Gui You and Su Xiaolu were both adapting. The feeling in the sea and on land was different, but without the discomfort of their bodies as an obstacle, the master and disciple quickly balanced out the slight discomfort.
They no longer tested their moves. They pulled out their swords and collided.
The figures could only be seen as afterimages and could not be distinguished. There was only the sound of swords colliding, but no sword could be seen.
Jin Liu and the others came to watch.
They all exclaimed, “Miss Su’s sword technique is even better now. I’m afraid even if we fight together, we won’t be able to defeat her.”
Everyone agreed.
Mu Yi and the others beside Zhou Heng also nodded slightly.
“Miss Su’s understanding is very good. I heard that when she practiced the sword in the past, she would practice until she couldn’t get up. It’s admirable.”
Mu Yi looked at Su Xiaolu in admiration. Su Xiaolu was the epitome of martial arts obsession.
They all knew that Su Xiaolu was only half a disciple of Gui You. Gui You’s real disciple was Su Chong.
But now that they saw Su Xiaolu and Gui You practicing their swordsmanship, they both felt that this was more like a master and disciple. The master was a martial arts maniac, and so was his disciple.
The fish people at the side reached out and clapped, emitting some sound waves.
“They’re really amazing. Can we learn these when we go to the human race?”
Jin Liu and the others didn’t understand, but seeing that the fish people didn’t have any ill intentions, they treated them as being shocked and praised them, so they only smiled and nodded. Of course, they were not bad. In their Zhou Dynasty, there were many such strong people.
Seeing Jin Liu and the others nod, the fish people thought that they understood and smiled. “That’s great. We will definitely learn seriously.”
Jin Liu and the others also smiled happily.
It didn’t matter if they didn’t understand. A smile was a friendly exchange.
Su Xiaolu and Gui You put away their swords. The master and disciple were satisfied.
Gui You smiled and said, “Girl, after this is over, I’ll write a letter to let your brother set up his own sect. You’ll officially become my disciple. From now on, you’re my only personal disciple.”
Su Xiaolu’s eyes were filled with an obsession with sword techniques, making him want to cheer for her.
Her talent was not as good as her brother’s, but she was even more obsessed with martial arts than him. In a few years, Su Xiaolu would definitely surpass Su Chong.
Su Xiaolu grinned. “Okay, thank you, Master Gui You.”
Soon, she would not be half a disciple.
However, thinking of her brother, Su Xiaolu felt a little guilty. A little, but not much.
The master and disciple went back together.
The fish people were very friendly and kept sending sound waves at them.
“You’re really amazing. Can we have this sword in our race?”
“There must be. Every one of them has a sword.”
“But these two look even better. Can we be like them?”
“I don’t know. I’ll ask when the time comes—”
Su Xiaolu and the others did not understand and could only maintain a polite smile in response.
The fish people were even happier to see them smile.
In the next few days, the fish people brought them to tour the palace and the sea area.
The old king asked An Xiaoou to translate for them.
An Xiaoou smiled and said, “In the depths of the sea area, there will be sections of light sources that swim like fish. They are colorful and especially beautiful.”
Su Xiaolu asked, “Have you seen it before?”
An Xiaoou shook her head. “I haven’t seen them yet, but they said that they’re especially beautiful. All the fish people in the clan will come to see them during this season. They firmly believe that as long as they see the scenery together and sincerely want to be together, they will definitely be together, be it friends, relatives, or lovers.”
An Xiaoou translated these explanations to Su Xiaolu and the others. Her heart palpitated.
Hai Ming held her hand tightly. An Xiaoou felt that she could sense the frequency of Hai Ming’s heartbeat.
She couldn’t help but blush.
As a beam of light swam over, all the fish people emitted pleasant sound waves. They sounded very beautiful, as if they were singing.
Su Xiaolu had never thought that she would see such beautiful scenery and listen to the beautiful singing of the merpeople at the bottom of the sea.
Colorful lights came from somewhere and fell into the depths of the sea one by one, disappearing.
Su Xiaolu looked at Su Hua beside her and then at Gui You on her right. She followed Gui You over. It was Zhou Zhi.
Her family, friends, and Master were all here. She hoped that they would always be healthy and safe.
Her palm was itchy. She looked down and saw a green vine. Su Xiaolu held the vine and quickly glanced at Zhou Zhi. Zhou Zhi stared at the gorgeous scenery in front of him. Only the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
Su Xiaolu felt her heart beat faster. She smiled and held the vine tightly, focused on the scenery.
When the beam of light disappeared, the singing of the merpeople gradually disappeared.
Some were lovers, and some were family. They hugged each other.
Su Xiaolu and the others were stunned.
Humans were very restrained. The intimate actions between lovers and the intimate actions between family and friends would not be too unrestrained.
The old king said to Zhou Zhi and Zhou Heng, “For us fish people, family is very important, so we come here every year to look at the light source. It’s just like how people like to look at the stars in the sky.”
“Thank you, king, for leaving a deep impression on us on this trip. I miss my children and my wife very much now.”
Zhou Heng said with a smile. He was touched and revealed his true feelings.
The alliance had already been agreed on. Tomorrow, he would leave with some of the fish people.
Since Zhou Zhi had decided to stay, he would stay with the fish people and learn what he wanted to learn.
They had already agreed that they could replace new fish people to learn knowledge every year. This way, more fish people and humans could interact with each other and increase their understanding.
After returning to the palace, Su Xiaolu stopped An Xiaoou and went to her room.
“Xiaoou, can you sell some of the spiritual liquid of the fish race to me? To be honest, I’m going to detoxify the Wisdom King. If he wants to stay with the fish people, the detoxification process this time will be here. Can you help me ask the king? I have many precious herbs to exchange for it. I can also use money and goods commonly used by the human race.”
Su Xiaolu asked directly. She did not like to beat around the bush.
When An Xiaoou heard this, she agreed seriously. “Miss Su, I can’t promise you that I can, but I’ll pass the message to the king before answering you, okay?”
Su Xiaolu nodded.
An Xiaoou smiled and said, “Miss Su, if you meet my brother and uncle, please tell them that I’ve become a fish person. I’ll wait for them in the capital.”
An Xiaoou would follow them to the alliance this time. As a fish person, she would humbly study. It would be great if she could see her brother and uncle in the next few years.
However, she would not insist on meeting them. Everything was up to fate.
Su Xiaolu nodded. “No problem. After I detoxify him, I’ll train after I leave the fish people. When I find An Lie and An Cheng, I’ll tell them about you.”
