Chapter 579 - 377: King of the Mermaids
"Let’s go!"
When they arrived at the riverbank, Lin Lang leapt and dove into the water, sinking down.
Seeing this, Sunlight Qianyu couldn’t help but furrow his brow slightly.
But he still followed obediently.
...
"This woman lives underwater; could she not be from the Human Race?"
While flying underwater, Sunlight Qianyu asked Lin Lang.
Lin Lang said:
"More or less. She’s from the Merfolk Race."
Only one word makes a difference.
Upon hearing this, Sunlight Qianyu nodded slightly:
"In the mythological era, the Merfolk Race was also a very powerful race..."
Lin Lang casually asked:
"Which race was the most powerful in the mythological era?"
Sunlight Qianyu replied without hesitation:
"Naturally, it was the Human Race."
Lin Lang nodded, not surprised—
Humans are called the leaders of all creatures, seemingly born more suited for cultivation!
Even the Demon Race, if they want to embark on the path of cultivation, their first step is to take human form!
The more similar a race is to humans—like monkeys or mermaids—the stronger it naturally is!
Thinking of it this way, humans truly are Heavenly Dao’s favored!
Born to be a step ahead of other races!
...
The underwater world was magnificent and mysterious.
Seventy percent of Earth’s surface is covered by water!
Yet, human exploration of the underwater world is not extensive; only about five percent!
Which means—
There are still many creatures under the sea that humans haven’t discovered!
If not for the end times arriving.
Lin Lang probably wouldn’t have thought in his lifetime—
That the legendary mermaids actually exist!
And that he would end up having a romance with one of them!
"I’ve tried swimming in the water and running on the ground... now all that’s left is flying in the sky!"
Lin Lang thought—
Of course,
the ones flying in the sky aren’t necessarily birds!
For instance, angels in Western mythology can fly too!
Previously, when people described beauties with alluring bodies, they would say, "angelic appearance, devilish body"?
Lin Lang truly wanted to see what an angel’s appearance looked like!
Of course!
When that time comes, the devilish body is not to be missed either!
...
Before long,
Lin Lang and Sunlight Qianyu arrived at the Merfolk Race’s world—
A massive, lavish palace!
Unlike other dim and dark places, this palace was brightly lit with pearl decorations, resembling a fairyland!
Lin Lang walked towards the palace gate.
The two Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals guarding the gate stopped him, looking cautious:
"Human? What are you doing here?"
They didn’t recognize him?
Indeed!
Last time, he just followed Princess Zhi Xi once; it’s not like everyone would remember him immediately!
Furthermore, the memory of fish and shrimp isn’t great!
Lin Lang was about to reveal his identity!
At this moment!
A small, but slightly familiar voice came from deep within the palace:
"Prince Lin Lang! Prince Lin Lang! You’ve come!"
Lin Lang looked up.
He saw a creature shaped somewhat like a small dog, swimming out from the palace!
Lin Lang immediately remembered—
It’s the Little River Otter!
The Little River Otter swam over, happily circling around Lin Lang, begging for a pat!
Lin Lang smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to rub its head, and then said:
"Little one, how did you know I was coming?"
The Little River Otter acted coyly:
"I dreamt of you last night!"
"Oh?" Lin Lang was curious, "What did you dream about me?"
The Little River Otter said:
"I dreamt you were bullying me! Humph!"
Lin Lang laughed heartily.
Then the Little River Otter said to the gatekeeping Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals:
"How dare you stop him? This is Prince Lin Lang, Princess Zhi Xi’s husband!"
The Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals were startled!
Though they couldn’t quite remember Lin Lang’s appearance, the name was one they remembered clearly!
They hurriedly said:
"Apologies for my oversight, please forgive me, Prince Lin Lang!"
Lin Lang naturally wouldn’t blame them, so he waved his hand and entered directly.
...
The Little River Otter stayed close by his side.
Suddenly noticing Sunlight Qianyu following not far behind, it whispered to Lin Lang:
"Oh? Prince Lin Lang, why did you bring someone else too? Who is this woman?"
Lin Lang smiled:
"I advise you not to ask too much! She is someone you cannot afford to provoke!"
"Ah!"
The Little River Otter hastily covered its mouth in fright!
It always trusted Lin Lang’s words completely!
Since Prince Lin Lang said it wasn’t provokable, then it definitely wasn’t!
