Infinitely Criticizing the Villain for Being Like My Ex-Boyfriend

Vio said, "Don't lie to me, grandma. That person has a strong mermaid pressure. It is our sacred object - and it can also open the king's 'Mermaid Mind'! Doesn't our mermaid corpse have a chance to be resurrected? It must be the Mermaid King who came back to help us!"

Kenshahua shook his head gently in the water. "I served under the Mermaid King Deep Blue for thirty years. No one knows better than me what kind of king he is. Even if he loses his memory, the instincts in his soul will not change. The one in front of us and our king are two completely different souls. What's more, the Mermaid King had already used up his chance to revive that time, so this corpse cannot be resurrected a second time."

Vio's lips trembled violently, and he looked at Xiao Ai with a confused look: "But - it's alive, it's still... playing with my hair..."

Everyone: "..."

"So, I am also curious." Kenshahua asked, "Who is it...? Why did it revive with the help of our king's corpse?"

In order to find the answer to this question, Ken Shahua chose to leave with Zhang Chunliang and others.

Zhang Chunliang grabbed Xiao Ai's rebellious fingers and looked at the slightly blooming flower tattoo on its cheek.

"...Are you the Mermaid King Shenlan?" Zhang Chunliang asked softly.

Xiao Ai tilted its head and looked at him, as if it didn't understand what he meant - the flower on its cheek didn't change at all.

Yes, if it was really the Mermaid King, the flower on its face should have blossomed when they were discussing Deep Blue's life experience, instead of just a little change until now...

However, the tattoo on Xiao Ai's face did react to the deep blue, which shows that its identity is related to the mermaid king.

Zhang Chunliang sighed softly. Although he had a premonition, he still felt a little regretful: "It seems that I can't be the mermaid queen..."

Kenshahua: “???”

"I don't understand!" Vio collapsed. "It used the bones of our king to revive. How could it not be the king's soul?!"

"It could be an ancient soul, a silent and lonely underwater volcano, a fish, a drowned passenger... but it won't be the Mermaid King." Kenshahua's voice was pleasant, with a gentle magnetism. "Deep Blue hates us so much that if it resurrects, the first thing it will do is to skin us alive."

That's true, after all, the mermaid treated Deep Blue like that.

"However, it is undeniable that it must be very powerful. Only an extremely powerful soul can control the king's body. It is good that it can move now. At least we can use it to re-enter the Holy Island." Kenshahua smiled gently.

"I don't quite understand what you're saying." Wang Shaofan couldn't help but ask Zhang Chunliang, "Is your boyfriend a fake of some big shot?"

Zhang Chunliang narrowed his eyes slightly and emphasized with some dissatisfaction: "It is Xiao Ai, it is not anyone's counterfeit."

Big Bone suddenly hugged him from behind, and rested his cold and hard head on his neck, rubbing it without any meaning.

"Well, then it's not true." Vio's expression was a little depressed. He looked at the two people hugging each other and murmured, "Anyway, I can't accept that our greatest king would be so... so humble to a human..."

"Love makes people humble." Kenshahua said, "You are a very interesting human being. You can actually accept the closeness of an unidentified soul...Aren't you afraid that it is a monster with ulterior motives?"

"The most sinister thing it has ever done to me is to try every means to feed a fluorescent blue luminous jellyfish into my mouth." Zhang Chunliang curled the corners of his lips helplessly.

——There are also various ugly seafoods that Zhang Chunliang doesn’t want to eat. Xiao Ai’s enthusiasm for feeding him is exactly the same as that of the Third Young Master and the python.

"Blue jellyfish? Glowing?" Kenshahua repeated doubtfully. It hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively, "Does the jellyfish have patterns on its body? Like snowflake patterns?"

Zhang Chunliang resisted Xiao Ai's sticky harassment and tried to recall the small jellyfish that he had only seen a few times. He nodded and said, "They are covered with white veins all over their bodies. They do look a bit like snowflakes and look a lot like jelly..."

Kenshahua fell silent for a moment.

In the water behind it, the two female mermaids who were as quiet as quails suddenly reacted violently, splashing the water loudly: "Snowflakes? Blue jellyfish?!"

"Is there any problem?" Zhang Chunliang asked.

“Of course—!” Philina screamed, “That’s the Snow Valley Jellyfish, a precious creature that only exists in the mermaid’s forbidden area!! Most mermaids can’t even see it! How could a human like you possibly get it?!”

Philena is the second daughter of a noble race of mermaids, which is why she was able to follow the leader, Kist, onto the ship. Even though she has a very noble status, she has only heard of this magical jellyfish from her elders.

This is a very difficult jellyfish to catch. Even the bravest warriors of the mermaid tribe can only barely catch some old and dying limbs.

Legend has it that by eating this jellyfish, mermaids can become like humans and never have to touch water again, living on land forever, while humans can breathe in water like fish without drowning.

Of course, this is only the main function of the Snow Valley Jellyfish. It is said that it can also cure all diseases and make mermaids no longer afraid of extreme cold. The more obvious the snowflake pattern on its body, the more powerful it is...

"Don't be so impatient, little girl." Kenshahua said calmly, "The Holy Island has been closed. The Snow Valley Jellyfish can only survive in the waters of the Holy Island. They may have caught some small jellyfish that look similar."

This is the most reliable explanation, and people no longer worry about this issue.

"In short, it is not our mermaid king." Kenshahua concluded, "but because it is using the remains of our king, everything in the mermaid tribe can be opened to you. We are willing to temporarily grant you the authority of the mermaid king."

These words were spoken generously and tolerantly, but Zhang Chunliang just smiled and did not expose Kenshahua's little thoughts.

Judging from the current situation, the mermaids are at a disadvantage. They are homeless and have lost important sacred objects, so they risked everything and ran onto the ship to seek revenge on the captain.

How could they not know that mermaids and humans were just materials for this mad captain's experiments?

That guy just happened to have mastered the method of suppressing the mermaids, so that up to now, the mermaids have only been hunting some humans to vent their anger, and have not posed any substantial threat to the ship.

Kenshahua needs Xiao Ai's help, and naturally also needs Zhang Chunliang.

This is why it is so generous and friendly to Zhang Chunliang and others.

"So now...what should we do?" Wang Shaofan looked at Zhang Chunliang.

Kenshahua's sudden riot disturbed the seemingly calm pool of sewage, and Zhang Chunliang's original idea of ​​breaking the deadlock was completely disrupted.

He thought for a moment and asked Kenshahua, "Have you seen the copper heart that was used as a key when I entered here just now?"

"...Yes, that's the heart we made for Deep Blue. It's placed together with Deep Blue's remains." Kenshahua said, "If you've read the Mermaid Chronicle, you probably know that when Deep Blue died...his heart disappeared. But in our formation to guard Mermaid Island, the most important thing is its heart."

So the mermaids melted the magical bronze they got from a shipwreck into a new heart and soaked it in dark blue blood for a whole year.

"Its aura can scare most mermaids. After the sacred object was lost, it also disappeared."

Zhang Chunliang nodded. This statement was similar to his guess. "Will melted this heart into many identical ornaments and distributed them on the ship to suppress the power of the mermaids. We can help you remove these hearts."

Ken Shahua's eyes were moistened by the pool water, and he stared at Zhang Chunliang deeply, and said slowly: "What price do we need to pay?"

For a moment, the atmosphere between mermaids and humans became subtly tense.

Xiao Ai gently patted the fish's tail and tilted her head to look at the several fish in the pond, seeming to be eager to move.
