“This is the Chief of Taoyuan—Gaiyin, and this is the Saintess of Taoyuan—Su Tang.
It’s them who have provided us with a place to live, so we should be thankful!”
Hai Qin introduced excitedly with a full flare of enthusiasm to his clan people, to their lack of reciprocation.
They stared at him with dead fish eyes, expressionless on their faces, even seemingly confused.
One of the clansn asked, “Chief, why do we have to leave the sea where we were living just fine?
Didn’t you used to forbid us to interact with the beastn on land?”
Hai Qin explained calmly, “The rmaid Clan hasn’t given birth to a cub in ten large seasons.
The Sea Dragon Fish, which could potentially cure our Profound Cold Physique, has yet to be found.
Living in the sea will only worsen our condition.
To have cubs, we have to leave the sea.”
Clan mbers wore an enlightened expression, “So that’s why…
But can we live on land forever?”
Hai Qin continued, “The Saintess of Taoyuan has specifically prepared a suitable living place for us.
Don’t always stay in the water, walk around more, it’s good for the health.”
As this matter concerned their ability to have cubs, everyone was very invested and raised no objections.
Thus, Hai Qin paused before stating, “To have our cubs, there is another thod…”
The eyes of the rmaid Beastman females all brightened up.
They asked eagerly, “What’s the strategy?”
“Intermarrying with foreign species…”
As soon as these words were out, most of the rpeople showed strong resistance.
“How could this be!
I would never intermarry with a foreign species!”
“Exactly!
Neither would I!”
“So, is this the cost of living here?
If so, I’d rather not stay!”
“ neither!”
Hai Qin didn’t expect the situation to get so out of control and cast an awkward glance at Su Tang.
Not bothered, Su Tang looked forward to seeing them eat their own words.
She stepped forward cheerfully, “Everyone must be tired after the journey.
I’ve instructed our people to prepare so food.
Let’s go inside and have a rest, shall we?”
A rmaid Beastman stepped forward righteously.
His eyes were haughty, “Do you think you can buy us with food?
You’re too naive!”
Another Beastman stepped forward, “Even if I, Silver Fish, starve to death, I would never eat anything you provide!”
Hai Qin frowned in dissatisfaction and reprimanded, “Silver Fish, White Fish, how could you be so impolite?!
Apologize to the Saintess right now!”
White Fish and Silver Fish remained arrogantly unconcerned, not believing they did anything wrong.
Just as Hai Qin was about to lose his temper, Gaiyin stopped him.
“Uncle, we don’t need insincere apologies.” He then turned and addressed the rmaid Beastn, “Not anyone can join Taoyuan just because they want to.
I only allowed you to stay temporarily out of respect for my uncle.
As for intermarriage, our Taoyuan people might not even find you worthy.
So, you don’t need to worry so much.
If you don’t want to stay, we won’t force you.
Feel free to leave now!”
Upon finishing, Gaiyin left with Su Tang without even giving the rmaid Beastn a second glance.
Hai Qin shook his head helplessly, gestured at his people, and started to say sothing but stopped.
Shaking his head, he called out to Gaiyin who was ahead.
“Cub, wait up for , don’t be mad.
My people are ignorant and foolish, don’t lower yourself to their level…”
