I would rather betray the gods

With the end of the era of "You Are Not a Fish," the Pisces Palace is hosting its first top-secret meeting with the participation of the God-King.

The special meeting room has seats of varying sizes and is fully furnished, giving people the feeling of being in a family gathering.

Therefore, the attendees are the core of the Pisces Palace. They may never meet with Yuzu, but they are definitely top pillars in a certain field of Pisces Palace.

Because of them, the Pisces Palace, during the God-King's vacuum period, still firmly controlled the three thousand six hundred realms.

There wasn't a central spot here, so Yuzu chose to sit on a sofa next to a flower stand.

Without any pleasantries, he went straight to the point. He wanted everyone to share their thoughts on how to protect their loved ones and how to deal with inner demons. He would accept anything that was feasible and effective, and implement it after the meeting.

And so, people spoke individually or in small groups, and the meeting room was filled with constant voices.

Yuzu approved all the feasible and insightful suggestions.

The head steward would record all the decisions he made.

"Second Master, have some water to soothe your throat."

Banlan sat down next to Youzi and, seeing that he looked thirsty, handed him a cup of hot tea.

okay!

Yuzu gladly accepted the teacup made of flowing stone.

The material of the cup is unknown. When heated, it activates the light trapped within the material, thus creating a flowing light effect, which is also aesthetically pleasing.

"Let me ask you a question. If you encounter difficulties, which of these big shots is the most reliable to turn to?"

The pomelo quietly asked the variegated one.

Banlan looked around the room again and again, pondered for a long time, and replied, "Do you see that old woman in the corner? Before the time of Zifeiyu, she refused to be the Pisces God King three times. Finding her is no less important than finding Mr. (Capricorn)."

Yuzi looked closely and saw that not only was her hair completely white, but she had only said one sentence the whole time: asking Banlan if she had any toothpicks so she could pick her teeth.

The old woman was dressed in black, and she was tall and had an elegant figure. It was easy to see that she must have been a great beauty when she was young.

"How old is she this year? Why does she always wear her monocle and stare at the glass ball in her hand?"

Would it work to talk to her? Yuzu was full of doubts.

"That's over 95,000 years old, which is equivalent to 95 years old for an ordinary person."

"What's a glass ball? That's Saint Knight Star, one of the smallest planets in the universe. It has everything—flowers, plants, birds, and beasts. Seven or eight out of ten rare creatures in the Milky Way originated from that little planet, including your mount, Second Master."

Banlan looked at the pomelo as if it were a country bumpkin.

puff!

Yuzu sprayed tea all over the floor, stared at the Holy Knight Star for several seconds, and asked, "What's it called again?"

"Just call her Grandma Holy Knight."

Banlan poured tea back into the pomelo.

"I meant my mount."

Yuzu's eyes were glued to Grandma Holy Knight's "glass ball".

That's narrow-minded!

Large beads of sweat dripped from her freckled forehead. She had just finished admiring her second master when he threw a tiny, petty insult at her.

"I've told you so many times, Second Master can't control your mount yet. When the time is right, we'll naturally take you to see it."

Banlan's face darkened, and he glanced at the head steward beside him, hoping that he would also water Youzi's heart as it longed to see its mount.

"I won't record this little incident."

The head steward was shrewd; he cleverly used his position to decline, offending neither side, and smiled slightly.

At the same time, Yuzu burst out laughing.

It turned out that the Holy Knight Granny was holding the Holy Knight Star to look at it. Through the Holy Knight Star, she saw Yuzu watching her, so she struck a pose and smiled at Yuzu, showing her elegant demeanor.

Yuzi was at a loss, so she simply smiled back as a sign of respect, but her smile was even more unpleasant than a pig's squeal.

Thus, as they discussed and debated, the Pisces Palace, following the council meeting, implemented a series of security measures specifically targeting the God-King's beloved, as well as external policy decisions...

All signs indicate that the inner demon's three-dimensional body was reshaped in the Aries Palace.

However, given the gravity of the matter and the diplomatic relations between the two God King Palaces, Pisces Palace must not request a search from the Twelve God Kings Covenant Group without substantial evidence. Otherwise, Aries Palace would be found to be harboring a demon, and the three thousand six hundred realms below could easily hide such a demon anywhere. The Covenant Group would be like searching for a needle in a haystack, and no one could bear the subsequent responsibility.

