Hearing the Zimmerman family’s words, they felt fear and tension, yet remained resolute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like Harrison Ward and Noah Zimmerman, who showed firm determination,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We’ve made up our minds.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is the sea our clan has lived in for thousands of years. To protect this sea, we should do our part.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes! We have no regrets!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young Merfolk shouted, and Harrison Ward was even preparing to remove his Heart Protecting Scale, only for the next moment to be hit by a huge wave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, the young Merfolk were swept to the other side by the wave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking again, they saw several Elders of the Merfolk glaring furiously at Harrison Ward’s group,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is absurd!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is the Heart Protecting Scale something that can be removed casually?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noah Zimmerman and others thought the Elders were there to stop them and couldn’t help but say,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Elders! They set up the barrier for us. We don’t need to move our entire clan thanks to these people. This is our sea, should we really do nothing?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noah Zimmerman also said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Elders! We want to do our part for this sea too!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you’re worried about being unable to protect ourselves without the Heart Protecting Scale, I’ve been on land for years and won’t encounter any danger. I don’t need demonic power, so using my Heart Protecting Scale is most suitable!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he finished speaking, Harrison Ward softly rebuked him,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You need to protect yourself more on land! There’s no need for you to do it; since it was my idea, it should be me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The younger ones began arguing fervently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett Jennings and the Zimmerman family couldn’t get a word in, watching as the approaching Elders, looking grim, finally interrupted the young ones,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Silence! While we old folks are still around, there’s no need for you young ones!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the pollution wasn’t cleansed, these old folks would inevitably die from severe contamination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though stubborn, their decision to relocate back then was only to preserve the Merfolk clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that there’s no need for relocation, they should do what they, as Elders, ought to do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying so, regardless of the young ones’ reactions, the three leaders began to remove their own Heart Protecting Scales.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bronze cover is vast, and a single piece of Heart Protecting Scale is certainly insufficient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To repair the bronze cover completely, they would require the Heart Protecting Scales from several young Merfolk, but these old folks are different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Elders, their Heart Protecting Scales are sufficient for full reparations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three Heart Protecting Scales, stained with Merfolk blood, glimmered brilliantly in the sunlight. Seeing their actions, Harrison Ward’s group had tears in their eyes,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Elders!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three, having forcibly removed their Heart Protecting Scales, seemed to lose half of their vitality, with signs of aging appearing on their faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, when looking at the young ones before them, their stern gazes rarely showed affection,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You are the future of our Merfolk clan, and in the future, this sea will still need your protection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, don’t rush.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t rush, for when you are fully grown, there will be a day when you will protect the clan in our stead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tears fell from the corners of their eyes, forming pearls mid-air, and silently falling into the sea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gregory Xander and the Mystical Sect members were all moved by the scene before them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Zimmerman family, no longer hesitant, respectfully accepted the three Heart Protecting Scales and quickly began repairing the bronze cover.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until sunset, as everyone’s spiritual power was nearly exhausted from being passed along in turn, the Zimmerman family finally completed the bronze cover’s repair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fog barrier, initially broken due to the bronze cover, condensed again without flaw as the suppressing artifact entered the sea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, the Cathay barrier, set at sea, was established.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the barrier complete, the Benedict Beast, which had been temporarily suppressing the pollution, also retired successfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Samuel Chalmers completely purged the remaining pollution, from then on, the Cathay seas, as well as its homeland, would no longer be tainted by the Flower Country’s pollution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And as the pollution could no longer escape, the accumulating pollution would soon lead the Flower Country to ruin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But none of this concerned them anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sunset sank into the sea, coloring the sea in a magnificent brilliance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Red clouds and golden sea,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>just like the golden ocean once dyed by the Golden Light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sensing the change in the sea, various sea creatures leapt joyfully at sunset.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett Jennings and her companions couldn’t help but smile at the scene before them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the splendor faded, people from various places began to leave for home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett Jennings also prepared to leave with Dashiell, but just as she was about to, Samuel Chalmers unexpectedly called out to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Throughout this month, aside from matters related to setting up the barrier, she’d barely interacted with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though they still lived in neighboring courtyards, Samuel Chalmers realized for the first time that she was so distant from him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was even a tendency to grow increasingly distant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t want to disturb her intent to protect the Cathay sea; since she didn’t come to him, he didn’t take the initiative either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, with the Sea Barrier complete, he wouldn’t fall into slumber again for a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted… to sort out the issues between them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dusk glow gradually turned from golden to pink on the sea surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Samuel Chalmers stood on the sea dyed pink by the dusk, looking at Scarlett Jennings, extending his hand towards her once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his palm was the Heart Stone she had returned to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t understand what he meant, and heard him say,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You said last time, if I was willing to endure your Harvey Bolt, you’d take back this stone.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Samuel Chalmers looked at her, his Golden Light seemingly tinged with red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You missed last time, so it doesn’t count.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett Jennings pursed her lips, her eyes calm, and asked him,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So what do you want to say?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Samuel Chalmers said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I would like to ask you to strike with lightning once more, and if you hit, I hope you will accept it again.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He spoke of “if you hit,” but they both knew in their hearts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as Scarlett Jennings made a move, even if she intentionally missed like last time, he would ensure that the lightning—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>struck him accurately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was his apology to her.\u003C\u002Fp>",1264,"2026-06-10T07:18:50.097Z",1,"novelbin.me","f007d6bd767baa6fc593d3706df2ede8db87f7018ab4341e4a6ad4baf609db9d","the-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-chapter-915","the-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-chapter-913",1286,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-cover.jpg"]
