Sikong Wuyuan did not understand. “Xie Zhizhi, I remember that those mermen were there when they called Jiang Ming the mermaid princess. Why are you asking?”
“Oh… I didn’t notice Jiang Ming’s situation,” Xie Zhizhi said awkwardly. “All my attention was on Ling Yunxiao.”
Jiang Ming wanted to roll his eyes.
Love truly made one blind and stupid!
“Ning Caichen,” Xie Qianling said. “You have to be the mermaid princess.”
“Huh?”
This time, it was Jiang Ming’s turn to be dumbfounded.
“Why do I have to do that?”
He did not want to be forced into such a mission.
Also, he did not seem to know the answer to his question.
Xie Qianling gave Jiang Ming an answer. “Ning Caichen, the mermen will only recognize the person with the jade seal as the mermaid princess. Previously, it was Xie Zhizhi, now it’s you. Xie Zhizhi, you should be very happy, right? Without your mission as the princess, you can be with Ling Yunxiao.”
However, Xie Zhizhi lowered her head and did not say a word.
Ling Yunxiao seemed to understand Xie Zhizhi’s thoughts. He sighed and asked Xie Qianling, “Xie Qianling, can you give us the jade seal back?”
This was also the question that Jiang Ming wanted to ask.
He did not want to add unnecessary trouble.
Xie Qianling looked at Jiang Ming mockingly. “I guess I can’t give it back. Ning
Caichen seems to be quite strong.”
The last sentence seemed to be a compliment, but Jiang Ming heard a hint of schadenfreude in her voice.
“Why can’t you do that? If you can change your appearance once, you should be able to change it again!”
Sikong Wuyuan did not believe what Xie Qianling said.
“I don’t care if you believe me,” Xie Qianling said nonchalantly. “I’m telling the truth. As for this mission, if it is not completed, the mermaid princess will die.”
“Do you think we’re toddlers? Are you trying to scare us like this?” Liang Sisi smiled. She did not think Xie Qianling was telling the truth.
However, Xie Qianling was still indifferent.
“The answer is still the same.”
Jiang Ming thought for a moment, then asked Xie Qianling tentatively, “What are you doing here? Could it be that you’re here for the jade seal as well?”
Xie Qianling did not expect Jiang Ming to hit the nail on the head. She coughed and said, “Of course, this jade seal is mine! Let’s not talk about this for now. Hurry up and open the mechanism. I’ve already made you a promise. If you don’t open it now, you’ll be known as a horrible person!”
She became anxious, and her legs kept trying to escape from the mechanism.
However, Jiang Ming still did not think it was time to activate the mechanism.
He continued to ask, “How do you know that the jade seal is with me?”
Xie Zhizhi touched her body and found that the jade seal was gone. He rushed to Jiang Ming and said, “Ning Caichen, quickly return the jade seal to me.”
Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows. “Oh? Are both of you claiming that the seal is yours? This is interesting.”
Xie Qianling started to feel a little frustrated.
She was very impatient, and this mechanism was pinching her feet, which put her in a lot of pain.
Her thoughts were in a swirl as she secretly released a snake that she had raised.
The moment it came out, the snake became extremely small and sneaked toward Jiang Ming according to Xie Qianling’s instructions.
Jiang Ming did not notice the snake. Seeing that Xie Qianling did not answer, he asked Xie Zhizhi, “Xie Zhizhi, is this your sister?”
Xie Zhizhi did not seem to want to admit it. After a while, she said, “We are indeed sisters. I am the younger sister, and she is the older sister.”
When Xie Zhizhi said this, the little snake had already reached Jiang Ming’s feet.
Jiang Ming felt a chill at his feet and subconsciously raised his foot to step on the snake.
The little snake was immediately stepped on by Jiang Ming, and it let out a loud hissing sound.
This sound was heard by everyone.
Immediately after, the little snake grew larger.
When Jiang Ming saw its green scales, he seemed to have realized something. He raised his feet and retreated.
The moment he lifted his foot, he even plucked off one of the scales.
With that, the snake immediately let out another loud sound.
Xie Qianling also noticed the scale in Jiang Ming’s hand, and her heart ached.
This little snake was nourished by her spiritual energy for ten thousand years.
Now, Ning Caichen had hurt it so easily. Ning Caichen was really shameless.
As the snake grew larger, Sikong Wuyuan and the others became nervous.
This snake was evil. It would be too difficult to deal with.
The snake was furious with Jiang Ming and surged toward him.
Jiang Ming saw through the snake’s thoughts and jumped up again. He went in front of the snake and pulled out another scale.
Just a single scale being plucked was enough to cause the snake to feel extreme pain.
It was almost crazy.
Jiang Ming threw the scale into the bin and used his spiritual energy to form a sword. He picked up the sword and slashed at the snake.
Xie Qianling felt that her treasured snake was about to be cut in half. She rushed forward and tried to snatch Jiang Ming’s sword away.
However, Jiang Ming dodged Xie Qianling’s attack. Xie Qianling panicked, and ice flowers appeared in her hands. She rushed toward Jiang Ming’s sword, trying to break it.
However, the ice flower was useless against his sword.
“How is this possible?”
Xie Qianling was furious. Her entire body was emitting an icy light as she charged at Jiang Ming’s sword.
Her intention was very simple. She just wanted to freeze Jiang Ming’s sword. This was her unique skill.
Jiang Ming naturally would not let Xie Qianling get away with that. “I did not plan to continue dodging so much.”
Would Xie Qianling actually go up against him?
To her surprise, Xie Qianling actually went against him head-on. She took out a short and thick paintbrush and used it to block Jiang Ming’s sword.
Jiang Ming found it unbelievable.
What was Xie Qianling thinking? Then, Jiang Ming’s sword collided with Xie Qianling’s brush, and a beam of spiritual energy shot out.
This spiritual energy drew a long beam in the air.
Sikong Wuyuan and the others were all knocked out by this long beam of spiritual energy.
Seeing this, Jiang Ming changed his direction and started fighting Xie Qianling.
Xie Qianling did not want to be outdone. She rubbed the brush in her hand and kept hitting Jiang Ming’s sword.
However, although the brush in her hand was full of spiritual energy, it still could not withstand Jiang Ming’s sword.
Not long after, Xie Qianling’s brush broke into two. Her spiritual energy was also scattered out..
