Chapter 26 The Black Dragon Under the Sea 4
Since the second prince's mansion had a little princess, the royal family had many happy events. Not only did several princes have secret feelings for the princess of the merman tribe, but even the trade on the sea became more prosperous.
The country's economy became stronger and the people's lives became more prosperous. Even if there were some rumors that the third prince divorced the merman princess for her, they were treated as royal secrets and were laughed off.
After all, the mermaids now represent money, so who can resist money? There are even many people who praise the Third Prince for his resoluteness and decisiveness. However, no one has ever mentioned the Third Prince's wife after the divorce.
Lu Changning had seen the Third Prince's wife before, and remembered that she was a very strong person. This strength came not only from her character, but also from the country behind her.
That's right, the Third Prince's wife was a princess who was married to another country by the Yu Kingdom. This act of destroying the marriage for the sake of the mermaids was undoubtedly a slap in the face of the Third Prince's wife's home country. What's funny is that the entire Yu Kingdom, for the sake of immediate interests, chose to remain silent, thus allowing the Yu Kingdom to establish a powerful enemy.
Just the day before, she parted ways with the third prince, and the next day, this foreign princess embarked on a journey back home alone. She wanted to tell everyone what she saw and heard in Yu Kingdom, and she wanted the royal family of Yu Kingdom to pay the price for what they did.
Fishermen always return with full loads every time they go out to sea, and mining teams always bring boatloads of ore inland. The royal family is extremely wealthy, and the people are also making a lot of money, which has long attracted the envy of surrounding countries. Coupled with the actions of the third prince, this piece of land that is extremely wealthy will sooner or later become fat meat in the eyes of others.
……
Five years later, Lu Changning looked at the lifeless sea in front of him and couldn't help but sigh: "After all, the ones who are hurt are the inhabitants of the seabed."
Fifteen-year-old Yu Nian didn't understand: "Master, are there people living under the sea?"
After all these years and all kinds of experiences, Yu Nian finally saw through the corruption and hypocrisy of the royal family. He formally worshipped Lu Changning as his master, and the two traveled around the continent together.
Five years ago, four other princes married the mermaid princesses, and the ties between the Yu Kingdom and the mermaids became closer.
After seeing the favor that the Emperor of Yu showed to his younger brothers, the eldest prince finally couldn't bear the temptation of power and separated from the eldest prince's wife.
After the separation, relying on his obedient and well-behaved character, he married a mermaid princess without delay and successfully joined the team favored by his father.
It was because of his parents' separation that Yu Nian completely saw through the royal family's indifference and ruthlessness, so he ran away with his master.
There have been some good things over the years. There are only eight chains left on Lu Changning. Unfortunately, the Mermaid King has not come out since he returned to the bottom of the sea five years ago. During this period, Lu Changning tried many ways to force him, but no matter his daughter got married or his grandson was born, the old king just stayed in the bottom of the sea and refused to give face to anyone.
For this reason, Lu Changning felt quite regretful. If the old man had come ashore, he might have been able to lose a few of the chains on his body.
Looking down at his apprentice, Lu Changning nodded and admitted: "In fact, there used to be a beautiful country under the sea. Countless fish lived in the water. Even though cannibalism often occurred, it was generally a good country."
Yu Nian looked at the gray sea in front of him and said, "Master, are you talking about the former kingdom of mermaids?"
When talking about the Mermaid Kingdom, Lu Changning showed disgust on his face: "This sea area was destroyed by them. How could it be them! I'm talking about the world before the mermaids existed."
Yu Nian had never heard of these things before: "Master, mermaids have existed for many, many years. A world without them would be so far away."
Lu Changning thought back to those days: "Back then, it was such a simple era! There was no intrigue, no double-dealing, and no hidden meanings in language. Everything was very straightforward. Humans at that time were very cute. As long as they were given enough food every day, they would be silly and happy all day long. Although they had no culture and communicated only through shouting, they were so cute. One or two furry little guys holding hands, I miss them so much just thinking about it."
Yu Nian listened to this description, and it didn't sound like a human being: "Master, are you talking about monkeys?"
