Pearl Bay
The new king of the Pearl Kingdom in the deep sea of the Pearl Bay, overturned the ancestral precept of harmonious coexistence with the villagers of the Pearl Village who had been living by pearl fishing for generations. He also detained a pearl-fishing boy, Ah Hai, to deter the villagers from pearl fishing. Princess Lianzhu of the Pearl Kingdom secretly released Ah Hai.
The villagers failed to fish pearls due to the depletion of pearl-oyster beds, so the magistrate ordered to fill the Pearl Bay. The King of the Pearl Kingdom led the aquatic tribe to resist. Ah Hai died during the fierce battle with the king. Princess Lianzhu used her pearl to save Ah Hai and she lost her life. The old king of the Pearl Kingdom used his own pearl to revive Princess Lianzhu as a human, and married her to Ah Hai.
The magistrate was dismissed due to corruption, Ah Hai was elected as the new village head to rebuild the Pearl Bay. The aquatic tribe and the villagers have coexisted harmoniously since then.
