Douluo Jueshi: Who made him a soul mentor!

Chapter 169 The Warm Hospitality of the Merfolk
When Liya, who had a golden crown and a fish tail, saw her mother return, she said softly, "Mother, you're back."

After saying that, he swam to the Sea Princess's side and snuggled up to her affectionately.

With a silver crown and a silver fishtail, the aloof and stunningly beautiful Regent saw two strangers arrive among the fish-men and immediately asked her mother, "Mother, who are they?"

The sea princess waved, signaling Regent to come over as well.

The sea princess loved her two daughters dearly. Her biggest worry was her two daughters.

However, she will soon merge with Wang Chen, and after Wang Chen becomes a god in the future, they will ascend to the God Realm together.

She couldn't bear to see herself ascend to the divine realm while her two daughters suffered in the mortal world, ultimately dying under the heavenly tribulation.

However, when the Sea Princess thought about how the Sea God could ascend to the divine realm with his wife and immediate family, she immediately came up with a good idea.

That means making her two daughters Wang Chen's women, so they can ascend to the God Realm together, right?
Then the three of them, mother and daughters, can enjoy family bliss together in the divine realm.

Having devised a plan for mother and daughters to reunite and ascend to the divine realm together, the Sea Princess began to implement her plan. Her first step was to introduce Wang Chen to her two daughters.

This is why she persuaded Wang Chen to visit the mermaid clan.

The sea princess, holding her two daughters' hands, introduced them to Wang Chen, "Lord Wang Chen, these are my two daughters. The one with the golden fishtail is named Liya, and the one with the silver fishtail is named Lijing."

The Sea Princess said to Regent and Liya, "Quickly pay your respects to Lord Wang Chen, for Lord Wang Chen is the future Sea God!"

Lijing, who was always proud of her noble bloodline, looked down on outsiders, and had a cold personality, stared at Wang Chen with wide eyes. The person in front of her was actually the future Sea God!
Even the gentle and timid Liya covered her open pink lips with her delicate hand in surprise, clearly shocked.

Lijing and Liya were initially shocked, but then looked at Wang Chen with fervent admiration.

The mermaids are devout followers of the sea god, and everyone worships and reveres him. After learning that Wang Chen is the future sea god, he suddenly gained a sacred aura in the eyes of Lijing and Liya, causing them to bow in respect.

"Lord Wang Chen!"

"Lord Wang Chen!"

Not only Regent and Liya, but the other mermaids around them also looked at Wang Chen with fervor after hearing that he was the future sea god, and then knelt down on the ground, bowing and shouting.

As Wang Chen watched the many mermaids bow to him, he suddenly felt as if he had usurped Tang San's place, and that feeling was, to be honest, quite satisfying.

Wang Chen smiled slightly and said, "Get up, all of you. I am not a god yet, there is no need for such a grand gesture."

Looking at the many ordinary mermaids and the three sea princesses, Wang Chen noticed that the three sea princesses wore a crown, unlike the other ordinary mermaids.

This signifies that the three sea princesses possess even more noble bloodlines. In particular, the sea princess and her youngest daughter, Lia, wear golden crowns and fish tails.

This is the symbol of the golden bloodline, while the silver crown's Regent bloodline is somewhat inferior, its talent and potential not as good as its younger sister Rea, who possesses the golden bloodline.

Powerful skills like the Heart of the Ocean can only be used by those with the golden bloodline among the mermaid race.

Soon, Wang Chen arrived at the largest palace, surrounded by the Sea Princess, her two daughters, and many mermaids.

As for the Snow Empress, she was completely ignored by the merfolk.

Xue Di looked at the many beautiful mermaids surrounding Wang Chen, her face expressionless and cold as she followed. It was clear that she was in a very bad mood...

Princess Hai led Emperor Wang Chenxue into the palace.

This palace, made of coral, is quite large, standing over thirty meters tall and several hundred meters wide. Furthermore, a strong aura of soul power emanates from within, indicating that this palace is not merely a simple structure but possesses considerable power.

The sea princess opened the coral door and led Wang Chen into the innermost part of the palace, where a luxurious and spacious hall came into Wang Chen's view.

