Longevity starts from having a daughter in old age

Chapter 514: Chapter 471: Entering in Single File_1

Boom!

A massive beam of light shot out from the whale’s mouth, breaking half of its jaw. A figure then rocketed out of the mouth.

Argh!

The whale let out a heart-wrenching screech. Its colossal body smashed onto the sea surface with a mighty splash, sending sea waves several hundred feet high staining the whole heaven and earth.

The whale sank to the seafloor, its blood quickly dyeing a big portion of the sea.

“Who taught you ‘Kun Peng Tun Tian Jue’?”

In the surging sea, a burly old man with dark skin, wearing half-body armor with fish whiskers growing from the corners of his mouth, looked up at the sky and spoke casually.

Despite the apparent lack of effort in his voice, it clearly reached Xu Mu’s ears.

“I once ran into Princess Ming Ling Yulan. She taught me,” Xu Mu replied with a slight smile.

“Ming Ling Yulan?”

The elder slightly knit his brows. He had an impression of this name, but he couldn’t specifically remember who it refers to.

It isn’t surprising he can’t recall her, given how long he has been away, and how numerous his descendants have become.

Regardless of his identity, daring to spread the clan’s Martial Method would surely lead to severe punishment once this matter ends.

He raised his head to look at Xu Mu in the sky and continued, “Such strength within the Nascent Soul is seen once in a blue moon. However, this strength alone doesn’t qualify you to speak with me. Show me your trump cards, or you’ll lose the chance forever.”

“Since you say so, senior, I shall be straightforward!”

As he spoke, the aura from the Talisman given to him by his clone began to radiate once more.

The normally composed elder could not help but show a solemn expression on his face.

“No wonder Cluster Stars Sect members dared not lay hands on you,” remarked the elder with a sigh.

The aura emanating from the Talisman was extraordinary, and he had no certainty that he could resist it.

If he could resist it, all well and good; if not, the loss would be enormous.

“Release my Sea Race people, and this matter will be over, ” the elder said calmly.

Given his status, there was nothing inappropriate about his words.

Even the emperor of the Sea Race would have to comply obediently if he heard it.

“I bear no malice toward the Sea Race. This time, I crossed hands with your clan just to meet you, senior.”

Saying this, Xu Mu released all the Sea Race cultivators he had captured to demonstrate his sincerity.

“Greetings, Ancestor!”

The released Sea Race Nascent Souls, upon seeing the elder, hurried forward to pay homage, all flustered and scared.

“Ancestor, this person….”

Filled with fury from being imprisoned by Xu Mu, these people could hardly wait to request the elder to make a move as soon as they were released.

“What a bunch of disgraceful creatures! Get out of here now!”

However, the elder didn’t show any courtesy towards these younger Sea Race members and directly scolded them.

The members of the Sea Race dared not argue, but simply nodded in agreement and excused themselves.

However, before leaving, they couldn’t help giving Xu Mu a fierce glare.

Despite this, the elder quite appreciated Xu Mu’s decisive release of the hostages, and it made him feel a little better.

Even though Xu Mu posed a threat that he couldn’t handle, it was still unbearable to be threatened by a junior like this.

“You wished to meet me? It seems you have something to ask of me. Speak! What’s the matter?” asked the elder.

If it wasn’t too outrageous, he wouldn’t reject it and considered it as a reward for Xu Mu’s release of his people.

“I wish to form an alliance with the Sea Race, from swords to ploughshares, and to live in peace henceforth,” Xu Mu said.

“…”

Upon hearing this, the elder was taken aback.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Eventually, he couldn’t help but laugh out loud, “Peace between the Human Clan and the Sea Race? Haha! Are you joking or has cultivating damaged your brain?”

“Senior, you may have misunderstood me. I wasn’t referring to the Human Clan, but to me!” Xu Mu said calmly.

“Is there any difference?”

“The Human Clan is vast, I can’t represent the entire Human Clan. And the rival of the Sea Race isn’t the entire Human Clan, it’s the Cluster Stars Sect. I am an enemy of the Cluster Stars Sect, and the enemy of the enemy is, of course, a friend. So there’s no unsuitable for the Sea Race and me to form an alliance.”

“Huh? That’s an interesting proposition.”

The old man’s eyes flashed, not immediately agreeing.

He started pondering in his heart about the feasibility of this matter.

Whether Xu Mu and the Cluster Stars Sect were enemies did not matter, and neither did the truthfulness of his words.

What mattered was whether this matter, once accomplished, would benefit the Sea Race. If it did, then they could proceed.

For the Sea Race, this matter was almost all gains without loss.

If they could ally with a part of the Human Clan and annihilate another part, it would be equivalent to the Sea Race significantly weakening the Human Clan with minimal effort.

At the same time, losing the struggle in the Outer Sea, the Sea Race could take this opportunity to recover and continue to grow stronger.

Why not enjoy such a benefit?

Perhaps it was for this reason that the other party dared to talk to him.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t agree to a situation that harmed others for the benefit of oneself.

“If you can make good on your promises, I can represent the Sea Race in signing an agreement with you.”

“Elder, rest assured, I have always been true to my words.”

Because the matter was beneficial for both parties, it was quickly agreed upon.

This was the main reason why Xu Mu was scheming in the Outer Sea.

With the Sea Race as an ally, even if he lost the Refining Void talisman, he wouldn’t fear the Cluster Stars Sect and could even pit against one another, reaping the benefits in the end.

Apart from the usual signing of a peace agreement from both sides, Xu Mu was going to marry a princess from the Sea Race, forming a marital alliance.

This princess was none other than Ming Ling Yulan!

The mother of MingLing Chun!

…

“No way, I absolutely will not agree! If I have to marry a human, I’d rather die!”

Inside the Sea Race palace, Ming Ling Yulan screamed hysterically.

“This is the command of our ancestors, whether you like it or not, you will marry. Even if it means dying, you will die in their house!”

After saying that, the Sea Race emperor turned and left directly.
