The villain really doesn't want to steal the heroine.

The sand on the beach was very clean, obviously carefully crafted by Latifah Poseidon (shipped from Coral Island), without any trace of impurities. It was slightly dazzling under the evening sunlight.

On the small beach, Xingyi, wearing a waterproof bodysuit (one-piece swimsuit), was playing with sand with a small shovel. There was a small bucket next to her. She filled the bucket with sand from time to time and poured it out to build a castle. She was having a lot of fun.

The castle has gradually taken shape and looks quite realistic.

Davilia, Norlandi, and Claire's swimsuits were all the same, waterproof tights, and even the color was exactly the same, dark blue.

Wan Xing doesn't care about this. Although their swimsuits are very conservative, everyone's body shape is different, so even if they dress conservatively, they are still very seductive.

Especially Davila, her upper body curves are extremely exaggerated, but her waist is very slender. This is simply not a standard that a real person can achieve. Only characters in comics have such proportions.

But Wan Xing, who had been honest with her, knew that these were all real materials.

Luo Ai'er, who was wearing the same one-piece swimsuit, did not go to play together. Instead, she took out ingredients and kitchen utensils from the storage ring first. In order to be able to prepare perfect meals for her master anytime and anywhere, the storage ring given to her by her master contained not weapons and equipment, but ingredients.

As Wanxing walked to the lake, Xierfei swam over first, supported the edge with both hands, and climbed out of the water.

At this moment, she still maintained her human form. She stood up and shook her head, and her wet golden hair was thrown behind her. The unique swimsuit showed off her perfect figure - only the two mermaids and Wanxing's swimsuits were different, which were much better looking than the waterproof tights.

"Wanxing, come and play together."

Sylphy greeted him with a smile, then dragged Wanxing into the water. The language and actions were very similar to the scene in mythology where a siren used her singing to lure a fisherman, then dragged him into the water and drowned him.

Wan Xing could have refused, but that would have been too unromantic, so he pretended to be caught off guard and hugged her and threw her into the water, splashing a large puddle of water.

The lake water in the evening is a little cool, but it doesn’t make people feel cold. After getting into the water, the cold feeling disappears after a while, and the temperature feels no different from that on the shore.

Because Dafuliya was the closest, the splashing water covered her head and face. After she realized what was happening, she puffed out her cheeks and splashed water with her hands, repeatedly splashing it on Wanxing's face to avenge herself for being splashed with water.

Although Norlandi beside her was also splashed, she and Wanxing had never had any in-depth contact, and coupled with her inferiority complex of not being able to compete for favor with Her Royal Highness the Princess, she could only stand there and watch.

A little further away was Claires, who was also splashed by water, but not as completely as Devilia.

But she is different from Norlandi. Although she doesn't have the courage to be "angry", she still has the courage to compete for favor in the name of "anger", and it's very bold!

So Claires also joined the battle and teamed up with Devilia to "attack" Wanxing.

Sylphy, who surfaced from the lake, watched the scene with a smile, without any sense of shame for dragging anyone into the water.

Wan Xing was splashed with water all over his head and face. Before fighting back, he "warned" him, "Liya, Aisi, if you two don't stop, you will bear the consequences."

"What are the consequences? Family punishment?" Davilya laughed and splashed more happily.

"That's it?" Claire said with disdain, but her face was full of anticipation.

"You are so rampant. I will execute you here and now." Wan Xing said in a deliberately vicious tone, then suddenly pounced over and hugged the two women easily.

Of course, neither of them thought about hiding away.

"Yeah~"

The captured Davila screamed in terror, but her face did not show any terror, but rather a look of excitement.

"Come on, I won't give in!"

Claires tried to arouse Wanxing's desire to conquer by looking like she was ready to die heroically.

The two girls were vying for his favor in various ways, and Sylphy couldn't help herself.

She was the one who dragged Wanxing into this. In order to cultivate a relationship with Wanxing, she made a lot of preparations and even plucked a few scales - she actually even wove a set of clothes for Wanxing, so the naturally shed scales she had saved before were not enough, but she was embarrassed to take them out, so she wanted to find a suitable opportunity to give them to Wanxing, just like this time when they came to the lakeside courtyard to swim.

Xi Erfei had been preparing for so long, so naturally she couldn't bear to see Wan Xing being snatched away by two women!

