Keyboard Immortal - Chapter 2440
953: Questioning the Heart
Princess Peacock actually wanted to go down with Zuan, but she was assigned to negotiate an alliance with the Sea Clan, so she was definitely not a girl who couldn’t tell the difference between the important and the unimportant.
She knew very well that with the strength shown by those huge monsters just now, she would not be able to help at all if she went down, and the other party would have to be distracted to take care of her.
Rather than being a drag on the business and being disliked, it would be more appropriate to stay here.
Of course, she also wanted to help the other party, and after thinking about it, she thought that the Peacock Feather on her body would be useful.
She didn’t care about the many instructions from the elders of the clan before leaving, and decided to give it to the other party for self-defense.
This scene fell into the eyes of the masters of the Sea Clan, and they couldn’t help but smile knowingly. After all, the two of them had a close relationship, and it was normal for them to give gifts to each other.
Only Zuan and the Mermaid Queen knew how much she meant to give this treasure of the clan. Zuan smiled gently and put the Peacock Feather back into her hands: “I have a magic weapon, you keep it for self-defense.”
He had a treasure-dropping copper coin, which was similar to the Peacock Feather in some ways, and of a higher grade, so he really didn’t need this thing.
On the contrary, it was Peacock Princess who needed this thing to defend herself in this complicated environment.
Seeing him refuse, Peacock Princess’ eyes instantly turned red. This was the only thing she could think of that could help him, but it didn’t work for him.
At this moment, she felt like a failure. Not only was she not as beautiful as the Mermaid Queen, but she was also not as useful as her. She could fight alongside him in such a dangerous situation just now, but she couldn’t do anything.
Zuan was a little confused. Why did she look like she was about to cry?
The mermaid queen rolled her eyes at Zuan, thinking that this guy really didn’t understand her daughter’s heart, so she pulled the Peacock Princess aside and comforted her while secretly transmitting the message: “Sister Qingwu, the reason why he wants to return this thing to you is that he wants you to have an extra trump card in your hand. Think about it, after we go down, all the people on it are the Dragon King and his people. Although they just showed gratitude, after all, they were just about to surrender to the demons. What if they turn against us at that time? Wouldn’t we be stuck in there?”
The Peacock Princess was stunned: “Really?”
The mermaid queen smiled: “Of course it’s true, but he just said that in front of many sea clan masters, he can’t tell you directly.”
The Peacock Princess immediately turned from worry to joy: “Don’t worry, I will definitely back you up up there and won’t let them mess around.”
At the same time, thinking quickly, I’m afraid I may not be able to defend it alone.
It just so happened that he gave me the task of negotiating the alliance. At that time, I will take the opportunity to contact those forces in the sea clan who are determined to fight against the demons, so that even if something happens, I will have a force to rely on.
Princess Peacock came to Zuan and said, “Be careful on your way. I will be waiting for you here.”
Zuan looked at the mermaid queen with some doubts, and was a little curious about how she could persuade him in such a short time.
The mermaid queen blinked at him and did not answer.
With Princess Peacock taking the lead, the sea clan’s strong men also sent their self-defense magic weapons one by one, hoping to do their best.
Zuan did not refuse this time and accepted all the magic weapons.
Seeing this scene, Princess Peacock felt sweet in her heart. He really treated me differently from others.
Zuan soon said goodbye to the sea clan and brought the mermaid queen to the edge of the trench.
The bottom was no longer emitting the magnificent and bright light of the formation as he had come a few days ago, but was in ruins. The entire trench was shrouded in the gray-white death aura, and only some residual formations could be seen occasionally.
Zuan held the mermaid queen’s hand and circulated the Hongmeng Yuanshi Sutra to help her dispel the death aura around her.
“Don’t leave me too far after you go down.”
“Yes.”
Seeing this scene, Princess Kongque cried with envy. She also wanted to go down with him.
The sea clan warriors looked at Zuan with envy. For so many years, everyone has been pursuing the mermaid queen. Although the other party makes everyone feel like spring breeze, everyone knows that they are actually far away from her. This attitude is a manifestation of the other party keeping a distance from themselves. Everyone
is very curious about what kind of man can finally hold the beauty. No one has the answer. No matter who the queen chooses, they will not be convinced, because they don’t think the other party can really beat themselves.
But now, everyone finally got the answer, but found that their hearts were unusually calm.
There is only envy, no jealousy or hatred. After all, after watching these battles, the man is really too powerful, and everyone here has received his great kindness.
I think there is probably only such a man in the world who is worthy of her.
…
On the other side, the mermaid queen’s eyes quietly fell on the other party holding her hand, and a touch of joy suddenly appeared between her eyebrows.
Although there was a ghostly white fog in all directions, and even from time to time there were some strange howls of unknown creatures, which were shrill and weird.
But the mermaid queen felt that everything around her had a unique beauty, which seemed to be the most wonderful memory of her life.
Zuan waved his hand, and the magic weapons he had just received floated around the mermaid queen: “These magic weapons are of no use to me. Now there are dangers everywhere below, you should keep them for self-defense.”
“Thank you.” The mermaid queen did not refuse, and took these things with a smile, thinking that this was a gift from him, I must keep it well.
It seemed that she had completely forgotten that these gifts were actually given by other sea clan strongmen.
“By the way, what did you say to Peacock Princess just now?” Zuan asked curiously.
The mermaid queen pursed her lips and smiled: “Don’t worry about your daughter’s affairs.”
Zuan: “…”
After the other party said that, he really couldn’t continue to ask.
He could only hold her hand and continue to dive. The mermaid queen could sense that there seemed to be many unknown creatures around her, but they were afraid to get too close because they were afraid of the purifying power of the Hongmeng Qi.
Feeling the warmth in her palm, the mermaid queen carefully looked at his profile and suddenly spoke: “I have seen your appearance just now. There is no outsider here. Do you still want to wear this mask?”
Zuan: “…”
Thinking back to the time when he almost failed to show off, he was embarrassed at the moment.
“Can I help you take it off?” The mermaid queen came to his side and asked quietly.
Her voice changed from her usual cold voice, and seemed particularly sweet and naive.
Zuan was thinking about the embarrassment just now, and he didn’t react for a while.
The mermaid queen took it as his consent and went over to take off his mask.
Zuan: “…”
Although it was not the first time she saw him, the mermaid queen was still absent-minded when she saw his appearance again: “You are so handsome, why do you always pretend to be like that before?”
Zuan saw that the mask had been taken off, so putting it on again would be a bit of self-deception, but he was not sure how to answer the other party’s question.
The mermaid queen smiled and said, “You are not too lucky in love, are you worried that you might accidentally arouse the girl’s heart again?”
Zuan: “…”
“Just kidding,” fortunately the mermaid queen was very considerate to change the subject, “Are you worried that leaving your appearance will affect the original time and space?”
Zuan nodded, he did have this worry.
“Don’t worry, I will only remember your appearance in my heart, and I won’t spread it in other forms.” The mermaid queen’s voice suddenly became gentle, “Can you tell me the story of you and that mermaid girl in the future?”
