Help The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama (by Lotus Seeds) novel Chapter 199

Chapter 199: Chapter 193: Fiancée

After Shen Tang exited the spaceship, a system prompt sounded in her mind.

[Beep! Congratulations to the host for completing the side mission: kiss goodbye with Lu Xiao, reward: Superpower Breaking Potion!]

[Beep! Congratulations, the affinity level of Lu Xiao has broken through to [like], rewarding the host with a Sealing Talisman! The reward has been automatically issued to the system backpack, please verify it yourself!]

A hint of surprise flashed in Shen Tang’s eyes; she did not expect Lu Xiao’s [like] breakthrough to be here.

When dealing with such a quiet and reserved man, it really requires taking the initiative!

Jia Lan saw her blushing face, his expression suddenly turned cold, clearly understanding the good things the two had done inside!

"You used all your efforts to get rid of me just to flirt with another male?" Jia Lan’s voice was dangerous, as he grabbed her chin and kissed her fiercely!

...

After dawdling for a while, the two arrived at the seaside.

Looking at the deep sea, Shen Tang swallowed nervously and stepped back two paces to look at Jia Lan, "How should I go down?"

"Eat this." Jia Lan’s palm condensed into a water-blue bead and fed it to her.

The bead melted upon entry, and Shen Tang immediately felt a surge of power roaming through her limbs and bones, as a faint blue light seemed to envelop the surface of her skin.

The light coalesced into a shield, protecting her within.

Jia Lan took Shen Tang, and they leaped into the sea.

The light on her body immediately shielded the seawater from outside and could automatically filter fresh air from the sea.

Aside from her body floating in the water and having trouble controlling her direction, there wasn’t much of a difference from being on land for Shen Tang.

Jia Lan transformed into a mermaid form and held her tightly as they sped forward.

The deep sea was cold and dark, while places near cities and tribes emitted tiny glimmers of light.

There were many glowing plankton and various large Luminous Pearls hanging over the streets and corners, making the bustling area as bright as daylight, which shocked people immensely.

"Am I seeing things? How come it seems like I see the figure of the Prince?"

"It really is the Prince!"

"Prince Jia Lan has returned!"

"How come there’s a female by his side?"

"Could she be his companion?"

"No way, rumors say the Prince has a terrible relationship with his companion and is constantly talking about divorce."

The guards of the Imperial Palace saw Jia Lan coming and quickly went to report this good news to the Empress.

Jia Lan landed outside the palace gates with Shen Tang.

Due to various reasons such as marriage and trade, there were some Land Clan Beastmen living in Sea Country internally, and later for convenience, most cities in Sea Country had barriers established to isolate seawater. Shen Tang stepped out from Jia Lan’s embrace and tried to walk a few steps, roughly gaining control over her movements.

Jia Lan wanted to take her into the Imperial Palace but was stopped by the guards.

"Your Highness, outsiders cannot freely enter and exit the Imperial Palace; Your Majesty said for you to go in first."

Jia Lan frowned, just about to angrily reprimand, but Shen Tang stopped him.

She said thoughtfully, "It’s okay, you go in first, I’ll wait for you here."

It’s her first time in Sea Country, and she doesn’t want to conflict over this matter, leaving a bad impression on the Mermaid Empress.

Jia Lan comforted in a low voice, "Just wait a moment, I’ll be back soon."

"Okay."

Shen Tang waited outside the palace gates.

The guards’ gazes occasionally fell on her, with unmistakable scrutiny and a hint of heat.

What a beautiful female!

Her looks and demeanor were quite different from the Mermaid Clan, not seemingly from any other sea tribe, and she didn’t bear any Sea Clan marks, could she be a Land Beastman?

Who brought her here?

Whose companion is she?

A strong amazement flashed in Jia Lin’s eyes, completely entranced.

Feeling the displeased gaze from the female beside him, he quickly returned to his senses, looked alert, and asked coldly, "Who are you, and why are you near the Imperial Palace?"

Shen Tang replied truthfully, "I am Shen Tang, the Princess of the Night Glow Empire, and Jia Lan’s companion, specifically invited by the Empress to visit the Sea Country Palace."

"What? You say you’re that hideous freak?" Jia Lin exclaimed in disbelief.

He clearly remembers that ugly female being quite unattractive, yet this current female before him was ravishingly beautiful, nearly leaving him stunned.

Shen Tang said indifferently, "Believe it or not, I am right here; if you still have doubts, I have identification proof."

Lisa snapped back to reality and glared viciously at Shen Tang, her beautiful face showing a grim and distorted look, "Oh, so you are the bitch trying to steal Brother Jia Lan from me!"

Shen Tang frowned and replied coldly, "Steal? If I remember correctly, he married me justly as part of an alliance, with a proper marriage ceremony."

Lisa glared at her resentfully, biting her lip tight, suddenly letting out a cold laugh, disdainfully mocking, "You truly believe Brother Jia Lan willingly married you? He just used you."

"Now without S-level spiritual power, you’re worthless to him."

"You wouldn’t know, would you? This time the Empress had him bring you back just to tear apart the alliance between the two nations."

"Brother Jia Lan never told you, did he? In fact, he has another fiancée in Sea Country, and that’s me."

"I grew up with him, mutual affection, and this marriage was recognized by Jia Lan."

"He promised personally that he would come to marry me."
