It was hard to make out, but Mira clearly saw something that resembled both a fish and a human. With these things speaking in some foreign language, she was sure that it was an intelligent race and among the aquatic intelligent races she knows, they most closely resemble mermaids.

Before they knew it, they were quickly surrounded and had tridents pointed at them. They could also sense that these mermaids were around the Peak-Xiantian Stage while their leader was actually in the Core Formation Realm.

Mira didn’t know if they could win since they are probably many times better at fighting in the sea than them. She could barely react to them surrounding her so she was sure that they would just get pummelled if they were to fight.

The three of them exchanged glances and ultimately decided to store their weapons. With that, the tension around the 8 of them dropped quite a bit.

“#&$%! ***** #^$&”

One of them tried to say something, but Mira just looked at gave her a look that she had no idea what she was saying.

The head mermaid nodded her head once and gave a signal for them to follow her. Mira looked at her two companions and shrugged. This expressed that Mira wasn’t against following them. The other two felt the same way and nodded.

Like this, Mira’s group followed the 5 mermaids deeper into the ocean.

Mira guessed that they probably don’t get visitors often as they didn’t apprehend them or at least do something to prevent them, unknown people, from causing trouble… Not that she had any intention of causing trouble in the first place.

It didn’t take them long to come across a massive opening, almost like the entrance to a cave. The opening itself was at least several hundred meters in diameter. The only thing that made them realize that this wasn’t a cave was the terrifying aura that radiated from whatever this was.

It wasn’t as terrifying as Kayda’s, but it was definitely above the Core Formation Realm. Mira couldn’t actually tell what realm of power this thing was at since there wasn’t any life force or Qi coming from this thing. For all she knew, this could be where an immortal beast took its last breath, or maybe this place was this thing’s grave.

Whatever it was, Mira could objectively say that this would be a great place to stay if she lived in the sea. The aura surrounding this beast is enough to ward off any troublemakers and the **ing thing is massive! There shouldn’t be any problem making a small city within this corpse!

Once they reached the mouth, the head mermaid turned to them and began speaking…

“@&%…”

Only to realize that they couldn’t understand her.

She just shrugged and continued to lead Mira and her group into the mouth of the dead beast.

Mira was surprised that the inside of the giant beast was still dark. She was sure that there would at least be some semblance of light or city, but it seems she guessed wrong.

Well, that’s at least what she thought until she felt her body pass through a thin film-like barrier. She stumbled and almost face-planted before eventually catching herself.

After catching herself she was able to take a look around and couldn’t help but feel shocked by numerous things.

It seems there was a barrier that prevented water from entering this place as the inside was completely dry. Well, maybe not completely dry as Mira could make out quite a few spots where water was located, but for the most part, the inside of the beast was devoid of water.

The next thing that surprised her was the fresh air within this place. This could only mean that the mermaids have come up with a way to produce fresh air underwater, which probably means they are a more advanced race.

The last few things that surprised her were that there was a massive city that looked like something out of a fairytale right in front of her. This along with mermaids walking on two legs made for a shocking and magnificent scene.

“Wow!! This place is amazing! It’s even more fantastical than Kayda’s place!” Maria exclaimed with her eyes shining.

“To think we were able to come across a place such as this while in traversing this god-forsaken ocean! As expected of traveling with Mira! Our hard work always pays off!” Celaine said in a complicated tone. She wasn’t sure if she should feel glad about always going through various types of hell so they could find places like this or not.

Either way, she’d continue following and listening to Mira even if she knew she might die at any moment.

Mira took her eyes off of the surroundings and focused on the mermaid leader that dragged them here.

The mermaid leader noticed this and looked at her, but something seemed different. The mermaid was blushing and fidgeting while avoiding eye contact.

Mira looked at the other 4 mermaids and as soon as her eyes swept across them they started blushing and averted her eyes.

“Haaaa…” Mira sighed in exasperation and pinched the bridge of her nose, feeling a headache coming on.

“Oi! I’d like to speak with you, but I don’t understand your language. Understand?” Mira said while pointing at her throat along with the mermaid’s throat.

The mermaid leader seemed to understand what Mira wanted and got a little flustered. She quickly left and came back with a beautiful necklace and a stack of papers.

The mermaid leader put the necklace on Mira while breathing heavily and gave her the papers. The papers had pictures of objects along with what seemed to be the pictures used in a sentence.

Mira looked at the mermaid leader for confirmation. The mermaid nodded and pointed at her throat and necklace.

Mira understood and began identifying the things on the paper into the necklace. It took Mira a good hour to complete it but wasn’t sure what to do next. She just turned to the mermaid leader.

