If her sister ran around and died outside, it goes without saying that Liya's work enthusiasm and loyalty would decrease, and You Chen doesn't want to see such a situation.
However, You Chen still planned to try Regent first.
In order to achieve this goal, You Chen took the initiative to spread rumors and deliberately let Li Jing know that he was teaching Li Ya the supreme spiritual secret method.
Lijing was completely unaware, and all her reactions were visible under Youchen's spiritual observation.
Fortunately, although Regent clearly showed her unwillingness and resentment, she had not yet generated any tasks on Youchen's panel.
But no one knew what You Chen was thinking. Lina, who watched the whole process, was terrified.
"Master, that child is just a little bit stupid. At most, he wanted to escape. He definitely didn't think of doing anything that would harm the master!"
Lina hurriedly connected to Youchen and said anxiously in a panicked tone: "As long as you are willing to forgive Lijing's disrespect, I am willing to do anything!"
You Chen looked at Lina, who had poked her head out from her soul ring with an earnest expression on her face, and was suddenly speechless.
Looking at the other person's inexplicably red face, You Chen recalled that he forgot to cut off Lina's power when educating Bo Saixi before, and immediately understood what was going on.
Looking at Lina's expression which was obviously fearful but also had a hint of expectation, You Chen really didn't know how to comment.
Are you sure you want to exchange conditions instead of asking for benefits?
Besides, hadn't he said anything about what he was going to do to Li Jing? Hadn't he already promised to solve the problem of Li Jing wanting to run away? Why was he still worried?
but……
You Chen glanced at the charming expression on Lina's beautiful face. There was no reason to miss out on this delicious food that was delivered to his door.
Even though his physical aptitude has improved, You Chen still prefers to do research rather than improving his body.
This physical practice is too repetitive, even You Chen feels a little bored.
Using this kind of thing as a diversion from the boring life of cultivation is a good choice.
It just so happens that I can vent the inevitable rush of blood during the expansion of physical strength.
You Chen immediately took out the juvenile body of Lina from the refrigerator and said, "I have talked to you before about the problem of reshaping the body, right? In fact, the process will be much simpler if you have the original body. Even now, you can return to your original body for a short time. But you can't leave me too far, and you need to rest for a longer time afterwards."
Upon hearing the good news, Lina's eyes immediately lit up.
With You Chen's approval, it flew out of the soul ring and directly merged into its original body.
I have to say that the Douluo World is a very magical world, where the influence of the idealistic realm can be clearly seen.
In the original novel, after Xiao Wu's soul entered the body of the juvenile rabbit, it quickly expanded back to human form.
And Lina is similar now.
The body, which originally looked like a five or six-year-old loli, underwent a metamorphosis after being injected with the soul body. It grew instantly and quickly returned to its original length of three meters.
"I, I really have changed back!?"
Lina flapped her fish tail and moved her head to look left and right. After confirming the touch again and again, she finally let out a surprised cheer.
"Great! Master, thank you!"
Lina had no sense of being an old woman who was almost 600,000 years old. She jumped onto You Chen like a little girl, happily wrapped her tail around You Chen's waist, and rubbed her collagen-filled cheeks vigorously against You Chen's chest.
This was also the first time that You Chen observed the mermaid's body structure up close.
To be honest, You Chen was really curious about the difference between mermaids and humans in that aspect.
Noticing You Chen's gaze, Lina recalled what she had said before and her pretty face blushed, but she did not hide it. Instead, she intentionally or unintentionally posed in a somewhat seductive and figure-revealing posture.
"Master~~~"
Lina clung to You Chen, her eyes seductive as silk, and she made sounds that sounded like splashing water.
To be honest, You Chen didn't know why the Sea Princess was inexplicably aroused by him.
If we really want to analyze it in detail, it is probably that she was conquered by You Chen's strength, grateful for You Chen's keeping his promise, had to rely on You Chen's Stockholm complex, was attracted by You Chen's heavenly appearance, or there are several possibilities that are all of the above.
