I became a mermaid egg and saved the Imperial Marshal

Ever since that day, the little dumpling has become particularly attached to Bai Heng. He would always hang on to Bai Heng, almost like a neck pendant.

If it had been in the past, Bai Heng would have definitely scolded him, but when he thought about how little time he had left to spend with him, he just let him do as he pleased.

On this day, Little Tuanzi hugged Bai Heng's neck as usual, hanging on his back and drowsy. While Bai Heng was handling official business, he would occasionally pay attention to his condition.

Seeing that he began to doze off, Bai Heng put down the pen in his hand, then gently pried open his arms and carried him to the conch bed beside him.

Little Tuanzi didn't sleep well and showed signs of waking up as soon as he left Bai Heng.

Seeing this, Bai Heng placed his hand on his chest and patted it gently, chanting the mermaid tribe's soothing song, which finally calmed him down.

After Xiaotuanzi fell asleep, he sat beside the bed for a long time until the elders came to urge him, and then he called Hongqiao.

"When His Highness wakes up later, if he makes a fuss about looking for me, I will take him to the main hall to find Gui Fang."

"But Master Guifang has gone..." Hongqiao suddenly stopped talking halfway, then bowed her head respectfully, "Yes!"

Bai Heng looked at the little mermaid on the bed tenderly. He seldom showed such emotions directly, and only after the little mermaid fell asleep could he glimpse some of it.

Hongqiao stood quietly aside, quietly feeling this warm moment.

It was visibly that everyone was busy these days. Although she didn't know what happened in the Eternal Sea, she could also smell the atmosphere of tension.

Thinking of the prophesied date that was gradually approaching, Hongqiao's gaze became firm.

Bai Heng helped the little boy tidy up his messy hair, then took out his favorite little doll and put it in his arms. Then he looked away and left the room.

-

Polar region.

This is an underwater ice field and also the core of Departure.

At this time, the elders stood in unison on the edge of the cliff of the canyon, and everyone's face was filled with worry.

The ice-blue light coming from the bottom of the cliff illuminated the entire area. The light came from a crack at the bottom of the cliff.

A steady stream of energy gushed out from the cracks, floating on the sea water like a burning flame.

And the crack is still extending upwards and expanding.

"How could this be?"

"If this continues, it won't be long before it affects the Eye of Eternity."

"yes……"

As soon as everyone finished speaking their worries, they saw Bai Heng crossing the water.

"Master, what should we do? The cracks are expanding so rapidly. I'm afraid that before we can correct the deviation, the Eye of Eternity will be completely swallowed up."

"It seems that it is indeed affected by that foreign object..."

"If that's the case, then he can't be kept here!"

"Young Master, please make a decision as soon as possible!" Several elders said in unison, looking at Bai Heng with burning eyes.

Bai Heng was silent for a moment, then said, "This is your Highness's opportunity, so don't act rashly."

"But if we continue to do this, not only will the Eye of Eternity be unable to sustain itself, but the entire Departure Realm will also fall apart. When the seal is destroyed, won't all our efforts be in vain?"

"That's right. Even though this opportunity is rare, we should put the overall situation first at this moment."

Several people were arguing fiercely. Just as Bai Heng was thinking, one of them suggested: "We don't have to wipe them out completely. We just need to expel them until the prophecy day comes."

"This way, it won't be considered as destroying the opportunity. Isn't it the best of both worlds?"

Hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.

Bai Heng did not answer immediately. After thinking for a moment, he said, "I will consider this matter, but the appearance of the cracks is complicated and cannot be explained in a few words. The most important thing right now is to slow down the expansion of the cracks."

After saying this, he looked at Ming Xiu, who had appeared behind the crowd at some point, and inquired with his eyes.

But Ming Xiu, who understood what he meant, shook his head regretfully: "I can't resist this power."

Hearing that he seemed to be hiding something in his words, Bai Heng's eyes darkened slightly, but he did not continue to ask.

"Even Ming Xiu said so. How can it be easy for us to stop him?" someone murmured to himself.

For a while, there were sighs one after another, and everyone was at a loss.

At this time Bai Heng turned and faced the canyon. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly exerted force.

The sea water in his hands was like a huge shield, crashing into the crack.

The huge suction force forced the elders to open their barriers to stabilize their bodies.

However, when the huge impact hit the crack, instead of dispersing the raging ice flame, it quickly bounced back.

Bai Heng stepped back half a meter to avoid the attack, but this test made him realize the gap in strength.

Then he turned around and looked at everyone: "I'll ask you to lend me a hand later."

"Master, have you thought of a solution?" someone asked curiously.

Bai Heng looked at the crack and said softly, "Since we can't stop the crack from expanding, we can only separate the nearby sea area."

"This……"

Everyone looked at each other, all shocked by these horrifying remarks.

But after the shock, everyone's face showed a desperate expression.

"Just tell me what to do. Even if it costs us our lives, we will stop this crack here."

"That's right!"

Bai Heng looked around at the few people, then nodded slightly to Ming Xiu.

Ming Xiu gave instructions, and the figure gradually faded, and finally turned into a scepter and flew into Bai Heng's hand.

Bai Heng came to the edge of the cliff with the scepter in hand.

A dazzling golden light emanated from the scepter, transforming into streams of light that wrapped around his body. Behind him, the elders stood in a row, ready for battle.

-

In the underwater palace, little Dumpling woke up slowly. As soon as he opened his eyes, he subconsciously searched for Bai Heng's figure.

Hongqiao had been guarding beside him, and swam over when she saw him wake up.

"The Imperial Master is handling official business. Before leaving, he specifically allowed Your Highness to go and play with Lord Guifang today." Hong Qiao deliberately said in a relaxed tone.

The little girl pouted, but surprisingly didn't cry.

Seeing this, Hongqiao breathed a sigh of relief and then took clothes to help him change.

"Why are you so well behaved today?" After changing his clothes, Hongqiao couldn't help but pinching his cheek and joked.

The little girl looked listless, but she still replied softly, "Always good!"

"Tsk tsk... let me see what this face is made of, see if it's as thick as sticky rice cake." Hongqiao pretended to hold up his face and was about to examine it carefully.

The little dumpling got irritated and rushed towards her with a puffed up face.

Hongqiao seemed to have expected this and grabbed him and held him in her arms.

When the little girl struggled and couldn't get away, she said angrily, "Sister Hongqiao is a bad guy!"

"Hehe, since you've discovered me, I'm going to sell you off today."

As he said this, he shook his head and tail and swam out with the little dumpling.

After all, he is still a child. After such a commotion, the little girl's spirits were obviously much better.

The two of them swam out of the palace while playing and playing. At this moment, the little dumpling suddenly stopped and looked fixedly in a certain direction.

Hongqiao noticed his abnormality and was about to ask when suddenly there was a strong vibration.

The surrounding coral reefs broke and fell off due to the vibration, and the sea creatures fled in all directions in an instant.

Hongqiao quickly pulled Xiaotuanzi to an open place.

As soon as they left, a turbulent undercurrent swept over the coral reefs, sending sand and gravel flying, and the nearby sea water suddenly became turbid.

At the same time, Hongqiao sensed strange energy fluctuations coming from the direction of the palace.

She frowned slightly, then turned to the little girl and said, "It's Hai Zhen, Your Highness, please wait for me here for a while."

After saying that, she pulled the little ball into a patch of glowing grass and erected a barrier around it.

The view here is wide, there is no falling debris, and there is no need to worry about being swept away by undercurrents.

Before leaving, Hongqiao reminded him again, "Don't run around. I'll be back soon."
