The eyes of Di Tian and Bi Ji briefly met in the air. The astonishment and complexity in Bi Ji's eyes had not yet receded, but in the golden pupils of Di Tian, there was a bottomless calm, as if this scene had been anticipated.

He did not respond to "Yuni"'s eager defense, as if the earth-shattering mental message just now was just a breeze blowing across the lake. He just stood there quietly, with his hands behind his hands, and his eyes fell back on the "Yuni" in the force field, as if he was inspecting a strange object.

For a long time, just when the consciousness of Yuni (who can only be referred to as "Yuni" or "it" for the time being) almost solidified again in the endless anxiety and fear, Di Tian's low, majestic, and emotionless voice slowly sounded, directly ringing in the depths of his consciousness, as if directly engraved on his soul:

"Your regrets and excuses are known to me."

The voice was calm, but it carried an undoubted weight, making Yuni's consciousness tremble involuntarily.

"However, Swan died because of you. This is a fact." Di Tian's tone was still calm, but it made the air around him seem a bit heavier. "Since you first came to Star Dou, you don't understand the rules of this place and Emerald Swan Clan, and you are in a strange state, and you are not clear-headed. I will not care about your inappropriate words for the time being."

"However, the death penalty can be mitigated, but the living crime cannot be escaped. Your life and death depend on my thoughts."

"Next," Di Tian paused slightly, and two rays of real light suddenly shot out from his golden eyes, as if to look directly at the surface of Penetration "Yuni" into the depths of his soul, "I ask, you answer. There is a lie, or there is an intention to conceal..."

He didn't finish his words, but the terrifying dragon power that suddenly strengthened and seemed to be able to freeze and crush the soul had already explained everything. The force field tightened slightly, and Yuni felt as if his consciousness was grasped by invisible hands. If there was even the slightest movement, it would instantly collapse.

Bi Ji was silent on the side, her face still a little pale, but she did not interfere verbally, she just watched quietly, pain, scrutiny, and a trace of imperceptible fatigue intertwined in the depths of her emerald eyes.

"First question." Di Tian's voice was like a cold iron stone, striking Yuni's consciousness, "What happened in the deep sea? Where is Deep Sea Demonic Whale King now? What is your relationship with him?"

The question went straight to the core and was more specific, focusing especially on its relationship with Deep Sea Demonic Whale King. Di Tian obviously heard something unusual from its eager explanation.

Its consciousness trembled violently under the pressure of Di Tian, but the desire to survive made him force himself to calm down and organize his words. He must seize this only opportunity, maybe be honest, and gain a glimmer of hope. He did not dare to hide the key facts at all, but he must pay attention to the wording, which should reflect the value without being too shocking:

"Deep Sea Demonic Whale King... fell." He first confirmed the most important fact, and then paused briefly to convey complex emotions, "As for my relationship with him... I fought side by side with the strong men under his command, and we were considered... allies. Before he fell, I tried to rescue him, but unfortunately... failed."

He first positioned himself as an "ally" fighting side by side with the strong men under Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, and mentioned that he had tried to rescue Demon Whale. This not only reflected his position and certain strength, but was not too exaggerated.

Its consciousness fluctuations were slightly obscure, as if it was considering the words "Deep Sea Demonic Whale King... Some of the strong men under his command recognized some of my... ideas and abilities. When I was trying to integrate the remaining troops and find a way out." He conveyed a trace of regret and bitterness, "The situation collapsed too quickly, Sea God Island's elimination was too hasty, and many things... have not had time to really start."

"Sea God... It's Sea God who wants to kill Deep Sea Demonic Whale King!" Yuni conveyed strong mental fluctuations, with fear and lingering fear. " As for why I am here..." Yuni conveyed deeper bitterness and confusion, "I was completely shattered by the power of Sea God Island... I thought I was dead and completely destroyed."

Bi Ji's eyelashes trembled again.

"But for some reason... my consciousness, a bit of my true spirit, seems to have been... forcibly maintained and reorganized by a force that I cannot understand." He once again emphasized the bizarre and uncontrollable nature of his "rebirth".

"When I regained some vague perception, I found that I... seemed to be blocked by some kind of force, and then taken aboard a human ship. I was confused, and I only remembered that... it seemed that I was first taken to Extreme North, and then moved to Sunset Forest. Finally... it seemed to be attached to... the bottom of a certain human vehicle, and Doudou turned around, and then... ended up here in a daze."

Bi Ji's face looked even more tired, and the complex emotions in her eyes almost overflowed. Although it was amazing, her experience was bizarre and her special status still made her feel uneasy.

Di Tian was silent for a longer time.

The wind on the lakeside seemed to have stopped, and only the lake water of Lake of Life was rippling gently. In Di Tian's golden eyes, it seemed that the universe was coming and going, and the stars were turning upside down. The information provided by Yuni was still full of impact and doubts.

"Deep Sea Demonic Whale King has fallen" - This confirmed some of his previous perceptions. A deep sea overlord, an existence close to a million years old, has finally fallen.

"It fought side by side with Demon Whale King's subordinates and tried to rescue Demon Whale King" - this shows that this beast was indeed deeply involved in the drastic changes in the deep sea, and its stance was biased towards Demon Whale King's side.

The information that "some of the strong men under Demon Whale King are willing to follow him" is very important. This means that this beast does have a certain reputation, ability or specialness in the old department of Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, which can make those unruly deep sea strong men willing to consider following him in times of crisis. This is mutually confirmed with the previous statement of "wanting to persuade and integrate the old department", showing his leadership potential.

"He was strangely reborn after being completely killed by Sea God" - this is the biggest mystery.

"Bizarre journey" - it seems absurd, but if you connect it with its "strange rebirth state" and "banned by some force", there is a possibility of tracking it.

Di Tian's gaze, like an invisible probe, swept over the mass of Yuni again. The value of this beast lies in knowing the details of the drastic changes in the deep sea, its possible contact with the remnants of the deep sea, and its strange "rebirth".

"Deep Sea Demonic Whale King... has fallen after all?" Di Tian whispered to himself, not much emotion could be heard in his tone, but the trace of imperceptible magnanimity showed that he was not indifferent. He looked at Yuni, the sharp light in his golden eyes became brighter. "You said, Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's men are fighting alongside you? But what can you do?"

His question was straightforward, with unquestionable scrutiny. Obviously, he did not fully believe what Yuni said about "fighting side by side" and needed a more specific explanation.
