61: Rescuing the stranded whale

"Little Fu, don't move, I'm braiding your hair." Nan Zhisui played with Little Fu's hair. Little Fu obediently let Nan Zhisui braid her hair. After it was done, the Little fellow dove into Nan Zhisui's arms.

"Mother, Mother, I like it~"

Nan Zhisui smiled and caught the Little fellow in her arms.

Little Fu was innocent and cute, which made her really like her.

Lan Xing swam over. He pitifully reached out to Little Fu, "Little Fu, come to Father's arms."

The Little fellow continued to hide in Nan Zhisui's arms. "Father is bad, Father is very bad."

Father wanted to separate from Mother, Father is bad!

Lan Xing: "..."

He had raised her for five years, yet it couldn't compare to Nan Zhisui's one or two days?

What kind of logic is this?!

He couldn't possibly let Nan Zhisui take Little Fu away after she severed their partnership.

Then he...

The female master and the cubs would both not want him.

He would really be completely abandoned.

Completely all alone.

Lan Xing's heart was suddenly filled with a sense of desolation, and tears welled up in his eyes.

Nan Zhisui had something she was very concerned about.

Nan Zhisui hugged Little Fu and asked Lan Xing, "Lan Xing, I want to ask you something."

"What is it?" He turned his head to wipe away his tears.

Nan Zhisui saw two small pearls fall into the seawater and looked up at him again.

He's crying...

The little fish brother's heart is very fragile.

She can't keep hurting him.

"Lan Xing, I saw Little Fu at Stone Village on land. Stone Village is already very far from the sea. I don't know why Little Fu would go to such a place. Do you have any clues about this?"

"Stone Village?" Lan Xing was also a bit surprised. "Stone Village is indeed very far. Even for Land Beastmen, it normally takes a few days to walk there. How could Little Fu go to such a far place?"

Nan Zhisui lowered her head to ask Little Fu.

Little Fu raised her head hazily, seemingly thinking hard. After a long while, she spread her arms and said, "emmm... fishy, bad fishy."

"Who is the bad fishy?"

Little Fu tried hard to think, and finally shook her head cutely. "Fu Fu doesn't know..."

Lan Xing also furrowed his brows slightly.

Merfolk give birth to many offspring, sometimes hundreds or even thousands at once.

But his family was different. His female master, Nan Zhisui, only gave birth to one in a litter.

So without a doubt, Little Fu was the treasure of his heart and the apple of his eye, a treasure he had raised with great effort.

He could not allow any fish to hurt her!

But... the Merfolk Clan was naturally kind-hearted. Who would be the fish to do such a thing?

"I will investigate!" Lan Xing said seriously.

As they were talking, a Male Merfolk dressed very plainly swam over.

Merfolk like shiny things and always decorate themselves with sparkling shells or pearls.

But this Male didn't have a single shiny thing on him.

A very low-key fish.

"Your Highness Lan Xing!" This Male Merfolk swam towards Lan Xing.

"Yu Chen!" Lan Xing became visibly cheerful. "Aren't you taking care of Qing and the others? Why are you here?"

Nan Zhisui curiously examined the Male Merfolk in front of her. He was thin and young, looking about the same age as Lan Xing, with a brown fish tail, wheat-colored skin, and a simple and kind appearance.

Yu Chen said apologetically, "Your Highness, something happened. Qing is stranded."

"What?" Lan Xing was a bit anxious. "Where is it stranded?"

"In the colored reef area."

Lan Xing immediately said, "Gather the Merfolk, follow me to save it."

Nan Zhisui was a bit confused listening to this. Lan Xing was gathering the Merfolk in front, while Yu Chen smiled and explained to Nan Zhisui behind them.

"You must be the Princess Consort. Your beauty is truly unparalleled."

Nan Zhisui: "Thank you. By the way, what is this Qing you mentioned?"

"Princess Consort, Qing is a Whale, one of the Whales that the Merfolk Clan in our area protects."

"Whale?" Nan Zhisui was very curious. "Do Merfolk also need to protect Whales?"

Yu Chen smiled and said, "Yes, this is our job."

