Raising Beast Husbands with My Space — The Villainess Becomes a Beloved Favorite-Chapter 408 -

Wei Jinmo felt at ease only after hearing this sentence. He knew that although his father, the Sea Emperor, usually had to weigh various relationships, he would not lie to him.

Moreover, he also understood the rules left by the ancestors of the Sea Clan, knowing there could be no mistake.

Thus, Wei Jinmo could relax.

Only then did he pull Su Muyao to sit down beside him.

Even as they sat down, Wei Jinmo still did not let go of Su Muyao’s hand.

Su Muyao felt a bit embarrassed to act like this in front of the Sea Emperor and wanted to withdraw her hand, but Wei Jinmo held it tightly.

Wei Jinmo bowed his head and looked at Su Muyao with eyes as gentle as water, filled with tolerance and deep affection.

Su Muyao met those ocean blue eyes, feeling they were so beautiful and mysterious, impossible not to be immersed in.

Thus she forgot to withdraw her hand.

The Sea Emperor saw this scene and sighed inwardly. His son was perfect in every way except he was too sentimental.

Fortunately, the other party was an Immortal Phoenix female, something rare and elusive.

It was also a fate belonging to him.

The Sea Emperor coughed lightly, and the two returned to their senses.

The Sea Emperor began to explain: "According to the ancestral rules, now that you have become the Crown Prince of the Sea Clan Royal Family, the next successor of the Sea Emperor, all those punishments no longer count."

"I did not appoint you as Crown Prince before, do you blame me?"

"If I had appointed you Crown Prince at that time, perhaps you wouldn’t have suffered those penalties."

Forty-nine lashes of the Law Whip fell on him; the Sea Emperor’s heart ached too.

The human heart is biased; when the princes were very young, he favored Wei Jinmo.

To this day, it’s still the same.

But he was first the Sea Emperor before being a father.

He couldn’t let the Sea Clan fall into chaos because of his personal bias.

If the timing was off, he couldn’t appoint the Crown Prince. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Wei Jinmo earnestly spoke: "I don’t blame you. I understand father has unavoidable difficulties."

"Moreover, the power of the noble families is great; father must suppress various forces and maintain balance, which is not easy."

What’s more, he knows that his father has been using himself as a link between major families, balancing various powers since he was young.

He sacrificed being with the females of these families, and they also did not enter the harem, allowing them to continue managing their families and marrying husbands.

Father didn’t bother with all this; he only thought about the stability of the Sea Clan.

He understands father, but if he were him, he would never do so.

His female partner would only be Su Muyao, no one else.

Furthermore, he also realized that if it weren’t for this incident, Mu Yao might not have opened up to him.

With a sigh, the Sea Emperor said: "You’ve always been clever since childhood, yet previously you showed little interest in many things and thus did not participate. Now you..."

"No matter, this is good."

The Sea Emperor knew Wei Jinmo had great talent. Previously, he thought Wei Jinmo would live on land and inherit the Wei Family estate.

Privately, he thought this was good as it allowed him to stay away from disputes and live a stable life.

But it seems, having stirred emotions, he chose to return to the Sea Clan.

Now, the Wei Family estate falls upon him, and everything of the Sea Clan also rests on his shoulders. Over the years, being the Sea Emperor had its difficulties, and naturally, he understood the burden of the Sea Clan was not light.

His other sons, taught by their mothers, were more inclined towards the family powers each supported.

Thus, he never made the decision to choose who would be Crown Prince.

Now he doesn’t need to choose; the Sea God’s Divine Artifact has made the decision for him.

It was Wei Jinmo.

The Sea Emperor didn’t want Wei Jinmo to misunderstand, so he explained: "Previously, without any backing from Sea Clan forces behind you and with inadequate personal strength, appointing you as Crown Prince would place you in greater danger."

"The intention to align you with a powerful family was preparation. The Whale Clan is not behind any prince’s force. If they support you..."

Wei Jinmo wasn’t interested in discussing matters of the Whale Clan, nor did he want Su Muyao to hear about them, so he casually said: "Father!"

