Chapter 605: Chapter 603: Give You a Full Score Plus Ten Points! Chapter 605: Chapter 603: Give You a Full Score Plus Ten Points! Sally felt a sudden jolt at the bottom of her heart.
She asked, “Who is the Empress?”
The woman replied, “She’s a female from the Shark Clan, I’ve heard she’s already pregnant.”
“Here’s your shrimp balls noodle soup,” the owner served Sally.
“Thank you.” Sally picked up the soup spoon, took a sip of the broth, and found it deliciously fresh and savory, “This is so delicious, the owner’s cooking skills are unparalleled.”
The owner smiled and said, “I’ll throw in a at pastry as well.”
“Old Nian, why aren’t you giving a at pastry?” the woman cooed.
“Here you go, for you too,” the owner gave the woman a pastry.
“What’s your beast body?” the woman asked Sally. To show that she ant no harm, she voluntarily revealed her own beast body, “I’m a Fiery Crane, just call Tong Yun.”
Sally replied with a smile, “Nice to et you, Tong Yun, I’m Xiao Su from the Rat Clan.”
“The Rat Clan?” Tong Yun was surprised, “Is that from the Jungle Rat or the Swamp Rat?”
“The Jungle Rat Clan.” Sally took a bite of her noodle, made from fish maw, especially chewy and crisp, “Owner, I’ll have another bowl of this.”
“You got it,” the owner responded.
“Old Nian, I want another bowl too, with extra shrimp balls,” Tong Yun called out.
“Xiao Su, why do you think the Beast Emperor has taken a fancy to a female from the Shark Clan? I’ve heard the males of the Shark Clan are alright, but the females are quite ugly.”
“I don’t know; I’m just traveling around. I happened to co to the Southern District and when in Ro, do as the Romans do—I’m just inquiring about local customs,” Sally replied.
“Aren’t you afraid of danger, traveling alone?” the owner asked Sally.
Sally answered with a laugh, “Of course, I have sothing to rely on.”
After finishing the shrimp balls noodle soup, Sally gave the owner a Superior Crystal Coin and then left.
The owner, holding the Superior Crystal Coin, was stunned for a long while, “This is an Ancient Coin from a thousand years ago.”
Tong Yun looked in the direction where Sally had disappeared, already out of sight, “Seems like she’s an eminent person, Old Nian, you’ve made a fortune.”
“Yes, I don’t need to work for the rest of the year,” the owner chuckled as he put away the Superior Crystal Coin.
“That won’t do, I love your cooking,” Tong Yun said, giggling as she moved closer to the owner.
The owner pushed her away and seeing a new custor coming, he called out, “Today’s drinks are on the house—”
…
Sally stood on the shore of the Canglan Sea in the heart of the Southern District, enjoying the pleasant sea breeze, hesitant to dive into the sea and head towards the Sea Emperor Capital City.
She didn’t go into the sea, but soone couldn’t wait and ca out directly from the water.
Rong Ruo wore a pale white casual outfit emblazoned with fish patterns, his pale blue hair reaching past his waist and only tied with a gold hairband which glimred with the faint light of ocean waves.
His ice-blue eyes were filled with profound tenderness, reflecting Sally’s face, “I’ve been waiting for you since you entered the Southern District. And here you are, strolling east and west with ti to spare, eating swamp delicacies, visiting fairs, playing gas with frog children, singing with carp demons… even when you heard the Beast Emperor was to marry an Empress, you didn’t co to find in anger.”
With her hands clasped behind her back, Sally looked up at him with mirthful eyes, “You spread false news about marrying an Empress all along the way, just to make rush to you, didn’t you? Well, I just won’t.”
“You see through it and still don’t co, don’t you care?”
“I wanted to see if the Southern District you govern is as clear as a river and peaceful as the sea, if the people are healthy and the lands prosperous. And I’m very satisfied~ I give you full marks plus ten!”
Rong Ruo hugged her tightly into his arms, “Yanyan.”
“I’m running out of breath; let go a bit…”
“Are you alright?” Rong Ruo still held her close.
“Mm… I’m quite good,” Sally reached back to hug him, her breath filled with the scent of his ocean fragrance, “You’re about to ascend, right?”
“I probably won’t ascend for another hundred and eighty years, I’ve suppressed my cultivation base to nurture the next Beast Emperor.”
