Chapter 2141: Sisters of One Heart Pt. 2

“I’ve been searching for clues about where you could be, thinking you had to have felt really helpless. A few days ago, I received news that you seemed to have appeared near the shore, so I wanted to save you. But rather than finding you, I ended up running into those guys’ subordinates,” Shang Liuyu said angrily. “I don’t know what happened to the Yaksha Ocean Patrol, but they actually won’t die. A moment of carelessness resulted in my capture.”

Shang Hongyu recalled the situation near the restaurant. If not for Zu An’s prompt appearance, she'd likely have been captured by the Yaksha Ocean Patrol as well. However, her little sister had been captured instead. The activity they caused had likely ended up drawing the attention of a lot of strong cultivators. Unfortunately, the two just happened to have missed each other. Had she reunited with her little sister, with Zu An there, there was no way Shang Liuyu would have been captured.

But now that she thought about it, if her little sister had been there, perhaps she would have been an outsider considering how close the other two were. She wouldn’t have been able to becas close to Zu An as she was now…

Even though she continued to tell herself that, she still couldn't help but recall her twith Zu An…

“Big sis, how were you caught?” Shang Liuyu asked curiously.

“I was seriously injured. A human who was greedy for the bounty ended up capturing me.” Shang Hongyu sighed.

“We both really suffered…” Shang Liuyu beca bit dejected as she asked, “That Dragon King should be fake, right?”

Shang Hongyu voiced her agreement. “He’s colluding with Ka Qier and those guys.”

Outside, Ka Qier narrowed his eyes.

Zu An asked with a smile, “Did you think she would really help us fool her little sister so quickly?”

Ka Qier nodded in agreement. With Shang Hongyu’s usual personality, he would have suspected that something was wrong if she decided to cooperate in fooling her little sister so quickly.

“Has brother-in-law already met an unfortunate end?” Shang Liuyu asked.

Shang Hongyu’s eyes reddened. Everything boded ill for the Dragon King. Even though the two of them weren’t deeply in love, they had been married for so many years. There was still at least a bit of familial connection between them. Now that she thought about his fate, she was still extremely broken-hearted.

But when she thought about their plans, she couldn't say that directly. She could only say ambiguously, “I don’t know either. I hope he can cback and save us one day.”

“I fear that the chances aren’t too great.” Shang Liuyu remained extremely cool-headed. “Big sis, don’t worry. I already sent a message asking Ah Zu for help a few days ago. Once he receives the message, he'll definitely save us.”

Zu An was startled when he heard her.

Ka Qier frowned when he heard those words. He whispered to Zu An, “The Ah Zu she is speaking of should be the human and fiend sides’ regent. If he really comes, things will indeed beca bit tricky.”

Zu An harrumphed in dissatisfaction. “With the two of us here and so many powerful cultivators from the Ocean races, what is there to fear?”

“Be that as it may, that guy already killed the War Priest and a bunch of other strong beings. We really can’t be careless,” Ka Qier said with a serious expression.

“Tis pressing, so we have to move up the plan. You need to work harder,” Ka Qier said with a worried expression. He had clearly becnervous when he heard that Zu An was going to learn of the situation on this side.

Zu An was speechless. He could only say, “I’ll do my best.”

“Not only do you have to do your best, you have to finish in the shortest amount of time.” Ka Qier harrumphed. “If you can’t handle it, I can send sguys over to help. They’ve lusted after the Mermaid Queen for a long ttoo.”

Zu An’s expression changed. He said with a cold snort, “She’s mine. I don’t need anyone else’s help. Besides, with the queen’s personality, that’d only end up putting our plan at risk.”

Ka Qier nodded. “What you're saying makes ssense. I was just too anxious. You still look like her husband, so she can fool herself. If others join in, with the Mermaid race’s pride and how much they value their chastity, she might just end her own life… How about this? I’ll bring you a few more bottles of Desires Unleashed Dew and give you sNine Flavor Earth Emperor Pills to help you nourish your body. You must make the queen cooperate as quickly as possible. Heh, that Dragon King prepared quite a few nourishing items in his palace, but I didn’t expect them all to end up benefiting you.”

Zu An was speechless. If he still refused at this point, that could just draw the other party’s suspicion.

…

Meanwhile, Shang Hongyu was about to say something, but then stopped. When she saw how worried her little sister was, she really wanted to tell her that the Ah Zu she was talking about was right outside. But she knew that every single movement she made was being monitored. In the end, she didn’t dare to speak the truth, replying, “I hope so. But is that guy really that amazing?”

She had only heard her little sister talk about Zu An from tto tin the past, but now, she actually really wanted to know everything about him.

Shang Liuyu’s sullen expression gave way to a bit of a smile. “When I just met him, he was completely weak and powerless, and yet he was completely full of himself… Actually, it would be more accurate to describe him as being completely shameless.”

Shang Hongyu nodded in complete agreement.

“I already knew back then that he would definitely becextraordinary. Whether or not one is strong isn’t decided just by cultivation and strength. What's more important is whether or not one has a strong heart. As long as someone has that, even if they start out weak, they'll becstrong in the future.” When she recalled the past, Shang Liuyu’s expression becextremely gentle. “That guy didn’t disappoint me. Later, he becso strong, strong to the point that I didn’t dare to believe it.”

“I find it really hard to believe too…” Shang Hongyu mumbled.

And yet, whether it was Shang Liuyu inside or Ka Qier outside, neither one of them sensed the strangeness in her words.

“I believe that with his strength, together with his natural intelligence and wit, he'll definitely find a way to deal with the situation on this side. The only thing I’ve been worried about is…” Shang Liuyu said with an expression of concern. “I’m worried about whether he’ll be able to cin time.”

Forget about whether or not he’d be able to receive the letter at such a distance, even if he did, the Ocean races were so far away. Just the travel alone would take stime. By then, the dust would have long since settled.

When she saw her sister’s expression, Shang Hongyu felt her heart soften. She helped her comb her hair while saying reassuringly, “Don’t worry. In the past, you toldhe was a man who creates miracles. He should be able to successfully save you too.”

Outside, Ka Qier sneered. Perhaps the queen was saying to herself that this was to save her little sister, but she had probably already realized that she herself had already fallen and there was no way back.

Inside, Shang Liuyu just thought of it as her sister trying to cheer her up and didn’t think too much of it.

“By the way, why did your brother-in-law leave the crown with you?” Shang Hongyu asked, causing Ka Qier's ears to perk up.
