The villains are redeemed, and the heroines cry and beg for forgiveness.

They immediately put aside their past grievances and roared as they attacked the underwater ruins.

They had kept their tempers in the past and hadn't damaged the underwater ruins, but now they couldn't stand it anymore.

Gu Ran was startled. If there really were small sea snails inside, it would be terrible if their attacks had a negative impact on her.

But the next moment he stopped what he was doing and cast an inquiring look at the pyramid-shaped ruins.

The initial attacks by the sea monsters and ferocious beasts did have an effect on the ruins, which teetered on the brink of collapse.

Before the next wave of attacks from these sea monsters and ferocious beasts could arrive, the ruins suddenly burst forth with dazzling rays of light, shooting towards the sea monsters and ferocious beasts that had just attacked.

In just a moment, half of the bodies of those sea monsters and ferocious beasts melted away in the light.

The sea monsters and ferocious beasts were so frightened that they immediately fled far away.

"Is the ruins automatically retaliating? Or has the little conch already gained initial control of the ruins and is manipulating the retaliation?"

Gu Ran's gaze swept over the ruins with a hint of surprise, but unfortunately, the ruins only moved for a moment before ceasing to retaliate with light after the sea beasts and ferocious beasts had fled far away.

Gu Ran glanced at the sea beasts and ferocious monsters in the distance.

"Judging from the way they swam here, the little conch shouldn't have been discovered by them. It seems that the key's concealment effect worked." Gu Ran then turned to look at the ruins. "If the person in the ruins really is the little conch."

Although it is speculated that the person in the ruins is undoubtedly Little Conch, Gu Ran did not actually see Little Conch go in, so he still had some doubts.

......

Outside the light screen.

“When I was receiving the inheritance in the ruins, I never saw another creature enter, so the one in the ruins now should be me, not that pink mermaid named Eudora.”

Ariel pondered.

"Could it be that the pink mermaid had an accident on the way to the ruins, which caused a rift between Gu Ran and the mermaids, or that the glue was missing, making it irreconcilable when conflicts arose later?"

"Or is there some other reason? What exactly happened to that pink mermaid? Did something unexpected happen? And why did Gu Ran kill his grandmother and imprison his mother?"

Ariel turned her gaze to the light screen and continued to recall: "I remember that when I received the inheritance, everything went smoothly without any accidents. When the time came, I came out of the ruins. However, after coming out, I did feel that things had changed. It felt like a very long time had passed. When I recalled the past, it was both clear and blurry, a strange sense of contradiction."

She turned to her subordinates, her expression serious: "Still no news about that pink mermaid?"

The merman subordinate being questioned broke out in a light sweat and said, "Your Majesty, yes, there is news, but... but..."

Ariel's gaze sharpened: "But what? If you dare to hide anything from me, you know what will happen to you."

The subordinate of the individual fish clan dared not hesitate any longer and hurriedly whispered, "It's just very strange that the elders of the clan who were asked initially all denied knowing anything, but when they were asked again, they actually... actually committed suicide."

Committed suicide?

Hearing the name Eudora caused him to commit suicide?

Ariel's pupils contracted.

The other powerful humans present were startled and began to whisper among themselves.

But Ariel could no longer care about them; she began to sense that something was amiss.

"No, that's not right. Grandmother knew I was receiving the inheritance in the ruins, so why didn't she tell that pink mermaid? If I had succeeded, the mermaid race's crisis would have been resolved. Was it because of secrecy? Did it have to go to that extent?"

......

In the light screen.

The frustrated sea monsters and ferocious beasts temporarily abandoned their attack on the ruins. Although none of them had died, many of them had been seriously injured, which left them feeling uneasy.

"That human is still here, let's eat him first." Frustrated, the sea monsters and ferocious beasts turned their anger on Gu Ran.

They have no way to deal with ancient ruins for the time being, but they have many ways to deal with mere humans.

Gu Ran narrowed his eyes slightly. Were they already surrounded? But it was somewhat expected.

However, Gu Ran had no intention of retreating or running away. He had promised Little Conch to help the Merfolk reclaim the ruins. Although he had not yet reached the Golden Core Realm of Martial Arts, if he could maneuver around the situation, he should be able to at least slowly eliminate some of them.

Then, facing a ferocious beast that was about to devour him, Gu Ran immediately used his old method as before, transforming himself into a "spiritual javelin" and charging straight into the beast's mouth.

Just as the ferocious beast was about to burp, it was surprised to find that it suddenly felt empty inside.

The beast, whose belly had been ripped open and most of its internal organs spilled out, did not die immediately. However, once it realized its fatal wound, it quickly lost its life force and became part of the ocean's nutrients.

Gu Ran's strength surprised the other sea beasts and ferocious beasts. This human actually had such strength, but he clearly didn't have the aura of a crystal core or golden core on him. Without such an aura, he couldn't be considered a human powerhouse. So how did he do it just now?

"Kill the humans first!"

"Humans do not belong to the ocean, so deal with humans first!"

These sea creatures and ferocious beasts exchanged a few words and quickly reached a consensus.

