Chapter 828 - Unforeseen Occurrence (2) (1/2)

Walking out of the wooden house, Bai Qingqing noticed a lake the size of a golf course. Its color was abnormally green and emitted an ominous deathly vibe.

The place she was at was a small island in the center of a lake. The environment on the island was tranquil. There was also a wisp of smoke at the side, adding a hint of vitality to the place.

The ominous feeling of the lake and the tranquility of the island formed a sharp comparison.

Suddenly, many heads popped up from the water. It wasn’t hard to identify them from their perfect appearances that they were all merfolk.

“You brought me to the merfolk tribe?” Bai Qingqing backed off one step and bumped into the little snake behind her. She turned and threw him a glance of disbelief.

“They won’t harm you,” the little snake said confidently.

The merfolk swam to the shores. As they got closer, Bai Qingqing realized that the abnormal color of the water seemed to dissipate like how mosquito-repellent incense repelled flies. They returned to the transparent color that clear water should have.

Upon a careful look, she noticed that the water’s abnormal dark green color came from root-shaped aquatic plants that had sharp thorns. She even saw a half-rotting dead fish with its corpse covered in wounds.

However, when the merfolk got close, the roots scattered off by themselves.

Thereafter, a group of human-shaped merfolk walked out from the island, with the petite Jean in the lead. Her mates were behind her.

There was the merfolks’ leader, King, and four elders.

They were all four-striped beastmen. Bai Qingqing estimated the battle prowess of both sides. Would Curtis be able to take on four four-striped beastmen single-handedly?

It was a pity that Winston wasn’t around.

“Long time no see.” Jean walked up to Bai Qingqing and said arrogantly.

Jean still looked beautiful, her face being at the youngest state of when she was 17 or 18 years old. Her curly blue hair was beautiful like that of a doll.

However, after having gotten used to Bluepool’s hair that was even more beautiful, Bai Qingqing wouldn’t be amazed anymore by Jean’s amazing hair.

Bai Qingqing remained calm and smiled, saying, “It has been a long time.”
