After this trip, Silver had become even steadier than before. In the past, he merely had a cold nature. Now, there was an added hint of maturity and restraint, making one unable to read his emotions.

Though, he no longer asked about the problem of getting a spouse, and even fended off a lot of trouble for Bluepool, keeping the tribe in good order. It would appear that he had become the second-in-command in the tribe.

He was extremely talented and had become a three-striped beastman in his early twenties. At the age of 30, he had earned his fourth animal stripe.

At this time, there were about 10,000-20,000 adult mermen in the tribe, more than half of which were still stripeless. 40% were one-striped beastmen, and only a few hundred were two-striped beastmen. As for three-striped beastmen, there wasn’t a single one.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that Silver’s talent was 1 in 10,000. At least, Bluepool had never encountered someone like him in his previous tribe. He was of the same caliber as their tribe leader Gold.

At present, Silver was still slightly inferior compared to him. Now that Bluepool had the time to train, his capabilities leveled up significantly. But Bluepool knew that Silver would surpass him sooner or later.

Flowers of a rich variety of species bloomed everywhere on the island. With the twitter of birds and the fragrance of flowers, this place was like a paradise. Bluepool had used 40 years to meticulously decorate this place to the way it looked like now.

Holding An’an’s hand, Bluepool strolled leisurely on the island. An’an paid attention to the flowers around her at all times and would skip joyfully every now and then. Bluepool truly adored her response to her surroundings.

“Be careful, there’s a tree branch ahead,” reminded Bluepool.

With an extremely good eye for plants and dead objects, An’an took the initiative to avoid it. When she finally saw a stretch of grassland where no flowers were growing upon, she pulled Bluepool along and ran over excitedly. She pounced to the ground and rolled around a few times, causing her clothes to become disheveled.

Bluepool first watched her with a smile, then gradually, his gaze dimmed, and his mouth started turning dry.

Looking around, Bluepool tidied An’an’s skirt for her. Yet, his body involuntarily pinned upon her. Once again, he succumbed to An’an’s beauty.

“Forget it. I’ll just treat it as making a female baby.” Even though, in all 30 years of giving birth, they had yet to produce one. Bluepool basically had not much hope for it by now.

An’an understood Bluepool’s body language very well. She widened her eyes and gazed at his face, her legs already clamped around his waist.

The two of them rolled together inevitably. This time, it ended very quickly, because Bluepool heard footsteps.

Mermen ultimately weren’t perfect enough on land. The sound of their footsteps was one such major flaw, and even Silver couldn’t avoid that.

Bluepool tidied up An’an’s clothes and hugged her dazed self in his arms, before looking towards Silver expressionlessly.

“What is it?” asked Bluepool.

“Father, a group of mermen is hanging around in our territory. Should we chase them away?” Silver said respectfully without a trace of defiance.

Even though Bluepool was vigilant towards him, he couldn’t find any fault with him.

“I’ll go and take a look. Try not to clash with them.” As Bluepool spoke, he stroked An’an’s head reluctantly and bent over to plant a kiss on her forehead. “Wait for me. I’ll bring you delicious seaweed when I come back.”

An’an merely pouted in response, before going back to admiring the scenery.

Bluepool and Silver left one after another. They had just entered the sea when a few mermen brought An’an to the sea. An’an was a little reluctant to go to the icy sea, but she didn’t make a fuss and obediently went with them.

Bluepool led the strongest team in their tribe and swam outwards under Silver’s lead.

Bluepool suddenly asked, “You guys are almost turning 40, right?”

Silver responded with an “Mm”.

“It’s time for you to find a spouse.” Bluepool suddenly felt that he had been very selfish towards them. According to custom, they should also become An’an’s spouse.

But how could he bear to share her with others when he had raised An’an since young?
