Sea World of Beasts: The Sinful Mermaid - She's a Heartthrob

Chapter 9 Ice and Snow Bear Beastmen

"Sheng Sheng, don't be afraid!"

A clear and crisp voice brushed past Chao Sheng's ears like a light veil, dispelling her gloomy mood. She smiled with emotion and looked up to meet Bai Ni's concerned gaze.

"Bai Ni..." This was the first time anyone had stood by her side in the face of the crowd's condemnation.

Bai Ni reached out, wanting to pull her into his arms in her vulnerable state, but considering the inappropriateness of the situation, he could only rub her silky purple hair a couple of times to calm his impulse. He stared at Chao Sheng, his eyes glistening with tears, "Sheng Sheng, I believe you. I know you're not lying."

"Chao Sheng, we believe in you too." Bai Pei patted Chao Sheng affectionately. Chao Sheng's willingness to stand up was indeed a good thing for the Whale Giant Tribe.

The fact that Bai Ni is standing here unharmed shows that no one knows this female's abilities better than they do.

“Yes, Chaosheng, we all believe you.” Bai Qi also looked at her with concern.

Chao Sheng pursed her lips. This was the first time the reclusive priestess had received so much heartfelt care. At this moment, she knew she hadn't done anything wrong. All her gratitude was summed up in one sentence: "Thank you."

Bai Pei smiled and took two steps toward the stone platform. Her voice wasn't loud, but it was loud enough for all the beastmen on the island to hear clearly, "From now on, our Whale Giant Tribe will never use the Whale Shark Clan's Sea Spirit Ginseng!"

"Now that my son Bai Ni is engaged to Chao Sheng, anyone who dares to lay a hand on Chao Sheng is an enemy of our Whale Giant Tribe!"

Bai Pei said these words with a smile, but her eyes swept over Xi Zhi and Ru Sui on the stone platform with a warning look.

“You…” Ru Sui looked at Bai Pei in shock, a hint of fear flashing in her trembling pupils. Was the Whale Giant Tribe openly going against her?
It's important to understand that orcas are natural enemies to the great white sharks. If Bai Pei were to rally the orca pods to hunt down their Mad Shark tribe...

"It's alright." Xi Zhi gave her a reassuring look. She looked at the petite Chao Sheng below the stage, who was hanging her head and remaining silent, and smiled with confidence. It would be easy to sow discord between this sinful female and the whale giant tribe.
Once this mermaid loses the support of the whale tribe, they can do whatever they want with her!
Xi Zhi looked at the delicate and frail merman female with ill intent, a smug smile playing on his lips.
"Did this mermaid only choose Bai Ni as her beast husband?"

"That won't do!"

"She must choose at least two beastmen today!"

Chao Sheng suddenly looked up, her eyes wary. "Why?" Her calm tone was laced with the anger of someone being relentlessly pressured.

"Hmph! Why?" Xi Zhi looked at her sarcastically, seemingly unable to understand how she dared to ask such a question!
"You killed a precious unmarried female. The polar seas are already far more male than female. You should know how many male beastmen can't even find a female!"

"Since you killed her, you must marry more beastmen to reproduce for our polar seas and atone for your sins!"

"..." Such a ridiculous reason? Chao Sheng looked at Xi Zhi speechlessly. She glanced around at the group of beastmen. Apart from Bai Ni, there shouldn't be any male beastman who would be so foolish as to want to be her beast husband.

"Is there anyone willing to be my beastly husband? I don't think so..."

"I am willing."

Before Chao Sheng could finish her sarcastic remark, an extremely handsome orc jumped down from the rugged ice wall. He seemed to have been sitting there since the start of the treasure hunt, otherwise his distinctive appearance would have definitely caught Chao Sheng's attention.

He had dark skin and white hair, but his features were exceptionally delicate and handsome. He was dressed in a white-gold fur animal suit, and his appearance and attire were very different from other orcs.

He walked with elegant steps, ignoring Bai Ni's increasingly unpleasant expression, and went to Chao Sheng to introduce himself, like a gentle and courteous gentleman, "Hello, my name is Yin Xu, I am an Ice and Snow Bear Beastman."

"Ice Bear?" Chao Sheng looked at Yin Xu in surprise, recalling a brief introduction about the Ice Bear, which was the only amphibious furry creature in this ocean world.

