Chapter 407 Willpower (Bonus Chapter)
Wei Jinmo felt relieved after hearing this. He knew that although his father had to weigh the relationships between various parties on a daily basis, he would not lie to him.
Moreover, he had also learned about the rules left by the ancestors of the sea people, so he knew he couldn't be wrong.
Only then was Wei Jinmo relieved.
He then pulled Su Muyao to sit down next to him.
Even when they sat down, Wei Jinmo still held Su Muyao's hand tightly.
Su Muyao felt a little embarrassed in front of the Sea Emperor. She wanted to take her hand out, but Wei Jinmo held it tightly.
Wei Jinmo lowered her head and looked at Su Muyao with gentle, watery eyes, filled with tolerance and affection.
When Su Muyao met those eyes, which were as blue as the ocean, she found them so beautiful and mysterious that she couldn't help but be captivated by them.
So she forgot to pull her hand away.
Seeing this, the Sea King sighed inwardly. His son was good in every way, except that he was too sentimental.
Fortunately, the other party was a female celestial phoenix, which is something that can only be encountered by chance.
It was also his destiny.
Poseidon coughed, and the two of them snapped out of their daze.
The Sea Emperor explained, "According to the rules of our ancestors, you are now the Crown Prince of the Sea Clan and the next Sea Emperor. Therefore, those punishments are no longer valid."
"Do you blame me for not making you the crown prince before?"
“If I had made you the crown prince back then, perhaps you wouldn’t have had to suffer those punishments.”
The whip fell on him forty-nine times, and even the Sea Emperor felt sorry for him.
Human nature is biased; he favored Wei Jinmo even when the princes were very young.
This remains true even today.
But before he was a father, he was first and foremost the Sea King.
He cannot allow his own selfish desires to plunge the entire sea race into chaos.
If the opportune moment is not right, a crown prince cannot be established.
Wei Jinmo said earnestly, "It's not my fault. I know that Father Emperor had his own reasons."
"Moreover, the powerful families hold great authority, and it is not easy for Father to suppress all forces and maintain a balance."
Moreover, he knew that his father had used him as a link to connect various powerful families and balance the power of all parties when he was young.
He sacrificed himself to be with the females of various families, while those females did not enter the harem, so they could continue to manage their families and continue to marry.
The father didn't care about any of that; he only thought about the stability of the sea tribe.
He understood his father, but if it were him, he certainly wouldn't have done it that way.
His only female partner will be Su Muyao, and no one else.
Moreover, he understood that if it weren't for this incident, Mu Yao might not have opened her heart to him.
The Sea Emperor sighed and said, "You've been intelligent since you were a child, but you weren't interested in many things before, so you didn't participate. Now you..."
"Never mind, this is fine too."
The Sea Emperor knew that Wei Jinmo was extremely talented, but he had previously thought that Wei Jinmo would live on land and inherit the Wei family business.
He secretly thought that this was good, so he could stay away from the conflicts and live a peaceful life.
But it seems that he fell in love with someone, which is why he chose to return to the sea tribe.
Now, the Wei family's business has fallen on his shoulders, and everything of the sea tribe will also fall on his shoulders. Over the years, as the Sea Emperor, he has also had the difficulties of the Sea Emperor, and naturally understands that the burden of the sea tribe is not light.
His other sons, taught by their mother, were closer to the family factions they each supported.
Therefore, he has not yet decided who to choose as the crown prince.
Now he doesn't need to choose; the Poseidon artifact has made the decision for him.
That's Wei Jinmo.
The Sea Emperor didn't want Wei Jinmo to misunderstand, so he explained, "Before, you had no sea clan support behind you, and your own strength was insufficient. If I were to make you the crown prince, it would only put you in a more dangerous situation."
"The reason I wanted to choose a wife's clan for you before was to prepare for this. The Whale Clan is not affiliated with any prince's faction. If they support you..."
Wei Jinmo didn't want to hear the Sea Emperor talk about the whale clan, nor did he want Su Muyao to hear about these things. He said calmly, "Father!"
Since the Sea Emperor saw that Wei Jinmo didn't want him to mention the Whale Clan, he didn't.
He continued, "You did very well tonight. Now that you have the strength, you defeated their powerful elder in front of everyone, which shocked everyone."
"In our sea tribe, strength matters. If you are strong enough, they will respect you."
"Moreover, this trident bearing the mark of the sea god signifies that you will be the successor of the sea god. If you are made crown prince at this time, no one will object." "The trident, a divine artifact of the sea god, is the embodiment of the sea god's will."
The Sea Emperor also had many feelings in his heart, "In the past 100,000 years, no one like this has appeared in our sea race, and the trident has been nowhere to be found."
"Father believes you can bring about a new change for the sea people."
"Father will also have to relinquish his responsibilities in time."
