"This is the Chief of Taoyuan—Gaiyin, and this is the Saintess of Taoyuan—Su Tang. It's them who have provided us with a place to live, so we should be thankful!"
Hai Qin introduced excitedly with a full flare of enthusiasm to his clan people, to their lack of reciprocation.
They stared at him with dead fish eyes, expressionless on their faces, even seemingly confused.
One of the clansmen asked, "Chief, why do we have to leave the sea where we were living just fine? Didn't you used to forbid us to interact with the beastmen on land?"
Hai Qin explained calmly, "The Mermaid Clan hasn't given birth to a cub in ten large seasons. The Sea Dragon Fish, which could potentially cure our Profound Cold Physique, has yet to be found. Living in the sea will only worsen our condition. To have cubs, we have to leave the sea."
Clan members wore an enlightened expression, "So that's why... But can we live on land forever?"
