“Met! Met!”

Nan Tianzhao’s face lit up with fervor as his body trembled with excitement.

“Ten years ago, I had accompanied our tribe leader to the imperial capital to pay homage and caught a distant glimpse of the Music Saint!”

“Oh! What a fate!” The snake man smiled slightly.

The crowd, listening to their conversation, found it dizzyingly mysterious.

The Music Saint?

Could it be that Music Saint, whose fame resonates throughout the Sea Race empire, who even the seven king clans find difficult to invite?

Rumor has it that he made his name just over a hundred years ago, making him the youngest Music Saint in the history of the Sea Race. The entire Sea Race Empire takes pride in listening to his music.

How on earth could this representative of the Human Clan, someone to whom even the emperor pays his respects, suddenly appear here?

“Sir, I have an impolite request. I would like to invite Music Saint to visit our White Scale Tribe!” Nan Tianzhao said, looking at the snake man with anticipation.

The snake man in front of him was a legendary figure in the Sea Race Empire. If he could invite him back to their tribe, it would unquestionably be a great honor.

“Hmm, all right! But do not spread news of my presence!” the snake man said, after giving it a moment’s thought, then nodding.

If he were to decline such a polite request, it would be difficult to justify himself.

“Definitely! Definitely!”

Nan Tianzhao nodded in agreement.

Even though he could not leverage the snake man’s fame, just the ability to invite him was a great honor. He looked at the crowd around him and coldly declared, “Whoever dares to reveal the whereabouts of the Music Saint, do not blame me for punishing you under tribal law!”

“Understood!”

The crowd around him naturally nodded in agreement.

“Sir, please!”

“Hmm!”

The group ushered the snake man into the sea depths and departed grandly, leaving behind a confused Nan Peiyao and her companions.

Nan Peiyao’s glances flickered, and she ran towards the island with the three children. She wanted to ask Xu Mu what was happening.

Why on earth would this legendary character come to her rescue?

“Peiyao, I–”

Nan Bi Yun stammered, about to follow her.

“Roll!”

Nan Peiyao looked back at her with cold eyes.

Nan Bi Yun stood there awkwardly, unsure of how to explain herself.

She knew that she had gravely offended Nan Peiyao this time, but she had been helpless at the time.

Knowing that Nan Peiyao knew such influential people and might become a prominent figure in the future, she regretted having offended her.

“It really wasn’t intentional. Can you forgive me? I was without options!” Nan Bi Yun apologized with a remorseful face.

Nan Peiyao didn’t pay any attention to her, leaving without looking back with the children. Nan Bi Yun wanted to chase after her but didn’t dare and eventually gave up with resentment.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Nan Peiyao ran to the children’s house and pushed open the door of the room where Xu Mu was staying without bothering to greet their parents at the entrance.

In the room, Xu Mu was quietly sitting at the table, gripping a porcelain bowl chipped in several places, drinking some muddy tea.

“Just now…”

Nan Peiyao sucked in a breath, calming herself down, then asked in as composed a tone as she could muster, “What the hell happened?”

“There are some things that it’s not necessarily good to know,” Xu Mu said, looking at Nan Peiyao indifferently.

Nan Peiyao froze, her face conflicted.

Then he turned to look at the standing child, patted his shoulder, and smiled, “You did well just now! I wasn’t wrong about you!”

“Ah… I…!”

The child stammered, not knowing how to respond.

“You saw what happened earlier, right? So why didn’t you act sooner?” Nan Peiyao snapped, angering as she recalled her injuries.

“Didn’t you handle it quite well?” Xu Mu asked lightly, a small smile on his face.

“I——”

Nan Peiyao was furious but didn’t dare to lash out. Having now understood Xu Mu’s importance, she was somewhat apprehensive.

Xu Mu stood up, took out two storage bags, and tossed them to Nan Peiyao.

