After being together for so long, this was the first time Jiangyang saw this merman cry. He looked so haggard and frail, and she felt sorry for him. The tears that he shed transformed into pearls are exceptional in colour and lustre, surpassing even the finest seawater pearls in great condition.

Although the merman appeared miserable in distress, Jiang Yang's gaze was fixed on the falling pearl. If he picked it up and sold it, she could make a lot of money, correct? Perhaps it can be served as the price of crime.

Let him cry a little longer?

Jiang Yang shook her head, forget it, he saved her after all, so she shouldn't be too ruthless.

She patted the merman who was crying so hard that he wanted to cry out all the grievances he suffered for decades: "Stop crying, I have no intention of leaving, I just can't see you, so I went out to find something to eat.

In fact, the sea surrounds this island. No one will come to her rescue, no matter how loudly she screams. Run? A large wave will simply hit her, and she will die.

Chi Mei stopped crying after hearing Jiang Yang's own words indicating that she would not leave, but he continued to sob silently. There was still a faint glimmer of water in his eyes, and his long, tear-filled eyelashes quiver slightly. His voice sounded hoarse, as though something was wrong. Something was scratching at his heart: "I went out to find food for you."

As he said that, he threw two bright red goldfish from the water. The two fish were swaying and flapping around. Jiang Yang decisively raised the coconut crab and knocked the two fish unconscious with its hard shell.

"Great, I'm worried that what I got back won't be enough for the two of us." Jiang Yang sat cross-legged on the raised rock, cleaning the scales and internal organs of the golden fish, and went outside to break off two branches. skewered the two fish and place over the fire to make it grilled.

After transmigrating so many years, this is the first time Jiang Yang has done it by herself. Although it is a bit unfamiliar and clumsy, it still feels a little novel.

The fire was burning wildly, and Jiangyang squatted aside, waiting for the meal to be cooked.

Jiangyang didn't know when Chi Mei had crawled back to the rock where he had been lying down before. She didn't know if it was because the light in the tree hole was too dark, but she felt that the merman's face seemed even paler.

Three-quarters of his body was submerged in the water, and only the upper part of his chest was lying on the rocks. His eyes were closed, red and swollen from crying. He seemed to be tired and sleepy. his tail sank weakly into the water.

When he was still trapped in the bucket on the boat, his tail fin was like an electric motor, like it couldn't wait to stop for a moment. But now, it was suddenly hung calmly in the water. Jiang Yang suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

The golden fish and coconut crab were grilled, as well as a smashed coconut. It was two dishes and one soup.

Jiangyang took a portion of each and placed it on the rock where the merman was lying.

When the merman heard the noise, he raised his eyelids to look at her sadly, hid tone was weak as if she had just woken up: "...A Yang?"

"Yeah." Jiang Yang answered: "You used to be so lively and energetic. It's so big. It only takes a short time to recover after such a big penis penetrates your fish tail. Why are you so listless after regaining your freedom?"

"Yes." Jiang Yang replied, "Before, you were so lively and full of energy. Why are you so lifeless after gaining your freedom?"

Chi Mei's eyes changed slightly, he hesitated, and said, "Of course, I'm so happy to be back in the sea and to
swim around just like before, I'm simply lying down for a moment because I'm tired."

The light in the tree hole was weak, but the water's light and shadow shone brightly, and his eyes appeared to be unreal.

Jiang Yang didn't think too much and pushed the food in front of him: "Don't play too much and eat."

"I'm a little tired right now and don't want to eat; you can eat first," the Merman replied softly, still laying on the rock as if there was some special attraction to it.

Jiang Yang raised her eyebrows: "You don't want to eat? Okay, I'll eat it myself." After saying that, Jiang Yang picked up the fish and thh crab then prepared to leave.

"You -" the merman's frail voice was full of disbelief and slight anger, and he yanked at her skirt: "I found this fish...how could you not give it to me? Are you trying to starve me to death?"

Jiang Yang shrugged, "You said you didn't want to eat."

"Who said I don't want to eat? I will eat right now." The merman became energetic and stopped being lethargic. He lay down on the rock, grabbed a fish and a crab from her hand, and ate them together in large mouthfuls.

Jiangyang chuckled and returned to her rock to eat.

The merman felt resentful. While nibbling on the fish, he raised his straight brows and glared at her with contempt. He was irritated and muttered furiously in his heart: "Bad woman....I saved you, and you didn't even want to feed me."

Chi Mei ate awkwardly, and the intense pain from wound on his tail fin had ruined his sense of taste, preventing him from tasting the food at all. Because he had just seized the food from Jiangyang's hand, the wound on his tail fin was open up. The ripped wound caused a dull pain. He clenched his teeth and didn't cry out.

The merfolk's weapon is the tail fin, which is also the most fragile and sensitive portion of their body. The discomfort from a minor wound will be exacerbated in the tail fin.

But fortunately, the merfolks core in the merfolk's body have powerful healing capabilities, which can not only weaken the pain caused by the wound, but also greatly increase the healing speed of the wound. This is why he was able to have full energy to move when he was shot through in tail fin by a spear on the seafaring ship.

Without the merfolk core, the pain from the injury would be agonising and the healing process would become incredibly slow.

Compared to the merpeople's tears, which humans are eager to pursue, the merpeople's core is what they care about the most and consider to be their life.

Of course, humans understand that the merpeople's core is a good thing. In recent years, they've hunted and killed merfolks for a number of reasons, the least of which being to refine as fish oil and the ultimate goal is the merpeople's core.

When someone possesses the merfolk's core, they can not only bring the dying person back to life, but also prolong their lives.

However, in order to obtain the core, the merfolks must be willing to do so, which means even the most noble emperor of the human race can only see it in her dreams; possibly she has never seen the merfolks' core in her life.

Chi Mei endured his discomfort and pretended nothing happened. In fact, the tremendous pain had caused his forehead to break out in cold sweat. He stared at Jiang Yang, who was eating fish and staring at the water in a stupor, unsure what she was thinking.

The pain was so excruciating that he nearly convulsed, and a dull, secret happiness flooded his mind. It was fortunate that she was still alive.

That night, the elders of the mertribe used the forbidden technique of killing a thousand enemies and damaging eight hundred that summoned a stormy waves. The entire boat was swept into the deep sea. The resentment that the tribesmen had endured over the years finally broke out, they dragged all the crew members who fell into the water one by one for revenge

When Chi Mei escaped from the sinking boat, there were only a few people still alive in the water.

His heart trembled as he looked for everywhere in fright and helplessness. He eventually finds Jiang Yang, who has been dragged into the deep sea by a tribe member. Her eyes were tightly closed, her body seemed heavy and weak, and she didn't seems to be breathing.

He seemed to have been smacked hard by someone, his mind was confused, and he felt instantly frozen. When he returned to his senses, he was already fighting frantically with the tribesmen. Ignoring the elders' urging and obstruction on his left and right, he fled from the tribesmen while holding Jiang Yang, who was no longer breathing.
