A sweet story about traveling into the world of beasts, killing the heroine and becoming the next in

Lanning nodded, "I can."

After she said this, smiles gradually appeared on the faces of those who hurried over.

"But why should I save him? What good will it do me?" Lanning continued.

This was like pouring a bucket of cold water on the fire, leaving them unable to react.

Even the empress's brain was short-circuited. She held the child woodenly, as if in disbelief, "What?"

Lan Ning tilted his head and looked at her, repeating what he meant, "These are the children of my enemies. What good will it do me to save them?"

There is no benefit.

These words flashed through the empress's mind.

Lan Ning glanced at the nobles with ugly faces behind the empress, and she smiled and said, "I am not a doctor, and I don't have any medical ethics. If you can convince me, I can consider it."

Her actions were seen as cold-blooded and ruthless by those who were looking for trouble.

It turns out that she was not raised by her family since childhood. When she saw these children suffering, she had no sympathy at all. How could such a person be an empress?

"You are the princess of Wanjing, you have the responsibility to protect your subjects." A nobleman behind the empress stepped forward anxiously to persuade her, "No matter what hatred there is between you and Furou, it has nothing to do with the child. What's wrong with you saving her once?"

This is moral kidnapping!

Lan Ning yawned. "Every time you force me to do something, you always use this excuse. Can't you come up with something new? This is the attitude you take when asking someone to do something for you. Please go back."

She won't tolerate people coming to her house to cause trouble.

"So what do you want? Apart from that, as long as you are willing to save these two children, we will agree to everything."

Everything is negotiable except that Furou cannot die.

Lan Ning stared at the noble man who was speaking, and then pretended to be very distressed, "But I don't want anything."

Now, everything that matters most to her is with her.

This is a complete dead end.

[Revenge mission progress 20%, bonus points +2000, remaining points -. ]

I paid back another two thousand, I’m so happy!

"But..." Lan Ning looked at the tide at the end of the team thoughtfully, "There is something strange on my little fish. If you can deal with it, I can save her baby."

???

Small fish?

Was it given by Furou?

No one knew what Furou gave, except Chaotiao at the back of the team, who had a slightly surprised look in his eyes.

How did Lan Ning know that he controlled Ling Yan's body? Did that guy tell him?

Chao Xi felt that it was a big mistake for him to follow along. He looked at the group of people in front of him who were asking questions left and right, and he didn't know whether he should go up and take on the important responsibility.

If the matter is laid bare, Lan Ning will not allow Chao Xi to escape.

"I forgot to mention it, it's a mermaid."

Mermaid?

A group of people looked back at the tide and said, "It was this person who brought the mermaid."

"Is this true?" The empress's eyes were ambiguous, and she stared straight at Chao Xi's calm face.

Wanjing Kingdom has almost no dealings with the orcs in the sea. If Furou had not gone out on business many years ago and saved Chao Xi at the beach, he would never have had the opportunity to come to Wanjing and become Furou's husband.

The empress knew about the mermaid tribe. They were very beautiful, had sweet voices, and could control the orcs on land. In the early years when she first became the empress, there were frequent cases of orcs being lured into the sea by mermaids and eaten on the border.

Chao Xi came to Wanjing and became Furou's husband. He represented the sea people and stood on Furou's side. What did it mean to give the mermaid to Lan Ning?

What else is on that mermaid?

"Bring him out." The empress would not allow any orc of unknown origin to appear around Lan Ning. She had lost too many children, and Lan Ning could not afford to get into trouble again.

Xuan Heng waved his hand to open the palace door, fished out the mermaid curled up in the pond, and threw her to the ground.

Lingyan was sleeping under the water. He was suddenly thrown to the ground. His pretty face showed a ferocious look. His beautiful lake blue eyes swept over everyone present and finally fell on Chao Xi.

He shuddered violently, then lowered his head stiffly.

He was extremely beautiful, yet had a fragility that land orcs did not have. He sat alone on the floor, trembling.

Everyone present saw clearly that this beautiful little fish was afraid, afraid of the tide. They didn't know how the mermaids got along with each other, but judging from the facial features of these two fish, they seemed to be brothers?

tidal:"......"

She definitely did it on purpose.

Saying this in front of so many people would force him to release the control over Ling Yan.

"How is it? This is a good deal, right?" Lan Ning looked at Chao Tide with a smile. She admitted that mermaids were beautiful creatures, but why did she always feel that the same creature had such a big difference in appearance.

Ling Yan lowered his eyes and looked at his fish tail. He didn't know what had happened. He was keenly aware of the heavy atmosphere at the scene.

There were two faint breaths, those were the cubs in those people's arms, dying.

And he was also brought here, why? Did Lan Ning not want him and let Chao Xi take him away?

Ling Yan's face turned pale. His mission was not completed. If he was taken back by the tide, he would be killed.

He looked up at Lan Ning. He remembered what Lan Ning said, that he would give him a chance to choose again. How come Lan Ning changed his mind after only one day?

Was it because his answer was too late?

"I..." Ling Yan looked flustered. He quickly crawled to Lan Ning's side and reached out to gently grab the hem of her skirt. "I've made up my mind. Can you please let me stay?"

Xuan Heng kicked him away. He really would not sympathize with any strange man who appeared next to Lan Ning. If Lan Ning had not been there, he would have let Chao Xi take the fish away.

Life or death, what does it have to do with him?

Lan Ning couldn't bear it. She glanced at Xuan Heng, then called the puppet maid to bring clean clothes and put them on Ling Yan. She squatted in front of Ling Yan and comforted him gently, "Don't worry, I'm just letting the tide release its control over you."

She reached out and gently touched Lingyan's wet short hair. This handsome and fragile boy was particularly touching when he cried.

"I'm not sending you away." She gently wiped the tears from Lingyan's cheeks. She found that Lingyan's tears could actually turn into white pearls, rolling on the ground one by one.

Ling Yan tightly grasped the warm hand, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw. He could not wait to move towards Lan Ning's arms, "Really? You won't lie to me?"

[Lingyan Favorability +3, Total Favorability: 15. ]

Lanning patted him on the back gently, "No."

Xuan Heng's veins on his forehead jumped as he watched this scene. He couldn't help but step forward to separate the two people hugging each other and hold Lan Ning, whose clothes were soaked, in his arms.

"Be aware of your identity." Xuan Heng's pair of golden eyes were sinister, and when he stared at Ling Yan, it was as if he was looking at an enemy with whom he had a deep hatred.

His big hands tightly grasped Lan Ning's slender waist, and he really wanted to rub this attractive little girl into his own flesh and blood.

What is there to sympathize with a fish that pretends to be pitiful?

"And you." Xuan Heng lowered his eyes and looked at the trembling cat-eared girl in his arms, "Remember what you promised me."