Nan Zhisui was extremely curious, and since she couldn't leave Lan Xing more than 50 meters away, she simply followed Lan Xing and the others to watch the excitement.

A large group of Merfolk swam in front, while Nan Zhisui held Little Fu's hand and swam behind. Finally, they arrived at the colored reef area. Nan Zhisui saw more than a dozen Whales anxiously circling a stranded Whale and wailing.

Many Merfolk dispersed to comfort the Whales.

Nan Zhisui didn't recognize most of the Merfolk here. She looked at the five Merfolk she had chatted with today, and then looked at Yu Chen.

Among these Merfolk, could there be the bad Merfolk who hurt Little Fu?

Nan Zhisui held this question in her heart and went with Yu Chen to the side of an anxious Whale.

"Princess Consort, Whale Qing has Your Highness the Prince to rescue it, we just need to wait here."

Nan Zhisui asked Yu Chen, "Such a big Whale, how is Lan Xing going to save it?"

Yu Chen smiled with curved eyes and said, "Your Highness, just watch."

Many Merfolk were watching and cheering.

"Your Highness, Prince, go for it!"

Lan Xing waved his hand, and several water spouts swirled up in the water. These water spouts gently carried the large Whale, dragging it bit by bit toward the open sea.

This ability was similar to the water column Little Fu had formed above the cliff to create a parabola, pushing them down from the water column.

It was a very powerful Supernatural Ability for controlling water.

Yu Chen said, "This is our Prince's Supernatural Ability. The Prince has an Ancient Bloodline, and the awakened Supernatural Ability is also an Ancient-level Supernatural Ability — Ocean King Tide. It's very powerful."

The massive Whale was stranded on the shallows; the blue-purple Merfolk was very small compared to it.

However, Lan Xing's arrival calmed the Whale down. The two seemed to communicate in low voices for a while, and then Lan Xing repeatedly used his ability to drag the Whale off the shallows.

Many other Male Merfolk were searching for leverage points near the Whale to help.

The scene before her eyes was too magnificent and spectacular; Nan Zhisui watched, somewhat mesmerized.

This was the job of the Merfolk, this was Lan Xing's job.

Yu Chen curiously asked Nan Zhisui, "Princess Consort, a Merfolk as beautiful as you should be quite famous in the sea. Why haven't I heard of you before? May I ask which area your Fish Father and Fish Mother are from?"

Checking my background?

Nan Zhisui spoke nonsense with a straight face: "I have no father or mother, I am a lonely fish."

"A lonely fish?" Yu Chen was a bit surprised and looked her up and down.

Nan Zhisui nodded. "Yes."

When Little Fu heard Mother say she was a lonely fish, the Little Cub felt extremely distressed. The soft Little Cub hugged Nan Zhisui.

Female cubs are so considerate.

Nan Zhisui hugged Little Fu and rubbed her head. "Mother is fine."

"Mm, okay."

In the distance, another group of fish swam over. Yu Chen smiled again and said, "Princess Consort, look, Princess Chu Chen, Prince Luo Chuan, and Prince Mu Yang have all come to help!"

A beautiful Female Merfolk with dawn-colored scales, a crimson red Merfolk, and a cyan-yellow Merfolk swam over from the distance.

After greeting Lan Xing, they swam to the sides of the Whale, Qing.

The pod of Whales called out in unison and sprayed water, seemingly expressing gratitude.

Then, the four noble royal Merfolk used their water-type Supernatural Abilities together. Four royal Merfolk simultaneously used their Ancient-level Supernatural Abilities.

The huge waves successfully brought the Whale, Qing, from the shallows into the open sea!

The Merfolk pod was excited and boiling with joy.

"Long live Princess Chu Chen, long live Prince Lan Xing, Prince Luo Chuan, Prince Mu Yang!"

The Whales even surfaced from the sea to spray water in response.

Seeing this scene, Nan Zhisui felt very moved.

Yu Chen swam beautifully in front of Nan Zhisui and smiled, "Princess Consort, the Whales of the East Sea are all here. Now we can start cleaning the Whales."
