I would rather betray the gods

That morning, Yuzu washed up and went out as usual.

When he pushed open the door of the apartment building, he suddenly realized that he wasn't cold even without a coat.

Has summer really arrived?

He gazed at the rising sun, took a deep breath, and felt surrounded by birdsong and fragrant flowers.

Suddenly, a hand landed on his shoulder, interrupting his immersion in the poem.

He looked down at the hand and, seeing it was a stranger, asked slowly, "Who are you?"

You must know me!

Just then, another person appeared from the opposite side; it was the young thief who had been taken to the police station by Youzi a few days ago.

"No, you only stole a backpack full of stuff and you've been locked up for days? What kind of junk did you steal? How about I take you to a jewelry store to have a look?"

Yuzu spoke sincerely, genuinely hoping he would stay in there longer and truly repent.

"Hey, hey, what are you saying! Open your eyes and look at the person next to you, that's my older brother. With him protecting me, I can come out whenever I want!"

When faced with Yuzi's teasing, the young man directly invoked his elder brother's authority.

Yuzu snapped out of her daze and looked at the hand on her shoulder again, feeling a surge of disgust. She grabbed the wrist and pushed it away.

Ok?

Unexpectedly, the hand was as heavy as a boulder, and at the same time, an invisible pressure enveloped the pomelo layer by layer.

Oh... he's flexing his muscles. He's really strong; that aura is enough to instill fear in many people.

Yuzu thought to herself.

"Are you scared, kid? If you're scared, then come with me obediently."

The person with his arm around Yuzu's shoulder said disdainfully. This person was wearing sunglasses and had long, center-parted hair like those in the 1990s.

But it must be said that his arrogant and domineering face is very suitable for this hairstyle, giving people a roguish and unapproachable feeling.

Yuzu was curious to see what kind of trouble they could come up with, so she nodded...

Inside a luxurious karaoke room.

The man in sunglasses clapped his hands, and several waiters brought in a lot of drinks and food, filling the coffee table to the brim.

Then, the man in sunglasses handed Yuzu a drink while explaining his purpose.

His name is Wei Long. The young man that Youzi caught in the station is called A Gui, one of his many superhuman underlings.

Hearing A-Gui's description, he was impressed by Youzi's abilities and hoped that Youzi would join his team.

Putting everything else aside, Yuzi had indeed heard of the name Weilong. This person had quite a background and was influential in both the legal and illegal worlds in L City. He was a top-tier player in the field of weapons and ammunition.

It seems that Wei Long's success is definitely related to his superpowers; he can be considered to be making a living through his abilities.

However, Yuzu finds the combination of a middle part and karaoke so tacky and unbearable.

Is it a fondness for movies or a limited perspective? Yuzu doesn't know.

"Come on, friend! My older brother is a second-tier Star Realm ability user. Following him is definitely the right choice!"

Ah Gui cheered him on from the sidelines.

"Second tier, what does that mean?"

Yuzu is more interested in ability levels.

So Agui explained it in detail.

The world of superpowered individuals has always had its own order, with different levels corresponding to the strength of each individual's abilities.

The abilities are divided into twelve levels from low to high, each corresponding to one of the six senses. Levels one and two correspond to the first sense, levels three and four to the second sense, and so on.

In other words, ordinary people can only use ordinary senses such as sight and hearing, and are not even considered to be at the first level.

Those with supernatural abilities can utilize the power of the stars to develop their six senses to a greater extent. The degree of development varies, resulting in different levels of abilities, hence the division into six tiers and twelve levels.

"Oh..." Yuzu nodded thoughtfully. "Huh? How strong would a Starry Sky Tier 12 ability user be?"

Ah Gui burst out laughing when he heard this. "Those kinds of beings are extremely rare, even if you add up the entire Earth. I've heard that at that stage, they are basically comparable to the rulers of a planet, that is, gods."

Suddenly, Ah Gui's expression changed mysteriously, and he said again, "It is said that there are even seventh-order ones, which appeared in ancient times."

"So what if it is?"

Yuzi became very interested.

"The flesh, the body, becomes holy!"

Ah Gui answered, enunciating each word clearly.

Holy crap, that's amazing!

Yuzu listened with complete fascination.

"Hey, hey, hey, what are you two doing there?"

