Chapter 591 The matter was settled
Yu Xia followed Metis back to his base.

Metis held her tightly and wouldn't let go. Silver Fang tried to fight him several times, but she had to give up because of Metis's hold.

Having had enough of the day's events, Yu Xia remembered her promise to Metis, so she asked Silver Fang Bello to take the twins back first.

“I think I should switch my powers with Little Manta Ray,” Metis teased Yu Xia. “Did you see his stinky face? It’s colder than the frost I’ve conjured.”

Seeing that Yu Xia ignored him, Metis pinched the back of her neck. "Asleep?"

Yu Xia hummed twice.

Metis chuckled, stroked her hair for a moment, and whispered in her ear, "Don't rush to sleep, we still have things to do."

".Um?"

The orca sentinels escorted the two back to their base.

Yu Xia sat in the middle of the living room, surrounded by a group of orca sentinels. The sentinels were eager and looking at her with anticipation.

They also wanted to experience what it felt like to be directly blessed by the highest royal family.

However, since the little princess came back directly with the leader, and the leader went to take a bath, they can probably only receive the little princess's blessing from the leader.

While the leader was taking a bath, they still wanted to try and win him over.

Even if that doesn't work, it's still good to see the little princess more often.

The orca sentinels released all their spiritual forms, which shrank considerably in size and snuggled into Yu Xia's arms, rubbing against her affectionately. They were a little more polite than when they had surrounded her that day.

Yu Xia bent one leg and put it on the chair, propping her head up as she looked at the group of orcas.

She didn't quite understand what they meant, thinking they were just watching over her on behalf of Metis.

There's really no need to worry about her running away; she's already prepared to establish a spiritual connection with Metis and bless them.

Compared to the internal strife among the sea creatures, the matter of the polluted zone is the most important right now. After a day of meetings and negotiations with other factions, she understands that she needs stronger support.

"Your Highness."

An orca sentinel brought her a bowl of steaming soup.

Yu Xia lowered her eyes and asked, "What is this?"

"It's for sobering you up. The boss told me to cook it for you," the sentry said, scratching his head.

At this moment, Metis came out of the bathroom, casually dried his wet hair with a towel, threw the towel aside, and walked towards Yu Xia.

"What are you all still doing here?" Metis asked, glancing at the group of orca pups.

The orca sentries, unlike their usual jovial selves, appeared somewhat uneasy.

Metis knew what they were thinking and said, "Get out of here, all of you."

The sentries wanted to stay a little longer and did not leave.

Seeing that they were lingering and wouldn't leave, Metis went up and slapped each of them, saying, "If you don't want to sleep, get out and patrol outside."

"No, no, no, boss, let's go back to sleep!"

The sentries immediately disappeared from Yu Xia's sight, leaving only one sentry carrying soup who was still glancing at Metis.

Metis took the hangover soup from his hand and patted him on the head. "What, you want to keep watch for us?"

The sentry's eyes lit up. "Okay."

"Get out!" Metis kicked him in the butt.

The sentry, clutching his backside, slunk away, but still clinging to the doorframe and peering out, he pleaded, "Boss, if you can't handle it..."

Metis hurled a hockey puck at them, eliciting a chorus of screams. The door closed, and silence fell instantly.

"Ignore these brats." Metis held the soup to Yu Xia's lips. "Drink this so you can sleep better."

After saying that, he took the soup back, saying, "It seems a little hot."

He tasted it himself first, then blew cold air onto the soup, saying, "That's good now."

Yu Xia stared at him but didn't drink.

Metis: "Drink this and you won't have a headache tomorrow. Come on, drink some."

Yu Xia noticed several bright red wounds on his bare upper body, probably inflicted during his fight with Farrell.

Sea creatures all have the ability to heal themselves, but after a whole night, his wounds still looked quite serious, with flesh and blood turned outwards. However, the bleeding had stopped, indicating that the injury was more severe when it occurred.

"Why are you so picky?" Metis added two sugar cubes to the hangover soup, stirring as he grumbled, "You're a picky eater, and you can't hold your liquor. You're so small, you'd be blown away by the wind. I don't think Little White Pig and the others will take good care of you. Never mind, I'll talk to you about replacing you tomorrow."

"Alright, it's quite sweet, drink it." Metis held the hangover soup to Yu Xia's lips again.

Yu Xia wasn't unwilling to drink; she was just in a semi-conscious state. Under Metis's gaze, she slowly came back to her senses and began to drink it sip by sip from his hand.

Metis laughed and said, "That's more like it."

He watched as the little princess finished the hangover soup. Seeing her dazed expression, he pinched her cheek, wrung out a towel to wipe her face, then wiped her hands and feet.

He didn't take care of anyone, thinking that was enough. He used a towel to solve the washing and grooming problem and then took the little princess to the bedroom.

Yu Xia only realized what was happening after sitting on the bed, and scratched Metis with her claws.

"Hiss!" Metis half-squatted in front of her, grabbed her wrist, saw her mutated sharp claws, and said, "Why have you mutated? This place is safe, there's no need to fight."

Seeing his face so close, Yu Xia was about to swat him with her claws again.

Metis gripped both of her hands, staring into her wide, clear eyes, which held a somewhat dazed look, realizing she was probably still drunk.

He held her hands with one hand and slipped the other under her knees, placing her on the bed. He pulled the blanket over her, covering her completely except for her head.

Yu Xia turned her head to look at him with extremely slow reaction, "...?"

Metis lay down next to her, and seeing that she still had her eyes open, said, "Why don't you want to sleep yet?"

After a while, Yu Xia said, "I still have things to do, I haven't finished yet."

Metis propped his head up and looked at her. "What can you do like this? We'll get things done tomorrow when you're clear-headed."

Yu Xia took her hand out from under the covers, raised her index finger towards Metis, and focused a bit of spiritual energy on it, then pointed it at his nose.

Insufficient mental strength, unable to connect.

Yu Xia looked at the finger in confusion, then gathered more spiritual power and poked it at his face again.

Metis was amused by her actions and nudged her hand, saying, "Alright, little princess, go to sleep. There's no rush."

“No.” Yu Xia moved closer to Metis, placed her hand on the back of Metis’s head, and pulled him forcefully towards her. “This should work.”

Metis's face was almost touching the tip of her nose, and the scent of pheromones mixed with a faint smell of alcohol filled his nostrils, causing his breathing to slow down involuntarily.

Yu Xia stroked the back of his head with her hand, her mental energy swirling around it, preparing to probe into his mind.

Metis stared intently at her, his throat bobbing frequently, the sound of him swallowing particularly clear in the quiet night.

"You are like this"

"Ok?"

Metis placed his hand on her face, his thumb stroking her soft cheek, his breathing growing heavier and hotter. "It's either Celius who dies or I who die."
