Alright, now that the subjugating true spirit was not reviving and he was locked in this small room, the only thing he could do was to think.

Carefully recalling the words of the subjugating true spirit, could there be any hidden BOSSes here? Even the subjugating true spirit couldn't help but feel like it was trying to escape. Sigh, but since he had called me over, there shouldn't be any problems, right?

Just wait, I just hope that he will wake up soon so that we can kill his way out and teach those old bastards who still want to fight for the throne a lesson.

Eh?

Didn't they say that there was still a Queen in the Mermaid? Although the Mermaid King had become a living widow after his death, she was, after all, in charge of a million female troops.

However, Jia Luo and Jia Ren did not really know much about her situation. They only said that after the Mermaid King died, the queen had shut himself in the imperial harem and did not step out of the main door. He also pretended not see anything about Taichu Deyun and Tai Chuzhize's ambitions and silently lived his life in the imperial harem.

No matter if it was Taichu Deyun or her own brother, Tai Chuzhize, both of them had tried to rope her in before, but towards the two of them, they had never expressed their support for her husband's brother, nor did they say they were supporting their own brother. They only said that as a woman, they did not want to get involved in battles, and only wanted to live quietly for a few years.

But was that possible?

A nation should not be without a king, but a family should not be without a ruler for a single day.

It had been a long time since the Primitive Tribe had had a king. Everyone had their own factions and was fighting with each other, using up all of the tribe's strength. Most of the tribe's territories and resources had already been divided up by the other tribes, if this continued, the entire Primitive Tribe would change its name.

As the queen of a tribe, she was able to calm down and enjoy her life even under such circumstances. It was undeniable that even she herself did not have such a mindset, and it was unknown whether this calmness was due to the death of the mermaid king or because she had greater plans.

If the former was so good, then she wouldn't pose any threat to his plans. However, if it was the latter, then he would be an even harder opponent to deal with.

"Who is it?"

Du Lei clearly felt that someone was approaching him.

"Don't worry, I just want to ask you a few questions that won't hurt you."

The person was wearing a veil. It was obvious that she did not want others to know her identity.

"What do you want to know?"

"That infant you brought back really does have the bloodline of the Holy Maiden?"

"I think all of you should have a way to verify whether or not it's really the Saintess' bloodline. Moreover, she's already in your hands."

Du Lei said.

The person was clearly silent for a moment. It was unknown what he was thinking, but it was clear that this was not the answer she wanted.

"Who are you, then?"

the man asked again.

"Me? Hur Hur. Of course I'm here to escort your Holy Maiden back."

Before he figured out the other party's identity, Du Lei did not plan to reveal his identity to her.

"Hmph, stop trying to talk back. You know what I want to ask. Normal humans would not be able to come to such a deep seabed, and yet, they are still able to remain so calm in the face of all this."

"Da Da Da"

The sound of light footsteps came from afar. The person who had come was planning to ask something, but it was obvious that someone was coming. She had no choice but to quickly slip into the darkness.

Du Lei then sat down and closed his eyes and started to think.

"It seems you're still that confident. Although I don't know where that confidence came from, I have to say, I really admire your calmness."

The one who spoke was obviously a male. He did not conceal his characteristics.

"Because I believe that the Mermaid will recognize and support their Holy Maiden, and I also believe in myself."

Du Lei said indifferently without even opening his eyes.

"Hmph!"

Maybe Du Lei's actions made him feel like he was being looked down upon, making him feel very unhappy, but now was not the time to flare up.

"I heard you want to be a regent?"

The person took a deep breath and said.

"It's not that I want to do it, but your Mermaid needs a Regent. And the most suitable candidate is me, right?"

Du Lei opened his eyes, stood up, and looked at him.

De Yun, Taichu Deyun, Jia Luo and Jia Ren were his people, it was obvious that he had obtained something from their mouths.

You, a human, wanting to become the Regent of our Mermaid is simply a fantasy. Furthermore, to become a Regent requires strength, and speaking with strength is the most useful, you should be able to understand. With your intelligence, you are right?

Taichu Deyun said in a disdainful manner as he faced Du Lei who was walking towards him.

"You will know when the time comes if you have the strength. What, coming here now, is it to let me out?" Or have you already decided on how to work with me? "

"Brat, you have to think carefully before you speak after you see the situation. You're the one being held in prison and I can take your life at any time, do you understand?"

Taichu Deyun did not even put Du Lei in his eyes. In his eyes, Du Lei had already become a piece of fat meat on the chopping board, he could eat whatever he wanted, but he just wanted to see if he could extract more oil before eating.

This was also the reason why he had come here today.

"Kid, since you're so smart, why don't you give me some advice? I'll help the Holy Maiden sit on her throne, and let me sit on the position of the Regent. After I destroy that old thing Tai Chuzhize and become the king of the tribe, when that time comes, I'll bestow you with the title of our first aide."

Taichu Deyun revealed his true purpose for coming today.

Obviously, Taichu Deyun knew where his weakness was. He was scheming, and obviously, he couldn't win against Tai Chuzhize. Furthermore, both sides were evenly matched, it would be difficult for him to take down in a short period of time.

Right now, a great opportunity was right in front of him. A weak baby who was rumored to have Saintess' bloodline, for no reason, no relatives, no powers, if he stood out to help her up, she would definitely be acknowledged by the Holy Maiden. He would take this chance to increase his influence and suppress Tai Chuzhize.

He would deal with this Saint Daughter after he settled down in his seat. She wasn't a threat to him, so he could find a reason to pull her down from her position.

It had to be said that Taichu Deyun's idea was perfect, but he needed the cooperation of the human who found the Holy Maiden. However, Du Lei did not believe that he would bestow him the title of the number one comrade, even if he could use his clan's Holy Maiden, let alone a completely unrelated human.
