Chapter 347 Protecting Each Other
Chapter 347 Protecting Each Other
At the entrance to the secret realm of the mermaid royal family, Chu You held Situ Yuner's "birth stone" that no longer glowed in his hand, took a deep breath, and stepped into the barrier like sea waves.
After a gentle energy rippled through him, Chu You felt his body lighten and raised his eyebrows slightly.
The secret place of the mermaids in the seabed, there is no sea water around?
In the center of the secret realm, a palace cleverly constructed of coral and pearl shells stands tall, emitting a soft and mysterious light.
Around the palace, exotic land plants coexist with exotic flowers and plants in the sea. They absorb the unique spiritual power of the secret realm and bloom with colors rarely seen in the world.
Chu Youshuang walked into the palace and found that the gemstones on the ground gave off a warm luster. The walls were carved with stories of the royal family of the mermaids from past dynasties. Each of them revealed the weight and glory of history.
In the center of the hall, an ancient crystal throne stands, carrying the deepest secrets and power of the mermaid clan.
But Chu You didn't see Situ Yuner.
Chu You just heard from the Mermaid King and Mermaid Queen that when a mermaid reaches adulthood, they will be led here, sit in front of the crystal seat with their eyes closed, and have a soul dialogue and awakening.
What about the little Situ Ren?
"Little Situ? Little Situ!..."
Chu You searched around the hall for a whole circle, but still couldn't find Situ Yuner. A little anxious, he tried to communicate with Hong Meng:
"What's going on? The entire secret realm is so small. Could it be that Little Situ has been made invisible?"
Hong Meng: "Master, can you go and take a look at that crystal stand?"
Chu You followed his instructions and came to the crystal throne. He walked around it several times but still didn't find anything unusual. When he was about to leave, he saw a faint flash of colorful light on the seat of the throne.
Chu You thought he was dazzled, so he rubbed his eyes, but found nothing. He reached out and touched it suspiciously.
As soon as he touched it, he was sucked in directly!
With a loud "bang", Chu You was smashed heavily onto the white jade floor that looked like an altar.
Fortunately, her physical cultivation had reached the Ascension Realm, so she didn't get hurt.
But this posture of lying face down and with legs spread out really damaged her image.
She was praying not to be seen when a familiar yet uncertain voice reached her ears:
"Chu You?"
Chu You's body stiffened, and the next moment, he spun around in an extremely cool posture, trying to save his image.
Unexpectedly, when his body had just spun halfway in the air, he fell onto the jade slab again with a "bang".
Fortunately, this time he was lying face up, still with his arms and legs spread out.
"Chu You!"
Situ Yuner was so distressed that she even forgot to ask why Chu You was here. She wanted to go over and help him, but she was lying there unable to move, so she could only comfort him softly:
"As long as one's cultivation has not yet reached the level of Immortal, the altar of the merman tribe will be able to restrain them and prevent them from flying."
"You didn't tell me earlier!"
Chu You was exhausted and fell again in vain. Didn’t she have any dignity?
Situ Yuner opened her mouth, but ultimately did not refute Chu You.
He felt embarrassed and finally realized why Chu You appeared here. There was a gleam in his sea-blue eyes and a suspicious blush appeared on his fair cheeks, but he remained silent and secretly glanced at her from time to time.
What scares me most is that the air suddenly becomes quiet.
Chu You didn't know what to say.
They are like two people who are both familiar and strangers, and are far from the stage of communicating with each other!
At this moment, more than a dozen tall and mighty mermaid figures suddenly appeared around the altar, each with a look of surprise on their faces.
The one at the center asked in a deep voice:
"Situ Yuner, is she the one you sacrificed your soul and chastity to?
Why didn't you bring her in before?
Do you know that if she had come in a quarter of an hour later, you would have suffered the consequences of sacrificial atonement?"
"She doesn't know about this! This is all my wishful thinking, it has nothing to do with her!"
Situ Yuner was afraid that Chu You would receive the same punishment, so she quickly took all the responsibility on herself.
In return, he got a cold snort from the shadow:
"My mermaid royal family is so noble, yet we have someone like you who willingly offered sacrifice, and even secretly?
What's the point of keeping you!"
"and many more!"
Although Chu You couldn't move, his voice was full of energy and he quickly spoke out to stop him:
"The situation was critical and he was trying to save me.
Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. You mermaid royals, don’t you understand this?"
The leading mermaid phantom became even more angry:
"You knew he saved you, yet you waited until now to enter the secret realm. It's clear you're not a responsible person!
They should all be punished!"
Before he finished speaking, those shadows were unwilling to give Chu You and Situ Yuner any chance to explain.
In an instant, dozens of dark blue halos shot out from their hands like lightning, bombarding Chu You and Situ Yuner directly.
"careful!"
Situ Yuner didn't know where such a huge force suddenly burst out from. She broke free from the restraints on her body in an instant, jumped up without hesitation, and rushed in front of Chu You at an extremely fast speed, using her body to protect Chu You tightly under her.
Because this series of actions happened so quickly, the postures of the two people at this moment looked extremely ambiguous.
Chu You couldn't help but blush with shyness a second ago, but just a second later, her brows were furrowed tightly.
Because she suddenly smelled an extremely strong and pungent smell of blood!
Chu You subconsciously lowered her eyes and glanced downwards, and the scene that immediately came into her sight made her heart tighten suddenly.
It turned out that on the altar, which was originally as white as jade and as smooth as a mirror, a long trail of blood was slowly flowing.
And this blood was caused by the serious injury to Situ Yuner's beautiful seven-colored fish tail when she tried to break free from the restraints!
And his back was covered in blood because he had to block the attack for Chu You!
In just a moment, Chu You's eyes turned red, and the hostility in his body surged:
"You bunch of indiscriminate guys, could you please listen to what I'm saying before you take action?"
"For an ant like you, and someone like him who doesn't value the royal bloodline of the mermaids, there's no need to say more!"
Leaving you alive in this world would be a disgrace to our mermaid royal family!"
"That's unreasonable!"
Chu You was really angry.
When Mingming came in, the Mermaid King and the Mermaid Queen repeatedly assured him that as long as both of them entered, the remaining soul of the Mermaid Immortal in the secret realm would forgive him.
After all, more than a hundred years ago, there were several cases similar to Situ Yuner's, and they all came out safely.
Why is it that when it comes to Situ Yuner and her, it is considered "unforgivable"?
and many more!
Was it something that happened about a hundred years ago?
The time point almost coincided with the battle between the cultivation world and the half-demon clan.
What do the immortals in the fairy world want to do?
Clean up the world of cultivation, the world of demons, and the geniuses in the sea area connecting the world of immortals and the world of cultivation?
Seeing that the dark blue attack was about to fall again, Chu You spun around with all his might, this time protecting Situ Yuner firmly under him.
Because she couldn't protect his long fish tail, she temporarily took out the defensive net that Nangong Yan had made for her from the mustard bag and covered both of them at the same time.
