Chapter 546 The Mermaid's Dream
"No need?"

Seeing that he rejected her mental comfort, Yu Xia thought for a moment and said, "Does that mean you don't need mental guidance? What are the methods of mental guidance used by the sea people?"

As soon as she finished asking the question, she felt Silver Tooth tighten his grip on her wrist.

In the stillness of the night, Yin Ya's slightly heavy breathing sounded very clear.

Yu Xia suddenly realized that the large fish he was holding was no longer cold; it had become warm, and its temperature was even rising.

"."

Yu Xia wasn't a novice anymore; the warm breath she exhaled from Yin Ya's face was almost condensing into mist.

Even Bello, who was usually the most gentle and considerate towards her, had never been this close to her.

"You," Yu Xia pinched the back of his neck, "you wouldn't be thinking of being with me, would you?"

Silver Fang took a deep breath on her neck, then buried his face in her shoulder and released her wrist. "You are a princess, it's your decision."

Yu Xia was bewildered. If it were the sentries who used to be by her side, it would have been a natural thing to do.

But silver teeth.
"Do you remember what you told me a few days ago?" Yu Xia asked.

Silver Fang: "Hmm."

"Hmm?" Yu Xia: "Aren't you going to say something else?"

Silver Tooth replied evasively, "Comforting your family is your business; I have no right to interfere."

Yu Xia: "But you're on top of me now."

Silver Tooth paused, then rolled over with her in his arms, so that Yu Xia was now lying on top of him.

"."

Yu Xia lifted her head from his chest to look at him. Now he was no longer backlit, allowing her to see his current state clearly.

Silver Teeth closed her eyes, her brows furrowed slightly, her cheeks flushed an unnatural red, and her lips were somewhat pale.

He looks more like he's sick.

Upon seeing this, Yu Xia's doubts about him immediately vanished; he was injured, and the injury seemed to be more serious than she had imagined.

Yin Ya wasn't wearing any clothes on his upper body. Yu Xia was slightly disturbed by some of his jewelry, and Yin Ya immediately wrapped his arms around her waist.

"Don't go." Silver Fang slightly opened his eyes, the frost in them long since melted away by warmth. "Princess, I am your strongest and most loyal subordinate."

Yu Xia: "Hmm, so what?"

Silver Fang: "Learning to appease your family will help you better lead your subordinates and the ocean."

After saying that, he added softly, "It'll be over in a little while."

Yu Xia smiled and grabbed a necklace from his chest. "I'm not leaving. Your necklace is hurting my skin."

Silver Tooth grabbed the necklace and ripped it off, then roughly tore off the other odds and ends around his neck and threw them off the bed.

"All right."

Seeing that he wouldn't let her into his mental imagery and didn't make any other moves, Yu Xia simply lay on top of him and wrapped him in her mental energy.

"Now can you tell me how you got injured?" Yu Xia asked.

“It’s Broken Tooth from the Orca Gang, Metis,” Silver Fang said after a moment of silence.

"Broken tooth?"

"Yes, a defeated opponent of the king."

Silver Tooth: "Metis once challenged for the throne, but failed and had one of his teeth broken by the king, so everyone called him Broken Tooth."

Yu Xia: "Why did you fight with him?"

Silver Fang's gaze lingered on her face for a moment, then he closed his eyes and said, "Conflict is inevitable among sea creatures."

"Because I am?"

Yu Xia interrupted him, "I have never appeared in front of your sea tribe before. Since you and Bello say that I have royal blood, they must want to see this princess who suddenly appeared."

Silver Fang put his arm around her shoulder and back, saying, "He's not someone you should worry about."

“But he hurt you.” Yu Xia gently touched the wound on his face with her fingers. “You are my kin, aren’t you?” Yin Ya grasped her fingers. “Princess, you can’t even beat me now.”

Yu Xia stared at him for a few seconds, then leaned against his chest. "Oh yeah, okay then."

Silver Fang: "That's not what I meant."

"Do you need some medicine for your injury?" Yu Xia interrupted him again. "Are you just leaving it like this?"

She wasn't bothered by Metis; she simply couldn't defeat him.

Since Metis was able to challenge Serius, it means he was also royalty, and therefore also unaffected by mental power.

“The royal family has a strong self-healing ability,” Silver Fang said.

Yu Xia touched his increasingly hot skin. "Is this a side effect of the self-healing process?"

Silver Fang stared at her for a few seconds, then swallowed hard. "...Hmm."

"The aura and bloodline power of royalty will accelerate the healing of our wounds."

Yu Xia: "You're also royalty, and you said before that your royal bloodline is stronger than mine."

Silver Fang: "Although you only have half sea race blood, your rank is higher than mine."

Yu Xia thought that this was probably because her father was a sea lord from ten thousand years ago, so her rank was a little higher than Silver Fang and the others.

Now she knew how to comfort Silver Fang, her kin; all she had to do was cuddle with him.

Yu Xia closed her eyes and went to sleep peacefully, which was much easier than giving the sentry mental support.

She had been training all day and was so exhausted that she fell asleep almost instantly.

After a long while, Silver Fang listened to the little princess's steady breathing and opened her slightly reddened eyes.

He lowered his eyes to gaze at her sleeping face, ran his fingers through her hair, and hummed a song softly.

The singing pierced through Yu Xia's dreams, making her sleep even more soundly.

Yu Xia dreamt that she was swimming happily on a calm sea when she suddenly heard a beautiful and melodious song coming from all around her. She swam to the surface and followed the song, and saw a figure on the horizon not far away.

It's a mermaid singing a courtship song.

The cold moonlight shone on the mermaid, making him appear dreamlike and ethereal. Yu Xia hesitated for a while, then couldn't resist swimming towards him.

This wasn't the first time she'd had a dream like this.

After arriving at the sea creature base, she had similar dreams every night—

The sea, mermaids, and songs.

And it all happens at night; the mermaid's song is mysterious and alluring, imbued with an ambiguous atmosphere by the gentle night and the calm sea.

But the singing today was different from what Yu Xia had heard the previous nights, and the mermaid was different too.

She hesitated for a moment before approaching him.

Since it was a dream, Yu Xia could never clearly see the mermaid's face in the dream.

This mermaid is indeed different today; his aura is icy, yet he is more impatient than the previous mermaids.

Without gentle touches or whispers, it seemed anxious, as if it had been lonely for years and finally attracted a mate with its courtship songs.

The mermaid's tail clung to her tightly, like a predator strangling its prey, and his violent movements stirred up waves on the calm sea.

Yu Xia was pulled underwater and then quickly pushed to the surface.

The moon's reflection on the water was shattered by them, and Yu Xia's voice was similarly broken, intermittently sealed by the mermaid.

This dream.
Yu Xia felt something was wrong. She could sense that this was a dream, but was it really a dream?
Is this too real?!

Before she could think any further, she was pulled into the sea again, tumbling and rolling with the mermaid's tightly entwined movements.

".Well!"

Silver Tooth stared blankly at the ceiling for a long time before looking at the little princess who was still sleeping in his arms.

He gazed at the little princess for a moment, then ran his hand over her waist, gently wiping away his marks.
