I would rather betray the gods

Suddenly, Yuzu raised her finger to perform a spell.

Gradually, a faint halo appeared around him.

Wow, this technique doesn't look simple... Yuebai clasped her hands in front of her chest.

A moment later, a surprising scene unfolded—without any movement, only the giant cephalopod continued to swim slowly forward.

Forehead...

All Yuebai wants to say is, the universe is so dark because crows are flying everywhere. It couldn't be more embarrassing!

A moment later, Yuzu winked at Yuebai and said, "Coming."

What's here?

Looking around, Yuebai could only spot the giant whale, whose tail was about to disappear.

Yuzu slightly raised the corners of her mouth, reached out her hand towards Yuebai's bewildered face, but just before touching her face, she suddenly turned her hand and reached behind Yuebai's head, then flicked it gently.

Then there was a "thud," the sound traveling from near to far, lingering for a long time.

Yuebai subconsciously turned around and saw her own reflection on the black crystal-like wall.

The wall surface is as smooth as a mirror, but upon closer inspection, there is an inner layer of texture, resembling a honeycomb.

"This is... a phase control disk?"

Each God King Palace possesses such a black disc, used to deduce the movement of stars and macroscopically regulate the atmospheric fortune of planets. It can be considered the most precious treasure of each God King Palace, and ordinary people cannot see it. Therefore, this is the first time that Yuebai has come into such close contact with it.

The access rights to this thing are ridiculously high, like a huge chasm etched into his bones. Yuebai tried to touch it several times, but each time he reluctantly withdrew his hand.

Suddenly, Yuzu pressed down on the back of her hand, making her feel the so-called treasure.

"Your Highness?"

Yuebai looked at Youzi with a somewhat bewildered expression.

"It's just a dark, round plate, feel it all you want, I hate those stupid rules."

The pomelo gave her confidence.

"Then don't touch my hand so much!"

The key point of Yuebai's words was that people should not touch each other, and her cheeks flushed slightly as she spoke.

Actually, Yuzu cared more about these things, but she had just been so pleased with herself that she forgot to act. She quickly withdrew her hand in surprise, saying, "I admire you old-fashioned people. What era are we living in that you still care about touching hands?"

He wasn't lying; Yuebai was indeed born on a planet with a feudalistic development. But based on that jolt he just gave her, Yuebai felt that he was even more so, and she looked at him suspiciously.

What are you doing!

Like a young virgin being stared at intently by a man, Yuzu quietly turned away, trying not to let him see her too much.

Eh~~

Seeing this, Yuebai curled her cherry-like lips in disdain, about to say something sarcastic, but suddenly turned her expression and looked behind her, "Your Highness, the Great Chen Whale is swimming away!"

Yuzu then realized that the two had gone off-topic for too long, so she quickly turned around with her back to the phase control panel, pointed, and used the phase control panel as a megaphone to shout to Da Chen Whale, informing him that the area ahead was a "shallow water zone" and that continuing forward could lead to a runaway risk, so they should turn back.

This scene amazed Yuebai. She was surprised that the phase control panel could be used in this way, and she was amazed by the God King Pisces's wildly imaginative ideas.

She wondered if this was related to the fact that he was promoted to King of Kings in this era. The strength of the Milky Way and the Fairy was vastly different. In the face of absolute strength, any skill was futile. Perhaps only this Dream Lord in front of her could lead the Milky Way to find a unique way out.

"Awoo~"

A melodious whale call suddenly rang out among the stars; it was the Great Whale's response to Yuzu.

Startled from his thoughts, Yuebai smiled with delight upon seeing that this method of communication was effective.

"Who I am is unimportant; what matters is that you are in grave danger. Go back to deep space!"

Yuzu said in a very serious tone.

Are you communicating with the giant cephalopod whale?

Yuebai looked at Youzi's profile with a slightly puzzled expression.

Not long after, the Great Whale made a sound almost identical to the one before.

"I'm too small for you to see, but you can determine my approximate location by the sound I make."

