Qin Yunchuan stretched out his hand to signal everyone to stop, and watched the black shadow stop dozens of feet away. The three-pointed sea stirring fork in his hand shone a little starlight, illuminating the darkness in front of him.
"Stop! Who are you, how dare you break into our clan's forbidden area!"
Through that bit of cold light, Qin Yunchuan and others stared intently. I saw that the black figure in front of me was a woman, wearing a half-body armor made of unknown fish scales on her upper body, and a fish tail on her lower body. Come to think of it, she is from the Jiaoren clan just like Coral.
"Aunt Xue, it's me." After a low cry, Coral took out a pearl from her arms. After rubbing it gently a few times, a faint light lit up, revealing her face.
"Coral? You're back!" The woman whom Coral called Aunt Xue put away the three-pointed sea stirring fork in surprise and swam quickly to Coral's side.
After looking her up and down, he asked: "Where have you been these days! Ever since you suddenly disappeared five days ago, grandma has been going crazy with anxiety. She personally took us and covered the nearby sea area. Looked through it all.”
"I...I...I was looking for perlite powder at the beach, but I was suddenly attacked by a group of mysterious people. After being injured by them, I fled all the way to the shoal. Later, I fell into a coma due to serious injuries, and my identity is unknown... …”
"What happened next? You weren't hurt, were you?" Aunt Xue asked closely.
"Later... later..." Coral lowered her eyes, not daring to look into Aunt Xue's concerned eyes: "Later, when I woke up, I found myself in a room. It turned out that I was killed by someone from Lingxiao Pavilion after I passed out. A disciple was saved."
The Jiaoren clan has a clan motto and is not allowed to have emotional relationships with humans. Although Coral is determined to elope with Chen An. But now, Chen An was poisoned by the fish egg cordyceps. If he didn't have the Abyss Colorful Beads and used his clan's techniques to eliminate the poison, he would have died of the poison in less than three days.
Coral had no choice but to risk his life and bring Chen An back here to ask for help from her grandma. But now, if she tells the truth, she will definitely explode in the Jiaoren clan!
In that case, let alone begging her grandma to save Chen An, she might not even be able to pass the test of Aunt Xue.
Aunt Xue frowned slightly and said, "Did you be rescued by the disciples of Lingxiao Pavilion? Then... did he discover your identity?"
"Hmm..." Coral's voice was as small as a mosquito's: "But, aunt, don't worry. Chen... Chen An is a very nice person. After he helped me heal my injury, he promised to send me back to the clan. .”
"I still have faith in the character and character of the people in Lingxiao Pavilion. If it were Guiyun Villa instead, you would probably be in trouble this time!"
Living in Beiluo Star Continent, although the Jiaoren clan rarely interacts with humans, they have a certain understanding of Guiyun Villa and Lingxiao Pavilion.
Lingxiao Pavilion is good. From the pavilion master Ling Xiaotian to the disciples under the sect, they are all kind-hearted people. Not only does he help and protect the ordinary people of Beiluo Star Continent with his own cultivation, but he also takes good care of other races living in Beiluo Star Continent. He is truly worthy of the name of a famous sect of the righteous way.
On the other hand, Guiyun Villa is exactly the opposite. Although he has the reputation of being one of the nine sects of the righteous path, the temperament of the village owner Murong Zhuo is not so easy to get along with. Even his disciples are mostly domineering people.
Therefore, Aunt Xue said this after hearing that Coral was rescued by a disciple of Lingxiao Pavilion.
"Okay, now that you've returned safely, that's the best thing. I'll take you back to the palace and report this matter to grandma. Firstly, she can put her mind at ease. Secondly, send someone to find that person secretly. Chen An, thank him for saving you. As for the third one, we need to send more people to find out who suddenly attacked you!"
As Aunt Xue said, she was about to pick up Coral and go to the secluded place of the Jiaoren clan together. However, Hualu took a step back: "Aunt Xue, this time when Hualu comes back, there are other things I want to ask grandma for..."
