Chapter 1657: Chapter 1655: Details
Upon hearing this, Gu Lin furiously said, "Those damn Black Dragon Clan, one day Iāll make them pay the price they deserve!"
Gui Hao laughed heartily, "Your Majesty, thereās no need, because now the entire Abyssal Demon Abyss is already under Ling Fengās control!"
"What?" Gu Lin exclaimed in shock, "Is that true?"
Though the Fishmen Race is in the Sea of Spiritual Void, theyāve heard of the Abyssal Demon Abyss, a tough area that even the Abyssal Court finds troublesome, yet it has become part of Ling Fengās power?
"Quick, tell me whatās going on!" Gu Lin was intensely curious about Ling Feng, and he also knew that Gui Hao wouldnāt recklessly bring people from the Abyssal Court to the Undersea City.
Gui Hao smiled and proceeded to tell Gu Lin how Ling Feng subdued the Abyssal Demon Abyss.
After hearing everything, Gu Lin couldnāt help but marvel, "What a courageous and wise talent! If only he were a descendant of my Fishmen Race!"
Gui Hao smiled and then asked, "Your Majesty, I encountered the royal steward of the Shark People Clan, Yu Chong, on the way here. As for the Little Princess..."
Gui Hao brought up the matter, and Gu Lin smiled wryly, "I didnāt expect you to know about this halfway through your journey."
"What exactly happened?"
"Hereās the situation!" Gu Lin said, "Because of the missing Innate Spirit Pearl, our Fishmen Race has faced inexplicable attacks over the past hundred years. Reports indicate that the Sea Beast Clan is also plotting against us, and they have launched many attacks on us over the years!"
"The Sea Beast Clan is the strongest clan in the Sea of Spiritual Void. Although our Fishmen Race is not weak, there is still a gap between us and the Sea Beast Clan. So, over the years, weāve been actively contacting the Shark People Clan."
"As long as we form an alliance with the Shark People Clan, our combined strength would be more than enough to resist the Sea Beast Clan!" Gu Lin said with a bitter smile, "However, the Shark People Clan offered a condition!"
Gui Hao raised his eyebrows, "Is it that the Little Princess must marry their Young Master of the Shark People Clan?"
"Exactly!" Gu Lin nodded, "I know the Young Master of the Shark People Clan. Although his appearance doesnāt quite meet the Fishmen Raceās aesthetic standards, heās considered accomplished. Heās now at the Peak of the Divine Sea Realm cultivation. I think Jia Er marrying him would be a good match, but unexpectedly..."
"Unexpectedly, that girl Jia Er ran away, which made the Shark People Clan very dissatisfied. Recently, the relationship between us and the Shark People Clan has been a bit tense." Gu Lin said with some headache.
Gui Hao frowned, "I noticed when I entered the city that our Undersea City has been much more heavily guarded. Wasnāt it always a case of loose outside and tight inside? Could it be that the Undersea City is also facing some danger?"
Gu Lin rubbed his nose, "Actually, ever since the Innate Spirit Pearl was stolen, the Undersea City has transformed from loose outside and tight inside to strict inside and out. After all, the Undersea City is our Fishmen Raceās Imperial Capital; thereās no real danger here."
Gui Hao was momentarily stunned, then smiled wryly, realizing the truth.
"By the way, Your Majesty, what do you think of Ling Feng?" Gui Hao asked, "Although I havenāt known Ling Feng for long, this kid is brave, resourceful, and careful. He is also the Dragon God Successor and the master of the Abyssal Demon Abyss..."
Gu Lin frowned, "Gui Hao, do we need to play riddles with each other? What do you really mean, just say it!"
Gui Hao said, "What I mean is... how about making Ling Feng the Imperial Son-in-law of our Fishmen Race? I see that the Little Princess seems to have a special feeling for Ling Feng."
"How is that possible!" Gu Lin instinctively said, "But... isnāt Ling Feng the Imperial Son-in-law of Princess Yun Xuan?"
"Just a fiancĆ©!" Gui Hao shrugged, "They arenāt married yet, and most importantly, the Little Princess likes him!"
Gu Lin frowned and could only say, "Iāll consider it first!"
If it werenāt for Princess Yun Xuanās involvement, Gu Lin would have been glad to see it happen. However, now Ling Feng is Princess Yun Xuanās fiancĆ©, recruiting Ling Feng would mean his daughter is stealing someone elseās man?
"Iāll go and hear what Jia Er has to say first!" Gu Lin thought to himself.
Meanwhile, in the Inner Palace, Gu Li Jiaās mother, with a face full of affection, looked at Gu Li Jia, "You mischievous girl! Even if you donāt like the Young Master of the Shark People Clan, couldnāt you have told me? Do you think I would tie you up and send you there? And look at you, running away from home like youāve learned to, have you suffered a lot these days?"
Gu Li Jia buried herself in her motherās arms, "Yes, yes, the outside world is indeed too dangerous. This time I want to stay at home and keep you company, not going anywhere."
"Itās good that you know itās dangerous outside. Stay home for now. As for your marriage..."
Before her mother could finish, Gu Li Jia quickly said, "Mother, canāt I marry that Shark People Clan guy? Heās so ugly, I donāt like him!"
"Nonsense, finding a husband isnāt just about looks! Itās about real ability!" The mother gently patted Gu Li Jia, "Where can you find someone both handsome and capable who isnāt a heartbreaker!"
"Of course, there is!" Gu Li Jia said, "Brother Ling Feng is!"
"Ling Feng?" her mother thought for a moment, "Tell me the truth, do you have a crush on your Brother Ling Feng?"
"No way!" Gu Li Jia naturally wouldnāt admit it, she said, "I was just using Brother Ling Feng as an example, plus Brother Ling Feng already has a fiancĆ©e!"
At this point, a trace of melancholy appeared on Gu Li Jiaās face. Her mother seemed to understand something and patted Gu Li Jia, "Quick, go change your clothes, weāll be hosting your Brother Ling Feng later. He brought my daughter back, and we must thank him properly!"
...
Ling Feng and Princess Yun Xuan were arranged in a guest room. Although it was under the sea, it was incredibly comfortable.
"Ling Feng, letās go out for a walk tomorrow!" Princess Yun Xuan looked at the scenery outside, speaking with excitement, "This is my first time in the Undersea City. I saw many interesting things when entering, and I decided I want to shop around tomorrow!"
Ling Feng said irritably, "I have serious business to attend to, why donāt you go with Gu Li Jia?"
"Are you even a man? Whatās the harm in accompanying me for some shopping?" Princess Yun Xuan said crossly, "Iāve come all the way with you, and you canāt even spare one day?"
