the concealment spirit tattoos.
During this period of time, when he was helping the Constellation Hall to weed, he was also multitasking to deduce the spirit tattoos. This took a long time, so the sooner he started, the better.
The ghost tattoos that he observed from Ghost Spirit had a great effect on this deduction. In the process of deduction, all kinds of strange ideas kept flashing in his mind, changing the arrangement and structure of some of the Yin and Yang elements in the concealment spirit tattoos.
The progress was quite smooth, and Lu Ye estimated that this deduction might not take as long as half a year.
This made him more interested in the aura concealing ghost tattoos on Ghost Spirit. It was a pity that he didn't see it last time, and he wouldn't have a chance in the future.
There was a knock on the door.
Lu Ye looked up and activated his Divine Thought. He sensed Bai Lu's aura outside and said, "Come in!"
The door was opened, and Bai Lu walked in with a tray in her hand, her fishtail swaying.
She raised it a little high, so Lu Ye couldn't see what was on the tray. He asked curiously, "What's the matter?"
Bai Lu smiled and explained, "The elders said that if you humans have guests, you will usually hold a welcome dinner for them, so they asked me to come over and make it up to you."
Saying so, she placed the tray in her hand on the table. Only then did Lu Ye see clearly that the tray was filled with slices of jade-white meat. She didn't know what kind of Star Beast it was, but there was also a wine pot and two wine cups.
Lu Ye was a little curious. In such an environment, star beast meat was easy to get, so how did the Mermaid Clan make wine? There didn't seem to be any conditions for making wine here.
He stood up and walked to the table. He picked up the wine pot, opened it, and sniffed it. Sure enough, there was a strong fragrance of wine. Under the influence of Third Senior Brother Li Baxian and Pu Ke, he also occasionally drank wine. Just by smelling the wine, he knew that it was good wine.
Bai Lu had already introduced the origin of the meat to Lu Ye. It really came from a star beast that lived under the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea. Bai Lu said that it was a star beast called Jade Shark. Lu Ye had never seen it before, but according to Bai Lu, it was extremely rare even in the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea. Its meat was very tender and sweet, a rare delicacy.
As for this wine pot, it was personally brewed by the previous Queen. It had been kept for many years in the Mermaid Clan, and it was not used easily.
After the introduction, Bai Lu gestured, "Try it?"
Lu Ye took a deep look at her, then sat down expressionlessly. She reached out and picked up a piece of meat, then placed it in her mouth and chewed carefully. Sure enough, it was as Bai Lu had said, the meat was tender and sweet. What was rare was that this thing contained an extremely pure and enormous amount of energy. Like Bai Ling, it belonged to the kind of meat that not only had great edible value, it could also be used to refine pills. If it was placed outside, it would definitely be fought over by cultivators, and its value would definitely be greater than Bai Ling's.
He immersed his consciousness into his Talent Tree, but there was no movement at all. . There was nothing wrong with the meat.
Bai Lu poured the wine and placed a cup in front of Lu Ye. She also poured a cup for herself. Looking at the wine in the cup, a look of reminiscence flashed across her eyes. She seemed to be a little sad.
Lu Ye remembered that she said that the wine was personally brewed by the previous Queen. Since Bai Lu was a princess, then the previous Queen must be her mother.
He faintly guessed that the reason Bai Lu was sad was probably because she thought of her mother.
Bai Lu raised the wine cup in her hand and looked at Lu Ye with a smile. "Li Taibai, thank you for coming. Even more, thank you for the help you provided to my clan."
Lu Ye said indifferently, "That was just an exchange." Bai Lu insisted, "Even so, if it weren't for your help, we wouldn't have been able to defeat the enemy so easily. More of our clansmen would have died." Saying this, she finished the wine in the cup.
Lu Ye lowered his eyes slightly and looked at the wine cup in front of him. He also picked it up and drank it.
There was still nothing wrong with the Talent Tree.
Was he thinking too much? But Bai Lu obviously didn't seem right this time. Although she concealed the unnaturalness of her expression very well, it couldn't escape Lu Ye's observation. Moreover, she didn't dare to look at his eyes at all, as if she was avoiding something.
Eating a piece of meat and drinking a mouthful of wine, Bai Lu was a lively person. At this moment, she also opened her mouth and chatted with Lu Ye.
But what made Lu Ye feel a little speechless was that after a few cups of wine, Bai Lu's small face turned red, and her eyes were obviously a little hazy and drunk.
She, a late-stage Constellation Cultivator, was actually drunk! This was simply a strange story.
But considering that this wine was brewed by her mother, it wasn't difficult to understand that she was reluctant to use her power to dissolve the alcohol.
Suddenly, Bai Lu said, "I want to sing!" Lu Ye nodded. "I'm all ears!"
She sang as she spoke, and a mellow and melodious voice came out from Bai Lu's mouth. It wasn't Thought Resonance, and Bai Lu used the Merfolk language, so Lu Ye naturally couldn't understand.
But Lu Ye felt an extremely strong sense of nostalgia from the song. As she sang, Bai Lu's eyes reddened, and tears streamed down her face.
Lu Ye didn't disturb her, and just listened quietly.
