Road to Peace

Yang Shen originally thought that after the official announcement of this matter, the mermen's opposition to this ceremony would definitely be higher than that of the human beings when President Auston announced that "General Janssen" would go to marry him.

Especially at Yueguang's funeral back then, the group of mermen's hatred for humans was simply chilling.

Therefore, he couldn't help being a little surprised when he found that most of the merman civilians were happy to see what happened, and even happily.

And it seems that the mermaid civilians have a different attitude towards human beings than those mermaid soldiers who have been fighting all the year round.

What he doesn't know is that the issue of Lanhuang's partner has always been a heart problem for the sharks.

The mysterious and impenetrable prophecy made by the wizard to Lan Suyuan is naturally one of the reasons for worrying.

But the more serious problem is that their great Majesty the Blue Emperor doesn't seem to have any interest in finding a life partner.

Not only did he reject the requests for self-recommendations from men and women of the right age who admired him in the clan, but he also had no favors for the noble sons and daughters of several noble families.

And because of the Lord Lan Huang's consistent unsmiling and strong aura of not getting close to strangers, he also scares away many admirers who want to follow him and try to win favor with diligence, care, tenderness and consideration.

Therefore, in the decades since he ascended the throne as an adult, no living creature has ever been able to approach and live in Lan Suyuan's dormitory. chill.

Over time, all the Mermaids had to accept the sad fact that their beloved Blue Emperor might die alone.

And now, Lan Suyuan announced that he would hold a ceremony!

Just the news that the Blue Emperor will officially hold the ceremony is exciting enough. As for who the object of the ceremony is, it is relatively less prominent.

Even so, the mermaids are still full of gratitude to "General Jansern"-this treatment is completely different from when he first arrived.

Because in the eyes of the mermaids, only the ritual is the sacred act of confirming a partner, and the so-called human beings sending General Jansern over for a kiss is no different from sending a hostage over to ensure temporary peace.

No matter how Utopia decided on this "marriage", it was nothing more than one or a few more humans to Silver Blue Sea at that time, and their Blue Emperor was still single.

But now that a ceremony is being held, the meaning is completely different. This is a message of formal acceptance.

Most of the mermen were full of curiosity and relief about the "General Jansern" who managed to impress His Majesty the Blue Emperor, who was colder than an iceberg.

The gossip spread like wildfire, whether they had seen it or not, they were all talking about various stories about General Jansern.

Some say that his face is as handsome as a god, surpassing any mermaid, some say that he is as powerful as the Blue Emperor, and some even say that he possesses miraculous powers that can charm people's hearts...

Of course, there are also a small number of mermen who questioned, thinking that Jan Seen is a human being after all, and taking him as the merman's lifelong partner may bring unnecessary trouble and danger to the merman family, and he is likely to Disagreement.

However, no matter how many voices and speculations there are, once Lan Suyuan has ordered, there is absolutely no way to change it.

Time passed by every minute, and everything related to the ceremony began to be prepared. When the auspicious day came, all the mermaids would be able to attend, and naturally they would be able to witness the true face of Jansern with their own eyes.

Similarly, human beings who have been fighting with them for many years will also send representatives to watch the ceremony to show the goodness of peaceful coexistence between the two races.

However, for them, the mermaids are not so easy to talk to.

They can accept the partner chosen by the Blue Emperor even if it is difficult, but for these other humans from Utopia, it is absolutely impossible to make them unsuspecting and really treat them as friends.

Fortunately, it's just a ceremony, as long as those human beings don't make trouble then, it's okay to endure for a while.

The boiling scene outside Longxiao Hall did not spread to this palace complex, and the main hall of Longxiao Hall was as quiet and solemn as ever.

Lan Suyuan was still sitting on the throne, under which stood the expressionless merman guards, and next to him was a human.

Humans are naturally Yang Shen.

His original scope of activities was limited to the sleeping hall and the nearby garden, but since Lan Suyuan inexplicably took him to the sea to bask in the sun that day, he found that the hostility in the eyes of the sharks who watched him was much less.

And Lan Suyuan began to take him in and out of various nearby palaces. Although there was no explanation, Yang Shen felt that he was planning to let him get acquainted with the environment in this area.

This kind of behavior can be called gentle for this person, but for some reason, Yang Shen always felt a little uneasy and anxious in his heart, but he couldn't tell what he was feeling uneasy and anxious about.

Lan Suyuan never told Yang Shen about the conversation with Wu Kui and Wu Kui's suggestion.

In Yang Shen's mind, this ceremony was used to lure snakes out of the cave, and Lan Suyuan had clearly told him that the ceremony would not be carried out to the end.

However, President Auston and the people he brought will definitely take advantage of this opportunity to do something.

He knew this, and so did Lan Suyuan.

Perhaps these uneases just come from the fact that he still can't guess what specific actions Auston will take then, and no matter what happens at that time, he will be a traitor in the eyes of mermen and humans.

"You're distracted."

