The Path of the Sage

Chapter 2573: First encounter with a mermaid

Fang Yun stepped on Pingbu Qingyun, hovered in the air, and looked around.

The small meteor flew slowly with Fang Yun as the center, leaving silver light at its tail. The silver light lingered for a long time, making Fang Yun surrounded by starlight, which was quite magical.

There is endless sea all around, and there is nothing special except that deserted island.

Fang Yun felt a slight heat on his left arm. He lifted up his sleeve and saw that the blood fish pattern was glowing slightly.

Then, the blood fish pattern squirmed gently, and finally jumped out of Fang Yun's arm. It flicked its tail, entered the sea, and swam rapidly in one direction.

Only a very shallow bloody fish mark was left on Fang Yun's arm.

Fang Yun found that he was getting farther and farther away from the blood fish, but he could still clearly sense the specific location of the blood fish.

Fang Yun nodded, stepped on Pingbu Qingyun, and flew after the blood fish.

After the blood fish entered the water, it swam at an extraordinary speed, soon surpassing Bai Ming's speed, and continued to swim faster and faster.

Not long after, Fang Yun discovered that the blood fish had stopped and seemed to be deep under the sea.

Fang Yun continued to fly at the speed of Yiming, maintaining a state of multitasking. While on guard, he used his divine sense to flip through the ancient book that he had just copied from the dragon clan in the world of strange books.

Fang Yun's status has now been raised, and he can directly access the various secret stone carvings in the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea. He didn't have time before, so he took the opportunity to pass by the Dragon Palace and use his divine sense to copy them into the world of strange books.

Fang Yun flew for a long time and finally arrived above the place where the blood fish stayed. He looked down at the deep sea below. The Wu Hou Chariot appeared behind him and he placed the Two Dragon Seal on the Wu Hou Chariot.

The Wuhou chariot fell into the sea. At the same time, the Erlong Jade Seal released a powerful force to protect the Wuhou chariot and sank at an extremely fast speed.

Fang Yun was getting closer and closer to the seabed and soon discovered that there was an underwater mountain range below him. There were many strange-shaped underwater plants in the mountains, which were somewhat similar to kelp and water plants. Various marine creatures lived nearby.

Afterwards, Fang Yun entered a dark sea trench based on his perception of the blood fish.

The sea trench is endlessly long, over a hundred feet wide, several miles deep, and pitch black to the bottom. But in Fang Yun's eyes, everything is clearly visible, as if in daylight.

Fang Yun saw from afar that in a crack in the wall of a trench, there were several mermaids that he had only seen in ancient murals.

The upper body of a mermaid is human, and the lower body is fish.

The three mermaids wore metal skirts around their waists, revealing their graceful fish bodies covered with silver scales and ending in a wide, colorful tail fin.

The upper bodies of these mermaids are very similar to those of humans, except that they have silver fins on their backs that are connected to their fish bodies, their eyes are bright, and their chins are slightly thin.

The three mermaids in the crack were all male, and their bodies were nearly eight feet long, about a head taller than Fang Yun.

The three mermaids held water-dividing spears made of conch shells, shaped like steel forks. Their upper bodies were naked, revealing their fair and strong bodies with bulging muscles and clear lines.

Judging from human aesthetics, these three male mermaids have pointed chins and monkey cheeks.

When the three mermaids saw Fang Yun, there was no joy on their faces, but instead they were full of vigilance.

Fang Yun stretched out his left arm, revealing a faint bloody fish mark.

Fang Yun originally thought that the three male mermen had become relaxed, but their expressions did not change at all, and their eyes were still full of vigilance.

The Wuhou chariot continued to move forward and finally stopped two feet away from the three male mermen.

Fang Yun snorted coldly, expressionless, and said in pure dragon language: "I got a blood fish from the mermaid tribe asking for help and came to help. Is this how you treat the reinforcements?"

The male merman in the lead was exceptionally tall. He replied, "If you were a dragon, we would naturally treat you with courtesy, but you are a human. Until the tribe leader makes his decision, we can only treat you as an enemy."

Fang Yun didn't expect the mermaids to be so hostile to him, but then he thought that it was Lei Tingyu who did the evil, leading the human race to slaughter a large number of mermaids, so he seemed to understand the attitude of the mermaids.

Fang Yun said coldly: "Since your merman clan is in deep crisis, I will not bother with you, but I have already revealed my identity. If you still push it, don't blame me for punishing you! Do you recognize this seal?"

Fang Yun said this and took out the two dragon seals.

The three-headed merman took a closer look and showed shock on his face.

The leading merman said, "I am Jiao Yue. I recognize this as the legendary Two Dragon Jade Seal. However, the human race uses various means to deceive us, and we have to be on guard. I hope you will forgive me. Only after we have verified your identity can we treat you with courtesy. After all, we have paid the price of blood for trusting the human race."

Fang Yun's expression softened, and he said, "I can tolerate your temporary disrespect, but you must remember that I am here to help you, not to be your subordinate. Take me to see your clan leader. She should be able to confirm my identity."

Jiao Yue looked embarrassed and said, "When the call for help was sent to the blood fish, the tribe leader was indeed here, but in order to avoid being discovered by the human race and the traitors, the tribe leader had already moved away. We stayed here to welcome the blood fish's report. However, I have already reported to the tribe leader through the dolphin, and the tribe leader will reply soon. Don't get me wrong, you have an extraordinary aura, and your clothes are obviously different from those of the people in the ancient sea cliff land. You have a blood fish pattern flying to the Dragon Palace, and you have the legendary two dragon jade seal. I believe you are not an enemy. If the Sea Cliff Alliance had the two dragon jade seals, they would have used them in advance, instead of dragging it out until now."

Fang Yun nodded and said, "I already know your difficulties from the blood fish. I will wait for the news here for the time being."

Time passed slowly, and including the time Fang Yun had spent traveling, it was already more than an hour before a small transparent water drop dolphin suddenly appeared in front of Jiao Yue.

Jiao Yue opened his mouth and swallowed it, his face showing joy, and said: "The tribe leader said that we should take you to see her. But please wait a moment, I want to tell her your identity."

Fang Yun said: "I am Wen Xing Long Jue, the special envoy of the Great Procuratorate, and the general who suppresses crimes."

The three mermaids thought that they had a great background, but they didn't know how important these three positions were. They looked at each other doubtfully, and the mermaid Yue used the communication dolphin.

After the summoned dolphin flew out, Jiao Yue said, "Please follow us to where the tribe leader is."

Fang Yun nodded, and saw three mermaids leading the way in front, with Fang Yun following behind.

The three mermaids were moving slowly at first, but they looked back and found that Fang Yun could keep up, so they kept speeding up.

Finally, the three mermaids went all out and actually surpassed Yiming in speed, making a slight roar as they swam in the water. They looked back and found that Fang Yun was still following closely behind them.

The strangest thing was that the water flow around Fang Yun was extremely calm, without forming any bubbles or making any sounds, as if Fang Yun did not exist, but the speed was still very fast.

The attitudes of the three mermaids slowly changed. Their level of water control could reflect the strength of a water tribe.

Now, the three mermaids mostly believed in Fang Yun's identity. If he didn't have a powerful status among the aquatic tribe, even the most powerful scholar among the human race would never be able to be so relaxed in the water.

The three mermaids had to use a secret technique to swim so fast in the water, but they couldn't hold on for long.