But gradually, Lu Ye noticed that something was wrong, because the song, which was originally full of nostalgia, had at some point become weeping and complaining, as if a woman living alone in her boudoir was pouring out her longing for her lover. The song didn't have any decadent sound, and was still so mellow and gentle. Lu Ye, on the other hand, felt a restlessness in her body that was itching to give it a try, and a nameless fire rose in her lower abdomen. Every time the song rose and fell, it was like a basin of oil was poured on this fire.
He had been paying attention to the Talent Tree's movements, but until now, the Talent Tree hadn't reacted at all!
He was secretly surprised. The song of the Merfolk was really mysterious, and even the Talent Tree couldn't restrain it. But then again, the Talent Tree could only restrain things that invaded his body and were harmful to him. The song was invisible, so the Talent Tree really couldn't restrain it.
Bai Lu's eyes were still slightly red, but it was obvious that there was no longer the sadness and nostalgia from before. Instead, there was a hint of charm. Her singing continued, and her eyes stared straight at Lu Ye, the charm in her eyes almost condensing into water.
Not only that, but her body also exuded a strange fragrance. That fragrance entered Lu Ye's nose, increasing the reaction of the nameless fire in his lower abdomen.
Although Lu Ye wasn't a saint among men, and he would still take a second look at beautiful women when he saw them, especially those with strong capital, he was still a man with extraordinary willpower.
But at this moment, he faintly felt that he couldn't resist.
A soft, boneless little hand suddenly climbed up his neck. It was Bai Lu who had leaned over at some point, nestling her head against his chest. Her other hand was wrapped around his neck, and her fishtail was entwined around him, rubbing against him restlessly. The scales on her fishtail seemed to have a life of their own, gently trembling.
Lu Ye's nose was filled with a delicate fragrance, and Bai Lu's hair tickled his face, nose, and heart …
He suddenly raised his hand, and with his fingers like a knife, he fiercely chopped Bai Lu's slender neck.
Bai Lu seemed to have been struck by lightning, and her gentle singing disappeared. Dizzily, she raised her head to look at Lu Ye, and then fell asleep on him.
With a bang, the door was knocked open, and a slender figure instantly rushed in. It was the Great Elder of the Merfolk Clan, Yan Miao! Looking up, she was dumbfounded for a moment, because the scene in front of her was completely different from what she had expected.
Lu Ye was still sitting in front of the table. He grabbed the wine cup in front of him and slowly took a sip, staring coldly at Yan Miao who had barged in.
Yan Miao was clearly a Yue Yao, but under the gaze of Lu Ye, who was a constellation, Yan Miao inexplicably felt a little nervous. She secretly thought that she really couldn't do anything against her conscience. She hurriedly said, "Young friend, my clan has no ill intentions towards you!"
"I know!" Lu Ye put down the wine cup.
Although he didn't know why the Merfolk Clan was doing this, he could still sense whether or not they had any ill intentions. If he hadn't resisted just now, the one who would have suffered a loss wouldn't have been him.
Back in Fangcun Mountain of the Dwarf Clan, he really couldn't resist Su Yuqing. After all, she was a sunshine, and she could do whatever she wanted with him.
But here, as long as he could maintain a trace of clarity, he wouldn't let her have her way.
It was very likely that the Merfolk Clan was doing this to win him over, but the price they had to pay was a little high. As for why they wanted to win him over, Lu Ye guessed that it was related to some of the abilities he had displayed before, or perhaps there were other reasons he didn't know.
Miao Yan opened her mouth, as if wanting to explain something, but in the end, she sighed and said, "Sorry!"
In the end, the Merfolk Clan had done something wrong, and they had to admit their mistakes. But then again, it was rare for them to be able to maintain their rationality under Bai Lu's singing.
Miao Yan originally persuaded Bai Lu to use this method to deal with Lu Ye, so she felt a little guilty towards Bai Lu, but now it seemed that Bai Lu had missed something.
She stepped forward and carried the unconscious Bai Lu over from Lu Ye. Then, she turned around and walked towards the door.
Lu Ye's voice came from behind her, "Arrange the transaction as soon as possible."
"I'll be right there!" Miao Yan paused for a moment and said, then quickly left.
After leaving the guest room, Miao Yan didn't walk far before sighing, "I've made you suffer."
Bai Lu, who was in her arms and should have been unconscious, slowly opened her eyes and slowly shook her head, her face red. She didn't suffer, but it was a little embarrassing.
For better or worse, she was a late-stage Constellation Realm cultivator and a member of the Merfolk Clan, so how could she be so easily knocked out by Lu Ye's palm strike? She just reacted quickly and pretended to be unconscious.
Lu Ye actually felt it too, but since she was pretending to be unconscious to avoid embarrassment, she couldn't expose her. That would really be awkward.
Miao Yan put Bai Lu down and said, "Go back and rest. "Mm." Bai Lu nodded and quickly left.
Miao Yan sighed softly as she watched her leave.
This method didn't work, which was both a good and bad thing. However, Miao Yan wasn't in a hurry. Since Li Taibai had come to the temple, it wouldn't be easy for him to leave. There would be plenty of opportunities in the future, so she wasn't in a hurry. Moreover, in this Wanxiang Sea, the only intelligent race he could come into contact with was the Merfolk Clan, so no matter what, he was set on becoming the son-in-law of the Merfolk Clan.