When Lan Suyuan's voice sounded, Yang Shen was startled, and then he remembered that he was now in the main hall of Longxiao Hall, next to Lan Suyuan's throne.

When they were visiting the nearby palace before, a merman came to tell Lan Suyuan that someone wanted to see him, so Lan Suyuan brought him along.

"Sorry, I lost my composure for a while." It was a bit embarrassing to be seen wandering off.

Lan Suyuan stared straight ahead, "You think too much, thinking without the ability to act is just a burden."

Yang Shen, who was gradually getting used to his way of speaking, smiled and shook his head, "I'm already powerless. If you don't think about it, you don't like talking to wood, right?"

After a pause, he said again: "I will pay attention next time." If there is a next time.

The merman guards standing silently on both sides under the throne remained motionless, as if they could not hear the strange conversation above.

Lan Suyuan didn't speak anymore, and he didn't seem to be angry at this small human being's bold rebuttal, as if the thing standing next to him was really a log.

At this moment, there was a soft sound of water, and two figures swam into the hall, passed through the merman guards standing neatly, and stopped to salute to the throne three steps away.

The Yang Shen who was standing a little bit in front was already familiar, it was Lan Yin, Lan Suyuan's powerful general, but the merman standing behind her had an unfamiliar face.

A very beautiful girl, but looks a little immature, probably just grown up, with dark green seaweed-like long hair draped over her shoulders, and she looks extremely sexy.

She raised her head and looked at Lan Suyuan, her eyes were full of admiration and worship, she seemed to have a thousand words to say, but now she could only keep silent.

Lan Yin nodded slightly, and said neatly: "Your Majesty, this is Ling Yu, who will take Yue Guang's place and become one of us."

These words were a bit strange for some reason, Yang Shen couldn't help but glanced at the merman named Ling Yu, who knew that the other party immediately felt his gaze, and stared back viciously.

That look might be a little more cruel than vicious, Yang Shen frowned, feeling that the little girl really wanted to skin him to pieces.

And this kind of hatred doesn't seem to be completely similar to the simple long-standing grievances between the two races, but he didn't continue to think about it, because Lan Suyuan was already talking.

"Lingyu, can you volunteer?" he asked.

Hearing Lan Suyuan's question to her, Lingyu blushed a little, bit her lip, suppressed her excitement, and said firmly: "Lingyu voluntarily follows my emperor, and I will die!"

It was a slightly low-pitched male voice.

It was only then that Yang Shen discovered that this beautiful "little girl" was actually a boy, but because he had just grown up and the mermaids were all too beautiful, he misunderstood her gender.

Faced with Ling Yu's agitation, Lan Suyuan remained unmoved. He looked at him with scrutiny, and asked slowly and majesticly: "Do you understand the price you need to pay to become a fighter? Even so, you don't regret it." , until death reaps your life?"

Feeling more and more weird about this conversation, Yang Shen felt a little bit in his heart, faintly felt that there seemed to be some important clue that had slipped away but failed to catch it, he couldn't help but glance at Lan Suyuan.

Just at this moment, he received another almost gnashing of teeth gaze from Ling Yu.

The boy standing behind Lanyin raised his head, clenched his fists, and paused every word.

"Master Lanyin has told Ling Yu everything. Even so, his subordinates still believe in following my emperor and protecting the people of my family. They will never regret it until death comes."

After speaking, he saluted deeply again.

Lan Suyuan looked at him for a while, then looked at Lanyin, "Take him to the Palace of Reincarnation." Fu turned his gaze back again, "Lingyu, you will fill in the vacancy for Yueguang from now on, I hope you will always remember today's oath."

Lingyu's eyes were slightly red, as if she was about to shed tears at any moment, "This subordinate will never forget it for the rest of my life!"

After speaking, he was supposed to leave with Lanyin, but he suddenly gave Yang Shen a look, his eyes stayed on the green shark pearl on his chest for a moment, and said suddenly: "Your Majesty, I still have something to say!"

Then, without waiting for Lan Suyuan's consent, he pointed at Yang Shen who was standing by the side.

"This person is not worthy to be your lifelong partner! Human beings are cunning and sinister, and have a sworn hatred against our clan. Who knows what evil intentions he has coming here?!"

"You must be deceived by cunning humans, so you want to hold a ceremony with him. Look at his face, it will definitely bring terrible disasters to our family, and the group of humans will come to euphemistically call the ceremony during the ceremony. If When the time comes, they should join forces inside and out, what if they harm our clan?"

Standing beside him, Lan Yin's eyes flickered slightly, as if she didn't expect Ling Yu to explode suddenly, and blatantly accused the person chosen by Lan Huang, and couldn't help but glance at Lan Huang on the throne.

Lan Suyuan listened quietly, neither telling Ling Yu to shut up, nor expressing her approval.

Seeing that he was not stopped, Ling Yu felt that Lan Suyuan probably listened to his words, pointing at Yang Shen and scolding him even more harshly, even Yang Shen felt that some words were really unbearable.

Seeing that Lan Suyuan didn't intend to intervene, Lan Yin couldn't get Ling Yu to shut up, so she had to step aside.

