Crazy involution in male-oriented novels, my senior brother has set his sights on me

"No, it's still too dangerous there, brother, don't go."

Even though his senior brother agreed straightforwardly, Lin Hao still rejected his proposal without hesitation.

"Little Junior Brother is not..."

Before Lin Jinxing finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lin Hao, "I was just talking casually. It's still too dangerous there. I don't think it's a big deal if Long Xiao is not here, but if Senior Brother gets hurt, I will feel heartbroken."

As he spoke, Lin Hao pointed to his chest and continued, "Brother, I think you don't want me to feel bad, right?"

After hearing what Lin Hao said, Lin Jinxing felt even softer in his heart, as if being gently brushed by a feather. He smiled softly and said, "Okay! Senior Brother will never make Junior Brother sad."

Seeing his senior brother laughing, Lin Hao also started laughing.

At this time, Lin Hao asked a question, "Brother, why do you think the mermaids live in the Chaos Sea? Although I don't know what the Chaos Sea looks like, it is said that even those who enter the Void Refining Realm cannot predict their life or death."

Lin Hao once studied the books in the Canghai Wuya Library. Although there were records about mermaids in them, they were not in detail.

Lin Jinxing was not surprised to hear Lin Hao's question.

Although the junior brother has learned a lot of knowledge through books, he still lacks experience. Some things cannot be learned by just reading behind closed doors.

For example, the mermaids. This is another reason why Lin Jinxing wants to bring Lin Hao out for training.

Cultivation is not just about seclusion. Going out to experience and see the other side of the world will often bring different insights to the cultivator.

"There is indeed no record of mermaids in books. Mermaids live longer than most humans. Humans who don't practice can only live for a few decades, but mermaids can live for 500 years."

Lin Hao was surprised and said, "Five hundred years?! If they can practice, wouldn't they live longer than humans?"

Lin Jinxing then explained to his junior fellow apprentice: "It's not that simple. Although mermaids have a longer lifespan than humans, they cannot practice cultivation."

"How can it be impossible to practice? Has no merman ever tried and succeeded?"

Now Lin Hao was even more surprised. Those monsters could practice, so why couldn't the mermaids?

At this moment, Lin Hao stared at him with his eyes wide open, looking at him with curiosity on his face. Lin Jinxing found him cute no matter how he looked at him.

He couldn't help but pinch her soft and delicate cheek and said, "Although the voice of the mermaid has a magical power that can bewitch people, it is indeed impossible to cultivate. It is said that many mermaids have tried, but ultimately failed. It seems that the energy that sustains life in their bodies and the spiritual energy repel each other, which makes it impossible for them to cultivate."

"But if that's all, there's no need to hide in a place like the Chaos Sea where there's a chance you might never return, right?"

Hearing Lin Hao's question, Lin Jinxing continued to explain: "Indeed, although mermaids cannot practice, they are full of treasures. Junior brother, you only know that the dragon silk will not get wet when it enters water, but do you know its other functions?"

Lin Hao shook his head honestly.

Lin Jinxing said: "Although the dragon silk is thin, its defensive power is stronger than most defensive magic weapons. There are also pearls made from the tears of the mermaids. Although the mermaids cannot practice, the pearls they shed are wrapped with the purest spiritual energy. There is also a legend that the tears shed by the mermaids are actually their lives."

Lin Hao suddenly realized and said: "I understand. Such a mermaid who is full of treasures but has no ability to protect herself will naturally be coveted by everyone."

Lin Jinxing nodded and said, "That's right. That's why the mermaids would only risk moving to the chaotic sea when they had no other choice."

"After listening to what Senior Brother said, I really want to meet a mermaid."

Although he said this, Lin Hao's words were mostly joking. It should be impossible for the mermaids hiding in the chaotic sea to come out.

The chaotic sea is a place where even those who are powerful in the Void Refinement Realm may die if they enter.

Instead of thinking about those things, you might as well think about how to find the Water Spirit Herb.

Lin Hao looked at the endless sea and felt a little worried for a moment. Where should he go to find the Water Spirit Herb?

At this moment, on this quiet and peaceful sea, the two heard the voices of several people.

"I caught it! I didn't expect there really were mermaids here!"

Mermaid?

Hearing these two words, Lin Hao and Lin Jinxing looked at each other, with surprise in their eyes.

They never imagined that they would meet a real mermaid just after discussing it.

Lin Hao: “…”

Does this mean that my wish has come true?

But it’s always good to see the mermaids. Lin Hao excitedly pulled Lin Jinxing up and flew towards the direction of the sound on his sword.

When it comes to mermaids, the discussion continues.

"Keep your voice down! What if someone hears us?"

"This isn't the first time I've seen a mermaid. Am I too excited?"

"Indeed, let alone him, I even want to scream. This is a living mermaid! As long as we have her, we will have countless wealth."

"We have been observing her for several years. Although she comes ashore every month, she is always protected by monks from Xinghua Tower. Only when she swims out of the chaotic sea and reaches the shore will it be the best time for us to take action!"

"Brother is wise. As long as this mermaid is here, we will have an endless supply of spirit stones!"

When Lin Hao and Lin Jinxing arrived, they saw a fish covered by a fishing net. A fish tail as beautiful and dreamy as the ocean was struggling to break free from the fishing net.

The blue scales were scraped to the ground one by one as the creature struggled.

Threads of blood mixed with the seawater from the mermaid's body flowed onto the ground.

Her arms, as smooth and delicate as lotus roots, were constantly tearing at the fishing nets. Her sky-blue hair, as long and curly as seaweed, was scattered down, covering her face and the exposed fair skin.

The beautiful face that was struggling was revealed to everyone.

There was an expression of fear on her beautiful face, and her blue eyes, as mysterious as the sea, contained not only panic but also a hint of innocence that came from not knowing the world.

"Please, let me go. I have pearls here. If you want them, I'll give them all to you."

The voice of the mermaid always has a magical power that makes people sink, and the crying voice at this time arouses the desire in the hearts of several people.

One of them couldn't help but swallow his saliva and said to the leader, "Brother, now that we have captured her, why don't we taste her first?"

Another person also agreed: "That's right, big brother, why don't we let everyone have a taste of this beauty first?"

Seeing that everyone was eager to try something, the leader also felt a little tempted. It would be a shame not to try something so beautiful, so he nodded in agreement.

"Okay, but don't go too far. After all, our prosperity for the rest of our lives depends on this baby."

Seeing that the eldest brother agreed, several people rubbed their hands and gradually approached the mermaid.