Hualu said, pointing to Mu Jingyu and others who were more than a hundred feet away: "In the morning, when Chen An was sending me back, he suddenly met a disciple from Guiyun Villa. In order to protect Hualu, he was shot Fish eggs and cordyceps are highly toxic.”
Hearing the coral mentioning Chen An, Mu Jingyu swam over quickly, carrying him, Qin Yunchuan and others on his back.
Aunt Xue has always been concerned about the situation of the coral and did not notice the few people in the distance. Seeing the seven people swimming over, they immediately became alert. The three-pointed sea stirring fork that had been put away was revealed again, pointing at Mu Jingyu and others from a distance.
"Coral, didn't you say that only Chen An from Lingxiao Pavilion saved you! Why did so many people appear? Do you know their origins?"
The Jiaoren clan has always been hidden in the depths of the North Sea. Its location is extremely secretive and cannot be easily known to others. Seeing so many people show up now really made Aunt Xue nervous.
Coral hurriedly explained: "Don't worry, aunt, they are all good people. Besides, after Chen An and I were in danger, it was the six of them who came to the rescue and drove away the four disciples of Guiyun Villa."
Coral briefly recounted how the two met the disciples from Guiyun Villa and how they were rescued by Mu Jingyu and others. It's just that the things about her and Chen An were deliberately concealed.
As he spoke, he secretly winked at Mu Jingyu and others, hoping that they would understand what he meant and not expose his lies.
Everyone immediately understood and helped hide the affair between Coral and Chen An.
Aunt Xue still did not let down her guard. She looked at Mu Jingyu and the others and said, "Coral, even if they rescue you and Chen An, they can't bring so many people back to the clan. If grandma finds out, she must teach you a lesson." You can’t!”
Mu Jingyu took a step forward and explained: "This... aunt, it was not Sister Huan who brought us to Nobles on purpose. It was actually Brother Chen An's injury that was too serious, and Sister Huan couldn't bring him back alone, so we were almost People help.”
Mu Jingyu was not stupid enough to reveal that he actually had another purpose. We haven't met the leader of the Jiaoren clan yet. If we say it rashly, who knows if Aunt Xue, who is obviously hard to talk to, will drive away a few people with a weapon.
"Is the injury too serious?" Aunt Xue said to Mu Jingyu: "Please young hero, please bring Chen An over and let me see how he is doing."
Mu Jingyu followed his instructions and swam to Aunt Xue with Chen An on his back, and let her check Chen An's injuries in person.
Coral also came closer and became even more anxious when she saw Chen An's closed eyes. At that moment, regardless of the difference between men and women, he opened Chen An's back, pointed to the wound on it and said: "Aunt, Brother Chen is indeed poisoned by the poison of fish roe and cordyceps. If you don't believe it, go and see it yourself Let's see."
Aunt Xue didn't answer. She first looked at Chen An's back carefully, then touched the raised flesh with her hand, and nodded slightly.
"It is true that I was poisoned by Cordyceps roe...but..." Aunt Xue didn't finish her words, but she muttered in her heart: "Cordyceps roe is a poisonous weed deep in the North Sea, and it is usually eaten by their beautiful women and people. Only the two clans of sharks have them. Even in Guiyun Villa, there are only some people with advanced cultivation. According to Huo Hualong’s description, the four disciples of Guiyun Villa are all low-status outer sects. Disciple, how come they have fish eggs and cordyceps?"
Before Aunt Xue could figure it out, Coral anxiously urged: "Auntie, please hurry up and take us to see grandma to detoxify and heal Brother Chen!"
Aunt Xue had no choice but to not delve into the matter. She comforted Coral and said, "Since Chen An was injured while trying to save you, we can't ignore it. I will take you to see grandma and ask her to treat Chen An." .”
After Aunt Xue finished speaking, she stretched out her hand to summon two beauties hiding in the dark, and ordered her to take Chen An and prepare to return to the clan with Coral.
