Chapter 467 The Final Embrace and Farewell!
The sea crystal flowers, swaying with dazzling golden and blue light, gracefully fell into the seabed.

The handsome man's long, dark purple hair fell like a soft curtain, creating a private space that belonged only to the two of them.

He lowered his head and kissed her.

His slender, pale fingertips, trailing a thin stream of fluid, lingered on her back.

Wherever it passed, it seemed to ignite tiny sparks.

"Yunbo," the girl murmured indistinctly, instinctively reaching out to wrap her arms tightly around his neck.

"Don't be afraid." The man's warm breath brushed against her ear, his voice growing lower and more husky.
"This time I'll be gentler."

The seawater rippled gently.

In the shimmering water, she saw the gleaming, dark purple scales at the corners of his eyes.

Those noble and beautiful fish scales are like the most alluring and dazzling stars in the dark night.

When his fishtail wrapped around her waist again, Jiang Xinli slightly raised her eyes, her clear doe eyes meeting the depths of his dark, surging purple eyes.

At this moment, everything around returned to calm.

All that remained were their intertwined breaths and heartbeats.

Two days flew by.

The light of the dodder flower within Jiang Xinli's body never went out.

There is less than half a day left before the sea tribe's wedding and sacrificial ceremony.

A blood-red full moon quietly rose from the sea.

The girl nestled in the man's broad, warm embrace, her fair and delicate face flushed with a blush that lingered after a passionate encounter.

She wrapped her arms around his waist and gently nuzzled against his chest. "Yunbo, I've heard that mermaids sing beautifully. Can you sing?"

“Singing is a talent for mermaids, but I’ve never sung.” The man smiled, his purple eyes lowered, gazing at her with tender affection.
"However, if my little bride wants to hear it, then I'll sing it for you, okay?"

If he could, he would sing to her for the rest of his life.

If he could, he would like to hold her in his arms like this for the rest of his life.

"Mmm." The girl nodded obediently, her fluffy bunny ears gently brushing against his Adam's apple as she moved.

The man's Adam's apple bobbed, and he pulled her closer.

A gentle, flowing melody filled my ears.

"It sounds so nice," Jiang Xinli said, closing her eyes in comfort.

When the song ended, the man looked at the girl who was fast asleep in his arms, smiled indulgently, and leaned down to gently kiss her forehead.

The girl suddenly woke up.

She looked up at him with her bright, doe-like eyes and asked, "Yunbo, is it true that the tears shed by mermaids turn into pearls?"

“Hmm.” Yun Bo nodded. “However, the princes of the sea tribe are never allowed to shed tears.”

"So, I have never cried."

He inexplicably recalled the lewd words that had crossed his mind when she first helped him remove his robe by the medicinal pool, and felt a tightness in his throat.

“My little bunny bride,” he picked her up and sat her across his lap, “did you like the song I sang?”

The girl's eyebrows were curved, and her eyes were bright and sparkling.
"Mmm, it's incredibly beautiful! It's the best singing I've ever heard."

"This is the second sweet nothing I've heard my little bride say to me." The man's lips curled into a smile. "How about I reward myself?"

"Mmm." The girl tilted her head back and, as if possessed, kissed his Adam's apple.

The man let out a low, muffled groan.

"My little bunny bride," he breathed heavily, leaning close to her ear and whispering, "I ask you this in a low voice."
"Would you like to try some pearls?"

On the other side, somewhere in the polluted deep-sea area.

Inside a small, temporary barrier shrouded in a thick black mist.

Jiang Wanwan glanced at the handsome, imposing man lying unconscious on the bed, her eyes turning cold, and sat down on the edge of the bed.

The moment her fingers touched the man's shirt button, a mechanical voice exploded in her mind. System: [Host, you're not really going to force yourself on him, are you?!]

Jiang Wanwan snorted coldly, "So what? Today is the day the Dark Tide and the Blood Moon converge. My time is running out!"

The system was speechless. [Host, this great white shark's affection for you has remained unchanged. Sleeping with him didn't provide any benefits!]

Jiang Wanwan rolled her eyes at the empty space, [It's all your fault for being incompetent! That lousy pill actually failed to work on him!]

As expected, you get what you pay for!

She even suspected that the pill the system gave her as compensation for free was fake!
This is absolutely a poorly made, substandard product!

The system shrugs: [Host, it's not that my medicine is faulty, it's just that Ling Yuan's resistance is too strong.]

The system continued its rambling, "Think about it, he's the commander of the shark army of the sea creatures, born cold-blooded and ruthless."

But he was royalty, so how could he be so easily seduced by a single pill?

Jiang Wanwan gave a mocking sneer. "So, it's better to rely on yourself than to ask for help!"

She added insult to injury: "No, you're not human."

System: 【%¥@@¥……&%¥……】

The system looked aggrieved: [Host, where is the basic trust between people—ah, I mean, between people and the system?]
I've been with you for so many years; even if I haven't done anything particularly meritorious, I've certainly put in a lot of hard work!

The system cried out: "Even without any hard work, I've always provided you with plenty of emotional value, okay?"

The system's words only fueled Jiang Wanwan's anger.

This incompetent, broken system! If she weren't so thin, she would have developed high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and high blood sugar from all of that!

Jiang Wanwan: [Can you please shut up!]

The system beeped once and then fell silent.

Jiang Wanwan took a deep breath and continued to unbutton Ling Yuan's clothes.

Halfway through solving the puzzle, she frowned and asked the system, "System, if I sleep with him now, will it really not have any buff effect?"

The system said nothing.

Jiang Wanwan felt a surge of anger instantly rise from the soles of her feet to the top of her head. [Useless system, make a sound!]

System: [Squeak—]

Jiang Wanwan: 【%%¥@¥%@¥¥¥*&*&%8¥】

Jiang Wanwan was furious: [You believe it or not, I'll kill myself!]

System, [Host, you're the one who told me to shut up.]

Jiang Wanwan roared, "Now I'll let you speak! Say it! Isn't it true that even sleeping with him didn't give you any buffs?!"

System: [Yes, host. To activate a male god and receive points and gift packs, you need a favorability rating of 50% or higher on the Male God Illustrated System.]

Jiang Wanwan was utterly speechless: [Have you lost your mind?! I'm talking about the buff effect! The buff that helps me reach SS rank! Not your crappy points reward!!!]

System: [Uh (⊙o⊙)…Sorry, I'm dizzy from your scolding. It does work, but the effect isn't that obvious.]

The system rubs salt into the wound: [However, this Prince Lingyuan is truly outrageous. You clearly saved him, yet he shows you absolutely no goodwill whatsoever! A heartless shark indeed!]

Jiang Wanwan's head went blank for a second: [You might as well just shut up!]

System: [Phew~]

Jiang Wanwan took a deep breath and continued to unbutton Ling Yuan's military uniform.

Lifting the stiff, black-and-white military uniform, the man's full, muscular chest, marked with some scars, came into view.

Jiang Wanwan subconsciously swallowed, her fingers sliding down to his belt, about to make a move.

The system suddenly screamed like a chicken in Jiang Wanwan's mind: "Aaaaaah! Host, we have just detected..."

Jiang Xinli's mental strength has reached S-level!!!