Just like men will fall in love at first sight without knowing anything about a pretty girl as long as they see her photo, women are more emotional creatures, but it is also common for them to be attracted and conquered by strong and charming men without any interaction.
However, there is no need to make such unromantic analysis at this moment.
You Chen had come to Douluo Continent and had tasted fox girls and dragon girls before, but this was his first time with a mermaid...
But it doesn't prevent it from being more romantic.
You Chen showed a faint smile on his face and gently patted the part where Lina's body and fish tail were connected, as if touching some sensitive point, causing the mermaid queen to shiver again.
Then, he leaned his cheek closer and whispered, "I have a plan, Nana, I hope you can cooperate with me."
"It's all up to you..."
Lina's ears turned red and her voice became soft.
Even though she was shocked after hearing the details of You Chen's "plan", she still nodded shyly in the end.
"I only agreed because my master wanted me to forgive Li Jing. Yes, all this was for Li Jing."
Lina hypnotized herself silently in her heart.
……
On this day, Regent was strolling in the corridor of the Crystal Palace again.
With a face that made the patrolling sea soul beasts retreat, she silently observed the patrol routes of the soul beasts around her. Obviously, she was familiarizing herself with and planning her own escape route and timing.
"Mother, Liya, you both disappoint me so much!"
Lijing crossed her arms, thinking back to the surprise she felt when her mother reappeared a month ago, and the shock she felt when she talked to her afterwards.
"Lijing, after I asked the master for help, he has already promised to protect the mermaids. So what if the captive is the high priest? We haven't established a clear offensive and defensive alliance. The most important thing is...even the high priest himself has been defeated, how are you going to resist? Even for my sake, please show due respect to the master, okay? Don't make things difficult for me."
Lijing couldn't understand why her mother gave in so easily. Was it because she was promised to be resurrected? Was she willing to give up her dignity just for this? Then what was the point of the mermaids' persistence in the past?
What's more, it's possible that the promise was just a blank check to deceive the mermaids into working for them!
But... Lijing didn't want to put her mother in a difficult position after all.
So after that, at least on the surface, Lijing restrained her dissatisfaction and resentment towards You Chen, took the initiative to apologize, and greeted You Chen politely whenever she met him afterwards.
But this does not mean that she has given up the idea of escaping from this man's control.
She did not rashly look for her former servants or the sea soul beasts under them, but instead went to her good sister first.
However, after seeing how devoted Liya was to Youchen and even took the initiative to make many cruel suggestions on the interrogation of Bo Saixi, Lijing backed off.
She found that she had never really understood her sister, and from now on, she felt that she would never be able to understand her again.
She gave up the idea of convincing her sister to run away with her.
Just when Lijing was preparing to escape with a few familiar sea soul beasts, news came from the Crystal Palace that Youchen had stepped in and helped them deal with the three hundred thousand year soul beasts that attempted to invade.
Looking at the soul beasts who seemed to have forgotten that many of their compatriots had died tragically at the hands of You Chen a month ago, and were now celebrating You Chen's strength and being grateful for his protection, Li Jing felt a chill...
She realized that no one would really support her.
Because the previous and current princesses of the Sea Princess lineage both support You Chen, and You Chen himself possesses unparalleled power.
She has no moral integrity, nor can she offer benefits and protection that would appeal to other sea soul beasts.
Perhaps in the huge group of sea soul beasts, there are indeed people who share the same hatred as her, but Lijing knows that she does not have such foresight and cannot afford the risk of being reported to You Chen.
She...can only escape by herself.
Escape from this place that has become so unfamiliar to her.
With this idea in mind, Regent continued to scout and plan future escape routes in the Crystal Palace as usual.
"Ok?"
Suddenly, a hint of joy appeared on Lijing's face.
As she walked, the noise around her gradually faded away.
She realized that she had reached a node where the patrol officers were hollow.
She secretly noted the time and approximate location, then continued walking forward.
She wanted to carefully find out how big the gap was on this patrol route and where it extended to.
