Chapter 337 Jiang Xinli, is she playing hard to get again?!

Hearing Jiang Wanwan's inner thoughts, the God-like System was shocked:
【Host, you can sleep with him if you want. There's a high chance that if you sleep with him, and then that shark prince, you'll be promoted to SS-rank! However, you can't sleep with them immediately.】

[SS-rank?! Isn't that killing two birds with one stone?!] Jiang Wanwan was overjoyed, but the system's last sentence poured cold water on her enthusiasm: [Why?!]

The system scratched its head: [I can't quite explain it, but anyway, I don't recommend you go to sleep immediately.]

System: [Because I sensed the aura of an ancient deity near that sacred tree.]

System: [This aura is very similar to that of the Dark Night Saint Servant.]

Jiang Wanwan frowned: "I remember that before I entered the spacetime rift, the Dark Night Saint told me that if I accidentally entered a planet full of oceans, then among all the females, only I could leave."

He said this was a rule He set. Therefore—

She suddenly realized, "The aura of that ancient deity you mentioned... could it be the same one the Dark Night Saintess spoke of?"

Jiang Wanwan: [But why is He here? Aren't they unable to enter the spacetime rift?!]

A glimmer of confidence rose in Jiang Wanwan's heart: [You think He wouldn't be here specifically waiting for me, this dark female?]

Jiang Wanwan: [However, since the Dark Night Saint Servant is so ugly, perhaps He isn't any better—]

The system shuddered and quickly interrupted: [Host, you'd better not speak ill of others, especially since He is an ancient deity.]

Jiang Wanwan subconsciously glanced at the ever-present feeling of being watched from above.

She glanced at Jiang Xinli behind her, only to see that Jiang Xinli looked weak and had her head down, seemingly uninterested in the handsome and noble mermaid prince on the throne.

Jiang Wanwan scoffed inwardly: Ha, another case of playing hard to get, what a damn good actor!

System: [Host, watch your expression. That mermaid prince is looking at you.]

System: [Am I right? He likes confident, proactive, and poised beautiful women like you!]

Jiang Wanwan snapped out of her thoughts and forced a charming smile. "Your Highness Yunbo, I'm sorry, I—"

"It's alright," the other person said in a deep voice, seemingly unconcerned about her sudden lapse in concentration.

The old man beside him bowed slightly, straightened up, and said:

"Distinguished female members of the land race, after comprehensive evaluation, we have selected Miss Wanwan as the chief marriage partner of our deep-sea territory."

Jiang Wanwan's eyes lit up immediately upon hearing this.

She quickly lifted her skirt and bowed deeply to the man on the throne, tears of gratitude streaming down her face:
"Thank you, Your Highness Yunbo! It is my greatest honor to have the opportunity to serve by your side!"

"Oh?" The man on the throne raised an eyebrow slightly, giving her a cold glance. "Is that so?"

"Yes, Your Highness." Jiang Wanwan was extremely excited and blurted out her confession without thinking, "As long as I can stay by your side, I will do anything, even die for you!"

The system was speechless: [Host, be mindful of your behavior! You are the most distinguished female in the interstellar realm!]

System: [Also, this place is a bit eerie, so try not to make any unfounded vows.]

Jiang Wanwan scoffed: "Didn't you say that this Ocean Star is a huge man-made illusion?"
Everything we encountered in the illusion was just a casual act with these NPCs.
Besides, a casually uttered oath is like farting! And this is the deep sea; making a false oath won't get you struck by lightning!

Jiang Wanwan: [Besides, I'm a future SSSS-rank Dark Female, I'm not that easy to kill! Just wait and see as I smoothly take them down and advance to SS-rank!]

system:【.】

After communicating with the system, Jiang Wanwan sneered inwardly: "With me on the job, there's no man I can't win over!"
With a charming smile on her face, she thought she was perfectly disguised, completely unaware that the man on the throne was giving her a meaningful look.

"Miss Wanwan, shall I arrange for someone to escort you to the side hall to rest?" the old man suddenly said.

Jiang Wanwan was taken aback. "A side hall."

"Yes, you will be staying temporarily in a side hall of the underwater palace until the wedding. Also—" The old man raised his eyes and glanced at everyone in the main hall:
"Before the wedding officially begins, everyone present must enter the palace daily for a blessing ceremony at the sacred tree." The crowd exchanged glances for a second.

Jiang Xinli seemed to be lost in thought.

She looked up at Jiang Wanwan's wrist.

The octopus on the other person's fair wrist gleamed with an eerie light.

She then subconsciously looked at Yun Bo on the throne and saw a slender octopus on his wrist.

But the octopus was hidden behind its dark purple, jade-like, clear and translucent wrist fins.

Jiang Xinli frowned slightly:
Therefore, even in the deep sea, the most noble mermaid princess was bound to this octopus.
Where does the octopus go after absorbing energy?
Holy tree?

As soon as Jiang Xinli looked away, she noticed a cold gaze looking down at her.

She looked up and her eyes met a pair of dark, deep purple pupils.

Jiang Xinli hasn't forgotten her timid, weak, sickly beauty persona.

Her body trembled slightly, her eyes shrank back, and she gave a slight bow.

A hint of suspicion flashed in the old man's eyes, and he whispered, "Your Highness, this female rabbit seems a bit frail."

Yun Bo smiled faintly, "Just a pet."

It's more fun to bully someone who's weak and delicate.

But I just found out that her vulnerability was all an act—

It seems even more interesting now.
The old man understood immediately, "Esteemed female members of the Lu Clan, you may now withdraw."

After saying this, the group, guided by several female officials, filed out of the hall.

Jiang Xinli felt a sense of relief. After finishing her greeting, she turned and left as if nothing had happened, when she suddenly heard a deep, cold voice behind her:
"Leave the rabbit."

Jiang Xinli was taken aback and silently glanced at everyone.

There were dozens of terrestrial females present, each of whom was a different species.

Because each of them represents their respective race.

“Miss Xinli—” the old man’s kind voice came from behind, “Your Highness, please wait a moment.”

Jiang Wanwan abruptly stopped, turned around, and said in a coquettish tone:

"Your Highness Yunbo, may I serve you a little longer?"

Yunbo didn't speak, but simply gestured his finger outwards slightly.

"Miss Wanwan, please." The white-haired old man understood immediately, quickly came down the steps, and smiled at Jiang Wanwan.

"This—" Jiang Wanwan wanted to try and get something more, but a gaze filled with oppressive killing intent fell from the throne onto her head.

Feeling uneasy, Jiang Wanwan quickly bowed and followed the old man out.

The vast palace was now empty.

The moment the palace doors slammed shut with a loud bang, the light inside the room suddenly dimmed.

Jiang Xinli paused slightly, then, after stopping, lifted her skirt and bowed to the incomparably handsome man on the throne.

"Your Highness Yunbo."
