Ming Yue let out a soft chuckle from her throat. This foolish fish, did she really think she could escape?
She no longer concealed her emotions, her eyes seeming to hold a storm that swallowed them both, carrying them away to an unknown shore.
Logically, a fish should have decent stamina, but did ghosts feel tired?
Xing Yuan tried to sound the horn of counterattack several times, but it was all without a proper beginning or end, merely serving to make the one with the advantage feel more accomplished.
Xing Yuan was dejected. Since she couldn't resist, why not enjoy it?
Xing Yuan was self-hypnotizing. It was fine, she was actually very capable, just not as capable as her sister. Yes, that was it!
However, when she woke up the next day, her waist aching, while Ming Yue sat there as if nothing had happened, handling official business, she couldn't help but feel a sense of defeat!
Why was she so exhausted, like a fish, yet Ming Yue showed no reaction? It was simply too unreasonable!
Sensing Xing Yuan's resentful gaze, Ming Yue generously gave her a reassuring look.
Of course, in Xing Yuan's eyes, it was perceived as provocation.
She sat at the table, fiercely biting into her bread, her small fangs exposed, unashamedly displaying her ferocity.
Ming Yue simply shook her head helplessly, thinking Xing Yuan was throwing a childish tantrum.
This fish had grown up, so why was she still so childish?
Although she quite liked this fish's willful and childish demeanor, she was more eager to see her intelligent side.
Xing Yuan noticed Ming Yue's gaze and let out an arrogant snort, but her expression was filled with joy.
Sister was secretly watching her! But sister could watch openly; she didn't mind.
Xing Yuan felt the thoughts bubbling up in her mind and thought she was like a pervert!
Soon, she shook her head again, negating her thought. She wasn't a pervert! She was a beautiful mermaid!
Ming Yue could have easily removed the marks on her face, but she deliberately didn't, instead parading around in front of Xing Yuan with a clear bite mark.
Although Xing Yuan suffered more in the end, seeing the obvious bite mark on Ming Yue's face, she couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt. It seemed... she had been a bit too rough last night.
No! She was the one who had made the mistake first. She had to have her own principles.
Just as Xing Yuan's heart was in turmoil, Ming Yue leaned her face against Xing Yuan's lap, her voice soft and delicate as if she were coquettishly complaining, "A Yuan, look, the mark you left hasn't faded yet!"
"If I become disfigured, A Yuan will have to take responsibility for me!"
"Okay, I'll take responsibility!" Xing Yuan nodded solemnly.
What were principles? Did she even have such a thing?
Sister was her only principle.
Ming Yue smiled heartily, then, as a reward, kissed Xing Yuan's lips.
"A Yuan is so sweet!"
"Sister is also very sweet," Xing Yuan whispered, her ear tips instantly turning pink.
Xing Yuan dared to guarantee that she was definitely not the one who was shy; she was just a fish.
After a bout of playful banter, they exchanged intimate words only lovers would share, and then moved on to serious matters.
Xing Yuan played with Ming Yue's hair as she said, "Do you think they'll agree?"
"The chances are quite high, but their interests are intertwined, and they won't believe my words based solely on my few sentences. So, this should still be a protracted battle," Ming Yue frowned.
She couldn't force everyone to understand and agree with her ideas, but some things still had to be done. And as she said, their interests were intertwined; her subordinates and the surviving relatives also had their own entanglements of interest.
She could control their bodies, even obliterate them, but she couldn't control their thoughts. Even with her strength, this would be an extremely troublesome matter.
"It's okay, I'm with you, sister! If it really doesn't work, we can just force it. If people die, they'll have no choice but to obey," Xing Yuan said indifferently.
"Humans have always been complex creatures, unchanging throughout the ages. I know you are very strong, but didn't you tell me before? This world is undergoing an advancement. I think if too many people die, it might also have some impact on this advancement!" Ming Yue patiently explained.
In her eyes, Xing Yuan was just a fish who knew almost nothing about humans, so her somewhat incorrect views naturally needed to be corrected by her in a timely manner.
"That's true." Xing Yuan fell into thought.
If she could help a world successfully advance, she could extort a large sum of merit from the Heavenly Dao!
Merit was extremely important for any kind of being, and she was no exception.
"Alright, don't overthink it. Leave it all to me. I already have a plan," Ming Yue said, rubbing Xing Yuan's head with a doting and incredibly gentle expression.
Xing Yuan wasn't entirely happy with this treatment, but since she could be lazy, she turned a blind eye. After all, she trusted her sister.
While the various factions were still arguing without reaching a conclusion, Ming Yue received a piece of news about an old enemy.
The former protagonist, the "Dragon Ascending the Heavens" type of male lead, was now within the Demon Extermination Alliance, and held a high-ranking position. This was indeed befitting of his protagonist's destiny.
The moment Ming Yue received the news, her resentment instantly overwhelmed her reason. But before she could fly into a rage, Xing Yuan stopped her.
How could she be excluded from an act of dismembering an enemy?
"Sister, didn't you say you wanted to help them clean up? Why not start with this person? You have a personal vendetta, but you can take this opportunity to show them your strength. I believe with your abilities, revenge will be effortless."
Ming Yue was puffed up by Xing Yuan's adoring gaze and felt that she had a point.
It would be bad to ruin her plan for such a scumbag, but she could change the plan.
She sent a formal invitation to the Demon Extermination Alliance, stating that she wished to visit them in person.
Her etiquette was impeccable, and her words were extremely courteous. They had no reason to refuse, but instinctively, they could sense Ming Yue's ill intentions.
Ming Yue originally didn't want to bring Xing Yuan, but Xing Yuan pestered her so much that she couldn't even leave the house without her. Reluctantly, she had to go to someone else's home together.
Since she intended to display her strength, Ming Yue naturally wouldn't be polite. She brought half of her powerful subordinates, under the guise of mutual exchange and communication, and brutally defeated those who, upon gaining power, looked down on everyone.
However, this was just an appetizer. Ming Yue's true objective was not to strike them, but to find the protagonist, Long Zhen.
She had inquired beforehand. The reason this person could gain a foothold in the Demon Extermination Alliance was his strength.