The Sea Emperor also felt a sense of relief at this moment. He had been busy and tense all along, afraid of letting down his ancestors.
He felt that he had at least raised an excellent son.
Su Muyao looked up at Wei Jinmo's forehead, where there was indeed a trident mark, emitting a blue light that made Wei Jinmo look even more mysterious and noble.
The system spoke up: "Host, you are the Celestial Phoenix. It must have been you who chose Wei Jinmo, allowing him to break free of his physical constraints and awaken the power of the Sea God."
At this moment, the Sea Emperor seemed to have thought of something, and asked with shining eyes, "By the way, how did your injuries suddenly heal, and how did you suddenly enter the Spirit Transformation Realm?"
Wei Jinmo said, "Father, it was my wife who saved me, healed my injuries, and helped me improve to my current strength."
“We have made a pact; she is my wife.”
The Sea Emperor looked at the Miss Su next to Wei Jinmo. She possessed a stunningly beautiful face that could make anyone forget the mundane world with just one glance, and she also exuded an ethereal aura.
The Sea Emperor seemed to realize something, and thought to himself in shock, "No wonder, no wonder..."
"You formed a pact with the Celestial Phoenix and had your blood melted with her, which activated the power of the Sea God's inheritance hidden within your body and earned the recognition of the divine artifact."
"All of this is thanks to Miss Su."
The Sea Emperor solemnly said, "Miss Su, thank you for saving my son."
At this point, the Sea Emperor dared not suggest that Miss Su marry his son.
Even now, he is still quite shocked by the Immortal Phoenix.
"However, if the Celestial Phoenix has not yet grown up, some beastmen and forces may try to kill it, so we still need to be careful."
"I have ordered a news blackout, and no one is allowed to discuss the matter of the Immortal Phoenix."
The Sea God wields a scepter, and he can still control the seas and the realms of the sea creatures.
Su Muyao said, "Thank you, Father."
She addressed her father as "Father Emperor" so openly and generously that it thrilled the Sea Emperor.
Wei Jinmo then understood that she was moved because he was willing to call her Father Emperor that way. When he looked down at Su Muyao, his love for her deepened.
Poseidon exclaimed excitedly, "Good, good!"
"You need the Soul Gathering Lamp now, you must want to resurrect someone, right?"
"Having the Soul Gathering Lamp alone is not enough. We need to initiate the Soul Gathering Ceremony and light the Soul Gathering Lamp. Let's go. I'll take you to the Sea Clan Priest's Temple. There are some things the High Priest will help you with."
Su Muyao was taken aback, not expecting that Wei Jinmo would have such conveniences after becoming the crown prince.
"Of course, the High Priest doesn't usually concern himself with the sea tribes' conflicts. The High Priest appears on the orders of the Sea God. Now that you've been recognized by the Sea God's artifact, he should help you with your requests."
If this condition were not met, the high priest would not have offered his assistance.
……
When Su Muyao arrived at the temple and saw the high priest in his silver robe, she felt that his eyes were cold and indifferent, as if he were looking down on the world.
It was as if nothing could elicit a change in his expression.
But when his gaze fell on Su Muyao, he seemed to notice something, and his expression changed.
Thank you to all my lovely readers who have always supported and encouraged me. You guys are so kind! Seeing your support gives me strength. I happen to have some time today, so I'm adding an extra chapter for everyone. I hope you enjoy reading it; the story gets even more exciting later on! [The administrator said that a few controversial comments have been deleted. This wasn't directed at anyone in particular; just letting you know.]
As a sea beastman, Wei Jinmo was destined to become the female protagonist's beastman husband from the very beginning. His storyline was minimal before, but this part of the story needs to be written. It might only take one or two chapters, and some readers might have opinions about the plot, but as you read the whole book, you'll find it to be coherent.
If I were to write that Wei Jinmo defeated four elders with a wave of his hand, people would definitely find something wrong with it, and might even comment that I'm not good at writing these kinds of things.
Previously, when I wrote about Wei Jinmo going to retrieve the Soul Gathering Lamp, I didn't write the whole process in order to simplify the plot and speed up the pace. Some readers gave me some feedback, and I think that one or two chapters of the plot should indeed have been written there.
Some readers have said they want to see powerful battle scenes with the female lead. Actually, in the previous chapter, the male and female leads fought together, which was quite exciting. But if I were to write it again, some readers would definitely have a lot of complaints, saying there would be too much fighting. So, I'll leave it as it is.
The plot unfolds later, and the female lead is a celestial phoenix, so she must be very powerful.
If Wei Jinmo wants to sit in that position, it won't be easy for her, nor will it be convincing without fighting and demonstrating her true strength.
Because the sea creatures here also believe in the strong.
There are many, many more, but I won't explain them all. I'm trying my best, but I can't please everyone. The plot is definitely fine, and I hope you enjoy watching it.
