“Well gorgeous,” Chu Cheng said through a grin “How about I show you what a real e”
Tan Lingyun was considering how to respond when suddenly she felt a scorching heat at her shoulder Before she could say anything, a burst of thunderous laughter filled the arena
“Ah ha ha ha ha!” The sonorous laughter was so loud it even drowned out Poseidon’s pleasant ht that appeared at the fore of the auditorium
The sudden and un-telegraphed change was shocking Even the school leaders were unable to resist the draw of the show, and nearly juan
The swirling light looked infinitely hot, and flared angrily As it did so, the crystalline figures suspended on high twinkled crima
Poseidon’s face betrayed shock The myriad fish that surrounded him fled in trepidation to his rear, desperate for shelter The little mermaid followed suit
“The king’s subjects were hing subsided and the background music swelled as the voice narrated It seemed constrained, devoid of it’s former carefree warmth
Slowly the audience ca pillar was part of the act
Tan Lingyun was perhaps more surprised than most She turned her head to look for thebefore the stage She couldn’t see hiht, but she kneas hiiven flesh
Althened until it filled every ear, deal tone, his voice Majestic and co, and yet there was a note of condeentleness in his voice when he’d sung with the esticulated and cried, entreating the entire ocean to rise in protest against this invading evil Ripples of light appeared throughout the auditorium in response to Poseidon’s calls Compared to their lazy appearance before, this tior
The living flaainst it, the fiery figure raged It swelled from the human size it once was to a dozen ed, heating up as the fires rose to alht note that the fires weren’t causing any dae to the auditorium
The fiery behe, like it’s underwater nerowl that called out It met and mixed with the powerful notes of Poseidon’s call, a cacophonous battle of sound The crystal figures and glass walls of the aquariu fiery and the blue of the ocean Everything was drawn in to the epic struggle for the soul of the ocean
They lights clashed, crashed in to one another They flashed and flooded the arena fro A sorrowful note invaded the heated ed
In the iant rose fro a raging lance of fire that raced
“Booooh the arena, shaking the entire structure and filling the audience’s ears with the unsettling sound Those in the back assu was from the speakers, but those in front knew better To their shock and aonist had actually rammed directly in to the crystal wall of the aquarium!
Poseidon’s cries were righteous, piercing A sapphire blue light had begun to exude from him, prosperous and powerful as it filled the under water realm he inhabited The intensity in his voice, and the dissonance of the blasts against the background
“Booainst the crystal wall This ti before the the wall’s surface Under the audience’s frightened gaze, the cracks spread quickly in all directions They crackled threateningly until it spread across the whole of the aquarium wall
Cries of alar voice called out to them “Do not fear, my subjects! This evil shall never know victory I am your protector, and I shall defend you in the face of this threat!”
“Bang!” he giant of fire struck the glass a third time, in defiance of Poseidon’s claims The crystal fractured under the stress, and shattered in to a hundred million pieces The water once contained within rushed out like a terrifying tsunah to drown out the startled screams of the audience
“Ahhh—!” Before anyone could olden hoop fixed them in place There was no escape as the wave barreled toward them
Zhou Qianlin’s gasp of fear and surprise joined the rest of the crowd She unconsciously scotched closer to Lan Jue, and wrapped her arms around his
“Eh?” Tan Lingyun, seated in the front roas si A flash of power flared in her eyes The leather of her seat cracked as he pressed her hands against it Under the force of her pressure, the golden harness that kept her still broke free Her hands shot skyward, inciting dual bea to life It surrounded and enveloped her like a shi+eld as she prepared to parry the force of the encroaching wave
“Sit down, cut it out!” A voice light with huht fell over her Tan Lingyun felt no heat, but the oppressive force of the light pressed her back in to her seat
She was not the only rebel In fact there wereenough to break the harness as she did But like the Savage Goddess, the ht pushed them back down
The fiery power that filled the auditoriue It roared as the fla power collided with the wave Red and blue, fire and water The colors becaainst one another
Much to the relief of frightened onlookers, none of the resulting wave ainst their bodies was the conflicting red and blue lights
“Unreal,” Lan Juearound with A-Li for so long He’s also in the show And this fairyland they’ve created, that must be Mo Xiao Flawlessly executed, perfect cooperation”
