I would rather betray the gods

The two brothers, the elder one with green peppers, has a low alcohol tolerance; after a bottle of beer, his face turns as red as a grapefruit.

The second brother, Qinghe, was able to keep up with Lao Xu's pace, and in the blink of an eye, he had drunk two or three bottles without any problems.

If it weren't for the fact that their bone structure looks exactly like they were made from the same mold, no one would dare to tease them about whether they are brothers.

According to Qinghe, his alcohol tolerance is being built up; he has frequently attended various drinking occasions over the years, which has given him a lot of capacity. His brother, on the other hand, has been "delayed" because he dislikes socializing due to trivial matters.

There's nothing to hide in a team, and fueled by alcohol, he started to speak frankly. Green Pepper lowered his head and smiled bitterly, which was tantamount to acquiescing.

The young woman, who is approaching forty, used to have a happy family, but due to the breakdown of her marriage, she now lives alone with her son and daughter, and her life is very burdensome.

The various disappointments in his life have made him unwilling to socialize now.

At this point in the story, Youzi and Yuebai exchanged surprised glances: Who was he talking to all day, so absent-mindedly on his phone?

"Come on, come on, everything is provided by the factory, let's eat and drink as much as we can."

Perhaps Qingjiao sensed something was off about the two of them and was afraid they would use his phone to chat and talk about it. So, he, who usually becomes listless at the sight of alcohol, actually encouraged everyone to eat and drink more.

Everyone naturally agreed to the free meal, and toasted each other.

"Yuebai, even though you're a girl, Uncle Jiao won't let you have your way today. Come on, let's open another bottle. I'll drink as much as you want!"

As he spoke, Qingjiao handed Yuebai a bottle of wine, his face as red as a red light, indicating that not giving in was tantamount to giving in.

As a one-star Grand Ruler, Yue Bai rarely drank excessively, but when faced with Qing Jiao's request, she hesitated for only a moment before readily agreeing.

Then it was Yuzi's turn. After Yuebai took the wine bottle, Qingjiao groped for the bottle and looked at him.

At this moment, Yuzu also changed her usual style. Before he could even focus his gaze, she took a bottle herself and started drinking first...

The clock on the wall ticked away, and the lights in the factory area went out one by one until only the room where they were left had a sliver of light shining through the window.

Without the noise of the machines, the vast factory area was exceptionally peaceful, with the chirping of crickets in the corners being particularly loud.

However, the night was still and the wind was restless. Tonight, the factory not only had a party with people staying out all night, but also some uninvited guests.

On the roof above the window of the Baolong Group, a dark shadow blends cleverly into the night.

The camouflage was so perfect that even an owl flying by would crash into it.

At this moment, through the window viewed from a shadowy perspective, Yuzu and her friends were either sprawled on the table or sprawled on the floor, as the party slowly came to an end.

At that moment, the shadowy figure made a sound.

Several shadowy trails sprouted from beneath it, climbing along the surface of any object to the opposite window, and then trying to find a gap in front of the window to squeeze inside.

Logically speaking, how thick could a shadow-like shadow be? No matter how tight the window gaps are, they would be wide open in front of it, but its sharp point just wouldn't fit through, and trying many positions was all in vain.

"hiss?"

The dark figure on the roof gradually lost patience and let out a soft, impatient question.

"See? I told you I couldn't find the gods of this planet. Turns out they're all hiding and doing things in secret."

A voice that sounded like Yuebai suddenly spoke, but it probably wasn't her, because Yuebai was lying on the sofa in the opposite window, fast asleep.

"Fortunately, you never gave up searching for the native gods of this planet."

A voice that sounded like Yuzu's, but it couldn't be him, could it? Yuzu, sitting by the window across the street, was already fast asleep, slumped over the table.

who!

The shadowy figure was startled. While retracting the videotape, it looked around and saw two people standing in the distance on the roof.

It really is pomelo and moon white?!

At this moment, their bodies were glowing faintly, and their slight smiles made it clear that they seemed to have everything under control.

"The soul has left the body." The dark figure quickly understood what was happening.

That sound...

Upon hearing the shadowy figure speak, Youzi and Yuebai exchanged glances and exclaimed in unison, "Xu Xiangsheng?"

Seeing that his identity had been exposed, the shadowy figure simply waved his hand and threw off his disguise, revealing himself to be Xu Xiangsheng!

Unlike back on Earth, where it was visible even in the dim light, Xu Xiangsheng was now dressed in a brand new long robe, looking quite spirited. However, the 'black chain' that appeared and disappeared on his right hand indicated that he could not break free from it even after returning to his home turf.

"No wonder I could no longer find your presence; you had changed your attire to conceal it."