Lu Changning did not continue the conversation, but talked about something else: "After the mermaids appeared, or more precisely, after the mermaids got the Dinghai Pearl, a treasure given to them by the gods, they began to plunder the sea unscrupulously. Not only did they regard the entire deep sea as their kingdom, but now they are using the power of the Dinghai Pearl to help humans occupy the underwater world. The people down there are suffering terribly, and the fish and people are living in misery. I'm afraid that it won't be long before this sea will completely become a dead sea."
Having followed his master for so long, Yu Nian naturally knew the horror of a sea turning into a dead sea. It would affect not only fish, but also humans. If the sea died, it would be like the aorta of the world being cut off. Would the extinction of the human race be far away?
Yu Nian gritted his teeth and said, "The mermaids are really hateful."
Lu Changning looked back at his little apprentice. He didn't know if it was because of the remnant soul, but he actually saw the shadow of Yun Chongguang in him. He reached out and held his apprentice's hand to prevent the impatient little guy from falling again: "Let's go. Today we promised to go to meet the King of Yu and see how the country has changed after so many years."
It turns out that, apart from becoming more magnificent, the country has made no progress in other aspects. King Yu, who had agreed to the meeting, was absent at the last minute. He hid in the harem and played with the two mermaids, and instead sent Jiao Shiba to deal with him.
Lu Changning sighed inwardly, the fate of this country was completely tied to the mermaids.
"Greetings to the Second Prince's Consort." Lu Changning bowed with Yunian, but was immediately helped up by Jiao Shiba: "Sir, please stand up. I have heard of your great name for a long time, but I didn't expect to meet you today."
Lu Changning shook his head: "Second Prince Consort, you are joking. I am Yu Nian's master. We met five years ago. Maybe there were too many people around at that time, so it is normal for you to forget me."
Jiao Shiba then noticed Yu Nian behind Lu Changning and covered her mouth in surprise: "Yu Nian, you are my eldest brother's eldest son Yu Nian, you have grown so big."
Yu Nian smiled and called her Auntie Huang: "You look exactly the same as when I left."
This should have been a compliment to the youth, but Jiao Shiba showed no sign of being happy. He subconsciously touched his face and said, "I... I just take good care of myself."
Then, Jiao Shiba looked at Lu Changning again and said, "Mr. Lu, I heard that you are a cultivator, and you are very accomplished. I wonder if you can achieve immortality?"
Lu Changning smiled and bowed: "You are joking. Although I am working towards immortality, I am still far from that level. I am not like your race, the Second Prince's Consort, who has eternal life."
Yes, in this world, the mermaids are immortal if there is no external interference. From ancient times to the present, the few events that have caused the greatest loss of the mermaid population are the succession of the mermaids' royal power and their infighting. So many years have passed, and one can imagine how many mermaids there are in the sea.
No wonder the black dragon could be imprisoned until death and unable to escape. Facing this increasingly powerful core of the formation, how could it possibly be defeated?
However, immortality is a gift from God, but also a punishment from God. When you stay away from the world and are unknown to outsiders, you may be able to live for a long time, but once people around you know about it, this immortality will be interrupted.
Lu Changning said, do you think my five years of traveling around was in vain? Every day and every second, he promoted the goodness of mermaids. From their beauty, control over the ocean, and longevity, he carefully introduced them to people from all over the world.
After so many years of introduction, the name of the mermaids has become well-known in this world, and the Yu Kingdom, which lives with the mermaids, has also become well-known throughout the world.
Jiao Shiba looked at Lu Changning, a trace of worry appeared on his innocent face: "Then do you have any method to prolong life?"
Lu Changning told the truth: "I'm afraid the only way is to join our sect. Through training, you can enhance your own strength and thus extend your lifespan."
Jiao Shiba looked at Lu Changning in embarrassment: "It's just an extension."
Finally, the meeting ended, and the two masters and apprentices were still as usual, but Jiao Shiba was distraught, as if he had lost his soul. I wonder what problems can trouble this carefree merman.
