Xu Changqing was astonished. "An additional price?"
Xuan Zhu explained, "I am no ordinary mermaid. By your human standards, I am a princess of the royal family."
"If you wish to form a matrimonial bond with me, you must first present betrothal gifts, then marry me properly with a matchmaker and formal rites."
The moment those words were spoken, everyone present was dumbfounded.

"Therefore, either I can only meet my partner occasionally, or they must be willing to stay in Profound Heart City."

Xuan Zhu's beautiful eyes shifted. "Immortal elders, do you have any further questions?"
Xu Changqing waved a hand. "We can discuss the betrothal gifts later. Arrange the service
