If Apologies Worked

Upon seeing the powerful figures of the opposing side emerge, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, having succeeded in his attack, did not linger in battle. He plunged into the sea, and no matter how hard the others searched, they could not find even a trace of him.

The allied fleet had no choice but to continue its journey, and the entire army could only increase its vigilance with growing anxiety.

In the dead of night, when the sky was pitch black, the exhausted taxi drivers had just closed their eyes.

A mound of water, several meters high, rose from the sea, and a burly figure stood atop the crest, his shout breaking the silence of the night.

"Hehehe, Dahai Yujiro has arrived! You will all perish for my brother Hai Kun! Take this—the purest Water Tornado to capture the horse and ascend to the heavens!"

A thick waterspout rose from the seabed, tearing many warships to shreds.

Hearing the commotion again, Ning Fengzhi and the others were immediately awakened from their sleep and came out to meet the attack. Chen Xin unleashed a fierce sword aura with his Seven Kill Sword, but the sword light cut through the waves and hit nothing. Dahai Yujiro had already dived into the sea and fled far away.

Several days later, at dawn, the exhausted fleet was on edge.

Even Tang Chen, Gu Rong, and the others dared not relax their vigilance in the slightest, fearing that the other side might launch another surprise attack.

Another figure emerged from the waters ahead, gazing at the warship that had been kept on watch.

"Yay, yay... a bunch of pathetic land-dwelling humans. I, Yui Umitano, will now give you a taste of your own medicine."

Thick ink gushed out with the seawater, splattering the faces and heads of the taxi drivers on guard duty outside.

Even though Gu Rong, who was on guard, reacted, the other party was Ferocious Beast. By the time he prepared to give chase, the figure had already galloped away.

The fleet was constantly harassed along the way.

But in this vast ocean, the land-based Soul Master couldn't catch them at all. After they finished fighting, the opponents would disappear into the sea, as slippery as eels.

The leaders of the various forces were driven to despair, but they couldn't find a way to counter it. After all, even Titled Douluo couldn't stay submerged in the sea for long, let alone fight in the sea.

But it was precisely because of this that they understood how so many mysterious and powerful individuals could have suddenly appeared on Sea God Island.

Moreover, they never showed their faces during the war.

Qian Xunji's previous deduction has been truly confirmed: these guys who ambushed along the way are definitely Hundred-Thousand-Year Sea Soul Beast.

After enduring so much hardship along the way, the major powers realized that taking over Sea God Island would require considerable preparation.

Great Ferocious Land, within the Sea of Consciousness of Silver Dragon King.

At the moment of the nuclear explosion, Gu Yuena quietly slipped back and quickly pretended to be asleep.

She recalled the warning Gu Yue had given her before she left, grabbing her by the back of the neck. Who knew that not long after Gu Yue left, she would get a big surprise from him.

Gu Yuena felt extremely guilty. If Gu Yue found out what she had done, she would definitely beat her buttocks into eight pieces.

She closed her eyes tightly, her long silver hair falling down to cover her small face, and curled her body into a small ball, deliberately putting on a sleeping expression.

She had learned two pieces of knowledge from the book that Gu Yue had obtained, which were perfectly applicable to the present situation.

One reason is that as long as she falls asleep quickly enough, the punishment can't catch up with her.

Another is that you can never wake someone who is pretending to be asleep.

Gu Yuena felt that this quick-learning and application was perfect. As for what to do if she could dodge the first day of the month but not the fifteenth, she would just stall until Gu Yue's anger subsided.

Meanwhile, Gu Yue and the Goddess of Life, who was working hard, were stabilizing the spatial barriers of the small plane.

He noticed Gu Yuena's return and was a little curious as to why she had suddenly fallen asleep again.

In ancient times, Little Gu Yuena did indeed spend most of her time asleep, but during this period Gu Yuena was unusually energetic.

Gu Yue sense traversed the void across the sea, casually sweeping towards the direction of Sea God Island.

Even he was taken aback by this discovery; after all, hell on earth was no more than this.

Yellow fog blanketed the sky Sea God Island, and large numbers of fish with their white bellies floating in the distant sea were seen foaming at the mouth, their fates unknown.

Now he understood what had happened. He had just told her to tone it down, and the entire Sea God Island had been turned into this mess.

Gu Yue's face darkened, and under the resentful gaze of the Goddess of Life, he handed over all the work at hand to her.

He immersed his consciousness in the Sea of Consciousness and walked to Gu Yuena's side.

The silver-haired girl buried her face in the crook of her knees, curled up like a hibernating animal, and remained motionless no matter how much Gu Yue approached, even deliberately making even breathing sounds.

Gu Yue squatted down and looked at the little girl curled up in a ball with great interest, then reached out and turned her over.

The girl, who had been turned over, still kept her eyes tightly closed, her two small hands neatly placed in front of her, her delicate face tense, and even her breathing was deliberately kept extremely shallow.

Gu Yue found it amusing, so he reached out and gently pinched her pert little nose, even deliberately swaying it from side to side.

Gu Yuena's nose was pinched, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly. Her delicate nose twitched slightly, but she still tried her best to keep her eyes closed, maintaining an unwavering expression.

Gu Yue loosened his fingers, a smile playing on his lips, and deliberately let out a long sigh:

"Sigh, since she's really asleep, let's just leave it at that. We'll clean up after she wakes up."

After saying that, he concealed his aura and pretended to leave helplessly.

Gu Yuena was secretly delighted. She quietly calculated the time, opened her purple eyes a crack, and cautiously peered out.

The surroundings were quiet and deserted.

Gu Yuena patted her chest, quickly stood up, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief:

"Phew... They're gone? That scared me to death! Gu Yue wasn't lying to me..."

However, before she could finish her thought, a hand silently landed on her shoulder.

Gu Yuena's back stiffened, and a chill ran through her from the bottom of her heart.

She turned her neck with difficulty, stiffly turning her head one step at a time, like a stuck gear.

Gu Yue was standing behind her, watching her with a smile, his eyes filled with a dangerous and mocking amusement.

Gu Yuena forced a smile that looked more like a grimace, blinked her watery purple eyes, and hurriedly used her best skill:

"Oh dear... tonight is sunny and clear... hahaha! Gu Yue... no, Dad! Good Dad! Look, how about I give you a back massage and shoulder rub..."

Gu Yue didn't speak, but continued to look at her with a half-smile.

Meeting the increasingly dangerous gaze, Gu Yuena moved with lightning speed, immediately hugging him and begging for mercy:

"I'm sorry, Dad, I was wrong. I really know I was wrong. Please forgive me just this once."

"Ha, that's what you said before I left."

Gu Yuena felt her life was over and once again used her charm to try and break through Gu Yue's defenses.

But Gu Yue had anticipated this move, and seized the opportunity to grab her, placing her horizontally on his lap, and said coldly:

"If apologies were enough, what would be the point of having a butt?"

The crisp, pleasant sound of slaps echoed throughout the Sea of Consciousness. Even as a spiritual being, Gu Yuena could not escape the physical punishment of these slaps. Her pitiful pleas for mercy, accompanied by the sound of slaps, lingered for Jiujiu.

P. S.: As expected, it was written in a rush and the quality isn't great. Five chapters are still needed... qwq...
