The Mermaid Queen rushed forth and stepped in front of Zu An. “Dragon King, he is just an ordinary person. Don’t scare him.” When he saw how she was protecting him, the Dragon King’s eyes twitched. He had fawned upon her for so many years, but when had she ever cared about him? She was acting so gentle and nervous toward another man right now! He felt as if a blade had been thrust straight into his heart. But when he saw that beautiful face, he couldn't bring himself to get angry at her at all. He could only vent all of his frustrations onto Zu An. “Hah, do you only know how to hide behind a woman? I really wonder just what the queen sees in you.” You have successfully trolled Ao Wudi for +555 +555 +555… Zu An smiled and didn’t seem to mind it at all. “You can find a woman to hide behind just like me too, so why aren’t you looking for one? Or maybe you can’t do it? There’s no way, there’s no way, right?” The Dragon King was outraged. When had he ever experienced these kinds of strange phrases from Earth’s Internet? He was so angry he almost vomited blood on the spot. You have successfully trolled Ao Wudi for +999 +999 +999… The Mermaid Queen also had a strange expression. She'd been worried that this foolish guard would be bullied, but it now seemed like the one who was being bullied was the Dragon King! “You dare to offend this king’s dignity? You’re courting death!” The Dragon King could no longer hold it in and swung a claw at Zu An’s head. From the looks of it, Zu An’s head would explode like a completely ripe melon as soon as it made contact. There were many individuals present who normally didn’t get along with the Dragon King, but this was a rare instance where they completely agreed with the Dragon King’s actions. They wanted him to kill this lover of the Mermaid Queen, and the sooner the better. But the Mermaid Queen already understood the Dragon King’s temperament and stepped in front of Zu An preemptively. The Dragon King could only redirect his claws’ force to the side. Boom! The defensive formations covering that segment of the palace wall flickered for a moment before going fully dim, and the wall was smashed to pieces by the Dragon King's claw. The powerful Ocean race cultivators present exchanged a look. They all saw the fear in each other’s eyes. This Dragon King is perverted, but his cultivation hasn’t declined at all. Even Mojard gave him a second look. He seemed to have underestimated the Dragon King's strength a bit from how passive and agreeable the latter normally acted. The Mermaid Queen looked coldly at the Dragon King. “Dragon King, you’ve crossed the line.” At the same time, she said to Zu An via voice transmission, “You are someone Suyin brought back. I have no feelings for you, but you need to cooperate with me in this performance.” When he heard her warning, Zu An rubbed his nose. She still couldn’t drop her earlier act even in this situation. Would she die from embarrassment if she found out the truth? He had to admit that the Mermaid Queen really was beautiful. Right now, the two of them were really close to each other since she was standing protectively in front of him. He could clearly smell the faint fragrance coming from her body. Together with her perfect and graceful figure, it was enough to make any man go crazy. He didn’t know what kind of method she'd used to hide this scent before, but it seemed she was quite good at acting and didn’t neglect such small details. The Dragon King was about to explode out of anger. “Queen, are you really going to just continue protecting him like this?” You have successfully trolled Ao Wudi for +666 +666 +666… The Mermaid Queen’s expression remained calm as she replied, “He is my lover. Who would I protect if not him?” What, do you want me to say I’ll protect you? But those words could provoke him too much. If she ended up pushing him all the way to the monsters’ side, it wouldn’t be good at all. Zu An felt as if he could hear the sounds of hearts breaking all around him as soon as she said those words. Then, the Rage points he was receiving climbed even higher. He had a strange expression. Even though he didn’t want to get too involved with someone like the Mermaid Queen who was incredibly famous in this era, the speed at which he was earning Rage points really was hard to pass up. Maid Peach was so excited that her little face was completely red. She'd thought the queen had never liked anyone and even wondered if she'd lost the ability to like someone. Now, she realized that once the queen liked a man, she was actually incredibly brave! I hope the queen’s future husband will live up to the queen’s sincerity. “Just what is so special about this guy?” The Dragon King stared straight at Zu An. The Mermaid Queen smiled. “He is just an ordinary guard. But it’s enough that I like him.” Afterward, she quickly said privately to Zu An, “You absolutely cannot misunderstand. I do not have any feelings for you and it is all to deal with the current situation.” Zu An nodded. When he saw how she almost had two different personalities, he almost broke out into laughter. The more you get into the act, the worse the social suicide will be! “Just an ordinary guard?” “It’s enough as long as you like him?” … Peach blinked. The queen really knows how to act. Your future husband is so amazing, how could he just be a normal guard? Or is she being humble on purpose? I really can’t figure it out. Peach thought that maybe she just couldn't understand because she was of lower status, but when the others heard that description, they almost vomited blood out of anger. They actually couldn't even compare to an ordinary guard! The Mermaid Queen’s feelings for him were actually this strong! Could it be that this guard is one of those charming devils? There were some others who had cold expressions. How could an ordinary guard possibly have the fortune of enjoying the love of the Ocean races’ number one beauty? There is no way the Mermaid Queen can always be around that guy. There are a million ways to kill this ordinary guard later! The Dragon King was about to say something else, but Mojard couldn't continue to watch. He said with a cold laugh, “I didn’t come here to see a romantic drama.” The Dragon King was shocked. He knew he had already made Mojard unhappy, so he could only suppress the jealousy and anger inside him. He would slowly settle things with that guard later. Mojard looked at Zu An, and his gaze shifted to Peach. “Earlier, I sent Deputy Officer Sha to invite this lady here. Where is Deputy Officer Sha?” Peach was just an ordinary girl, so how could she withstand the powerful pressure of this kind of powerful monster? She immediately panicked when she met his gaze and reflexively looked at Zu An. “Oh?” Mojard raised his brows. His attention returned to Zu An. “It seems Deputy Officer Sha has already perished at your hands!” A bit of confusion flashed through the Mermaid Queen’s eyes. This foolish guard’s skills are weak. He is far, far weaker than Deputy Officer Sha. How could he possibly win against the latter? The Dragon King and the other Ocean race experts suddenly realized something. So this kid was disguising himself as a pig to eat a tiger! I was just about to say, why would the Mermaid Queen like an ordinary guard? Zu An shook his head. “What Deputy Officer Sha? I've never met him before. Please don’t wrongly accuse me, sir.” At the same time, he released a sigh inwardly. This Mojard before him was high-spirited, and was almost an entirely different person compared to the depressed Mojard he'd met previously. “Your glib talk is useless in front of me. We’ll know everything once we find the corpse.” As soon as Mojard spoke, he disappeared and reappeared deep inside the palace. The Mermaid Queen’s expression changed. She wanted to stop him, but it was already too late. She only felt even more astonishment at the Incestuous King’s profound cultivation. The Dragon King had wanted to protect the Mermaid Queen, but he now just watched coldly from the side. He was hoping for the Incestuous King to find proof, then smack this random lover who had come out of nowhere to death.
