"Pretending not to have seen him" was just a joke Figo made. He just didn't expect that the trouble with this seemingly kind and honest guy, Shuba, would be so... so... so much.

But since the matter involves Qinghai, Figo naturally had to get involved a little.

Taking something without permission is theft.

If the merfolk wanted to take away Poseidon's power a thousand years ago, then so be it. It was to fight the demons, and it was what they deserved after generations of sacrifice.

What is it that, after peace has been restored, they want to obtain this power and try to control a giant sea king of the five-light level?

They put a chain on Chuba to confirm that he wasn't lying, except that he was hiding his name; his real name was Chuba.

Figo had already started making plans in his mind.

As for the 93% capture success rate, it wasn't because Figo attacked Shuba, but because, for Figo in his current state, Shuba, in MR4, was chained up, and his chances of breaking free were only 7%.

He probably severed his arm to escape in the first place.

"Your move just now was enough to allow the merfolk to discover your location?"

Xiuba said, "In most cases, the high priests of the merfolk throughout history have been very good at divination. They will soon find out about Mulunbu's death, see through my disguise, and continue to hunt me down... But I am still quite confident that I can shake them off."

Merfolk have some precognitive abilities in their bloodline. Ten thousand years ago, the merfolk and the Raibur tribe were very close, and the Merfolk Queen and the Raibur King were even husband and wife.

A friendship like that of fish and cat.

“Stop running away. Stay here and wait for them to come. I’ll plead with them on your behalf. Since the plan has failed, and you’re both almost a hundred years old, there’s no point in clinging on. The merfolk should give me that face,” Figo said.

Xiuba was overjoyed.

He missed Loulan and his son so much that he couldn't bear it when the Mulunbu merchant group captured Bich's wife and son, and chose to take the risk and act.

There's a cause and an effect; without these events, he would never have been able to see or beg Figo.

……

A few hours later, all six dukes also learned about what had happened to the Mullenberg merchant caravan.

They were all naturally furious.

On one hand, they were furious that a mere merchant guild leader who lit three lamps dared to deceive them.

On the other hand, the anger involved the merfolk—if the merfolk came to find Chubba, wouldn't they be able to discover them and know about the existence of the Level 5 Light? This would definitely come at a higher price, otherwise those guys with superior fighting power in the water would be enough to give them a headache just by causing trouble.

Yes, they all know about Chubba.

How could the Merfolk's loss of such a major event as their 'treasure' be completely kept from Capri?

However, they ignored it and even thought to themselves, "Well done!"

But this time it wasn't pretty.

The deed is done, and there's nothing they can do to undo it. Driving away Shuba won't help either, especially since Figo has indicated he'll interfere in Shuba's affairs. All they can do is quickly change the blockade to the correct one and try to find the light before the mermaids arrive.

Of course, some people went to hunt down the remaining high-ranking members of the Mulunbu merchant group and vent their anger.

Figo stopped paying attention and didn't participate much in the search for the lights. He spent his days like he was on vacation, swimming in the nearby sea and catching two rather unintelligent sea creatures to eat.

Actually, he was practicing swordsmanship.

Sharpening knives does not miss woodcutters.

He had just lit the sword-wielding lamp, but its brightness was only level one. Even if he found the level five sword-wielding lamp, there was absolutely no way he could catch it.

Violent capture will only destroy the lights.

Even last-minute preparation can be effective.

Moreover, to put it shamelessly, Figo is a swordsmanship genius, but his talent has been hampered by the excessive physical attributes he gained from his prison records.

After lighting the lamp and breaking the 100w swordsmanship data limit, Figo's swordsmanship lamp brightness increased every second as he practiced!

After all, given his strength and weaponry, even if Figo were to casually develop a sword technique called "Great Skill Without Artificiality, Heavy Sword Without Edge," the number one swordsman in the starry sky would have to admit his admiration.

Level 1 to Level 2.

Level 3 in three days.

Just as Figo's swordsmanship was slowly climbing towards level four and was starting to stall, the pursuit team from the Merfolk and Fish-Men arrived.

……

Shuba is not weak, so this team is very strong. The leader is the king of the fishmen, Gening, who lit the five lamps.

Gening is a bull shark human, over eight meters tall, extremely strong, with clearly defined blue muscles, two rows of sharp teeth in his mouth, a wide and long nose, arched back, and a fierce appearance on his face.

Upon arriving at this sea area, they immediately noticed the guards of the Cassie Merchant Guild who were subtly controlling and sealing off the area.

Naturally, he didn't immediately think of the rare level five lights, but instead suspected that Xiuba had offended the Cassie Merchant Guild.

So they showed up in person to communicate.

Soon, the squad was brought before Duke Cassius of the Ghost Clan.

Cassius's face was grim, because they had not yet found any trace of the level five lights.

