Chapter 206 Golden Day
"I cannot escape her control, so I can only help her set up an array on the surface of Bailing Island Lake to prevent any other beings besides Jiao Yuan from entering."
Ling Yi looked at the mountains and rivers without saying a word.
If the formation was set up by the mountains and rivers, then it makes sense why the formation is so difficult to break.
She was able to deal with the merfolk, the darlings of the sea, even before she died, and she was resurrected through a sacrifice after death, enabling her to go to the deep sea to fight the merfolk, which is enough to demonstrate her power.
Ye Qingshuang was able to tear apart the formation, corresponding to the power of the mountains and rivers... her origins are not insignificant.
While Ling Yi was pondering, Shan Chuan said again, "I am the being she condensed from the power of the curse. I cannot help her hatch, I can only help her set up the array. Hatching needs someone else to do it."
Saint-Wei chimed in, "She originally liked me, but I was too young, so I helped her find someone more suitable."
Ling Yi looked at her: "Sheng Jiao."
“Hmm.” Shengwei nodded: “Shengchuan is a scoundrel, Zhou Jianyue…”
Shengwei gave a self-deprecating laugh: "I worked hard to cultivate for her sake, and even compromised with Zhou Jianyu's suicide request, but she... when Shengchuan threw me into the sea, she was watching from the side."
"So I didn't spare either her or Sheng Chuan. That little mermaid ate their souls, turned them into puppets, and gave them to me. As for Sheng Jiao," Sheng Wei said, "she became a breeding ground for them."
"But that's not enough. Sufficient power is needed during the incubation period, and her source of power is those vengeful spirits."
At this point, Yamakawa chimed in, "Actually, a merman would be more suitable, but for some reason, she dislikes mermen extremely and is unwilling to come into contact with their power. Instead, she is particularly fond of the power of the Mermaid's Vengeance."
“Adult merfolk are not the food she wants; only merfolk cubs are the most suitable, but merfolk cubs also need to be hatched…” Shan Chuan said, “That’s why the White Spirit Island matter came about.”
Shengwei looked at Lingyi: "Once she comes out, Shanchuan and I will no longer be under her control."
Saint Wei said, "We couldn't have come to see you on our own; she helped us."
Ling said expressionlessly, "She has fainted."
“We know, but it was indeed she who helped us come to see you.” Shan Chuan looked at Ling Yi: “Ling Yi, I was born in the mountains and rivers. Because of the merfolk entering the world, I have a sense of things in the world that is beyond ordinary people. That little merfolk has the power of a god.”
Born of mountains and rivers, not of the human race.
Ling Yi looked at the mountains and rivers, pondering her identity.
Given the unique origins of the mountains and rivers, her intuition is very likely correct.
The power of God.
But whether it's the three-headed python or everything the puppet saw in its memories, they all say that the gods have disappeared, and Bai Qingjue is the only one with divine blood.
If Bai Qingjue is the only one, then what about that little merman?
If she is a god, then as the mountains and rivers say, she should be closer to the merfolk. How could she instead like Jiao Yuan? And her incubation method... is also abnormal.
The case of missing persons on Bailing Island has been resolved, but more questions have arisen.
"Ling Yi, we should go." Just as Ling Yi remained silent, Shan Chuan, holding Sheng Wei's hand, waved goodbye to Ling Yi.
Ling watched the two gradually disappear.
...
When the dream faded, Ling Yi opened her eyes.
"You're awake." Ling Yi had just opened her eyes when she heard Ji Yanzhi's voice.
"You're awake." Ling Yi reached out and touched her chest. Apart from the weakness from having her strength drained, she felt no pain. She looked at Ji Yanzhi and said, "Thank you."
"It was nothing." Ji Yanzhi looked at Ling Yi: "You slept for a day, and that little mermaid has woken up. Others' powers can't control her. She's special, so I placed a seal on her to prevent her from causing trouble."