Therefore, Pisces initiated a de facto pact meeting, aiming to increase the responsibility for eliminating inner demons. Those who fail to eliminate inner demons can be regarded as public enemies of the galaxy, etc., forcing Aries to hand over their inner demons.

Of course, if it is initiated, it has the right to reject it and veto the content through a vote.

Thus began a covert power struggle between Pisces and Aries, initiated by Pisces in a pact meeting.

First, it depends on whether it can be initiated. As long as the five parties' Divine King Palaces agree, including the initiating party, the convention talks can be held as scheduled.

Therefore, both palaces sent envoys to persuade other divine palaces, each with the following reasons.

Pisces Palace: Once the inner demons grow, they are not only the tribulation of the God King Pisces, but the army following them also threatens the entire galaxy.

Aries Palace: Every god-king of all ages has his own tribulations. God-kings should experience their own tribulations, not make a big fuss about it and waste resources. Only god-kings who successfully overcome their tribulations can be considered true god-kings.

In fact, as early as the time of Zi Fei Yu, the gods had already experienced the power of inner demons, so there was an unwritten agreement that anyone who encountered an inner demon had the responsibility to kill it.

Aries is now going back on its word, and anyone with discernment can see why.

However, Yuzi's lack of merit makes this contest full of unknown variables.

After a round of power struggles, only Capricorn, Cancer, and Pisces (the main sign) agreed to the convention talks, making a total of three parties, still two short.

If it weren't for Capricorn being Zifeiyu's teacher and Cancer being Zifeiyu's little fanboy, Pisces would probably have lost even more miserably in this round of power struggle.

At night, on the rooftop balcony of the Pisces Palace, Yuzu found the head butler gazing at the stars.

"You seem to be in a bad mood. Are you still upset about Latina?"

Yuzu patted the head butler on the shoulder and handed him a can of beer.

The head butler accepted the beer without hesitation, after all, it was rare for his second master to drink, so he was giving him face!

"Second Master, my unauthorized release of Latina is unforgivable. I will accept the punishment myself once the treaty negotiations are completed."

As he spoke, the head steward drank first as a sign of respect.

Yuzu smiled slightly, leaned against the railing side by side with the head butler, and looked at the breathtaking starry sky and sea in the distance. She said, "No need. If it were me, I would also let go of my beloved without hesitation."

Furthermore, if you hadn't let her go back then, I would have been in a difficult position. After all, she was your girlfriend. Wouldn't I be in a dilemma, where I couldn't handle the situation properly and it would be even worse if I didn't handle it at all?

"There's no such thing as good or bad, just follow the rules." The head butler spoke with an iron fist, but was deeply moved inside.

"The mere mention of following the rules gives me a headache. I didn't expect the other God King Palaces to be so disrespectful to me. Sigh~ I, a mere mortal, am even more aware of my own limitations in the Half-Heaven realm~"

Whether it was to change the subject or to make fun of himself, Yuzu took a big gulp of beer.

"It's all up to human effort. I firmly believe that one day, Second Master, this God King, will be recognized by everyone and will become the King of Kings predicted by the Star Gazer."

The title of "head butler" is not an exaggeration.

He then recounted the details of the convention talks.

Most of the God King Palaces rejected Pisces Palace's request because the gods were prejudiced against Yuzu's origins and wanted to watch Yuzu fail her tribulation and step down, so that Pisces Palace could welcome a God King who met their standards.

The meeting can only be initiated within three days. Once the deadline has passed, no further applications for similar meetings can be submitted. For the remaining two days, Pisces should focus on breaking through the two God King Palaces to gather enough votes to hold the meeting.

Which two houses?

Seeing that there was still hope, Yuzi hurriedly asked.

First, there's the Taurus Palace. The God King Taurus is known as the most upright and incorruptible god in the entire galaxy. He should be able to set aside personal emotions when faced with matters of great importance.

However, his stubbornness is also well-known, so Yuzu needs to lower herself and visit him in person.

Secondly, there's Scorpio. It's obvious that this power struggle involves too many personal grudges. God King Aries must have secretly communicated with the other God Kings in his personal capacity, since among all the God Kings, only Yuzu is not a friend of the other God Kings.

Scorpio, the God King, has always been unconventional, and he wouldn't care about offending Aries if he wanted to.

To get past him, you need to find Granny Paladin. Granny Paladin was his childhood mentor, and the two have a certain connection.

The head steward explained the breakthrough methods one by one.
