Chapter 459 Perhaps, we were all wrong!

"Your Highness Yunbo?" Heinrich's slightly aged voice pulled Yunbo back from his complex thoughts, which were surging with jealousy.

His purple eyes darkened, and he gave him a cold, dismissive look. "Heinrich, you certainly have a fine son."

Previously, she had only been secretly seducing him.

Now look what's happened! He actually dared to steal a kiss from his little bride in his bedroom!

If he hadn't deliberately set off that alarm blast to lure him out...

Who knows what outrageous things this audacious dolphin knight and his little bunny bride will do in his bedchamber!

Heinrich raised his eyes, his aged yet vigorous gaze sweeping towards the inner sanctum before he lowered his head in a daze:

"This old minister has a question: Your Highness clearly knew everything, so why didn't you stop it?"

"May this old minister humbly guess?" Heinrich hunched his back even lower. "If I have spoken out of turn, please forgive me, Your Highness."

Yun Bo tossed the sacrificial ceremony drawings onto the table, his pale fingers lightly tracing the pages. "Speak."

"It's because, Your Highness, you have changed."

“You have learned tolerance, understanding, and—” Heinrich’s aged fingers curled slightly, “love.”

Because of the Sea King of the Sea Clan's "demon" pact with that person.

For the past thousand years, the princes of the sea race have shouldered all sorts of responsibilities from birth.

Their long and tedious lives were lived for these duties.

Like Yunbo, he might provide his essence and blood daily to nourish the deity in the Holy Land.

And because he possessed the strongest energy, he guarded the entire deep-sea territory day and night.

It's also possible that, like C'Thun, due to the uniqueness of its intelligence and body, it became a temporary remnant soul vessel for that being in the Sanctuary.

Or, like Lingyuan.

He was not bound by any contract, but as the commander of the deep sea navy, he spent years leading his troops to intercept pollutants and mutated beasts that harassed the deep sea territory.

They never live for themselves for a single moment.

And the same was true of his two sons, Heinrich.

In order to protect and be loyal to the deep-sea territory and the deep-sea monarchy, they also have their own duties and missions.

They dedicated their entire lives to ensuring the continued existence of the sea people's civilization.

Their dictionary contains many words, but not "love".

But without love, what is the point of the sea tribes' civilization, no matter how long it continues?
A life without a partner is incomplete.

A sea-dwelling civilization without love is incomplete.

They are not worthy of emotions, especially the purest and truest love.

Because all the emotions gained are absorbed by the octopus and automatically sacrificed to the one in the sanctuary.

Unworthy of having emotions, yet forced to have them.

This sounds contradictory and goes against human nature.

But ironically, all of this has lasted for almost a thousand years.
“Lancang and Lanser have never seen their mother since birth.” Heinrich’s aged, wrinkled eyes became slightly moist. “They think it’s normal and reasonable.”

"And I have always believed that such sacrifices and offerings are necessary. For the continuation of the sea people's civilization, all of this is worthwhile."

"But now it seems that perhaps we were all wrong." The old man sighed. "Since the last Sea Emperor, we have all been instilled with the idea that sacrifice and dedication are what we should do."

"We also use it to bind and shackle our entire lives."

“Our sea people have passed down this tradition from generation to generation, binding and restricting the next generation for their entire lives.”

"Upon careful consideration, it becomes clear that even though the war between the sea creatures and the land creatures was fueled by someone behind the scenes."

Ultimately, however, what brought all this to happen was the greed and ambition of both the sea creatures and the land creatures.

The contract with Him actually stems more from the mistakes, incompetence, and greed of the previous Sea Emperor, but these should not be repaid by you and us.” For the past thousand years, sea creature females or land creature females who came to Ocean Star have served as sacrifices.

But aren't male sea creatures the same?

They were nothing more than pitiful tools who spent their entire lives supporting the one who ensured the continuation of the sea race's civilization.

The arrival of the female rabbits changed everything.

This change is gradual and subtle.

Or rather, it was a certain consciousness hidden deep within the sea creatures that began to awaken because of her appearance.

He didn't know about the others.

However, the changes in Prince Yunbo and his youngest son Lancer were particularly noticeable.

He had also heard a little about how His Highness C'Thun died today outside the Abyss Cage while trying to save a female rabbit.

“Therefore, as Your Highness said, rules and traditions are meant to be broken.” Heinrich wiped his slightly moist eyes with trembling hands.

"What the dolphin tribe can do is to swear allegiance to the deep-sea territory and the deep-sea monarchy."

"I also know that the Dolphin Council was originally established to balance and restrain the three princes."

The former and previous Sea Kings did not want the independent and impartial dolphin race to participate in the power struggle between the princes.

"But today's situation, and what has happened over this period of time, has made me reflect."

Perhaps, as you said, many things need to be changed and broken down.

“Your Highness Yunbo, I know what the wedding and sacrificial ceremony in two days means to you and to the Rabbit Clan lady.”

"But you can rest assured that this time, our dolphin clan will stand firmly on your side."

"Whether it's Lancang or Lanse, the two are not on good terms internally. But their loyalty to the Deep Sea Empire has never changed."

“As for Lancer—” Heinrich paused, “I also know that he has done some wrong things in secret recently.”

"But when it comes to matters of principle, I believe he has his own beliefs and judgment."

"Please forgive him this time, Your Highness, and set aside past grievances."

"As for his personal feelings—" Heinrich paused, "I am very grateful and thankful that the rabbit female changed you."

And it changed him as well.

"I respect his decision."

After he finished speaking, the air fell silent.

After a long while, the mermaid prince raised his eyes and glanced indifferently at the white-haired old man.
"Heinrich, your son may not be a good son."

But you are a good father.

Inner Temple.

Jiang Xinli was still trying to explore the immense power that had suddenly appeared within her body when the jellyfish official emerged from the side hall.

Upon seeing her, the jellyfish official's eyes lit up, and she bowed respectfully, "Miss Xinli, we've finally found you."

Jiang Xinli snapped out of her thoughts and smiled at her, "Is there something you need?"

"Hmm." The female official inadvertently caught a glimpse of her swollen, moist lips, and the next second, her pupils dilated in shock:
"Your mental strength has advanced to S-rank?!"

Yunbo didn't use a soundproof barrier when he was with her in the medicinal pool.

So, she, who was serving outside, knew some things and guessed some things.

Now that she saw it with her own eyes, she was both shocked and worried.
"According to the traditions of the deep sea territory, the sea male who marries a land tribe must ensure that the full moon sand is intact before the wedding ceremony is officially over."

otherwise--"
