2378 Seventh Emperor!

The thought of Lin Yuan, who was a single mermaid emperor, visiting her city almost caused Luna to overheat with excitement.

As Lin Yuan looked out across the city, he stopped swimming and turned to say to Luna, “I haven’t been out swimming for a long time because I’ve been preoccupied with improving my bloodline. Before I went into seclusion, Grace Sacred Hall’s two rulers were still around. Why aren’t they around now?”

A look of indignance crossed Luna’s face.

“Ever since Grace Sacred Hall’s two rulers disappeared, they now exist in name only. The four royal attendants spend all day fighting and don’t care at all about developing Grace Sacred Hall. All they think about is how they can fight to elevate their position in Grace Sacred Hall.

“Grace Sacred Hall was already suffering from a great loss in combat power. But instead of trying to band together, all they do is fight and continue to diminish the combat power. There is no way that Grace Sacred Hall will be able to make a comeback.

“Previously, I was sent to check on Grace Sacred Hall. It is my understanding that there is something fishy about the disappearance of Grace Sacred Hall’s two rulers. It is likely that the disappearance of the two rulers is related to the four royal attendants.

“After the two rulers disappeared, the four royal attendants did try to conduct a search. But they only persisted for six months before they gave up. If the disappearance of the two rulers isn’t related to the four royal attendants, they should be searching for hundreds or even thousands of years. They only searched for six months because they needed to put up an act.”

Given Luna’s scorn toward Grace Sacred Hall, Lin Yuan got a glimpse of just how powerful Mermaid Forbidden Sea was.

If Mermaid Forbidden Sea did not have sufficient powerhouses to keep Grace Sacred Hall under their thumb, Mermaid Forbidden Sea would not feel so much disdain for Grace Sacred Hall.

Luna’s investigation of Grace Sacred Hall was very thorough. Her assessment was very similar to the reports from Isa, Extreme Ocean, and the rest.

Her detailed investigation of an enemy faction demonstrated her extremely high competence.

However, the two rulers were not just missing but were already dead. Even the daughter they had together had lost her life under unknown circumstances.

It was clear that the four royal attendants had not killed the daughter. If they had done so, her source totem would not have fallen through the water world dimensional rift.

Lin Yuan had always been curious about how the daughter had died. Just who killed the daughter right under the nose of the four royal attendants?

After Luna told Lin Yuan about Grace Sacred Hall, she started introducing Mermaid Forbidden Sea to him, “Lord Emperor, I’m not sure when you went into seclusion. Mermaid Forbidden Sea hasn’t changed much in the past few years. The five emperors still rule us. With you included, there should be six rulers now!

“The good news is that one of the emperors has found a partner and that there should be another emperor appearing in the future. Many king-class mermaids choose to go into seclusion like you. However, all of them failed. They might have failed to improve their bloodlines, but four of them successfully boosted themselves from the Turning Wheel Realm to the Samsara Realm. Mermaid Forbidden Sea now has 11 Samsara Realm mermaids!”

Lin Yuan was shocked and suspicious when he heard what Luna said.

He was shocked because Mermaid Forbidden Sea already had two times the number of powerhouses than Grace Sacred Hall and was close to reaching three times.

Moreover, Mermaid Forbidden Sea not only had mermaids as powerhouses but also had many sea beasts whose power could not be ignored. It was even possible that there could be Samsara Realm sea beasts!

Lin Yuan had expected Mermaid Forbidden Sea to be very strong, but he had not expected the extent to be so overwhelming. Mermaid Forbidden Sea alone could be considered the top combat power of the entire marsh world!

The water world’s top combat power was so much stronger than the marsh world’s that it was astonishing!

Lin Yuan was suspicious because what did the imminent appearance of a seventh emperor have to do with an emperor finding a partner? How were these two events related?

If this was any other issue, Lin Yuan would have immediately asked Luna about anything that he was unsure about.

But this matter concerned the mermaids’ biggest secrets. Given the strength of his bloodline that he was exhibiting, he did not have a reason to probe deeper. Thus, he did not pose his questions to Luna.

Instead, he decided to wait until he had a chance in the future to bait her into telling him the answer herself.

Lin Yuan nodded at Luna.

After he entered the palace, Luna immediately sent the servants away to prepare a bountiful feast to welcome Lin Yuan.

Luna’s mind was filled with unsavory thoughts and desires, but king-class mermaids could only silently stew in their desires for emperor-class mermaids. They could not express their yearning with too much enthusiasm. Otherwise, it would be considered as crossing the boundaries of their bloodline, and their species would immediately cast them aside.

Eternal Source had been examining the interior design of the city.

Luna had not shown her back to Eternal Source while she was speaking, so Eternal Source had heard everything word clearly.

This allowed Eternal Source to recognize just how powerful Mermaid Forbidden Sea was. This led him to understand the importance of unity in a faction.

If the mermaids of Mermaid Forbidden Sea were not bounded by their bloodline, they would never be this united, and Mermaid Forbidden Sea would not have developed as well as they had.

Eternal Source now saw the direction he needed to work toward in his position as Lin Yuan’s subordinate.

After returning to the marsh world, Eternal Source intended to deepen his ties with Vine Source, Evil Source, Hornless Dragon Source, and the rest before he brought the entire marsh world together.

His actions would definitely earn him Lin Yuan’s praise.

Just when Luna was done preparing the delicacies of the water world and numerous elite mermaids were laying out the plates topped with food, Lin Yuan received a message from Wen Yu through the Thoughts Letter Paper.

“Young Master, Yin Lin has sent word through the Thoughts Letter Paper. You don’t need to worry anymore! However, Bu Po is in trouble and may need our help.”

Lin Yuan’s face fell when he saw Wen Yu’s message.

Lin Yuan always paid extra attention to the happenings in Bu Po’s life during the Astronomical Parliament parliamentary meetings, so he was very clear about what was happening with Bu Po.

Bu Po was not the type who liked to trouble others. He had to be in grave danger for him to reach out to Wen Yu.

If Wen Yu had not confirmed that Bu Po’s situation was dire, she would not have called Lin Yuan back despite knowing that he was in the water world.
