I didn't expect that I was the heartthrob.

I was shocked by his beauty just now and didn't notice it. Now when I picked him up, I saw that a large piece of flesh was missing from the fish tail that was pressed underneath him before. That place was dug out alive, and even the bones were exposed. The wound was truly shocking and horrible.

Which bastard actually hurt him like this!

Seeing that Jing Lian didn't even make a sound, Gu Lan carefully avoided that place, moved gently, and asked in a low voice: "Does it hurt?"

Jing Lian raised his eyes and looked at the female cultivator named Gu Lan. He was imprisoned, tortured, and had his flesh cut off alive in this place. He should have hated humans, but this female cultivator named Gu Lan actually felt sorry for him.

She probably doesn't know that eating raw mermaid flesh can gain supreme power.

Jing Lian thought a little evilly, what would she do if she knew? "It doesn't hurt. You know? Eating raw mermaid meat can gain divine power, which is very beneficial to cultivation."

Gu Lan pursed her lips, she knew this of course. In the original novel, the heroine later ate a bite of mermaid flesh, and that one bite allowed her to break through and advance directly. But doing this was really disgusting!

This Jing Lian is so stupid that he always says such things. No wonder a lot of meat has been dug out of his tail now.

"Don't ever say things like that again, otherwise those monks with bad intentions will definitely eat you alive. They can really do that! You'd better watch your mouth." Gu Lan advised earnestly.

......Jing Lian was stunned and closed his mouth, but a warm feeling flowed through his heart.

"Who hurt you? I'm going to avenge you! This man is so cruel that he imprisoned you and dug out your flesh! He's a pervert, so perverted. Don't let me run into him. If I run into him, I'll definitely chop him to death."

Gu Lan doesn't have any shortcomings, except that she gets easily excited. Take her reading for example. If she hadn't stayed up late every day because of being excited, she wouldn't have killed herself at such a young age.

Now when she met Jing Lian, she saw that he was extremely handsome, yet frail and pitiful, as if he was a treasure that had been treasured for many years and was now being ruined. She felt angry and distressed, and her eyes turned red with anger and she was gasping for breath.

There is nowhere to vent my anger.

Even though he knew that the other party might be far better than him, Gu Lan still couldn't help but want to find that bitch and tear her into pieces.

Jing Lian didn't expect that Gu Lan would be so angry about him that his hair almost stood up. He couldn't help but feel a little strange, but he just wanted to leave here quickly and didn't want to create any more trouble, so he put his hands on Gu Lan's eyes and stroked them gently.

Gu Lan only felt those hands, like soft seaweed gently caressing her eyes. Although they were cold, they were extremely soft and gentle. The anger in her heart gradually dissipated.

After calming down, Gu Lan knew that he was definitely not strong enough to defeat that man. The most important thing now was to rescue him, but there was not even a door here. How could he get out?

Seeing Gu Lan wandering around in the cave like a headless fly, Jing Lian pulled Gu Lan's clothes and pointed to a deep pool next to him.

"You mean we can get out there?"

Jing Lian nodded, but Gu Lan hesitated, "But I... I'm afraid of water. When I was a kid, I was playing by the swimming pool and fell into it and almost drowned. After that, I never dared to play by the water again, so I'm still a landlubber."

I don’t know what the swimming pool and landlubber Gu Lan was talking about, but Jing Lian knows that Gu Lan is afraid of water.

Jing Lian didn't want to make things difficult for her, so he struggled to get down and go over by himself.

Seeing him move like this, blood from his tail gushed out again, flowing to the ground like a stream. Gu Lan couldn't bear it, so she hurriedly said, "Don't move, I'll carry you down."

After walking a few steps to the edge of the pond and looking at the bottomless water, Gu Lan felt a little dizzy. He swallowed, took a few deep breaths, closed his eyes, and jumped into the water.

"Gulp gulp gulp gulp..." Gu Lan jumped into the pool and took several gulps of water. He splashed in the water and gradually sank.

It's over! Gu Lan thought.

After Jing Lian entered the water, he swam a few times and saw Gu Lan gurgling and unable to breathe. Her body was sinking, so he quickly took her into his arms.

Seeing that her little face was flushed red and she looked like she was about to suffocate, he didn't think much and lowered his head and put his mouth close to hers.

Gu Lan's eyes widened as he kept getting closer and closer, so close that she could see her panic in his pupils, and she struggled to back away.

Jing Lian did not allow her to refuse. He held her tightly in his arms and covered her with his lips.

Gu Lan only felt something soft on her lips. Although the pale but soft lips were cold, they brought traces of oxygen into her lungs. Gu Lan had already held her breath to the limit, so she greedily inhaled the precious oxygen.

After a while, Jing Lian let go of Gu Lan, and then blew a breath at Gu Lan. Gu Lan gradually stopped moving, and his eyelids drooped.

Mermaids are extremely loyal throughout their lives. If they have physical contact with a person, they will be exclusively partnered with that person for life and will never betray them.

Looking at Gu Lan, the disciple of Qianji Sect in front of him, Jing Lian gave her his first kiss without hesitation. She was his savior and so lively and lovely. The moment Jing Lian kissed her, his heart was truly moved.

After the kiss, he became shy again, and hurriedly knocked her out, trying to calm himself down.

After some adjustments, Jing Lian spit out a small white bead from his mouth. The bead slowly entered Gu Lan's mouth. After a while, the bead came out again and entered Jing Lian's mouth again.

The bead turned out to be Jing Lian's soul bead. He was seriously injured and the man cut off several pieces of his flesh, so now it is only the size of a little fingernail.

The soul bead circulated in Gu Lan's body for a week to help her breathe in the water.

"Wake up." Gu Lan slowly opened his eyes in response to a call as gentle as the spring breeze.

At this time, the mirror swimming in the water is another kind of beauty.

His black hair fluttered wildly in the water, and his handsome golden-green eyes were no longer lifeless, but full of spirit. Fan-shaped fins grew behind his ears, and the light blue fins were spread out, dotted with several pearls of different sizes. Although his fish tail was broken, it swayed gracefully.

Gu Lan was so beautiful that she almost fainted. She took a deep breath to adjust herself before she could speak a complete sentence. She said, "I didn't expect the mermaid to be so beautiful!"

After saying this, Gu Lan suddenly realized something and hurriedly touched his neck and behind his ears. He didn't feel anything like fish gills, so he felt relieved and looked at Jing Lian again.

"From now on, you can breathe in water." Jing Lian saw her looking at him, so he explained, "So you don't have to be afraid of water anymore. You can move freely in water just like on land, or even more freely than on land."

Gu Lan swung her arms and legs and indeed felt free. Without gravity, everything felt light and floating. With a little effort she began to swim as if she were in space. After playing for a while with curiosity and excitement, she hurriedly thanked Jing Lian.

Jing Lian smiled gently.

He was very grateful in his heart. Regardless of whether it was the reincarnation tree that sent her to help him, Gu Lan was his savior, and he could never repay her kindness. Just now, he kissed Gu Lan and used the soul bead to make a royal mark on her consciousness, which was to acknowledge that Gu Lan was his queen.
