Chapter 2411: Something Is Wrong With You

Forget about the monsters, even the Mermaid Queen was a bit stunned. This was the Dragon Palace; it was all the way in the depths of the ocean! There was water everywhere, so how could there possibly be fire?

But they all still looked in the direction of the source of the sound out of the corners of their eyes. Sure enough, there were flames raging around Mojard’s residence.

The monsters’ eyes almost popped out of their sockets. Was there something wrong with the world today?

Mojard was dumbfounded. However, after a moment of shock, he reacted to what was going on. Any flames that could burn so ferociously in the Dragon Palace were definitely no ordinary fire. Did the Mermaid Queen still have other companions? Or maybe this was the appearance of some extraordinary treasure!

While Mojard was feeling stunned, the Mermaid Queen seized the chance to avoid his lethal attack.

Mojard didn’t chase after her, and instead looked in the direction of the flames. His eyes blazed with desire. After all, the flame was really special. Anything that could burn at the very depths of the Dragon Palace had to be one of the legendary true flames.

When he saw the white lotuses vaguely manifesting within the flames, he immediately became happy. Could this be the legendary White Lotus Flame?!

My strength will immediately improve tremendously if I can obtain this. I might even be able to settle things with the Monster Lord then!

Once he realized that, he immediately gave the order to continue attacking the Mermaid Queen. Meanwhile, he rushed toward the blazing palace. He knew his current forces were strong enough that even if they couldn't capture the Mermaid Queen, keeping her from escaping was something they could do. Once he obtained the White Lotus Flame, he would come back and deal with her properly.

He quickly rushed to the burning palace. When he sensed the quality of the flames up close, his excitement grew even stronger. Indeed, it was the White Lotus Flame! But where was the flame source?

He surrounded himself with several defensive skills, then entered the palace to search for the White Lotus Flame source. But his expression quickly changed. He found that it wasn’t a White Lotus Flame without an owner, but rather had been deliberately released by someone!

“No!” he cried as he quickly rushed back out.

...

As soon as Mojard reentered the palace, the courtyard suddenly became a mess.

An enormous stampede of seahorses rushed out from who knew where! They weren’t the pocket-sized ones from the surface; as a genuine sea species, they were much larger. They were the most commonly used mounts used in the Ocean races’ wars!

Over a hundred outstanding steeds ran rampant within the courtyard as if they had been frightened badly. With so many seahorses rushing in, the monsters could no longer maintain their formation.

The Mermaid Queen was surprised and happy to see this.

Is this something those two guards who served the Peacock Princess did?

But she quickly dismissed that guess. The two guards had been injured too badly. Even though she'd treated them a bit, that was only enough for them to move on their own. They’d already lost their fighting ability. They couldn't possibly create such a huge disturbance. Besides, the flaming palace was clearly caused by an extraordinary source.

Could it be the Dragon King?

But he didn’t know that I was coming here, so why would he come to save me?

Besides, with his cowardly nature, if he knew I'd antagonized the monsters, there’s no way he would come here.

Just then, an unknown, yet strangely familiar voice called out. “What are you still standing around with a stupid look for? Hurry and run!”

As a huge group of seahorses passed by the Mermaid Queen, someone leaped onto one of the seahorses and grabbed her hand, pulling her onto it as well. The two of them were quickly obscured by the huge group of seahorses. They seized the chance to flee far away.

The Mermaid Queen had never ridden a seahorse with a man alone before, let alone being carried while doing so. But since this was a matter of life and death, she didn’t really mind it. Instead, she turned her head around to look at the man behind her out of curiosity.

“It’s you?”

It was actually that foolish guard!

Zu An smiled and said, “Since I already made an agreement with you, of course I needed to fulfill my mission. How can I just receive the benefits without doing the work?”

The Mermaid Queen felt warm inside. Even though this foolish guard wasn’t all that skilled, he still had a bit of loyalty. Not only did he care a lot about his sister, he'd even risked his life to save her. Comparatively, the Dragon King was clearly really strong, and yet he didn’t dare to go against the monsters; what a complete coward!

He can’t even compare to this guard.

The way she looked at him softened a bit when she realized that. Meanwhile, she didn’t even notice that she subconsciously didn’t even want to call him foolish anymore. How could someone not be moved when they were saved by another from the brink of death?

Just then, Mojard rushed over. When he saw what happened, he immediately shouted, “This place forbids es...”

When he was midway through his final word, however, Zu An suddenly turned around and called out with a smile, “What you lookin’ at?”

“I’m looking at you, shithead!” Mojard couldn't finish his soulspeak, feeling compelled to say those words for some mysterious reason. He was extremely alarmed.

Meanwhile, the monsters were confused.

What kind of idiotic performance are the two of you putting on right now?

While they were stunned, Zu An quickly brought the Mermaid Queen out of the Four Way Palace.

Mojard’s awkwardness quickly disappeared. He stared at his subordinates and shouted, “What are you looking at? You can’t even deal with a single woman? Are you all going to just stand around?”

The monsters cursed inwardly.

It was clearly you who ‘personally’ let them go, so why are you getting mad at us?

But none of them dared to say anything and they quickly chased after the Mermaid Queen.

...

Meanwhile, Zu An and the Mermaid Queen rushed out of the Four Way Palace. The Mermaid Queen snapped out of her daze and grabbed him, saying, “The seahorses won’t be able to escape from the Incestuous King’s pursuit. Follow me.”

She grabbed Zu An’s hand, and then with a kick, she leaped off the seahorse. Zu An saw her sway her hips gently, and the two of them instantly traveled a kilometer. Even he was amazed at the wonders of this movement skill. It was almost on the level of Grandgale!

When he saw her waist sway like the ocean waves, Zu An couldn't help but remember the Shang sisters, too. It seemed the Mermaid race really had incredibly beautiful waists, and they were all really soft. He had only hugged Shang Liuyu before, but Shang Hongyu he'd thoroughly experienced. The way she'd sat on him and swayed her hips was a truly unforgettable experience.

Ahhhh, what kind of nonsense am I thinking about right now?

Zu An’s face heated up. Just then, the Mermaid Queen turned around and gave him a strange look, exclaiming, “You’re thinking something bad right now!”

Zu An was stunned.

You can even tell something like that?

He almost looked down to see if his little bro had sold him out, but that wasn’t it at all!

As if seeing through his confusion, the Mermaid Queen harrumphed and said, “I am extremely sensitive to the changes in expression of the men around me. I always know if someone has pure thoughts, or if they are thinking dirty things.”

There were too many men who had tried to get close to her over the years. If she couldn't tell whether those people's intentions were good or bad, then considering how beautiful she was, she probably would’ve already been completely swallowed up a long time ago.

Before, she had always hidden her identity from this guard, knowing that he didn’t know her true identity. Additionally, she hadn't sensed anything bad from him anyway, which was why she had always felt relaxed around him. But now, she sensed a bit of lustful thoughts from him.

Strangely, however, she didn’t get angry at all and actually found it a bit laughable.

This guy is actually attracted to this ordinary face of mine?
