122: Chapter 122 Attack on the Tiger Shark Tribe
In response, Tao Yao gave an indifferent look; whether this Female Merfolk lived or died had nothing to do with her, as she wasn't that kind-hearted.
In the cultivation world, the biggest taboo is meddling in others' business; if one accidentally offends an existence they can't afford to provoke, they might even get themselves dragged down.
If Ning Yuan insisted on saving the Female Merfolk, Tao Yao wouldn't say much; anyway, with her around, it was impossible for anything to happen to Ning Yuan!
Seeing Tao Yao's attitude, Ning Yuan wasn't surprised at all, because this was the choice most people would make. However, looking at the Female Merfolk before him, Ning Yuan couldn't remain indifferent.
After all, this Female Merfolk was quite beautiful, and it would be a pity to miss out... Bah, it should be that a life was about to pass away, which was quite regrettable.
So Ning Yuan decided to save her life, to rescue this poor soul!
He was truly great; Ning Yuan was almost moved to tears by his own actions, and 'tears' of emotion couldn't help but flow from the corner of his mouth.
If Tao Yao knew what Ning Yuan was thinking, she would definitely scold him again: 'You're just lusting after her body, how despicable!'
Ning Yuan's gaze quietly sized up the merfolk; unlike the half-human, half-fish beings he had imagined, this Female Merfolk's appearance was extremely similar to the Human Race.
Her light blue hair cascaded down to her waist like a waterfall. Her high chest was tightly wrapped in an unknown beast skin. Her belly was flat, and her skin was so supple it seemed like water could be squeezed out with a pinch. Below, she wore a short beast skin skirt that perfectly showcased her fair and slender long legs.
Although her appearance wasn't world-shakingly beautiful, her features were delicate and exquisite. More importantly, there was a small patch of colorful scales at the corner of her eyes, which added a touch of exotic beauty.
Due to her injuries, her face was slightly pale. Coupled with her tearful appearance, she exuded a sense of fragility that made one want to hold her in their arms and protect her.
Having made his decision, Ning Yuan naturally couldn't let her continue kowtowing. He stepped forward a few paces, helped her up, and said softly:
"I didn't say I was going to do anything to you, so why act like this?"
The moment she was touched, the Female Merfolk's delicate body couldn't help but tremble. Then, she was helped up, her gaze timidly fixed on Ning Yuan, still sobbing and wiping away tears, looking extremely pitiful.
"Tell me properly, what exactly happened? If the situation allows, it's not impossible for me to help you get revenge!" At this point, Ning Yuan paused slightly, his eyes narrowing as he lustfully sized up her alluring body:
"However, it won't be without a price... Do you understand what I mean?"
Hearing the man's words and seeing that look in his eyes, the Female Merfolk immediately understood. He wanted her to... After a moment of hesitation, she made a decision in her heart. If she relied on herself, she might never be able to get revenge in this lifetime, but with this person's help, she might be able to avenge her grievances.
The Female Merfolk knelt and kowtowed again, her gaze resolute as she said, "I beg Senior to help me get revenge. Yu Yingying is willing to pay any price!"
"Mhm! Good, you're sensible! Tell me about the situation." Seeing how cooperative she was, Ning Yuan nodded with satisfaction and spoke calmly.
Seeing this, Tao Yao curled her lip. This bastard must have taken a liking to her, otherwise why go this far?
But it didn't matter; she was already used to it, and one more wouldn't make a difference!
Yu Yingying hurriedly spoke up, "It's like this..."
The story was quite simple. Yu Yingying's Merfolk Tribe and the Tiger Shark Tribe lived in the same area, so conflicts over survival and resources were inevitable.
Originally, both sides were evenly matched. But unexpectedly, the leader of the Tiger Shark Tribe was the first to achieve a Breakthrough to Soul Transformation. With his strength greatly increased, he naturally wanted to expand his territory, so the Merfolk Tribe was unsurprisingly wiped out.
Yu Yingying only found an opportunity to escape the tribe through the desperate struggle of her father and mother, though she couldn't avoid being hunted.
That was roughly what happened!
After listening, Ning Yuan felt confident. Just a Soul Transformation stage, no big deal. He didn't even need Tao Yao to act; Du Jiaojiao could handle it!
Then, Ning Yuan asked again, "Have you really decided?"
"I've decided!" Yu Yingying looked at Ning Yuan with a resolute gaze. If she didn't avenge such a great hatred, how could she face her parents and her clansmen?
Besides, she had seen Ning Yuan's strength. If he said he would help her get revenge, then there would definitely be no problem!
Ning Yuan expressed his appreciation; a good child who was willing to sacrifice herself to avenge her parents.
However, appreciation was one thing, but necessary measures were still indispensable. Ning Yuan then condensed a Demon Seed and, under Yu Yingying's determined gaze, planted it in her!
After succeeding, Ning Yuan sensed for a moment and found that Yu Yingying hadn't lied; things were indeed as she had said.
Since that was the case, Ning Yuan was also a man of his word. Having promised to help Yu Yingying get revenge, he naturally wouldn't go back on it.
Without further ado, led by Yu Yingying, the two of them made their way to the Tiger Shark Tribe's location.
A certain canyon on the seabed.
This was where the Tiger Shark Tribe lived. At the mouth of the canyon, many Tiger Sharks were swimming around, patrolling and on alert.
After wiping out the Merfolk Tribe, everything within a thousand miles was Tiger Shark territory. So even though there were Tiger Sharks on alert, they were just going through the motions and were extremely lax!
Seeing this, Ning Yuan couldn't help but shake his head and laugh. Wasn't this a perfect opportunity delivered to his door? He might not even need much effort to deal with the Tiger Shark Tribe.
Swish!
With a wave of Ning Yuan's hand, several figures suddenly appeared beside him. It was Nangong Xi and the others; except for Zhou Lengdie, The women all appeared here without exception.
This time, Ning Yuan didn't plan to act himself. He would let them handle the Tiger Sharks themselves, taking the opportunity to test their strength.
Ever since their cultivation had achieved a Breakthrough, they had been in a state of 'bitter cultivation' and hadn't fought anyone yet. This was a good opportunity.
"Go! Be careful, especially you, Little Yezi. You've just reached the Golden Core stage, so don't charge in too recklessly!" Ning Yuan glanced at The women and then instructed Little Yezi.
Little Yezi nodded and said seriously, "Don't worry, Brother, I'll be careful!"
"Quick, quick, quick! Stop nagging. I haven't fought the Sea Race yet; I'm going to have my fill this time!" Mu Qingyao took out her newly forged Natal Sword, 'Yaoyuan', and said impatiently. She then looked at Du Jiaojiao:
"Jiaojiao, Soul Transformation is all yours!"
"No problem!" Du Jiaojiao patted her chest and guaranteed. He had just reached Soul Transformation; he definitely wouldn't be able to beat her.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!" After saying that, Mu Qingyao dashed toward the canyon like a whirlwind, her cultivation circulating to the limit, her whole body emitting a sharp Sword Intent.
Seeing this, the other women smiled and then followed suit, turning into streaks of light as they launched an attack on the canyon.
