MEIWITA Chapter 779: The Best Time to Extort

---

Lou Mu Yan also actually intended to ‘repay’ Fox Lan’s previous plotting by saying these words so openly.

Lan Si’s smile froze, then the smile in his eyes faded a little, “Little Yan’er, you still like holding grudges so much.”

Remembering the stupid things his avatar did on Tian’ling Continent before, he was a little annoyed. He, the majestic Southern Sea King, actually signed an I owe you. If those old damned immortals found out, wouldn’t they die of laughter.

But seeing Lou Mu Yan’s shining eyes filled with smiles, such annoyance could only be released as helpless sighs.

The I owe you must be retrieved. This was a karma that must be settled.

This time, he originally wanted to lure Lou Mu Yan here just to retrieve the I owe you, but who would’ve thought that as he paid more attention to her little by little, and with the return of the emotions of the avatar, he actually couldn’t be cold and punish Lou Mu Yan, nor make her completely disappear in the Southern Sea, nor be annihilated in this world.

He was originally a little annoyed that he had something out of his control for the first time, and almost wanted to personally destroy Lou Mu Yan.

But who would’ve thought that because of such complicated emotions, he would actually breakthrough the barrier that couldn’t be penetrated for a long time. After he calmed down, he realised that, compared to the frosty, emotionless cultivation and palace, having more feelings wasn’t a bad thing.

It was just that although he had developed an interest in Lou Mu Yan, or rather, actually had a little affection for her, he didn’t want to forcefully possess her—not because he couldn’t do it, but purely because he wanted to retain a little bit of emotional regret.

Perfect things would lose some meaning because they were too perfect, while it was more interesting to have regrets.

The previous Path he pursued was perfection, but since this feeling broke through to the last layer of the barriers, he suddenly had inspiration—to tolerate this uncontrollable factor and leave this regret.

Because of his different feelings towards Lou Mu Yan, he pampered her very much.

Or maybe it was because of Lou Mu Yan, this fortuitous opportunity, that he was able to take that step forward, so he was extra tolerant of and doting towards her.

Otherwise, if it were someone else, what happened at the Seastar Banquet today would leave them as a dead body.

“I’ve always had a clear distinction between grievances and favours.” Lou Mu Yan shrugged with a smile, “Now we’re even.

“So let’s settle what you owed me before.” Then she added with narrowed eyes.

Lan Si stretched out his hand in amusement and said: “Show me the jade slip.”

The I owe you was written by his avatar with mental energy, and he naturally knew what was written in it, but he still wanted to read it again.

Lou Mu Yan wasn’t afraid of him going back on his words. It’d be embarrassing if he repudiates in front of so many people.

“You’re so poor that you only have treasures left, how about giving me some more Four-Layer and Five-Layer Heavy Waters to use.” Lou Mu Yan handed the jade slip with the I owe you engraved on it to Lan Si, and said with a rogue smile.

“…”

The people present even felt horrified when they heard the conversation between the two. They didn’t expect that His Majesty the Great King of the Southern Sea would actually owe this little girl something—and the most important thing was that he even wrote an I owe you.

How much honour and favour would it take for the Southern Sea King to do such a thing? Could it be that they’d have an additional human Queen?

Then they were really envious, jealous, and hateful inwardly—whatever it was that could be extorted from His Majesty the Sea King must all be treasures.

The basket of Seastar Fruits just now was an example—and the hearts of the high-ranking members of the sea race were in pain again.

Now hearing Lou Mu Yan’s even more shameless request for Four-Layer and Five-Layer Heavy Waters, not only were their hearts in absolute pain, but they also almost went insane.

One must know that Four-Layer and Five-Layer Heavy Waters were already equivalent to a divine rank spiritual item—even if one had spiritual stones, they couldn’t buy it.

And Five-Layer Heavy Waters could only be refined by Sword Masters who were at Celestial Unification Realm with their water attribute at Perfection Realm, and there were only three people in the entire Southern Sea who could refine Five-Layer Heavy Water.

Two of them were Ancestors of the Southern Sea Royal Family who had been in seclusion to pass their life-or-death tribulation, while the other was the Southern Sea King, Lan Si.

Therefore, not to mention the Southern Sea, even for the entire Sea Realm, the Five-Layer Heavy Water was something that all Unification Realm powerhouses would go crazy for.

And why did the appearance of this damned girl asking for Heavy Water so casually look like she deserved a beating…

“You’re so poor that you only have spiritual stones left, but this King isn’t so poor that only treasures are left.”

Lan Si couldn’t help poking Lou Mu Yan’s forehead with his finger and said angrily: “Little girl, you sure can say it easily. Five-Layer Heavy Water is something that even this King needs to spend a century refining to produce one.”

“You promised me before that you’d give me more treasures after I came to the Southern Sea.” Lou Mu Yan continued to act shamelessly, “And with your current realm, if you breakthrough one more step, wouldn’t it become easier for you to refine Five-Layer Heavy Water.”

From Lan Si’s tone, she could tell that this guy definitely had a treasure like the Five-Layer Heavy Water.

From the moment she entered the hall and saw Lan Si, to facing Lan Si right now, there was a very delicate moment during which she discovered that Lan Si’s aura had suddenly become very vague, as if he was about to blend into the world.

Or maybe Lan Si seemed to have mastered the laws of this world, and it wasn’t as simple as being able to arrange a domain.

Therefore, she concluded that Lan Si’s state of mind should’ve broken through, and he could reach a certain state as long as he went into seclusion for a little while.

She keenly and faintly felt that he could blend into any place in this world, which was also the legendary ‘unity of person and nature’.

The fluctuating aura rippled for a very short time, and it’d be impossible to discover it if weren’t that she had the activated Heavenly Phoenix bloodline.

After all, the Heavenly Phoenix was a True Spirit existence, that was to say, it belonged to an Upper Immortal. When it descended in the Blood Pool, she had a feeling that the Heavenly Phoenix had already merged into this world.

However, she didn’t dare to guess further whether Lan Si was about to step into the realm that many old monsters on Guang’ling World were longing for or not.

All she needed to know now was that Lan Si was in a good mood, and his attitude towards her was indulgence.

Because only this sort of moment was the best time to extort. After today, Lan Si would definitely not be as easy to talk to as right now.

Hearing Lou Mu Yan’s last sentence, Lan Si narrowed his eyes slightly—this girl’s senses were really keen.

If it weren’t to truly breakthrough the last hurdle, and Lou Mu Yan wouldn’t be willing to stay either, he really wanted to keep her in the Southern Sea as the Queen.

“For the sake of you, Little Yan’er, who have always missed me so much, this King can consider it.”

Lou Mu Yan’s eyes lit up, “Teacher, you really are a representative of what is most upright and kind-hearted, and worthy to be His Majesty the Sea King with promises that could be counted on.”

She was in such a good mood that she even flattered, something she rarely did.

“…” The helplessness in Lan Si’s heart only grew. He actually felt speechless.

The superior members of the royal family of the Southern Sea all looked as if they were given a stimulant—not because their King said that he would consider giving Lou Mu Yan Four-Layer and Five-Layer Heavy Waters, but because their hearts were already in such pain that they wanted to toss Lou Mu Yan right out of the Southern Sea.

How did this shameless little girl deceive and confuse their great Majesty, the Southern Sea King.

Those were Five-Layer Heavy Waters even more precious than divine rank spiritual items!

Did it have to be this stimulating, if this continued, these old bones of theirs would really shatter from anger…
