Traveling through the world of beasts, making a living

Chapter 134 The Sea Tribe's Conspiracy

The next day, Mona got up early at dawn.

"Oh."

She stretched her limbs and yawned, then saw Bai Chen also stood up and sorted out his animal skin clothes.

"Bai Chen, tell them to get up quickly."

Everyone got up at Bai Chen's urging.

"Bai Chen, Qing Li, come with me. We'll have something to eat on the way and get to the coast as soon as possible."

When they reached the cave entrance, Mona seemed to remember something and turned back and said:

"Bixi, Wushuang, Chiyan, Jinjue, you must take good care of the children. It's okay to come later. Zhuzhu and Bai Ze, the two of you, ask the birds and beasts along the way. What's going on with the sea tribe recently?"

"Yes, Mother, we will."

"Na, don't worry, we will take good care of the cubs. They are so powerful now, we all look so useless."

Jin Jue picked up Meng Meng and kissed her hard, which made Meng Meng roll his eyes in disgust.

"Stop joking, we're leaving. Make some food for the cubs and follow. Be careful not to get discovered. We're not sure whether the sea tribe is currently in civil unrest or has some other conspiracy, so we must be careful."

"I know, I know. Go quickly, go quickly, don't waste time. If you find anything unusual at the Sea King's place, how will you notify us?"

Bixi asked Mona worriedly. Mona pointed at Zhuzhu and said:

"Didn't I tell you? Zhuzhu is here! Zhuzhu can transform into a little person. He can avoid being seen and heard by others. Moreover, he can hear voices and thoughts that ordinary people can't hear, and he also knows what others are planning. So it's safest for her to deliver the message."

"Okay, I'll listen to you. Be careful on your journey."

"You should also be careful."

Mona, Bai Chen, and Qing Li set out together on the road to the Sea Tribe. At sunset, they arrived at the Sea Tribe's shore. Bai Chen gestured for them to stand aside and observe.

They discovered that Neptune was accompanied by a group of soldiers to greet them, but judging by their posture of being on high alert, it didn't seem like they were welcoming them. Instead, they looked like they were facing an enemy. Or perhaps they were on guard against something?

Aquaman had been waiting eagerly, stretching his neck and looking around, and finally, he saw Mona, and the group hurried forward.

"Mistress, both clan leaders, long time no see."

"Aquaman, long time no see. Is everything okay?"

"Thanks to you! Everything is fine!"

Bai Chen stepped forward, saluted, patted Neptune's shoulder, and asked:

"Huh? Sea King, why don't you see Chief Mu? Didn't you tell him we were coming?"

Aquaman was so tense after being beaten by Bai Chen that he rolled his dark eyes.

"Oh, he has something important to do, so he asked me to come and greet you. Come on, come in, come in."

Aquaman pushed the sea water apart with his hands, and a road immediately appeared. Everyone followed the road to the bottom of the sea.

Bai Chen turned around and gestured for Mona to look at the water and the fish on either side. The fish were all very small, not as large as before, and they seemed lifeless, drifting on the surface rather than swimming. This was very strange. Furthermore, the water didn't seem to be moving, as if it were still.

Bai Chen asked first, "Sea King, what's the condition of the sea water? What about the fish in it? The last time I came here, I saw them all jumping around. Why are they all pale now, as if they are about to die?"

"Haha, Chief, you're joking. What could possibly be wrong with our seawater? We've been making salt using the witch's recipe. These fish might be suffering from the weather, it's too hot, and they don't want to move. Maybe they're just lazy."

Mona, Qingli, and Baichen exchanged a glance. They understood each other. Aquaman's explanation spoke for itself.

Bai Chen walked forward, walking side by side with Mona. With a slight gesture, Qingli immediately followed, sandwiching Mona in the middle. They followed behind Aquaman side by side.

Aquaman took a look and continued:

"Miko-sama, why are the three of you here together? Aren't your cubs and the other beast-husbands here with you?"

The three of them exchanged glances again, and Mona said with a smile:

"No, they've all dispersed. They've been assigned to each continent. They have to do what they can. The cubs are training with the Great Elder. Even I don't know where they are. Are they having a blast out there?"

"Oh, so, can we contact them and come over to play with the sea tribe together?"

"I've already sent word that they can't come because of the reconstruction of the Northern Continent. Chi Yan is the young patriarch of the Phoenix Clan, and he has to take on the task of reconstruction. The Eastern Continent is Bixi's hometown, and he has to watch over it. It's harvesting and sowing right now, and he doesn't have the ability to clone himself. Wu Shuang is from the Western Continent, and he has to watch over it there too. So you see, he can't leave at all!"

Mona explained that the construction of each continent was closely related to the beast husband. Her words were sincere, and so, Aquaman believed her.

"Okay, we're here. My lady, please go sit in my Sea King's Palace for a while."

Aquaman issues a grand invitation

"Okay. This place is still some distance away from your Sea King Palace, so let's go to Chief Mu's house first."

Mona used the opponent's force to counter the opponent's force and used words to drive home the point.

"Hey... Chief Mu is not at home, not at home. Let's go directly to my Sea King Palace. Go, go, go, go."!

Several soldiers surrounded the three of them. They threatened them, signaling them to go to the Sea King's Palace. Mona knew there was a reason for this. The Sea King's move was also very strange. She then said:

"Okay, then let's go to the Sea King first. As the king of the sea tribe, we should go to the Sea King's residence first. Then we will visit Chief Mu."

"What are you talking about, Lady Priestess? Sea people, you can go anywhere. This was agreed upon when we formed an alliance. Don't be so formal."!

As soon as the Sea King finished speaking, several people arrived at the gate of the Sea King's Palace. The two guards standing at the gate bowed in unison.

"Aquaman, you're back?"

The Sea King nodded and introduced them: "These are the witches and the chief of the Myriad Beast Tribe. When you see them, you should do the same as I did."

"Yes. I see you, Miko-sama, and I see you, Chief."

"You're welcome. You're welcome."

Mona waved casually, and the three of them entered the Sea King's Palace. Once they arrived at the hall, they all sat down with the Sea King.

Mona's eyes darted around as she carefully surveyed the Sea King's Palace. She had lived here before, and her memory of it was still fresh. She wanted to find some clues from the changes here.

Bai Chen was also looking around and observing Aquaman, trying to judge from the slightest change in Aquaman's words and actions whether he was acting like the previous Aquaman or the Aquaman who had been replaced by someone else.
