Reincarnated as the Death Spider Queen, sacrificing Bibi Dong at the start

The sea goddess looked puzzled and couldn't help but ask, "High Priest, I've done so many outrageous things, you...you're not angry?"

Poseidon rolled her eyes at her with a hint of exasperation, her tone carrying a rare expression of speechlessness:

"If getting angry would stop you from causing trouble in the future, I might waste my energy getting angry. But look at yourself, in all these years, have you ever had a single day of real peace and quiet?"

"Alright, enough talk, just tell me. What was his reaction?"

Seeing that the high priest truly had no intention of punishing her, the sea maiden finally breathed a long sigh of relief and answered earnestly:

"Much better, really much better than before."

"He actually really enjoys this lively and bustling life now. Watching those girls making a ruckus makes him happy. But..."

The female diver paused, her tone becoming more serious, "He still instinctively resists overly intimate physical contact."

Poseidon frowned slightly: "What kind of resistance? Is it fear? Or anger?"

The sea woman carefully recalled the look in Nanfeng's eyes whenever he was pushed to the limit, and sighed: "Both. He's afraid of those uncontrollable emotions, and at the same time, he feels angry and panicked because of that loss of control."

Poseidon remained silent for a long time, finally letting out a helpless sigh:

"I see."

"Now that you've figured out his bottom line, just keep an eye on him. But..."

At this point, Poseidon suddenly stepped forward, her stunning face close to the ama, a cold, warning glint in her deep eyes, "Don't go too far."

"What do you mean by a night raid? And why are you always sticking up to him and kissing him? Do you think the guardians of the sacred pillars of Seagod Island are some kind of female hooligan from outside?"

The sea goddess froze, immediately straightened up, and raised three fingers, solemnly guaranteeing:

"High Priest, I was wrong! I promise I will always be more careful in the future! I will never do anything so outrageous again!"

Poseidon then withdrew her gaze, turned to Little White beside her, and instructed, "Little White, keep an eye on her too. She has a wild personality, so if she does anything too outrageous in the future, you must stop her in time."

To everyone's surprise, upon hearing this, Xiaobai looked completely bewildered and began to mutter aggrievedly:

"High Priestess, I tried to stop her! But... but she's too cunning!"

Poseidon was taken aback: "Cunning?"

Xiaobai glanced at the sea woman resentfully, then whispered guiltily, "Because...because every time I try to stop her, she forcibly pulls me in too!"

Poseidon paused, clearly not understanding: "Pull you in too?"

"That's right!" Xiaobai complained, feeling both righteous and aggrieved. "She said that as long as I was dragged into this and made to take advantage of Nanfeng with her, we would all become accomplices, and I would have no grounds or reason to run back to Seagod Island to complain to you!"

These words were spoken.

The vast temple of the sea god fell into a deathly silence.

Poseidon froze on the spot, her usually calm and unwavering face now displaying a look of utter astonishment that was completely shattered for the first time.

Meanwhile, the female diver standing to the side, who had been trying her best to make herself inconspicuous, was now feeling her brain congestion and her vision blurring.

She stared at Xiaobai with a look of utter disbelief, a desperate roar echoing in her mind:

You stupid, brainless shark!

Are you trying to take me down with you?!

……

the other side.

With a flash of silver light, Nan Feng and Qian Renxue quickly returned to the beach on the west coast of Purple Pearl Island.

The beach was bustling with activity.

Ning Rongrong stood in front of the small golden mountain like a shrewd little supervisor, directing Xiao Wu, Shui Bing'er and others to do the initial classification of the treasure.

This wealth, which has been sleeping in the deep sea for thousands of years, has a very complex composition, and dividing it up will not be an easy task.

Some gold coins are of extremely high purity and can only be counted by weight as pure gold.

Some of the vessels and jewelry have unique craftsmanship and extremely high historical research value, and can be directly auctioned as antiques at a premium.

The scattered gems, rare metals, and even the unknown materials that have fallen off the rotten wooden boxes all need to be carefully identified and classified.

This kind of delicate work obviously can't be done in a short time.

Seeing Nan Feng suddenly appear, Ning Rongrong and the others, who were still holding a few gold coins, stopped what they were doing, looking completely bewildered: "T-Teacher? You're back so soon?"

"Yes, I delivered the things to the High Priest and came back. I didn't stay any longer," Nan Feng explained calmly.

Gu Yuena, who was helping to organize the antiques, heard the sound and immediately put down what she was doing, then jogged over with light steps.

She keenly sensed the faint trace of loneliness emanating from Nan Feng, and looking up, a hint of worry flashed in her purple eyes:

Are you unhappy?

Nan Feng looked at her, the weariness in his eyes fading slightly. He habitually reached out and picked Gu Yuena up, letting her sit on his arm, and said softly, "No."

Gu Yuena didn't ask any more questions. She simply stretched out her soft arms, hugged Nan Feng's neck tightly, and pressed her cheek against his shoulder, quietly offering him silent comfort.

Nan Feng held her in his arms, turned around, and walked straight towards the seaside villa behind him.

Watching Nan Feng's figure disappear behind the door, Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, and their group immediately dropped the gold coins they were holding and swarmed around Qian Renxue, their gossip blazing.

"What happened? Sister Xue, why are you back so soon?" Xiao Wu asked impatiently.

