Chapter 36 - Betrayal (1)
"Vincent!" A voice startled Vin, who was adjusting his clothes.
"Father! What's wrong? Why do you look so worried?"
"My son, there is chaos in the Black God Mountain. Father must return there immediately. You take good care of yourself, will you?" said Lord Jack as he brushed his son's silver hair.
"But why so suddenly? I still miss you, Father." Vin said while hugging his father.
"Calm down, Vin! Aren't Gilbert and the others still here? If the situation there improves, you may take Yushen to our Heavenly Palace," persuaded Lord Jack.
"Okay, Dad. But, if you need help, your son is ready to help," said Vin, patting his chest. Vin bragged.
"Hahaha... well my dear brave prince. Take care of your mother too! Your mother still wants to live with her two handsome sons." Lord Jack is speaking again
"Okay, Dad. I love you very much, Dad." Vin said and now tightened his hug on Lord Jack's burly body.
Lord Jack kissed Vin's forehead in return.

Sifeng walked unsteadily down the hall of the Mermaid Kingdom's palace.
In fact, Sifeng's head still felt dizzy. Sifeng also felt that his stomach was still queasy. Not knowing why, Yushen had the heart to leave Sifeng alone.
Sifeng passed several rooms in this Mermaid Palace. Suddenly from one of the rooms, a beautiful girl appeared. The girl ran and didn't notice Sifeng's whereabouts.
They collided and fell at the same time.
"Ouch!" The girl was complaining while rubbing her forehead
"Hey you! Do you think this is a field, huh? Just run around in the room!" Sifeng shouted, fuming.
"You who don't know yourself! What a strange guest! This is my palace! So what if I run around, huh? What's your problem?" The girl retorted angrily at Sifeng. The girl was glaring at Sifeng.
Damn, it turns out this girl is a princess in this palace. You're in trouble, Zhang Sifeng!

Don't trust someone without knowing what's in their heart.Trusting another person when he is always with us is a big mistake.
We can't even guess, they can even stab us in the back.
Well, as Lord Jack is currently experiencing. Lord Jack had put complete trust in Rufus. But in fact, the servant who had been loyal to Lord Jack, even now wanted to control the entire territory of the Black God Mountain.
Lord Jack was still cursing himself. How stupid he had been. Lord Jack has been blinded by the fake mask displayed by Rufus. Now the mask has broken. And right now, Lord Jack knew the truth. If Rufus was a traitor. Rufus was a spy stationed by the enemy in this Heavenly Palace.
Lord Jack has arrived at the Heavenly Palace, the Black Mountain of the Gods. Lord Jack stared intently at the figure of the man sitting on his throne.
"Rufus Rainvile! How dare you!" Lord Jack shouted, furious. Lord Jack felt that at this moment he wanted to suck all the energy of his betrayal trustee.
"How are you, Leader? Oh wrong, I'm the leader now. You'd better go back to your weak sons." Rufus said while laughing.
"FUCK!" shouted Lord Jack, furious.

