After becoming top guides, they are obsessed with

Chapter 559 They're all your old flames

With the seating arranged like this, Metis can no longer sit next to Yu Xia.

What are you doing taking my spot?

Metis said to the sentry sitting in the middle, "Move aside, move aside, these are my and the little princess's seats."

The sentry's expression was cold and his tone slightly impatient, "Say one more word and I'll make you disappear."

A black vortex hovered beside his head.

The people in the conference room looked at the black vortex with varying expressions.

This is Farrell's ability; it is said to be able to devour all matter, which makes them somewhat wary.

The higher the rank of the sea creature, the more abnormal their abilities. Everyone could only be thankful that their abilities were greatly reduced once they came ashore, otherwise the person sitting in the main seat today would not be a member of the Lion family.

Involuntarily, their gazes turned back to the sea princess. In the days since she arrived at the outpost, many parties had gone to the sea clan base to inquire about and pay their respects, but no one had managed to see her.

However, they still managed to find out her name and her rank among the sea creatures.

This sea princess named Potti is the queen of the current sea lord.

Regardless of Potty's previous rank, once she becomes Queen, she will share the same rank as the Ocean Lord.

Even those unaware of these circumstances could glean clues from the arrangement of her meeting seats.

After the high-ranking officials in the conference room learned that she was the highest-ranking member of the sea tribe, they all started to make their own calculations.

They knew that there was a special power of blessing among the sea creatures, passed down like a pyramid. In this special system, the highest-ranking sea creatures were actually the weakest and easiest to deal with.

Everyone had their own agendas, but none dared to make any rash moves, for this princess was not someone to be trifled with.

The only opening for them is that the sea creatures are mostly at odds with each other and are fighting fiercely for the throne.

The group silently observed how the other sea creatures treated Princess Potti.

She and Metis hadn't even sat down yet. The princess had her hands folded in front of her abdomen, her eyebrows slightly lowered, her beautiful and delicate face expressionless, with a hint of arrogance in her eyes, making her seem like someone who wasn't easy to get along with.

Everyone had heard about her situation at the outpost spaceport that day.

The two young masters of the Snake family, Cather and Kleeman, sat to her left and right, their gazes fixed on her intently.

Metis was still waiting to switch places with Farrell, but Farrell showed no intention of giving up his spot to Metis. Moreover, the black vortex around his face grew larger, and coupled with his increasingly impatient expression, it seemed as if he might attack Metis at any moment.

Metis, being somewhat sensible outside, knew Farrell's stubborn temper and didn't want to fight him here, so he went to switch places with Huanmeng.

Huanmeng rested one hand on the table, her palm supporting her cheek, and sighed helplessly, "Farael won't let me sit next to him, Chief."

Before he could finish speaking, Farrell said coldly, "What are you still standing there for? Everyone is waiting for you."

These words were directed at Yu Xia.

Farrell tilted his head slightly, not looking directly at her, and spoke in a very unpleasant tone.

Yu Xia: "."

Suddenly I don't really want to sit in that seat anymore.

Seeing that everyone was looking at her, she didn't want to set the bar too high; she figured she'd just keep it at that level.

She was also afraid that Metis, the orca, was really fierce, and that if it fought with Farrell, things would get out of hand.

With a blank expression, Yu Xia sat down in this rather awkward spot, under the gaze of everyone.

As soon as she sat down, Farrell withdrew his powers.

Ryan looked at Metis and smiled, "Chief Metis, please have a seat."

Seeing that the little princess had already sat down, Metis ruffled her hair and then casually sat down in his seat.

Yu Xia remained expressionless, but inwardly screamed: Her hair! Her image!

Metis is so annoying!

After silently cursing in her heart, Yu Xia calmly smoothed her hair, which had been ruffled by Metis. She was thankful she hadn't sat next to him; otherwise, his meddlesome nature would have definitely made her uneasy. However...
Yu Xia glanced sideways at the gloomy sentry on her left, and unconsciously sat up straighter.

Sitting in this position isn't much better.

She guessed that this sentinel was probably Farrell, the shark clan leader that Silver Fang and the others had mentioned; he was indeed difficult to get along with.

He looked like he could attack her at any moment.

Yu Xia silently analyzed Farrell in her heart and decided that she should not provoke him, not even Metis.

A steaming cup of tea was pushed in front of Yu Xia.

Yu Xia turned her head, and Huanmeng, propping her head up with her hand, looked at her languidly, "It's His Highness's favorite flavor."

Yu Xia didn't drink it, but pushed the tea forward.

Farrell is difficult to deal with openly, while Illusion is difficult to deal with covertly.

"Your Highness, won't you do us the honor of having a sip? If you do, everyone will think we're at odds."

Upon hearing the voice in her mind, Yu Xia's eyes flickered, and she glanced at Huanmeng but ignored him.

It wasn't that she didn't want to pay attention, but rather that she couldn't use her guide's abilities. If she responded to Huanmeng, their consciousnesses could connect, even if only temporarily, and she was still worried about it.

These sea tribe leaders are all up to no good.

Besides, there were a bunch of familiar faces watching her in this setting.

Yu Xia felt the gazes coming from all directions, but she didn't dare to look back. She could only pretend to be aloof, lowering her eyebrows and playing with the pearl bracelet on her wrist.

"Look at the way those people are looking at you," Huanmeng's voice echoed in Yu Xia's mind again. "Your Highness, aren't you going to ignore them?"

Yu Xia fiddled with her pearl bracelet, pretending not to hear.

But what Huanmeng said next made her scalp tingle:

"After all, they are all your old flames."

Huanmeng paused as she watched the little princess touch the beads, and chuckled softly.

Yu Xia took a slow breath, suppressing the panic in her heart. As long as she didn't respond, Huanmeng could say whatever she wanted.

"These are the areas under our Lion Clan's jurisdiction. The pollution has spread a bit more, so we have to abandon these two areas. This one..."

Ryan projected the screen in front of him toward the second young master of the Snake family. "Second young master, this area seems to be under your jurisdiction? Please share the data."

Alex didn't move, his eyes fixed on someone in front of him.

Ryan: "Second Young Master?"

Alel, standing nearby, coughed lightly: "Alex."

Caesar, who was sitting behind Alex, also kicked his chair.

Alex withdrew his gaze and casually shared the data from his jurisdiction.

Ryan glanced between himself and the sea princess, then continued to chair the meeting.

“These two areas to the east are under the jurisdiction of the Dragon Clan.” Ryan looked up at the Dragon Clan’s senior members. “Patriarch Kanulius, please share your data as well, so we can integrate resources.”

Canulius didn't move, his eyes fixed on someone diagonally in front of him.

"The head of the Kanulius family?"

Fren kicked hard at the chair beneath Canulius.

Canulius slowly withdrew his gaze and quickly shared the data.

Is she really that pretty?

When Furen saw him looking at the sea princess again, he was so confused that he couldn't even operate the terminal anymore. He could only kick Camorsis, who was playing video games, and give him a warning look so that he would listen to the meeting properly.

Can't we find someone more reliable among these people?
At this moment, Furen missed their young master terribly.
