Chapter 300: Future Patriarch

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Liao Ning’s knowledge of the Sea Demons was limited, with all her information coming from the system.

Through Mika’s introduction, she discovered that since the disappearance of the previous patriarch, the Sea Demons had split into two factions. One faction, led by an elder, insisted on waiting for the return of the Sea Demon team leader, who possessed the strongest ability among the Sea Demons and could purify the toxins in the Deep-sea Planet’s seawater. The other faction, led by the rebel named Quidy, a cousin of the previous team leader from a branch family, lacked the purification ability of the patriarch. Instead, he attempted to control the Sea Demons and the entire Deep-sea Planet using various potions.

Quidy had managed to obtain the sacred object of the Sea Demon race, the Heart Crystal, which allowed him to purify a portion of the seawater toxins. He harbored ambitions of becoming the future patriarch.

Mika’s words revealed a shocking revelation: the elder’s poisoning was linked to Quidy. Mika expressed his disdain for Quidy’s actions, revealing that he had even sold many Sea Demons to merchants from other planets to secure his power. These Sea Demons were subjected to torture, death, and were treated as commodities or delicacies. Mika was fervent in his belief that Quidy deserved severe consequences for his actions.

Liao Ning’s gaze shifted to the ailing elder on the bed. Her complexion was pallid, and her face had an unnatural purple hue. Although she was breathing, her condition was critical. It was evident that if the poison wasn’t neutralized soon, she wouldn’t survive.

Mika’s words ignited a fury within Liao Ning. Her anger wasn’t solely because of her Sea Demon heritage but also because she couldn’t tolerate the malevolence of someone harming their own kind.

From her pocket, Liao Ning retrieved a pill and handed it to Mika. “Administer the medicine to the elder first, and let’s see if our antidote is effective.”

With great care, Mika unsealed the bag containing the pill, releasing a fragrant medicinal aroma that permeated the entire castle. The enticing scent drew the attention of many Sea Demon clansmen, who gathered at the door out of curiosity.

Mika hesitated for a moment before gently placing the pill in the elder’s mouth. However, even after more than ten minutes had passed, the fragrant aroma of the medicine had dissipated, and the elder showed no signs of awakening.

The room was filled with an air of anticipation just moments ago, but it had now transformed into a sea of disappointment. Several Sea Demons discreetly wiped away their tears, their cries slowly echoing through the room.

“Elder, elder, what’s happening?” Suddenly, a small voice from a young Sea Demon pierced through the sobbing.

The elder convulsed with violent coughing, expelling blackened blood.

“Are you spies sent by Quidy? Do you intend to harm the elder?” Mika’s accusing glare was directed at Liao Ning and Zhou Ling.

Instantly, a group of guards rushed in, forming a tight circle around the two newcomers.

But just as a guard was about to apprehend them, an elderly voice cut through the tension. “Is that the Patriarch? Has the Patriarch returned?”

All eyes turned towards the elder, their expressions shifting from disbelief to hope. The elder had managed to sit up against the headboard, her face flushed with color, and her once lifeless blue eyes now sparkled with vitality.

“Elder, you’re awake?” Mika leaned eagerly against the bed, his gaze fixed on her.

However, the elder’s attention was drawn to Liao Ning. Her perceptive blue eyes seemed to pierce through everything.

Only then did Mika quickly order the guards to step back, and he approached with Liao Ning and Zhou Ling. “These two are merchants from the Planet Empire. It was their elven antidote that saved you.”

“The elven antidote?” The elder smiled warmly. “Indeed, it’s the elven antidote, isn’t it, Miss?”

The elder regarded Liao Ning with benevolence and extended her hand. Liao Ning promptly reached out to hold it.

Tears welled in the elder’s eyes. “Good child, good child.”

However, aware of their audience, she refrained from saying more.

Turning to Mika, the elder requested, “This lady seems skilled in medicine. I’d like her to examine if any poison remains.”

Simultaneously, she tightened her grip on Liao Ning’s hand discreetly. Liao Ning responded promptly, “I would prefer to examine the elder privately. My medical skills are a closely guarded secret. Please allow us some privacy.”

Mika hesitated to depart, but he reluctantly complied when the elder nodded in agreement. Respecting her wishes, he exited the room along with everyone else.

With all others gone, the elder turned her gaze towards Zhou Ling, and Liao

Ning swiftly vouched for him, “He’s a reliable individual.”

The elder nodded and extended her hand. A transparent crystal sphere swiftly formed around them.

“Don’t worry,” she reassured Liao Ning, gently stroking her hand. “The crystal barrier provides soundproofing. Our conversation will remain private, my future young chief..”
