Chapter 781 Making wedding clothes for others
When Kong fell into the belly of the Star-Devouring Whale, he almost thought he had entered the primordial womb sea once again.
The belly of the giant whale is like a world unto itself, with the boundless starry sky visible above and the tremors of the womb beneath one's feet. In the middle of the pinkish-blue sea, a whale comparable in size to the Fontainebleau ironclad ship is slowly swimming.
The young master lay several hundred meters away, motionless, seemingly still unconscious. After all, Brother Xu's kick was truly merciless.
Perhaps sensing the intrusion of a foreign object into its body, the whale in the sea suddenly increased its swimming speed, then burst through the wall and launched an attack on Kong and Navelette.
"It's up to you to hold them off for now."
Navelette stepped back a few paces, half-raised her scepter, and began to use the absolute control of the ancient dragon's authority over the water element to peel away the primordial sea water within the body of the Star-Devouring Whale, layer by layer.
This behavior was tantamount to sucking the marrow from the bones of the Star-Devouring Whale. The Star-Devouring Whale roared in pain and began to attack Vilet madly, but every attack was blocked by Kong.
The waters of the womb within the Star-Devouring Whale began to recede, the color of its entire abdominal cavity began to turn transparent, and even its offensive power weakened.
Everything is moving in the best possible direction.
But all of this... went too smoothly!
Kong no longer needed to go all out to deal with the attacks of the Star-Devouring Whale. He couldn't help but start to recall everything that had happened from the moment he prepared to enter the whale's belly until now.
It felt like the rhythm of these events was subtly in sync with every decision we made, and the feeling of having everything under control was actually more like being controlled by someone else.
Moreover, although he had never truly stood on the opposite side of Brother Xu, he had witnessed the ruthless methods he used against those identified as enemies.
But now that he and Navelette are making such a fuss inside the whale's belly, Brother Xu is completely powerless to stop them?
Is he outside right now? What is he doing?
"Kong! Are you daydreaming?!"
Paimon suddenly shouted from inside the Dust Song Pot, startling Kong, who was deep in thought.
Kong then realized that he had already used several sword techniques on thin air, and a "purple shadow" even flew past the young master's head in the distance, almost causing the Fools to lose another seat... uh, another seat.
"Hang in there a little longer, it'll be over soon."
Navelette thought Kong was tired, so she offered a word of comfort and continued to intensify her efforts to strip away the water from the primordial womb.
Kong nodded somewhat ashamedly, stopped thinking nonsense, and focused on defending against the attack of the Star-Devouring Whale.
In fact, at this point, the Star-Devouring Whale's attacks were already very weak. The dense attacks that resembled a rain of stars had not been used for a long time, and even its leaping movements had become powerless.
The scepter of Navilai behind him was retracted. "That's enough. We can go out now."
Kong sheathed his sword, hesitated slightly, and said, "Let's go out and talk to Brother Xu again. Although we have different approaches to saving Fontaine, I think we are on the same page. Besides, we can't really sentence Funina to death, can we?"
Navelette, recalling all that Fucarus had done for her, naturally nodded in agreement that she wouldn't actually harm Frynn.
"However... Xu Ning may not be as upright and selfless as he appears on the surface. I feel that every move he makes is full of hidden meanings, and he seems to have big plans. Although you have a close relationship with him, it is still best to be careful."
Kong was surprised and touched that Navelette, who always seemed aloof and rarely showed her emotions, would say such caring words to her.
“I will. But you’re wrong to say that my brother is upright and selfless. He’s actually quite petty and likes to take advantage of others, but he’s always been very good to his friends.”
As the saying goes, one should not interfere in the affairs of relatives. Villette knew he had said enough. If Xu Ning's identity and behavior hadn't been so strange, he wouldn't have said those words at all.
However, given the current state of affairs, it seems that what I said earlier was probably in vain.
Navelette remained silent, and together with Kong, helped the young master up and flew out of the giant maw of the Star-Devouring Whale.
As soon as they came out, Kong saw Xu Ning leaning comfortably against the Star-Devouring Whale, drinking from a gourd, seemingly unconcerned about what the two of them had done inside the giant whale.
This unusual sight left Kong somewhat bewildered. Turning to look at Vilette, he saw that the usually composed judge had veins bulging on his forehead, as if he were on the verge of exploding in rage.
"Please help this executive officer down."
The suppressed anger in those words was so palpable that not only Kong could sense it, but even Paimon inside the Dust Song Pot could hear it.
Paimon, who flew out of the Dust Song Pot, helped Kong and the young master step aside, and pointed to the ground for Kong to see.
Kong was shocked by what he saw and almost cried out.
The primordial sea of conception was already quite empty after the Star-Devouring Whale had drunk most of it. Now that the Star-Devouring Whale had been stripped of the water from the primordial sea of conception, its enormous size had shrunk to the size of a normal whale, making the primordial sea of conception seem even more empty... Empty my foot!
Where did all that primordial water from the womb that was just extracted from the body of the Star-Devouring Whale go?
Kong looked at Villette, then at Xu Ning. He now understood not only why Villette was suddenly so angry, but also why Brother Xu was so relaxed.
"What about the water of the primordial womb?" Navelette asked, barely suppressing her anger.
Xu Ning smiled and shook the Dust Concealment Gourd in his hand, and an overwhelming sound of tides came from the gourd.
"While we went in to strip away the waters of the Primordial Sea of Emptiness, you took the opportunity to collect them all into your gourd outside? You know perfectly well the significance of the Primordial Sea of Emptiness to this planet, what exactly are you trying to do..."
Xu Ning raised his hand to interrupt Villette, and said with a smile, "First of all, let me correct you, I am not the kind of despicable person who takes advantage of others in distress..."
Navelette glanced at the empty space around her and couldn't help but let out a cold snort.
"...And I wouldn't do something as silly as catching rainwater in a basin. I just invited this little guy to be a guest in my gourd for a while."
Kong then realized that the moment he and Navelette entered the whale's belly, Brother Xu had led the giant whale into his Hidden Cave.
During this time, the water from the womb that Vilet had separated was naturally all fed to the Hidden Cave.
When the three of them came out, Brother Xu sent the shrunken giant whale out of the cave. Throughout the whole process, he didn't even bend over once, and he took away almost all of the water from the fetal sea.
"You were planning to use me from the moment you entered the womb?"