So she had no choice but to go back to her old ways and transform back into a mermaid - her upper body emerged from the water, and her lower body turned into a giant golden fish tail, swaying gracefully in the blue lake. The total length of her body was more than two and a half meters.

Then she took out the crystal harp and played it gently. The whispering syllables flowed from her mouth and turned into moving music from nature.

Hard work pays off, and Xi Erfei's performance successfully attracted Wan Xing's attention.

Not only Wanxing, but everyone present looked at her.

"As expected of a mermaid princess, she can play such a soul-stirring piece of music!" Davilia gave Sylphy a thumbs up.

"Mermaid!?"

Claire, attracted by Sylphy's singing, suddenly screamed.

Although she had met Sylphy before, and even knew Sylphy earlier than Davilia - she met Sylphy when Wanxing returned to the dormitory from the underwater city that day.

But during the several meetings with Claire, Sylphy maintained her human form, so this was also the first time Claire saw the true form of the mermaid princess.

"My great-great-grandson's wife, you seem very surprised." Latifah Poseidon had already entered the water at some point, quietly approached her, and said meaningfully.

"You are the Great Ancestor of Wanxing..." Before Claires could finish her words, she suddenly felt a tightness around her waist. She saw a huge pure white fish tail wrapped around her. After realizing what it was, she didn't feel any fear. Instead, she said excitedly, "Grandma, can I touch your tail?"

"Uh... um?" [Latifa Poseidon] was stunned. She was originally in a playful mood and wanted to tease this girl who carried the aura of her great-great-grandson in her body, but she didn't expect the other party to be so bold.

After a slight hesitation, she nodded and said, "Go ahead, kid."

"Wow! Thank you, grandma!" Claire was as excited as a little child. She hugged the fish tail of [Latifa Poseidon] with both hands, and wanted to kiss her. This was the legendary mermaid. She didn't expect that she, a Cinderella from a mountain village, could touch this legendary creature with her own hands.

The other people present had seen Sylphy's mermaid form, so they were not as excited as Claire, but just listened to her singing quietly.

Feeling the stars' attention drawn to him, Xi Erfei suddenly felt victory was in sight and played even harder. Melodic music from the depths of the ocean echoed in the small yet cozy courtyard in the middle of the lake...

Chapter 141: Equal Wife (Two Chapters in One)

After Sylphy finished her song, Roelle, who was standing on the beach, took the opportunity to call out, "Master, the ingredients are ready."

It was almost dusk and the sun was setting, making it the perfect time to enjoy dinner.

"Come to think of it, I'm a little hungry."

Hearing Luo Ai'er's call, everyone present felt that their stomachs were indeed a little empty. Whether playing in the water, building castles or playing music, they had consumed a lot of energy.

Wanxing took the lead in climbing ashore and walked to the edge of the beach. This was a good place to hold a barbecue party. Afterwards, you could also set off magic fireworks. There was a lake next to it, so there was no need to worry about causing a fire.

There were eight people dining, so four tables were set up, filled with a wide variety of delicious food. Vegetables, meat and seafood were placed separately. Just looking at the appearance made people very hungry.

Luo Ai'er had already cleaned and cut all the ingredients, and then used iron skewers to string them into super large skewers, each weighing half a pound.

There were only two barbecue grills, not because of a lack of kitchen utensils - there were plenty of barbecue grills in Luo'er's storage ring. However, there were only eight people on the scene in total. If there were too many barbecue grills, people would be dispersed and there would be no lively atmosphere.

Soon, four people gathered in front of each grill. In order to create an atmosphere, they didn't even light the magic lamps, but only lit a few bonfires on the beach. Although they were not as bright as the magic lamps, they did not appear dim either - the key point was that everyone present was not a weakling, and night vision was basic operation. They could see clearly as long as there was light.

Because Davilia and Claires had been frank and close with Wanxing, they stood opposite Wanxing openly.

There was also Roelle at the grill on his side, and the other four on the other side.

Everyone was wearing cool swimsuits, holding skewers in their hands, showing off their skills on the grill and chatting happily - the two grills were close together, so people on both sides could chat with each other.

Wanxing grilled beef and squid skewers; he was a carnivore and couldn't live without meat. The girls, on the other hand, mostly grilled vegetables, which resembled giant white rabbits—regardless of whether they were rabbits or not, Wanxing had to admit that, with the exception of Xingyi and Luo'er, they were all quite large.

