Quick Transmigration: Hosts, We're Only Responsible for Counterattacking

Chapter 158 The World Has Mermaid Language (2)

Shen Yun flicked her light golden tail, looked at the fish swimming around it, and said nonchalantly, "I'm going to Yan Fa's house. I want to become his apprentice."

Aya nodded first, then looked at her in shock, "Bubble, you're a merman, you'll be coveted wherever you go."

A fish, swimming too happily, leaped high into the air and landed on Shenyun's tail. It trembled and shook, looking quite pitiful.

Shen Yun picked up its little tail and put it into the water with some disdain. It was red and tattered, not nearly as pretty as her tail.

"I know." She examined the tail carefully, then shook off the water droplets. A flash of pure white light appeared, and the tail transformed into a pair of long, slender, fair legs, covered by a light gold dress. "That's fine."

Aya couldn't resist touching it, then exclaimed in surprise, "Bubble, you're amazing!"

Shen Yun proudly raised her chin. "Of course I'm the best."

Merfolk tails can transform into legs at will, but the original owner thought that legs were too ugly, so she was unwilling to do so.

However, the name Bubble made Shen Yun feel depressed. As a mermaid, she should have chosen a more beautiful name. Why did it sound so casual?

"Aya, let's go to Yan Fa's house."

Upon hearing this, Aya's eyes immediately lit up with longing for the future. The reason was simple: they had fled the Nangong family with the determination to die, but if they could live, who would want to die?

Nangong and Yanfa each occupy half of the Xuantian Continent. On the surface, the two families are evenly matched, but in reality, the Nangong family has long been rotten inside, leaving only a huge empty shell.

The Yan family has produced many talented individuals, with countless people skilled in ancient martial arts.

The main reason why the two families were able to share the spoils was the terrain where the Nangong family was located. It was mostly plains with abundant resources, which made up for his shortcomings.

In the bustling market, Shen Yun sat with Ling Zhi at a wonton stall, eating wontons while watching the lively scene not far away.

The wonton stall has a great location, right next to the restaurant. I don't know how the restaurant manager tolerated it.

However, what dazzled Shen Yun was the ongoing excitement.

The tactic of selling oneself into servitude to bury one's father.

She had just seen the corpse lying there move slightly. Although it was springtime, there was still a chill in the air from time to time. The fact that she was kneeling on the ground dressed so thinly, wiping away tears, certainly attracted the attention of many young noblemen.

She stroked her chin and couldn't help but click her tongue twice. "If you want to look pretty, wear mourning clothes." There's definitely a reason why this saying exists. This color actually added three or four points to the girl's appearance.

However, if you look closely, you can still see the cunning in the girl's eyes.

He's probably a repeat offender, just trying to scam people.

If you really want to sell yourself, you might as well bring a real corpse.

With a "whoosh," Shen Yun finished the last bite of wonton soup, wiped his mouth, ordered a bowl of tofu pudding, and continued watching the show.

Aya, who was sitting next to him eating wontons, was a little shocked. Bubble had never been able to eat this much before.

Seeing the two young masters fight each other, and then the woman swearing to smash her head against a wall, the two young masters finally gave her money.

This was absolutely brilliant.

This is a real mess; we can't afford to mess with them.

After the two finished packing, they prepared to leave the city gate. Perhaps because of them, there were many more guards at the city gate.

However, even if Nangong Fangrui herself came here now, let alone looking at the portrait, she would not be able to recognize the two people in front of her as the people she wanted to capture.

A thick beard hung down his chin, and a large mole adorned his cheek. The guards, seeing this, quickly dismissed him with disdain. Aya didn't dare breathe a sigh of relief until she was far from the city gate.

"Bubble, it must be very difficult to become a disciple of the Yan family." Lingzhi was a little worried when she thought of this. Her martial arts skills were only at the beginner level, and she was just a maid serving others in the Nangong family.

Shen Yun paused, then suddenly realized a problem: the ancient martial arts training in this world all had secret manuals, which they certainly didn't have. As for the Nangong family's manual that Lingzhi used before, it naturally wouldn't be usable there either.

If she were to use her kung fu, the most likely outcome would be that she would be murdered and robbed.

This is very troublesome.

"How are the outer disciples?" Shen Yun looked over and pondered.

The primary purpose of selecting outer disciples is to serve others; occasionally, a few outstanding individuals will be chosen during the selection process.

"That's possible, but for someone like you with your looks, it might be difficult," Aya said with difficulty. As a servant girl, being too beautiful was a big no-no.

Shen Yun never intended to reveal his appearance. The reason was simple: the appearance of a mermaid was too enchanting, especially her voice, which was simply irresistible.

"I'm going to pretend to be a man and put a scar on my face." After saying that, Shen Yun looked at Lingzhi deeply, and then hesitated. Lingzhi was not only gentle in appearance, but also in personality. If she pretended to be a man, not only would others not believe it, but she herself would not believe it either.

"How about this, you and I will pretend to be brother and sister."

Aya's eyes lit up, and she nodded repeatedly.

The scene changes.

Shen Yun and Ling Zhi stood together at the foot of the mountain, with several other young men and women like them nearby.

Looking at the towering peaks reaching into the clouds and the rugged mountain roads.

The head of the Yan family must be mentally ill.

They were only there to become outer disciples, yet they still had to climb up step by step.

What kind of ridiculous rule is this? You only need to make some connections to get into the Nangong family. She even went to the beach before she left and collected a lot of gems there.

"Are you two also interested in joining Yanfa?" A girl dressed in coarse linen clothes walked forward with a smile, her hand unconsciously reaching out to him.

Shen Yun instinctively stepped back, and the girl's face stiffened.

Seeing this, Aya quickly tried to smooth things over, "I'm sorry, my brother isn't used to being touched."

"It's nothing, it's nothing." The girl seemed a little embarrassed, and after glancing at him again, she walked to the side.

Seeing her like this, Shen Yun looked at her with higher regard. Those standing at the foot of the mountain, unless they were crazy and just wanted to look at the scenery along the way, were basically there for the trial.

In other words, these individuals are all competitors to each other.

Shen Yun frowned and pulled Lingzhi closer to him. The mountain path was narrow, and there was a chance of falling if something went wrong.

She doesn't harm others, but she also won't let others harm her.

The mountain roads are rugged, and there are many animals in Yanbian, some common and some rare.

"Aiwan, let's take a break."

The girl frowned upon hearing this, but suppressed her displeasure. "Qian, we're not out here to play. If we're not careful, we'll fall behind. Don't you want to be arrested?"
