Chapter 441: The Female Merfolk Is Back

Without the ape king’s mental power, Parker broke through the barrier very quickly.

Parker’s tanned skin was full of whipped, bloody wounds. Without any regard for his own injuries, he crouched low like a wild animal and curled his tail up high, sniffing vigorously on the ground, before transforming into his beast form and giving chase.

Alva let out a cry of surprise. “You’re still chasing?”

Ignoring him, Parker ran far away in no time.

But very quickly, he lost track of his target—the ape king’s footprints had disappeared.

Parker angrily puffed out and said to him, “Help me find them.”

Alva shook his wings, feeling bouts of pain from the wing being restrained.

Fear of the unknown was the most terrifying. As he didn’t have any understanding of it, Alva didn’t have the guts to go.

“Even if you go, you won’t be able to defeat him. You’ll only be sacrificing yourself in vain. I’m not going,” said Alva as he transformed into a human, sounding justified.

Parker transformed into a leopard once more. He figured he couldn’t go wrong if he searched in the direction of the sea.

…

Using all his might to speed up, the ape king reached the seaside very quickly.

The instant Jean landed on the ground, she started running towards the sea. Even though the sand underneath her feet was still scorching hot, this time she didn’t utter a single sound as she ran towards the sea. Taking a deep breath, she called out as she soaked in the seawater, “I’m back—”

Her voice had the same quality as merfolk, causing sound waves to travel a great distance in the sea.

In the nursery, King was floating quietly as the sound slowly entered his ears. All of a sudden, his pupils expanded visibly.

Jean!

Ripples vibrated in the water, and in an instant, the merman had disappeared from the nursery.

All the members of the merfolk tribe were stunned.

I’m back?

Who’s back? The female?

But the female is in the nest, yet the sound waves are coming from the seaside.

But there was no mistake about it—such unique sound waves definitely came from merfolk.

The merfolk were just about to ask their leader when King coincidentally swam out.

“Follow me…” King said. Then, his voice suddenly halted as he thought of Bai Qingqing.

He was just about to withdraw his previous remark when a horrified cry came from the nest.

“The female is gone!”

The merman guarding the nest had, after hearing the sound on the shore, went to check on the nest out of worry, when he realized that Bai Qingqing was gone. Hence his alarmed cry.

The group of merfolk instantly got into a frenzy.

King had no means of controlling the situation as the fishes swam towards the coast in unison.

King’s brows furrowed, and he sped up as he swam ahead.

Jean quietly waited as she stood in the shallow part of the sea, failing to detect the sadness of the ape king standing behind her.

Parker ran to the seaside. The instant he caught sight of Jean, he dashed towards her.

The ape king kept away his grief and prepared to battle.

Just then, several heads bubbled above the sea surface. The elated Jean leaped into the arms of the first golden-haired merman that came to her side.

Parker’s eyes widened, and he turned around and started sprinting.

The ape king was speechless.

Jean scoffed and raised her injured arm for King to see. “That leopard wants to kill me. Look! Hurry up and kill him for me.”

The mermen froze momentarily at the sight of this unfamiliar-looking face, and no one quite noticed what she had just said.

King stared fixedly at Jean, his countenance frozen except for the maniac expression that became more intense in his eyes.

Without even casting a look at the shore, King waved a hand and said, “Let’s go.”

Although the mermen didn’t understand, they followed their leader’s instructions nonetheless, transforming into a human and heading to the shore.

“Let’s go back.”

“Mm.”

King personally blew a bubble. Different from the ones Bluepool blew, his bubble was of a light golden shade that glistened under the sunlight. Although it was just a thin membrane, it looked extremely sturdy.

Jean squirmed into it. After descending into the sea, it then struck her that she had forgotten to take one last look at the ape king.

Forget it. In any case, I won’t get to see him again.

To repay the ape king’s selfless act of sending her back to the sea, she intended to keep his spousal mark forever.