"Ais, your eggplant is burnt."

Wanxing reminded Claires, who was grilling at the same grill, that she seemed to be "reluctant to leave" after touching Latifah Poseidon's fish tail, and looked at Latifah Poseidon with curiosity from time to time, so much so that she didn't even notice that the food she was grilling was burnt.

"Ah..." Claire was startled and quickly took back the skewer to take a look. Sure enough, the white eggplant flesh had been replaced by black charcoal.

"Eating burnt food can cause cancer, so just cook it again," Wan Xing suggested.

"Oh, okay." Claire hurriedly threw away the burnt food and went to the table to get fresh ingredients, this time potatoes. While putting them on the grill, she returned to her previous "fishing" state.

Wanxing didn't care too much. It was normal for Claire to be curious about mermaids - ordinary people in this world are generally curious about extraordinary creatures. After all, extraordinary creatures do exist.

Even Wanxing's previous life, those fictional supernatural creatures, have attracted many people's curiosity, not to mention the real supernatural creatures.

After grilling for a while, he felt that the beef was almost done, so he picked up the skewers, put the grilled beef on a clean plate, and then took another skewer of fresh beef to continue grilling.

Since it wouldn't cook quickly, he put the skewers on the grill and let them roast on their own. He then picked up the plate of roasted beef and walked to the makeshift table, ready to enjoy the fruits of his labor.

"What a coincidence, Wanxing! I'm done grilling too. Want to try some?" Xi Erfei also came over with a plate. She was grilling corn, a delicious and unique barbecued vegetarian dish. Corn is naturally sweet, but after grilling, its aroma becomes even stronger and the taste becomes even better.

Today's event was prepared by [Latifa Poseidon] to cultivate the relationship between Sylphy and Wanxing, so Sylphy would naturally be more proactive than usual.

For this purpose, she even went to Latifah Poseidon's bedroom to change into a swimsuit - the shining scales, the flowing ribbons, the hazy fabric... all attracted Wanxing's attention.

The graceful Sylphy, in this figure-flattering swimsuit, makes her round gravitational body appear even more majestic, as if the next moment, the shining star will break free from its restraints and suddenly rebound, shaking out gravitational waves that can shake the world.

Dressed like this, she would definitely attract people's attention wherever she went. Fortunately, the courtyard in the middle of the lake was a forbidden area of ​​the Duke's Mansion. Not to mention outsiders, even Duke Russell couldn't enter, so she didn't have to worry about being seen by others.

As for being seen by Wanxing, this was exactly what Sylphy wanted - after all, this set of clothes was a charming suit prepared for her by [Latifa Poseidon], not the formal dress she wore on a daily basis.

She usually doesn't wear seductive outfits when going out, but today she wore them specifically for Wanxing to see.

Sylphy really enjoyed his admiring gaze. She counted carefully and found that ever since she changed into this swimsuit, Wanxing's gaze had obviously been on her much longer than on Devilia and Claires.

Compared to her, Devilia and Claire's swimsuits were much more conservative. Their waterproof tights resembled the modern diving suits of Wanxing's past life. While they also flattered their figures, they covered their bodies tightly, revealing very little.

In addition to wearing a seductive outfit, Sylphy's words were also deliberately ambiguous - taste my flavor... Of course, others probably wouldn't doubt that this refers to her own flavor, but just think it is the flavor of her roasted corn.

"Xylphy, I have my own." Seeing the concerned looks of the girls around him, Wan Xing politely declined her kindness.

"But I want to exchange with you. It seems that meat is more delicious." Sylphy did not give up. Instead, he stared at his beef and licked his lips.

Faced with her insistence, Wan Xing felt helpless: "Okay, let's exchange." As he said that, he pushed his plate over.

This scene made Davilia, Norlandi, Loelle and others jealous, and they seemed to be secretly regretting why they didn't step forward to ask for an exchange.

"Thank you." Sylphy took it and smiled proudly. She even brought the plate to her nose and took a deep sniff. "It smells delicious."

Then he picked up a piece of beef with a fork, put it in his mouth, and just after chewing it, his eyes suddenly lit up: "It's delicious! This is the best barbecue I have ever eaten."

