Chapter 484 - 483: Seeing Yusen! (Part 1)

The black gas resembled an ethereal Demon. Its voice was piercing, filled with rage and furious indignation, but the words it spoke were utterly foreign. Yu Zhizhi couldn’t understand a thing.

The icy barrier protecting Yu Zhizhi was incredibly sturdy. It was the power of the top-tier talent, Glacier—an extremely Rare case of Soul Resonance.

Yu Zhizhi was stunned for a moment, then she quickly realized—

’Sensen’s here!’

Outside the Glacier Barrier, the Demon shrieked in grief and fury as countless ice blades rained down from above, pinning its body against the floor-to-ceiling window. The black gas stuck to the gilt-gold, vintage-patterned glass struggled frantically, a series of hisses rasping from deep within its throat.

The temperature in the dining room instantly dropped to freezing. Yu Zhizhi saw a white figure appear in front of the Glacier Barrier.

Jialou, who had been gripping his sword hilt at the side, stared at the male who had suddenly appeared.

Upon realizing he was of the Mermaid Clan, Jialou slowly eased his grip on the hilt.

’Though he’d never seen him before, given how Rare Mermaids were, this must be the Prince Merfolk of the Deep Sea Empire’s Undersea Kingdom—the future Sea Emperor.’

’He was also the Lady Lord’s fiancé.’

’He had been invited to the territory this time to complete their bonding ceremony and become the Lady Lord’s—’

’third Beast Husband.’

Yusen coldly watched the black Demon pinned to the giant floor-to-ceiling window by the ice blades. It furiously shot a dark laser beam straight at the space between his eyes—

But the Mermaid Youth did nothing. He remained perfectly still as the laser, upon coming within half a meter of him, froze inch by inch, quickly turning into a long icicle.

A few seconds later, the icicle suddenly shattered, making a sound like breaking glass.

"Who sent you?" Yusen’s voice sounded like it came from the depths of the icy sea.

The Demon roared a few times, stubbornly refusing to answer the youth’s question.

Yusen lost his patience.

A layer of white frost coated his eyelids. "Die."

Against the vintage glass window, the Demon’s body froze instantly. A mere two seconds later, it shattered with a loud CRACK, just like the icicle, leaving a scattering of ice shards on the floor.

The dining room returned to its previous calm.

The Glacier Barrier also slowly turned transparent until it vanished.

Yusen let his aggressiveness subside. He turned to the side and looked at the little rabbit behind him.

Yu Zhizhi was still staring blankly at the floor-to-ceiling window, where only the gilt-gold carvings remained, as if the black Demon she had just seen was merely an illusion.

Sensing the Mermaid Youth’s gaze, Yu Zhizhi shifted her eyes to Yusen.

Seeing his familiar face, a smile lifted the corners of her mouth. "Sensen~"

Yu Zhizhi called out sweetly.

She took two steps forward to stand by Yusen’s side, noticing that his figure had grown even more tall and straight. His handsome, delicate face was gradually shedding its boyishness, replaced by a touch of maturity, leaving him somewhere between a youth and a man.

Yusen lowered his head slightly. The look in his eyes made him seem like a completely different person from moments before. His ice blue eyes were like spring water in March, gentle and tender. "Are you alright?"

’His little rabbit is so timid. Was she scared?’

Yu Zhizhi replied in a soft voice, "I’m fine."

’Yusen got here so fast. I thought I’d have to wait a few more days.’

’It seems Lord Shen He left this time to deal with this black Demon’s accomplices.’

Seeing the two of them together, Jialou quietly retreated to the dining room entrance, leaving them to have a moment alone.

Yu Zhizhi looked at the ice shards on the floor. ’Who would have thought that this was the Demon’s "corpse"?’

’Has some troublesome enemy come to the territory?’

’Are they after me?’

As if he knew what she was thinking, Yusen raised his hand and placed it on the little female’s head. He bent his knees slightly to bring his gaze level with hers. "Don’t worry. I’ll be staying here for a while. Leave everything in the territory to me."