Inside the hall, various decorations were displayed, and a gemstone the size of a human head emitted a gentle light that illuminated the entire hall.

The crystal-clear seashells and the beautiful, colorful corals—these exquisite marine-themed decorations were a refreshing sight for Wang Chen.

Princess Hai seated Wang Chen in the main seat of the hall, while she and her two daughters sat beside him. As for the Snow Empress, she sat two seats away from Wang Chen.

Princess Hai smiled and said to Wang Chen, "Lord Wang Chen, it is an honor for our mermaid clan to have you as a guest. We will treat you with the utmost hospitality."

After she finished speaking, the Sea Princess clapped her hands, and a long table appeared in front of Wang Chen.

The Sea Princess announced loudly, "Guards, begin the banquet!"

At the sea princess's command, dozens of graceful mermaid maids filed in, carrying crystal trays.

The tray was laden with various marine delicacies that Wang Chen had never seen before: moon clams sashimi emitting a pale blue glow, dishes made with ancient sea lingzhi mushrooms, crystal-clear deep-sea cod caviar, and mellow wines.
"Lord Wang Chen, this is a special mermaid wine made by our mermaid clan." The sea princess personally held up a seashell wine cup inlaid with sapphires, filled with a liquid that looked like liquid sapphires.

"This is brewed with the essence of the thousand-year-old azure spirit herb and rare materials such as the Mingyang flower that grows in the underwater volcano. It is extremely beneficial to both mental and physical strength, and it also nourishes yin and strengthens yang. Please try it."

Wang Chen took the wine glass and drank it down in one gulp. The mellow wine entered his mouth and then transformed into two streams of energy.

One surge of energy rushed straight into his spiritual sea, invigorating his mental strength. Another surge of heat entered Wang Chen's body, making him slightly tipsy, and the taste was exquisite—a mellow, sweet aroma with a lingering aftertaste.

"Excellent wine," Wang Chen exclaimed.

Upon hearing this, the sea princess smiled with delight, and then, through the unique telepathic connection of the mermaid royal family, she instructed her two daughters to entertain Wang Chen.

“Lord Wang Chen, let me pour you some wine.” Liya stood up and poured another glass of wine for Wang Chen beside him. Her golden fishtail shimmered with a captivating luster under the soft glow of the jewels, and her slender neck was slightly lowered, revealing its graceful curves.

"Lord Wang Chen, please have a taste." Li Jing also rose from her seat, used a silver fork to pick up a piece of crystal-clear fish and brought it to Wang Chen's mouth.

Her usually cool and aloof face now showed a hint of shyness, and her long blue hair cascaded down like a waterfall.

Xue Di sat to the side, watching the three women, including the Sea Princess, fawn over Wang Chen. The wine glass in her hand had unknowingly frozen with a thin layer of ice.

She gave the sea princess a cold look, but the latter pretended not to see it and instead enthusiastically introduced the special delicacies of the mermaid tribe to Wang Chen.

Halfway through the banquet, a soft blue light suddenly illuminated the center of the hall. Many beautiful mermaid maidens swam into the hall, holding instruments made of seashells and gemstones, and began to play the unique music of the mermaid race.

Accompanied by a melodious tune, twenty-four mermaid dancers swayed their alluring fish tails and performed the mermaid dance.

The mermaids performing gazed at Wang Chen with adoration, frequently casting him seductive glances, their dance becoming increasingly alluring. Their slender waists were as supple as seaweed, and the scales on their tails shimmered with a mesmerizing light…

"Lord Wang Chen, please enjoy the unique ocean dance music of our mermaid race. This is only performed when welcoming the most distinguished guests," the sea princess explained to Wang Chen with a smile.

While being served by the Sea Princess and her two daughters, Wang Chen enjoyed drinking and eating, and also appreciated the dance and music of the mermaid clan. He was in a very pleasant mood.

Wang Chen had a vague feeling that the Sea Princess wanted something from him, but as long as it wasn't something that would harm his interests or was particularly troublesome, he wouldn't mind helping her out, given how sensible she was.
