2419 Dazzling Silver’s Honesty!

If Brilliant Gold had faced Light Green Umber and the other emperor-class mermaids, she could have handled them even without Dazzling Silver’s support.

A thread of hope unconsciously formed in Brilliant Gold’s mind. She prayed that Dazzling Silver, who had always felt affection for her, would not reveal what she had done to Lin Yuan. Even if she did reveal her action, she could bend the truth or smooth over the details.

When the same action was recounted in different ways, it would produce different reactions. If Dazzling Silver was willing to paint her in a better light, she could make it seem as though Brilliant Gold wanted to go to the Deep Chasm Sea Eye out of concern for Lin Yuan’s safety. As a merman thearch, Lin Yuan would have no reason to fault her for having such intentions.

Even if Light Green Umber, Blue Umber, White Brocade, and Red Beauty wanted to oppose her, they would never send her to her doom. Not even Light Green Umber, who had always been the biggest thorn in Brilliant Gold’s side, would do so.

Brilliant Gold had already thought about what she would do to ameliorate Lin Yuan’s negative emotions toward her once Dazzling Silver helped her to fudge the truth.

It was true that Brilliant Gold wanted to snatch the opportunity from Lin Yuan. However, she was not the type to cross the line.

She also felt the necessary respect toward this merman thearch.

She dared to scheme and have wicked thoughts against mermaids of the same level of bloodline because she had been sitting comfortably on the throne of the first-ranked mermaid of Mermaid Forbidden Sea for too long. She had been placed on a pedestal for such a long time that it went without saying that she became increasingly self-serving.

Light Green Umber, White Brocade, and the rest were not thinking about Brilliant Gold at all. All of them were solely focused on the blessing that Dazzling Silver had just received from Lin Yuan.

Apparently, it was possible for a mermaid thearch to help mermaid emperors evolve their bloodlines! Moreover, they did not need to attain Lin Yuan’s affection for this method to work.

If they had to rely on gaining his affection to evolve their bloodlines, none of them would dare to try to gain his affection regardless of whether they could catch his fancy.

King-class mermaids all hoped to receive the favor of emperor-class mermaids. Instead of courting the emperor-class mermaids, the king-class mermaids were waiting to be picked.

The mermaids with inferior bloodlines had no right to court mermaids with more elite bloodlines.

Luna had numerous opportunities to approach Lin Yuan during their journey to Mermaid Forbidden Sea. However, she refrained from revealing her true feelings, fearing any inadvertent slip. All she could do was patiently await his decision. She would never dare to broach the subject unless he showed interest in her.

Furthermore, mermaids had another trait: it was rare for those with more elite bloodlines to feel affection toward those with inferior bloodlines.

Mermaids were all obsessed with beauty and were all hedonistic. However, they were not disloyal, nor did they cheat. Mermaids were always faithful and rarely parted from their chosen partners.

If Dazzling Silver and Brilliant Gold had truly ended up together, she would not have been affected by Lin Yuan even after laying her eyes on him.

When the factor of attaining a more elite mermaid’s love to evolve their bloodline was not considered, it would be difficult for a mermaid with more beautiful features, as well as bearing the favored hair and scale colors, to fall in love with an inferior mermaid. Rather than falling in love with another mermaid, they could save all of their adoration for themselves. Why would they choose to be with someone else when they were already so beautiful?

This was a characteristic that all mermaids shared.

White Brocade, Light Green Umber, Blue Umber, and Red Beauty all believed that their beauty was nonpareil.

The mermaids’ two most worshiped colors had appeared on one person.

Light Green Umber looked at Dazzling Silver and thought, I hope Dazzling Silver is smart and doesn’t do anything dumb that will waste Dark Blue’s reward.

It was best to act carefully when responding to mermaid thearchs.

Brilliant Gold had always used Dazzling Silver to raise her own authority. If Dazzling Silver still allowed herself to be used by Brilliant Gold, there would be no hope for her! If she did not have a will of her own, she would be nothing more than a shell even if her bloodline broke through to thearch-class.

Furthermore, Lin Yuan had instructed his sea beast to remain with them on the mountain and act as a witness to everything that happened.

Even if Dazzling Silver tried to help Brilliant Gold, Lin Yuan’s sea beast would not permit any deception.

If she had been the only one standing against Brilliant Gold, the latter would have used brute force to head to Deep Chasm Sea Eye.

If even she could guess what Brilliant Gold would do, there was no way that Lin Yuan would not be able to guess.

If Brilliant Gold had gone, she might have prevented Lin Yuan from evolving his bloodline.

The mermaids were always united. They were all either friends or lovers. However, the prerequisite to being on the same side was that they were all working toward the same future that benefitted all mermaids.

Light Green Umber’s opposition to Brilliant Gold was partly because they did not get along. However, a larger reason was that Light Green Umber could not watch Brilliant Gold selfishly burn the path to evolution for a merman who was trying his best to evolve his bloodline.

Dazzling Silver looked at Brilliant Gold and saw that she was tapping her index finger. This was a sign that Brilliant Gold had established with Dazzling Silver. Once Brilliant Gold did this, it meant she wanted Dazzling Silver to speak up on her behalf.

When Dazzling Silver had been in love with Brilliant Gold, she saw her as perfect and did not think that there was anything wrong with Brilliant Gold’s actions.

But now, Dazzling Silver realized that Brilliant Gold was not repentant and was still trying to manipulate her. As such, she felt rather disgusted.

Dazzling Silver had paused for a full 12 seconds after Lin Yuan had asked her his question. It was not that she did not know what to say, but that she was trying to give Brilliant Gold a chance to explain herself and apologize to Lin Yuan.

However, it was clear that Brilliant Gold did not understand her intentions.

Dazzling Silver sighed and said honestly, “Lord Thearch, Brilliant Gold was the only one who tried to head to the Deep Chasm Sea Eye. But we stopped her.”

Dazzling Silver saw Brilliant Gold looking at her with astonishment and disbelief. Dazzling Silver could not help but sigh to herself. What kind of image of myself did I present to Brilliant Gold? Was she actually led to believe that I would deceive a merman thearch just to help her?

Dazzling Silver shook her head and added, “A fight almost broke out when we tried to stop Brilliant Gold.”

After Dazzling Silver was done speaking and Eternal Source did not have anything to add, Lin Yuan knew that Dazzling Silver had spoken candidly and had not left anything out.
