"Wait, I have something to discuss with you."
Wang Ye saw the other person about to leave and hurriedly reached out to stop them.
His action made Hai Yun'er very excited, yet she restrained herself from showing it.
Such a scene also surprised those around them.
Just a moment ago, everyone felt a wave of force as powerful as a machine gun. This fluctuation of power emerged merely from Wang Ye raising his hand.
It was as if the sea had come to life, unexpectedly under his command.
In this situation, Wang Ye finally realized that it was impossible to continue cultivating like this indefinitely.
He exchanged a few words with Hai Yun'er and then smiled faintly, inviting her to find time for a meal together today.
This news, almost like a stroke of luck, made those around them envious and proud of Hai Yun'er.
Soon, a rumor began to spread.
Some people from the Sea Dragon Country claimed that Wang Ye was going to be with Princess Hai Yun'er.
Although just a rumor, it caused forces on land to start feeling tense.
A hundred years ago, due to Wang Ye's arrival, the battles between land and sea forces ceased.
Some speculated that if Wang Ye were to be with the Princess of the Sea Dragon Country, they might start worrying about a backlash.
Their concerns were not unfounded.
Back then, all the forces on land joined hands to besiege the Sea Dragon Country, almost bringing it to the brink of destruction.
In such a situation, it was impossible for them not to overthink.
That afternoon.
Wang Ye and Hai Yun'er watched the sunset over a stretch of sea.
The scenery around them was pleasant, and the afterglow of the sunset made their shadows stretch long across the water, as if creating a permanent memory in that moment.
The breeze in the sky passed through, giving them an unprecedented experience.
"Do you know how to sing?"
Wang Ye suddenly turned to look at Hai Yun'er, asking this as he grasped with his right hand, turning seawater into a pipa.
His actions were not motivated by Hai Yun'er's beauty, but because he wanted to try to find a breakthrough point in his cultivation.
"Senior, I do! What song would you like to hear?"
Hai Yun'er stepped forward and hugged the pipa formed from seawater, speaking softly, her gaze enchanting.
Her fair fingers lightly touched the strings, immediately producing beautiful sounds.
Wang Ye didn't specify a song and motioned for Hai Yun'er to play and sing as she pleased.
Immediately, a melody that made people feel relaxed began to spread.
Hai Yun'er's singing carried a certain charming magnetism, gathering countless fish in under ten breaths on the sea's surface.
Among them, there was even a particularly strong type of Human Race that possessed formidable power.
As Hai Yun'er's singing grew more enchanting, the sea began to undergo earth-shaking changes.
At this point, no one knew Wang Ye's true intentions; they merely thought he wanted to enjoy the song of a beauty.
Countless Merfolk felt his aura, and no one dared to approach.
However, these fellows all recognized Princess Hai Yun'er, and the previous rumors made them believe Wang Ye really intended to be with Princess Hai Yun'er.
"Do you think this thing will happen?"
"Not certain, but looking at it from now, no one can say for sure what might occur between them?"
"If such a powerful figure were to join the Sea Dragon Country, it would undoubtedly make the land-dwelling folks even more hesitant to bully us."
A group of people spoke like this, further confirming the previous rumors.
Just as all the Merfolk and sea creatures were witnessing this, they noticed Wang Ye's body beginning to change.
An even more powerful aura appeared, causing all creatures within a kilometer radius to tremble.
They constantly retreated to distant places, not daring to have any conflict with Wang Ye.
This change in aura was indeed because Wang Ye, hearing Hai Yun'er's singing, seemed to have found clarity on a problem that had troubled him for a century.
This very reason made him want to hear Hai Yun'er's continuous singing all the more.
For some reason, Wang Ye suddenly became aware of a certain feeling.
This very feeling reminded him of a strange sensation he had while creating talismans.
This sensation was something he had always been unclear about.
If he could understand it clearly, his talisman-making would advance to the sixth order.
For a hundred years, cultivating had only advanced his talisman-making to the fifth order, which pained him greatly.
His cultivation reached a bottleneck, unable to find an opportunity to elevate to the initial stage of the sixth-order Emperor Lord realm.
"Alright, let's stop here today. Let's go back! Right now, I have something to consult with your father about."
Wang Ye said this, causing a small sense of elation in Hai Yun'er's heart.
She initially thought it would be a compliment to herself.
Unexpectedly, Wang Ye used a telepathic message to tell her he wished to pursue dual cultivation.
That news struck like a bolt from the blue.
Although Hai Yun'er also thought about being with Wang Ye, they hadn't had much time to foster their connection before jumping straight to the point; it seemed a bit hasty.
However, she didn't object. After all, it was something she had also been hoping to happen.
Their eyes met, and a peculiar feeling arose.
"Actually, I intend to cultivate my concentration. If you mind, just consider that I never mentioned it."
Wang Ye smiled and explained, sending a telepathic message to Hai Yun'er.
When she heard this, a hint of bitterness welled up inside her, yet she did not show any displeasure.
Even if this didn't mean Wang Ye had affection towards her,
Hai Yun'er still cherished their connection deeply. In her view, no matter for what reason, just being able to be with Wang Ye made her very content.
Two hours later.
Wang Ye and Hai Yun'er arrived at the Sea Dragon Kingdom Palace.
After some conversation, the King of the Sea Dragon Country had no objections.
This matter wouldn't cause any harm to the Sea Dragon Country, but would rather yield better outcomes due to Wang Ye being with Hai Yun'er.
Obtaining an answer so smoothly left Wang Ye a bit bewildered.
He stared dumbfoundedly at Hai Yun'er, suddenly becoming aware of some absurdity.
Yet having already expressed this, there was no turning back, so he might as well join Hai Yun'er for a stroll.
The two wandered around the Sea Dragon Kingdom Palace for a long time, and only after the stars dotted the sea, did they begin a deeper mutual understanding.
Wang Ye spoke of the doubts in his cultivation over the past century and even identified the difficulties in pursuing talismans; these realizations made him understand that some things couldn't be rushed.
Therefore, while proposing dual cultivation with the aim of cultivating concentration, he still felt a bit dazed.
He was too focused on cultivation, lacking a touch of social awareness.
Otherwise, considering his situation a century ago, he certainly wouldn't have said such a thing.
"Would you regret it?"
"Senior, ever since you saved the Sea Dragon Country a hundred years ago, I have had no regrets about meeting you."
Hai Yun'er heard Wang Ye's words and responded cleverly.
She defused the current awkwardness and even used past events to express that even if Wang Ye had made more excessive requests, she would have complied.
