"Don't panic! I'll go up to her!" The leading Razor Tiger Shark shouted loudly as he watched his fellow comrades being intimidated by the scene earlier.
"Big Brother! Don't act rashly! This mermaid is clearly different from the rest. The weapon she has can easily pierce through our indestructible bodies. It isn't an ordinary weapon!" a Sharp Tiger Shark called out immediately.
"That's right, that's right! Young Patriarch! Why don't we call the experts over!" another shark behind said respectfully.
"Yeah, yeah!" another shark chimed in.
…
These voices rose and fell, gradually filling the ears of their young patriarch.
"Don't say anymore. If I call the experts of our tribe over, how will I be the leader in the future? This is the experience that they wanted me to have. If I can't go through with it, I'll be gravely humiliated!" the leading shark said through gritted teeth after struggling.
"Besides, I might not necessarily lose!"
With that, he opened his mouth and bared his fangs as he charged towards Mo Nian.
On the other side, Mo Yan and the rest were still astonished by the might of the spear.
The fire of hope that had been extinguished in their hearts reignited once again. Looking at the five warrior mermaids, Mo Yan's eyes lit up for the first time. Hope was here!
"Chief! We're saved!" the mermaid beside her exclaimed excitedly before cheering with the rest.
"Yes, we are…" Mo Yan muttered while trembling, not due to fear, but excitement!
Ever since she was chased by the Razor Tiger Sharks, she had been continuously looking for escape routes. There were many dangers that they encountered along the way, but all of them survived under Mo Yan's calm composure.
She had been highly tense during the entire escape. Her perseverance had been worn down time and again. Now, she finally saw hope!
Mo Nian and the others came up to Mo Yan.
"Greetings! My name is Mo Yan! I am the head of this clan!" Mo Yan said with a smile.
"Hello! My name is Mo Nian! The four people behind me are from the same place!" Mo Nian responded. The four mermaids flashed bright smiles on hearing this, hoping to show that they meant well.
"How did you know to come here? There are only five of you, but the might that you have…" Mo Yan asked in confusion.
"We are from Mermaid Island. We are here on the orders of our Island Master to find other members of our race. A few hours ago, we heard the Song of the Merfolk from not far away, so we rushed here."
"As for our might, it was also raised to this level with the help of our Island Master. I am a Rank One Novice Warrior, and these four mermaids here are not far behind my rank." Mo Nian explained.
"Rank One Novice! You're only a Rank One Novice!" Mo Yan gasped in shock when she heard Mo Nian's words. The mermaid behind her was also stunned.
A mermaid's strength took time to nurture, thus it was not easy to advance to Rank One, and usually those who did were much older. In contrast, Mo Nian and the other four mermaids appeared to be very young. This astonished Mo Yan.
"Then… then your Island Master is…" Moyan asked quickly.
"Our Island Master is a very great and gentle person!" Mo Nian and the rest of the island mermaids replied.
"By the way, our Island Master would like to invite other mermaids to live with us. There are perfect fortifications and powerful weapons there. You don't have to worry about being hunted by humans or underwater creatures. Our Island Master will protect you!" Mo Nian smiled and continued.
"Really? That's great!" Mo Yan and the mermaids behind her cheered.
"But what about these Razor Tiger Sharks…" Mo Yan looked at the twenty or so sharks not far away and said worriedly.
"Don't worry, they are nothing to be afraid of! After we get rid of them, we will bring you to see our Island Lord!" Mo Nian said calmly.
Then, Mo Nian and the others turned towards the charging sharks.
Mo Nian and the others watched as the sharks headed over. All of them gripped their spears tightly with indifferent expressions.
They knew that their weapons were not ordinary ones. Their might, despite not being on par with Mo Nian, who was a Rank One, the other four were still superior to the ordinary mermaids.
"Greet your death!" The charging Razor Tiger Shark at the front roared and opened its mouth wide to bite Mo Nian.
Mo Nian held her spear tightly and aimed at the shark's fangs. Instantly, the sound of metal colliding could be heard.
At the moment of contact, Mo Nian's pupils constricted, as she felt a repelling force being transmitted from the spear.
Mo Nian was instantly thrown back a few meters. She was about to spit out a mouthful of blood but swallowed it back.
The spear was knocked back and the huge impact caused Mo Nian's hand to tremble. So was the tip of the spear.
On the other side, the leading Razor Tiger Shark cried out in pain and was also thrown backwards. Its long fangs were slightly loosened at this moment, and there was a fine crack at the bottom of one of its fangs. It seemed that the fangs would shatter after a few more strikes, and a line of fresh blood flowed out from its mouth.
"This… this is impossible!"
The young leader of the Razor Tiger Sharks roared silently in his heart and looked at Mo Nian seriously for the first time.
Mo Nian was slightly surprised but she did not think much of it. She had only used the spear in her hand to slightly damage the fangs. She had not even mobilized her Rank One Novice abilities. The fangs would otherwise have been shattered in one go.
Hence, Mo Nian wielded the spear and aimed it towards the Razor Tiger Shark once again. The shark did not dare to bare its fangs anymore. Instead, it swung its thick and heavy tail, bringing the water with it. The tail was then swept down with its great might.
Mo Nian was aware of the tail coming towards her, and she immediately raised her spear, using all her strength to attack upwards.
When the spear came into contact with the Razor Tiger Shark's tail, blood flowed out and dissolved into the sea. Mo Nian quickly pulled the spear back out.
After a quick observation, she quickly stabbed another part of the tail. More blood flowed out, dying the surrounding seawater red.
The Razor Tiger Shark roared in pain and shook violently, trying to shake off Mo Nian's spear. However, Mo Nian held onto the spear tightly and used all her strength to prevent it from falling out.
"Come and help me!" the shark called out as he swam swiftly despite the intense pain, his tail swinging left and right rapidly.
Not far away, another shark who tried to come to the aid of his leader was immediately stabbed by the other four mermaids, killing the shark instantly. The rest of the sharks witnessed the death of their companions and were afraid to take action.
The shadow of death loomed over their hearts!
