767 Threat
The old king nodded. “Yes.”
The old king had always been skeptical about interacting with the humans. He could not believe that people of different races would form an alliance, especially when they did not have a common enemy.
The old king looked at Zhou Zhi, trying to see some emotions from this young man. However, this young man only maintained a faint smile. This smile was only on the surface. If one looked carefully at his eyes, they would discover that his expression was as calm as water. He was not flustered or afraid.
“Do you think the two races will eventually sign an alliance?”
The old king looked at Zhou Zhi and asked.
Zhou Zhi nodded. “Yes.”
“Why? Perhaps our fish people don’t need your knowledge either. Our fish people have been passed down for a long time. It doesn’t matter if we don’t have human knowledge.”
The old king asked in confusion. Although there was a problem with the transformation of the fish people, there might not be an answer to the knowledge of the human race. Why did Zhou Zhi firmly believe that the two races could definitely form an alliance?
Zhou Zhi smiled faintly and said, “My king, you don’t understand the human race. Humans are the most curious in this world. Even if they don’t form an alliance, if they know of such a place, they will definitely think of ways to set foot in it. It’s beneficial to everyone to understand and form an alliance, right? The fish people can take this opportunity to understand the human race and learn knowledge. They can also understand what kind of race the human race is, right?”
“I said that we will definitely form an alliance because I don’t want to die here. I don’t deny that the fish people are very powerful, but the king can’t deny the fact that the human race isn’t weak either. Isn’t it good to have such an opportunity to understand each other? Let’s take advantage of the peace.”
Zhou Zhi looked at the old king with a faint smile.
The fish people were powerful, but it was not impossible to kill them.
There was no such thing as eternal peace in this world. The alliance would be torn apart one day. If they wanted to gain a foothold, they had to understand them first.
Before this world fused with the foreign land, why had they never seen the fish people? Even the other beasts did not see them. Why were only humans alive?
Had the king of the fish people thought of these questions?
Zhou Zhi thought that he must have thought about it. The heavens gave birth to many bitter people, but he had to admit that the human race was protected and doted on by the heavens.
“You’re right. The two races should form an alliance. We’ll talk in two days when the prince of your Zhou Dynasty comes.”
A smile also appeared on the old king’s face. The fish people could not understand the letter from Zhou Chao, so they naturally would not show it to Zhou Zhi and the others. They could only oralize everything.
“My king, can we leave now?”
Su Xiaolu felt that there was nothing else to do, but everyone was standing stiffly and had nothing to say. She felt very bored and felt depressed. It would be better to go back and lie down.
“Miss, can I ask you a question? What do you hammer in your room every day?”
The old king looked at Su Xiaolu and asked the question in his heart.
When these people were captured, they had already been searched. There was nothing on them.
However, Su Xiaolu could still take out some things to tinker with. There were treasures in the fusion of the foreign land. She must have somewhere to store these things. These people were all worried. Now, she was suddenly doing something very strange. As long as someone entered, she would put it away.
Su Xiaolu grinned evilly and said, “Poisonous thing. If you don’t form an alliance and want to kill us to silence us, I’ll sprinkle poison and make your fish people lose the ability to reproduce. From this generation onwards, you won’t have any descendants!”
The old Sea King was shocked.
The fish people were all furious and shocked, they all looked like they were preparing to attack.
Gui You immediately turned around and blocked Su Xiaolu’s figure.
“You, you, you…”
The old Sea King was furious, but he could not think of how to express his anger. He had never seen someone as evil as Su Xiaolu. She dared to say the evil thoughts in her heart.
Su Xiaolu looked at the old Sea King and smiled brightly. “That’s why we have to form an alliance. There are still many more cunning and sinister people you can’t imagine. If you don’t know them well enough, how can you deal with them?”
The intelligence of the fish people was relatively rigid. Since Su Xiaolu knew, Zhou Zhi could naturally tell as well.
They were suspicious and indecisive. It was obvious that their desire to form an alliance had loosened. Since that was the case, they would threaten and bribe them.
They were in the fish people’s territory and might lose their lives here, but this was the fish people’s territory. If the territory was contaminated, they could not survive here. Since they could not survive, there was nothing to worry about.
If she had too many scruples, she would be scolded by the old man even if she died. Didn’t people have to fight for face?
“Let the guests leave.”
It was obvious that the old king could not keep his cool. He looked at Su Xiaolu many times with a complicated expression.
Su Xiaolu knew that she was very annoying at this moment, but she did not care and smiled.
The smile on Zhou Zhi’s lips deepened.
Looking at the others, they all had faint smiles.
Gui You praised, “Girl, well done.”
He and Old Wu had always been worried that Su Xiaolu was too kind like Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao. Now, they finally did not have to worry.
The little girl was both good and evil. It all depended on her mood. The more he looked at her, the more pleasing she was to the eye.
Gui You decided that when he returned, he would officially take Su Xiaolu as his personal disciple. As for Su Chong, he had graduated and could establish his own sect. He was once his personal disciple.
Su Chong was talented, but Su Xiaolu was the most fated.
After watching them leave.
Only then did the fish people start to argue.
“Humans are too terrifying. We can’t form an alliance—”
“Humans are terrifying, which is why we need an alliance. At least, it was safe a few years ago. We don’t know anything about humans at all. We have to form an alliance to understand them. Only then can we find a way to deal with them in the future.”
“What’s wrong with that? At most, we’ll go deeper into the sea to build a home there so that humans can’t come so far—”
“I don’t think—”
At this moment, not only were the elders arguing, but all the fish clansmen present also expressed their thoughts.
The old king felt a headache coming on.
An Xiaoou also felt a headache coming on. This was probably the market she had seen in the past where people fought over customers over selling fish.
“Everyone, stop. Stop arguing.”
Yu Yan roared. He was the youngest prince. Since he had already spoken, the fish people fell silent.
Yu Yan walked up to An Xiaoou and asked seriously, “Xiaoou, is what that girl said true? Does she really have the ability to make us—not be able to reproduce?”
When Yu Yan asked this, all the fish people’s gazes turned to An Xiaoou.
An Xiaoou was very solemn. She said truthfully, “I’m not sure, but she’s a very powerful doctor. She’s a divine doctor. There’s no doctor among the fish people, but the spiritual liquid of the fish people’s marrow and the Spirit Stones they wear are another form of a doctor. Humans need a doctor to treat their injuries.”
“Furthermore, humans do have many mysterious medicines that can make beasts—extinct.”
An Xiaoou found it difficult to say these two words, but she was telling the truth.
