Chapter 969: A Painting (1)
“Oh right, although I’ve already gotten what I wanted, I still have something to ask you, Mermaid Race Leader.”
Xiao Changtian’s expression turned serious.
“I don’t deserve it, I don’t deserve it. If you have any questions, just ask them directly.”
The Mermaid Tribe Leader was a little confused. Why would someone as omnipotent as Senior ask him for advice?
“That’s right, I want to know more about the history of your Mermaid Tribe.”
Xiao Changtian had wanted to ask the Mermaid Princess, but now that they were out, the Mermaid Clan Leader would definitely know more than her.
“The history of the Mermaid Race?”
Hearing this question, the Mermaid Tribe Leader was stunned.
What does Senior mean by asking this question? Could it be that Senior is interested in our Mermaid Race?
“How about this? Senior, come in and we’ll talk slowly.”
After all, the history of the Mermaid Race could not be explained in just a few sentences.
” Wait a minute, Sect Master of the Jadeite Sect. I still have some unfinished business with the Mermaid Tribe. Since you want to go back and save them, hurry up.”
Xiao Changtian was prepared to follow the Mermaid Race Patriarch in and listen to the story.
However, he remembered that the people from the Yaolin Sect who came with him wanted to save him, so he immediately said.
“Good senior, we will leave immediately.””
How could the Sect Master not know what Senior meant?
It must be because it was inconvenient for Senior to tell them what he wanted to do.
Therefore, they knew what was good for them and left quickly.
Yao Li looked at Xiao Changtian angrily.
He had not accomplished anything on this trip!
Just like that, Xiao Changtian followed the Mermaid Tribe’s Patriarch to the Mermaid Tribe’s main hall after sending off the people from the Majestic Jade Sect.
“Senior, the history of our mermaid race might be a little long.”
“It’s okay. I’m not in a hurry now.”
After all, he had already obtained this spirit tree seed. Moreover, the system’s mission did not have any time limit.
As long as the Mermaid Clan Leader told them about their history, the system’s mission would be completed.
“Millions of years ago, the creatures of the Eastern Sea were on good terms with the people of the human world. However, one day, humans suddenly attacked the races of the Eastern Sea like crazy.”
“At that time, the ancestors of our Mermaid Race used all their strength to protect our Mermaid Race…”
…
Just like that, the mermaid clan leader talked to Xiao Changtian for a long time.
“I didn’t expect that your mermaid race would encounter such ups and downs.”
Xiao Changtian sighed.
It seemed that it was not easy for the merfolk to survive until now.
“System, how is it? Is the mission complete?”
“Ding! It doesn’t count!”
“You… Are you playing with me? The Mermaid Race Patriarch had said so much from the beginning. You say this doesn’t count?”
Xiao Changtian was so angry that he almost laughed.
The system had said that it wanted him to understand the history of the Mermaid Race.
Now that he had told her everything he knew, the system actually said that it did not count.
“If the system says it doesn’t count, then it doesn’t count.”
The system ignored Xiao Changtian’s complaints.
“Chief of the Mermaid Race, are you hiding something from me?”
Xiao Changtian took a deep breath and pondered for a moment before asking the Mermaid Race Patriarch.
As expected! His little trick couldn’t be hidden from Senior.
Although he had told them the history of the Mermaid Race from the beginning to the end.
However, there was one key thing that he had not mentioned. The true history of the Mermaid Race could only be found in the altar of the East Sea.
This was because the altar in the East Sea was very mysterious and powerful.
Therefore, the Mermaid Tribe Chief didn’t tell anyone about that place.
He didn’t expect Senior to know about that place long ago. He must have wanted to see his attitude from the beginning.
Aiya! He really made a mistake! He actually thought that he could hide it from Senior!
“Senior, I’m really sorry. I know I was wrong. I shouldn’t have hidden it from you. But that place is too mysterious, I… It’s not easy to ask.”
The Mermaid Race Patriarch realized his mistake and immediately apologized to Xiao Changtian.
“Aiya, so what? Just say it.”
As expected, I was wondering why the system didn’t say anything. So this kid had something else he didn’t tell me.
Hearing Xiao Changtian’s tone, the Mermaid Clan Leader didn’t expect Xiao Changtian to forgive him so quickly.
He instantly felt even more sorry for Senior.
“Senior, that place is called the East Sea Altar. Only there is a complete record of the history of our Mermaid Race. However, that place is more than ten times more terrifying than our Mermaid Race’s forbidden land!”
If that place wasn’t so terrifying, the Mermaid Tribe Leader wouldn’t have been so humble as to offer sacrifices to the two envoys.
Because it was said that there was a ten-thousand-year-old demon inside.
Every few days, that ten-thousand-year-old demon would collect many sacrifices.
However, as long as they could hand over the offerings, that ten-thousand-year-old demon would not do anything to them.
However, for some reason, that ten-thousand-year-old demon actually wanted an envoy to collect gold coins.
Could it be that the ten-thousand-year-old monster was a Pi Xiu? Are you going to eat gold coins?
“Tsk! Ah tsk!”
“Who’s talking bad about me behind my back?”
When Ren Yu Clan Leader thought of this, the Pi Xiu behind Xiao Changtian sneezed twice.
“I didn’t expect you to have such a place. I thought the East Sea was the world of the human race.”
Xiao Changtian nodded.
It seemed that he had to make a trip to that place.
“Senior, it’s so hard for you to go to the forbidden area. Why don’t you rest for two days in our Mermaid Race before going?”
The Mermaid Princess said immediately.
Senior will definitely go to the East Sea Altar.
They wanted to use this time to curry favor with their seniors.
“Aiya, I didn’t expect these people to be so enthusiastic. I’m embarrassed to reject them.”
Xiao Changtian smiled as he sat in the bedroom he had arranged for himself.
“Du! Bam!”
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
“Senior, are you still awake?”
The Mermaid Princess ‘voice came from the door.
“Princess, why are you here?”
Xiao Changtian immediately opened the door and welcomed the Mermaid Princess in.
“Senior, this is a gift from my father. You must accept it.”
The Mermaid Princess took out a huge red pearl.
Sigh, it seems that these people have put in a lot of effort. This pearl seems to be very precious to them.
“How can I accept this?”
He had already taken away their spirit tree seeds, so he was too embarrassed to ask for anything else.
It was over! Could it be that Senior doesn’t like this Life Recovery Pearl? However, this was the thing they could take out the most.
In an instant, Mermaid Princess’s face turned aggrieved and she looked like she was about to cry.
“Aiya, alright, alright. In that case, I’ll accept it.”
Xiao Changtian couldn’t bear to see these women cry as if he had done something wrong.
“In return, I’ll give you a painting.”
