In fact, Elder Reef's words were quite subtle.

Shui Lan is not only a descendant of the mermaid king Hippo, but also the patriarch of one of the affiliated tribes of the king of Hippo. The power in Shui Lan's hands is too great, and rashly marrying outside will inevitably cause a major loss to the mermaid clan, even if it is a mermaid who has always advocated the freedom of marriage and love, in matters related to the interests of the whole clan, it will definitely focus on the overall situation and give priority to interests. King Xibo categorically would not allow Shui Lan to marry a foreign clan, let alone accept the fact that marrying a little-known Xiao Yu would make it difficult to become a main family, after all, it would cause serious damage to the majesty of the mermaid royal family, and make King Xibo feel disgraced.

"We are born in the world with many constraints and constraints, and freedom is relative, even if it is a mermaid." Elder Reef continued, "The tribal patriarch has a very high status and influence, and there are many things that he cannot make his own decisions. Even if we are forced to marry due to political needs, our king will find someone of equal status and the right person. I admit that you are very good, but now you are still a little worse than the forces behind you. You see, it's hard to marry a mermaid to a terrestrial race, especially a terrestrial race, that doesn't know the details. Unless you take the initiative to ask King Hippo to lead the whole clan to submit to the merfolk clan, as long as the Terran becomes a subordinate clan of the merfolk and obeys the command of King Hippo, then the problem can be solved. With the blessing of the king, mankind will surely develop more rapidly, and the peace-loving king Hippo is happy to support a race that also needs and has potential. ”

"Oh, I see what you mean." Xiao Yu's eyes narrowed slightly, his gaze quickly became cold, and he said lukewarmly: "You want me to cut off relations with Kexin?" Do you want me to take everyone to the Crystal Sea, so that humans can become subordinate races under the jurisdiction of the merfolk? ”

Elder Reef said, "I know, it's a bit abrupt, but on the whole, it's not a small benefit to the development of humanity, especially for you personally. With your talent and potential, you will definitely be appreciated and reused by King Hippo, she will give you endless heaven and earth, I wish you a helping hand, let your strength grow, more rapidly, at that time, you can not only become the master of mankind, but also manage the tribe of the Song of the Sea with Shui Lan. The strength of the king's affiliated tribes is unimaginable, and there are at least fifty elders in the Sea Song tribe whose strength is far above mine, not to mention the population and resources......"

"Needless to say!"

"Something that many people dream of." Elder Jiao frowned slightly: "You won't refuse, will you?" ”

Xiao Yu closed his eyes and let out a long sigh, then opened his eyes, his blood-colored eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he asked calmly: "Elder Jiao, I want to ask you a question, how much do you know about the human race?" ”

Elder Reef said frankly, "I have never understood, judging from everything I have seen today, the Terran should be a kind race. ”

Xiao Yu said intriguingly: "If you know more about human beings, I bet you won't be saying what you just said." ”

Elder Reef was puzzled: "Why? ”

"You say the Terrans are kind? Perhaps. It's just that this race will be more fickle and complex, more potential, and more powerful than you think. Xiao Yu paused and continued: "If humans are allowed to move to the islands or lands near the Crystal Sea, I bet that within a few decades, the Crystal Sea, which has been ruled by the mermaid race for tens of thousands of years, will change hands. ”

Such words are offensive to King Hippo, and they are simply rebellious.

Elder Reef suddenly became angry and said, "Although I am willing to help you and Shui Lan, there are some things that please don't talk nonsense, otherwise you will definitely pay the price!" ”

"Please forgive me for the wording, which is in no way offensive." Xiao Yu was unafraid of Elder Jiao's anger: "This is a fact. The human race may be weak, or inconspicuous, or greedy for life and afraid of death, or may be inactive. But without exception, our bones are full of arrogance and rebellion, even if incompetent, even humble, deep down there will be the seeds of ambition and ambition, this seed is hidden very deeply, some people themselves can not find it, but it is 100% existing, and can never be erased, as long as the time is ripe, it will sprout like a spring seed, this ** will not be satisfied, it will grow endlessly! ”

Elder Reef: "What do you mean by that?" ”

"The Terrans will not be as powerful as the Orcs, nor will they be loyal and sincere to the Merfolk, and will not forever succumb to a more powerful being. We cannot be reduced to an inferior race forever, let alone be enslaved by any race. At this moment, there is an alien human force in the city that can defeat me, and they will definitely look for an opportunity to deal with me and the people around me, and ask the position of the Heavenly City Lord to take his place. Humans have moved to the Crystal Sea, and when their strength reaches or approaches the level of King Hippo, the Crystal Sea cannot be at peace. As long as we have the strength to compete with the higher-ups, it is only a matter of time before we fight back. Because, we prefer to control our own destiny. Xiao Yu said unceremoniously: "After King Hippo discovers the characteristics of human beings, will she let such a race grow up in her hands?" And with all due respect, is there only one woman by King Hippo's side? ”

"King Hippo is a queen in her own right." Elder Jiao frowned slightly and said, "There are more than five hundred of her male attendants. ”

Hippo turned out to be a queen? Xiao Yu suddenly had a feeling of surprise, he always thought that Hippo was a big man. But Queen Hippo is really powerful, and she can maintain more than 500 men, which is really fierce.