Yuzu said again.

The giant whale, which was gradually moving away, adjusted its direction while emitting soft calls.

Yuzu slowly taught it how to move subtly until... the giant whale's eyes were facing them.

Such huge eyes, so big that you could even understand the structure of the eyeball just by looking at them.

Eh! ?

Yuebai, however, was more concerned with the outcome and asked Youzi with a look of astonishment, "Your Highness, you... can understand whale language?"

"Yes and no, but you can understand the meaning behind its call."

Yuzu gave a fair answer.

He himself found it strange, and only now did he realize that he could "understand" whale language.

Hey ~

Aside from a series of exclamations of amazement in his heart, Yuebai was unable to find the words to describe the scene unfolding before him.

If she had to give a reason, she could only say that the Pisces God-King and this Great Whale have an inexplicable connection.

This was a monologue in her mind, and at the same moment, Yuzu was unaware that she was scrutinizing her closely.

Seeing the giant whale blinking its eyes, trying to find itself, Yuzu thought to herself, "Yes, now is the time," and then burst forth with the star power around her, sending out a dazzling flame to guide it.

The firelight reflected in the deep eyes of the Great Whale, and the Great Whale finally pinpointed the exact location of the pomelo. Because of the firelight, the shape of the pomelo could also be vaguely seen.

Being a juvenile whale, the large whale immediately became excited, its violent shaking causing the surrounding undercurrents to surge.

Yuzu and Yuebai couldn't withstand such an impact and struggled several times.

Fortunately, Yuzu had a brilliant idea: it used the phase control disk to absorb the energy and then released it from the other side as a different kind of potential energy.

It's anyone's guess which unlucky planet will be affected by this energy. Planetary planets might be okay, at most their "hairstyle will be messed up," but meteorites and dust will be in real trouble—time to move!

"Take it easy, silly, we can't take your splashing around!"

On a whim, Yuzi named it "Silly Baby".

Unexpectedly, the big whale really liked the nickname, letting out a few joyful calls.

"Wow, so cute!"

Although she couldn't get a full view of the giant whale's expression, Yuebai could still sense how adorable it looked. If it weren't for its size, she would have loved to stroke its little head.

However, after its joyful cry, the giant whale darted around with its enormous eyes and suddenly came up with a wicked idea.

Suddenly, it gently shook its body, stirring up a perfectly timed undercurrent that left Yuzu and the other person in a sorry state.

How naughty!

Afterwards, Yuzu and Yuebai looked at each other and smiled helplessly.

Just when everyone thought the next interaction would be even more fun, the mischievous whale let out a cry that was almost a wail.

She's such a child; one second she's overjoyed and the next she's bursting into tears.

Do you understand what I mean?

Yuebai asked Youzi with her eyes.

Yuzu didn't quite understand this either, but it could sense that the creature wanted something from it, so it flew a distance away to take a look at the overall condition of this behemoth.

In the pitch-black space, the body of the Great Chen Whale reflects the light of the nearest star. Its entire body is black except for the faint shimmering of its outline, making it largely indistinguishable from whales in planetary oceans.

Following this logic, he considered whether the giant whale was troubled by "marine debris," and so on.

"What are those brown spots on its body?"

Yuebai caught up with them without them noticing and asked.

Only after being reminded did Yuzu realize that there was indeed a difference; she had just glanced at those spots and made them her body's characteristics.

"Could it be a barnacle?"

Yuzu is quick to realize things and quick to make connections.

"It's quite possible. Whales in the ocean are bothered by barnacles attaching to their bodies, and the giant cosmic whale might have the same problem."

Yuebai affirmed this.

Let's take a closer look!

Yuzu gave a signal with her eyes, and then transformed into golden light, flying towards the spots on the Great Star Whale's body.

The moonlight was accompanied by a silvery glow.

After all, it was a behemoth comparable in size to the moon. When the two approached the surface of the giant whale, it was as if they had landed on a small planet.
