Ye Wuhen's fish tail swayed gently, and his silver-purple scales glowed faintly in the darkness. "I'm not sure, but the blood connection shouldn't be wrong."

He swam to a collapsed coral column and traced the cracks on its surface with his slender fingers. "These marks are very fresh, as if they just happened."

Yang Xining swam closer and observed that the edges of the cracks were glowing with a strange green fluorescence. "These are the signs of corrosion caused by the venom of the boa constrictor."

"It seems that there is a split within the Jiaolong clan." Ye Wuhen's ear fins trembled slightly. "Someone is rebelling against the rule of the Qionglong."

Yang Xining suddenly pressed his temple and felt a sharp pain.

She sensed a familiar and violent energy wave coming from deep within the palace.

“Up ahead!” She pointed down a dark corridor. “Adilde is there, and… he’s fighting!”

The two of them swam towards the source of energy at an accelerated speed.

At the end of the corridor was a half-ruined mother-of-pearl door, from inside came the sounds of fierce fighting and the unique roar of a dragon.

Ye Wuhen signaled Yang Xining to stop and swam quietly to the door to peek.

His pupils dilated in the darkness, perfectly adapted to the dim light of the deep sea.

"The situation is not good." He swam back to Yang Xining and whispered, "Adilide was besieged by five dragons and has been seriously injured."

Yang Xining bit his lower lip.

Although Adilide is the children's biological father, taking his reverse scale is the only way to save the human world now...

"We have to help him," she said suddenly.

Ye Wuhen raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Help him? I thought we were here to take his reverse scale."

"If he is killed, the reverse scale will also be taken away by those rebellious dragons." Yang Xining analyzed calmly, and blue-purple energy began to gather in his palm.

Without waiting for Ye Wuhen to respond, she rushed towards the door.

Under the explosion of divine power, the mother-of-pearl gate was completely shattered, and Yang Xining rushed into the inner hall like a flash of lightning.

The scene before him was shocking—the blond and blue-eyed Adilde was besieged by five dragons, his body covered in wounds, his once handsome face covered in bloodstains.

His left arm hung unnaturally, and his right hand held a broken sword, barely resisting.

The five dragons besieging him had different shapes, but their eyes were all flashing with the same evil green light, and they were obviously controlled by the Qionglong.

The appearance of Yang Xining brought the battle to a sudden halt.

All the dragons, including Adilde, turned to face the uninvited guest.

"You filthy woman from the Sea God clan!" a red-scaled dragon roared, "You've come just in time. I'll kill you too!"

Yang Xining sneered, a cold light flashing in his purple-gold eyes: "Just a few of you little snakes?"

She crossed her arms over her chest and swung them outwards.

The violent divine power swept through the entire inner hall like a tsunami. Five dragons were blown away by the shock wave and slammed heavily into the wall.

Ye Wuhen took the opportunity to swim to Yang Xining's side. In his hand, a trident made of water appeared. "My power has increased a lot in the past five years. Three are mine and two are yours?"

"Deal." Yang Xining raised the corners of his lips slightly, and his body rushed towards the two nearest dragons like an arrow.

The battle raged in the deep sea.

Yang Xining concentrated his divine power at his fingertips, and each strike accurately hit the dragon's vital points.

Ye Wuhen fully utilized the mermaid's advantage in the deep sea, and his speed was so fast that the enemy could not catch him at all.

Adilde stood there in a daze, staring at the scene in disbelief.

He knew that his mind had been controlled by the Qionglong some time ago.

He finally managed to break free from its control, but he also lost a lot of his divine power.

I went back to the Jiaolong tribe to deal with the traitor, but unexpectedly I was besieged.

What shocked him even more was that Yang Xining actually came to save him!

"What are you daydreaming about!" Yang Xining dodged the Green Scale Dragon's fangs and shouted at Adilide, "Do you want to die?"

Only then did Adilide come to his senses, gripping the broken sword tightly and joining the battle.

The three-to-five situation was quickly reversed.

As the last dragon fell with a shrill wail, silence returned to the inner hall.