Upon meeting, he immediately made a sarcastic remark to Gening: "You mermaids and fishmen really despise the guy who stole your 'treasure,' and you, as the Fishman King, have actually come in person."

Gening didn't mince words: "I thought your merchant group had caused such a commotion because of Qiuba, but I didn't expect you to be here in person. It seems... we've come at the right time. Perhaps you need our help with something?"

"It can't be hidden anymore!" Cassius sneered. "That's a lamp of swordsmanship. What help can you merfolk offer?"

"Swordsmanship...it's actually swordsmanship?"

There are very few sword saints among the merfolk and mermaid races, and their squad has none at all.

Genning frowned, and after a moment's consideration, he made a decision: "Then we can help you search for the location of the lights. In return, you just need to help us capture Chewba. Don't tell me you didn't keep an eye on his movements after he caused a ruckus around here!"

Cassius had anticipated this, but it would be great if the deal could be reached this way.

“I’m sorry, this is not something I can decide right now, nor can the others. Chuba is in the hands of the King of the Stars, and he intends to negotiate with you on Chuba’s behalf. You should discuss it with him.”

"The King of the Stars?!"

Grinning exclaimed in astonishment, "Him? Make peace? On what grounds does he make peace for us?! What reason do we have to make peace with that bastard?!"

Cassius chuckled and looked at him.

Grin realized what was happening.

"Land of Hope, the Queen's Bloodline?"

Cassius chuckled and looked at him.

Grin frowned and asked in a low voice, "Has the King of the Stars lit the sixth lamp?"

Cassius chuckled and looked at him.

A flash of anger crossed the shark's face: "What's with that look?! You bastard, so what if he's the King of the Stars? Does he think he can interfere in the private affairs of the Mermaid Royal Family?!"

He turned around and pointed to a cold-faced merman youth diagonally behind him, saying, "I'm personally taking action this time to settle things for this child!"

Although Balu's birth was illegitimate, he possessed sufficient talent and was very ambitious. He had the potential to become the next Level 5 King of the Merfolk. More importantly, he had never acknowledged his human father, the Star King. What did he have to say about that?!

Cassius paused, looking at the mermaid youth: "Is he the son of Chewba and your mermaid princess?"

Balu retorted, "I am not the son of Chubba, I have no father, and I will personally kill the guy who has haunted my mother's life."

After saying that, he asked Gening, "Please help me with the King of the Stars."

Genning smiled with satisfaction and straightened his back.

The merfolk never bend over!

Chapter 321 Suspense Drama

What started as a third-rate romance drama has turned into a family drama. Figo looks at the fish-man youth who bears a faint resemblance to Shuba. He should be having a headache, but for some reason, he just wants to laugh.

What kind of mess is this?

A merman princess who ran away from home, a kind human youth she met by chance, their forbidden love cruelly torn apart, the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl unable to meet, and now a son with a twisted personality due to his childhood experiences has appeared, wanting to kill his father.

Too many elements.

Balu seemed quite courageous, meeting Figo's gaze head-on. Perhaps because he had heard that Figo was going to mediate, his gaze even carried a hint of hostility, and his face was icy cold.

Opposite Figo, the Fishman King Gening was also staring at Figo. The two had already shaken hands, and he had conveyed his attitude to Figo.

A person's name, a tree's shadow.

It must be said that during Figo's silence, Grin felt somewhat repressed.

The six dukes who arrived one after another simply watched the show, some even gloating and perhaps secretly hoping for a fight.

"Regarding the Queen's inherited power, if the King of the Stars wants an explanation, please come with me to the bottom of the sea to talk to the old mermaid. If we have the opportunity to meet the Queen's true bloodline descendants in the future, we will apologize and make amends to her."

Seeing that Figo remained silent for a long time, Genning added in a deep voice, "But Chubba's 'stealing of the mermaid clan's treasure' is another matter. His actions have tainted the bloodline and heritage of the mermaid royal family, and this is a private matter within our clan!"

“Hmm, the Fishman King’s words make sense.” Figo nodded slightly: “But love and affection are human nature and common sense. Since Chewba didn’t use force back then, wasn’t it a bit excessive to kill him all? Is it also inappropriate to use the rules of your tribe to judge humans and overstep the laws of the Capri?”

Grin paused.

In a world where the strong rule, you, the strongest being in the cosmos, dare to talk to me about laws?!

The key point is that what he said doesn't seem to have any problems?

"However, although the mermaid princess Loulan was already 30 years old, she had little contact with the outside world. Qiuba is suspected of abducting and deceiving an innocent girl, which is morally wrong. Therefore, he is punished by formally marrying that girl and serving her like a slave for the rest of his life to make amends..."

Grinning's dead fish eyes suddenly widened.
