After becoming top guides, they are obsessed with

Chapter 594 Would Your Highness be willing to be their Queen?
She didn't want to, and couldn't, continue pretending to know nothing; she had to take on the responsibilities that came with this identity.

She didn't want to be pushed forward by them like that, as if she could easily sit in the highest position of the sea tribe without doing anything.

If she ignores all of this, there will be a greater price to pay.

Just like when she was the Great Ivi in ​​the Holy City, she was pushed forward by the rules of the Holy City. As long as she listened to them, she could take it all as it should be and that's what she should do.

She believed in Bello's Silver Fang's loyalty, but also believed they had ulterior motives.

"No, Your Highness!" Bello stepped forward and grabbed her shoulder, his voice urgent. "I will not betray the King, nor will I betray Your Highness. If the King doesn't give me that position, I will absolutely not try to take it, but... but..."

Yu Xia listened patiently to his explanation, but when he stopped halfway through, she asked, "But what?"

Bello couldn't say it; he couldn't say it.

He couldn't tell His Highness that the King was dying. Once the King died, even if the throne passed to him or Silver Fang, Farrell and Metis would definitely try to seize it. Every time there was a struggle for the throne, it was bloody and fierce. Almost no one in the sea tribe could successfully take the throne and hold onto it.

Their prince, however, was unaware of the storm brewing within.

He wasn't afraid of Metis and Farrell trying to take the throne from him, and even if Silver Fang were to ascend to the throne, he would snatch it back from Silver Fang.

Serius chose him and Silver Fang as his successors because they had the ability to sit on the throne and secure their rule.

His superpower is water control, and even Silver Fang is slightly inferior to him in the ocean.

Farrell and Metis are indeed slightly stronger than them on land, but in terms of age and experience, they and Silver Fang have higher talent and a higher potential.

Surpassing them is only a matter of time, and that time won't be long.

Now that Potty is with them, their power will only increase even faster.

This is one of the reasons why Celius chose them as his successors.

His personal desire wasn't for the throne, but for her.

Bello knelt down in front of Yu Xia, hugged her waist, buried his head in her stomach, and said in a muffled voice, "Your Highness, you can punish me however you want, but I still have to tell you that Metis and Farrell are your enemies. Your Highness can temporarily unite with them for the sake of the contaminated zone, but once the matter of the contaminated zone is over, Your Highness, we cannot be lenient."

Yu Xia placed her hand on his head and looked down at him. "So, you did this to make me completely opposed to them, and then kill them?"

Bello: "Your Highness, they will definitely make their move before you do."

Yu Xia still didn't quite understand. Bello said it was for her sake, but the logic behind his actions clearly made him look like he was trying to trap her. Although it wasn't a problem from the perspective of the internal strife among the sea tribes, he didn't need to hide it from her.

They could have simply told her that she understood the conflict between the sea tribe royal families from the very first day they were together.

She was also very aware of the hostility that Metis and others harbored towards them, especially Farrell. She was afraid that Farrell might attack her at any time, not to mention Huanmeng, who had unknown information about her.

She understands all of this.

Bello and Silver Fang clearly knew that she understood.

Then they had no reason to hide it from her.

They were given to her personally by Serius, and she had also established a spiritual connection with them, so she trusted them completely.

But she always felt that they were hiding something from her, and there was something she couldn't quite put her finger on.

She said to Bello, "What if they don't attack me?"

Bello looked up at her, not answering her question, but instead asking, "Your Highness, if they seize the throne, would you be willing to be their queen?"

Yu Xia answered without hesitation, "No." Upon hearing this, Bello's eyes brightened instantly. He wanted to ask another similar question, but he held back.

“Your Highness, they have always coveted the throne. Since Your Highness does not want to be their queen, then they are Your Highness’s enemies.”

Federal time—2 p.m., Yu Xia went to find her enemy and forbade Bello and any of her guards from accompanying her.

As soon as she arrived at the entrance of the "enemy" base, the two sea creature sentries at the gate, as if they had known she would come, gave her a simple salute and led her into the base.

The two men were unsmiling and did not speak a word to her throughout the entire meeting, nor did they even glance at her, which was in stark contrast to Metis's subordinates.

The sentries at the base only glanced at her and didn't look at her again.

This was Yu Xia's first time visiting Farrell's base. The base was much smaller than Metis's, with no heating or other heating equipment and very dim lighting.

In such a dark environment, Yu Xia felt that it was much colder inside than outside.

Every now and then, a group of sentries would pass by her. These sentries were neat and orderly, their eyes fixed straight ahead, and their discipline was very strict.

Influenced by the atmosphere, Yu Xia straightened her back and became even more nervous.

Bello kept emphasizing to her that Farrell was their adversary and enemy, and she understood this the first time she met him. Moreover, she was more wary and afraid of Farrell than Bello had imagined.

How could she not be afraid? She was the one who deserved to die—the Great Ivi of the Holy City.

Unexpectedly, Bello wanted to send the twins to him, as if he was afraid she would live too long and not die at Farrell's hands.

But Yu Xia couldn't tell him these things. She felt that to Farrell, there was no difference between Ivi and Great Ivi; she figured that even if Ivi was a guide, anyone who came from the Holy City would be doomed anyway.

She could only hope that Farrell would spare the twins' lives and not kill them.

"We've arrived, Your Highness."

The two sentries in the lead stopped in front of a room in the middle of the corridor, indicated that Farrell was inside, and then left without saying anything.

Before Yu Xia could even call out to them, the two sentries disappeared around the dim corner.

She looked around; the corridor was deserted except for her, and the dim, cold environment was somewhat eerie.

Yu Xia wondered, was the base lacking electricity?
Both her and Metis's bases are brightly lit, so why is Farrell's base so dark?

Yu Xia observed for a while before turning her gaze back to the door in front of her.

For some reason, the thought of going inside made her even more nervous.

After hesitating for a moment, she raised her hand and knocked on the door.

"Enter."

Farrell's cold, deep voice rang out.

After mentally preparing herself, Yu Xia pressed the doorknob and slowly pushed the door open.

The room was dark, even darker than the corridor, with only a few scattered lights from unidentified ornaments providing enough light for Yu Xia to barely see the room.

This appears to be an office.

Yu Xia leaned halfway in, her gaze sweeping across the office, and spotted a figure sitting at the desk.