"Don't be surprised, except for a few races, the more spouses the more the merrier. This is because the greater the number of mates, the greater the chance of giving birth to descendants of noble blood. The first generation of the king's children was called the royal family. They will directly inherit part of the king's power, and they are born with outstanding talent and noble blood, and this group of people will be an important force to lay the foundation and stabilize the whole clan, and almost all of them will remain in the king's tribe to strengthen the king's rule and power. In addition, due to the noble bloodline of the royal family and the royal family, it is very easy to have talented people like Shui Lan, and these potential people may be the kings of the next generation. Elder Reef paused for a moment and continued, "His Majesty Hibo is the king of the clan, and the only king of the merfolk clan. Even if you don't want to, regarding the rise and fall of the race, the patriarchs, the elders, and the royal family will constantly ask Your Majesty to expand the number of attendants, so there is nothing surprising. ”

The royal family plays an extremely important role in a race.

The king's breeding will deplete its own strength, but once the royal family is born, it is born with ten times or even higher spirits, and it can grow to the fifth-order strength in a short time, so giving birth to the royal family is the most effective way to develop power, increase fresh blood, and add strong people to the clan. The loyalty of the royal family is reliable, and the greater the number, the more stable the king's position will be, and the king will select the best person from the royal family to be cultivated as the next generation of kings.

The fertility of the king is not strong, even if the orc with an extremely fast reproduction speed, after having all the conditions of the king and successfully becoming the orc king after stepping into the sixth order, the fertility will drop instantly, and it is often several years, or even more than ten years, to give birth to a descendant. Because the stronger the strength, the more the body will change, and gradually from ordinary life forms to higher life forms, the ability to reproduce will become lower and lower, and it is said that demigods are unable to give birth to offspring.

Increasing the number of mates is an effective way to increase the chance of a royal birth. Only some races with poor reproductive ability, such as elves and dragons, cannot reproduce in large quantities, so they will concentrate their energy on a descendant, consume a large number of elves from the time of conception, and even lose a lot of lives to increase their potential, and will be directly cultivated as a prince from the moment of birth.

Therefore, the wood elves' Hilaria and the night elves' Dinarien can skillfully use the power of the king with only the fifth order, and the fifth order has most of the conditions of the king, and the fifth order is endowed with the sacred weapon of their own clan, because as early as the time of the mother's womb, the elf king spent a lot of essence blood to cultivate them.

"I know what you think, if you can become the king, let alone Shui Lan, His Majesty Hippo is to marry a few excellent daughters to you, then no one will dare to object." Elder Jiao knew what Xiao Yu was thinking, and his expression was a little strange: "It is undeniable that you have the potential to become a king?" But you are only a fourth-order strength, and it will take at least a hundred years for a king to be sealed since ancient times......"

"In less than two years, I have crossed over from a humble person who doesn't even possess the strength of the first order to the peak of the fourth order." Xiao Yu directly interrupted Elder Jiao and said with a calmness: "Within five to ten years, I will be crowned king!" ”

As he spoke, a faint Wang Wei was released.

Xiao Yu's Wang Wei was too weak to influence Elder Jiao, but it was enough to bring a strong shock in his heart.

Elder Reef was stunned, "It's only taken you less than two years to achieve what you are now?" ”

"When I first met Shui Lan, there was only a third order."

"This ...... How is this possible! ”

Elder Reef was shocked.

"Elder Reef, please understand. I will not be loyal to King Hippo, and I will not be immediately happy. Xiao Yu looked directly at Elder Jiao, "You really have to think about Shui Lan, for the sake of the Song of the Sea Tribe, for the sake of King Hippo and the Crystal Sea, what you have to do now is not to try to persuade me, but to hide this matter well." As long as I am given some time, I will definitely marry Shui Lan back from the Crystal Sea in front of the whole mermaid clan. ”

Five to ten years is not a long time.

Elder Jiao glanced at Xiao Yu deeply, "How sure are you?" ”

Xiao Yu smiled indifferently: "Ten percent!" ”

Elder Reef felt a strong confidence in his eyes, and for some reason, a gut instinct was telling him that this young man was reliable and trustworthy. He is only a fourth-order strength, has an immortal body, the power of a king, and can even cast a king's seal attack, and has a rare talent in time and space, if he really steps into the sixth order and succeeds in becoming a king, his achievements will definitely be above King Hippo!
