After transmigrating through countless worlds, the Beast Tamer Cub plucked all the Heavenly Dao bein

Well, okay, there is still some bias. While the merfolk's problem is serious, it's overt, and there's still a possibility of redemption. The Burial Clan is different; by the time they discover the problem, their race will probably be on the verge of extinction. But what can you do when they're the ones who invented that damn curse?

Actually, Mumu thinks that if someone can research something that threatens the world, then they have potential; they just haven't used it in the right way.

But Mumu could understand. Although there were many love-struck mermaids at the time, they were ultimately useless. As the situation later became clear, the highest-ranking mermaids possessed absolute power, controlling most of the wealth and resources. That's why they were able to directly eliminate two-thirds of those love-struck individuals.

Despite their large number, two-thirds of these mermaids are actually commoners from the lowest rungs of society. Even if they all joined forces, they might not be able to kill many members of the royal family. Moreover, it's impossible for them to completely unite.

The Burial Clan's grand scheme of infatuation only works on the lower classes. Even when the "love-obsessed" trend was at its peak, the higher-ups remained clear-headed; no royal mermaid went to Burial to pursue a romantic relationship.

Looking back now, the mermaid royal family at the time may have also used the idea of ​​burying people to fool them, but they didn't expect that they would end up fooling themselves.

If we have to argue about who's right and who's wrong... in this kind of simple game, there's no right or wrong, only different perspectives. The world isn't black and white anyway; gray is the majority.

However, if Mumu were to say it now, perhaps the best choice would have been to have eaten all the mermaids that came to him and slowly accumulated power. After all, the Heavenly Dao wouldn't interfere in a simple conflict between two races, and eating mermaids would allow him to obtain their power. Although they were all common mermaids, their numbers were considerable, and they would certainly have some use.

After this, he still couldn't confront the merfolk head-on, but he had gained some bargaining power, and could proceed with the rest gradually.

Of course, this is all based on Mumu's perspective of seeing the results now, which is commonly known as hindsight. So, based solely on this, we can't say that those who buried [the land] were stupid.

However, if the ocean is completely polluted, even if the creatures live on land, they still live in the same world and are subject to the same water cycle. Can they really escape?

This is what Mumu truly finds foolish.

So Lanlu gave the merfolk a chance, but not Mai. Mai seemed clever, but in reality, he was utterly foolish.

The mermaids seized the opportunity given by Heaven, quickly eliminating the cursed mermaids. After that, although some newborn mermaid babies still had problems, not every one of them was affected. Furthermore, the problems were no longer concentrated in their tails but appeared in other areas as well.

This isn't really a bad thing, because the tail is incredibly important to the merfolk; it's their source of power. That's why many strange, deformed children appeared among the merfolk later on. This is why Mumu was able to bring Ningbao and Number One into the city.

At least the situation of the entire tribe has been temporarily stabilized; as for its decline, that's inevitable. There's always a price to pay for wrongdoing, isn't there?

Morris looked at Number One for a while longer, but couldn't recall having such a little prince. Although the situation of the mermaid race had temporarily stabilized, the pollution of the Heart of the Ocean was an established fact, so the quality and quantity of mermaid babies in recent generations were truly declining with each generation.

It's absolutely impossible for royalty to lower their standards regarding tails. Ever since the birth of the first mermaid in the world, the tail has been regarded as the most important honor for a mermaid. This belief is not only engraved in the mermaid's bones, but almost melted into her soul.

Compared to that, minor flaws in baby mermaids are much more acceptable. Like number one, who only has a horn on his head—it's not a big deal at all—he shouldn't have been abandoned by the royal family.

After all, there are very few royal mermaid babies this generation, only sixteen in total. You have to understand, at the peak, there could be hundreds of mermaids at once, otherwise how could the royal family be so clearly divided into different ranks?

As for Mumu, although she does look somewhat like a mermaid, this world, while lacking snakes due to its small land area, does have aquatic creatures like eels. To Morris, Mumu's lower body is simply that of an eel, just the wrong color. Even if Mumu were a mermaid, the problem lies in her tail, which essentially disqualifies her from being a mermaid.

"Your Highness?"

Chris called out tentatively. Even though Number One's tail was smaller than Coco's, Coco was already the most talented mermaid baby of this generation. Chris believed his own talent was inferior to Number One's, so calling her "Little Prince" was fine.

Alas, this is the tragedy of the lowest-ranking members of the royal family. They appear glamorous, but in reality, no one in the royal family can afford to offend them. They usually just act as bodyguards.

Number One looked at Chris with a somewhat bewildered expression, then twisted his body and hid behind Mumu.

Coco's eyes lit up, and she swam over to grab Number One's hand with obvious familiarity. Haha, finally there's a baby smaller than her! Coco is no longer the youngest mermaid in the royal family! (^0^)/

Although Number One looks about the same age as Coco, Coco unilaterally believes that Number One will be her younger brother from now on.

Number One was even more at a loss after having his hand grabbed, and looked to Mu Mu and Ning Bao for help.

Mumu tried to speak up to help, but Chris stopped her without saying a word. Chris clearly didn't show the same respect to Mumu, a "mermaid" with an abnormal tail, as he did to Number One.

Hoping that the little kitten Bai Gao inside the bubble could save them is impossible. So Number One can only place all their hopes on Ning Bao.

Ningbao swam over with a piece of blue crystal in her arms, just as expected. Under the expectant gaze of Number One, the blue crystal Ningbao was carrying shattered, and then the child quickly replaced it with another piece.

Yes, a diligent baby should never forget to cultivate.

Now, Coco stopped trying to hold onto Number One and started circling around Ningbao. To put it bluntly, she just wanted a playmate, and now that she'd seen something new and interesting, she naturally put Number One out of her mind for the time being.

"How could you absorb a whole blue crystal in such a short time? Even Coco couldn't."

A flawless version after careful inspection!

Coco has been praised as the most talented mermaid baby since she was little, but it takes her a month to absorb a piece of blue crystal. This little clam is so strange.

Is it difficult?

Ning Bao asked in bewilderment.

There is no romantic relationship between Number One and Coco; they are not a couple. Their relationship is purely sibling-like. After all, Number One is a fake infant who is several thousand years old, while Coco is a real infant. This story focuses on family and friendship, not romance between the young characters.

Coco: They're clearly siblings! Siblings! (Angrily hands on hips)

Ningbao: The little cub doesn't have a waist (shakes head)

Coco: You don't have a waist, Coco does! (points to her chubby little belly)

Ningbao: Well, Ningbao has one too! (Also showing off her chubby little belly)

(The two little cubs look at each other) Ningbao, Coco: Little cubs have waists too! (They shake their heads in unison)

Mumu: ...What you call a belly?
