"What are your intentions?"
Mu Qing questioned the Sea Consort before him.
This Mermaid King clearly possessed the strength of a late-stage Supreme and could even leave the Mermaid Kingdom, yet she had concealed herself and secretly followed them.
"There's no need to be so wary. I merely wish to cooperate with you. After all, among the outsiders who approached my kingdom, only the two of you are still alive and standing before me." The Sea Consort smiled with pursed lips, but her words were exceedingly dangerous!
Others had approached this place before, but the Sea Consort had dealt with them all!
Mu Qing grew even more vigilant. He probed, "So because we weren't killed, we've passed? We're qualified to cooperate with you?"
He was considering whether to directly use Time Stop and take An Shaomu away from this place.
Though he did not know why the Mermaid King before them could leave the Mermaid Kingdom, she presumably could not stay away for too long or travel too far.
Even if there truly were no such restrictions, after using Time Stop, Mu Qing was confident he could hide with An Shaomu and avoid being discovered.
As for the cooperation the Sea Consort spoke of, Mu Qing scoffed inwardly.
The Sea Consort was a native creature of the Tianze Universe, while they were outsiders—invaders!
The entire Tianze Universe had been turned into this state by the upper echelons of the three factions. The Mermaid Kingdom had likewise been forcibly transformed into a checkpoint leading to the Third Realm. To put it bluntly, the Tianze Universe had already become a prison.
The upper echelons of the three factions had committed such excessive acts. Mu Qing did not believe that the native creatures here would hold not even the slightest hostility toward people