The Sea Emperor seeing Wei Jinmo didn’t want him to mention the Whale Clan, thus didn’t mention it.

He continued: "Tonight you did very well; now you have the strength and defeated their family’s strong clan elder in front of everyone, intimidating all."

"In our Sea Clan, strength matters. If your strength is formidable enough, they will submit to you."

"Especially the Sea God’s Mark Trident symbolizes you as the Sea God’s inheritor, at this time appointing you as Crown Prince is without opposition."

"The Sea God’s Divine Trident reflects the Sea God’s will."

There were many emotions in the Sea Emperor’s heart: "In the past hundred thousand years, our Sea Clan never had such a person, the Trident more so had no trace."

"Father believes you can bring a fresh change to the Sea Clan."

"Father will have to relinquish responsibility then."

At this moment, the Sea Emperor felt relieved; he had been anxiously working and stressed, fearing to let down the ancestors.

He felt he at least had raised an outstanding son.

Su Muyao looked up at the position of Wei Jinmo’s forehead; indeed, there was the mark of the Trident, emitting a bluish light, making Wei Jinmo appear even more mysteriously noble.

The system spoke: "Host, you are an Immortal Phoenix, and it should be you who chose Wei Jinmo to break the body’s constraints, awakening the Sea God’s power."

At this point, the Sea Emperor seemed to recall something and asked excitedly, "By the way, how did your injuries suddenly heal, and instantaneously enter the Spirit Transformation Realm?"

Wei Jinmo said, "Father, it was my wife who saved me, healed my injuries, and assisted me in elevating to such strength now."

"We have formed a Contract; she is my wife."

The Sea Emperor looked at Miss Su beside Wei Jinmo, possessing beauty capable of overturning a kingdom. One glance could leave one entranced; simultaneously, there faintly lingered immortal energy about her.

The Sea Emperor seemed to think of something; his heart was shocked: "No wonder, no wonder..."

"You formed a Contract with an Immortal Phoenix and received the Immortal Phoenix’s blood fusion, thus triggering the latent inheritance power of the Sea God within the body, gaining the recognition of the Divine Artifact."

"All this thanks to Miss Su."

The Sea Emperor solemnly said: "Miss Su, thank you for saving my son."

At this moment, the Sea Emperor dared not say to let Miss Su marry his son.

An Immortal Phoenix, it’s still quite shocking to him.

"Except if the Immortal Phoenix hasn’t matured yet, there might be Beastmen or some forces targeting them, caution is necessary."

"I have ordered to block the news, prohibiting discussions about the Immortal Phoenix."

With the Scepter in hand, the Sea Emperor could still manage the seas.

Su Muyao spoke: "Thank you, Father."

She called him "Father" generously, which made the Sea Emperor extremely thrilled.

Wei Jinmo then understood. It was because of him she was willing to call him Father, his heart moved deeply, lowering his gaze at Su Muyao, his affection even more intense.

The Sea Emperor excitedly said: "Good, good."

"You presently need a Soul Gathering Lamp, most likely wishing to revive someone."

"Just having a Soul Gathering Lamp isn’t enough, a Soul Gathering Ceremony must be initiated, the Soul Gathering Lamp ignited, come, let me take you to the Priest Hall, there’s something the High Priest can assist you with."

Su Muyao was taken aback, not expecting Wei Jinmo becoming Crown Prince would bring such advantages.

"Of course, the High Priest doesn’t usually intervene with Sea Clan争斗, but the High Priest appears to bear the Sea God’s will, now acknowledged by the Sea God’s Divine Artifact, if you request it, he should assist you."

If it weren’t for this condition, the High Priest wouldn’t help.

...

Arriving at the Priest Hall, upon seeing the High Priest in silver robes, Su Muyao felt those eyes were cold and indifferent, seemingly overlooking the world.

As if nothing could stir his emotions.

But when his gaze fell on Su Muyao, he seemed to recognize something, and his expression changed.
