Chapter 457: Chapter 222: Killing with a Borrowed Knife (Part 1)
"Definitely not... If it weren’t for that annoying person, Xiao Feng definitely wouldn’t have got the position wrong..." Telekinesis is something the little one has been playing with since a young age, when has he ever failed? The position and explosion range calculations are extremely precise!
Others didn’t hear the sound, only thinking the girl just mouthed something, but to their brothers’ ears, it was different. That sound had an indescribable sharpness, like sandpaper scraping against a window, the screeching sound made their goosebumps rise.
This wasn’t all, his telekinesis seemed to become unstable under that sound, which is why Huaifeng’s explosion point setting was off, creating chaos was successful, but almost got himself caught in it. Fortunately, it only injured his upper eyelid, otherwise, he would become a one-eyed dragon.
Su Jiameng noticed the two little ones’ description, her eyes flashed with a hint of danger, but she quickly concealed it, then asked Zhu Mengtong, "Mrs. Liu, maybe... You know the identity of the girl who did this to the two kids?"
The other person looked at Su Jiameng for a long while and suddenly sighed, saying, "I think it’s better for your family to move away from Qiming Star soon; that child has a big background, otherwise, she wouldn’t be causing so much trouble in Qiming Star and getting away with it."
Su Jiameng found her evasive, frowned, and asked, "No matter how big her background, there should be a limit. Could this child be an heir of the Mermaid Interstellar Alliance? If not, why is the Human Alliance so afraid..."
Zhu Mengtong gave her an incredulous look, then said, "How could that be, not to mention she’s not an heir of the Mermaid Alliance, even if she were the leader, she wouldn’t dare act so arrogantly in the Human Alliance! That child is from the Augustus Star System’s Shangguan Family."
"Oh?" Su Jiameng uttered softly, her expression turning even more meaningful, asking Zhu Mengtong a dumbfounding question, "The Augustus Star System’s Shangguan Family? Even I, a mere commoner, have heard of this name. But I’ve always heard the Shangguan Family has an iron-fisted approach, adhering to the ’Different tribes hold alien hearts’ family principle, full of disgust for other interstellar races... Given this, why would a direct line of the Shangguan Family marry a mermaid and have such a spawn!"
Zhu Mengtong felt her ears must be malfunctioning... Indeed, the girl from the Shangguan Family went too far, Zhu Mengtong couldn’t overlook that either, but the family’s unconditional partiality was frustrating, yet so far, it hadn’t resulted in any fatalities.
Though Su Jiameng labeled the girl a "spawn," Zhu Mengtong secretly agreed, but saying the girl is a hybrid of human and mermaid was hard for her to believe. The Shangguan Family is famous for despising species outside the Human Family, they are staunchly hawkish. Decades ago, during friction between the Human Alliance and Mermaid Alliance, the Shangguan Family contributed their efforts significantly.
Moreover, several outstanding members of the Shangguan Family died in the undertow of those frictional battles, their hatred for mermaids is deeper than most. How would anyone among them have relations with mermaids? Not to mention, even if there were relations, mermaids are highly toxic, any intimate relations with human men would only result in death by poison!
"That child is definitely of pure human race, the first rule of the Shangguan family creed is not to marry anyone with impure bloodlines, the second is not to marry anyone of an alien species... The current Clan Leader has a strict personality, how could such a thing happen..."
Su Jiameng sneered as she said, "If that spawn didn’t have mermaid lineage, how can she use the sonic attack exclusive to mermaids?"
Though telekinesis is formidable, it’s not without nemesis. But the mermaid’s sonic attack isn’t considered an absolute nemesis; it only affects the strength of telekinesis to a certain extent. The girl’s age is slightly older than the two buns, plus she’s somewhat uncanny herself, her sonic attack doesn’t stop the telekinesis from detonating but can affect it, which caused the error in Huaifeng’s telekinesis detonation position!
Sonic attack? Zhu Mengtong’s expression changed suddenly, "You can’t just say this without basis... I was present at the time too, if it really was a mermaid’s sonic attack, I would have sensed something even in the worst case. But there was nothing unusual at that time."
Su Jiameng secretly turned her lips but didn’t want to explain further. Whether she is a mermaid-human hybrid, Su Jiameng was unsure, but during a previous investigation of nine individuals, besides Yun Cuixi who has been surfaced and monitored for years, she and Changxi found other clues over the years, one of which leads to the Shangguan Family of Augustus!
