Talulah, I'm still a child.

Aside from her appearance, Cecilia is like a shadow of Mei Xue's past self. They share common interests, tastes, and similar personalities and temperaments.

Sometimes when Mei Xue looked at Cecilia, she felt like she was looking in a mirror. However, nowadays, mirrors and cameras can no longer capture her presence, so there's no way to look in a mirror anymore.

"Cecilia, do you miss your mother?"

Looking at the unusually quiet little angel in her arms, Mei Xue reached out and gently stroked her head. Cecilia's hair was quite nice, very smooth.

"A little, but I feel very safe with my brother by my side."

Cecilia gently shook her head, then nestled into Mei Xue's belly and rubbed against her. Today, Mei Xue smelled of plum blossoms, very fragrant, but unlike artificial perfumes, it didn't make people feel uncomfortable.

How to describe it? Perhaps this is the feeling that comes with the transition from winter to spring. It's hard to put into words, but anyone who walks into a garden on a sunny spring day can feel the same way Cecilia does now.

"Of course, I'm the older brother~"

The little fox looked somewhat proud, then gently wrapped its tail around the little angel to keep her warm. Their conversation didn't last long, and soon Alde brought Clovisia into the living room.

Clovisia's face still had a blush that hadn't faded. Although she was a little unhappy to see the little angel clinging to Meixue, she wasn't so jealous after Alede's persuasion. Alede was right; she had grown up, and based on that alone, she didn't need to worry about Cecilia becoming her rival. This little angel couldn't actually pose any threat to her.

"If it's Brother Meixue, then I can understand why the Sarkaz were so on high alert yesterday."

Clovisia felt somewhat better now, at least confirming that what had happened before wasn't some major move by the Sarkaz, but she couldn't help but complain again.

“But if you do this, the war between the Grand Dukes and the Sarkaz will be beyond saving.”

In the end, Clovisia has grown up now and sees things more clearly. Before, she would foolishly hope that some Grand Duke could defeat the Sarkaz and free Lontinim, but now, although the Sarkaz's rule is brutal, the Grand Dukes are not necessarily good people either.

For so many years, they have allowed the Sarkaz to grow stronger, busy with their own infighting and mutual restraint. Klovishia knows very well that they are all eyeing the throne of the Holy King's Hall. As long as she can defeat the Sarkaz and take over the city, she will be invincible in terms of honor. Then, she can follow the traditional routine of declining the throne three times and sitting on it. No matter how dissatisfied the other Grand Dukes are, they cannot say it outright.

To put it bluntly, it depends on where people's hearts are. Victoria had been without a monarch for too long and desperately wanted someone to lead them forward.

Now that even the renowned Iron Duke Wellington is no longer silent, one can imagine what kind of test Victoria will face next. Moreover, Clovisia has received news that the Sarkaz's secret weapon is complete, which will be their biggest trump card.

"War will not come, don't worry."

Mei Xue seemed exceptionally confident about this matter. He looked at Cecilia in his arms, and then spent the whole morning drinking tea and chatting with Clovisia and Alde.

However, time marches on, and the world continues on its own trajectory. As tensions rise in Victoria, different changes are taking place throughout Terra.

With the establishment of the Terran Union, this behemoth composed of more than a dozen forces played its due role in just a few days. Iberia and Colombia directly intervened in the situation in Bolivar, telling the Singas dynasty and the Bolivarian Union government that they had once supported: "Stop it, kids, or next time we'll be dealing with those Sirens who beat people up whenever they feel like it."

The Siren lolis used the destruction of Ursus to tell the member states of the council that what Amaya said was true: these aquatic lolis raised by Mei Xue really have the ability to overturn the order of this land. It's just that they have never shown their strength because they were controlled by Mei Xue and had no interest in the struggle against humans.

That's why countries are rushing to deal with their current issues. Bolivar is relatively relaxed, since after so many years it's still a three-way division. You can imagine how incompetent the Singas dynasty and the Bolivarian coalition government really are. Iberia is still a powerful nation, and Colombia is at the forefront of the times. With these two taking action, they can probably resolve the matter in about half a month.

As for Agor, that's even less of a problem. Amaya can take Gatanjee on a trip and handle it. Plus, with the intelligence of the three Deep Sea Bishops (although Quintus is nowhere to be found), the Deep Sea cultists hiding within Agor can be caught easily.

"I never expected that... in less than a month, we would have accomplished something that would have taken decades or even centuries to complete."

Looking at the real-time intelligence reports in front of her, Violet couldn't help but sigh, because it felt like a dream. She never imagined that the situation would change in such a way that no one could predict the future.

"Hehe, actually, if we really wanted to, we could have accomplished these things a long time ago, but... only when everyone faces the same pressure will we understand why we need to unite."

Pope Ivan ate his cake with a smile, extremely optimistic about the current situation. In fact, the Terran Union Conference was able to achieve such results so quickly largely due to the pressure from all sides. The most prominent factor was the will behind the stars whose true face was unknown to anyone, and then there was the decades of lobbying and visits by the Doctor and Mei Xue.

