With her spatial ability to raise beast husbands, the wicked female becomes the darling of the group

Chapter 399 Dark Sea
She felt very sad when she thought about how Wei Jinmo had been seriously injured and even almost lost his life for her sake.

She sensed this sadness and knew that she had unknowingly begun to care about Wei Jinmo.

Perhaps some of her emotions were even stronger than she thought.

She was filled with unease because she was worried that something might happen to Wei Jinmo.

After arranging things, Wei Dong took out a map and placed it in front of Su Muyao. "Miss Su, this is a map of the area around Suojiaoting."

"The Locked Shark Court is divided into three layers of barriers. The outer layer is guarded by golden-armored guards and there are also special patrol guards. The middle layer is set up with a water pattern array. If someone gets close and touches it, the water pattern will turn into an alarm. Even if you are lucky enough to pass through the second layer, there is a burning and killing array set up by the ancestors in the inner layer. Once you get close, it will trigger the strangulation mechanism."

Hearing this, Su Muyao frowned deeply as she looked at the markings on the map. "A Locked Mermaid Court, so meticulously planned."

"Such tight security, could it be that the merfolk imprisoned inside escaped?"

"Isn't Wei Jinmo the prince favored by the Sea Emperor? How could he treat him like this?"

Su Muyao was anxious, her heart felt like it was on fire, and she wished she could go and save Wei Jinmo immediately.

But now is not the time to rush; she must remain calm.

Wei Dong said, "The forces behind the other princes stepped forward and used the rules of the sea tribe to pressure the Sea Emperor, demanding that the Sea Emperor and the royal family imprison the young master in the Mermaid Court."

"The Mermaid Court is well-prepared, so there's no need to worry about the young master being kidnapped. Also, the punishments inside are very severe; an ordinary person would be crippled if they went in."

“Even if you are exceptionally talented and strong, you will not be able to withstand the torture if you are sent in while severely injured.”

"I heard that when he was sent in, the royal elders, following the rules, whipped the young master forty-nine times with the Black Scale Whip. I'm worried that something has happened to him."

Since some things have been told to Miss Su, and Miss Su is going to see the young master, then all the information we have gathered can be told to Miss Su as well.

The system exclaimed in shock, "The Ink Scale Whip! That's a magical weapon of the sea race, with sharp scales on it. Even one lash would be unbearable, let alone forty-nine lashes. They want Wei Jinmo dead."

"These sea beastmen are ruthless."

"Given this situation, Wei Jinmo has no choice but to fight for that position. Taking a step back means certain death, while taking a step forward offers a glimmer of hope."

"But the prerequisite for competing for that position is definitely strength. Only by possessing formidable strength can one prevent others from making objections."

Su Muyao said firmly, "I will help him."

She wants to become stronger so she can help Wei Jinmo.

She wasn't lying when she said that to Wei Jinmo; it was her true feeling.

Su Muyao looked at Wei Dong and said, "So we can't waste time. We must see him as soon as possible. I have healing abilities and can heal his injuries."

Wei Dong said, "I'm thinking of creating chaos to lure the guards around the Merfolk Court away, and then using manpower and magical artifacts to clear the way. That would cause a great commotion, but as long as we leave the sea tribe, everything will be fine. The sea tribe and the major land powers signed the Heavenly Dao Covenant a long time ago, and the sea tribe and the land do not interfere with each other."

Su Muyao said, "No, that would be too much of a loss. Since we can't enter from around the Mermaid Court, is there any other passage, or is there any way to enter from underground?"

Su Muyao believed that people could come up with solutions.

Wei Dong seemed to have thought of something, and hesitated, unsure whether to speak.

Seeing his expression, Su Muyao said sharply, "Wei Dong, now that things have come to this, there is no need to hide anything. Saving your young master is the most important thing."

Wei Dong always felt that Su Muyao's eyes could see through everything.

Wei Dong said, "There is indeed a place. It is said that the place where the Merfolk Court was built is connected to a sea area underground. It was once a glorious place of the sea race civilization, but it is said that many things happened 100,000 years ago. That place was invaded by darkness and is now a dark sea area without any life. It was abandoned and separated by a sealing barrier. The Merfolk Court was built there to block the dark sea area and prevent the darkness from continuing to spread."

"The sea creatures once tried to purify that sea area, but it was no use. It is said that only a beast god with pure and purifying golden light can purify the dark aura."

"Some sea beastmen also went to that sea area, but they were all invaded by darkness, their mental seas rioted, their bodies mutated, and then they died."

"So that place is also called the Sea Clan Graveyard." Su Muyao understood immediately. "Then we'll enter from this place. We won't alert any beastmen, and we won't lose any manpower."

The men Wei Jinmo entrusted to Wei Dong were probably trusted subordinates whom Wei Jinmo had painstakingly trained among the sea tribes; they couldn't afford to lose them here.

"But……"

Su Muyao said, "I'll be fine. I still need to rescue Wei Jinmo. That's the decision."

Su Muyao's words were not to be refuted.

"But I have another task for you. When I enter the Mermaid Court, you'd better make sure no one else enters."

Wei Dong nodded firmly and said, "Don't worry."

……

After arranging everything, Wei Dong led his men to quietly send Su Muyao to the border of the Dark Sea.

From this boundary, Su Muyao could see that it was completely dark inside, with storms occasionally rising up. Although it was the sea, it was not blue, but black. It was desolate inside, but there were some abandoned buildings, which should be the buildings of the sea tribe from a long time ago.

It is not hard to see that this place was once a prosperous land for sea creatures.

Su Muyao took out the magical artifact given to her by Wei Dong and placed it in the corner. A vortex appeared, and Su Muyao quickly entered it.

As soon as she entered, a dark whirlwind swept towards Su Muyao, and the surrounding atmosphere became very cold.

Su Muyao was about to activate her wood-type ability, but before she could use it, the dark whirlwind and dark vegetation seemed to be afraid and automatically avoided her.

Su Muyao was stunned. "What's going on?"

At that moment, Su Muyao didn't notice that the mark of the ice and snow spirit beast on her collarbone was emitting a light.

This light carried a faint, oppressive aura of darkness, so none of the dark forces here dared to harm Su Muyao.

The system was also surprised. "I don't know. It's really strange. These dark things seem to be afraid of you and dare not hurt you."

"And there's something even stranger. Look, those mutated dark corals, seaweed, and other mutated plants are all bowing down to you. It's absolutely bizarre."

At this moment, Su Muyao was unaware that she was connected to Nalan Guixue. Even though she later released him from his marriage contract, it was a fact that they had a close relationship and formed a bond.

Su Muyao swam forward tentatively for a while and, finding no danger, felt relieved.

"If you can't figure it out, don't think about it for now. Saving lives is the priority."

This saves her from using her wood-based supernatural power.

And so, Su Muyao successfully entered the Mermaid's Court through the underwater passage.

Reaching the end, she opened the barrier and pushed aside a loose stone slab, revealing the long corridor inside.

Every ten steps along both sides of the corridor is an ice lantern, its pale blue light casting a chilling glow over the corridor.

"It's really cold here."

The system said, "Normally, merfolk can't stand the cold. The reason the temperature here is so low is to deal with Wei Jinmo."

"No wonder the Mermaid Court was built on the edge of the Dark Sea, where the cold air from the Dark Sea can constantly flow into this place."

"Fortunately, the dark auras automatically avoided you, so you didn't feel cold just now."

"However, these people probably didn't expect that you used your wood-type ability to heal Wei Jinmo's body before, and he is no longer afraid of the cold."