Ling Yi had just woken up and hadn't even had a chance to tell Ji Yan about her dream when she received this answer. She immediately asked, "So she really does exist?"
Ling Yi didn't say it aloud, but she believed that since Ji Yanzhi was going to seal it, he would understand.
Ji Yanzhi did not answer directly, but said: "The Merfolk originally lived in the Longevity Sea. In the legends where the gods still existed, the ruler of the Longevity Sea was a golden-haired, golden-tailed, brave and skilled female Merfolk named Jin Zhou."
'legend'
This word is used in a very interesting way.
If the existence of the gods is just a legend to Tianyan, then it means that Ji Yanzhi has never seen them in person. If he has never seen them, yet he can seal the bloodline of the Heavenly Demon and the merfolk with divine power, then what exactly is Ji Yanzhi?
"Ling Yi." Ji Yanzhi let Ling Yi look him over without flinching, and asked gently, "Is there anything else you want to ask?"
Ling looked at him and said, "Born of mountains and rivers."
“All things have a spirit.” Ji Yanzhi didn’t say it directly, but those four words were enough for Ling Yi to understand.
All things have spirits; the spirit race.
Shanchuan is a spirit, so she can deal with merfolk and even be resurrected through sacrifice, because she is not human to begin with.
With the identity confirmed, the rest had to be suppressed until more clues were available.
Ling Yi sat up, glanced around, and didn't see anyone else: "Where are they?"
"Baijiu and Lin Chengtian went to find food. Xiao Jinhu felt smelly and wanted to wash up, so Ye Qingshuang took Lin Xinze with her."
Ji Yan thought that Ye Qingshuang also had the aura of a mermaid.
Knowing where the others had gone, Ling Yi didn't ask any more questions, only asking, "Where's that little mermaid?"
Ji Yanzhi opened his hand, and a transparent water sphere appeared in his palm. The little mermaid was trapped inside the water sphere, baring her teeth at Ji Yanzhi, but after noticing Ling Yi's gaze, she shut her mouth.
Her teeth were shattered by Ling Yi's body.
Looking at her, Ling Yi remembered what Shan Chuan had said about her having self-awareness and being able to communicate, and called out, "Jin Zhou."
The little mermaid did not react.
Ling Yi raised an eyebrow and looked at Ji Yanzhi: "It really is a legend."
Ji Yanzhi said, "Self-protection: changing to another method might elicit a response."
Ling Yi understood: "Xiao Zhou?"
The little mermaid turned to Ling Yi and frantically swung its tail.
Ling Yi looked at her, his gaze becoming much deeper.
There was no response when Jin Zhou was called, but there was a response when Han Xiao Zhou was called. In addition, there was the self-protection mentioned by Ji Yanzhi. What makes God unable to even acknowledge his own name?
"Are you stupid?" Ling Yi looked at the little mermaid inside the water sphere. "With your golden hair and tail, do you think you can fool us by not calling your name?"
The little mermaid continued to wag her tail, ignoring the warnings. She was determined to remain Jin Zhou if she didn't acknowledge his name.
Ji Yan said, "Among the merfolk, there are those with golden hair and golden tails. As long as their aura is not leaked, it's fine."
Upon hearing Ji Yanzhi speak, Jin Zhou grimaced again.
Ling Yi looked at Jin Zhou and then at Ji Yanzhi, puzzled: "She seems to really dislike you."
Ji Yanzhi nodded: "I can see that."
Ling Yi: "What did you do to her?"
Ji Yanzhi: "Apart from placing a seal on her, nothing else was done."
"Then why would she hate you so much?"
Ji Yanzhi: "I don't know."
Ling Yi was quite curious, so she looked at the little mermaid and asked him this question.
Upon hearing this question, the little mermaid reacted even more strongly than when she heard the name 'Xiao Zhou'. Her two chubby little arms pointed at Ling Yi and Ji Yanzhi, keeping her very busy.
