67: Of course, you have to dip seafood in wasabi!
Nan Zhisui was covered in Diatomaceous Earth from head to toe, even her face was coated in it.
She was also wearing a beautiful outfit made of shells and Shark-silk that Chu Chen had insisted she change into.
The whole look was both beautiful and strange.
Nan Zhisui said to Lan Xing, "Lan Xing, Lan Xing, look at me, look at me. Am I hideously ugly?"
The three-hundred-year-old Male fish's face suddenly turned red, and he spoke hesitantly.
"No... not ugly... it's... quite pretty..."
Nan Zhisui: "..."
How could I be so ugly that it made him stutter?
"Lan Xing, it seems your previous palace is no longer habitable," Nan Zhisui asked. "Where are we going next?"
Lan Xing was still stuttering, "It's... it's okay, I... I have several... palaces."
!
Wow, did her fish-husband actually own so much real estate?
The area after the volcanic eruption was definitely uninhabitable.
Lan Xing migrated with Nan Zhisui, Little Fu, and his subjects.
The migration of Lan Xing's Merfolk Clan took two days; during this time, he also communicated with the Whales under his jurisdiction.
The Whales were actually migrating along with Lan Xing.
So, wherever the merfolk were, the Whales were too. Was that it?
Nan Zhisui found it very interesting and was also shocked by the close connection between the Merfolk Clan and the Whale Clan.
As she swam, she looked back at the Whales.
The Whales liked her very much and would even perform by spouting water for her.
Lan Xing swam over and asked Nan Zhisui, "Sister, do you like Whales?"
Nan Zhisui nodded vigorously, "I do!"
Before she transmigrated, although she was a Veterinarian who had never treated a Whale.
She had seen the movie "Big Fish," heard the song "Deep Sea" by Phoenix Legend, and read many different stories about Whales.
She had liked Whales for a long time.
Besides, rumor had it that Whales liked humans, thinking they were cute and having a good impression of them.
When the Whales looked at her now, their eyes were smiling; perhaps they were all thinking she was a "merfolk sweetie."
She naturally liked such large animals that were so fond of humans even more.
During the migration, Lan Xing's gaze would constantly steal glances at Nan Zhisui.
He couldn't help but recall when they were trapped, how she had cupped his face, leaned in, and left a kiss.
Those lips... were incredibly soft.
The Male Merman's face turned red again.
If there weren't so many merfolk around, he really would have wanted to roll around shamelessly.
After migrating for two days, the Merfolk Clan finally saw a massive Crystal Palace!
—
Dark red Shark-silk wrapped the Male Merman completely, making it impossible for the beastmen to recognize his face.
The merman emerged from the sea; after his fishtail turned into legs, he put on a Land Beastmen's beast skin skirt.
The merman, who rarely walked on land, moved slowly. He crossed the beach and headed toward the forest, finally meeting the Lizard Beastman and other Wandering Beastmen by the river.
Walking on land for a long time eventually caused discomfort.
The merman walked to the riverbank and poured river water over himself.
His voice was cold, "I handed the Mermaid Princess over to you. She is only five years old, a Female cub. How could you let her escape? Are Wandering Beastmen really this incompetent? Not a single one of Xuan Jin's subordinates is capable."
The Lizard Beastman's eyes narrowed dangerously, "Yu Chen, if you just want to pick a fight with me, feel free. But if you want to drag our Lord Xuan Jin into this, you're not worthy."
The Lizard Beastman hissed and flicked his tongue, "Besides, before you handed the Little Merman to us, you didn't inform us that she possessed a Supernatural Ability. So, this isn't really our mistake."
Yu Chen's eyes constricted sharply.
Lan Xing's Bloodline was so dominant that Little Fu, at only five years old, had already awakened a Supernatural Ability?
If she had awakened a Supernatural Ability, then her escape from a few unprepared Wandering Beastmen did indeed make sense.
The Lizard Beastman sized up the Male Merman before him, who was wrapped tightly without a single inch of skin showing.
Females of the Merfolk Clan were beautiful and very rare, and most merfolk were simple and kind.
Never before had a member of the Merfolk Clan personally sent out a Female like this.
This merman clearly had some personal grudge.
The Lizard Beastman suddenly laughed, "Looking at you, you're in quite a sorry state. Could it be that your misdeeds were discovered?"
"If you've become a wandering beastman like us, why not just join us? Lord Xuan Jin accepts all homeless, pitiful beastmen."
"No need." Yu Chen's dark eyes glared at the Lizard Beastman, "I will send the Mermaid Princess out again. You just be responsible for selling her as a Beast Slave."
With that, Yu Chen jumped into the river with a splash, transformed into his fish form, and swam away.
The Lizard Beastman's long tongue licked around the corners of his mouth.
Who would have thought that a seemingly harmless merman would have such a vicious mind as to sell a noble royal Mermaid Princess as a Beast Slave... Five years ago, after Lan Xing's coming-of-age ceremony went wrong and he returned to the sea from land, he changed from a lively and cheerful Merman Prince into a despondent, melancholy prince.
He moved from his beautiful Crystal Palace to the deserted edge of a volcano.
The merfolk who followed him had once been full of complaints. After all, the area around the palace was no longer beautiful, and obtaining food had become difficult.
They weren't as powerful as Prince Lan Xing. Who would want to swim for an hour just to see a fish every time they wanted to eat?
But a volcanic eruption had completely destroyed the originally desolate palace.
Now they were back at the Crystal Palace. The surrounding area was full of beautiful coral and small fish; a casual scoop would yield plenty of sea urchins.
If they wanted to eat seafood, small fish might even swim into their mouths if they just opened them.
The merfolk, having survived the disaster, were all overjoyed!
"Your Highness Princess Consort, what are you making now?" the beautiful merfolk asked Nan Zhisui.
After Nan Zhisui learned how to blow bubbles from the merfolk, she became very fond of doing it.
She would blow a few bubbles for fun whenever she had the chance.
At this moment, two bubbles floated in front of her.
The first bubble contained Seafood Sauce, and the second bubble contained Wasabi.
When Lan Xing had made Sashimi for her before, her mind had been too occupied, and she had actually forgotten to add seasoning!
To eat a raw seafood feast, one must definitely have the most classic seafood flavors!
"This is seasoning." Nan Zhisui tapped an oyster handed to her by a Little Merman, happily pried it open, dipped it in the Wasabi, and tossed it into her mouth. "It's delicious when eaten with seafood."
Mmm, this taste—it hits the head, it's intense!
Little Fu was very curious; she also grabbed a small fish, broke it in half, dipped it in Wasabi, and took a bite.
Intense!
It sent her spiraling to the heavens!
She even choked out two small pearls.
Nan Zhisui hurriedly collected the small golden pearls, then pulled Little Fu back and asked with a smile, "Is it good?"
Little Fu's large eyes were filled with tears. "Ma... Mama, it's attacking Fu Fu."
Nan Zhisui burst into laughter at Little Fu's reaction.
"Little Fu is too young; she shouldn't eat such pungent seasoning."
After hearing Little Fu's comment, the other merfolk were very curious, so they all took fish meat and dipped it into Nan Zhisui's Wasabi bubble.
Then, one by one, the merfolk performed a spectacle of shedding tears while spiraling to the heavens!
One Little Merman was responsible for collecting everyone's tear-pearls, putting them into a glass bottle, and handing them to Nan Zhisui.
In no time, Nan Zhisui had a large bottle of pearls!
