Chi Jiao Ji, the Mermaid Queen, becoming the next Sea Country Lord was almost a certainty
Facing the overwhelming might of Dai Gyo Tou Rou, none of the Sea Tribe dared to challenge her authority within the Marine Country.
Even the Handwashing Demon, known for its considerable strength across the sea straits, was thoroughly disciplined by Dai Gyo Tou Rou, subsequently behaving and abandoning any aspirations for the Sea Country Lord's throne.
Later on, rumors like "The third Munakata is not a Divine Descendant but rather a material, whoever finds it shall have the right to ascend to the throne of Sea Country Lord," dissipated on their own shortly after Chi Jiao Ji ascended to power.
Time swiftly passed by, nearly a century.
Chi Jiao Ji grew into an extraordinary leader.
As a Munakata, she possessed innate dignity and grace, her eyes as deep as the ocean, filled with endless wisdom and insight, her singing voice soft as the waves, capable of soothing the raging seas.
