I woke up to find myself as the villain's older sister.

Chapter 178 (o?v?)ノ

Yun Qingyi didn't want to delve into that right now; she just wanted to see what the top-floor room looked like.

Thinking of this, he took the mermaid princess's hand and said, "Can I take you in directly?"

"Yes, senior." After a moment of hesitation, the mermaid princess nodded vigorously several times.

Seeing the mermaid princess nod, Yun Qingyi grabbed her hand and strode into the archway.

Seeing Yun Qingyi and the mermaid princess disappear into the archway at the same time, Ji Zhaoze and Yun Qingrou exchanged a glance and went inside as well.

After entering the room, Yun Qingyi looked around and almost thought she had entered the wrong place.

"Uh...you mean this ridiculously large place, with flowers, trees, and even coral reefs, is a room?"

Hearing Yun Qingyi's words, the mermaid princess chuckled and proudly patted her chest: "How about it, senior? Aren't you pleasantly surprised?"

Yun Qingyi said calmly, "No, thank you."

"Ah... As expected of seniors." Upon hearing this, the mermaid princess was not discouraged. Instead, she nodded with some emotion: "Seniors are clearly reclusive masters. It's normal that they can't stand this kind of place."

Yun Qingyi: "..." If possible, please don't misinterpret my meaning.

She looked at the mermaid princess, opened her mouth, but ultimately decided to keep it closed.

"By the way, senior." Seeing that Yun Qingyi didn't speak, the mermaid princess's eyes began to sparkle, and she chattered, "I heard every single word that Uncle Shang said just now."

Yun Qingyi: "..."

"That ancient sea area is really amazing. I really want to go in and take a look."

Yun Qingyi: "..."

"Moreover—" the mermaid princess drawled, looking at Yun Qingyi with a smile, "the seniors are still the same race as the legendary mermaids."

"That's even more exciting."

Yun Qingyi: "..."

Hearing this, she had no choice but to look at the mermaid princess and said with some helplessness, "And then, now that you know this, what do you want to do?"

Upon hearing this, the mermaid princess's eyes lit up and then gradually dimmed. She lowered her head, seemingly thinking about something, before raising her head to look at Yun Qingyi.

He shook his head and said, "Although I have many questions I want to ask you, senior, it's okay if you don't want to talk about them. I will keep your secrets."

Yun Qingyi raised an eyebrow: "It's alright, you can ask first. I'll tell you what I can."

"Really!" Upon hearing this, the mermaid princess immediately grinned and said with a smile, "Then I won't be polite."

"Senior, I want to learn your formation! I just heard Uncle Shang say that your formations are incredibly powerful."

Uh……

Upon hearing the mermaid princess's words, Yun Qingyi was taken aback. Although she was somewhat surprised, it made perfect sense.

Then he chuckled and said, "I thought you were going to ask something else, but if you just wanted to learn about formations..."

Yun Qingyi pondered for a moment. She had originally wanted to suggest that she go find Ji Zhaoze, since Senior Brother Ji's talent in formations was obvious to all.

But then I thought better of it and decided not to bother my senior brother. Although my knowledge of formations was far inferior to his, I was more than capable of teaching him.

"What's wrong, senior?" Seeing Yun Qingyi hesitate, the mermaid princess looked at Yun Qingyi nervously.

"It's nothing." Yun Qingyi shook her head. "If you want to learn, I can teach you."

After saying that, looking at the mermaid princess who was trembling slightly with nervousness, he couldn't help but tease her, "You seem very nervous."