This is how it can be connected with her other route plans.
To Regent's surprise, after walking through several branch corridors, she still didn't see any patrolling figures, and the sound of patrolling footsteps gradually died down around her.
"Even if it was a mistake in the patrol route planning, isn't this gap too obvious? Who arranged this patrol plan?"
Although she had planned to leave the Crystal Palace, Regent still had a sense of ownership and couldn't help but feel some resentment in her heart.
I continued to explore with such little emotion, and suddenly, some indescribable sounds came into my ears.
Although Lijing was a virgin, she was not so unfamiliar with what the sound was.
"So, it's actually like this!?"
Hearing this voice, Lijing's face first turned red, and then she became angry.
She had already figured out the reason why there was no patrol in this area.
In all likelihood, a sea soul beast deliberately sent away the other patrol personnel in order to make it easier for itself to do this task.
Lijing raised her brows and suddenly an idea came to her mind.
'Perhaps, I can catch these two people who are disturbing public order and morality and let them help me in the future.'
So, Lijing restrained her breath and swam silently towards the room where the sound came from.
However, what surprised Regent was that the water flow near the corridor where the room was located had been completely evacuated, creating an environment similar to that of an underground prison with air but slightly humid.
Although Regent felt strange, she didn't take it too seriously.
Although sea soul beasts prefer to live in water, they are not immediately unable to move without water. Rather, a large number of sea soul beasts can live on land for a short period of time.
It is not even ruled out that the water in this area, including this room, was specially pumped out for some special purpose...like humans playing in the bathroom.
Lijing didn't care what kind of things these guys who abused their power were doing. She only cared about whether she could catch them.
Try to reduce the volume of sound that is transmitted from the water to the air and keep moving forward.
The room was not completely closed, and that was why such obvious sounds could be heard.
She leaned close to the crack in the door, then widened her eyes in shock.
"W-What!?"
Although the panting sounded somewhat familiar to Lijing, she didn't think in that direction at all.
But reality slapped her hard in the face.
"How is this possible? Isn't my mother a spirit? Why, why would she do such a thing with that man!? "
Regent covered her mouth, trying not to scream in surprise.
Seeing her usually dignified and loving mother showing such a beastly posture, for some reason, Lijing felt that she could not look away at all, as if her eyes were sucked in.
The mermaid clan is a typical matriarchal society. If female mermaids are top-level soul beasts, then male mermaids can only be considered high-level soul beasts.
Firstly, they do not have the powerful auxiliary ability like the female mermaid, and their combat ability is not as good as the female mermaid. They only have a slight advantage in physical strength. However, this degree of advantage is not necessarily comparable to the seven vassal tribes. Overall, they can only be regarded as high-level soul beasts.
Although Lijing and Liya had met their father, they had no feelings for him. At their current age, that biological father would have turned to ashes long ago.
In Regent's simple view, females should dominate males.
Especially the most powerful mother in the lineage of the Sea Princess so far, she is the female among females, she is the one who will dominate the world and make all the heroes submit to her!
And now, this mother who should overwhelm all males in her eyes is like a Q-shy girl, showing her foolishness and being raped at will.
After looking at it for a long time, Lijing finally came back to her senses.
Her muddled brain finally regained some rationality.
Lijing realized at the first moment that her goal of blackmail could not be achieved.
She couldn't help but start thinking about the question she had at the beginning. Her mother's posture clearly showed that she was in the form of a physical body. Could it be that her mother was not dead at all? If so, why did she have to kowtow to this man! ?
Regent was very shocked and couldn't understand.
At this moment, as if on time, the two people in the room stopped their restlessness and began to be gentle and have a conversation.
"Lina, don't worry. Although Li Jing is a bit fierce, she is your daughter after all. I treat her as my own daughter. Even if she has been planning to escape, in my opinion, it is just a child playing with adults. How can I blame her?"
You Chen showed a gentle look, as if he had really become a kind father.
"Hmm~"
