"Bro… Brother-in-law, why… why did you do this to me? I… I just wanted to destroy a wooden statue… Gu Xijiu is still alive, but she built a credit temple for herself; how could you allow it? Even you don't have one…"
'Brother-in-law?! The Lord was the brother-in-law of this princess mermaid?' It was definitely breaking news to the ordinary people . At this moment, everyone was looking at each other with a shocked expression .
Lan Yaoguang just could not wait to shut his sister's mouth up! He immediately yelled, "Jingyi! Shut up! Xijiu is also our sister! She…"
"She's not . " Di Fuyi suddenly interrupted Lan Yaoguang .
Lan Yaoguang glimpsed at Di Fuyi with his mouth wide open . "Brother Huang, I thought you told us that Xijiu was reincarnated from one of my sister's souls…?"
"She has nothing to do with Lan Jingke . " Di Fuyi casually continued, "She's always been herself; no one else . Lan Jingke has passed away, and she is truly dead; just like how the other mermaids' souls have broken into pieces, she will never be reborn again…"
Lan Yaoguang's face turned pale, and he took a step back . "How… how is it possible? Brother Huang, I thought you said…"
"Lan Jingke was worried about you and your sister, and she was afraid that you might end up doing something silly as a result of depression; hence, she begged me to design a lie so that you will have something as your mental support…" Di Fuyi explained in an icy tone .
Lan Yaoguang stuttered, "But…"
"There is nothing much for you to argue with me . Yaoguang, I'll definitely take care of you and your sister since I've promised your eldest sister to do so when she passed away during the battle; that's also why I helped you to manage all the administrative works of the mermaid kingdom and even helped you to ascend the throne . In fact, I've already repaid your sister since you have already dominated the entire ocean for more than 5000 years . . .
Lan Yaoguang remained silent .
That was true, The Lord had been supporting him for a few thousand years, and he made the mermaid kingdom grow stronger than ever before; he also helped the mermaid clan to kill all its enemies .
Even though Lan Jingke had helped The Lord before, he has more than repaid them! It was now the mermaids who owed The Lord . . .
Lan Yaoguang was a smart person; hence, he finally understood after a short ponder . The Lord probably wanted the mermaids to be loyal and take good care of Gu Xijiu's body; hence, he claimed that Gu Xijiu was actually reincarnated from Lan Jingke . . .
Upon this realization, he took a step back and glimpsed at The Lord . He sighed . "Brother Huang, in fact, I'd still safeguard her body properly even if you didn't tell me Miss Gu was reincarnated from my sister…"
Di Fuyi's eyelashes flashed . "I'm sorry about this . "
It was his selfishness because he wanted Gu Xijiu to have strong support when she woke up . . . However, Di Fuyi never expected things to go in such a different direction; she felt hopeless and eventually decided to die with Mo Zhao just to fulfill his wish . . .
Although he was now apart from her and she might not know all these things he had done for her, she would be reborn someday in the future . Therefore, he might as well help her to solve all the problems while he was still alive .
Based on her capabilities, she might not even need to rely on the mermaids' power to unite this continent and rule it .
Conservatively, even if she really needs the power from the mermaids, she would have her own strategies and did not have to become their Empress .
Lan Yaoguang finally got it as he thought about it . He had a strange feeling because it was undeniable that The Lord had used him . However, compared to the contributions made by The Lord, the exploitation was hardly comparable .