But she didn't even know him, and suddenly she said she wanted to be his beastly husband...it was quite presumptuous. "Silver Floss?!" A sharp, incredulous voice came from the stone platform. Xi Zhi narrowed her alluring, upturned eyes, her tone fierce, "You want to be her beastly husband?!"

"Are you crazy? She's just a convicted criminal exiled here!"

The aloof and proud female lost her usual composure at this moment. Her narrowed eyes gleamed with barely perceptible jealousy. She couldn't believe that the haughty and aloof Silver Floss had actually taken the initiative to say that she wanted to marry this mermaid?!
She had no tribesmen and was all alone. Without the protection of the orcs, she would soon die in the dangerous polar seas. How could Yinxu have taken a liking to such a female orc?!

The pride of being the chief of the whale shark clan seemed to have been trampled underfoot and crushed. From that moment on, Xizhi truly hated this beautiful but empty-handed female.

Xi Zhi had known Yin Xu for a long time. Yin Xu was the last snow bear in the polar sea. He had no tribe and could only live alone. All the beastmen in the polar sea thought that he would not live to grow up. The existence of the snow bear might only become a legend from now on.

But by sheer coincidence, Yinxu lived to adulthood, and was handsome, beautiful, and quite capable.

Xi Zhi fell for him and even fantasized about working with him to propagate the endangered Snow Bear clan—a grand and romantic dream.

When Xizhi came of age, she sincerely proposed to him, asking him to be her husband. Unfortunately, he was ungrateful and coldly rejected her without even giving a reason.

But now, he's actually offering to be this mermaid's beast husband?!

Doesn't this mean that she is inferior to this wicked woman with a long history of misdeeds?

Xi Zhi's cold and beautiful eyes were filled with deep anger. Her suspicious and annoyed gaze was fixed on Yin Xu, wondering if Yin Xu had said something wrong because she was sick. Otherwise, how could she have done something so outrageous?

Yin Xu seemed completely oblivious to the gazes of the other orcs. He maintained a distance that was neither too close nor too far from Chao Sheng, his deep brown eyes fixed on her with a hint of expectation, his gentle voice like a refreshing hot spring.
"I am willing to marry her and make her my mistress." This was how Nishichi answered her question.

Enraged, Nishi Chizuru laughed in exasperation, "This is utterly absurd!" He must have developed health problems from being alone for the past two years!

Yin Xu didn't say much. He was like the snow in early winter, cold but with a warmth that didn't make people feel uncomfortable.

“I…” Chao Sheng looked at the unfamiliar orc, hesitant to speak. She wanted to refuse, but the situation was urgent, and she couldn’t think of a suitable reason for the moment.

Bai Ni looked at the uninvited guest with an unfriendly expression, his round eyes almost spitting fire, but what he said was, "Sheng Sheng, agree to him."

"Huh?" Chao Sheng looked at Bai Ni in confusion. Didn't he say he liked her? Is he just going to ask her to accept another man?
Bai Ni, under Chao Sheng's bewildered gaze, pursed his lips in grievance, his heart brimming with jealousy. But he wasn't the kind of ungrateful, jealous husband who didn't know his place.

He whispered in Chao Sheng's ear, "I'll explain it to you later. Just go along with him and agree for now."

"?" Chao Sheng frowned deeply. She silently looked at the dark-skinned orc standing not far away. After a long while, she sighed silently and compromised, "Okay, I agree."

She blinked, her eyes shifting with emotion. Her amethyst eyes held a hint of anger as she impatiently looked at the haughty female beastman. "I already have two beast husbands. Do you have anything else to say?"

The almost provocative question reignited Xizhi's anger, which had barely subsided. "You..."

The male orc who rejected her has now chosen such a terrible female, and now this female is even provoking her to her face. She really can't take it anymore!
She clenched her fists tightly, veins bulging on her arms with terrifying power. She almost wanted to rush up and kill the mermaid to vent her anger, but her last shred of reason held her back. She took a deep breath and said, "It's alright now."

A single female sinner isn't worth her losing her composure. As for Yin Xu, she remembered that he was at the sixth level of his superpower. If it weren't for the Sea Spirit Ginseng, he would have died soon due to the superpower riot.

Death will teach him what the right choice is.
