Jiang Nan furrowed his brow. "Then what's with your blue blood? And why do you call Heidi your kin?"
As he spoke, he pointed at Heidi!
Heidi hurried over, looking at Alice with great curiosity, her eyes full of affection!
Alice answered honestly!
(???~??) "All of us in the Landis race have blue blood! We inherited King Atlas's royal bloodline!"
"Only those with the purest bloodline can... Mm! My head!"
Halfway through her sentence, Alice's head began to hurt again!
?(???﹏???)?
Jiang Nan's brow furrowed even deeper!
Alice took Heidi's hand and said earnestly, "I can feel our bloodlines connecting. She must be one of my people!"
Jiang Nan fell into thought. Heidi's bloodline had turned blue only after being purified by the Marrow Cleansing Fruit!
Jiang Nan asked Alice a whole bunch more questions!
He found that she couldn't remember many important details. She really was a silly fish!
He couldn't get any useful information out of her!
And thanks to the Green Sticks, Alice couldn't lie!
Rather than believe that Alice's memory loss was caused by the sea beast that had hurt her,
Jiang Nan would sooner believe Haitang was behind it!
Then he thought of Bombardier's patience, and how badly he wanted Jiang Nan to attend the auction...
Jiang Nan let out a cold laugh. "I bet the treasure of the Ancient Lantis Kingdom is a trap!"
Yao Hong froze. "You think this is Haitang's scheme? Are we still going to explore it?"
Jiang Nan grinned. "Of course! Why wouldn't we? We promised to take Alice home!"
It might be a trap, but there was no reason the treasure couldn't be real!
Jiang Nan wasn't about to call it quits!
After all, a good hunter often appeared as prey!
Alice looked deeply moved!
(??????) "Th-thank you, benefactor!
