"Master, may I inherit the power later? I’m not comfortable with the Jimo Family wanting to execute Uncle Ling..."

Mu Ruyue shook her head and said with a faint smile, "Yse, do you think with your current strength you can achieve anything?"

Hearing this, Yse’s body trembled slightly, and he couldn’t help but clench his fists tightly.

She’s right.

With his current weakness, what could he possibly achieve?

Even if he went to the Jimo Family, it would be akin to seeking death...

"Yse, you’ve been away from the Merfolk Clan for quite some time. Now with the situation unclear, I won’t let you take any risks. Even if there are many in the Merfolk Clan who support your Yi Family, one can never truly know another’s heart. Moreover, even with their help, there’s no guarantee of defeating the Jimo Family." 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

"But..."

Yse was still somewhat hesitant, "Uncle Ling and the others were captured because of me. How can I just watch them be executed? I can’t do that!"

"Rest assured, I will go. I won’t let anyone harm your people."

The woman’s voice was as indifferent as the wind, yet it struck Yse’s heart like a heavy hammer. He opened his mouth, yet found himself at a loss for words...

He couldn’t deny being moved.

Even though he had reluctantly formed a pact with her back then, Yse could feel her concern for the Demon Beast.

To meet such a master in this lifetime, he would give his life for her, without regret!

"Master, I don’t want anything to happen to you!"

Yse raised his ice-blue eyes, looking at Mu Ruyue with a determined expression, "Therefore, I must go personally. You’ve already done enough for me; I don’t want to burden you any longer. The Jimo Family is not as simple as you think, Master. I’m going back to the Merfolk Clan with a willingness to die! As long as I can expose his plot, no matter how dangerous, I will face it. But, Master, you shouldn’t get involved, and I don’t want to burden you. However, whatever you need, I will obtain it for you!"

Indeed, he can’t continue to burden her. If he went to the Jimo Family this time, life and death would be uncertain...

"Yse, this is an order!"

Mu Ruyue frowned, her expression turning cold, "When I saved you before, it wasn’t to help you but to make you my strength! If you just go to your death like this, then why did I save you from that person at all? Now you must stay and accept the inheritance. Only when your strength breaks through will you become my power."

With that, she slowly turned around, a faint smile forming at the corners of her mouth.

"Yse, there is a man waiting for me in hell, so no matter how dangerous, I will live! If you want to repay me, then raise your strength, and be my power for life!"

Yse’s heart trembled as he stared blankly at the woman with her back to him, a strange feeling of being moved swept over him...

"Alright, I’ll obey you."

Indeed, she has done so much for him, the only way to repay her is to fight with all his life for her.

And not to go seek death...

Mu Ruyue said nothing more, raising her head to look at the sky, her starry dark eyes flashed with a light, which quickly disappeared...

"Wuchen, once this matter is resolved, I... will be able to see you."

What of hell?