“I’m finished,” Mira said, but the language that came out was still her original tongue.

“Ah! Yes, I understand you now, Goddess. I’m glad that we can finally converse.” Mira heard the mermaid speak in a sweet voice while blushing. It seemed that the necklace translated her words and directed them into Mira’s head, which was quite odd.

The only thing that caught her by surprise was ‘Goddess’.

Hearing this, Mira had the urge to leave this place as soon as possible. She felt no ill-intent coming from the mermaids, but the hearts in their eyes and bated breaths made them look like bitches in heat.

‘We are all girls! Why are you looking at me like some sort of breeding stud?!’ Mira thought to herself and took out her scythe, but she was just a bit too slow.

The mermaid leader leaped at her and Mira felt something soft and delicious land on her lips while a slippery object invaded her mouth.

“Mmmph… Get… The… Mmph Fuck… Off of… Mmmph… MEEEE!!!” Mira started beating on the mermaid that was currently wrapped around her body like a snake. The other mermaids were preventing her scythe from taking this bitch’s head, but they still held no ill-intent and only looked jealous of the mermaid currently making out with Mira.

“Ahh… Ahhh… I apologize Goddess… It seems I was unable to control myself and forced you to do something unsightly with this lowly one… It’s just your aura, beauty, pheromones, and majesty are too much for me to handle… If you could please restrain yourself a bit while covering up that may be for the best… Again, I apologize so please allow me to make this up to you and your Mistresses!” The mermaid leader got off of Mira while breathing heavily and started kowtowing in front of her and banging her head against the ground.

Right now, Mira and the girls were essentially naked as clothes hinder their movement while in the water.

Mira had temporarily forgotten about this and immediately put on her mask, black Taoist robes, a pair of black gloves, and started to tie up her hair. She then did her best to restrain anything that was leaking from her body such as any type of aura, but she didn’t even know she was emitting pheromones or majesty and didn’t even know how to control that. All she could do is try and prevent any little aura from leaking out of her body.

Once this was taken care of the mermaids calmed down a bit, but they still couldn’t forget the feeling that Mira gave off.

One of the weaker mermaids still couldn’t take it and lept towards Mira, but this time Mira was in combat mode and jabbed her scythe into her body.

“We didn’t come here to cause trouble, but if you insist on continuing this unsightly behavior then it will be my pleasure to start a massacre and end as many of these **ty mermaids as possible,” Mira said while sticking her scythe into the ground, preventing the impaled mermaid from moving.

But Mira was surprised by the reaction that the other 3 gave off. Instead of fear or anger, they looked more like kittens who have submitted to a tiger, waiting to be dominated. Some were even looking at the impaled mermaid with envy like she was lucky to be pierced by her.

Even said mermaid was releasing a scent that would cause men to go crazy with lust.

“Wha-Wha-Wha-What the hell is happening?!” Maria and Celaine studdered, barely comprehending what is going on.

Mira continued to look at these mermaids with utter disgust and disbelief. In all of her years, she’s never experienced a situation like this where a group of females is lining up to be sexually dominated by her.

Normally, Mira would just be irritated by such reactions, but one of them actually made a move on her!! She doesn’t even know what to do in this situation! If it were a male who did such a thing, she wouldn’t stop until either he was dead or she was.

But even though these mermaids are looking at her with eyes full of lust, it’s more like they are looking at the ultimate stud. Like they couldn’t control their primal desires.

She also didn’t think it was wise to immediately start killing them as soon as she entered the place, but she’s not just going to sit there and be taken advantage of.

There were also a couple of things that made her feel a sense of crisis and impending doom if she were to start a massacre.

One, the mermaid leader here is in the Core Formation Realm. Now that Mira’s body has been tempered by lava and her physique has improved, she has confidence in being able to fight against a Core Formation Realm expert, but that’s only if they are normal.

Like right now, Mira could feel how tough the mermaid that got impaled by her scythe is while only being in the Foundation Realm. In a real fight, dealing with her might’ve taken Mira quite a bit of effort not to mention there are 3 more that are stronger than her.

She can also sense many people in the Foundation and Core Formation Realm further into the city and could easily guess that there are beings that are above the Core Formation Realm, though she didn’t know how strong and could only assume.

If these mermaids wanted to kill her, she might be able to take down 5-10, maybe a few dozen if lady luck is on her side, but she would eventually get captured or killed.

She could try to just kill these 5 and leave, which is probably her best option.

Or she could try to resolve this situation and milk as much out of this place as possible. The only problem with this is that there are too many variables and unknowns.

“Now how should we resolve this, little fishies?” Mira said with an evil smirk.
