Chapter 2411 - 2411 Love at First Sight?
2411 Love at First Sight?
Hence, the reason for the G.o.ddess of Mercys exceptional favoritism toward Lin Yuan, even to the extent of fighting Fifth Page Truth, was her desire to earn his affection. Did she intend to gain his love in order to evolve her bloodline?
With this thought in mind, all of Lin Yuans previous doubts suddenly made sense.
A sudden feeling of unease washed over Lin Yuan.
In the past, he had often questioned the motives behind the G.o.ddess of Mercys a.s.sistance.
If he discovered any needs the G.o.ddess of Mercy had, he wouldnt hesitate to offer his help.
But if what she desired was his love, Lin Yuan would be unable to fulfill her request.
Light Green Umber eagerly awaited Lin Yuans response after her speech. However, he remained silent, refusing to acknowledge her attempt to recruit him.
Lin Yuan had plans to a.s.sert his control over the mermaid species in the future, with the six emperor-cla.s.s mermaids becoming his subordinates.
If he were to join Light Green Umbers faction now, it would hinder his future management of the mermaid species. The other five emperor-cla.s.s mermaids would likely voice their objections.
There was no need for him to engage in something that would create complications for him in the future.
Ordinarily, Light Green Umber would have exploded with anger if her offer received no response. Strangely, she felt no trace of displeasure at that moment. In fact, even if this emperor-cla.s.s merman named Dark Blue refused to a.s.sist her, she was still willing to establish a connection with him.
Originally, River Creek should be the one leading the way to the meeting. But now that Light Green Umber had appeared unexpectedly, River Creek had no choice but to trail behind Light Green Umber. She did not dare to do anything that could even be perceived as crossing the line.
Light Green Umbers departure from the meeting and taking the initiative to usher this new emperor-cla.s.s merman would definitely perturb the other emperor-cla.s.s mermaids.
White Brocade slammed her tail forcefully on the table as she said, Light Green Umber is becoming more audacious! First, she asked for our help. Then, she started acting as though she deserved it and that it was only right for us to help her! We were willing to help Brilliant Gold because we werent aware of the exact situation in the Deep Chasm Sea Eye and had only intended to scout out the path. Regardless of what this new emperor-cla.s.s merman says, there is no way Im going to help Light Green Umber!
Previously, White Brocade had been unwilling to help Light Green Umber because the latters actions and methods did not sit right with her.
Red Beauty had always been on good terms with White Brocade. Light Green Umber had always been extremely arrogant when it came to new emperor-cla.s.s mermaids like herself.
From a personal standpoint, Red Beautys unwillingness to interact with Light Green Umber had been separate from her willingness to help her for the sake of progressing the entire mermaid species.
However, Light Green Umber not only angered her but also earned the fury of the core group of the entire mermaid species.
Red Beauty believed that it would not be bad for the mermaid species if Light Green Umber attained the New Thearchs Scale and became a thearch-cla.s.s mermaid.
When Light Green Umber had been present, Blue Umber had sided with her.
But now that Light Green Umber had left, there was no point in Blue Umber putting herself in opposition against the other emperor-cla.s.s mermaids for the sake of Light Green Umber. Thus, Blue Umber remained silent.
But if Light Green Umber later asked her what had happened, Blue Umber would still honestly relay the situation to her.
Blue Umber and Light Green Umber had always maintained a good relations.h.i.+p, and Blue Umber didnt want the mermaid community to be divided because of this situation.
Upon hearing White Brocade and Red Beautys remarks, Dazzling Silver let out a sigh.
While Light Green Umber was partially responsible for the current situation, Brilliant Gold also played a significant role.
Things might have been different if it had been anyone other than Brilliant Gold who rejected Light Green Umber. Light Green Umber had selflessly and wholeheartedly a.s.sisted Brilliant Gold in the past.
Light Green Umbers condition was the most severe among the injured, surpa.s.sing Dazzling Silvers injuries. She had nearly lost her life and spent over 2,000 years recovering before her wounds finally healed.
Uttering such words would undoubtedly hurt Light Green Umbers feelings.
She had done so much for Brilliant Gold throughout the years, and the latter regarded her as an equal.
As Dazzling Silver observed Brilliant Golds determined expression, she suddenly felt a wave of exhaustion wash over her.
At that moment, the door to the main hall was pushed open.
Given that Lin Yuan was at the front, he was the first one that Dazzling Silver spotted.
The seed of blind affection was having a weakness for beauty. Those who were drawn to looks never adhered to logic when they fell in love with someone. But once they encountered a target that caught their attention even more strongly, the previously seemingly deep feelings would dissipate and fade quickly.
His azure tail, long hair, and chiseled features immediately dominated her heart.
Dazzling Silver had unconditionally sided with Brilliant Gold and did everything she could to help Brilliant Gold enter the Deep Chasm Sea Eye so she could gain the opportunity to evolve her bloodline.
Now, Dazzling Silver was willing to do the same for Lin Yuan.
The other mermaids were equally stupefied when they glimpsed Lin Yuan. However, due to the rule that emperor-cla.s.s mermaids could not pair up with each other, all they felt for Lin Yuan was admiration.
Brilliant Gold was trying to come up with a way to persuade Lin Yuan and had no idea that Dazzling Silver, who was standing behind her, was plotting betrayal.
Dazzling Silver was the first to greet Lin Yuan, h.e.l.lo, you can call me Dazzling Silver. My bloodline is also pinnacle emperor-cla.s.s. I heard that you want to enter the Deep Chasm Sea Eye. Is this true?
Lin Yuan did not want to waste too much time with this group of emperor-cla.s.s mermaids.
Since every emperor-cla.s.s mermaid could enter the Deep Chasm Sea Eye, he did not need to continue mingling with these other emperor-cla.s.s mermaids. The more he said, the more likely he was to arouse suspicion.
There were no problems with his bloodline. But he would not be able to come up with anything if the topic turned to the secrets of mermaids.
Since Lin Yuan had been asked, he answered, I was in seclusion for almost 10,000 years. My only wish is to evolve my bloodline to thearch-cla.s.s. I dont need your help. I want to take a look at the Deep Chasm Sea Eye myself and take the risk of evolving my bloodline.
Lin Yuan had just finished speaking, and the jaws of all the emperor-cla.s.s mermaids present dropped.
He had been in seclusion for almost 10,000 years! Just how old was this mermaid with azure hair and tail?
His lifespan should almost be at its end. It was no wonder that he was so insistent on entering the Deep Chasm Sea Eye now.
If his lifespan was at its end and he asked the other mermaids for help, it was unlikely that even Brilliant Gold would turn him down.
But as it turned out, Lin Yuan had no intention of asking for their help and wanted to attempt the breakthrough on his own.
