The tone of these two sea sprites was neither serious nor harsh, but rather as if they were mustering great courage.
As personal maids to the Young Mistress, losing her was the greatest dereliction of duty for a servant.
Once the news reached the Han Yang Empire, it didn't matter whether the Young Mistress was eventually found or not.
The two of them would not escape death!
So these two marine spirits, born from a clamshell, chose not to report the news to the Han Yang Empire for the time being.
Instead, they launched an attack on Lu City with the power and resources they had.
Under such circumstances, they had to find an ally for themselves.
Being the lord of the nearby sea area of Lu City, Hua Ji was the best choice for an ally.
Also, their words were not empty, because they were not attempting to intimidate or deceive Hua Ji.
Once the Young Mistress is not found or something bad happens, and the news reaches the Han Yang Empire.
