Who wants to learn sewing skills while dating?

Dragons are born to be able to breathe water, but elves can't.

Chu Jun planned to set up a barrier around himself so that he could breathe under the sea, but the downside was that this barrier would also prevent Mo Heng from getting close.

Mo Heng naturally disagreed. After thinking for a while, he took off the earring he had been wearing on his left ear.

"Why did you take it off?" Chu Jun now understood the significance of the earring. The scales on the earring were Mo Heng's weak spot. Removing them would be like peeling off the scales alive, exposing his weakness to his opponent.

Mo Heng remained calm after having his reverse scale pulled out, as if he didn't feel the piercing pain.

He strung the scales together with a rope, making them into a necklace, and squeezed it around Chu Yun's neck: "My scales can help you breathe under the sea. Besides, you are my partner, so what's wrong with you wearing my reverse scales?"

The scales would change temperature and color depending on Mo Heng's mood. Chu Jun reached out and touched the warm scales, and his heart also felt warm.

Compared to the tranquility and calmness of the East China Sea under the rule of the Dragon Clan, the currents in the South China Sea appear to be extremely turbulent and full of unknown dangers.

Here, giant beasts roam rampant. They are huge and extremely ferocious. They stay in their own territories and rarely fight each other or provoke the mermaids.

During the half hour that Chu Jun had been diving, he had witnessed several thrilling scenes of sea monsters hunting.

The blood spread in the sea water and gradually merged with it. This cruel law of nature is everywhere in the underwater world.

Chu Jun and Mo Heng came to visit the mermaid tribe with good intentions, so there was naturally no need to hide their figures. They swam towards the Mermaid City holding hands as if they were strolling in a park.

Just as the two were enjoying their sweet world of two, the sea suddenly surged violently, and a figure swam in front of them like a storm in the sea, rolling up huge waves.

It was a beautiful mermaid with a purple tail. Her tail was thick and her upper body was muscular, clearly no mere show-off or half-assed beauty. The mermaid's eyes were filled with wariness and hostility, and the trident in her hand gleamed coldly in the sunlight, as if ready to deliver a fatal blow at any moment.

"Who are you? Why did you trespass into our territory?" The mermaid's voice was clear, with a hint of oppression. Her eyes were fixed on Chu Yun and Mo Heng, and the scales on her tail stood up like a warrior's armor.

Facing the mermaid's questioning, Chu Jun pulled Mo Heng, who was standing in front of him, and replied in a calm and gentle voice: "We have no ill intentions. We are here to ask for the help of the mermaid wizard." There was no hostility in his eyes.

The elf's naturally pure and clean face made him look particularly harmless, and the mermaid did not sense any hostility from Chu Jun.

However, the subtle pressure from Mo Heng made her alert again.

The mermaid's eyes flickered back and forth between Chu Yun and Mo Heng, as if she was weighing the credibility of Chu Yun's words.

Facing the mermaid's hesitation, Chu Jun waved his hand and released a touch of magic to show it to the mermaid.

It was a pure and warm power that seemed to be able to penetrate the darkness of the seabed, bringing a ray of light and hope, making people involuntarily relax their vigilance.

"Your magic..." There was a hint of doubt in the mermaid's voice. She could feel that Chu Yun's magic had some mysterious resonance with the power of their mermaid clan.

This resonance confused her and also made her curious about Chu Yun's identity.

While the mermaid was speaking, the young fishman who had been following her also rushed over.

They cautiously surrounded Chu Yun and the other person, and only then did they take a good look at their appearance.

Chu Yun's long silver hair fluttered in the sea like waves under the moonlight. His long and pointed ears were the hallmarks of the elves, but even humans could disguise them, so the mermaids would not believe them.

What made them let down their guard was the magic released from the elves' hands.

They exchanged puzzled glances and whispered, "Elves?"

"I am Ai Luo, the king of the elves." Chu Jun's voice was filled with unquestionable majesty. The magic power in his hands condensed and transformed into the shape of a sacred tree, which was the totem of the Elf King.