Wei Long was very unhappy about being ignored.

Immediately afterwards, he pulled Ah Gui in front of him, twisted Ah Gui's ear, and snarled, "I told you to tell stories here, huh?"

Ah Gui knew he was wrong and begged for forgiveness with a mournful face.

Getting back to the main point, Yuzu asked with a serious expression, "You said you'd let me follow you, so there has to be a reason that would make my heart flutter."

"If you're straightforward enough, then I won't hide anything. The reason is simple: all the superpowered individuals in L City are under my tutelage. With me protecting them, no one will cause trouble. Of course, just give me a small fee every month for my efforts; how much depends on your ability."

As he spoke, Wei Long waved his hands, revealing a large, gleaming gold watch on his wrist.

"No wonder Mr. Gui was so ruthless that day; he must have been in a hurry because he couldn't afford the trouble fee. I'm a slow-paced person and don't want to rush things, so I'll just forget about it."

Yuzu looked at Agui and shook her head like a rattle drum.

"What? You mean you want to start your own faction?"

As he spoke, Wei Long unleashed the power of the stars | Human Path - Red Fire |.

A ball of flame appeared in his palm, hissing loudly.

|Immortal Technique - Undying Yang Fire|

Yuzu didn't hesitate and immediately used the same move.

However, he was not good at controlling the heat, and the flame in his hand was so red that it even eclipsed the light in the room.

Wei Long was secretly startled upon seeing this, but being a worldly man, he remained calm.

Ah Gui, sitting in the middle, was quite different; the contrast between the flames on both sides was enough to make his jaw drop.

He suspected that the ball of fire in Yuzu's hand could melt the ball of fire in Weilong's hand into something.

Just then, Wei Long's cell phone, which was on the table, rang.

Yuzu glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was Dai Tianhe.

Perhaps feeling the unprecedented pressure, cold sweat trickled down Wei Long's forehead. He was so focused on Yu Zi's every move that he didn't have time to answer the phone.

With her heart set on the Milky Way, Yuzu nodded towards the phone to signal him to answer, and then extinguished the flame in her hand first.

Of course, at this time he was still unaware of how secretive the White Galaxy's Planetary Project was.

To avoid causing global panic, superhumans of Wei Long's caliber only know that the White Galaxy is a superhuman alliance, and have no idea what the alliance's ultimate goal is.

Seeing this, Wei Long also calmed down, then picked up his phone and answered, "It's Mr. Dai. What's up?"

"Oh, I see. I've been too busy lately and forgot to tell you. A new God-King envoy has recently been appointed to your area. If you have time, go and pay him a visit. Also, make sure to say hello to most of the people you know in that area, just to avoid any misunderstandings. If anything goes wrong, neither of us can afford the consequences!"

On the other end of the phone, Dai Tianhe's tone was full of pressure.

"Yes, yes, I will certainly do as instructed. How should I contact that special envoy of the God-King?"

Wei Long's smiling face was pressed against the phone screen, and he spoke in a humble tone.

"That person's name is Chang Shengyou, nickname Yuzi. I've sent you his phone number on WeChat."

After saying that, Dai Tianhe hung up the phone.

Wei Long was stunned. He had already investigated Youzi to stand up for his underling, A Gui, thinking she was just an employee of some literary studio. Turns out, he had gotten himself caught in the crossfire and caught the biggest crocodile at that!

What is the concept of a God-King's Special Envoy? It is someone who can communicate directly with the gods in heaven, and is also the face of the gods to the outside world. Who would have thought that such a position could be held by a mortal?

The thought that he had essentially offended the gods made Weilong feel so powerless that his heart almost stopped beating.

The phone slipped from his hand against his will, and then, as if by magic, slid to Yuzu's feet.

Yuzu picked it up for him, intending to return it directly, but after hesitating for a moment, she took advantage of the unlocked screen to dial her own number, "Let me save your number, maybe I can use it later."

The thought of what the future holds makes Wei Long want to cry.

Just like that phone, how could it happen to roll to the feet of Yuzu? It must be the will of the gods!

He firmly believed that the gods had their eyes on him.

"You've already done what Mr. Dai asked you to do ahead of schedule. I'm still very busy, so I'll leave now."

After saying that, Yuzu returned the phone to the table and strode away.
