I became a mermaid egg and saved the Imperial Marshal

A few hours later, in the treatment room.

After checking Qi Yan's physical condition, Li Jia finally had the opportunity to talk to him alone.

While sorting out the examination data, Li Jia asked tentatively: "Why does the baby call me Master?"

Qi Yan buttoned up his clothes and jumped down from the examination table: "Young Master is Young Master, and..."

He walked towards Liga, his royal blood flowing naturally, and his aura was intimidating without even being angry.

"I have been concerned about why the mermaid blood in your body has become so thin. What did those humans do to you?"

Li Jia was shocked by his aura, and the resonance from deep in his blood made him want to surrender.

It was not until then that Li Jia truly realized that the person in front of him was no longer the well-behaved and sweet child he used to be.

Qi Yan now seemed to have been reborn. Not only did his aura become more imposing, but even his eyes became extremely sharp.

Li Jia looked at his pupils. Although they had returned to normal at this time, if one looked closely, one could still see dark gold floating faintly in the bottom of his eyes.

It is like crystal clear glass, breathtaking.

He stepped forward and held Qi Yan's hand. Fortunately, Qi Yan did not reject his closeness, which made Li Jia happy, but also deepened his speculation about himself.

Pulling him to sit on the bed, Li Jia thought for a while and said, "Baby, you think I'm the Right Priest of Bai Heng, right?"

According to the records in the Mermaid Chronicles, Bai Heng was both the right priest and the junior teacher appointed by the Mermaid King, responsible for assisting and teaching the new king.

After giving birth, the queen followed the mermaid king, leaving behind the mermaid eggs that had not yet hatched. From then on, Bai Heng took on the responsibility of raising the mermaid eggs, acting as both father and mother.

As the only hope of the mermaid tribe for hundreds of years, the mermaid egg has been endowed with intelligence since birth, and has been taught by Bai Heng until the mermaid tribe completely declined and Bai Heng activated the seal.

So, if Qi Yan awakened and recalled his memories before being sealed, then Li Jia would naturally think that he mistook himself for Bai Heng.

However, upon hearing this, Qi Yan frowned and said coldly and firmly: "You have Bai Heng's aura in your body. I will not make a mistake."

Li Jia was stunned. Looking at his sharp eyes, he didn't know how to start for a moment.

"Why do you want to deny your identity? Young Master seems to have changed a lot. In the past, you only called me Yan'er or Your Highness."

Qi Yan stood up, lowered his eyes and stared at Li Jia with a scorching gaze.

Li Jia felt a pang in his heart, and now he finally understood Huo Linyuan's feelings a little.

He let out a long sigh and said, "Baby, do you really not remember anything? I'm not Bai Heng, I'm Daddy."

……

Several hours later, after Li Jia told Qi Yan the truth, Qi Yan remained silent for a long time.

His expression was calm and peaceful, but Li Jia discovered that deep in his calm eyes, there was a faint light trembling.

This discovery immediately touched the softest part of Li Jia's heart.

No matter whether it was Qi Yan in the past or the new king of the mermaid clan who controls the power of the sea god, they were still just children who had not experienced much of the world after all.

Even though he is a completely different person now and he was in the past, even though he now exudes the spirit and demeanor of a king.

But after hearing the news that the mermaids were destroyed and Bai Heng sacrificed his life to open the seal, he still inadvertently revealed his emotions.

Li Jia raised his hand, wanting to rub Qi Yan's head like he did before, but when he was halfway up, he suddenly changed direction and finally landed on Qi Yan's shoulder.

"There are many more things. I think it would be better if Marshal Huo told you in person."

He kept the emotional history of Qi Yan and Huo Linyuan. Firstly, only the parties involved knew these things best, and secondly, he wanted to create conditions for the two of them.

Because Li Jia knew very well that if he wanted Qi Yan to regain her previous memories, only Huo Linyuan could do it.

However, Qi Yan quickly regained her composure and said indifferently, "Being picked up by humans and hatched by humans, no matter whether all this really happened or not, it is just a strange experience for me."

"But the mermaids have always been clear about gratitude and grudges. In return, I will save that human, and from then on, our grudges will be resolved and we will have no further connection."

After Qi Yan finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave. Now he wanted to go back to the Eternal Sea. Even though it had been frozen for ten thousand years, it was always the mermaid's destination, his home, and his mission.

Before Li Jia could stop him, Qi Yan had already resolutely opened the door.

At this time, outside the door, Huo Linyuan was standing at the door with a pale face. He didn't know how long he had been standing there, nor did he know whether he had heard the conversation between Li Jia and Qi Yan.

When Qi Yan saw him, her expression was a little surprised, but it only lasted for a moment.

Then, he walked directly in front of Huo Linyuan and looked at him.

Although he was looking up, the aura around him was not weak at all.

"Money, energy, medicine or healing power, as long as you ask me, I will definitely do it. The mermaids never owe favors to others."

Qi Yan's tone was flat, without a trace of emotion.

Huo Linyuan lowered his eyes, unable to see his expression clearly.

After waiting for a long time without receiving a reply, Qi Yan frowned impatiently.

"When you have made up your mind, come to find me in the Eternal Sea."

After saying that, he planned to pass Huo Linyuan.

But the next moment his wrist was grabbed and he was pushed against the wall.

Huo Linyuan stared at him: "I don't want anything."

After a slight pause, his fingertips gently stroked Qi Yan's cheek: "Only you."

Those beautiful eyes were very close to Qi Yan. Huo Linyuan's voice was very soft, but it revealed infinite tenderness.

But no one noticed that there was an imperceptible tremor hidden in the lingering whispers.

At this moment, Huo Linyuan's pupils had turned into a red color that was almost black.

Being stared at by such a pair of eyes, Qi Yan suddenly felt a palpitation.

After a moment of distraction, he directly struck Huo Linyuan in the chest.

Due to congenital deficiencies, Qi Yan's body did not have much strength, so in order to break free from the restraints, he used his mental power in this palm.

Huo Linyuan took two steps back, with a line of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

For the mermaids who always pay attention to etiquette and are proud by nature, Huo Linyuan's behavior is undoubtedly a great offense.

What's more, Qi Yan is a member of the supreme royal family. His repeated forceful approaches have already lowered Qi Yan's impression of humans.

But as the hope of the mermaid tribe, Qi Yan has been taught various etiquette since birth, taught how to be calm, how to hide his emotions, and how to become a king.

So even if he was extremely angry and upset, he still maintained his composure on the surface.

After giving Huo Linyuan a cold look, he left the scene without saying a word.

In fact, if you look closely, you will find that Qi Yan's steps are very fast, just like his mood at the moment, irritable, resistant, and eager to escape.

Little did he know that it was this escape that precisely revealed his inner turmoil.
