C1279 Self-punishment
"You … You are the great benefactor of our Merfolk. We will remember your words. Our Merfolk are both fish and humans. All this time, we have been getting along well with the people on the shore. They … They are also kind and friendly to us. We really like to get along with them, but … To think that we would do such a cruel thing. Regardless of whether it is from our heart, those things were indeed done by us, we … We can't explain it, we've let them down! So from today onwards … We, the Merfolk, are hiding in the deep sea. We will not be born again. This is … is our punishment for our ignorance, our incompetence and our crimes. "
When those words came out, a large portion of the human fish were stunned!
"Clan head …"
"Lord Clan Chief …"
Everyone understood what this punishment meant.
Meaning... Those curious little mermaid babies can no longer come to the coast to play; it means... They won't be able to eat any more of the delicious food on land; it means … They had to live a monotonous and boring life; it meant … Their Merfolk could only live in the dark deep sea for a long time …
The most severe punishment in the world was not physical pain, but spiritual and psychological isolation, indifference and emptiness!
The Mermaid Clan leader had given them the most severe punishment!
"I have already made up my mind. There is no need for all of you to say anything! For those who are deprived of their lives, this kind of punishment is for us … It's already very light! "
The Merfolk Patriarch's decision surprised Faang Cheng and made him respect him. They were indeed kind.
"You don't have to do that!"
He approached the Mermaid Clan Leader and squatted down to look at the elderly man to show his respect.
"During this chaotic period of time, we may have to suffer for a period of time in seclusion, but as long as this period of chaotic time passes and the peaceful and peaceful environment in which we live is restored, you will be able to appear as freely as before!"
Hearing his words, the Merfolk Patriarch looked at him excitedly. Its lips moved a few times, but no words came out!
"Okay …" "Alright …"
After a long time, the chief finally said two words.
Soon after, the Mermaid Clan leader slowly returned to the water, waving his arm towards everyone. All of them slowly sank back into the water, their eyes filled with reluctance and reluctance, but they did not stop their actions. They were just forgiving and receiving punishment for what they had done.
Faang Cheng and Qian Yuyang stood there and watched the shocking scene in front of them. So many mermaids dived into the water at the same time, their hearts … Silently bidding farewell to this bright and wonderful world. After all … No one knew how long this storm would last.
"When this matter has calmed down, I will personally come to invite you back to the land to live!"
The moment the Mermen entered the water, Faang Cheng shouted at them …
The surface of the sea regained its calmness. Faang Cheng retracted his gaze and looked at the linear Gu worms that were squirming on the island. They probably didn't like the water, so they all gathered on the island.
Faang Cheng snapped his fingers and the ground was set ablaze. Other than Qian Yuyang and the place where he was standing, the rest of the ground was engulfed in golden flames. Those Gu were fleeing in fear, but there was nowhere to run. Under the call of the spiritual flame, even ashes could not be seen.
"These things are so disgusting! If we cannot completely remove this Gu technique, I feel that we will have to waste a lot of energy and materials on it in the future! "
Qian Yuyang looked at the remaining ashes under his feet and stomped hard on them.
"That's right, so …" We need to make a trip to our daughter's territory! "
Faang Cheng nodded.
"But... We'll have to wait until everything in Yan City is settled! "
With that, he walked toward the boat.
Time to go back, there were still many things waiting for him in Salt City!
When the two of them returned to the shore, they saw that vice captain Xiao and a few guards were waiting for them on the shore. It seemed that some of the corpses on the shore had been cleaned up and were piled in a small forest not far away.
A little further away, Yuan Yue was currently standing there with her arms crossed tightly, watching as their boat gradually approached.
Faang Cheng's heart warmed.
He knew clearly in his heart that Vice-captain Xiao had probably carried the child back first, but she did not follow him back. She was worried!
Faang Cheng quickly walked towards Yuan Yue.
When Yuan Yue saw that he was perfectly fine and unharmed, she became so nervous that she loosened her grip on her sleeve.
"You … "We're back!"
She said to Faang Cheng with a faint smile.
"Mm, I'm back!"
As Faang Cheng said this, he pulled her into his embrace. Yuan Yue also quickly hugged him back.
"I'm fine, everything is settled!" "Your boyfriend is very powerful …"
Faang Cheng joked in a relaxed manner. He didn't want Yuan Yue to feel nervous.
"I know …"
Yuan Yue also said with a smile.
"Then we... "Go back!"
Hearing Yuan Yue's words, Faang Cheng first nodded his head and then opened his mouth.
"One more moment, one last thing!"
With that, Faang Cheng let go of Yuan Yue, turned around and walked towards the pile of corpses in the forest.
"If these corpses are piled up here, there will be a plague. We have to take care of them!"
He said to vice-captain Xiao.
"Yes, I know, but …" We have yet to think of the best solution! "
Vice Captain Xiao sighed. With so many corpses present, he really did not know where he could find a place to bury them.
"I don't need to think of anything else. It's best if they burn them …"
Right after Faang Cheng finished his sentence, he gently waved his hand and the entire corpse immediately ignited into a raging fire. The surrounding guards all quickly retreated.
"This …"
Everyone was shocked by Faang Cheng's actions. Even Yuan Yue looked at him with a look of admiration. What surprised everyone wasn't that he burned the corpses, but that he could make the whole piece of corpse burn up with a wave of his hand.
"Alright, let's go!" Before the corpses were completely burnt, it was impossible for the fire to extinguish, it's just that … "It's a pity that the forest was burned down as well!"
With that, Faang Cheng pulled Yuan Yue's hand and walked in the opposite direction.
Everyone stood where they were, staring blankly at the huge flame shooting straight up into the sky, unable to come back to their senses for a long time.
"Faang Cheng, you're too handsome …"
"Is there? "I don't think so …"
"There really is one. I think … "I seem to like you more …"
The conversation of the young couple came from not far away.