"Ailuo" is the real name of the Elf King. Chu Jun naturally has to say this name to others.

When Mo Heng heard Chu Jun's words, he looked at the young man in confusion, but did not say much. He just lowered his eyes, as if thinking about something.

When the mermaids saw the totem in Chu Yun's hand, they finally let down their guard.

Totems were symbols of a race's faith and could not be easily forged with magic. Therefore, even if the elf before them was not the true Elf King, he was definitely a powerful being, and bringing him before their queen was a good idea.

"Welcome, Lord Ai Luo. We apologize for not being able to meet you from afar." The mermaid princess, Ai Li, with purple hair and purple tail, bowed to Chu Jun in respect. "We have been harassed by humans frequently in recent years, which is why we are so cautious. Please forgive us."

"Kyle, go inform the Queen." Ai Ai turned around and ordered.

They had originally planned to go to the coast, but now it seems that the plan has to be put on hold for the time being. The arrival of the Elf King is obviously more important.

I just don’t know why the Elf King came to find their wizard?

"Yes, sir." A young male mermaid responded and left. His figure moved lightly in the sea like a flash of blue lightning.

"Lord Ailo, please." Ellie led the way for Chu Yun, leading them through the winding coral reefs and heading deep into the mermaid tribe's territory.

------

The underwater world is dotted with pearls and shellfish, forming a gorgeous decoration for the mermaid palace.

Mermaids have always respected females, and Queen Osina is the strongest in the tribe and the last line of defense against foreign enemies.

Osina had not anticipated the sudden visit of the elves.

Like the mermaids, the elves were accustomed to living in seclusion and rarely interacted with other races. Even her ancestors had rarely seen elves.

The Elf King's visit undoubtedly stirred up waves in Osina's heart.

Led by Ai Li, Chu Yun and Mo Heng entered the Mermaid Palace. This palace was built of colored glaze, cleverly allowing natural light to penetrate the sea water and illuminate every corner.

Along the way, Chu Yun noticed that many of the mermaids were wary of the two outsiders, and curious glances were rare. Chu Yun thought to himself, "It seems the atmosphere in the mermaid tribe is indeed tense."

He couldn't help but wonder what the humans had done to the merpeople to make them so wary.

Entering the main hall, Chu Yun saw the queen sitting on the throne.

"Lord Ailo, nice to meet you. I am Osina, the 134th Queen of the Mermaid Tribe." Osina walked down from the throne and greeted Chu Jun. Her voice echoed in the palace, and her figure looked particularly majestic against the backdrop of the colored glaze.

"Nice to meet you, Lady Osina." Chu Jun nodded to Osina.

"Lord Ailo, please follow me to the reception room for a detailed discussion," Osina invited.

Chu Yun and Mo Heng followed Osina into the depths of the palace. Chu Yun noticed that Osina seemed to glance at Mo Heng several times.

Since entering the ocean, Mo Heng has kept a low profile, quietly following Chu Jun like a bodyguard.

The mermaids had not questioned Mo Heng's identity before, and Chu Jun was curious whether Osina recognized Mo Heng.

After taking her seat, Osina didn't beat around the bush and asked Mo Heng directly, "This sir must be the leader of the Dragon Clan, right?"

"Do you know me?" Mo Heng finally spoke. His voice was low and without a trace of tenderness towards Chu Jun, which made those who heard it feel a strong sense of oppression.

The lifespan of a mermaid is only a thousand years, and he hasn't left the island for ten thousand years. Logically, he and Osina should have never met before.

"No, our ancestors were fortunate enough to see you and recorded your appearance in the mermaid historical records. I saw it by accident," Osina explained.

Mo Heng has a vague memory of his past with the mermaid, which was ten thousand years ago.

On the contrary, as for the Elf King, Mo Heng remembered that he and Ailo had met once tens of thousands of years ago.
