Although it was only a song sung by a cub, the audience on the shore subconsciously started to slowly adopt a more serious attitude when listening. Some even became enchanted by the singing.

When they had first heard it, many adults of the mermaid race had thought that the cub's singing would be intoxicating once he grew up. But as they continued to listen, they felt that the cub's singing already had this kind of effect.

Not to mention that the strength of the singing had directly shown the cub's great talent, the mermaid cub's singing was also very beautiful. Its tone clean and elegant, it was almost unfair.

Speaking of... What about the parents of this cub? Pulling themselves away for the cub's enchanting singing, the audience on the shore began to look around. But they could not see any adult mermaid or merman go into the sea.

The parents of every cub who had gone up before this one, had all responded to their cub's singing.

Although there was no rule that the parents must do this, according to the customs of mermaid race, parents who loved their cubs would definitely respond at this time.

The cub had mustered up the courage to sing to their parents in front of so many people, if the parents who heard this song did not respond, it would be a bit hard to justify.

Moreover, the cub had put in a lot of effort into his singing, they could hear that the little mermaid must like his parents very much. If the parents didn't respond, how disappointed the cub would be..... As the parent who was currently being condemned in the hearts of the audience, Xie Tao was actually looking for a way to get close to the reef. His first reaction was to consider whether he would straightforwardly jump in and swim or not.

But when an adult of the mermaid race saw that he wanted to go into the sea, he pulled him aside and asked him about it. He then asked him to stay put and wait for a moment.

Xie Tao did as he was told and impatiently waited for bit. He could see that the little mermaid sitting on the reef singing was looking at him a little anxiously. Then a road leading to the reef at last appeared in front of Xie Tao's eyes.

Just like columns of stones rising up from the depths of the sea, round stone plates emerged from underneath the surface, creating a path between Xie Tao and the reef.

This was one of the environment simulators' functions. The administrators could manipulate the environment through the control panel when necessary.

Seeing a path appearing on the sea, the people on the shore were a little puzzled. Especially when a young man with black hair quickly stepped onto the path and started walking forward. The cogs in the minds of everyone present all of a sudden did not seem to be able to turn.

Wasn't it the parents of the cub who should go pick the cub up? Why was a human walking over to the cub? However, the mermaid cub sitting on the reef was indeed looking at the youth, this made some people gradually start to react a little.

It was an artificial reef which could be regarded as relatively large in size. After swiftly walking over on the path, Xie Tao smoothly stepped on top of it.

The reef was uneven. Careful to not let himself slip and fall into the sea, Xie Tao approached the cub who was sitting on the edge of the reef singing to him. Bending down, he picked up the little mermaid.