Adilide gasped and looked at Yang Xining warily: "Why did you save me?"

Yang Xining did not answer immediately, but turned to Ye Wuhen: "Can you give us five minutes?"

Ye Wuhen's ear fins trembled slightly, and his tail swung gracefully: "I'll go outside to keep watch." After saying that, he swam out of the inner hall.

Adilde's golden hair fluttered in the seawater, her blue eyes filled with mixed emotions: "You gave birth to my child?"

"Their names are Qinglan and Qingyan," Yang Xining said calmly. "They are now four and a half years old."

Adilide's fingers trembled slightly: "Why save me...?"

"Because I want to take your reverse scale."

Adilide's pupils shrank suddenly: "You know what that means!"

"Death." Yang Xining looked him straight in the eye. "But it can save millions of people."

"Why me?" Adilide snorted coldly, "Isn't Dias also a dragon?"

"You've already disfigured him." Yang Xining said coldly, "And what we need is the reverse scale of a purebred royal dragon. You're qualified!"

Adilide was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Can you let me see the child?"

"No!" Yang Xining's voice echoed in the deep sea, firm and resolute.

Adilde's golden hair fluttered in the water, and a flash of anger flashed in his green eyes: "That's my child!"

"Are you worthy?" Yang Xining sneered, a cold light flashing in his purple-gold eyes. "Three days ago, you were controlled by the Qionglong to kill them, and now you are almost killed by your own people. What ability do you have to protect them?"

Adilide's handsome face twisted, and his fingers clenched into fists: "I have escaped the control of the Qilin Dragon! Those traitors..."

"So what?" Yang Xining interrupted him. "Anyone who takes the Ni Lin will die. What's the point of you meeting them? It will only leave them with painful memories."

Adilide suddenly swam closer, his tall figure bringing a sense of oppression: "You have no right to make decisions for me!"

"Of course I have the right." Yang Xining looked up at him without flinching. "I am their mother. I have raised them alone for the past five years."

The sea water between the two people was violently shaking due to the collision of divine power and dragon might, and tiny bubbles kept floating up.

Ye Wuhen's voice came from outside the palace: "Xining, a large number of dragons are approaching!"

Yang Xining's expression froze, and he turned to look at Adilade: "There's no time left, give me the reverse scale!"

"Don't even think about it!" Adilide retreated suddenly, holding the broken sword across his chest. "I will not sacrifice myself for you, the Sea God Clan!"

Yang Xining's palm condensed blue-purple energy, and his eyes became dangerous: "Then don't blame me for taking it by force."

Just as the two were on the verge of a confrontation, a golden light suddenly shot in from the broken roof of the palace.

A slender figure slowly descended, its golden hair shining like sunlight in the water.

"Uncle Yas?!" Yang Xining exclaimed.

The person who came was Dias, and his blue eyes were full of vicissitudes of life.

"Xining..." Dias' voice was still as gentle as water.

Adilide was as if facing a formidable enemy: "Dias! How dare you, a traitor, appear before me!"

Dias ignored his nephew's roar and swam to Yang Xining: "Xining, take my reverse scale."

"What?" Yang Xining looked up suddenly.

Even Adilde looked at him in surprise.

"I already know that she has fallen..."

Dias's voice was very soft, but it hit Yang Xining's heart like a heavy hammer.

"You know?" Yang Xining's voice trembled slightly.

"Three days ago." Dias' fingers gently stroked a shell pendant hanging from his chest. "She injected her final strength into the North Sea Seal, delaying the Qilin Dragon's breaking of the seal." He looked at Yang Xining with a wry smile. "From that moment on, I knew she was gone."

"I'm sorry, Uncle Yas, I don't know how to tell you about my mother." Yang Xining lowered his head with some guilt.

Dias gently held her hand and said, "Xinning, take my reverse scale. Adilide is still young. Let him live...at least let the children know who their father is."

Adilide was confused as he listened: "Dias! What are you crazy about? The reverse scale is the dragon's lifeblood. Taking it out means death!"

“I know.” Dias turned calmly to his nephew, “but I owe you this.”
