The singing sounded from far away and gradually approached, as if someone was humming an ancient and enchanting ballad in Su Yu's ear.

Su Yu, who was originally sleeping in Shi Wei's arms, slowly and silently opened her ink-black and clear eyes.

The cave had fallen into silence at some point, so quiet that even the breathing of Shi Wei and the others seemed to have disappeared.

Su Yu sat up from Shi Wei's arms in a trance and subconsciously looked outside the cave.

In the direction she was looking, a male mermaid was standing at the entrance of the cave.

When Su Yu met the scarlet eyes of the male merman, Su Yu, who was in a daze, seemed to be stuffed into a mint bucket full of ice cubes and woke up instantly.

When Su Yu saw the appearance of the male merman clearly, a hint of fear appeared in his eyes.

This male merman had the good looks that all mermen had. His upper body was intact, but his lower body...

But it has a white bone fish tail!

He stood silently at the entrance of the cave, his scarlet eyes staring at her, which was extremely strange and terrifying!

Su Yu felt cold all over and his brain stopped working due to fear. After a few seconds, he forced himself to calm down and quickly tried to push Shi Wei beside him, but missed.

At this time, Su Yu realized belatedly that Shi Wei, Lan Qi, Sheng Qing, Doris and the cubs, as well as Xiao Lu and Shen Guangmu had all disappeared in the cave at some point.

She was the only one left, along with the strange male merman who had been standing at the entrance of the cave.

Su Yu was a little flustered. She called out to the system in her heart, stared at the strange male merman at the door with vigilance, and asked, "Who are you? What do you want to do?!"

The male mermaid didn't say anything. He slowly came to Su Yu and stopped half a meter away from her grass nest.

The male mermaid is already tall, and now this male merman standing in front of the grass nest makes Su Yu look even more weak and pitiful.

Her heart sank, but she remained alert as she slowly moved back and began looking for an opportunity to leave.

She was right in her guess. Besides them, there were other orcs hiding in the dark in this forbidden land of the mermaids!

So, is this male mermaid in front of her the culprit who ordered the strange gray fog to kidnap her and Doris?

Su Yu's mind was racing. She didn't know what method the man in front of her had used to make Shi Wei and the others disappear, but she knew that her current situation was not good, and she had to find a way to escape from him as soon as possible.

When Su Yu was about to provoke the male in front of her and use his attack to activate the system's protection mechanism, the strange merman male who had been staring at her quietly for a while suddenly spoke.

His voice was hoarse, as if he hadn't spoken for a long time. He called her: "Amu..."

When Su Yu heard his shout, his cerebellum shrank instantly.

She couldn't help but pick her ears in an unsightly manner, opened and closed her mouth, stared at him with wide eyes in disbelief, and asked with difficulty: "You...what did you call me?"

The male merman still stared at her, slowly moved towards her, and shouted in a hoarse, low voice with a bit of grievance: "Am..."

"I hurt so much..."

Su Yu: “…”

This male merman has lived for who knows how many years! How could she have a son that old?

Su Yu wanted to say something but stopped himself. Just when he was about to open his mouth to speak, the scene in front of him suddenly froze for a moment.

The next second, she saw the male merman with the bone tail split apart in front of her.

Just like a broken mirror, it shattered into pieces. Shi Wei's muffled voice also came to his ears, and the voice gradually grew louder: "...Yuyu...Yuyu..."

“Yuyu!!”

Su Yu suddenly opened his eyes and sat up from the grass nest, his forehead and body covered with dense cold sweat.

Shi Wei was relieved to see Su Yu finally wake up from her nightmare. He hugged her tightly and used his supernatural power to warm her body. His warm hands gently patted her back and said, "It's okay, it's okay."

Su Yu leaned in Shi Wei's arms for a long time before gradually coming to her senses. She called him uncertainly, "Shi Wei?"

Shi Wei: “Yes, I’m here.”

Su Yu: "Shi Wei?"

Shi Wei: “I’m here.”

"..."

After shouting twice, Su Yu still didn't react. She pinched her thigh subconsciously. The pain from her thigh made her sober up a lot, and she realized that this was painful and not a dream.

So was the male mermaid with a white bone fish tail that she just dreamed of a dream?

Su Yu asked him blankly: "What's wrong with me?"

Shengqing and Lanqi also came over. Shengqing was holding a wooden basin filled with warm water. He wet the clean animal skin, wiped the cold sweat off her forehead with concern and heartache, and said in a deep voice: "Yuyu, you just had a nightmare."

Shi Wei had just coaxed her to sleep and was about to take a nap when he noticed that her breathing was unstable.

Looking down, Su Yu's brows were tightly furrowed, his face looked extremely uneasy, and his body was tense, as if he had had a horrible dream.

He called Sheng Qing over immediately. After injecting the healing power, Su Yu's condition stabilized a little. Shi Wei also kept calling her name to wake her up from her sleep.

Sheng Qing and Shi Wei did not ask Su Yu what she dreamed about immediately. They wiped her face, and Lan Qi poured her a cup of warm water and slowly fed it to Su Yu.

After Su Yu's emotions gradually stabilized, Lan Qi asked her softly: "Yu Yu, what did you dream about just now?"

Su Yu did not hide it from them and quickly and briefly told them the "dream" she had just had. At the end, she said in a somewhat puzzled tone: "This is the first time I have seen that male merman, and I am still young now. I definitely cannot give birth to a son as old as him."

She also had no idea why the strange male merman in her dream called her Am.

Su Yu touched her face, feeling a little depressed. Did she look old?

Ryan, who was sleeping in the grass nest next door with Doris in his arms, listened for a while, then suddenly sat up as if resurrected from the dead, and asked hurriedly, "Did you really dream of a male merman with a white bone tail?"

Su Yu was startled by Li An's sudden voice, and after reacting, she quickly said, "Really."

"Could it be that thing?" Ryan scratched his head and muttered to himself.

Su Yu looked at another grass nest separated by animal skins, frowned and asked Li An: "Do you know him?"

Lian was silent for a moment, shook his head, and finally thought of Su Yu who couldn't see, so he said: "I don't know him, but I have heard rumors about him."

"Rumor has it that he is the first high priest of our mermaid tribe."

Li An paused, then continued: "When he died, he was still a minor."
