Chapter 558 Let's link up when we get back

To avoid letting anything slip, Yu Xia said, "Aren't you the strongest? Why would you need me to increase your power?"

When Metis heard her say this, he assumed that she was still angry about what happened a couple of days ago. He bent down and brought his face close to hers: "Didn't I say that we are family outside? You can't just take care of Little Manta and the others. If outsiders see us, they'll laugh at us."

Before Metis came to the outpost, he never thought that someone with a higher bloodline rank than him would come here, so he never thought about the high-level power buff.

He and Farrell are the highest rank, enhancing the power attributes of lower-ranking servants.

Now that someone of a higher rank has suddenly appeared, they can increase their power, so why not take advantage of it?

They weren't there for a duel; they were doing something important.

In these matters concerning foreign affairs, they can be said to be tacitly aware of each other's intentions.

However, the little princess has not yet established a power-blessing link with them, so they cannot obtain the power-enhancing buff from her.

Yu Xia knew nothing about these things, let alone how to connect with them.

Neither Serius nor Bello had told her.

Selius didn't tell her because they had already established a link. Yu Xia was the highest-ranking sea creature besides him, and after linking with him, his followers would naturally receive her power and blessings.

In the ocean, the ocean will automatically connect her with all sea creatures, but on land, this connection will be broken, and she will have to actively connect with lower-ranking sea creatures.

The forms of connection are divided into spiritual connection and physical connection.

The important thing is the will of the higher-ranking sea creatures.

In the past, it wasn't necessary to go through so much trouble. The constant fighting among the sea creatures had caused the higher-level bloodlines to spontaneously form a defense, severing their connection as soon as they went ashore to avoid being directly harvested by the lower-level sea creatures.

"We'll see." Yu Xia didn't know what the situation was, so she could only brush it off for now and ask Bello and the others when she got back.

“If we wait any longer, it will be too late. You are the strongest and the most vulnerable among us. If you don’t give us the reinforcements, not to mention the Federation, the Holy City will devour us.”

Metis spoke urgently, but he wasn't in a hurry at all. Increasing their power was simply a matter of the little princess applying a mental shield to them; it was a very simple matter.

Yu Xia pushed away the face that was pressed against hers, "We'll talk about it when we get back."

Upon hearing that there was hope, Metis hugged her tightly, showing her his affection. "It's settled then, we'll connect when we get back."

Yu Xia struggled against his tight embrace and said, "Don't hug me like that!"

Metis loosened his grip a little, sniffed at her neck, and said, "Why are you covering your pheromones? You don't need to hide them anymore."

"If you don't let go of me, you can go to the meeting covered in blood!"

Metis glanced at the water blade pointing at him, then looked down at the little princess and said, "How about I lick a bite of it?"

The other orca sentinels were already drooling with envy, all staring longingly at Yu Xia:

"Little princess, I can do it too! Two cuts and one bite!"

"Then I'll cut three times!"

"I'll stab you four times!"

"I can take eight cuts!"

After the orca sentinel shouted this, the other orca sentinels reached out to hit him, saying, "Why don't we just stab you to death!"

"Can we please stop the inflation?!"

"."

Chaos erupted inside the elevator, which swayed even more violently with the movements of the sentries, making Yu Xia fear that it might plummet.

Metis laughed heartily when he heard the little princess sigh.

It's still more fun to tease her.

The elevator doors finally opened, and Yu Xia, as if granted a pardon, quickly strode out. Metis followed behind her with his arms crossed and a smile on his face, two bloody marks on his neck and cheek, the wounds frozen and emitting wisps of cold air.

Yu Xia vowed never to squeeze into the elevator with Metis again; he was so annoying.

"Chief Metis, everyone is here, we've been waiting for you."

There were sea people waiting on this floor. When they saw them come out, they led the way and guided them to the conference room.

As soon as Yu Xia stepped out of the elevator, she composed herself and secretly observed her surroundings and the several unfamiliar sea creatures who were leading them to the conference room.

They wore dark gray combat uniforms, their skin was as pale as other sea people, their demeanor was cold, and their faces were expressionless.

But compared to the aloofness of her mermaid family and the arrogance of the orca gang, they appeared gloomy and exuded a murderous aura.

Yu Xia was observing them when two figures quickly approached from behind her.

"Your Highness."

Yu Xia turned around and saw that Bello and Silver Fang had followed them.

Upon seeing them, she breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Metis glanced at them, then put his arm around Yu Xia again and whispered in her ear, "Remember to sit next to me later."

Yu Xia: No, she wants to sit with Bello and Silver Tooth!
Upon arriving at the conference room entrance, several sea creature sentinels stood on either side, their gazes fixed on Yu Xia.

Those attending the meeting were all high-ranking officials and leaders from various parties; guards and other personnel were not allowed to enter and had to wait outside.

Yu Xia rubbed her slightly sweaty palms, adjusted her breathing, and put on a cold and arrogant expression before entering the conference room with Metis.

Inside the conference room, high-ranking officials from various factions waited for the last few attendees. Most of them knew each other. Before the meeting even started, some chatted, some waited quietly, and a few closed their eyes to rest.

As soon as Yu Xia and Metis entered, the conference room fell silent, and countless eyes turned to them.

"The princess has arrived."

After a few seconds of silence, a gentle voice spoke.

Yu Xia looked in the direction of the voice and saw it was Ryan.

She didn't speak, but quickly glanced around the conference room.

As expected, it was a group of familiar faces.

Acquaintances from the Snake Family, Dragon Family, and Lion Family were present, as well as several people from the Holy City, including Ivy and Harrison.

Yu Xia barely dared to look at the people of the Holy City.

They dared not linger on Harrison and his group.

Her gaze swept over the Holy City camp and immediately spotted Raphael sitting there with his eyes closed.

She quickly shifted her gaze to the sea creatures.

"Your Highness, please take a seat." Ryan thoughtfully pulled out the seat prepared for her.

The positions of each faction are all connected, including the sea tribe's, but the sea tribe only has two empty seats left at the central conference table.

Originally, Bello and Silver Fang had two positions, but now they are her subordinates and her right and left guards, so their positions are arranged behind her, just like the other secondary personnel of the faction, behind their respective faction positions.

Yu Xia looked at the seats; the two empty seats were separated.

The spot Ryan pulled her into was one of the two very central positions in the sea.

There were four seats for the Sea Clan's senior management, and the first two people who arrived had already occupied two of them, and they still insisted on sitting apart from each other.

The person sitting on the far right is Huanmeng, and the person second from the left is an unfamiliar sentry.
