Chapter 425 - Merfolk’s Tears (2/2)

Bluepool exhaled. “I’ll go right away. Jean, what dish do you want to eat?”

“Anything,” Bai Qingqing said. Although she could see, she could tell from their conversation that she’d be alone with King later.

This King gave her a cold-blooded feeling, just like how Curtis was back then. She felt a little scared.

“Anything will do. Just be quick,” Bai Qingqing then added.

“En,” Bluepool replied, and then swam off excitedly.

It became even quieter, and Bai Qingqing swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Even the sound of her swallowing sounded abrupt.

Not long later, a stretch of brightness appeared before her eyes. Bai Qingqing leaned against the bubble and blinked, then slowly saw that it was a cave.

“This will be where you’ll be staying from now on.”

There was no water in the cave, and many luminous pearls were embedded on the walls, filling the place with soft light rays.

King pushed the bubble Bai Qingqing was encased in toward the cave. The two layers of a thin film wouldn’t merge together, so he placed them tightly together without any gaps, then said to her, “Go in.”

Bai Qingqing pouted, then carried her children as she entered.

King must have used some kind of ability. The bubble that Bai Qingqing hadn’t been able to get out of suddenly became soft like dough, and she managed to get out with a simple attempt.

As she didn’t have any prior experience, she fell out, head first.

She was in so much pain that she gasped. Before she checked herself for injuries, she checked her children first.

“Meow—”

The cubs looked at Bai Qingqing and cried out softly, seemingly uninjured. Only then did Bai Qingqing rub her forehead. Even her shoulders were hurting a little from the impact.

King walked in as well, looking at her with a gaze as if he was looking at an object.