The moon shines brightly as it surveys Xu Xiangsheng.

"I should have realized it was you. You traveled all the way to Earth for the sake of the prophecy, not to mention today is the first day of the [Baolong Group]'s operation."

The pomelo is another topic altogether.

Xu Xiangsheng did not respond to either of them. Instead, he drew his sword with his left hand, pointed it at the sky, and made his move.

Suddenly, a curtain of light fell from the sky, enveloping the entire factory like a birdcage.

Various runes flowed across the shimmering wall. Without needing to interpret their meaning, Yuebai understood from their form that this was a Soul-Suppressing Spell, which had a strong suppressive effect on her and Youzi, who had separated from their original bodies.

He clearly assumed that both of their original bodies were already numbed by alcohol, and that returning to their original bodies now would be worse than not returning at all, which was indeed the case.

"Your Highness, do you know why he didn't target anyone who might be the Holy King, but instead specifically targeted you?"

As the Soul-Suppressing Incantation gradually took effect, Yuebai felt as if she were carrying a heavy load, and her voice lacked strength.

Why?

Yuzi has a strong foundation, so he is less affected than Yuebai.

"Because an unawakened Holy King is like an infant in swaddling clothes, protected by the Heavenly Dao. If his intentions are impure, he will suffer backlash. Therefore, he only dares to target you, the key to finding the Holy King."

No matter how strong the talisman's influence was, it couldn't suppress the imposing aura emanating from Yuebai's mouth.

Perhaps his vital point had been struck, Xu Xiangsheng's brows furrowed, and he slashed out with his sword at Yuebai.

The sword energy, like a rainbow, fell straight towards the top of Yuebai's head.

With Yuebai's current strength, it was impossible for him to withstand this attack. In the blink of an eye, Youzi appeared in front of Yuebai, instantly activating his demigod form and simultaneously clamping the air blade tightly between his hands.

To ensure the safety of the surrounding factories, he endured all the force, and the slight aftershocks caused his long hair to flutter.

What!

Xu Xiangsheng could not hide his shock.

He had countless ways in mind that the opponent could dodge the sword energy, but none of them were like Yuzu's.

Just as he was surprised, Yuzu leaped onto the top of the light shield and lifted it upwards with both hands.

Because the pomelo didn't want to harm the factory, it pushed it aside and went outside to fight.

"drink!"

The pomelo grimaced and struggled upwards, its veins bulging.

What does this mean? It's like uprooting a willow tree... but the pomelo actually moved?

Seeing the shimmering shield slowly lift off the ground, Xu Xiangsheng was so shocked that sweat beaded on his forehead. "Just who are you?!"

Earthlings.

Yuzu never wanted to call himself a god-king.

There are ways to break spells, and once broken, the effect will dissipate. His lifting technique is also a unique one.

The light shield, lifted off the ground, was like a stack of building blocks. As it lost its compressive force, it began to collapse from the bottom until it completely crumbled.

The falling fragments of light do not cause any damage to the physical objects; they simply create a few sparks wherever they land, and nothing more.

However, judging from Yuebai's constant dodging, this thing can cause real damage to things at the soul level.

"Damn, what the hell is this thing?! It hurts so much when it lands on me!"

Suddenly, a complaint came from a corner of the ground.

There should be no one else here, so regardless of whether it was Xu Xiangsheng or Youzi's side, everyone looked in the direction of the sound.

Is it a green bell pepper?!

Everyone was surprised to see Green Pepper running away with his head in his hands.

The fragments of light were harmful to him. Could it be that he was also in a state of astral projection? Could he also have astral projection?

Yuzu muttered to herself, then glanced out the window.

Indeed, the real Green Pepper was fast asleep on the table next to his real body, still in the same position as when they were drinking and chatting, with his arms around his real body's neck.

If I'm not mistaken, it's likely that when his soul left his body, he had a green pepper arm 'hanging' around his neck, and their souls came out together.

Because the windows were closed and the only way to get around was through the stairwell, Green Pepper, who was experiencing a dreamlike journey for the first time, finally emerged in a daze, just as the light shield shattered.

"Moonlight White!"

Yuzu hurriedly called out to Yuebai, thinking to herself, "This is terrible! To the soul, the falling fragments of light are comparable to shards of glass falling from a great height!"

Yuebai understood, and with a flash of silver light, she appeared in front of Qingjiao, grabbed his shoulders, and was about to take him away.

Buzz~ Buzz~

As a result, the two of them swayed in place like phantoms, without moving an inch.

Ok? ? ?

Yuebai was shocked; she couldn't even lift him!

It's worth noting that she once used her evasive skills to pull three adult elephants out of a fire at the same time (she could actually pull more, but those pulled had to have physical contact with her)!