Mermaid Palace.
Princess Sharon was still scolding Zhang Sifeng, because Sifeng was presumptuous of being disrespectful to the princess in this mermaid palace.
Now it was Sifeng's turn to look down, scared. Oh, how stupid this Sifeng is! Sifeng had dared to oppose a mermaid who reigned in this theme. Hopefully the princess doesn't curse Sifeng into a jellyfish.
Zhang Yushen who heard the chaos rushed over to them. Where there is commotion, there must be Sifeng. Yushen already knew that his younger brother was a troublemaker.
"What's going on here, um?" Yushen asked. Yushen turned his head alternately towards Sifeng and Princess Sharon.
Sifeng got up and now ran behind Yushen, asking for cover. Now, Sifeng felt that only Yushen could help at this time. Help Sifeng from that very curt princess.
"Hey, don't hide, Human! We're not done yet!" Princess Sharon snapped.
Yushen turned to Sifeng, asking for an explanation. Sifeng clasped his hands together, apologized and begged Yushen to protect him.
Ah, this has become a habit! Sifeng must be causing trouble again, Yushen thought. Yushen already knew his brother's disrespectful attitude towards anyone.
Yushen approached Princess Sharon. They got closer until they were only inches apart. Zhang Yushen parted Princess Sharon's hair and played with it. Yushen wrapped Princess Sharon's hair around his index finger.
"Your hair is very beautiful, Princess. So black as night," said Yushen, right in Princess Sharon's ear. When saying that sentence, Yushen also snuck in with a sexy sigh in the style of Zhang Yushen. The owner of the 'demonic charm'.
Princess Sharon's breath roared, her lips groaning. Really, Sharon couldn't take her eyes off Yushen's sharp eyes. Like being hypnotized by the human's good looks.
Zhang Yushen began to press his lips to Princess Sharon's neck, briefly. Yushen's breath, gave Princess Sharon the chills.
Princess Sharon had never seen such a deadly smile like that of a human. Princess Sharon closed her eyes, hoping that Yushen's charm would soon disappear.
Sifeng immediately ran away as his brother tried to distract the princess.
Guuuuunggggg!!
The sound of the trumpet disturbed Princess Sharon's mind who was still lost in the charm that Zhang Yushen displayed.
Princess Sharon's eyes widened. "No way! This country is under attack!" cried Princess Sharon, panicking.
"What is it, Princess?" Yushen asked, he also looked confused.
"That trumpet sound indicates that this country is under attack. Come follow me! We'll see what happens!" invite Princess Sharon to the human she just met.
Princess Sharon grabbed Yushen's hand. Yushen was silent as he looked around. Yushen looked for his brother figure. Where's A-Feng? Yushen thought.
"Come on, hurry! There's no more time!" cried Princess Sharon.
Princess Sharon pulled Yushen's hand back. Now, Yushen can only surrender and follow the princess of this country.

Sifeng had already fled earlier, when Yushen teased Princess Sharon earlier. When Sifeng was in one of the halls, Sifeng met Queen Eliz and Vin. They looked very panicked.
Really, Sifeng didn't know what was really going on in this place.
"What is it, Queen?" Sifeng asked.
"This palace is under attack. I ask you to hide quickly! Vin, invite Sifeng to hide in the Illusion Cave."
Queen Eliz said while holding Vin's cheek. Then, she also held Sifeng's cheek in turn.
"Sifeng, I have considered you as my son. Please take care of Vin for me! Think of Vin as your own brother, understand?"
Sifeng was stunned to hear Queen Eliz's words. So far, no one had been this gentle with Sifeng. Even by his biological mother, Sifeng was treated very cruelly. Moreover, by Madam Wang, Sifeng is always being tortured.
This gentle touch from Queen Eliz, these gentle words, really made Sifeng drift away. Drowning in the true love of a mother.
"Did you hear me, Sifeng?"
Sifeng looked nervous. He replied, "O-okay, Queen. I will protect Vin with all my life. Pass a message to Yushen, Queen! Tell Yushen that I am fine now, Queen."
"Okay! Stay in the Illusion Cave, no matter what! Wait until we pick you up! Mother loves you very much, My Sons," said Queen Eliz.
Queen Eliz kissed Vin's forehead and Sifeng's forehead, alternately. Again, Sifeng felt a strange feeling. Feeling comfortable and protected. If I may ask, Sifeng wants to have a mother like Queen Eliz in the next life.
"Let's go, Sifeng Bro!" Vin shouted at Sifeng, who had been daydreaming ever since.
Vin pulled Sifeng's arm. They ran towards the Illusion Cave. A cave hidden in one of the rooms, which is in this Mermaid Palace.

Princess Sharon and Yushen are now joined by Gil and the others. They gathered at the border of the Mermaid Land and the Bottomless Black Sea.
They welcomed the arrival of the King of the Land of Fotia and his army, who of course had no good intentions.
Now these two camps have been faced with a distance of only a dozen meters.
"What do you want, Feuer?" said the Mermaid Queen curtly at the king who ruled the Fotia Country, King Feuer.
"Hahaha...Is this the way to welcome guests in Mermaid Country?" King Feuer of Fotia, smiled slyly.
"Stop your bullshit! What's your real goal, heh?" Queen Eliz chimed in. The Queen was getting emotional.
"Calm down, Queen! Your servant just wants to visit. Didn't we agree to make peace?" said King Feuer, further infuriating the Gods before him.
"Say clearly your goal, King Feuer!" Gil was no less furious. Gil still vividly remembers how the King of Fotia injured Gil's beloved brother, the one in front of Gil's own eyes.

Elsewhere, Vin and Sifeng had come to a dead end.
"It's a dead end, Vin!" Sifeng asked, panicking. Sifeng was confused as to why Vin had led him to a dead end.
