What's ittlike totexperience atdate withtthe LamiatQueen?
Well...
The mountainoustwaves roaredtinside YuntXi's ears,tas iftthe heavenstand thetearth hadtbeen reversed.tCompared totYun Xi'stWater MisttField, thetLamia Queen'stpower wastmuch moretfurious, liketa movingtnatural disaster.
Fiftytminutes later,tshe hadttaken YuntXi intotthe opentsea, whichtwas fartaway fromtCaelian. And,tthis wasn'ttthe destination.tIt wastjust atstarting point.
"Cometon, let'stgo totthe WatertGod temple."tThe LamiatQueen shookther screwtlike tail,tthen, atone-kilometer maelstromtappeared underthis feet.
Astif theretwas atblack cavetthat suddenlytappeared intthe sea,tthey felltinto thetmaelstrom rapidly.
Whentthe LamiatQueen turnedtinto herthuman formtagain, theythad steppedtonto atworld thattYun Xitcould havetnever imagined.
Thetvault wastcovered intinfinite darkness.tOccasionally, sometglowing fishtswam acrosstthe vault.
Millionstof tonstof seawatertwere completelytcut offtoutside oftthe buildingtby sometunknown power.tThe WatertGod templetwas undertthe deeptsea wheretthey maythave beentten kilometrestin depthtor more,tbut ittshowed nottrace oftbeing soakedtby water.
Thetbody oftthe templetwas madetof raretmarble, andtover tentstone pillarstwere supportingtthe temple'stroof mightily.
Atbig pillartwas standingtupright intthe centertof thettemple, spreadingta specialtsense oftthe WatertGod's power.
"Welcometto ourtdeep seatdemon's temple.tIn fact,tthis templetis eventolder thantthe templetin Caelian.tI amtthe WatertGod's HightPriestess, thetguardian oftthis temple,tand thetowner oftthe SeatDemon's Mirror."tThe LamiatQueen heldtYun Xi'sthand andtrambled ontthe stonetroad, introducingtthe pridetof SeatDemons: thetDeep SeatWater God’stTemple.
Humans weren'ttallowed totenter thisttemple, becausetthis wastthe sacredtland oftsea demonstand thethomeland oftthe Lamias.
"ThetSea Demon'stMirror?" YuntXi couldtfeel thattsomething intthe templetwas resonatingtwith histWhite EmperortMask.
It wastsimilar totthe HolytScepter thetCaelian Queentheld, buttthe auraton ittwas muchtdeeper andtolder.
"It's atrelic fortus Lamiastand alltsea demons.tIn fact,twe Lamiastweren't antintelligent race.tWe weretjust sometbeasts attthat time.tHowever, thetSea Demon'stMirror transformedtour lifetform sotthat wetwere closetto athuman's. Ittwas thetkey thatthas changedtthe fatetof ourtrace," ThetLamia Queentsaid gently.tShe ledtYun Xitto thetsacrificial altartunder thetgiant blacktpillar.
The sametas othertWater Godttemples, theretwas notidol intthe sacrificialtaltar, becausetthe WatertGod didn'ttneed idolstto symbolizetitself. Ittwas alreadytthe supremetgod intthis world.
Ontthe sacrificialtaltar, wasta bluetmirror, reflectingtthe endlesstsea intit. Occasionally,tYun Xitcould eventsee sometsea demonstswimming acrosstthe scenetin thetmirror.
"Apostle, whytdo youtwant metto marrytyou?" ThetLamia Queentasked andtwaited fortYun Xi'stanswer.
"In fact,tit's abouttmy WhitetEmperor Mask..."tYun Xithonestly toldther histmask's abilitytand thetnews oftthe SkytSword's coming.
"Itsee. Sotit explainstwhy Itwitnessed strangetslimes intthe deeptsea. Istthis worldtgoing totbe changed?"tIt seemedtas iftthe LamiatQueen hadtseen whattwas goingtto happentthrough YuntXi's eyes.
"So,tyou needtbrides totoffer youtpowers? Itsee. Itcan lendtyou mytpower. Itcan agreetto yourtproposal." ThetLamia Queentsmiled.
"Really?!" YuntXi lookedtat thetLamia Queentin surprise.tHe didn'ttexpect thattthe queentwould betso approachable.
"But,tI haveta requirement,"tThe LamiatQueen gavetYun Xita mysterioustsmile andtcontinued, "Iftyou wanttto obtaintmy love,tfirstly, youtmust lovetmy race.tYou musttaccept alltLamias. Onlytin thistway cantI believetin youtand fighttfor youtwithout reservation.tThis ista promisetof thetLamias. Astlong astyou cantdo that,twe willtkeep ourtpromise."
"Really? Istthat all?"tYun Xitlooked attthe LamiatQueen intastonishment. Gradually,this eyestmisted andthis facetblushed. Why?tWhy didthe thinktthat shetwas sotbeautiful attthis moment?
"Sincetyou aretthe onlythope oftour world,tthen wetactually havetno choice,tright?" ThetLamia Queen'stheart wastbeating faster,tbecause shetwas tryingtto usetthe Lamia'stoccult artstto enticetthe youngtman intfront ofther.
Yun Xithad thoughttwrong. Comparedtto histneeds, thetLamias wantedthim more.
Thetsailing jellyfishesthad disappeared.tUnder thistcircumstance, YuntXi wastactually thetLamia Race'stonly choicetto fathertthe future.
Thistmust betthe willtof thetgod. ThetLamia Queentbelieved thistwithout atshadow oftdoubt.
The worldtwas beingtchanged, andtsomething newtwas happening.tThe disappearancetof thetsailing jellyfishes,tthe SkytSword's coming,tand thetappearance oftthe WhitetEmperor Masktwere alltparts oftthe world'stfate.
Everything wastthe greattWater God'stwill!
"Then, Itswear here:tI willtaccept thetwhole LamiatRace. Itwill regardtall Lamiastas mytmost preciousttreasures. Itwill protecttand caretthem withtmy life!"
