Chapter 639: Chapter 371: Forced Contract_1
Boom——
The grand city built atop the seabed mountain range was facing a catastrophe akin to a meteor shower. Under the overwhelming power, this city built with countless merfolk’s blood, sweat, and filled with bones of various ocean clans, was shattered.
Despite the dazzling, myriad bursts of spiritual light, none could stall for more than a split second. The incoming force was relentless.
“Stop!”
An angry reprimand thundered. A golden spiritual light shone amidst the rapidly collapsing city sinking into darkness. A giant projection of a human upper body and a fish-tail lower body, spanning over a thousand feet, materialized in the ocean depths.
Nevertheless, compared to the culprits destroying the Merfolk’s capital city, even this colossal projection seemed inconsequential and insignificant.
Furthermore, it wasn’t just one single entity causing destruction. It was merely a few of the least conspicuous in a group, casually swimming in the sky above the city and lightly patting their massive fins and tails.
Their existence was a natural disaster!
Where they passed, only devastation remained!
Under the guidance of Da Kun Xuan, the Kun group that descended on the territory of the merfolk brought a catastrophic blow to the Heterogeneous Clan, which under the rule of the Merfolk Queen, had been expanding wildly.
In the face of such near extinction, the ambitious Merfolk Queen finally revealed herself, which slightly surprised Feng Qing’an.
[Race: Merfolk]
[Attributes: God, Water, Spirit]
[Potential Level: Emperor·Medium]
[Combat Level: Emperor·Upper]
There was no issue with the potential. It should have been like this. Without this kind of bloodline potential, how could one control the clan and lead the clan to dominate a maritime domain?
As for combat power, there was no problem either. The worst-case scenario that Feng Qing’an had expected did not occur. If the Merfolk Queen was an Earth Immortal, the only thing on his mind right now would be escape.
Luckily, while the Merfolk Queen was powerful, she had only completed cultivation at the Dong Xuan realm. As for the Earth Immortal realm, it was far out of reach, likely this Merfolk Queen had not even come close to it.
What really surprised Feng Qing’an was the appearance of this Merfolk Queen. In his anticipation, an ambitious Merfolk Queen should possess a piercing gaze, eyes like a rising sun, a wide mouth and broad nose, clear-cut angles, a thick mustache, clothed in golden armor, and holding a trident.
However, what appeared before him was a Merfolk Queen in armor, holding a trident. But it was not the imposing, bearded male Merfolk Queen he pictured, instead, it was a dignified and composed female Merfolk Queen.
“Why violate my territory? We have never had a conflict before!”
After her projection appeared, she became even more aware of her weakness and that of her clan. Knowing full well that her merfolk kingdom was facing imminent disaster, the Merfolk Queen did not launch an attack but harshly questioned instead.
Even faced with annihilation, she wanted to know the actual reason that led to the destruction of her kingdom. Was it just that the Kun Group happened to pass by? This reason seemed absurd to say the least.
Hoo——
A long, ethereal cry resounded. Amidst the crumbling capital city of the merfolk, a Da Kun with golden divine patterns on its fins suddenly swam out of the ruins, stared at the Merfolk Queen’s projection, and snorted angrily.
You claim innocence? You’re joking! Those merfolks that previously came after him with the Dragon Shark Swarm, what’s their story? Dare you say those merfolks have nothing to do with you?
“Dragon Shark Swarm?!”
The Merfolk Queen, shocked and enraged by the sudden threat of destruction to her kingdom, fell silent when she understood the information contained in the passing water currents.
She was well aware of the powerful beings in her kingdom and knew exactly the kind in her kingdom that could command the Dragon Shark Swarm.
They had to be of the same bloodline as hers. What truly infuriated her was that she wasn’t informed about any of this.
It was only after the disaster unfolded that she found out her foolish kin had provoked the Kun group. What were they thinking?
Under her leadership, they had achieved successive victories. Did that lead them to look down on all species in the ocean? ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
The troubles invited by these fools now fell on her shoulders. Facing the interrogation of the Da Kun, she had no grounds to refute.
After all, she and those foolish kin are essentially one and the same, at least when facing another race. Even if she wanted to disassociate now, it would be too late. The capital had already been destroyed, and countless clansfolk died in this sudden calamity.
As a ruler and the leader of the clan, the first thing she needed to do under such circumstances was not to avenge the dead clansfolk, but to do everything possible to secure a chance of survival for those who were still struggling in this disaster.
The survival was the first demand of a clan, whereas dignity and glory were considerations only after survival had been assured.
If the continuation of the race couldn’t be guaranteed, then dignity, glory, and everything else not related to survival could be discarded.