When Mu Jingyu saw Aunt Xue's intention, he made it clear that he didn't want them to return to the clan, so he stretched out his hand to protect Chen An's expression, and sneered a few times: "Auntie, Brother Chen is too heavy! Let me see the two of you. Both Sisters and Sisters are women, but they can’t lift Brother Chen. Why don’t we, brothers and sisters, help you carry him there.”
"Huh?" Aunt Xue was obviously taken aback, and said with a frown: "Young heroes, our Jiaoren clan is grateful for your kindness in rescuing us, and we will definitely repay you in the future. It's just that our clan has been living in seclusion in the depths of the North Sea. Let outsiders know. So... please just stay here."
Hearing Aunt Xue's obvious rejection, Mu Jingyu, Qin Yunchuan and others looked at each other, not knowing what to do. They came to get the colorful beads of the abyss. They finally found the shark's place. If they couldn't get in, wouldn't their journey be in vain?
However, Aunt Xue had clearly rejected a few people, and if she forced her way in, she was afraid that she would offend Aunt Xue in front of her.
Just when the two of them didn't know what to do, Su Yingying snorted coldly and said: "Huh, they didn't even let us in through the gate, so they just let us go back and said we would repay something in the future! I see, it's just talk. .”
Several people did not expect that Su Yingying, who had always been peaceful, would suddenly say these words, and they all murmured in their hearts.
Only Shen Mengdie could see an inexplicable meaning in Su Yingying's eyes. After thinking about it for a moment, I understood what she meant. Obviously, he made it clear that he was unwilling to join the Jiaoren clan, but secretly, it was a bit of a mockery. The purpose was to provoke Aunt Xue so that she would have to take everyone in because of her face.
After thinking about it, Shen Mengdie also pretended to be angry, took Zhou Yan with one hand and said, "Senior Sister Su is right. Since they don't welcome us, why are we still here? Why don't we go back to Huishan City and find someone first? A place where you can eat and drink a lot.”
Looking at Su Yingying and Shen Mengdie who were about to leave, Hualu became anxious and quickly stood in front of the two of them, opening his arms to stop them: "You two sisters, don't be angry, Aunt Xue has the important responsibility of guarding the clan, so she can't do it easily." No outsiders will be allowed in. I will go and beg her to take you back to the clan."
Listening to the cynicism of the two women, Aunt Xue remained silent. Coral said it right. He has a heavy responsibility, but he cannot let outsiders return to the clan easily. What's more, she still doesn't know the true identities of the six people in front of her.
But if they were allowed to leave like this, it would appear that the Jiaoren clan was not repaying their kindness. Just when she didn't know it was a good time, Hualu came up and begged: "Auntie, don't worry, they are not bad people." Huanhu begged aunt, for the sake of them rescuing me, let them into the clan. If it is true If anything happens, I am willing to bear the responsibility in front of grandma!"
After taking a deep breath, Aunt Xue finally relaxed: "Okay, for the sake of them rescuing you, I'll make an exception."
Aunt Xue said, turned around to look at Mu Jingyu and the others and said: "It's just that the location of my clan is extremely secret. A few young heroes can follow me in. However, you must obey my orders and do not move around at will. Wait for my reply. Grandma, I will thank you personally and leave our clan immediately."
Mu Jingyu suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and nodded hurriedly: "Don't worry, aunt, we just went in to ask for a cup of hot tea to warm ourselves up, we definitely won't move around randomly."
At the same time, he secretly thought in his heart: "I agree to her request first, and after I get in, I can then find a way to ask the grandma of the shark clan to get the seven-colored beads of the abyss."
Mu Jingyu now is no longer what he used to be. He told lies without even blinking his eyebrows.
Aunt Xue nodded and agreed. After pressing a mechanism on the cliff with one hand, a deep stone door was revealed. He ordered the other two beauties to guard the clan gate, and then led Mu Jingyu and others into the cave on the cliff.
