Chapter 1155 Xuanyu 11
“Seeing your mother’s loving heart, I’ll give you a second choice,” Tan You said, twirling her fingers. “You’re familiar with that trench, aren’t you? When I was seriously injured by Sang Lin and was about to leave the trench, I found you guarding it from the outside.”

Yin Yue tensed up: "You...you know?"

"Of course I know you're waiting outside. At first, I went to the trench every day to check the situation, then gradually it became once every two or three days or half a month, until later it was once a year."

Tan You chuckled: "Seeing how patient you are, how about this..."

She pondered for a moment: "You will face the wall and reflect on your sins for a thousand years in the trench where you ambushed me. You shall not step out of the trench for a thousand years."

Yin Yue collapsed to the ground. Wasn't that just going to jail? But she had no choice. Was she really going to die?
She bit her lip until it bled: "I will face the wall in the trench for a thousand years to reflect on my mistakes. I only beg you to have mercy on my parents. I did everything by myself. They know nothing about it."

“You’re quite filial,” Tan You smiled. “In my opinion, I should have ended your life with one strike, but your parents are indeed full of love. However, you can escape the death penalty but not the punishment. Compared to your life, it’s just a thousand years of imprisonment. You’ve ultimately come out on top.”

Yin Yue bowed her head and knelt down: "Yes, thank you for your mercy, Your Highness."

Yu Yan shrank back, hoping Tan You wouldn't see her. Tan You ignored her, and simply picked up Yin Yue, saying, "I've finished my business, so I'll take my leave now."

"As for this little maid, she is Jin Jiao's maid. You can decide what to do with her yourselves."

Yin Zheng and Hua Ling watched as Tan You took Yin Yue away. Without even having time to apologize to Sang Lin, they chased after Tan You and left the Dragon Palace. Less than an incense stick's time after Tan You left, the formation that had bound everyone suddenly broke, and Tan You could no longer be found.

The Queen glared at Yu Yan resentfully, but as the mother-in-law, she couldn't very well overstep her bounds and discipline her daughter-in-law's maid. So she said curtly, "Jin Jiao, she's your maid. Deal with her as you see fit."

Yu Yan tugged at Jin Jiao's skirt: "Miss, Miss, I've been with you since I was little... I've always been loyal to you..."

Jin Jiao was upset. It was true that she had been schemed against by Yin Yue, but wasn't it all because Yu Yan wanted to seize Xuan Yu's Starfall Grass? If it weren't for Yu Yan's efforts to grab resources, would she and Sang Lin have ended up like this?

Sang Lin is now seriously injured and unconscious, and she has been rejected by the Dragon King and Queen. As for her clan... she glanced at Jin Sheng and her mother. Where could she go back to her clan?
“Yu Yan, I know you are loyal to me, but His Highness and I offended Xuan Yu in order to fight for the Starfall Grass for you.” Jin Jiao hardened her heart: “You can either go back to the clan with my father, or you can spend a thousand years reflecting on your mistakes in the Dragon Palace’s water dungeon.”

Yu Yan was dejected, and after a long while she said, "This servant chooses the second option."

She didn't even need to think about what awaited her if she returned to the merfolk. If she could reflect on her actions in the Dragon Palace's water prison, at least she would still be alive.

Once they return to the merfolk clan...

Jin Jiao pinched the bridge of her nose: "Then let's leave it at that."

The Queen snorted coldly and turned to leave. She needed to check on Sang Lin's condition, and Jin Jiao hurriedly followed. Her only hope now was to appease Sang Lin; as long as he was willing to protect her, the Dragon King and the Queen couldn't really send her away.

Sang Yue lost interest in continuing the birthday banquet, which ended rather abruptly. The guests dispersed, but at the same time, Xuan Yu's name resounded throughout the entire sea race, and even seemed to be spreading to the human race. When Tan You underwent her tribulation, many people watched, but Tan You had set up an array around her. Those who could step into the array were all cultivators with a certain level of cultivation, and those watching from afar couldn't even clearly see Tan You's figure.

Later, Tan You forced the onlookers to make a vow to heaven and earth, so the aquatic and merfolk were naturally unaware of Tan You's situation.

If the aquatic or merfolk tribes knew this, perhaps Tan You's revenge today wouldn't have gone so smoothly.

Tan You dragged Yin Yue towards the trench, with Yin Zheng and Hua Ling close behind. Upon arriving at the trench, Tan You casually tossed Yin Yue back to the place where she had previously recuperated, then formed hand seals, quickly trapping Yin Yue inside the formation.

Yin Zheng and Hua Ling, who were a step behind, changed their expressions drastically. Hua Ling was especially anxious: "Weren't we supposed to be reflecting on our mistakes here? Why are we using an array now?"

Tan You curled her lips in a sneer: "Let her stay here in seclusion to reflect on her mistakes, and then you keep sending her all sorts of cultivation supplies? Is this seclusion or reflection? If you're going to be in jail, you should act like you're in jail."

Yin Zheng's eyes slowly narrowed. He was no longer suppressed by the formation and was unharmed. Tan You, however, was merely a sixth-tier Xuanwei Merfolk, and not yet skilled in close combat…

After thinking it over, Yin Zheng launched an attack on Tan You without saying a word. Just as he unleashed his magic, a bolt of lightning struck down from mid-air, knocking Yin Zheng unconscious.

Hua Ling suddenly looked up. Just as the heavenly lightning struck, a formation around them slowly lit up. Even though this formation didn't suppress their spiritual power or imprison their physical bodies, they had already stepped into the enemy's formation. How could they get out?
She was a pragmatic person, and immediately bowed to Tan You: "Yin Zheng is just overly protective of his daughter, Your Highness, please don't take it to heart. We were just a little anxious seeing Yin Yue all alone here..."

"So you think you can just kill someone if you get impatient?" Tan You sneered, kicking Yin Zheng aside in mid-air. "But it doesn't matter. Heavenly lightning has eyes anyway, so I welcome you to provoke me as much as you want."

Yin Yue lay prostrate on the array, desperately begging for mercy: "Mother, Mother, please don't be impulsive..."

She never expected that the so-called "thousand years of reflection in the trench" would actually be a thousand years of reflection within Tan You's formation. What she didn't expect even more was that her father, Yin Zheng, was struck down by Tan You and rendered unconscious before he could even touch the hem of her clothes.

This woman is truly terrifying.

Hua Ling choked up. She carefully checked Yin Zheng's breathing, and when she confirmed that he was only seriously injured and still breathing, Hua Ling's heart finally settled down.

Only by living can there be a future.

Tan You didn't want to waste her breath arguing with them. Seeing that Hua Ling had no intention of provoking her, she scoffed and quickly left the trench. Shortly after she left, a group of pursuers arrived.

She had humiliated the Dragon Clan and the Merfolk so badly today that both clans hated her to the core. Now, many other races wanting to curry favor with the Dragon Clan were keeping a close eye on her.

Taking advantage of the celestial phenomena, Tan You successfully escaped their capture, and even had time to refine weapons.

The so-called refining process was very simple. Her blue stone chessboard was, after all, an ordinary object. Now that she had the essence of Gui water, Tan You incorporated the essence of Gui water into the blue stone chessboard.
