Nine Revolutions Star Transformation

Chapter 346: Chapter 355: Mermaid Princess

Yuwen Qingkong receiving the embroidery ball and becoming the Prince Consort is something no one expected, and as things have already come to a conclusion, everyone could only leave disappointed.

Although many are quite unwilling, no one dares to provoke him, as provoking him means provoking the Mermaid Princess, which would certainly result in a citywide chase situation.

Chu Linfeng and Lin Feng came out afterward and saw Meng Ji and the other three waiting for them.

Chu Linyue immediately came forward and asked, ”Lin Feng, did you succeed? I knew you could do it!”

Chu Linfeng smiled and said, ”You’re too clever, but that phrase seems to say ’big boobs, no brains.’ Unfortunately, your brother wasn’t chosen, but your sweetheart managed to win the beauty.”

As soon as these words came out, the three of them were shocked. No one expected Yuwen Qingkong to become the Prince Consort, especially Chu Linyue, whose face was filled with disbelief as she looked at Yuwen Qingkong, hoping he could give her an explanation.

PS: I’ve been too busy these past few days, updates are weak, but I’m almost finished with the busy stuff. Hope readers understand!

Seeing Chu Linyue’s expression, Yuwen Qingkong felt a bit guilty but didn’t know how to explain it, especially since they had just developed a good impression of each other and such a thing happened, which anyone would find hard to accept.

”Linyue, don’t doubt it. Qingkong didn’t have a choice. Originally, I got the embroidery ball, but it had a strong attack power, so I couldn’t hold on to it and tossed it to my brother. Who knew it wouldn’t harm him? Maybe it was meant to be that he would have this union with the Mermaid Princess,” Chu Linfeng said.

”I’m not mad, what are you explaining for? Whoever he wants to marry is none of my business,” Chu Linyue immediately denied.

”Now that things have come to this, let’s have a drink to celebrate this hard-earned joy, otherwise it would seem disrespectful.” Chu Linfeng laughed.

”I won’t be going. Many people in the Imperial Palace know me. For the Sect Leader’s identity, I’ll wait for you at the residence. Whether the Golden Scale Treasure Robe can be obtained depends on you.” He Juan said.

Afterward, Chu Linfeng and the other three entered the Mermaid Country’s Imperial Palace, while He Juan left alone.

Chu Linfeng entered the palace without any hindrance and saw many people of the Human Race. The palace was already adorned with lanterns and decorations, and the atmosphere was full of joy.

Soon, someone led Chu Linfeng and his group to a magnificent hall, where a Mermaid Race palace maid said to Yuwen Qingkong, ”Prince Consort, please follow me to change clothes, the Princess is ready, and the wedding will begin soon.”

Chu Linfeng looked at this palace maid, who was quite attractive, without the fish-like fins typical of the Mermaid Race around her ears, but with one or two small scales at the corner of her eyes, making her look quite lovely.

Yuwen Qingkong somewhat embarrassedly said to Chu Linfeng and the others, ”Wait here for me, I’ll be right back!” and then followed the maid out of the hall.

”Lin Feng, why does the Mermaid Princess choose this kind of way to find a husband? Does she have some purpose?” Chu Linyue asked.

”Do you think I don’t know your mind? Remember who he is, having multiple wives is normal; even I have the same thoughts, let alone him. Don’t get jealous so easily, or she’ll dislike you for it.

Don’t blame me for not reminding you, if he doesn’t want you, don’t cry in front of me because I won’t help you!” Chu Linfeng said.

”If he dares to treat me like that, I’ll castrate him so he can never touch a woman again. Do you think Chu Linyue is that easy to bully?” Chu Linyue said angrily.

These words stunned both Chu Linfeng and Meng Ji, as they didn’t expect such a fierce response from her; Yuwen Qingkong could be in for some trouble if he doesn’t treat her well.

At this moment, several lavishly dressed people entered from outside, among them someone Chu Linfeng recognized as the Mermaid Country’s Sovereign, wearing what he desired.

Additionally, a noble-looking woman, though middle-aged, showed no sign of aging, looking like a woman in her thirties, and she had no visible Mermaid Race features.

”Greetings, Sovereign and Queen!” Chu Linfeng and the three immediately greeted these two.

”No need for such formalities, you are friends of the Prince Consort, thus honorary guests of our Mermaid Country, and your presence here today shows our great affinity,” said the Mermaid Sovereign.

”Qian’er chose the embroidery ball method to find a husband out of desperation. Everyone knows Qian’er is the most beautiful and powerful woman in the Mermaid Country, but unaware of the immense pain she suffers,” explained the Mermaid Princess’s mother, the Queen.

The three of them looked at the Queen, hoping for a more detailed explanation.

The Mermaid Queen continued, ”It’s not exactly a secret, many nobles know that Qian’er has suffered from a strange illness since childhood, which flares up on the full moon, causing unbearable pain.

On full moon nights, her body grows scales, and she undergoes an enormous transformation, especially where her legs fuse into a fish tail.

That process is extremely painful; although we are called the Mermaid Race, we are not true fish, we only possess some fish traits, hence the name.”

Such a story seemed fantastic, yet Chu Linfeng wasn’t too surprised, as he had experienced even stranger things, like the Sword Spirit Yue’er.

But Chu Linyue reacted differently, very agitated by the news: ”Queen, what does this illness have to do with marrying a Prince Consort?”

The Mermaid Sovereign looked at everyone and said, ”It’s indeed related. The only way to cure Qian’er is to be with someone who can resist the Spiritual Mysterious Stone. Once Qian’er turns twenty, through the yin-yang connection, the poison can gradually be resolved.

This is not a disease but an Ultimate Yin Poison, which through yin-yang union, can slowly be discharged.

However, to completely rid the poison at once is impossible, it must be done gradually to minimize harm to the Prince Consort, and if the constitution isn’t strong enough, it could be life-threatening.”

Upon hearing this, Chu Linfeng felt something was off and said immediately, ”Aren’t you endangering the Prince Consort with this arrangement, playing with someone’s life?”

”That’s exactly why the Queen and I are here to explain, so there’s no misunderstanding if anything happens to your friend. Our Mermaid Country values hospitality and doesn’t want discontent over such matters,” the Mermaid Sovereign said.

”No, we can’t let Brother take the risk. Sovereign, the embroidery ball actually came to me, but I couldn’t marry the Princess due to my reasons, so I passed it to my brother,” Chu Linfeng immediately said.

”Young man, you finally admit it. Actually, I knew when you got the embroidery ball, but I’m curious why your friend is unharmed—did you seal the energy of the Spiritual Mysterious Stone?” the Mermaid Sovereign asked.

Meng Ji and Chu Linyue were puzzled, not expecting such developments...