"Yeah, did the teacher encounter something unpleasant on Poseidon Island?" Ning Rongrong asked, her face full of curiosity.

Qian Renxue helplessly shrugged and shook her head: "Don't ask me, I don't know either."

"His relationship with that high priest Poseidon... was very strange, how should I put it, very complicated."

Qian Renxue recalled the scene in the main hall, her brows furrowing slightly. "I originally wanted to stay and listen to what they were talking about, but he was very firm and kicked me and the sea maid out without letting me listen at all."

"As for what happened in the main hall later, you can probably only interrogate them after the sea goddess and Shiro return."

Upon hearing this, everyone was as curious as a cat scratching at its ears, but since even Qian Renxue didn't know the inside story, they were at a loss.

After all, if Nan Feng doesn't want to talk about something, no one can get him to open his mouth.

Left with no other choice, the group could only sigh, disperse, and return to the tedious task of sorting the gold.

However, Xue Di, Bing Di, Bi Ji, and Zi Ji, who had no interest in these worldly treasures, exchanged glances and keenly sensed that Nan Feng's current state seemed a bit off.

They didn't stay to help, but silently followed Nan Feng into the villa together.

Chapter 395 When the Silver Dragon King Learns Acting Skills: Nan Feng's Daily "Compromise"

……

The spacious and bright living room of the villa is softly lit.

Nan Feng lay on the soft, wide sofa, looking slightly tired, and closed his eyes to rest.

Gu Yuena, like a docile kitten, quietly lay on his chest, listening to his steady heartbeat.

The scene appeared exceptionally quiet and harmonious.

Snow Empress and Jade Princess tiptoed in, exchanged a glance, said nothing, and simply sat down on the sofa opposite Nan Feng with Ice Empress and Purple Princess, quietly keeping him company.

Time passed quietly in the stillness, and before we knew it, the sky outside the window had completely darkened, and Purple Pearl Island had ushered in a bustling night.

Nan Feng slowly opened his eyes, exhaled a long breath, and sat up from the sofa.

He lowered his head and looked at Gu Yuena in his arms, who was gradually losing her childishness and growing into a graceful and beautiful young woman.

His long silver hair cascaded down his chest like a waterfall, and his reflection was mirrored in his purple eyes.

Nan Feng sighed, reached out and gently combed her long hair, and said earnestly:

"From now on, you can't keep asking me to carry you like this. You've grown up now, and you're no longer the clueless little kid you were when you first came to the human world."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuena not only did not pull away from his embrace, but instead raised her head, her eyes filled with a hint of confusion and stubbornness: "Why?"

Nan Feng rubbed his temples helplessly: "Why? Because men and women are different."

“If you were still a five or six-year-old child, it would be fine for me to hug and comfort you like this; that’s called the love of an elder. But now you look like a big girl, and it’s not appropriate or good for you to cling to me and be too intimate with me like before without any restraint.”

Gu Yuena leaned closer, her stunning face almost touching Nan Feng's nose, her tone carrying an irresistible air of entitlement:

"But I don't care. Besides, I understand everything."

Nan Feng reached out and cupped her delicate, flawless face in his hands, then pulled away slightly, looking at her with deep eyes: "If you really understand everything, then you should also understand what I'm thinking and my concerns."

Gu Yuena did not refute these words.

She simply looked quietly into Nan Feng's eyes. Suddenly, as if by magic, a thick layer of mist appeared in those originally clear purple eyes, about to condense into tears and roll down his cheeks.

Nan Feng's expression froze, and alarm bells immediately went off in his mind.

"Stop! Don't cry!" Nan Feng quickly whispered to stop him.

However, Gu Yuena remained unmoved. Her eyes grew increasingly red, and even her small nostrils began to twitch slightly, making her look pitiful as if she had suffered a great injustice and was ready to burst into tears at any moment.

Nan Feng felt a deep sense of exhaustion and powerlessness.

"Stop, stop, stop! I'm scared of you!"

Nan Feng helplessly raised his hands in surrender and quickly compromised, "Okay, okay, I can hug you, alright? Hug me however you want!"

"but!"

Nan Feng immediately raised a finger, sternly establishing the rules, "Absolutely not outside! You must be mindful of your behavior! And at home, you can no longer act as recklessly as before!"

"Especially private things like showering and changing clothes, you must do them independently from now on! Also, you absolutely cannot do what you did this morning when you got my mouth all over with cream and jam while eating ice cream, and then you came over and stuck out your tongue to lick it! What kind of behavior is that!"

Seeing that Nan Feng had agreed, Gu Yuena blinked.

The tears that had been welling up in her eyes vanished without a trace, as if absorbed by some mysterious force. A sly smile played on her lips, and she nodded obediently.

"Okay! I've got it!"

Watching her change of expression faster than flipping through a book, Nan Feng was speechless, his lips twitching wildly: "Where did you learn this superb acting skill from? Xiao Wu or Ning Rongrong?"

"Do I even need to learn this?" Gu Yuena raised her chin confidently. "A woman's talent is innate!"

Nan Feng sighed wearily, completely giving up on trying to reason with this cunning silver dragon king.

He pinched Gu Yuena's armpits with both hands, lifted her off his body, and placed her on the sofa next to him.

Then, Nan Feng turned his head and looked at Xue Di, Bing Di, Bi Ji, and Zi Ji, who had been sitting opposite him as quiet listeners for a long time.
