Chapter 1068 The Fate of the Merman
After Xuan Yun saluted, he looked at Zhou Shu with a smile on his lips, seemingly satisfied.
The same is true for Zhou Shu, although he doesn't know what Xuan Yun wants him to help, but it will never be more difficult than what they have to do.
Huiyue Palace, the territory of the Sea Clan, is facing a group of Sea Clan who are extremely unfriendly to humans, and there are many strong people among them. It is a bit whimsical to ask or find news about Zhao Yueru here, but it is different with Xuan Yun's help. Yun is the young master of Liuyun Palace, with a high status, and he is also a member of the Hai clan, so it would be best for him to help find it.
Xuan Yun spoke first, "I don't know what you are doing?"
"Find someone for us."
Zhou Shu showed a bit of dignity, and said slowly, "About 60 years ago, a female monk in the sect also came here through the same method. I want to know her whereabouts and find her back."
As he spoke, he took out a jade slip and handed it over, "Here's the details, you'll know as soon as you see it."
In the jade slips, there is a phantom image of Zhao Yueru drawn by him with his divine sense, which is lifelike.
"Sixty years ago?"
Xuan Yun took the jade slip and looked at it for a while, then nodded seriously, "Okay, Zhou Shu, I will send someone to look for it now, and I will also notify the Palace Master of Huiyue Palace to help search, I believe there will be news soon."
The matter has settled for the time being, Zhou Shu nodded reassuringly, turned to Xuan Yun and said, "Xuan Yun, your trouble is because of Princess Jiao, right?"
"good……"
Xuan Yun sighed, and said something with some seriousness.
Most of the mermaids are intelligent, born in shape, and good at using star power, but they are extremely peaceful and not good at fighting. Therefore, the status of the merman in the sea clan is very low, although not as low as the hydro fish, but not much better.
In the past era, the peace-loving, weak and submissive sharks had a miserable life in the sea. Not only the immortal cultivators would kill the sharks to get their oil, tears, etc., even many sea people would also They killed each other and captured the mermen. Later, Liuyun Palace came forward and brought the mermen into the power of Liuyun Palace. Wait, the most beautiful and noble woman in the merman clan, the merman saint, will also be sent to Liuyun Palace as a princess.
The same is true for this generation of saintesses.
Compared with the past, although the mermaid clan is much more peaceful now, they have almost completely lost their freedom. They are like slaves of Liuyun Palace. To punish the merman clan, for tens of thousands of years, countless merman died because of Liuyun Palace.
Jiao Ling sees this very clearly, and she is very unwilling to continue. During her time as a saint, she decided to change this situation, and wanted to elevate the status of the mermaid clan, and no longer be a slave to others , and will not be killed by other sea people.
To this end, she did many things.
To be independent, the first thing is self-improvement. She has collected many formulas and gave them to practice for the Merman Clan. There are also countless weapons and even magic weapons, which are handed over to the clan. Have enough self-preservation power.
Befriend other sea tribes. When she was a saint, she traveled almost half of the East China Sea. As long as she was a sea tribe, she tried to persuade them to establish a good mutual aid relationship with the shark tribe.
In Liuyun Palace, she set an example and tried her best to change the submissive image of mermaids, so that people in the palace had a different feeling towards mermaids.
Each of these things is extremely difficult, but she has been persisting without any slack.
For this reason, she has won a lot of respect, not only from the mermaid clan, but also from other sea clans. In the East China Sea, almost everyone knows the name of the saint.
Of course, to change the long-term destiny, the resistance is also extremely large, and the biggest resistance is Palace Master Liuyun.
As the concubine of the Holy Queen, Jiao Ling has enough charm to change the inherent views of many sea clans towards mermaids, but she cannot change Liuyun Palace Master Xuan An. For Xuan An, his idea is very simple. Will always be a slave of Liuyun Palace.
This is absolutely unacceptable to Jiao Ling.
She had quarreled with Xuan'an many times and paid a lot of price for it, but for the sake of her own race, she would never compromise. Xuan'an actually hated Jiaoling very much and disrespected him repeatedly, but now she is not good at treating her anymore How, in the East China Sea, the reputation of the Merman Saintess is already great, even surpassing Xuan'an herself. If Xuan'an rashly attacks Jiao Ling, it will only arouse the public indignation of the Hai Clan, and the control power of Liuyun Palace will be greatly reduced. Weakening, lowering status, and making the other Sangongs cheaper, this is unacceptable to Xuan'an.
Thirty years ago, after an unbearable quarrel, Jiao Ling left Liuyun Palace angrily.
This was actually Xuan'an's intention. Jiao Ling who left Liuyun Palace temporarily lost her status as a saint, and in the open sea, he could also send someone to attack her secretly, but he didn't expect that Jiao Ling along the way No matter where Ling went, many Sea Clans took the initiative to protect him, so that his idea could not succeed, but it was also an accident, but Jiao Ling was caught by monks from Paradise Island in the Black Sea.
Later Princess Jiao was rescued by Zhou Shu, and after leaving Paradise Island, she returned to the deep sea with Xuan Yun.
But at this time, many of her clansmen had already been imprisoned by Liuyun Palace Master Xuan'an on the charge of driving the saint to escape from Liuyun Palace, an unforgivable crime.
At this time, Jiao Ling appeared in Liuyun Palace, taking her body as a substitute, willing to bear all the crimes with all her strength, Xuan'an was very happy, and wanted to punish Jiao Ling immediately, but many elders in the palace interceded for him, especially Xuan Yun, even forcing him to die, would inevitably lose the hearts of the Hai Clan. Xuan'an could only be punished lightly and let the Merman Clan go, but Jiao Ling was put under house arrest and could not leave Liuyun Palace for the rest of his life.
Without being able to leave Liuyun Palace, Jiao Ling would no longer be able to lead the mermen, and would no longer be able to fight for the status of the mermen. For Xuan'an, it was a good result.
Without this biggest trouble, Xuan'an has been very leisurely for a while, retreating and concentrating on cultivation, ignoring worldly affairs.
But gradually, he suddenly realized that the result was wrong.
Although Jiao Ling does not leave the palace, she keeps in touch with the outside world, and continues to expand her influence and elevate the status of the mermaids through the people in the palace. Resources such as Ye Mingzhu are less and less than before...
Xuan'an was very angry, and immediately sent people to investigate who they were, but they couldn't find out who they were, and he suddenly discovered that his sons and courtiers who were close to him either disappeared or lost power and lived in seclusion, while those in the palace who could hold real power Except for those disobedient veterans, there seems to be only one Xuan Yun left, and Xuan Yun is his son who he liked the most but now hates the most.
He who was obsessed with cultivation only now knew what Xuan Yun had done all these years.