The people on the throne did not move, and the merman guards in the hall would not stand up for a human being. As long as the people they guarded did not appear in danger or gave orders, they stood there indifferently like stone sculptures.

Seeing that Yang Shen did not refute, Lingyu felt that this human being was useless, and he didn't even have the courage to retort.

It's too ridiculous to be so unbearable, and even try to lure Lanhuang to form a partner with him. However, if you don't get a response to scolding like this, it's like punching cotton, which is really powerless.

Lingyu took a breath, and suddenly said loudly: "Human! I want to fight you!"

As soon as these words came out, even Lan Suyuan raised his eyelids.

The outsiders don't understand it, but the mermaids in the temple understand it. This kind of challenge is different from challenges in the general sense.

Among the mermaids, only when two mermaids have the intention of pursuing a mermaid at the same time, the two competing mermaids may challenge each other, and the loser has no right to pursue their favorite Object.

Ling Yu's move was not only out of hatred between the two clans, but also a show of love for Lan Huang!

When the blue emperor was about to hold a sacred ceremony three days later, he showed his love to the blue emperor and challenged the blue emperor's ritual object. If the news spread, it might cause another disturbance.

Fortunately, people in this temple should be tight-lipped, which is a blessing.

Especially Lanyin, who knew Lan Suyuan had arranged for the ceremony, she knew very well that even if the human being was defeated in the challenge, it would be impossible for the person at the ceremony to be replaced by Lingyu three days later, but...she also wanted to see How will this human being react.

What about the Blue Emperor?Will Blue Emperor stop this challenge?

He has the right, the ability, and the reason to stop it. At this time, there shouldn't be extra problems. If Yang Shen is injured, it will make those humans who came to watch the ceremony even more commotion.

However, apart from raising his eyes, Lan Suyuan didn't move at all, and didn't respond to Lingyu's challenge to Yang Shen.

This is actually a tacit consent.

Lanyin didn't know what their emperor was up to, so she could only think that if that human being was smarter, he'd better choose to refuse. It's okay to lose face, human beings are inherently fragile.

With high fighting spirit, Lingyu stared straight at the unsightly human, "Human, dare you?! Don't pretend to be dumb!"

Before he finished speaking, Yang Shen, who had been standing there quietly like air without any reaction, raised his head, glanced at him, and said, "Okay."

Then he walked down from Lan Suyuan's throne step by step, very slowly but steadily, and walked firmly to Lingyu's side.

For some reason at that moment, Ling Yu felt a little startled.

But soon he was relieved, he was just a human being, it was ridiculous to be frightened, since he was so overwhelmed, of course he had to know that not just anyone could be Lan Huang's partner.

Following Yang Shen's movements, the two rows of merman guards in the hall retreated neatly, leaving enough space for the two who were about to fight. Lan Yin also swam to the side and looked at the field.

Lan Suyuan at the highest point straightened his body, his eyes fell on Yang Shen, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Ling Yu glanced at Lan Huang, noticed his gaze, and showed a little displeasure on his face, turned to look at Yang Shen, and rushed forward without saying a word.

It started directly.

There was a surge of water in front of Yang Shen's eyes, and in his blurred vision, a fish's tail swung fiercely, not the familiar and beautiful silver color, with infinite murderous intent.

Yet his heart was at peace.

Leaning back, barely avoiding the sweeping fish tail, he stretched out his hand and grabbed towards the caudal fin. The movement was so precise that he caught him right.

Even a master assassin like Lanyin thinks the judgment and grasp of the timing are very good.

However, Yang Shen still didn't expect that there was a layer of slippery substance attached to the tail fin. He caught it in his hand, but watched it slip out from the palm of his hand.

At the same time, the huge wave brought by Lingyu's tail swayed, causing Yang Shen's body to shake, and he couldn't stand stably, and fell straight to the ground.

A contemptuous smile appeared on Lingyu's face, she turned around suddenly, and rushed towards him again, with sharp nails growing out of her ten fingers, which could draw bloodstains when touched.

"Crack!" Yang Shen fell to the ground, but regardless of the pain, he calmly stretched out his hand and grabbed Ling Yu's wrist.

He has experienced both Lan Suyuan's and Wu Kui's strength, and knows that his resistance is so small that it can be ignored in the face of the powerful strength of the shark.

However, he can't retreat, let alone let go, so he can only push forward!

Tightly clenching his five fingers, Yang Shen gritted his teeth, then he was taken aback, and found that Ling Yu's hands were really restrained by him. The boy's strength seemed to be far inferior to that of Lan Suyuan or Wu Kui.

Could it be because he just came of age?

But now is not the time for Yang Shen to think, he is fighting, and it is far from over.Blocking Ling Yu's hand does not mean blocking his attack.

Seeing that both hands were caught, Lingyu's eyes flashed a stern look, and when Yang Shen fell to the ground, the whole person crawled up, the fish tail curled up and twisted, and he planned to crush the whole person to pieces!
