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

Chapter 165 The World Has Mermaid Language (9)

The sleeping child stubbornly kept raising its tail, and Yan Fa'an had no choice but to hug it tightly every time the tail raised again.

Feeling the struggle in his arms, Yan Fa'an lost his composure for the first time.

Somewhat disastrous?

This merman's personality is completely different from what he read in the book.

Like a lively carp.

With this thought in mind, Yan Fa'an's eyes became serious. Could this be a carp spirit?
My head rests on the green grass, and my eyes gaze at the azure sky.

Its tail was half-submerged in the river, and transparent water droplets accumulated inside its scales, shimmering in the sunlight.

A long, dark snake swam slowly over, and upon seeing such a large prey, its mouth immediately watered, its cold eyes filled with covetousness.

It first lowered its body, then suddenly lunged forward, opened its mouth wide, revealing two sharp teeth, and bit down hard on its coveted prey.

"Ow..."

Shen Yun rose from the ground, staring in shock at his legs—no, at his tail.

Yan Fa'an held her tail.

!!!

???

Is she still half asleep, or has the world gone mad?

"Master, is there something you need?" The guard outside hesitated for a long time before speaking, because he was sure that the call might have been made by the master and that other person.

Yan Fa'an came back to his senses and said calmly, "It's nothing, just stay away from here."

Guard: I always feel like I'm being disliked.

"Master, head of the family." Shen Yun bit her finger, looking at the candle holder next to her with a conflicted expression.

Can a severe blow to the head cause someone to lose their memory?

“Bubble, you’re a mermaid,” Yan Fa’an said, touching his tail again before confirming.

If the place he touched were a leg, it would be near his ankle.

Shen Yun retracted her tail, trying her best to cover herself with her torn clothes. She remained calm and said, "I'm not."

Yan Fa'an paused for a moment, then his tone became even more firm, "You are."

Then he added, "If you're not a mermaid, are you some kind of spirited crucian carp?"

Which sounds more sophisticated, a carp spirit or a mermaid?
Without a doubt, Shen Yun hesitated for only a moment before saying, "I am a merman."

Her watery eyes looked over, and every cell in her body seemed to be saying seriously, "Believe me, eating mermaid flesh won't grant you immortality, and mermaid flesh tastes terrible."

Upon hearing this, Yan Fa'an subconsciously replied, "You've tried it?"

Shen Yun: "..."

Is she really that shameless in his eyes to eat the flesh of her own kind?
At this moment, the light golden tail had gradually transformed into long, white legs. Yan Fa'an clenched and unclenched his fists upon seeing this, his eyes filled with a faint sense of reluctance.

Sensing this, Shen Yun began to negotiate, "Patriarch, could you please not reveal this situation?"

Yan Fa'an thought to himself, "Why would I tell anyone about this?" but what he actually said was, "What good would it do me if I didn't tell anyone?"

"I have several boxes of gems, which I wish to present to you one by one." This is true. Mermaids can come and go freely in the sea, and the sea is never short of gold and silver treasures.

Yan Fa'an tapped his fingers, his tone indifferent, seemingly uninterested, "I'm not interested in material possessions."

After speaking, he glanced casually at her legs, his eyes dimming slightly.

"Then let me pet your tail for a bit?" Shen Yun tentatively suggested. He thought Yan Fa'an would refuse at the banquet, but to his surprise, Yan Fa'an frowned deeply, his face full of difficulty.

"If you insist on this, then I will grant your wish." Yan Fa'an said, glancing at her with a look of helplessness.

Shen Yun chuckled twice, a slight smile playing on his lips. "I often hear people talking about the family head when I'm out here."

Yan Fa'an's ears twitched.

"It is said that the head of the family is the most righteous person in the world."

Although he didn't speak, his face clearly showed his satisfaction.

"I would certainly not hold such a trivial matter against my subordinates."

His usually calm face seemed to have cracked slightly.

So if he were to be so calculating, he wouldn't be a person of great principle.

While he was deep in thought, Shen Yun moved her hand, and the dim candlelight immediately disappeared, plunging the room into darkness. "Master, it's still early; it's not dawn yet."

Yan Fa'anyan: "..."

Although he still had a lot to say, how could he continue speaking in the current situation?

In the darkness, a hint of confusion flickered in his eyes. Was he... being rejected again?

Uh, why is it "again"?
Yan Fa'an never liked to think too much about things that were too complicated, so after hesitating for a while, he put the matter out of his mind.

The next morning, Shen Ran watched as the person floated out of the room, his expression having changed from shock to indifference.

Anyway, he's not the one who should be most anxious.

Shen Yun then bought dozens more pairs of pants. Her transformation didn't cause any other problems, except for the wear and tear on her pants.

Less than half a month later, Ai Wan brought dozens of disciples from the Nangong family to visit.

Shen Yun stood on the high place and looked at the woman who slowly walked in. He was a little stunned. No matter what, the change was really quite big.

Unlike the somewhat unkempt and dark-skinned girl from before, Ai Wan is now as fair as if she were carved from white jade. Her skin glows slightly in the sunlight, and her cheeks are adorned with two pale pink blushes, like peach blossoms.

Her full head of black hair was simply tied back with a hair crown, the two ends of which were adorned with a vermilion teardrop-shaped gemstone. A thin, long silver chain hung from her small earlobes, ending at her collarbone. Every part of her was perfect.

"What if she makes a big movement during the competition and the earring hits her face?" Shen Yun asked, stroking his chin with particular seriousness.

2345: […]

What should it do if the host says that and it can already picture the scene in its mind?
[She probably wouldn't wear something this long during a competition?] If it really is this long, it might not only hit herself, but could also hit her opponent in the face.

Ai Wan's eyebrows twitched, and she looked up at the high place with a puzzled look in her eyes. This face was so distinctive that she would probably never forget it in her life.

Not quite realizing what she was thinking, she suppressed the coldness on her face and smiled faintly in that direction.

"Junior sister smiled!"

"Junior sister is so beautiful!!"

My heart is pounding!!!

……

Merfolk are known for their keen hearing and sharp eyesight, so she could clearly see and hear scenes and sounds coming from afar.

Shen Yun's expression suddenly became indescribable. Could it be that the Nangong family started out as a bunch of flatterers?

"Don't you think they're being ridiculous?" Shen Yun looked at Shen Ran, who was standing to the side like a wooden stake.

But he noticed that Shen Ran was staring intently down below, a hint of interest piqued in his fox-like eyes.
