Seven-Colored Clam Pearl

Seven-Colored Clam Pearl. Whoosh...

Bubbles churned.

The Sea Market Master, having broken through her bottleneck, was in exceptionally high spirits. Liang Qu felt like a bath sponge, rubbed from top to bottom, left to right, back and forth, practically pressed face-to-face with her for nearly a quarter of an hour.

Having vented her pressure, the azure tentacles finally set Liang Qu down and lightly patted her head.

"Little Water, rest assured. I'll go back and take stock of the inventory now, then fulfill part of my promise first!"

Liang Qu sat down on a rock. "Didn't you say you needed to reorganize the Octopus Clan, then inform the Mermaid King and the Whale Emperor? And would Hai Yun agree?"

"That's why I can only fulfill part of it first. The Octopus King isn't here, so I have a certain degree of authority. Besides, my sister is not entirely without savings. I can't very well make Little Water wait half a year for nothing."

"There's no rush over what was promised." Liang Qu had already waited three months; a little longer made no difference. "You have only just emerged from seclusion, Sea Market Master. Consolidating your strength is what matters. Since the Octopus King was the Octopus Clan's Demon King, his sudden death may stir unrest within the clan. It would be better to use the savings you amassed to improve yourself first. Besides, I haven't been waiting for nothing. One of the Octopus King's Intercourse Arms is already very good..."

"Little Water got a tentacle, but Frog Elder's two webbed paws are empty."

Liang Qu's eyes turned thoughtful.

"Frog Elder doesn't yet know that the Sea Market Master has emerged from seclusion. Delaying for a few days won't hurt..."

"Liang Qing!!!"

Before his words had faded.

A familiar frog voice
