The elder rfolk spoke in the human language with quite a stutter, but after a couple of sentences, he improved greatly.
The surroundings were extrely quiet, with all the rfolk watching honestly, not daring to make a sound.
Ji Yuan also stepped forward, once again cupping his hands toward the elder rfolk, before cautiously asking, "You, elder... can you speak the human language?"
But as soon as he finished speaking, he realized it wasn’t quite right, just as he was thinking of correcting himself, he saw the elder rfolk wave his hand.
"We were originally part of the human race; even though now transford into the rfolk race, we are still part of the human race, why wouldn’t I speak the human language?"
"rfolk race..."
Ji Yuan recalled the books he had read, which indeed described rfolk.
But most descriptions say that fishern saw rfolk with human bodies and fish tails at the seaside, and as soon as they were seen, they imdiately returned to the sea.
Or they say they fell into the sea and were rescued by rfolk.
There were no very detailed, systematic descriptions.
"I am the leader of the rfolk race here, nad... if spoken in human terms, it would be Yu Yuan. Originally, everyone in our rfolk race spoke the elegant language, but as we haven’t seen living humans for a long ti, it gradually beca that only the leader had to learn this elegant language."
Elegant language, so that’s what we call this... Ji Yuan silently took note, just as he thought about speaking.
He saw Yu Yuan turn slightly.
"Friend, you have co from afar and saved our clansn, you are indeed a distinguished guest of our rfolk race. Friend, please co with ."
After Yu Yuan finished speaking, he swam in the direction he ca from. As he passed by the rfolk, he said a few words in the language of the rfolk race.
Ji Yuan didn’t know what he said, he only knew that after he spoke, these mbers of the rfolk race bowed in unison towards him.
Moreover, they placed their right hand on their chest and gave a deep bow.
Fortunately, Ji Yuan was soone who had experienced many grand occasions and was not panicked, but nodded left and right and then followed behind the elder rfolk.
Once he passed by the many rfolk, they stood up, more excited compared to before.
They spoke continuously.
Sputtering a series of bubbles.
Ji Yuan was walking when he suddenly seed to sense sothing, he paused, tentatively channeling a thread of Spiritual Qi.
As a result... no Water Blade appeared!
There is no Water Blade here!
Yu Yuan sensed his anomaly from ahead and turned around, looking at him with curiosity, "Friend, is there anything that worries you?"
"No, I dare to ask, elder, is there truly no Water Blade in your esteed place?" Ji Yuan asked back.
Hearing this question, a smile appeared on Yu Yuan’s face.
"Indeed, this is the key for us rfolk race to survive here; outside is constantly under attack by Water Blade, but here is a peaceful land."
...No Water Blade, which ans mana can be used, bringing even more safety.
Ji Yuan nodded in admiration, "Indeed a treasure land."
Yu Yuan’s expression suddenly froze, as if he just thought of sothing.
He confessed, he was really dazzled by the sudden visit of humans and forgot to be cautious... even defaulted all humans to be good people.
At once, he rembered an ancestral teaching passed down from his ancestors.
Which is "Of all races in the world, humans are the most cunning!"
Ji Yuan saw his expression and knew he must have thought of sothing.
But so what if he rembered?
Ji Yuan had long used his Divine Sense to thoroughly explore here, and in the area his Divine Sense could probe into, the strongest... if converted to body cultivation, that would be Body Foundation Establishnt.
Indeed formidable, but unfortunately only one.
Now practicing boxing in a cave, Ji Yuan saw several tis with his Divine Sense and morized the boxing technique.
The boxing technique is useful, but for Ji Yuan it doesn’t serve much purpose anymore.
What intrigues Ji Yuan most about the rfolk race is the tattoos that can be engraved on the body to enhance strength.
"Elder, rest assured, I just accidentally fell into this Fallen Immortal Gully, and wanted to ask the elder how to escape; I have no intention of staying long, elder rest assured."
Upon hearing this, Yu Yuan’s expression eased sowhat.
"No problem, no problem, friend, speaking like this is treating us like outsiders."
Yu Yuan continued leading the way, eventually bringing Ji Yuan into a cave within the rock wall, only to discover upon entering.
One of the four guards with crab tattoos was already absent.
Judging by the direction, he should be going to fetch that Body Foundation Establishnt rfolk.
Ji Yuan wasn’t worried, just listened to Yu Yuan’s arrangent and sat down.
If nothing unexpected happens, this cave should be the deliberation hall of the rfolk race, or perhaps their... Ancestral Hall?
Once there, the remaining three guards gazed at Ji Yuan with curious eyes.
Yu Yuan remained slightly calm, first instructing several beautiful rfolk won to serve Ji Yuan sothing similar to tea water.
Ji Yuan was also curious, how could there be tea in the sea?
But it seed that the two did not mix.
Ji Yuan accepted it, dared not drink, and placed it on the table.
Yu Yuan chuckled, saying, "The last ti our rfolk race had a human visitor was my grandfather’s grandfather, and none of our current clansn have seen humans, so they are inevitably curious about you, friend; please don’t mind."
