The fourth princess, who looked calm and calm, couldn't help but muttered a few words like 'cheeky' and 'troublemaker' in her heart.

Originally, the sacrificial ceremony should have been happy, but the mermaid king brought Mrs. Sang, which has made the atmosphere very embarrassing, and now it's okay, there are a total of six princes and princesses, and two of them are absent at once, and the atmosphere on this face is even more mysterious

But after all, this belongs to the family affairs of the mermaid royal family, so the other mermaids don't dare to say anything, but what they think in their hearts is unknown.

As the minutes passed, the altar gradually emitted colorful lights, and all the merfolk knelt down in unison when they saw the picture that was a miracle for them.

Not only them, but also the elders closest to the altar and the people of the merfolk royal family also left their positions and knelt down in the direction of the altar......

The light on the altar became brighter and brighter, and all the mermaids bowed their heads reverently, and began to worship the sea god in the language of the mermaids.

The sacrificial ceremony was going smoothly, and the five elders in the front position lowered their heads, suppressed the doubts and inexplicable uneasiness in their hearts, and prayed for the arrival of the sea god like other mermaids.

According to the process of the previous sacrifice ceremony, the god of the sea will most likely appear within ten minutes of the start of the sacrifice, of course, the god of the sea is also very 'busy', so in previous years, there have been cases where the god of the sea did not come.

But even if they don't come, in order to thank them for their faithful devotees, the sea god will leave rich gifts on the altar.

It's just that for some reason, more than ten minutes have passed since the sacrificial ceremony, but there is still no response on the altar.

Some rough-witted merfolk may think that Poseidon is just 'late', but the mermaids who know some of the inside information are already feeling a little panicked inside.

Although they are not afraid of the invasion of the fishmen, they do not want the rituals to be disrupted...... That's what they fear the most!

But what they feared the most, and what they least wanted to see, finally happened.

"Oh no! A large number of fish-people appeared outside the protective cover just now...... They've now surrounded the entire merfolk race! ”

Originally, I wanted to ask why he broke in so recklessly, but now when he heard that something was going on outside, everyone stopped talking.

The fastest reaction was still the Great Elder, he left here directly with the people, followed by the Third Elder and the Fourth Elder, after all, the two of them were responsible for the safety of the Fishman, and the Fishman invasion was also related to them.

As the fifth elder who knew the most inside information, she actually wanted to go out with her to take a look at the situation, but she knew that she was obviously more needed here than going out.

There is a great elder outside to take care of it, so basically there won't be too many problems, only here...... The mermaid king is obviously unreliable, although the eldest prince has some means, he is still young after all, and he can't suppress so many mermaids here.

"The sacrifice is suspended, and all the mermaids are not allowed to leave here." The Fifth Elder commanded in a stern voice.

In the face of the panicked mermaids, she methodically instructed the people around her to keep an eye on their surroundings to prevent unknown creatures from entering the place, and also to prevent any ghosts from going out to ventilate or do some other things.

The other merfolk obviously knew that something was wrong with the current situation, so they all subconsciously obeyed the orders of the five elders, after all, she seemed to be the most reliable now.

But the fact that other merfolk are willing to listen to the words of the five elders does not mean that all merfolk are willing to listen to him.

"Fifth Elder, what do you mean!" The Mermaid King saw that he was surrounded by him, his face instantly became very ugly, and he scolded sharply, not so much because he wanted to get an answer from the five elders, but because he wanted to brush up on his sense of existence.

After all, he is the king of mermaids, and the people around him ignore him. And only obeying the orders of the five elders was obviously a very faceless thing for him.

Facing the mermaid king's questioning, before the fifth elder could say anything, someone was already talking to her.

"Father, the five elders are also doing this for the sake of the mermaid clan." The eldest prince said in a deep voice.

The reason why the mermaid king said that just now was originally for the sake of face, but he didn't expect that it was not the fifth elder who answered him, but his eldest son.

Being refuted by his own child was obviously a more humiliating thing, so his mood was even worse, his heart was like a fire burning, and the expression on his face became a little distorted.

He was about to scold a few words angrily, but he didn't expect the third princess, who has always been introverted and taciturn to the outside world, also spoke: "Internal and external troubles, the mermaid clan is in danger, and my father should not care about these small things at this time." ”

was slapped in the face by the two children in a row without giving face at all, and the mermaid king was so angry that he couldn't speak, but Mrs. Sang on the side seized this opportunity and coaxed the mermaid king with a gentle and careless meal, and the other mermaids listened to Mrs. Sang's soft words of comfort, and they all turned their heads away.

Some people don't dare to look at it, like the eldest prince, they don't want to see it at all!

At this time, they couldn't help but think about a question in their hearts-

The man in front of him, who is irritable and irritable, completely obsessed with Mrs. Sang's beauty, who does not care about the priority of things, and acts casually according to his own ideas, is he really the wise 'father' he once was?

Soon, they didn't have time to dwell on this issue, because the situation outside seemed to have changed again, and a mermaid entered the banquet with the order of the Great Elder.

"Fifth Elder, Sixth Elder, Your Highnesses, the Great Elder said that most of the fishmen outside have been wiped out, and today's sacrificial ceremony has been suspended, you can go back to your palace first, and discuss all matters after the Great Elder returns."

This is obviously good news, but it seems to reveal a bit of oddity.

But most of the merfolk present didn't find anything wrong, after all, in their opinion, the merfolk often harass the mermaids, but they have repeatedly failed, maybe this time it's just that they just happened to know that the merfolk were going to hold a sacrifice ceremony, so they deliberately came over to disgust them, but their combat effectiveness was not as good as the mermaids, so they would still be repelled in the end.

"Then we'll go back first?" The mermaid looked at the five elders and asked.

No one wants to be guarded here like a prisoner all the time, they all want to go home, so when one merfolk took the lead and said so, the other merfolk also said they wanted to leave.

"Since the Great Elder has already said let's go back, let's go back."

"Fifth Elder, you don't believe us, you should always believe in the Great Elder, right?"