Although it sounded exaggerated, it made everyone around her feel moved. Especially when they saw her intoxicated expression, even those who had not thought about exchanging things just now felt a little regretful.

Although Wan Xing felt that the mermaid princess's screams were a bit exaggerated and deliberate, he thought that his grilling was okay. Although everyone used the same seasoning and ingredients, the control of the heat was incomparable.

The heat is extremely important for ingredients. If the heat is not enough, the meat will not be cooked, and if it is overcooked, the meat will be tough. It must be just right to lock in the juice inside, but still keep it crispy, so that it is truly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. This is the most perfect.

Wan Xing estimated that among the people present, only Luo Ai'er could do better with her extraordinary cooking skills. The others were definitely not as good as him, a fire magician, in playing with fire.

"You should also try my roasted corn." Xi Erfei had tasted the delicious roasted corn by Wanxing, and she also wanted to be praised.

"Yeah." Wan Xing nodded and took the roasted corn from her, but after just one bite, his expression changed immediately.

The roasted corn looked golden on the outside, but it was not cooked inside and was still astringent when chewed.

"How is it?" Sylphy looked at him expectantly, with an expression as if saying: Praise me, praise me!

Wan Xing was a little amused: "Sylphy, I don't know how to describe it..." He couldn't just say it was not delicious, as that would be too discouraging for the mermaid princess. After all, Sylphy was trying to please him, so this attitude was worthy of recognition.

Xi Erfei frowned, obviously guessing his dilemma: "Is my roasted corn really that bad?"

"It's not bad actually. It tastes okay, but it's half-cooked." Wan Xing said as he handed it to her and asked her to take a bite to try it herself.

Xi Erfei deliberately aimed at the spot where Wanxing had bitten the corn, but after chewing the corn kernel, her face turned red and she felt ashamed of her cooking skills. "Sorry, this is the first time I've baked something myself..."

Hearing this, Wanxing expressed his understanding. After all, Sylphy is a mermaid princess from an underwater city!

It is not convenient to cook under the sea, and she is a princess who has everything handed to her. She is full of BUFFs, so it is normal that she can't grill.

At this moment, Latifah Poseidon saw Sylphy make a fatal mistake and immediately ran over to remedy the situation, saying, "Niece, these are the mushrooms you just grilled. I brought them to you, otherwise they would burn."

These mushrooms were roasted by [Latifa Poseidon] herself. She worked very hard to facilitate the marriage between her great-grandson... and her niece.

Of course, she also has her own little tricks. Once the marriage is arranged, not only will her descendants once again have half of the mermaid royal bloodline, but this generation of mermaid princesses can also follow in her footsteps.

In this way, when she returns to the Coral Palace in the underwater city in the future, she will have a solid ally and will no longer have to fight alone or be isolated.

Seeing his aunt blinking at him frantically, Xi Erfei understood instantly. He took the roasted mushrooms from her and gave them to Wan Xing, saying, "Oh, by the way, this is the second time I roasted mushrooms. Try it and see if there is any improvement..."

Wan Xing naturally would not be kept in the dark and saw through the whole story of roasting mushrooms at a glance.

But he didn't refuse and took it.

Although the "baked by myself" was a lie, Sylphy's good intentions were real. It is so hard to accept the kindness of a beautiful woman.

After all, this is also the kindness of [Latifa Poseidon]. It is a gift from the elders, and the young dare not refuse it.

Wan Xing knew that his great-grandmother had good intentions and wanted to find him a wife. More importantly, she supported him in having a harem, so he didn't have to make the choice like Bai Xue. Wan Xing couldn't find any reason to refuse such a good thing.

He tasted a piece of grilled mushroom and his eyes immediately lit up. He had to admit that the taste was perfect, second only to Roelle who had the talent of [Universal Maid].

Come to think of it, with Latifah Poseidon being over 2,000 years old, if she just spent a hundred years on cooking, it would be enough to surpass most chefs.

It turns out that older people are more caring!

When Xi Erfei saw Wan Xing's satisfied expression, she immediately felt relieved. There was no need to ask any more questions. It must be delicious.

So she glanced at the people who were having a lively barbecue, and seeing that no one seemed to be paying attention, she quietly asked, "I'm curious, among the beautiful girls here, how many of them have confirmed their relationship with you?"
