I woke up to find myself as the villain's older sister.

Ugh.

Sighing inwardly, Yun Qingyi turned her gaze back to the mermaid princess, feeling a little comforted.

At least they were looking in the right direction. Even if the key to getting out wasn't with the mermaid princess, it should still be closely related to her.

The mermaid princess felt uneasy under Yun Qingyi's gaze, seeing that Yun Qingyi really wasn't going to tell her what was going on.

She pursed her lips, deciding not to press the matter further.

She wasn't stupid. Listening to their scattered words, she could roughly guess that in their minds, she had two abilities!

With just a little thought, the mermaid princess was overjoyed. Although she didn't know where her second ability came from, it was a major breakthrough for their mermaid clan.

If the reasons could be understood and the conditions could be used to their advantage, the attack capabilities of the Merfolk would be greatly enhanced.

In this way, the merfolk will no longer be bullied and exploited by other sea creatures.

Looking at the mermaid princess's smiling face, Yun Qingyi knew perfectly well what she was thinking.

Somewhat speechless, he said, "Are you... going to tell us what kind of help you need?"

"Speak, speak!" Upon hearing this, the mermaid princess nodded hurriedly, her smile fading.

When it comes to serious matters, the merman princess is always very serious. "I told you before that the energy trench is gradually depleting and is preparing to close."

"Mm," Yun Qingyi replied calmly.

"Therefore, you should also know that if you do not leave the Western Sea, when the catastrophe comes, none of the sea creatures will be able to escape it."

"Hmm." Yun Qingyi responded faintly, "I roughly know what you're going to do."

"You want us to help your merfolk clan leave the Western Sea, is that it?" Yun Qingyi asked.

Upon hearing this, the mermaid princess's eyes suddenly lit up. "As expected of a senior!"

The mermaid princess naturally changed her form of address, her eyes filled with adoration.

He initially saved these people out of kindness, but later, after realizing they were not simple people, he genuinely wanted to take advantage of them.

In retrospect, her previous thoughts were quite ridiculous.

How could someone as powerful as the seniors possibly fall for the tricks of a mere mermaid?

If it weren't for the fact that her seniors also had their own agendas, she might have already disappeared from this world.

However, if she had to do it all over again, even if it wasn't these seniors who fell into the trench, she would have other ideas.

She was truly at her wit's end. She had searched for every sea creature she could find regarding the migration of the merfolk, but not a single one was willing to help them.

There are countless people who despise the merfolk as a burden.

Compared to other sea creatures, the merfolk are nothing more than beautiful bodies.

The journey to the South China Sea is long and fraught with danger, so it's understandable that other sea creatures are unwilling to help take them along.

But if they don't migrate to the South China Sea, how will their entire merfolk survive?

If they can't even handle the crisis along the South China Sea route, how could they possibly survive this catastrophe that forces all sea creatures to migrate?

The most fatal flaw was that her father, the emperor, was initially full of enthusiasm for the relocation, but after a period of preparation, he actually gave up and even tried to replenish the energy lost at the bottom of the Western Sea.

God knows how shocked she was; it was absolutely impossible!

Moreover, her father, who used to love her the most, actually decided to give himself to Tuso as a companion just for Tuso's little treasure!

He knew perfectly well how Tuso had bullied, framed, and tried to control her, yet he chose to forget the pain she had suffered and gave her to Tuso for the sake of that little treasure.

This is something she absolutely cannot accept, and it's why she's so anxious to find someone who can help them out of this predicament.

She would rather die accidentally while searching for him than go back and face the fact that she was going to become partners with that devil.

Thinking this, the mermaid princess's gaze towards Yun Qingyi and the others became much firmer: "Please, seniors, help our mermaid clan."

If she could successfully migrate to the South China Sea, perhaps she wouldn't have had to become partners with Tuso.
