100: Little Dragon Girl enters the mansion

As soon as these words were spoken, the world was shocked.

An Integration Realm Sea Demon actually dared to demand human sacrifices from the Prefect of Haiya Prefecture, a top-tier powerhouse ranked in the world; could anything be more arrogant than this?

For a moment, the commoners of Haiya Prefecture were filled with righteous indignation, as the deep-seated blood feud between races that had lasted for tens of millions of years completely erupted.

"Kill it! Kill it!"

"Kill it! Kill it!"

"..."

The waves of sound, like mountain roars and sea tsunamis, almost overturned the vault of heaven.

Even with Mo You's Realm, her eyelids twitched in shock at the Aura gathered by these masses of sentient beings, and she couldn't help but take a step back.

She had actually been frightened by a group of Mortals?

In her shame and anger, her majestic Demonic Qi crushed down toward Haiya Prefecture as she sneered, "A bunch of ants actually dare to dream of mastering their own fates? All of you, shut your mouths! You have no right to be noisy here!"

This time, under the Sea Demon's firm and overbearing Aura, Su Jing unknowingly fell into a disadvantage.

In an instant, wails echoed throughout Haiya Prefecture.

Countless Mortals with weak cultivation were crushed into a kneeling position on the ground, severely injured, and some were even directly crushed into a bloody mist.

But even more Mortals did not yield. Facing the overwhelming pressure, they didn't know how many of their bones had broken or how many teeth they had ground to pieces, yet they were unwilling to lower their heads in submission.

"The Human Race is truly a terrifying race!" Mo You's pupils trembled as she remained silent.

Under the Laws of the ocean, big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat shrimp; the weak submitting to the strong was a matter of course, an instinct carved into their very marrow. No Sea Demon would find it improper.

In fact, more often than not, they would consider it an honor to attach themselves and submit to a powerful Sea Demon.

But the Human Race was different. Power could crush their bodies, but it could not enslave their Souls.

This was also why Sea Demons and the Dragon Clan could only treat humans as rations to be eaten, but could not pen them up like livestock.

Only at this moment did Su Jing finally snap back to her senses.

Seeing the tragic state of Haiya Prefecture, her beautiful eyes turned bloodshot. Her Origin Qi showed signs of going berserk at any moment, but she still suppressed her rage and did not strike. "Sea Demon, you've gone too far. Do you really think This King doesn't exist?"

"No, no, how could this little demon dare to show even a shred of disrespect to the Prefect!"

Mo You used both soft and hard tactics, lowering her posture and giving some Face. "I was merely giving these ants who don't know reverence a lesson. The strong must not be lightly insulted, wouldn't you say?"

Su Jing's teeth itched with hatred. She truly wanted to cut this Prodigy down with her sword regardless of the consequences, but she was no longer the wet-behind-the-ears, fearless youth of back then. Everything she did required careful consideration and weighing the pros and cons.

"This King will absolutely not hand over my female subjects as sacrifices!" Su Jing took a deep breath and feigned toughness. "Sea Demon, get out of Haiya Prefecture immediately. You are not welcome here!"

Mo You smiled slightly, having already anticipated Su Jing's reaction.

In fact, from the moment Su Jing chose not to act at the beginning, the situation was completely within her grasp.

She said unhurriedly, "Prefect, you must think this through. There are a hundred billion humans in Haiya Prefecture; a hundred thousand boys and girls are but a drop in the bucket. Why must you risk your own future and life for a few ants?"

"Besides, if you are unwilling to hand them over, my Master will come to take them himself. My Master has the right to initiate a Sea Demon Feast once!"

Sea Demon Feast?

Hearing this, Su Jing could no longer remain calm. Her hands, hidden behind her back, could not stop trembling.

In the history of the Mountain Sea Realm, there had been three Sea Demon Feasts in total.

It was a carnival for Sea Demons and a disaster for the Human Race.

Endless Sea Demons would swarm onto the land under the leadership of the Dragon Clan and begin to hunt humans wantonly. Behind every feast, trillions of people would become rations.

If a Sea Demon Feast were truly launched on the Fourth Mountain, the Human Race here would likely be wiped out.

And as the Prefect of Haiya Prefecture, she would be unable to escape the blame and would likely bear a monstrous infamy. If any Human Race powerhouses from the Immortal Realm were to investigate in the future, her hope of returning to the Immortal Realm in this life would probably turn into bubbles.

Seeing the woman in this state, Mo You showed a confident smile. She didn't want to push too hard and chose to turn and leave. "Prefect Su, you still have three days to consider. Three days later, I hope you can show my Master enough sincerity!"

"Wait!"

Su Jing reached out, wanting to stop her.

But that massive octopus Sea Demon had already turned into a streak of light and disappeared at the end of the horizon.

"Dammit, this is really too much!"

Su Jing's teeth ground together audibly, but she could only swallow her full belly of rage.

The commoners of Haiya Prefecture below still didn't know what had happened. They didn't understand the so-called "Sea Demon Feast"; they only saw that the Prefect they believed in had not struck to keep the Sea Demon there, but instead let it leave.

