MEIWITA Chapter 757: Yan’er, How Great it is to Have You!

---

The event of snatching Sea Berries was held once every century. Those who participated in the snatching competition must be the younger generation of the sea race and couldn’t be over forty years old.

Each clan could have ten direct pupils and five subordinate branch pupils. Of course, these five pupils could also be invited foreign aid.

It was originally a game for training among the juniors, but it gradually began to involve the clan, and it eventually turned into a competition for spots to participate in the Seastar Banquet.

The younger pupils of the Roman Clan weren’t very outstanding, and only the Young Lord Romanti was talented and capable, but he was only one person.

Therefore, it was very difficult to win the top ten, and it was even said that there was basically no hope.

Romanya was simple-minded. He had never participated in such a competition, so in his heart, his big brother was the most powerful, and he thought that the clan might be able to win a place to participate in the the Seastar Banquet.

An elderly man with white hair stared at Lou Mu Yan for a few moments, then asked Romanti: “Young Lord, this is?”

“First Elder, Young Miss Lou is a foreign aid we invited.” Romanti replied calmly.

When his younger brother invited Lou Mu Yan as a foreign aid at the beginning, both he and Arub doubted whether she would be qualified. After all, any one of the other five spots were also very precious, as it was related to the honour of the clan.

However, when they were attacked by several Heaven Elemental Realm sea beasts one time, the extraordinary combat power she displayed completely dispelled their doubts about her strength.

“A foreign aid at Core Elemental Realm?” Neither joy nor anger could be seen on the First Elder, but he obviously didn’t believe that the young lord would joke around with the honour of the clan.

The rest of the Roman Clan all stared at Lou Mu Yan, but apart from her beauty and good temperament, they couldn’t tell how strong she was. One must know that the other five spots were also very important.

Suspected by the other party’s Elder, plus those gossips, it was then that Lou Mu Yan remembered helplessly that she had used the Sorcerer’s Skill to cover up her cultivation base at Core Elemental Realm before.

“I believe that I’m qualified for a spot as a foreign aid.” She exuded a confident brilliance all over her body, and her aura made the people present feel that she was puzzling.

The First Elder was dazed for a moment, then said after a while: “Alright then.”

Immediately, he assigned Lou Mu Yan a spot that originally belonged to the weakest Core Elemental Realm pupil.

He was an Initial Unification Realm Sword Master, but this beautiful woman gave him a faint feeling of extraordinariness, so he decided to take a risk and give it a try.

“The competition to snatch Sea Berries will begin in a day, Mu Yan, you should rest and recuperate first.” Romanya whispered.

“Alright!”

Lou Mu Yan didn’t say much either, and walked beneath a large tree to sit cross-legged with her eyes closed to rest..

The reason why the Sea Berry Competition was held tomorrow was because the Sea Berries didn’t ripen until tomorrow.

What Lou Mu Yan revealed was only her cultivation base at Core Elemental Realm, and many people were mainly interested in her for her beauty.

Seeing her sitting cross-legged and alone, not having much contact with outsiders, and those who wanted to strike up a conversation were also blocked by Romanti, their curiosity and flirtatious thoughts also faded a lot. After all, the competition was more important.

The night breeze blew by, and it was extreme cool.

The entire Sea Berry Island was much quieter than during the day, and most people were resting and adjusting themselves, so that they could be in the best condition to face tomorrow’s competition.

Of course, there were also clans arriving on the island one after another.

In the middle of the night, Lou Mu Yan suddenly opened her eyes, looking in a certain direction with faint joy in her gaze.

Soon, a flying magic tool landed on the island, and a group of people alighted from it. Among them, a man in cyan clothes with an ordinary appearance raised his eyes and locked eyes with Lou Mu Yan who was sitting cross-legged in the distance.

There was a sparkling brilliance in the man’s eyes that were as deep as an ancient well.

The group of people went straight to the area of the Roman Clan. The First Elder of the Roman Clan, Romanti, and the others greeted them with smiles.

“Old Luo¹, you lot arrived early.” A blond elderly man who looked to be in his sixties greeted with a smile.

Elder Luo said with a smile: “It’s you lot who are arriving too late. Why, did something happen?”

