"You have seen the current situation of our mermaid tribe. Judging from the current situation, it is unknown whether we can survive in the future."

When Ovid said this, his eyes were filled with sadness.

Who could have thought that the mermaid tribe had been passed down for countless years, but would eventually be destroyed in his own hands. Although it was not his fault, Ovid felt very guilty.

"This is not your fault. It's all the fault of the demon who invaded the Western Wasteland. I must kill him and avenge you!"

After he finished speaking, Su Chen clenched his fists tightly.

"Don't be impulsive, benefactor. I can see that you are sincere to Natasha. Seeing this scene, I, your great-grandfather, am also satisfied. If Natasha stays here, her final fate will only be to be devoured by that devil. In this case, it would be better for you to take her away earlier..."

Ovid finished speaking and looked at Natasha reluctantly.

Natasha couldn't hold back her tears immediately. She took a step forward, squatted in front of Ovid, and stroked Ovid's rough hands with her face.

She cannot speak yet, and even if she could, her throat would be so hoarse that she could not make any sound. She can only express her reluctance to leave Ovid through her actions.

He had just lost his mother and didn't want to lose his hard-earned grandfather.

Su Chen couldn't bear to see this scene.

"Good boy, now is not the time to be willful. You are the hope for the future of our mermaid tribe. Only if you are alive, the mermaid tribe will have a future."

Ovid said in a heavy voice, "Our fate can only be here, but you are different. You have more possibilities."

Natasha couldn't stop shaking her head, her golden hair swaying gently, and her pupils revealed endless sadness, as if the whole world was mourning for her.

"If we mermaids want to completely transform into human form and speak, we must find someone to marry. Otherwise, we can only maintain our human form for a short period of time."

Ovid turned his head cruelly away from Natasha and continued to speak to Su Chen.

"Natasha can speak now?"

Su Chen couldn't help but ask.

"That's right. Although I haven't been in contact with you for a long time, I can feel that you are a person of good character."

As Ovid spoke, his palms suddenly glowed.

A crystal clear bead emerged, trembling restlessly up and down from time to time, surrounded by a light blue glow, like water ripples, carrying a faint power of law.

The knowledgeable Luoshen recognized the bead in an instant. It was the treasure of the mermaid tribe - the Qiankun Bead.

According to legend, although the mermaids do not have the same fierce fighting ability as land creatures, they are the darlings of the ocean, and the magic weapon that guards their core is this Qiankun Pearl.

The Qiankun Pearl not only has the ability to move mountains and seas, but can even improve a person's cultivation. It has countless benefits and is a well-deserved divine-level magic weapon.

I didn't expect Ovid to come up with this.

"Ever since that devil broke in here, I've been worried all the time that this pearl would be stolen. If that happens, our mermaid race's inheritance will be truly cut off. Now that Natasha is back, it seems that I see hope."

Ovid's eyes drifted into the distance, as if he was missing something.

"As long as you eat this, Natasha will be able to grow human legs and speak." Hearing the last sentence, Su Chen subconsciously looked at Natasha.

Natasha did not show any fanatical anticipation for the bead. Instead, she looked at Ovid with a sad face.

In her heart, nothing is more important than family.

She was already fair-skinned, and now her face was as pale as paper, which made her look even more fragile. Even her golden hair, which usually shone like the sun, seemed to have lost its luster at this moment.

"This Qiankun Pearl is so important. It is the supreme magic weapon of the mermaids. Its function is not limited to this. And there are so many mermaids among you. Did everyone use this method to grow legs and speak?"

Luo Shen was the first to notice something was wrong and couldn't help but ask with a frown.

Although she sympathized with the mermaid leader's plight, she still felt very uncomfortable with the concealment of the truth and the making a fool of him.

"Sister Luoshen..."

Luoluo felt that Luoshen's words were a bit harsh, and couldn't help but whisper some advice.

Luo Shen gave her a reassuring smile in return, indicating that he knew his limits.

It was normal to have such doubts. Ovid was not angry, but just sighed again: "Girl, you don't know that our mermaid tribe has not had any new life for hundreds of years. Normally, the blessing is presided over by the priest, but the priest has already..."

There was a hint of sadness in his eyes, and it was obvious what it meant.

"We mermaids are actually unable to leave the water for a long time, and we can only maintain our human form for a certain period of time. But with the Qiankun Pearl, things are different. Similarly, it also brings many benefits. Once such a magic weapon falls into the hands of evil people, the consequences will be disastrous."

"In that case, why don't you use the Qiankun Pearl to try to deal with Rambo? The Qiankun Pearl is an ancient artifact. If the acupuncture points are deep, it can at least barely resist Rambo's attack."

Green Radish couldn't help but ask.

Although Rambo's cultivation is very advanced, due to the restrictions of the laws of Tianxuan Continent, it is impossible for him to truly reach the realm of the Great Emperor. At most, he is a half-step Great Emperor like Yi Zhuyue.

"We would like to, but this Qiankun Pearl must have royal blood to be used. After such a long period of evolution, the royal blood has almost disappeared. Only the priests have inherited part of the royal blood. Now, the only one left is Natasha."

When Ovid said this, his eyes became blank.

His memory seemed to go back to the past, when he was young and Rambo had not yet appeared. They roamed and played together in the largest lake, and everything was so peaceful and beautiful.

The girl's shy yet beautiful smile appeared before his eyes, like the most beautiful fireworks in the world exploding in his mind.

Later they had their own child, a somewhat rebellious little mermaid. After the little mermaid became a priest, she began to yearn for the outside world.

After that...after that...

Ovid couldn't help shedding tears. He stroked his cheeks with his skinny hands. Thinking of the good old days was his motivation to live.

Fortunately, fortunately, at least he still has Natasha, their granddaughter.

"We will definitely defeat that demon. I know you may not believe us now, but for now, I can find a way to get you out of the Western Wasteland."

Su Chen sighed, not knowing what to say for a moment. (End of this chapter)
