C290 (1/2)

Since he had come into contact with the subjugating true spirit, Du Lei had believed more in his sixth sense than ever before. If it wasn't because this matter was too important to the recovery of the subjugating true spirit, Du Lei really wanted to bring Zhao Linger back to the continent, so as to avoid getting too deep into the muddy water. anyway, if he could successfully subdue the Mermaid, then the powerful fighting strength and wealth of the Mermaid would not only be able to further enrich his own wealth, it would also be able to quickly alleviate the awkward situation of no one working under him.

In short, risk and gain are always proportional.

Just like this, Du Lei followed Jia Luo and Jia Ren, feeling apprehensive as they advanced quickly towards the Mermaid's ancestral grounds. Along the way, Jia Luo and Jia Ren would occasionally explain to Zhao Lei about the chaotic situation the tribe was in after the death of the chief of tribe.

It was obvious that among the five elders, only Taichu Deyun and Tai Chuzhize had the power and ambition to become the chief of tribe. However, it was unknown if it was because the Queen's attitude was unclear or because the difference in strength between the two sides was not too great, neither side was able to defeat the other.

Mermaid had survived without a king for thousands of years.

This was the first time Du Lei had come to such a deep seabed. Even though the scenery along the way was pretty good, and he would occasionally strangle a few strange fish who were frightened by the presence of a tyrant, for Du Lei who was fully focused on settling the matters of the Mermaid, these things were all completely ignored. For a foreign human who wanted to meddle in the affairs of the Mermaid, other than making good use of Zhao Linger's bloodline and subjugating true spirit, it seemed like there was a need to continuously pull one over and bring one down.

”We'll be there soon after we pass this canyon!”

Jia Luo turned and said to Du Lei.

”If anything changes while you wait, you have to protect her well. You can't let him get hurt, and you can't let her get out of my sight.”

With that, Du Lei patted Zhao Linger's head and said slowly as she moved forward.

”Please rest assured Lord Regent, it was not easy for a bloodline to appear in Mermaid and end this chaotic situation. We will definitely protect her well.”

Jia Luo Jia Ren looked at Du Lei and said resolutely.

”I hope everything will go smoothly.”

Just like this, in Du Lei's opinion, a group of people walked out of the canyon.

Once he walked out of the valley, Du Lei clearly felt something shining in front of him, only to see a ball of light in the distance.

A few wide underwater roads extended from a built-up area. On both sides of the road were countless giant clams, each holding a shining pearl in its beak.

He really wished he could take all of these Night Pearls and put them into his storage. After calculating how much money he would have to spend, most importantly, with these things, he would be able to shine no matter where he went, and he would also be completely green and free from pollution. If he put these things in his little villa, he would definitely be able to suck in He Ruyue's and Zhao Xue's eyeballs.

If that was the case, he would probably be chased around the world by the Mermaid. Thinking about the fact that they had the strength of over a few million people, Du Lei started to sweat profusely. Forget about it, he decided to settle some Elders Guild or Queen stuff first.

”Regent, that's the ancestral land of our tribe. There's the palace, there's the hall of elders.”

Jia Luo and Jia Ren definitely didn't know the dirty thoughts in Zhao Lei's mind earlier as they still explained the distribution of the tribes to him with all their might. Otherwise, they would definitely regret bringing him to the Ancestral Land.

”Is your electric light, oh, no, is that glowing bead always so bright?”

Zhao Lei pointed at the beads in the huge clams in a daze as he asked.