However, the most important person might be the overly assertive Siren lady. The Sirens have proven their power, which may make them more feared in the future, but at least for now, it will be a boost to the new situation. Everyone is afraid that these hot-tempered lolis will cause trouble. Since Mei Xue did not stop their actions in Ursus, it is equivalent to the little fox tacitly approving their actions. This is also interpreted as Mei Xue's statement: he does not want to wait any longer.

"Yes, if only I had done it sooner... if only I had realized it sooner."

"No one can be blamed for this. The evolution of the Sea Spirit is happening day by day, and the demons are becoming stronger because people know about them. The former has not yet shown too much of a threat, but the latter... If all the people of Terra knew about the existence of the demons, then Ursus's lines would be breached within an hour at most, and the entire land would not be able to withstand such an offensive."

Of course, this does not mean that the Sea Siege poses no threat. In fact, the Sea Siege is still in a state of probing. Their confrontation with Iberia and Agor has taught them how to fight. Once Isamara, who represents the fight, returns to the large group in the deep sea, the Sea Siege will bring destruction to this land.

Thinking about it this way, Terra has truly suffered many disasters.

"But I think our Sirens are already solving this biggest problem for us."

"You mean, they went to Ursus not just to help Reunion completely crush Ursus?"

"After all, didn't Mr. Ulbian say that a hundred Sirens would be a bit too much trouble to deal with Ursus?"

Faced with Ivan's words, Violet really had no way to refute them. Previously, apart from the representatives of Da Yan and Agor, no one believed that they could do anything with just a hundred Sirens. However, after hearing that the last three army groups of Ursus had also failed, everyone was speechless.

You have to understand that even if it weren't for the combat strength of the First and Second Elite Groups guarding the northern front, the Fourth, Fifth, and Seventh Army Groups would still have over 100,000 men. That's not like dealing with 100,000 pigs. No, even dealing with 100,000 pigs wouldn't be that fast.

So this time, ending the struggle between Ursus and Reunion was just a convenient excuse; the more important thing for the Sirens was yet to come.

"Ugh... Sister Pomegranate, the snow here tastes awful."

"Nonsense, this isn't ice cream, and I've told you countless times not to call me Sister Pomegranate."

Siren Number Sixteen yawned wearily, wishing she could slap her best friend to death right there. Although they were all dressed in light summer clothes, the heavy snow in the northern Ursus region was nothing to worry about for them. They practically treated this place as a tourist attraction.

"However... Ugh, these demons are so ugly, I really can't muster any appetite."

Looking at the demonic corpses scattered all over the ground, Siren No. 124 couldn't help but shudder. It was just too disgusting. Compared to these guys, even Hai Si was cute.

"You actually thought about eating this stuff? You have a really strong palate. No wonder you can accept snail rice noodles."

Siren No. 16 was at a loss for words. After several days of travel, she had ventured deeper into this place, and her first encounter with the demons was much easier than she had imagined. The number of demons was also much greater. Although the power of these demons was very strange, Siren herself had Mei Xue's protection, making her immune to the kind of power that could pollute the space.

"First of all, I'm not human. Secondly, Sister Pomegranate, you're the kind of person who can accept cold preserved eggs, so you have no right to say anything good about me."

"That's still better than eating raw scallions!"

"Your cold-dressed houttuynia cordata isn't much better!"

Seeing that the conversation was gradually going astray, the remaining sisters quickly separated the two before they started fighting. It was strange, though, that even though the sirens shared the same thoughts and ideas, they also exhibited very distinct personality traits and had completely different temperaments.

Despite some setbacks, the sirens finally arrived at their destination after nearly four hours of walking.

The whiteness of the snowfield is dangerous, with its gloomy sky and endless snowfield. However, what guided them here was the only thing that could serve as a beacon.

"Just as Master said..."

Looking at the towering, mountain-like, fox-like skeleton in the distance, the Sirens uttered the same voice as when they first ventured into the sea, only this skeleton was newer.

And this was undoubtedly Mei Xue's corpse.

Chapter 107 The Battleground Between the First Wife and the Ex-Wife

"One, two, three, four... It really does have four tails, but it is indeed a little smaller than the one I saw before."

Although it was still large enough to overlook the ancient mountain range stretching into the distance, Mei Xue's remains were indeed smaller than the ones they had seen before. The ribs from before were at least a kilometer long, while the one before them seemed to be at most seven hundred meters long.

"Is it because it has four tails? Oh well."

"Sister Pomegranate, should we move it back?"

"……Need not."

Siren Number Sixteen was too lazy to care about being called Sister Pomegranate. The more she resisted, the more excited the group of sisters became. Mei Xue really should teach these girls a lesson one by one.

"No wonder even though Ursus is in such chaos, the elite First and Second Army Groups haven't returned to defend. If they give way, Ursus will be the first to be hit, and the Reunion Movement will naturally fail."

Having witnessed the demons of the North, the Siren lolis began to understand the source of Mei Xue's concerns.

"And this... is to prevent a cornered dog from doing something rash."

