Xi Lan led Hua Rongyi and his group to the Merfolk Palace, where Chi Yi, Kong Bai, Bai Shu, and Lu Qiu were already waiting.

Once everyone was together, the problem was perfectly resolved.

Xi Lan approached the Merman King Xi Fu and asked with concern, "Brother, are you alright?"

Xi Fu's stern expression softened slightly. He patted her head and said, "Thanks to the reinforcements you brought, my brother and the clansmen are all safe and sound."

Upon sensing Xi Lan's cultivation level, his expression suddenly changed, turning extremely grim. He asked, "What happened to your cultivation level? Where is your inner core?"

Xi Lan's eyes darted away; it was a bit embarrassing to talk about.

But in the end, under the duress of Xi Fu's gaze, she told him everything.

Xi Fu's eyes were filled with coldness. That traitor Chun Li dared to treat his sister like this. He would definitely make her experience a fate worse than death.

With a pained expression, he said to Xi Lan, "I will avenge you. You should entertain your friends first. I have some things to take care of right now."

Xi Lan nodded obediently, "Okay, brother, you go ahead and get busy." After saying that, she turned around and led Chi Yi and the others to her residence. Her place was very large, with many empty rooms, more than enough for Chi Yi and the other eight people.

After Chi Yi and the others were settled in, they rested in their respective rooms. After all, they had been busy for so long and their minds had been tense, so they needed to relax.

After arranging all the affairs, the Merman King Xi Fu prepared a banquet to thank Chi Yi and the others after they had rested, which they naturally accepted.

Chi Yi, Hua Rongyi, Kong Bai, Ling Lili, Yun Fan, Bai Shu, Jin Haoyu, and Lu Qiu sat on one side of the banquet, eating spiritual fruits that could only be found at the bottom of the sea while watching the merman dancers dancing in the middle. It was a unique experience, after all, these were considered special products of the merman race.

The Merman King Xifu smiled and raised his cup: "Thank you all for your help. I would like to offer you a toast."

In terms of age, Chi Yi and the others are considered juniors and should be addressed as "young friends." However, they are Xi Lan's friends, and Xi Lan is his younger sister. Therefore, Xi Fu feels it is more intimate to address them as peers.

Chi Yi and the others raised their cups and drank the spirit wine in one gulp.

"Humans and merfolk have always been friends, it's only right, Merfolk King, you're too kind," Hua Rongyi replied with a smile.

The Merfolk King smiled and said, "It is truly remarkable that you fellow Daoists possess such strength at such a young age. If you have the time in the future, you are welcome to visit my Merfolk clan."

The group smiled and thanked the Merman King for his kindness. They ate and chatted in a harmonious atmosphere.

However, at that moment, a merman guard hurried over and whispered a few words in the merman king's ear, and the merman king's expression instantly turned serious.

"Fellow Daoists, I apologize! Something has suddenly come up that requires my personal attention. I must take my leave now," the Merman King said helplessly as he stood up.

Then he said to Xi Chong beside him, "Chong'er, you entertain our distinguished guests."

Xi Chong respectfully replied, "Yes, Father."

After apologizing to everyone again, the Merman King left with his guards.

Xi Lan came to Xi Chong's side and asked curiously, "Nephew, did you hear what happened?"

Xi Chong looked at his aunt, who was even younger than him, and said helplessly, "Aunt, go ask Father later. I didn't hear anything." Even if he did hear it, he couldn't just say it in front of so many people.

Xi Lan gave him a disdainful look, then walked away and went to Chi Yi and the others.

"Chi Yi, I'll show you around here tomorrow. Just tell me what you like, and I'll pay for it!" Xi Lan said, patting her chest.