This scene cast a shadow of unease over the hearts of countless commoners... East Sea Dragon Palace.

Little Dragon Girl paced back and forth in the palace with her hands behind her back.

"What's going on? Second Sister and Su Sheng Nü haven't contacted This Princess for so long. Has something happened?"

The girl's pretty brows furrowed, her tone anxious.

"Could it be that Su Sheng Nü was just pretending that day and is actually dissatisfied with This Princess?"

At this thought, she couldn't help but look at the red string on her wrist. She could no longer hold back and transformed into a giant pink Dragon, swimming toward the sea surface.

Today was sunny and the weather was clear.

A gentle breeze blew over the vast blue sea; it was a rare fine day.

Little Dragon Girl transformed back into human form.

Today, she wore a light green floor-length dress common among the Human Race. A golden silk ribbon outlined her slender and tender waist. As she walked quickly, a pair of pinkish-red jade feet were faintly visible under the hem of her skirt.

"I have to go to the human world to take a look!"

If it were just Su Quan, she could still patiently wait a few more days, but with Su Sheng Nü added to the mix, she couldn't rest for a moment, fearing some unexpected change might occur.

Inside Haiya Prefecture.

It was still as lively as the first time she came.

The streets paved with blue stone bricks were crowded with people, and everything was so peaceful and harmonious. However, if one looked closely, they would find a faint trace of worry gathered between people's brows.

The anxious Little Dragon Girl had no time to worry about these things. She used a veiled hat to cover her pair of small pink dragon horns and walked aimlessly toward the depths of Haiya Prefecture.

"Where is Second Sister and Su Sheng Nü's home...?"

Haiya Prefecture covered an area of over a million square kilometers; finding a single person was no different from looking for a needle in a haystack.

"If I had known, I should have had Second Sister take me to her house last time!"

However, Little Dragon Girl had been exceptionally clever since childhood and quickly thought of a solution.

After looking around, she stopped a young man with dark skin and an honest, wooden appearance.

"Brother, please wait a moment!"

The young man only took one look at Little Dragon Girl and was shocked by her enchanting and seductive beauty. He panicked and looked away, his Face turning red as he stammered, "Young Miss, may I... may I help you with something?"

"I would like to ask you if there is a stunningly beautiful woman surnamed Su and a handsome young man surnamed Su in Haiya Prefecture?" Little Dragon Girl said softly.

"A stunningly beautiful woman surnamed Su? You must be talking about the eldest Young Miss of the Su Family, Su Quan, right? Her beauty is famous throughout the world, and she is hailed as the ultimate beauty of the Fourth Mountain!"

The young man thought for a moment and then said with some uncertainty, "As for a handsome young man surnamed Su, I'm afraid I have truly never heard of him."

"Is that so!"

Little Dragon Girl nodded understandingly. Although she was a bit confused by the man's latter half of the sentence, she just assumed it was because "Su Sheng Nü" stayed in the inner chambers all year round and thus was unknown to the world.

"Then please, brother, show me the way to the Su Family!"

After clarifying the location, Little Dragon Girl's figure flickered and she disappeared from the spot.

A moment later, she walked out of a hidden, dark alley and looked at the imposing and magnificent Su Family residence before her. A look of solemnity appeared on her pretty Face.

"I previously guessed that with Second Sister and Su Sheng Nü's cultivation and talent, their background should be extraordinary. I didn't expect their mother to be the Prefect of Haiya Prefecture, a Peak Cultivator of the Mahayana Realm. This is a bit tricky!"

Not knowing the internal situation of the residence, she chose not to infiltrate recklessly. Instead, she walked into the restaurant across the street, chose a table by the window, and sat down to observe the movement at the residence's main gate.

"Young Miss, may I ask what you would like to eat?" The waiter walked over with a warm smile.

"Can this be used as money?"

Little Dragon Girl casually took out a massive pure white pearl.

"Is this... a Ten-Thousand-Year Glazed White Pearl from the deep sea?"

The waiter gasped, clearly someone who knew their goods. She hurriedly looked around, and after ensuring no one had noticed, she discreetly tucked the pearl into her bosom and said eagerly, "Of course it can! Whatever you want to order, just order it!"

What a joke!

Forget about ordering dishes; this pearl was more than enough to buy ten of their restaurants.

"Hmm, give me one of each of your signature dishes!" Little Dragon Girl said casually.

She actually had no concept of the pearl's value; after all, these things were used as paving stones in the East Sea Dragon Palace.

The food was served very quickly.

A few minutes later, a large table of fragrant dishes was presented.

At this moment, it was Peak mealtime, and the restaurant was bustling with the sounds of people clinking glasses.

Little Dragon Girl picked up a slice of beef and stuffed it into her cherry lips, chewing lightly. Just as she was enjoying the delicious food, a sentence from a nearby table suddenly reached her ears.

"Hey, sisters, have you heard?"

"Our Prefect actually has a son named Su Sheng Nü. He's born so beautiful that even a Heavenly Immortal would pale in comparison!"

"Word has it that he is to be engaged to a Young Miss from a great Family in the Immortal Realm. In a few days, a Dao Companion Ceremony will be held to announce it to the world!"

"..."