“One is for you, the other is for Sanwa. Hold onto them for him until his cultivation is sufficient, then give it to him. The resources in the storage bag for you are enough for your cultivation to reach the Foundation Establishment Stage. It also contains some martial methods and my cultivation insights. As for Sanba’s matter, I’ll deal with the White Scale Tribe – they won’t give you a hard time. From now on, the affairs between us are settled.”

Having said that, he waved his hand, motioning for them to leave.

Nan Peiyao opened her mouth to speak but said nothing, picking up the storage bags and leaving.

“Didn’t this guy say he lost everything? Was he lying, or was it something the snake clan just brought?”

Nan Peiyao was puzzled but did not dare to ask, eventually leaving with her doubts.

Not long after, the Snake Clan returned from the White Scale Tribe, and together with Xu Mu, they transformed into an escape light and left.

Without saying goodbye to Nan Peiyao, and without leaving any words behind.

In the time following, with the help of the resources left by Xu Mu, Nan Peiyao not only advanced to the Foundation Establishment Stage but also became an influential figure in the White Scale Tribe. As for Sanwa, after he became of age, he went out to sea alone and never returned.

“How many times have I told you, the situation has been chaotic recently, I asked you not to go out, why won’t you listen! Now look what happened, your sister Xiaomei has been captured, are you happy about this!!”

Zhang Tianluo was so furious her face turned frosty, and she wished she could smack Xu Tianlei to death.

“We, we didn’t expect…” Xu Tianlei lowered his head and mumbled.

“You dare to argue! You ran to someone else’s territory, if they don’t chase you, who else would they chase! I, I should just kill you now!”

Zhang Tianluo raised her hand in anger, aiming to hit Xu Tianlei.

A hand reached out to stop her.

“Enough! Now is not the time to be angry. The priority should be to think about how to save Tianmei!”

Xu Yiren put down his arm and sighed.

“Madam, I, I, I didn’t do it on purpose!”

Xu Tianlei lifted his head, his fair face full of tears.

“Ah.”

Xu Yiren glanced at him and sighed, saying nothing.

“Has Master Shi Yu replied yet?” Zhang Tianluo asked.

“No.”

Xu Yiren shook her head, returning to sit in the main hall.

“We haven’t heard anything about him going into retreat or going out recently! Why is he so slow?” Zhang Tianluo frowned.

“He probably doesn’t want to respond.” Xu Yiren said lightly.

“Doesn’t want to respond? What does that mean? We’ve been sending him so many spirit stones, was that all for nothing!” Zhang Tianluo exclaimed angrily.

“Which is why he’s playing dumb. It probably won’t be long before his disciples come over and say he’s gone out to travel.” Xu Yiren said.

“Damn it!”

Zhang Tianluo was so angry she started pacing around the grand hall.

“Where is your husband? Hasn’t he returned yet?”

“He only left a little over half a month ago, even if he got the news, he wouldn’t make it back in time!”

“So, what do we do now? If too much time passes, Xiaomei might be in danger!”

“They’ve only captured Xiaomei in the hope of gaining some benefits, I don’t think anything will happen in the short term. If worst comes to worst, I’ll go and apologize, and compensate with some more spirit stones!” Xu Yiren said, massaging her forehead.

“You can’t go, the leader of the Three Island Gang has always been hostile. If you go, it’d be like walking into a tiger’s den!” Zhang Tianluo quickly objected.

“I’d better go. This is a mess caused by Tianlei… It’s my duty to make amends! I have talismans left behind by my husband in case of emergency, so I can protect myself!”

“You’ve never handled anything like this, you should let me go! I know what I’m doing!” Xu Yiren retorted.

“Madam, wife, or… or, I’ll go?” Xu Tianlei suggested timidly.

“You go? Haven’t you caused enough trouble!” Zhang Tianluo tried to smack her again in her fury, frightening Xu Tianlei into a hasty retreat.

Just then, a voice came from outside the hall.

“No need to go! I’ve settled the matter!”

At that moment, a young boy in blue, accompanied by a girl in pink, entered the hall from outside.