She gently stroked the massive skeleton. Even though it was already dead, just standing there quietly was enough to make those twisted demons tremble with fear. They would rather die here than not die. To prevent the two Ursus army groups from actually turning back, Mei Xue also made her own preparations.

However, this past body has now become an obstacle, so when the sirens told Mei Xue everything they had seen, the little fox simply wagged its tail and told them about the next task.

"Shall we just leave it here?"

"Of course not, then there's no point in us coming here. Let's tear it down."

"……learn."

The sirens communicate with each other, so if one of the sisters understands Mei Xue's intentions, the rest will understand as well. But how should I put it... last time in the sea it was unintentional, but this time it was intentional. Tearing down Mei Xue's grave twice in a row feels a bit strange.

However, since they are Mei Xue's relatives, they don't have to worry about being held accountable for doing this. If it were anyone else, they would probably die on the spot for some strange reason if they had this idea.

Although she didn't know why Mei Xue was doing this, since it was the little fox's order, she had to do it. The skeleton itself didn't have much power, so the girls dismantled it very quickly. Logically speaking, dismantling it shouldn't have any impact on Mei Xue, but the little fox was feeling a bit... cold.

It shouldn't be because of these two people in front of me, right?

"I didn't realize that Ms. Theresa and Meixue had known each other for so long. That's quite a surprise. In that case, please make sure to attend my and Meixue's wedding."

Talulah sat opposite Theresa with a forced smile, picked up a cup of tea, and used the aristocratic etiquette she had learned from Koschei to make her at least presentable.

"Hehe, I definitely will. But I really envy Ms. Talulah. I've been with Mei Xue for so many years, and she always says she feels sorry for me and doesn't let me get pregnant."

Theresa is no less impressive. After all, she was the former first wife and had a relationship with Mei Xue that spanned at least a decade. In this respect, Talulah was indeed a later arrival and hadn't had as much time with her. As for whether they had children? Theresa said that Amiya was already so grown up, what more could be said? They were more like family than blood relatives!

(I feel so cold. I have a bad feeling about this. This shouldn't be happening. Could it be that Ursus is affecting me?)

The little fox, who didn't understand what a "battleground" was, couldn't yet see the tension between Talulah and Theresa. He had only just returned to find the two of them chatting and drinking tea and snacks, and he even thought that their relationship was better than he had imagined.

Cecilia is definitely the best!

Thinking this, Mei Xue hugged the beautiful girl in her arms tightly. The little angel was as comfortable to hold as her tail. Cecilia would even snuggle up to him on her own initiative, and she was very well-behaved. Unlike the older sisters who would push the little fox down at the slightest disagreement, like that cockroach bully, well, I'm talking about W. Last time, when we were playing a game, it suddenly switched from online hunting to 2P fighting, and naturally, W suffered a crushing defeat in the end. After all, Mei Xue now has nine tails.

However, W's ability to withstand the attacks of Nine-Tails Mei for four hours, even though she ended up in Rhodes Island's medical department, is truly admirable. It's said that she couldn't get out of bed for two days afterward, and Warfarin even checked her several times to make sure she wasn't pregnant.

"Come to think of it, Mei Xue really knows a lot of people, even more than a thousand years ago."

Talulah's implication was, "Don't flaunt your seniority in front of me, There are plenty of people who knew Mei Xue long before you," whether it was the three sisters of the Sui family, the Nine-Colored Deer, or Isamara, who had been dealing with the little fox for thousands of years.

“Indeed, Mei Xue also told me that he had already become a father at that time.”

Theresa's retort was also sharp, because for Mei Xue, although Nian and Xi were not her biological children, she would never show them any favoritism. So even if Talulah was pregnant, she was still a big threat to everyone. This girl had basically secured her position as the main wife.

(I have a feeling the sisters are talking about something really important.)

Cecilia scratched her head in confusion, then buried her face in Mei Xue's chest and rubbed against her. Although she didn't understand much, she didn't care. She didn't care about anything else; she could just stick close to Mei Xue.

How boring. Maybe I should go find someone else. But the shapeshifters definitely wouldn't dare play with Mei Xue, and the little fox doesn't like the absolutist either. If it weren't for Theresa, he probably would have slapped him.

Should we go find Alleide and Clovisia? No, they're busy too. Forget it, then there's only one place left to choose from here!

“Cecilia, let’s go…”

"Mei Xue!" ×2

Just as the little fox was about to take Cecilia to meet another friend, Theresa and Talulah each grabbed one of his tails, leaving the little fox nowhere to escape.

"Goo!"

Mei Xue let out a mournful cry, realizing something was wrong. Seeing the unhappy and somewhat resentful expressions on the two faces, the little fox realized that she might not be able to leave so easily. She gently lifted Cecilia up and let the little angel cover her face.

"Cecilia, be good. Your sisters need to borrow your brother Meixue for a bit. We'll return him to you later. Go back to your room and watch TV first."

"My brother is mine, I won't give him to me."

The little angel resolutely hugged Mei Xue's head, looking like a chick protecting its chicks, though it looked more like a facehugger.
