Chapter 2068 Painful, Bottom Line
Gong Xi's cold voice was full of deep pain.
In his heart, he always felt that he, the king of the sea clan, did not do a good job, so that his clansmen were slaughtered.
Now he has expended so much energy to save some of the clansmen and let them live well for the time being.
But if they are not sent back to live in the sea for a long time, they will also disappear.
These are his responsibilities as the king.
And because of the incident in ancient times, he also felt guilty.
If it weren't for him, his people might not have been killed.
So the hatred and enmity in Gongxi Leng's heart was too deep.
It took a lot of self-control and concentration for him to resist killing Qiao Liuhua.
Only Qiao Liuhua's blood is needed to break the taboo on the Hai Lingzhu, and he can use the Hai Lingzhu to send all his clansmen back to the sea.
They can go back to living as before.
This was the first thing he had to do after he came back to life as the king of the sea clan.
This is also his responsibility.
He looked for Qiao Wan'er for a long time, just to get back Hai Lingzhu.
But the lifespan of human beings is at most a hundred years. Once a hundred years pass, most people will die.
The ancient era is too long away from this era, and Qiao Wan'er is long gone.
Although Qiao Wan'er was no longer around, the patriarch of the ghost clan kept Qiao Wan'er's blood.
But that's a man, man's blood doesn't work, only Qiao Liuhua's blood can truly unlock the power of Hai Lingzhu.
After all, the power of Hai Lingzhu was taken away by Qiao Wan'er at the beginning, and it was tabooed.
But he has been close to Qiao Liuhua for so long, but he has not found out the whereabouts of Hai Lingzhu from her mouth.
Later, Yang Yinsi's father intentionally wooed him, so he followed suit. If he seized the ghost clan, he might be able to find Hai Lingzhu as soon as possible.
His people couldn't wait too long.
After all, they are members of the Sea Clan, and they need to live in the sea most of the time.
Moreover, human beings are greedy and easy to kill. He worried that if the clansmen were discovered, they would be exterminated again.
So he must hurry up.
He just didn't expect Qiao Liuhua to come back after fleeing and bring back Hai Lingzhu.
Although he wondered why the Hai Lingzhu was in the palace of the ancient country, but since he got the Hai Lingzhu back, his clansmen would be able to return to the sea soon, and they could save their lives and live a good life.
He waited patiently for the blood to lift the taboo and unlock the power of Hai Lingzhu.
But they don't know that what is needed is not blood, but the blood of his union with Qiao Liuhua, so there is only one way...
Gong Xileng is not angry, she is challenging his bottom line.
But for the sake of his people, he had to compromise.
This is his duty as king.
He couldn't let his people disappear again.
Gong Xilen held Qiao Liuhua's wrist firmly with one hand, and put the other on her neck.
His eyes are painful, because of his clansmen.
Qiao Liuhua looked at Gong Xi's cold and red eyes, through his eyes, she seemed to be able to see the pain and helplessness in his heart.
She thought of those scenes in ancient times, and thought of the extermination of the Hai clan, and her heart couldn't help feeling sad for Gong Xileng.
Even if he wanted to kill her, even if she really saw the killing intent in his eyes, she would feel sorry for him.
Because he bears the lives and missions of his people!
Qiao Liuhua didn't understand why Qiao Wan'er was willing to hurt Gong Xileng.
Such a man, he once had love and responsibility in his heart, how could she be willing to hurt him!