Compared to the deceit and treachery that occur when humans unite, the alliances between these sea monsters and ferocious beasts are much more straightforward and direct.

If it's a joint effort, then it's absolutely a joint effort; there's no compromise whatsoever.

Gu Ran quickly witnessed various attacks: some used their tails to sweep across him, some spat water bullets at him, some sprayed poison at him, and some even fired their teeth at him...

In short, these ferocious beasts and sea creatures each have their own advantages and abilities.

It must be said that these ferocious beasts and sea monsters are indeed powerful; even with Gu Ran's strength, he was beaten to the point of vomiting blood again.

However, Gu Ran was not discouraged or desperate. He even smiled because he had found a way to continue tempering his body.

Aren't these all tools he uses to temper his physical body?

However, in the eyes of others, it was misunderstood once again.

"Gu Ran, I've brought Elder Grandmother to help you! Don't risk your life anymore!" Alice's voice reached Gu Ran's ears.

The little conch's grandmother, however, did not look at Gu Ran. Instead, she stared excitedly at the underwater ruins, a strange light flashing in her eyes.

91. The Truth Behind the Abnormality of the Small Sea Snail? (4k)

"That's right, that's right, that's it! Eudora has gone in! Hahaha, the mermaid race is about to be revived!" The little conch's grandmother waved her arms, her joy almost maniacal.

"They really are merfolk inside. We shouldn't have let them go in the first place!"

"Damn it, do these inferior creatures, the merfolk, who are half-human and half-fish, deserve to enjoy such a legacy?"

The sea monsters and ferocious beasts were both shocked and enraged; they had even forgotten about Gu Ran.

Gu Ran looked at the little conch's grandmother's state, seemingly lost in thought.

It seems that Little Conch's grandmother has been hiding a lot from him, and she is far more shrewd than he imagined.

Was her concealment out of self-protection, or...?

"Kill them!"

"Make them hand over the method to enter the ruins!"

Alice and Grandmother Seashell attracted the hatred of all the sea monsters and ferocious beasts present, and they quickly united and attacked the two of them.

Gu Ran immediately went to help, but with his current strength, he could only deal with one or two sea beasts and ferocious beasts on the scene at most in a short time; he was too weak to handle any more than that.

However, to his surprise, the little conch's grandmother was much stronger than he had imagined.

Although she did not confront these sea monsters and ferocious beasts head-on, she did unleash a skill that seemed to allow her to teleport instantly.

She and Alice disappeared from the spot, then suddenly reappeared on the other side, and all the attacks against her went to waste.

The process of disappearing and reappearing was completely without any clue, as if it all happened out of thin air.

Gu Ran suddenly remembered why the little conch appeared in the inland river. Could it be the same skill?

After using the "spiritual javelin" to defeat the ferocious beast in front of him, Gu Ran immediately swam towards Alice and the others, hoping to be able to help them.

However, Gu Ran found that he didn't need to worry about them at all. Although the strength of Grandmother Little Conch in direct combat was still to be observed, her ability to evade and dodge was very strong. Even with Alice as a burden, she was not harmed at all.

"Gu Ran, Eudora has successfully entered the ruins. With their strength, they can't affect the ruins. We can retreat first."

Suddenly, Gu Ran heard the voice of the little conch's grandmother. He looked over and nodded.

Since the little conch's grandmother assured him that these sea beasts and ferocious monsters could not affect the ruins, and he had indeed just witnessed the power of the ruins' counterattack, he felt relieved.

“My abilities cannot affect you as a human, so you will have to leave here on your own in a moment. Try to find a way to get around them. You have the necklace that Eudora gave you around your neck. I can contact you through it. Once you have gotten rid of them, I will guide you back to the Mermaid Clan.”

Gu Ran nodded again, and at the same time he understood why Alice and the little conch grandmother were able to "talk" to him in the ocean. It turned out to be the function of this conch necklace.

Finally, Grandma Conch glanced at Gu Ran, then took Alice and disappeared from their original spot, never to be seen again.

"They ran away again!"

"Damn it, this ability is really difficult to deal with!"

"But that human is still here. They didn't take him with them when they escaped. We can interrogate this human."

All the sea beasts and ferocious beasts turned their attention to Gu Ran, but after observing their positions, Gu Ran immediately chose the best route to leave.

His purpose in coming here was to locate the little conch and protect her as much as possible. Now that his location and safety have been confirmed, he has achieved his goal and no longer needs to entangle himself with these sea monsters and ferocious beasts.

Although Gu Ran's ability to escape was not as good as that of his grandmother, Little Conch, he had the advantage of a strong physique, which allowed him to charge forward without hesitation.

If only one or two sea beasts or ferocious beasts without any special attack methods are blocking his way, he can even kill a few more sea beasts and ferocious beasts on the way to Kairun without wasting much time.

Gu Ran swam into the deep sea, where the ocean currents and concealment would help him better escape the pursuit of these ferocious beasts and sea monsters.

Along the way, Gu Ran estimated the time it would take to swim underwater by counting her normal breathing.

After counting his normal breaths more than two thousand times, Gu Ran looked back and saw that there were no sea monsters or ferocious beasts behind him anymore.
