Who would raise a villain as a wife?

This question puzzled Jiuqi, "Are you curious about Jiuqing and that human?"

"Just take that as the case. So, are there any mermaids who form partnerships with humans?"

Jiuqi shook his head, "I heard that there was one a long time ago, but I don't know whether it is true or not."

"What is their ending according to the legend?"

"We've been expelled. It's impossible for us to stay in the deep sea anyway. Humans can't survive in the deep sea. We will be crushed into meat patties by the high pressure on the seabed."

He Yunjing sighed. This is indeed a problem.

Forget it, it’s too early to consider this. Now we should let Jiuqian get the Heart of the Deep Sea.

He Yunjing said, "Anyway, I will be on guard against Jiuqing, and you just focus on getting the Heart of the Deep Sea. By the way, you'd better tell your people that you dealt with the Black Lion on your own, and don't mention me."

"why?"

"Because my cultivation is low, I won't be in danger. But if you say something, people will be on guard against me, and it will be inconvenient to do many things." He Yunjing stood up, "Okay, now I'm going to see your people. It would be best if I could study what kind of elixir your people should eat. It's better to prepare elixir on land, right?"

Jiuqiu had no objection to this. When He Yunjing showed his body to Lan Yan, he immediately conveyed He Yunjing's meaning.

He Yunjing carefully distinguished the structure and genetic problems of mermaids and humans, and with the help of the healing herbs carried by the mermaids, He Yunjing quickly came to a conclusion.

In fact, it is a question of survival and attributes. Mermaids are aquatic creatures, so their physical constitutions are different. The medicines they take are also grown in water and tend to be cold in nature.

It can also be used on land, but medicinal materials must also have this characteristic.

He Yunjing conveyed his idea to Jiuqi, and Jiuqi said that they could give it a try, after all, they didn't bring many medicinal herbs.

However, before that, Jiuxian asked his clansmen to release the black lion to He Yunjing. It was still covered in blood and had not been cleaned at all.

He Yunjing had a headache. This wasn't the way he was going to deal with it, okay?

He resigned himself to his fate, took out his knife and cut the black bear into eight pieces, dug out the magic core, peeled off the relatively intact fur, cut the meat, and burned the remaining internal organs that could not be used.

After doing all this, He Yunjing clapped his hands and turned back. A group of mermaids retreated silently, with fear in their eyes.

He Yunjing's eyelids twitched. "What are you afraid of? I don't eat fish!"

Jiuqiu comforted them with a few words before continuing his journey with his men.

Jiuqiu had a map, so he just had to follow the map to find the Heart of the Deep Sea. He Yunjing searched for medicinal herbs along the way.

There were not many medicinal herbs left in his storage ring and he needed to replenish them. He also had to research how to make pills for the merman tribe, so he was quite busy.

A few days later, Jiuqing, who was left alone, returned to the team. He Yunjing then realized that the mermaids all had deep-sea specialty pearls on their bodies, and they were able to sense each other.

So after Jiuqing disappeared, Jiuqi had been looking for Jiuqing, but Jiuqing was walking in the opposite direction with the people from Xuantian Sect, leaving Jiuqi and the others chasing after them?

He Yunjing laughed inwardly, and stayed quietly aside without saying a word, just watching Susu and the others scold Jiuqing.

Jiuqing was also very strange. She just stood there with her head down, tears falling down her face. She didn't say a word and looked like she was compromising. If you didn't know, you would think these mermaids were bullying her.

As soon as this thought came up, He Yunjing felt that the truth had been revealed. He asked the system, "So she unilaterally took the script of the poor little green tea who had no mother and lived under someone else's roof and was looked down upon by her clan members?"

[Wow, the host can actually understand it.] The system was a little unbelievable. He Yunjing had never understood these settings before.

He Yunjing didn't want to understand, but he had been to so many worlds and was already experienced.

After Jiuqi calmed down the tribesmen and coaxed Jiuqing for a few more words, he leaned over and asked, "Do you think there's something wrong with your sister?"

Jiuqing frowned and explained, "Jiuqing lost her mother when she was young. She is just a little timid."

"Then let me ask you, what would you think when you saw a group of humans surrounding a weak, crying little girl and accusing her?"

"That must be bullying..." Jiuqi was stuck before he could finish his words. He looked at He Yunjing in shock, "Do you think we are bullying Jiuqing?"

He Yunjing spread his hands, "It's not what I think, it's how your good sister behaved. She didn't say a word, didn't apologize, just lowered her head and cried there, looking aggrieved. Any normal person would think the same when seeing this."

"But Jiuqing has always been like this, she just..."

"Did she apologize for her behavior?"

He Yunjing was speechless with just one sentence. He clenched his fists and remained silent.

Jiuqiu had never thought of this possibility. After all, Jiuqing was raised by him. Although there were occasional quarrels within the mermaid tribe, they were all minor conflicts.

Moreover, although Susu and the others were angry that Jiuqing abandoned them and the humans, they only questioned him and did not take any action. How can this be considered bullying?

He Yunjing patted Jiuqi's shoulder sympathetically and didn't say anything else. This kind of thing was something Jiuqi had to think about and see with his own eyes. No matter how much he said, it would be useless.

Setting out again, these naive mermaids acted as if nothing had happened. Although they would not take the initiative to talk to Jiuqing, they would tacitly take care of Jiuqing.

After all, Jiuqing has the lowest and weakest cultivation among their group. Food has to be delivered to him, and he can rest immediately when he is tired, just like he is raising an ancestor.

However, Jiuqing just remained silent, cowering in the corner alone, without a smile on his face.

Jiuluo observed for several days under He Yunjing's reminder, and it was just as He Yunjing said, Jiuqing's reaction and behavior seemed like they were bullying and excluding Jiuqing.

The more Jiuqiu thought about it, the more restless he became, and finally he went to find Jiuqing.

He squatted down in front of Jiuqing and handed the spiritual fruit in his hand to her, "Jiuqing, why don't you stay with Susu and the others?"

Jiuqing's eyes were evasive, his shoulders were hunched, he looked timid, his lips were pursed, his eyes were red, and he said nothing.

Jiuqi saw this reaction, and his heart grew colder and colder. He continued to ask, "Did they bully you?"

"No, no." Jiu Qing said no, but his moist eyes said otherwise.

Jiuqi was disappointed, but still took Jiuqing's hand and placed the fruit in her palm. "You are a princess of the mermaid tribe, you are of noble status. If you have any grievances, you can tell me and I will protect you."

Jiuqing did not answer. He kept his head down the whole time. His body was full of resistance and very stiff.

He Yunjing watched the entire conversation. He was sure that there was definitely something wrong with Jiuqing. Her weak resistance was expressing one meaning, which was that she was forced and abused by the mermaids.

It is no wonder that Lu Xiao acted so ruthlessly in the plot, and Jiuqing had no intention of stopping him. Jiuqing did hate Jiulu, but this hatred was hidden very deeply. Jiuqing's current reaction and actions seemed like he was compromising.
