Chapter 791: From Now On, Blue Sea City Belongs to Ling
As Ling Zhan's cold words fell.
The Merman Emperor's face turned even darker.
The other strong warriors of the deep-sea clan were furious and wanted to rebuke him.
But under the chilling gaze of this young man, their words stuck in their throats and had to be swallowed.
His aura was overpowering!
But most importantly, it was because the Merman Emperor had been beaten so miserably earlier!
Someone who could nearly kill a level-190 Merman Emperor—who would dare ignore his words?
"Five!"
"Four!"
Ling Zhan had already started the countdown with a blank expression.
The many professionals behind him were trembling with excitement.
This was satisfying!
So damn satisfying!
Seeing the deep-sea clan members with their panicked faces made everyone feel a sense of justice.
"Three!"
"Two!"
At this critical moment.
The Merman Emperor said nothing more and simply turned around to leave.
The deep-sea clan members quickly followed their emperor in a rush.
Mi Howard was about to follow as well.
But the Grand Turtle Steward blocked his way, slightly bowing and saying in a low voice, "Your Highness, the Sixth Prince, you cannot leave just yet..."
"You..." Mi Howard's eyes widened, and he was about to speak.
But what he saw were the cold eyes of the Grand Turtle Steward.
At that moment.
Mi Howard instantly understood his father's decision.
His heart sank further into despair.
He could only stand there dejectedly.
Seeing that Mi Howard was sensible and no longer resisted, the Grand Turtle Steward silently turned to leave.
"Wait!"
But just then, Ling Zhan's indifferent voice rang out again.
To the deep-sea clan's ears, it was as if their hearts had skipped another beat!
This guy...
What was he planning now?
Even the Merman Emperor had to turn back with a grim expression, his face filled with murderous intent as he glared at Ling Zhan.
The sealing status was still active.
Of course...
Even if it weren't, the Merman Emperor would no longer dare to confront Ling Zhan so easily.
It was too strange!
Before being sealed, he hadn't even detected any signs and had already fallen into the trap.
He feared that if they fought again, he would be trapped once more!
How would he fight then?
"That old turtle—I've been annoyed with him for a while now."
"Your Majesty Ambrose, I've changed my mind. Now, I'll give you a choice."
"Your son or the old turtle—which one do you want to live?"
Ling Zhan's voice remained calm and composed.
But the condition he proposed became even more unreasonable.
"Ling Zhan!! You're going too far!"
Before the Merman Emperor could respond, the Grand Turtle Steward had already cracked.
His expression shifted into panic!
Mainly because the Merman Emperor's attributes still hadn't recovered!
Ling Zhan glanced at him and said indifferently, "Are you even human?"
"You!!"
The Grand Turtle Steward's face turned red, but he didn't dare to speak further and instead turned his pleading gaze toward the Merman Emperor.
However, the Merman Emperor took a deep breath and didn't even glance at him.
He squinted and gave Ling Zhan a deep look. In the end...
"Mi Howard, let's go."
With that.
The Merman Emperor turned and left without hesitation.
Mi Howard's eyes lit up with joy, and he quickly scrambled to follow!
He no longer dared to utter any mocking words toward Ling Zhan!
He was genuinely afraid!
His only thought now was to escape as quickly as possible!
To the Merman Emperor, his son was naturally more important than a servant.
Even if that servant was a level-180 powerhouse.
It didn't matter—another one could be trained.
Besides...
The Grand Turtle Steward was getting old.
His talent was mediocre.
He had relied on the long lifespan of the spirit turtle clan to reach his current level.
The spirit turtle clan could live for at least a thousand years without consuming any rare treasures or using any magic-tech potions.
The Grand Turtle Steward was already three thousand years old.
He had likely reached the peak of what he could achieve at level 180.
It was time to let go.
At the very least, his son, who was currently at level 155, had the Merman Emperor's bloodline. With proper training, reaching level 180 wouldn't be difficult.
The Merman Emperor and his people quickly left Blue Sea City.
After leaving the city.
The sealing status on the Merman Emperor was finally lifted!
Boom!!
As soon as his status was restored, an overwhelming power erupted from his body, causing the heavens and earth to tremble!
The feeling of regaining his peak strength made the Merman Emperor's expression ease a bit.
"Father! Should we go back and kill him?"
Seeing his father's strength return, Mi Howard immediately suggested revenge.
"Your Majesty, we're ready to die if you give the order!"
One of the generals shouted passionately.
The ridicule they had endured earlier had left them seething.
Now that their emperor had recovered, they were eager to settle the score.
But the Merman Emperor just glanced at them and said, "And what if I get sealed again? What then?"
"This..."
The generals hesitated.
"That kid isn't simple."
"If he could use that strange method to suppress me, he could do the same to any other level-190 powerhouse."
"Moreover..."
"The fact that he let me leave without any concern proves he still has backup plans."
"Let's investigate him thoroughly first."
"We'll have plenty of opportunities to settle this later."
The Merman Emperor spoke calmly.
The generals exchanged glances and nodded.
Sigh!
They had thought that under the Merman Emperor's leadership, they could at least intimidate Ling Zhan.
But not only did they fail, they had nearly been wiped out.
Indeed...
News of this would soon spread across the Sacred Continent.
The Merman Emperor's reputation was bound to take a hit.
......
Inside Blue Sea City, at the entrance of the dungeon hall.
The Grand Turtle Steward already knew he had been abandoned.
But there was no way he'd just stay and die quietly.
His plan was simple—escape.
However, Ling Zhan wasn't going to let that happen.
He had been annoyed with the old turtle for a long time.
But this time, Ling Zhan wasn't going to take action himself.
Instead, he turned to the land-based professionals and said calmly, "Don't you all hate the deep-sea clan to the core?"
"Now, I'm giving you the opportunity!"
"Go, kill this old thing!"
Boom!!
As Ling Zhan's words fell.
The land-based professionals couldn't hold back anymore and charged at the Grand Turtle Steward!
Though they were only around level 130 to 150.
Their sheer numbers were overwhelming!
Plus, there were plenty of support classes.
The Grand Turtle Steward was a fragile mage, and in this confined space, kiting wasn't an option.
With Dragon Kingdom's representative Liu Chuan and the other international representatives overseeing the scene...
There was no way anything unexpected would happen.
Thus, the Grand Turtle Steward met his end.
From this moment, Blue Sea City no longer belonged to the Titch family—it belonged to Ling.
