Chapter 320 The Mermaid Prince's Bride

"Wedding dress?" Jiang Xinli paused slightly as she stroked the fabric of the dress. "Put it on first, then we'll check on Xuexi's condition later."

Sheng Tianze strode over, grabbed her fingers, and said in a deep voice, "Lili, you're not allowed to wear it."

His little rose, if she wants to wear a wedding dress, can only wear his.

Even temporary role-playing is not acceptable.

Xue Qianxun had already opened her personal terminal. "My cousin said that hers is also a royal wedding dress, except that hers is yellow."

The deep-sea territory is strictly hierarchical.

The color of clothing represents an individual's social status.

Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, cinnabar, purple.

Red is the lowest color, purple is the highest.

Jiang Xinli's attire was the most noble purple, but coincidentally, the royal guard uniforms of her beast husbands were the same color as those of Xue Xi's beast husbands—red.

Or rather, their clothing was the same color as all the male orcs who fell into the Ocean Star.
That means that in the deep sea territory, regardless of their female master's mental strength level, they belong to the lowest level.

Jiang Xinli thought for a moment, "I'll ask Lancer."

Shortly after, the other party replied.

Jiang Xinli looked up. "He said no, it's just the everyday clothes of the royal women. These clothes are based on the styles of the Lu clan's royal palace a thousand years ago. It's possible that the styles just happen to overlap with the wedding dresses."

Sheng Tianze's brow relaxed slightly.

“However, these patterns—” Xue Qianxun’s golden-blue heterochromatic eyes narrowed slightly, “are somewhat like some kind of ancient runes.”

"Is this dress haunted by evil spirits?" Hua Xi examined the dress with concern. "Little Pear, maybe we shouldn't wear it."

"It's alright, put it on," Jiang Xinli said calmly. "If we don't change, we won't be able to enter the Deep Sea Territory. If we can't enter the Deep Sea Territory, we won't be able to find the Star Gate."

If they can't find the stargate, they'll be trapped here forever.

“Actually, I’m worried that once the female master enters the deep-sea territory, she will be directly taken away—” Ye Kuo expressed his concern.

Jiang Xinli laughed, "Little Leopard, are you talking about marriage?"

"Yes." Ye Kuo nodded.

"Don't worry, my intuition tells me it won't happen." Jiang Xinli walked up to him and hugged him. "Their talent is that they can see human emotional fluctuations."

During this period, the energy of the corpses of the dead land-dwelling orcs was being absorbed by some mysterious force.

"If I'm not mistaken, this energy is emotional energy."

"Perhaps the entire deep-sea territory, whether it's warships, their energy swords, or their energy mounts, all need this kind of emotional energy to sustain themselves."

Jiang Xinli analyzed the situation with sparkling eyes.

Back in ancient Earth, she was just a minor celebrity, barely making it into the mainstream.

However, he has read many scripts and acted in quite a few plays.

Despite playing minor, in nine out of ten roles, he was just a passerby who appeared on screen one second and disappeared the next.

But that didn't stop her from reading the entire script thoroughly every time.

The aftereffect of seeing too much of this is that when encountering similar situations, one's thinking tends to wander wildly.

Sheng Tianze pulled her away from Ye Kuo's embrace, gently stroked her nose with his fingers, and smiled indulgently.

"I really don't know how much is inside my little Lili's head."

Hua Xi rubbed his head, his face contorted in pain.
“Indeed, Little Pear, your ideas are too far-fetched. Even if I plucked all the feathers off my body, I would never have thought of them.”

"Emotional energy?" Yuehua's silver eyes flickered slightly. "Human emotions are nothing more than kinship, friendship, and love."

He paused, then continued, "And this time, it's another marriage alliance between you and the royal family. So, most likely it's—love?"

Before he could finish speaking, Xuan Ying scoffed coldly, "Want love? Let them die!"

Jiang Xinli glanced at Xuan Ying and smiled, "Alright, Xiao Ying, it's just acting, don't worry too much."

"That's all?" Sheng Tianze looked down at the smiling girl in his arms, his eyes suddenly becoming dark and unfathomable.

Sheng Tianze: [Didn't Lili also put on an act with us at the beginning?]
Jiang Xinli: “.”

Jiang Xinli: [You have the nerve to say that? Who was secretly eavesdropping on my thoughts back then? Humph!]
She pouted and snorted, muttering under her breath, "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!" Sheng Tianze: "."

He felt guilty and hugged her tighter. "Okay, Lili, don't be angry anymore."
Hua Xi looked at the light purple dress adorned with dazzling jewels and suggested, "Little Pear, how about we don't wear this dress for now?"

"Okay, everything I just said was just my wild guesses." Jiang Xinli walked over. "You guys help me change."

The beastmen hesitated for a moment and did not move.

Jiang Xinli recalled the voyeuristic feeling that occasionally arose with the polluted deep-sea area.
"If, as Aze said, those mysterious forces cannot exist independently and need to rely on the direct bloodline of the royal family that possesses the power of the deep sea, then..."

Therefore, leaving the stargate is not as simple as just finding the stargate.

It's very likely that we'll need to find Him, then defeat Him, or obtain His permission.

Humans cannot defeat the gods.

But perhaps we can try to get His permission.

Of course, she hoped that what she said and thought was just wishful thinking on her part.

"Let's change into them first." Sheng Tianze lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment. "Royal weddings always involve a series of complicated procedures."

What we need is to find the stargate and a way to leave Ocean Star as soon as possible, before the wedding.

“Yes, I agree.” Xue Qianxun nodded.

The five beastmen hurriedly helped Jiang Xinli put on her clothes, and carefully put on her necklace and earrings.

She thought about the necklace Hua Xi had given her, then took it off and wrapped it around her wrist.

When Lancer arrived, Jiang Xinli was already dressed in new clothes.

The well-tailored light purple satin dress accentuated the girl's slender waist.

The low-cut lace trim accentuates the snow-white skin while subtly revealing the perfect, full bust line.

Lancer's gaze lingered for a moment on the pearl necklace adorning her fair collarbone.

A hint of amazement and undercurrent flashed in the clear, deep glacial blue of his eyes.

But his expression remained unchanged; he simply extended his hand gracefully and said, "Miss Xinli, please."

The warships slowed down.

A glimmer of light gradually appeared in the dark sea.

Jiang Xinli and six red-clad "guards" followed Lancer into the white teleportation room.

"Ding--"

The moment the door opened from both sides, Jiang Xinli held her breath.

Before you is a room with a luxurious carpet and floor-to-ceiling windows offering a 360-degree panoramic view.

Behind them was a dark and eerie thick fog.

Not far directly ahead, in an area shrouded by a shimmering, semi-circular barrier, stands a magnificent and imposing palace complex.

Jiang Xinli was shocked. "This is the Deep Sea Territory?"

“Yes, Miss Xinli. The area covered by the dome in front is the Deep Sea Territory, as for that palace—”

He looked up at the nearest magnificent tower, and a high-frequency sound wave, indistinguishable to ordinary people, emanated from it:

"It is the underwater palace of our mermaid prince, Yunbo."

On the tower, the old man's eyes lit up when he received the high-frequency sound waves.

He looked at the silver-white warship slowly approaching in the distance, a long-lost joy appearing on his face, "Lancer is back."

"The mermaid prince's bride has arrived."