“The next Beast Emperor?” Sally looked up at him, “Who is it?”
Rong Ruo took her hand and strolled along the beach, “Rong Wu has a son with a Dual-Beast Body, already split between land and sea, and now his sea beast body is already here in the Southern District. I am taking care of it personally.”
“That’s good. Xiaoqi just refuses to split, and there’s nothing I can do about it.”
“No need, Xiaoqi is still a child.” Thinking of her own daughter, Rong Ruo’s face revealed a warm and indulgent smile.
“Hmph, everyone’s pretending to be a child.” Sally comnted.
“Xiaoqi is a pureblood Deep Sea Blue Shark, and it naturally takes a long ti for her to grow up. It’s not an act,” Rong Ruo said with a smile.
“Alright then.” Sally shrugged, “Speaking of Rong Ruo, on this trip to the Lower Realm, I visited him in the palace. He has aged a lot, his hair turning white.”
Rong Wu’s cultivation base had always been suppressed below the Spirit Rank.
It wasn’t due to a lack of talent but for the sake of the Eastern District.
In the war between Gods and Demons, his trained Crown Prince was lost. The Eastern District could not be without an emperor, so he sacrificed his own talent and has been diligently governing the Eastern District. Nowadays, it still stands as the foremost on the continent.
“Yes, he has four years of life left. I’ve offered to share my life with him nurous tis, but he has always refused. He says he has lived enough and wants to reincarnate to beco a mber of the Demon Clan.”
“The Demon Clan?” Sally suddenly rembered Basque Moru…
“What’s wrong?” Rong Ruo asked when he saw her pause.
Sally suddenly smiled, “Rong Wu truly is a responsible male.”
“…” Rong Ruo frowned slightly, “Do you like him?”
“No, no, not at all.” Sally hastily waved her hands, then recounted the matter involving Rong Wu and Moru.
Rong Ruo realized, “So that’s it, he should have made it clear to back then.”
“What do you an?”
“A long ti ago, he asked if he could refuse the marriage with Zi Qiaoqiao.”
“I advised him to agree to the marriage.”
“…It’s in the past. Ultimately, whatever you said, the choice was his to make. Although he let down his own love, he has lived up to everyone else.”
“Yes.”
“It shouldn’t be without basis, what’s the deal with the female of the Shark Clan?”
Rong Ruo was surprised, then his handso features showed a pleasantly extre smile, “Are you jealous?”
Sally pinched his waist hard, but his muscles were too firm, and she didn’t manage to pinch anything…
Rong Ruo quickly begged for rcy, “No, the only mate mark I have is given to you, there can’t be other females.”
“That’s true.” Sally glanced at him sideways, “If you dare to find other females behind my back, I’ll remove the mark.”
“No, absolutely not. The female of the Shark Clan ntioned in the rumors is the Shark Clan Leader’s daughter, who is pregnant with the child of the Young Clan Chief of the Sea Clan. It’s just that the Young Clan Chief has a fierce wife who forbids him from acknowledging the child, and now it’s causing quite a stir in the Sea Clan.”
…
Sally went with Rong Ruo to the Sea Emperor Capital City.
The first ti she ca here, all her vitality was consud in dealing with Rong Ruo entering his mating period, and she had no leisure to appreciate the scenery of the seabed.
This ti, Rong Ruo took her to travel leisurely around the sea, enjoying themselves.
Eventually, they arrived at a very impressive and majestic place, the Sea Goddess Empress Hall.
“What is this place? I don’t recall hearing about it the last ti I was here,” she said.
“It was built by Xiaoqi.”
“Huh? Xiaoqi?” Sally suddenly had an unpleasant premonition.
Indeed, upon entering the hall, they were greeted with a giant statue—the Sea Goddess Empress Statue!
It was unmistakably her own likeness!
Seeing her own statue, especially the honored title, Sally’s face flushed red with embarrassnt, and she dared not look up.
“This is too outrageous, I’m not even part of your Sea Clan.”
“By marrying , you are,” Rong Ruo said as he held her hand, comparing the statue with the real Sally, “But Yanyan is still more beautiful.”
Sally, with her face still red, scolded him playfully, “I was wondering why the Sea Clan looked at with such shock and honored with deep bows.”
“As they should,” Rong Ruo led her further into the hall, “When Xiaoqi was in the sea, she would constantly talk about you and wanted to find you.”
