The evil female is weak and the males of the whole continent are out of control and fall.

Chapter 433 Farewell

His bloodshot eyes were fixed on the illusory, gently smiling "Bai Wanwan" in front of him, and his immense disappointment and anger at being deceived erupted like a volcano!
He suddenly raised his hand, not to embrace, but to gather all the dark power in his body and, with a violent ferocity that could destroy everything, fiercely stabbed at the false phantom!

Hua Han let out a muffled groan, his face suddenly turning deathly pale!

A trickle of blood escaped from the corner of his mouth, and his body swayed, almost unable to stand.

Casting high-level illusions is extremely mentally taxing, and Roger's self-destructive attack in the illusion, which gathered all his resentment and dark power, severely backfired on the caster, Hua Han, through the mental link!
His mental strength felt as if it had been struck by a heavy hammer, causing excruciating pain.

"Pfft!" Hua Han could no longer hold on and spat out a mouthful of blood. The light of the illusion instantly dimmed and disappeared.

Almost at the same instant the illusion vanished, the brief confusion in Roger's eyes was replaced by overwhelming rage and brutality!
He saw the reality clearly: a strange male was coughing up blood and staggering, while the merman was helping Bai Wanwan try to back away!

"Is it your fault?"

He looked at the unfamiliar male with a gloomy gaze, his resentment almost ready to be unleashed.

"Run away quickly!" Jiao Yin, grateful that the other party had saved her and Bai Wanwan, immediately reminded them.

Hua Han hadn't expected the opponent to be so strong. He possessed orange-tier talent and was also skilled in illusion magic, which was adept at bewitching people.

When I'm out and about, I've almost never encountered any adversaries.

The dark energy emanating from the male opposite him was too sinister, making him vaguely feel that something was wrong.

"None of you can escape. Except for Bai Wanwan, you will all die!"

He will not leave any of the males around Bai Wanwan!

The dark energy within him suddenly erupted!

A black energy vortex, thicker and more violent than before, spread wildly from him, carrying an aura of destruction!

Jiaoyin's expression turned extremely solemn. He instantly realized that resisting would surely lead to certain death!
"We can't defeat him. Can you cast the illusion spell one more time? That way we can escape safely."

Hua Han knew he had to take a gamble. Since he had chosen to appear before the female to save her, he couldn't back down halfway.

"Okay, I'll try."

The pinkish-purple vortex reappeared in his eyes, and Roger's mind went blank for a moment.

Bai Wanwan reappeared before him, gently cupping his face and kissing him...

Roger suddenly stopped his attack, and the two males did not take the opportunity to attack, because they knew that if they did not escape this time, they might never escape again.

He grabbed Hua Han, who was weakened by the backlash of the illusion, and put his other arm around Bai Wanwan's waist. "Let's go!"

The powerful tail fin and water control power erupt simultaneously!

Roger, who was captivated by the illusion, knew it was fake, but this time he was still lost in her gentle kiss and did not push her away.

I don't know how much time passed before the white, slender figure in front of me finally disappeared like smoke.

Roger regained full consciousness, looked at the empty beach, and unleashed a surge of violent dark energy from his hand, causing the reef to explode and sending debris flying everywhere!

His obsession and possessiveness grew stronger.

The icy seawater temporarily kept the frenzy on the shore at bay.

Jiaoyin quickly led the two down into the water and swam towards the palace.

Although Hua Han was seriously injured, she could still barely hold on, though her face remained pale. Bai Wanwan looked at Jiao Yin's wounds with concern, "Are your injuries serious?"

Jiaoyin gave her a slight smile, "It's alright, I'm an orange-tier male, and my recovery ability is very strong."

As soon as Jiaoyin finished speaking, Huahan next to her snorted.

Bai Wanwan turned to look at him, "How are you?"

Hua Han was finally satisfied, but then revealed a weak expression. "My injuries are very serious, and I'm in a lot of pain."

Bai Wanwan had just witnessed him vomiting blood, so she had no doubts. She took his arm and said, "I'll treat you later. You'll recover quickly, don't worry. And... thank you!"

Although Hua Han's head was throbbing, hearing the female's soft voice say "thank you" felt like a warm spring had been poured into his heart, and the pain instantly subsided.

Gradually, they drew closer and closer to the palace.
However, before even getting close to that dreamlike crystal palace, a strong sense of foreboding enveloped Jiaoyin.

So quiet!

The merman guards who usually patrolled around the palace were nowhere to be seen.

A faint...stench of blood permeated the seawater?

Just as they were about to enter the coral forest surrounding the palace, a weak figure shot out from behind a huge cluster of purple coral like an arrow and blocked Jiao Yin's way!
"Your Majesty! Don't go back! Let's go!"

It was a young male merman, his body covered with deep, bone-revealing lacerations, from which blue blood seeped out, staining the surrounding seawater red.

His fish tail was even broken off, clearly indicating that he had been through a fierce battle.

His eyes were filled with terror and despair as he gripped Jiaoyin's arm tightly.

"Mo Lin? What happened?!" Jiao Yin's heart sank to the bottom.

"It's Jiaoming! Lord Jiaoming... he colluded with the saltwater crocodile clan!"

Mo Lin's voice trembled with pain and fear, "They launched a surprise attack from within! The palace... the guards and your loyal people... are almost all gone!"

Tears, like pearls, rolled down his cheeks, mingling with blood.

Jiaoyin felt a chill rush from the soles of her feet to the top of her head, and her blood seemed to freeze!
It turned out that Jiaoming had been pretending all along. Although they were not from the same father, they were brothers born from the same mother.

He actually colluded with the saltwater crocodile clan!
"They...killed all the merfolk in the palace?" Jiao Yin's voice trembled slightly.

“They didn’t kill them all…” Mo Lin shook his head in anguish. “They spared Princess Jiao Yue, and imprisoned some of the females and cubs deep within the palace. Jiao Ming said… that he would use them to threaten you and force you to show yourself… Your Majesty! You absolutely cannot go back! Going back is suicide! The Saltwater Crocodile King is inside too! They’ve laid a trap for you!”

Mo Lin screamed with his last bit of strength.

Jiaoyin stepped forward to support him, watching as his loyal, wounded subordinate slowly collapsed, lifeless.

He trembled slightly, a tearing pain and rage burning within him! His long silver hair moved without wind in the blood-stained seawater…

He snapped his eyes shut, and when he opened them again, all the pain and struggle in his deep, ocean-like eyes were replaced by an almost tragic resolve.

He slowly turned around and looked at Bai Wanwan, who was being protected behind him and was also speechless with shock at the bad news.

His gaze lingered on her face for a moment, his eyes filled with an extremely complex mix of emotions: unspoken feelings, deep remorse, and the weight of parting.

“Bai Wanwan,” his voice was low and hoarse, with a forced calm, “I can’t go with you to find your beast husband.”