“We encountered some trouble at sea, so we arrived late.” The blond elderly man continued: “Are we still competing together as agreed?”

“Of course.” The First Elder said: “Our Roman Clan and Keya Clan have always been best partners.”

The blond elderly man whispered with a smile: “This time, we might be able to enter the top ten.”

Elder Luo revealed slight surprise in his eyes, “What do you mean?”

The blond-haired elderly man introduced the man in black² beside him to Elder Luo, “This is Chi Xiu. He’s a foreign aid invited by our Keya Clan.”

Elder Luo glanced over and found that although the man opposite was ordinary in appearance, but he restrained an intangible momentum. Although he was only at Peak-Phase Heaven Elemental Realm, but even he felt a sense of danger from him.

“Haha, little friend Chi hides your powers well!” Elder Luo said with a modest smile.

He dared to be certain that this man was extraordinary. Although his cultivation base wasn’t as good as himself and Third Elder Keya, but his strength wasn’t necessarily weaker than them.

Ming Xiu smiled faintly and said: “Elder Luo overpraises.”

“You’ve worked hard along the way, go rest and adjust yourselves first.” Elder Luo was in a good mood.

The Roman Clan and Keya Clan had always been the closest of partners. Each time they encountered a major event, they advanced and retreated together. The Heaven Elemental Realm foreign aid the Keya Clan invited this time was very strong, and it could benefit them a lot as well.

“Alright!” Ming Xiu nodded.

The Keya Clan’s area was beside the Roman Clan, and Ming Xiu found a large tree to sit under cross-legged by himself.

Two women from the Keya Clan kept glancing in his direction, with faint admiration in their eyes, and they only walked not far away to rest when they saw that he had settled down.

Lou Mu Yan naturally noticed this scene and pursed her lips. Ming Xiu’s face had been changed into something so ordinary already, yet he could still ‘attract peach blossoms’. If he used that face as handsome as a deity, then he might just charm a large number of sea race women.

“Yan’er.” Just as she finished internally complaining, Ming Xiu’s voice entered her sea of consciousness.

“Why’re you here to participate in the Sea Berry competition too?” Lou Mu Yan asked.

“After I exited from the spatial rift, I landed on an island in the Southern Sea. I happened to meet the people from the Keya Clan who were attacked by a group of high-level sea beasts and helped them out.

“Then they invited me to participate in this competition.

“Of course, the most important thing is that I discovered your trace through the bangle’s tool spirit and found that you were moving in the direction of the Sea Berry Island, so I followed.” Ming Xiu paused, then added.

Lou Mu Yan’s eyes overflowed with a smile, “I knew you’d come to find me.”

After a while.

“Yan’er, why did you jump down with me.” Ming Xiu’s voice was somewhat hoarsely magnetic.

Lou Mu Yan looked sideways at Ming Xiu, locking her eyes with his, and said in a firm and clear voice, “I said I would live and die together with you.”

Ming Xiu’s heart trembled. Those were the most beautiful romantic words he had ever heard—‘live and die together’ touched him more than ‘I love you’.

An elegant arc rose on his lips. Even though his facial features were ordinary right now, but it seemed that it could never hide his splendour, “Yan’er, how great it is to have you!”

“Me too, how great it is to have you!” Lou Mu Yan chuckled, a melodious and joyful voice.

¹‘Roman’ in Chinese pin’yin is actually ‘Luó Màn’ (罗曼). Chinese has always translated ‘Roman’ to ‘罗曼’.

²the author said ‘cyan’ (青) at first, then somehow it’s ‘black’ (黑) here. No translation error. ALTHOUGH ‘青’ in very ancient times referred to the colour ‘black’ soooooo… I guess that’s why the description of black hair is sometimes referred to as ‘青丝’, such as in ‘三千青丝’ (three thousand strands of black hair—literal translation). Just means really thick black hair, very pretty and nice. But it could also be a typo, maybe the black was referring to his hair—it’s not the first time the author wrote ‘black clothes’ instead of ‘black hair’ or ‘red hair’ instead of ‘red clothes’—each time I just corrected it and didn’t mention it since it was pretty irrelevant. This time I’m not actually sure, hence I’m mentioning it… although it’s not important.
