The cave remained silent, and only after a long time did a weak voice echo, "Don't be too heartless."
It was a woman's voice, but it sounded very old, with a painfully slow speed, as if she were spitting out each word one by one.
Bai Ruozhu felt a chill in her heart, unable to explain why, but she felt an unsettling discomfort from the person inside, though the reason for this discomfort was unknown to her.
"It's not related to me," Jade hurriedly distanced herself, seemingly afraid of the person inside, "It was them who said so."
The woman let out a cold laugh, a sound reminiscent of a rusty saw cutting through, somewhat unsettling.
"They haven't learned their lesson yet and want to be cursed again?" The woman still spoke slowly, with a labored breath, as if even speaking a little took effort.
"Please don't bring that up again. You know I'm not a Merfolk. We're all powerless. Just eat it," Jade said, pausing, "We have guests on the island, claiming to be from the Jiuli Clan."
